During those hours, Huo Chen quietly stood next to her like the time she did the same to him before.

It was till the butler returned and broke the silence, “Ma’am, the young master asked me to give this to you.”

“What is it?” Wen He asked as she did remember Gu Jinzhi mentioning this—that she had to visit his house at least once—before he left the world for good. She thought he was joking but it turned out he was serious.

“Okay, well, let’s go quick.”

Maybe—maybe that champ wants me to do something for him.

“I’ll take you there, ma’am.”

Apparently, Gu Jinzhi wants me to revisit the villa at the city. I came here once before.

“One moment, please,” said Jinzhi’s butler as he marched to a room.

I wonder what is going on ...

Thought Wen He with anticipation as she remained seated at the living room before the butler returned with a well-crafted wooden box.

“This is it.”

Huh?

She opened it.

What the hell is this?

“No!” She backed off promptly, nearly toppling the entire case, “I can’t take this!”

What the hell is wrong with Gu Jinzhi? Aren’t these—these—the certificates to all his properties? There’s not only Golden City but other entertainment centers he has established across the nation. There are lands and cars too? Private properties from overseas?

No!

Wen He stuffed the entire box back into butler’s grip but the butler dodged her forced return.

“Ma’am, this is what the young master has ordered.”

“But...”

I still don’t want it. In what right mind of people would assign these to a random ex-employee? Wait... Wen He, you are right—they would do this only when ...

“Gu Jinzhi ordered you to give all these to me on the day before departure?”

“Correct.”

“How come?” Wen He’s face froze as she sank into the sofa, muttered, “He ordered you to do this before we left? It’s as if—as if he knew that he will never be able to return from the beginning...”

“Actually, ma’am...” The butler sighed, “The young master requested me to hand not only these to you, but also a secret...”

Wen He lifted her head, only to see the agonized expression of the butler.

“The young master is meant to not live longer than 30 years of his life.”

“What?” She bolted up from the sofa, “What do you mean?”

“I’m not sure if the young master has mentioned this to you before—regarding the case of him being imprisoned in the dungeon by Lin Kang, 10 years ago...”

“I know that.” Wen He listened, her fingers restlessly fidgeting with her dress, “Why?”

“Well—after he’s been imprisoned, Lin Kang fed him a certain drug.” The butler started sobbing as he continued the ultimate confession, “That drug is said to be a certain kind of medication that could kill cancerous cells to cure the patient but—the experiment went horribly wrong. Not only did it kill cancerous cells, it killed healthy cells in the body too. The young master was almost dead when I barged in to rescue. We have been looking for a cure...”

He took a deep breath and resumed, “The drug still remained in his body while destroying his health bit by bit. No matter how much medication he had taken, it was only a matter of time until he died.”

“...”

Wen He felt no strength in her legs as she slid down onto the sofa again, “How come...”

No wonder he never really did reveal everything about his past...

The reality is that hard to take in.

No wonder he takes lots of pills everyday, those which he claimed to be vitamins...

And no wonder—no wonder he took that video and—these properties...

He knew...

Gu Jinzhi knew from the beginning...
