Chapter 343: Chapter 344: A Word "Love

"I’ve never liked to interfere in others’ lives," the man squinted, gazing at the distant, dazzlingly bright sky, "but when it comes to my brother, there are some things I must remind you... he doesn’t like people lying!"

"I know." Gan Yuan’s fingers tightened around the folder, "I... I will find a way to tell him."

Up to now, Huangfu Qi had only uncovered her background, and he could feel that this might just be the tip of the iceberg.

What exactly was going on between Gan Yuan and Huangfu Jue was known only to Gan Yuan, therefore, it was most appropriate for her to resolve the situation.

"I will find a way to delay him until evening. Before he comes back, you’d better think clearly about how to tell him the truth, otherwise..." Huangfu Qi turned around, the rebellious look in his ink-black eyes already replaced by depth, "I will personally hand over the information to him. I believe that is not an outcome you would want to see, and I... don’t want to either."

Gan Yuan’s lips trembled slightly as she nodded gently.

"I know."

"I’m leaving."

Huangfu Qi’s gaze left the sky and turned back, falling on the mansion behind him. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, he could clearly see Gan Tang sitting in the living room playing chess with Sherry, the little one’s half face bathed in sunlight, her expression focused.

"That child... looks a lot like my brother."

Gan Yuan did not explain, nor did she say anything. Since they were able to find out about her background, she believed they must surely know about the child as well.

By that time, Gan Tang had turned his face and saw Huangfu Qi standing with Gan Yuan. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes. He set down his chess piece and walked to the open window.

"Uncle Huangfu?" Gan Tang was slightly stunned upon meeting Huangfu Qi’s gaze, then quickly resumed his smile, "I know you, you are Uncle Xiaoqi."

Huangfu Qi stepped down the stairs, locking eyes with him across the space.

"I know you too, you are Gan Tang."

To shield Gan Tang, do not prune, do not cut...

That name!

Perhaps it was because they both had similar blood running through their veins, or perhaps it was because his face resembled Huangfu Jue so much, the little one did not feel at all unfamiliar with him.

"Mommy is going out, would you like to come in for lunch?"

"Maybe some other day, your uncle has more important things to do today." It had not been easy to deceive Huangfu Jue and get him away, and he had to hurry back to the Imperial Palace to keep that clever man from getting suspicious, "In a few days, your uncle will come to see you again. I’m sorry for rushing over, and I forgot to bring a gift."

No matter what the adults had done, the child was innocent. Huangfu Qi’s tone was indulgent and tender towards Gan Tang.

"Your visit is the best gift." The little one spoke with a smile, "I’ve heard a lot about you from Uncle Huangfu, and I admire you a lot."

Uncle Huangfu?

Huangfu Qi turned his face to look at Gan Yuan, who was not far away.

Even now, the child still calls his brother uncle?

Gan Yuan caught his questioning gaze but did not answer, merely lowering her eyelashes, casting a faint shadow on her face with her long lashes.

Ever since Huangfu Jue had appeared, she had hardly had a moment’s peace, especially these last few days she had been restless, with a hint of dark circles under her eyes.

Noticing that her face was visibly more haggard than before, Huangfu Qi’s heart softened.

A woman as proud and defiant as her, forsaking everything to bear a child for a man, wandering the world, even stooping to work as a hotel waitress to make a living...

What could the reason be, if not the word "love"?
