Black Lotus - Chapter 18

Gu Family Cooperation Branch Office in Nation F.

Lu Yun was looking with a serious face at the stack of Gu Yansheng’s photos which she sent someone to secretly take.

In the photo, Gu Yansheng and Shen Luoan were holding hands. At the bottom, there was another photo of Tang Shuo and Wen Niannan. Lu Yun couldn’t sit still anymore after she saw this.

A man in a dark blue suit walked in. The man raised his hand and pushed the gold-framed glasses on his nose, and asked in a low voice, “Mrs. Lu, are you looking for me?”

“The affairs in this branch office should be mostly settled. You, Yuanfeng, can take care of the rest. I will arrange a flight back to Nation M.”

Zhou Yuanfeng asked with some doubts, “Isn’t the contract with the Xinyuan Corporation not settled yet? Mrs. Lu, why are you going back so early?”

Lu Yun shook her head and sighed, “I will leave these to you. If I don’t go back, the kid will push my son-in-law to someone else.”

“Yes, Mrs. Lu, I will make the arrangements.” Zhou Yuanfeng’s eyes flashed with a strange look, and he calmly answered.

After watching Lu Yun board the plane, Zhou Yuanfeng picked up his phone and dialed a number.

“Hello?” Gu Yansheng’s lazy voice came from the other side.

“Your mother is coming back. She will stay by your side for a while this time. The branch office’s business is mostly complete. Please be careful. Aunt returned earlier this time specifically for you and Niannan.”

“I know I know, I’ll be careful.”

Listening to Gu Yansheng’s impatient tone, Zhou Yuanfeng reminded him helplessly, “Why do you have to offend your mother for Shen Luoan? It’s no good for you. No matter how much you want to mess up, she won’t let Shen Luoan enter the doors of your house. “

“I know, and I will let my mother accept him. As long as my mother sees Wen Niannan’s true evil, she will agree to divorce.”

“Have you ever thought about it? Are you doing this because you like Shen Luoan, or are you just wanting to repay his kindness?”

It was silent after Zhou Yuanfeng suddenly asked such a critical question.

“Your mother is not easy to fool, so please take care of yourself.”

After that, Zhou Yuanfeng hung up the phone, and Gu Yansheng on the other side was lost in thought with a cold face.

It was almost noon when Wen Niannan woke up, and he couldn’t open his eyes in the dazzling sunlight. He just got up and sat back with a pain in his stomach.

He went home without eating much because of the conflict last night, and today he didn’t eat much breakfast since he slept in.

After cleaning, he changed his pajamas and left the room, wondering why the butler Uncle Xu didn’t wake him up.

As soon as he walked downstairs, he saw Uncle Xu and Aunt Lan standing aside with a panic expression, and when seeing Wen Niannan, they looked nervously in the direction of the living room.

Wen Niannan walked to the living room in confusion and smelled smoke as soon as he approached. After seeing the impatient person sitting on the sofa drinking tea, his face suddenly became pale and froze in place.

After hearing the sound of someone coming downstairs, Gu Yansheng raised his eyes to look at Wen Niannan, his glance was as cold as frost. He put down the cup in his hand and stared at him.

After a while, he saw that Wen Niannan didn’t come over. He frowned and said impatiently: “Are you a snail? Why don’t you come here? How much longer do I need to wait for you?”

Wen Niannan didn’t want to go over, and his body couldn’t stop shaking. The last time he was here arguing with Gu Yansheng, he got beaten so badly that he was sent to the hospital. He was afraid that he would be beaten again if he said something wrong.

Gu Yansheng saw that he still didn’t come, so he was just about to speak again when he saw that Wen Niannan was looking at him with horror and was stepping backward.

Suddenly he thought of something and laughed, “Wen Niannan, you… are you afraid of me?”
