Black Lotus - Chapter 50

As he walked down the stairs, Gu Yansheng deliberately made some loud noises. Wen Niannan looked back, and the smile on his face disappeared.

Gu Yansheng pulled over a chair and sat down on the other side of the table. After glancing at the food on the table, he looked at Wen Niannan. When he saw the somewhat red and swollen eyes, his hands stopped in midair.

Wen Niannan saw that Gu Yansheng was looking at him and lowered his head even further. He didn’t want Gu Yansheng to notice his eyes.

“Your head is about to be in the bowl. It’s not like we just met for the first time. Who are you doing all this acting for?”

With a loud slam, he threw the chopsticks onto the table and left, leaving Wen Niannan behind in a daze.

Gu Yansheng didn’t know why he was always so angry as soon as he saw Wen Niannan. In a sullen face, he went to work.

When the employees of the company saw him enter the building emitting a horrible aura, no one dared to stay close to him, afraid that he might let out his anger of one of them.

They all guessed that it was because of the recent video, which explained why Shen Luoan hasn’t come for a while either.

On his seat, Gu Yansheng loosened his tie and opened his computer to start dealing with the company’s business, but after a while, he was distracted by his own thoughts and irritably closed the computer back down.

Suddenly, without a knock, the office door was pushed open. Thinking that it was his secretary Xiao Li, Gu Yansheng was just about to scold the person, but then he saw Zhou Yuanfeng walking in.

Zhou Yuanfeng walked in with a cold face and slapped his palm on the table and said sternly, “Gu Yansehng, are you out of your mind? That video, you just let it sit there and start spreading? Do you think your mother will buy all this crap you just caused? Have you considered the consequences? How many times has she told you about the proper image of the company? If she learns about this, it will be over for you!”

He was crazy. He had the chance to tell someone to take the video down as soon as it appeared on the internet, yet not only did he just let it spread, but he also made it even worse.

“It is meant for her. She is the one that forced me into this unpleasant marriage. She never saw the real side of Wen Niannan, the vicious and deceptive side of this seemingly well-behaved person. I want her to witness that she is wrong!”

“Vicious? You are talking about Niannan?” Zhou Yuanfeng stared at him not knowing what to say for a moment.

“Wen Niannan is not the kind of person you think. He is very simple and sensitive. You are always good at looking beyond the surface of people who work for you, but why not your partner?”

Seeing that even his best friend was speaking for Wen Niannan, Gu Yansheng was very disappointed, “Simple? You are the one that’s being seduced by his outermost appearance. All of you are protecting him, saying how good he is, and introducing me to him, but all I have seen was his evilness. He is trying to eliminate the most important person to me.”

Zhou Yuanfeng knew that Gu Yansheng was referring to how Niannan accused Shen Luoan of plagiarism at his birthday banquet, and Gu Yansheng thought Shen Luoan was badly wronged from this.

“Either way. I tried my best to keep this matter away from your mother in Nation F. You’d better settle this before your mother finds out, or else, I won’t be able to help you anymore.”

Zhou Yuanfeng looked at Gu Yansheng with a hatred glance and angrily left the room while making a loud bang as he closed the door behind him.

Gu Yansheng slammed a fist on the table angrily, “Damn it!”
