As Old Master Shang enjoyed those antiques, he naturally also loved things like plum blossoms, orchids, bamboo, and chrysanthemums, which represented an elegant taste. In another month, it would be Old Master Shang’s birthday. Dongfang Yu suggested that Shang Qing give this Purple Heart Orchid to Old Master Shang as a birthday gift. So he hoped Shang Qing could personally dig up this Purple Heart Orchid and give it to her grandfather. Naturally, Shang Qing couldn’t go alone, so organizing an outing was perfect. By the way, they could have fun, and then they could dig up the Purple Heart Orchid, which was simply killing two birds with one stone. As for where that Purple Heart Orchid was, Dongfang Yu naturally knew. He told Shang Qing that he wouldn’t go with her and her friends because, after all, he didn’t know them, and besides, if everyone went, Gu Qiaoqiao would certainly go. To avoid awkward encounters, he wouldn’t go, but he would wait for her at that location and would contact Shang Qing when the time came.

Finding an opportunity to dig up that Purple Heart Orchid would be a very easy task, so Shang Qing agreed happily. But Dongfang Yu warned Shang Qing not to tell Chu Chengfeng or Gu Qiaoqiao anything about him. Because they would definitely misunderstand him. And it would spoil their enjoyment. By that time, he would secretly take her to dig up the Purple Heart Orchid, and then he would quietly leave. Shang Qing was actually very moved in her heart. She felt that Dongfang Yu was very considerate, thinking of everything for her, even though Dongfang Yu’s attitude was a bit vague now, but likewise, there was no other girl around Dongfang Yu besides her. In this aspect, Shang Qing was very satisfied. Moreover, she hadn’t graduated from university yet, and perhaps after graduating, things would look different. She thought she would gradually persuade Dongfang Yu not to oppose the Gu Family or covet their things anymore, as he was already so wealthy, and she was pleased to find that her persuasion seemed to have taken some effect. At least for more than a month, she hadn’t noticed any conflicts between Dongfang Yu and the Gu Family. It seemed that the two had already reached a kind of mutual disregard. Therefore, Shang Qing felt at ease organizing this spring outing, knowing that as long as Dongfang Yu didn’t show up, there would be no conflict with Gu Qiaoqiao, and they could do their own things without interfering with each other. Deep down, Shang Qing still hoped that Dongfang Yu could go with her, after all, the chances for them to be alone now were actually rare. Every time Dongfang Yu went to the Shang Family, he was pulled to his study by her grandfather, either for appraising this or that, or playing chess, drinking tea, and chatting... Sometimes Shang Qing found it strange. Although she was always doubtful about Dongfang Yu’s age, she felt that when Dongfang Yu was with her grandfather or those elders, he seemed particularly at ease and always had a lot to say. However, this didn’t mean he didn’t understand those trendy things; on the contrary, he was very knowledgeable about them. As long as he wanted to speak, he could discuss anything in detail, which is why Shang Qing couldn’t let him go. Their time together was scarce, yet occasionally, Dongfang Yu would still take her out, and sometimes, she could see something in Dongfang Yu’s eyes.
