Imperial Treasure-Chapter 927 - 561: A Glance at Gu Sansi

The long dress of Bluewater Bright Painting, soft yet form-fitting, draped over a not-so-thick gray coat like an ink painting she had melded into.

She was tall, nearly as tall as Sui Yi, wearing flat shoes, her figure slender and slight, her shoulders sharp like a blade, as if she could disappear with a gust of wind.

Trail of the iris, distant partridge; perhaps this is the feeling it evokes.

She turned her face.

About nine meters away from Sui Yi by the trash can.

A distant gaze, a voice...

"A very beautiful eagle."

How to describe that voice. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Vast and distant; it was the first time Sui Yi heard such a far-reaching and cool voice. The tone was gentle and elegant, yet you could feel her distance.

It was boundless and profound.

Somewhat familiar.

Sui Yi met her eyes.

Her eyes seemed to have a similar... strange or bewildered glimmer.

But they were both people who deeply hid their thoughts, not revealing them easily, so to outsiders, they appeared as two distinctly exceptional figures standing suspended above the glass rooftop, gazing at each other from nine meters apart across the brilliant void.

Both seemed thoughtful.

How many people unconsciously stopped in their tracks?

Because Mo Ke also squinted his eyes leaning against The Gate, quietly watching the two of them.

Until the eagle landed on the glass, gently tapping it with its wings.

Sui Yi withdrew her gaze, her slender, nearly translucent fingers lightly traced a few strokes on the glass, seemingly a word, and the eagle flew away.

At the same time, the woman’s gaze finally did not fall on Sui Yi but lingered on Mo Ke.

"Mo Ke, you’ve grown up."

Cough, cough! That statement was indeed quite... eerie.

"Yes... grown up," Mo Ke’s tone elongated a bit, as if reminiscing, or perhaps with some obscure thoughts.

The woman slightly nodded, looking at someone behind Mo Ke.

"It seems the situation was so unusual earlier that it made you turn off your phone sounds, Muxiu."

A gentle reproach.

Her words caused Jiang Muxiu’s expression to change slightly, and he took out his phone to find several missed calls from several people.

"Did Mother come?"

"What do you think?" The woman raised her brows lightly.

Jiang Muxiu nodded, stopping his gaze on Sui Yi for a moment before walking towards the woman.

He stopped three steps in front of her, bowed his head in gratitude: "Apologies, it was my oversight, thank you, Sister Sansi."

Courteous, solemn, respectful.

This was probably a side of Jiang Muxiu that no one usually saw.

Beneath that noble facade, there were inevitably people whom he needed to treat with respect and caution.

--Just now, in front of the department head and secretary general, he was rather self-assured.

However, Sister Sansi...

The term ’Sister’ originated because she was one or two years older than him, though it didn’t show in her appearance. What truly astonished people was her name.

Gu Sansi, a name that resonated like thunder.

Despite being a senior at the age of 22, Gu Sansi possessed a youthful beauty and physique, yet also carried a profound spirit not belonging to someone merely 22. It seemed as if time had yet to start aging her yet already granted her a profound wisdom and penetrating insight, making just a glimpse of her evoke a kind of melancholic admiration in many.

Just Gu Sansi.

Jiang Muxiu left, his pace somewhat quickened.

After all, it was his mother calling him; Jiang Muxiu, who always respected his mother, naturally wouldn’t dawdle.

And Gu Sansi faced everyone alone.

Of course, not everyone dared to let their gaze fall on her body beneath the coat.

Her presence today was not solely for Sui Yi but also to entertain guests, hence the long dress adorned with six parts classic elegance, three parts grace, and one part casual ease.

Bai Renyuan stepped forward, smiling slightly: "Sansi, I thought you wouldn’t come today."

Though always gentle, there was more sincerity and... cautiousness compared to before.

Mo Ke suddenly remembered an article about Xiao Big BOSS’s "cautious as walking on thin ice."

This description had once become a trending topic.

Now, Bai Renyuan also found it necessary to approach Gu Sansi with "caution as if walking on thin ice."

"I just happened to have time, so I came over."

Gu Sansi replied indifferently, and for some unknown reason added, "But it was fortunate I came."

What did that mean?

Zhan Yu and others looked at Bai Renyuan.

It couldn’t have been directed at Senior Bai, right? Rumor had it that Senior Bai had always been...

But something felt amiss.

Was it directed at Mo Ke?

However, no one knew, for Gu Sansi had already left.

Bai Renyuan did not follow but stood there watching her back.
