Chapter 177: Riddled With Mysteries

“Didn’t you say that there was only one?”

Chu Sihan took the pen and glanced at Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou snorted and turned around.

Lu Sheng chuckled and stood up, teaching Chu Sihan how to use the fountain pen.

Chu Sihan listened attentively, but his gaze unconsciously fell on her red lips. He gradually fell into a trance.

“Lord, do you understand?”

After sharing with him how to use it, she looked up and asked.

“Ah? Oh.” After regaining his senses, Chu Sihan was stunned for a moment before hurriedly nodding. “Yes, I understand.”

Lu Sheng smiled at him. “It’s good that you understand. Take it as a thank-you gift for giving me the jade hairpin!”

Although, compared to the jade hairpin, a fountain pen was nothing.

Her words made Chu Sihan, who was secretly happy to receive her gift, lose his mood.

However, he felt relieved after feeling down.

He would treat this as a token of love.

“Jade hairpin?”

Lu Zhou narrowed his eyes. “What kind of jade hairpin?”

Hearing his question, Lu Sheng quickly took out the jade hairpin.

“Master, this is it.”

The moment Lu Zhou saw the jade hairpin, he suddenly sneered.

Then, he said something baffling, “Indeed, it’s destined.”

“This jade hairpin... what’s wrong?”

Chu Sihan looked at Lu Zhou blankly.

“This jade hairpin and the jade bracelet on my disciple’s hand were personally created by your grandfather. The jade hairpin was given to me and the jade bracelet was given to your father. After that, we gave both of these items to your mother.”

Chu Sihan looked at Lu Sheng in surprise, only to see her roll up her sleeves and reveal that jade green bracelet.

Lu Sheng explained guiltily, “Actually, I don’t have any cousin getting married. I just want to know where this jade hairpin came from.”

Chu Sihan smiled at her silently, not intending to pursue the matter.

He turned his head to look at Lu Zhou and asked, “I wonder what is your relationship with my father? Also, why did you give that jade hairpin to my mother? In the end, why did this jade hairpin appear in the Chu Mansion?”

He did not understand.

Lu Zhou was twenty years younger than his father, and so was his mother.

Why did he give the jade hairpin to his mother?

“Um...”

Lu Zhou blinked and cleared his throat. “Actually, I’m your grandfather’s disciple. Your father is my Senior Brother, and your mother is my Senior Sister. As to why I gave the jade hairpin to your mother? Of course, it’s because she treats me like her own brother.”

If he said that he was the same age as his father and that they were rivals in love, wouldn’t this kid doubt his identity?

“As to how this appeared in the Chu Mansion?” Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and said, “You’ll have to ask your father.”

He could only deceive the clueless Chu Sihan. He naturally couldn’t deceive Lu Sheng, who knew his background.

However...

Why would Master like Mdm Chu?

Moreover, the way he looked at Mdm Chu didn’t look like he was looking at his ‘lover’!

Besides, wasn’t Chu Sihan’s grandfather Old Master Chu?

Also, wasn’t it normal for the gifts given by Master and Chu Sihan’s father to appear in the Chu Mansion?

With Chu Sihan’s intelligence, he shouldn’t have asked such an idiotic question!

The only explanation was that Chu Sihan was not a child of the Chu family.

Of course, these were not important. What was important was why the jade bracelet that was originally given to Master’s Senior Brother would end up in Master’s hands?

Lu Sheng narrowed her eyes. She felt that there was something wrong.

After all, this jade bracelet was given to her personally by her master on her eighteenth birthday.

Since Master’s Senior Brother and Senior Sister had Chu Sihan, it meant that Master was the one who was rejected.

Shouldn’t it be the jade hairpin that was returned? Why was it the jade bracelet?

How strange!
