Chapter 1114: I Am Thinking

Shen Qianshu’s face fell.

Lady White said, “Both little gatekeepers, we are not dangerous or threatening. It is not necessary for you all to discriminate us this way.”

“From what I see, you all are dangerous and threatening. The reviews of you all from the outside world are not so good,” Shen Qianshu said.

“That is Yang Ping ruining our reputation,” Lady White said. “She hid from us that she wanted to find a puppet. This was something that we had discovered recently. Hence, when you all were having the selection, the headquarters even had their power disrupted. She wanted to play tricks and control everything to get the ending that she herself wanted. The Roses are indeed split up now. We are having internal friction all along. We need a gatekeeper with prestige.

“There are also benefits to being our gatekeeper. The real gatekeeper is different from Yang Ping. She will have absolute power in the Roses. Regardless of whether they are convinced in their hearts, they have to comply with orders. It was exactly because Yang Ping had always been the representative of the gatekeeper that she was unable to convince the ma.s.ses. Hence, there were so many internal disputes. Several forces had their own ideas, and each had their own interests, which resulted in the messy situation of the Black Rose now. We have to clean up. Secondly, by being our gatekeeper, you can clean up internally. As for Yang Ping, you all can clean up the strategic gateway.”

Lady White said, “Please believe me. Make use of our internal forces to track Yang Ping. It is more effective than you all working with any department. Now that she is on the run outside, aren’t you all worried about how she may harm your family? Fang Hongxiu has been in a coma, and she’s unable to regain consciousness. If you are our gatekeeper and you give me a command, I can give you all the antidote. But if you are not, you cannot get the antidote unless you defeat the Roses.”

Ye Ling sneered. “If you beg someone to work together, you should have the att.i.tude of someone who’s begging.”

Lady White readily followed what he had said. “I’m sorry. Little gatekeeper, I don’t have any att.i.tude. I am just stating a fact. The plane is waiting. You all can discuss with each other for a while.”

…

Lady White understood the situation and was tactful. She did not push them too much.

Shen Qianshu sat on the desert outside the small town and looked at the sun setting down the hill inch by inch. It was very pretty watching the sunset in the desert. It was also very tragic. Ye Ling stood beside her as both of them watched the sunset together.

The sundial had pulled their shadows very long.

“I don’t feel like going,” Shen Qianshu said.

Perhaps it was because of Yang Ping that they did not have a good impression of the Roses all along. They even hated the Roses so much and kept thinking that it was a place where they would get killed. The appointed gatekeepers also did not have long lives.

Whether it was Aventura or Fang Hongxiu, it was like they had been cursed.

She only wanted to go home and be with her son. She wanted to properly watch her son grow up. She also wanted to be a jewelry designer and devote all her time to the career that she loved the most.

She wanted to watch Tong Hua fall in love, marry a wife, have children, and enjoy life carefreely.

Ye Ling had been silent. Lady White’s tone was not considered threatening, but her meaning was also very clear. If not for the gatekeeper, there were many matters which would not make others put in their utmost effort.

“Master, why haven’t you been saying anything?”

Ye Ling said, “I’m thinking.”

“What are you thinking of?”

“Whether to go.”

Shen Qianshu raised her head and looked at him in disbelief. “Is this a question you have to think?”

Ye Ling nodded his head.

One was sitting while the other was standing. The way that they thought was different. They wanted to reach the same goal but had different means.

“What concerns do you have? Can you tell me?”

“I feel that if we enter the Roses, perhaps we won’t be able to come out,” Shen Qianshu said. “Who knows whether Black Rose is conspiring with Lady White? What if they are colluding?”
