435: Curiosity Killed The Cat

Curiosity Killed The Cat

Jiang Qi didn't look at Yu Gangan. Instead, she stared at her toes as she continued walking forward, "When my father was alive, my brother never went to see him. But, my father loved him and worried about him. He hoped he could be happy..."1

Yu Gangan listened quietly, thinking that she simply wanted to talk to her about Fang Zhihan.

"Xiao Qi?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Yu Gangan and Jiang Qi immediately lifted their heads and looked at the approaching person. A woman in a fur coat was looking at them in surprise. There was a bright smile on her face as she walked towards them.

This tall, fashionable beauty and this familiar scene, Yu Gangan immediately remembered who the woman was.

Gu Shuling: the woman that called Fang Zhihan, 'Brother Han', and the woman that Fang Zhihan said he didn't know.

Jiang Qi and Yu Gangan watched at Gu Shuling approached them and a surprised expression appeared on their faces.

This was the first time Yu Gangan saw a cold, arrogant expression appear on Jiang Qi's face.

She was no longer the weak, dopey and cute little girl that resembled a white flower.

"Xiao Qi, what a coincidence. Are you also here for the hot springs? Let's enjoy it together," Gu Shuling invited warmly.

But, Jiang Qi declined coldly, "Sorry, I came with my brother and my brother enjoys his privacy. He doesn't like to be around strangers."

She then pulled Yu Gangan away.

But, Gu Shuling stopped her and looked at her with a pitiful expression. She looked weaker and more harmless than the little white flower that was Jiang Qi, "Xiao Qi, I thought we were friends."

"Sorry."

Holding onto Yu Gangan's hand, Jiang Qi rushed away anxiously.

After a fair distance, she let go of Yu Gangan's hand and said, "Don't tell my brother that I saw that woman."

Yu Gangan was dumbfounded.

She had seen Gu Shuling twice and both times were coincidental like this.

But, even after two encounters, she still didn't know who this woman was.

"Who is she? Do you hate her?" Yu Gangan asked.

"I don't hate her, but...my brother does. I don't want my brother to be unhappy and I don't want him to think that I'm always hanging around with her. I don't want to have anything to do with her," Jiang Qi said in a hurry. She was so nervous, her voice began to stutter, "I don't want my brother to ignore me..."

It wasn't easy for her to repair their relationship. She didn't want to start all over again.

"Why does your brother hate her?" Yu Gangan questioned.

"Because her mother married into the Gu Family and caused the death of..."

Jiang Qi almost blurted out something, but when she realized she was saying something she shouldn't, she immediately covered her mouth.

Yu Gangan blinked and continued to look at her, gesturing for her to continue.

But, Jiang Qi did not dare to look at Yu Gangan as she retreated, "It's nothing. Let's not talk about others anymore. Let's go back and enjoy the hot springs..."

Yu Gangan stood in the same spot and said calmly, "Telling me bits and pieces will only make me more curious. If I'm curious, I will naturally ask your brother, and when I do, I will mention that you and I ran into..."

Yu Gangan shuffled back over and looked at Yu Gangan pitifully, "Sister-in-law."

Yu Gangan smiled, "Curiosity killed the cat."

Jiang Qi hesitated for a moment and said carefully, "I'll tell you then. But, don't tell my brother that I told you this."
