The four bodyguards were all gold-rank. This was to prevent another kidnapping.

  Seeing that his young master had the intention to go up the mountain, Ji Fei took a step forward and said, “Young master, it’s already late and the mountain road is not easy to walk on. It’s better to wait until daybreak before going up the mountain.”


  Gu Yan glanced at the mountain in front of him. He would not have wasted half a day’s effort if he didn’t have to find the location of this mountain.

  Right now, time was life to Fu Tingyu.

  He was afraid that if he was too late, the poison would spread to his internal organs. By then, even if he found the medicinal herbs, it would be useless.

  Ji Fei continued, “Young master, we can rest early. We can wake up early tomorrow and go up the mountain. We won’t waste any time.”


  Gu Yan also understood that it was not a wise move to go up the mountain at night. “Let’s rest at the foot of the mountain for the night first. We’ll wake up early tomorrow and go up the mountain.”


  “I’ll go and prepare dinner.”


  Ji Fei turned around and left.

  They searched for a long time before they found this place. By the time they arrived, it was close to dinner time and there was not even a single person on the road.

  They could only prepare food by themselves.

  Fortunately, they had brought all the food and tools so it was easy to prepare some simple food.

  Gu Yan took out his phone and called Fu Tingyu.

  After he dialed the number, the call was picked up in a short while.

  “How are you now? Don’t work too hard during this period of time. I’ve already reached the foot of the mountain. The location is really difficult to find so I’ve wasted a lot of time. Otherwise, I would be on the mountain by now.”


  As soon as the call was picked up, Gu Yan opened his mouth.

  “I’m fine. What mountain? Why is it so hard to find?”


  Fu Tingyu was carving a wooden sculpture. When he heard the phone rang, his first reaction was that his lady called. He hurriedly picked up the phone without even looking at the caller ID and answered the call directly. In the end, when he heard Gu Yan’s voice, his gaze darkened.

  “This mountain doesn’t have a name. That’s why it’s so hard to find. I’ll go up the mountain tomorrow morning and be a herb gatherer for once.”


  The herbs that Gu Yan needed were all bought from the market. The last time he went up the mountain, he knew that the herbs wouldn’t grow on that mountain when he saw the environment of the mountain.

  That was why he said that he would be really going up the mountain to pick herbs this time. It was a challenge for Gu Yan as he was born with a golden spoon.

  “There might be no signal when I go up the mountain. You won’t be able to contact me. Don’t worry, I have a few bodyguards with me.”


  Gu Yan was afraid that Fu Tingyu would suddenly contact him and not be able to connect with him after he went up the mountain. He was scared that Fu Tingyan would be worried so he reminded him.

  Fu Tingyu listened to what Gu Yan said and put down the agarwood in his hand. “Okay. You just have to try your best.”


  There was no need to say any polite words between Gu Yan and him.

  “By the way, Qin Shu didn’t manage to talk to you last time. Did she call you in the past two days? What happened to you two?”


  Fu Tingyu asked in confusion, “Last time? What do you mean?”


  “She called you that night when you were unconscious. Didn’t Shi Yan tell you?” Gu Yan thought that Shi Yan had told him. This time, he asked him because he wanted to know if Qin Shu and he had reconciled.

  “What did she say?” Fu Tingyu finally realized that the lady had called him that night. Thinking about it, it was normal. He suddenly left and she didn’t even bother to ask. All his efforts in the past had been in vain.

  “I don’t know. Shi Yan picked up the phone.”


  Fu Tingyu hung up the phone when he heard that. He wasn’t worried that Shi Yan would tell her that he was unconscious because he knew that he wouldn’t.

  When Shi Yan entered, Fu Tingyu raised his head and looked at him with his pitch-black eyes.

  Shi Yan felt a chill down his spine. Lord Fu’s gaze was a little scary. Under the cold gaze, he walked to the desk and stood still. He said carefully, “Lord Fu, Miss Xu is here.”


  Fu Tingyu asked coldly, “She called that night. Why didn’t you tell me?”


  Shi Yan was stunned at first but he quickly realized that Lord Fu was talking about the night he passed out.

  He was a little confused. “Young Master Gu didn’t tell you? I thought Young Master Gu had already told you.”


  Fu Tingyu frowned. “What did she say?”


  “She asked if you were still angry and wanted to have a chat with you,” Shi Yan replied carefully with his eyes on the floor.

  Did she want to have a chat with him?

  He was already unconscious, how could he pick up the phone?

  Fu Tingyu looked down at his phone and opened his contact list. The first person he saw was Babe.

  After looking at it for a long time, he moved his finger over and pressed Babe’s name.

  A few seconds after he dialed the number, he hung up again.

  “Tingyu, are you busy now?”


  Xu Wei’s gentle voice suddenly came from the door.

  Xu Wei waited outside for quite a while but didn’t see Fu Tingyu come down, nor did she see Shi Yan come down, so she came up on her own.

  Shi Yan turned his head to look at Xu Wei, then at Lord Fu. He consciously took a few steps to the side sensibly.

  Xu Wei walked in and saw Fu Tingyu in front of the desk, as well as the agarwood on the table. Seeing the rough outline of the carved wood, she could only guess that it was a person.

  “Tingyu, I didn’t know that you knew how to sculpt wood. This is agarwood, right? Agarwood is a rare medicinal herb. It can be used as a decoration and it is also good for health.” Xu Wei’s voice was filled with surprise.

  Fu Tingyu saw that the screen of his phone had already darkened. He placed the phone on the desk and looked at the agarwood. He had used his free time to sculpt it. Looking at it now, he still couldn’t see anything. If he wanted to finish sculpting it, it would take a few months.

  For him, there was enough time.

  Shi Yan glanced at Lord Fu. It felt as if he didn’t hear Xu Wei’s words. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

  Xu Wei spoke for a while but no one answered. She stood there awkwardly for a moment. Then, she took another step forward and was stunned when she saw the sugar figurine on the right side of the desk.

  The sugar figurine was a man and a woman. Both of them were in the position of a dance move.

  She recognized the face of the sugar figurine at a glance. It was Fu Tingyu.

  She had never seen Fu Tingyu smiling but the sugar figurine was smiling. His smile was very shallow but it was very good-looking. Compared to his usually expressionless face, this was much better-looking.

  That woman was very similar to the woman she saw in the company. Her smile was bright and attractive and her facial features were so exquisite that people could not help but be jealous.

  Fu Tingyu placed the sugar figurines of him and the woman on the desk in the study. What did it mean?

  Xu Wei looked at Fu Tingyu and saw him looking down at the agarwood. She asked tentatively, “Tingyu, your sugar figurine looked a lot like you. Which famous master made it? I also want to make a sugar figurine of myself.”


  Fu Tingyu raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Wei. There were no emotions in his dark eyes. “Miss Xu, do you think that his sugar figurine looks very good?”


  “Yes, why? Don’t you think it’s good?” Xu Wei didn’t understand what Fu Tingyu meant. Since it could be placed on the desk, it meant that it was good. Otherwise, why would it be placed in such a prominent position?

  “Miss Xu is very knowledgeable. Can’t you tell that the person who made this sugar figurine came from the streets and it’s not by a famous master? There is a famous fondant cake maker in China who designed a chinese-style fondant cake. He won the first prize at an international fondant cake competition because of his ancient-style characters.”


  At this point, Fu Tingyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Wei. “Miss Xu, you should know about this famous person, right?”
