“What’s so good about fireflies?”


  Fu Tingyan left after saying that. He didn’t return to the gazebo but walked towards his room instead.

  Qin Shu took a look at the fireflies in the grass and thought that they looked like the stars in the sky. They were quite beautiful.

  She glanced at the gazebo and walked over.

  Inside the artificial mountain.

  Fu Tingyu stood tall and upright. His black suit blended into the night.

  There was only the flickering flame from his cigarette in the dark.

  When the cigarette between his fingers burned out, the man who hid in the night finally moved. He stepped out of the artificial mountain and left.

  Outside the courtyard wall

  Shi Yan was leaning against the car door. His figure was lean and tall. He crossed his arms over his chest and held a cigarette between his fingers. He looked at the wall in front of him with his head tilted. It had been quite a while since Fu Tingyu had gone in.

  What kind of master would climb over the wall instead of using the front door of his own home?

  The moment Shi Yan saw the fourth master climb over the wall, he had the feeling that the fourth master was not here to bring Qin Shu home. He was here to kidnap her.

  Just as Shi Yan was fantasizing about the fourth master’s plan, a vigorous figure jumped down from the top of the wall and landed steadily on the ground.

  The fourth master did not kidnap Qin Shu.

  Shi Yan threw away the cigarette, extinguished it with his foot, and went up to Fu Tingyu.

  “Fourth master.”


  “Let’s go back.”


  Fu Tingyu said concisely and walked towards the car behind Shi Yan. Fu Tingyu opened the car door and got in.

  Shi Yan looked at the fourth master, who had already entered the car. Fu Tingyu looked like he was in a good mood, which was different from Shi Yan’s expectations.

  Qin Shu returned to the gazebo. Before long, the old madam asked butler Fu to send Qin Shu home.

  The old madam thought that little Yu would rush over if he learned that Qin Shu had come to the old residence.

  To the old madam’s surprise, her grandson didn’t show up.

  She did not keep Qin Shu for too long, because even if little Yu did not come, her grandson would definitely be worried if Qin Shu stayed for too long.

  On the way back

  Qin Shu sat quietly in the back seat of the car and looked out the window at the night view. She was glad that Fu Tingyu did not just barge into the old residence. Because that would only make the old madam hate her even more.

  At the Bright Garden

  Qin Shu pushed open the car door and got out. Butler Fu also got out of the car. He looked like he wanted to make sure that Qin Shu enters the Bright Garden safely.

  He was a man of few words. His face was cold and stern, testimony to his experience.

  Qin Shu nodded to Butler Fu and then stepped into the Bright Garden.

  Butler Fu watched Qin Shu walked into the building before leaving.

  Ning Meng waited at the door. When she saw Qin Shu, she immediately went up to her.

  “Young madam, why didn’t you come back with the fourth master?”


  When the fourth master learned that Qin Shu had been taken to the old residence by the old madam, he hurried over.

  But Qin Shu came back alone.

  Qin Shu recalled how the man hid behind the artificial mountain and used fireflies to lure her over. She could not help but smile. “I was chatting with grandma. Is he in the study room right now?”


  “Yes, the fourth master went straight to the study room right after he came back. He doesn’t seem angry,” Ning Meng said in a low voice.

  “I’ll go check on him.”


  Qin Shu walked briskly and walked to the study room on the second floor.

  Ning Meng scratched her head in confusion. She had thought that there would at least be some drama tonight.

  But there’s not even a hint of drama.

  –

  Qin Shu walked to the door of the study room and pushed it open. She saw Fu Tingyu, who was sitting at the brown writing desk, right away.

  He had taken off his black suit. He wore a white shirt, which made his already excessively fair skin appear even whiter.
