Black Lotus - Chapter 59

“Protect?”

Zhou Yuanfeng mocked coldly. He grabbed the laptop to his side and opened a loaded tab to show Tang Lunxuan. “This is an image posted online yesterday. Do you know how much Wen Niannan has suffered already because of your brother’s existence? The closer he gets to Niannan, the more harm it will cause.”

Tang Lunxuan looked at the photo on the computer screen. In the photo, Tang Shuo smiled exceptionally brightly. His eyes were full of love when he looked at Wen Niannan. Both of them looked content, and Wen Niannan looked like this was where he should belong.

He could see that his younger brother was smiling from the bottom of his heart. He looked away and retorted, “Tang Shuo just wants to be by Mr. Wen’s side. He didn’t mean to cause him these troubles. Tang Shuo loves him very much, and I don’t want to cruelly separate them.”

“Oh? I never thought that Mr. Tang would be so soft-hearted. I just want to kindly keep you aware of this. As for if you or Tang Shuo takes it seriously, that’s up to you two, but… I grew up with Gu Yansheng, and I know him the best. I can guarantee you that he would not let Tang Shuo go easily, so it is best to remind your brother as well…”

Zhou Yuanfeng didn’t expect Tang Lunxuan to be so stubborn and short-sighted. He had said what needed to be said, so he was ready to move on.

Just as he took a few steps away, he suddenly noticed someone coming from behind. He reflexively grabbed the person’s arm and twisted it to his back.

“Ouch… Let… go. It hurts!”

Tang Lunxuan heard that Zhou Yuanfeng was hinting him something in the words, so he wanted to stop Zhou Yuanfeng to tell him more about what might Gu Yansheng do, but unexpectedly, he got pushed against the table and was seized from behind.

“Tsk tsk, why such a gentleman is so irritable? Want to attack me again by surprise? I still remember last time you stepped on me!”

“No no, you got me wrong. I wasn’t trying to attack you. I just want to ask you to make yourself clear.”

Zhou Yuanfeng not only kept his ground but even exerted more strength. He arced the corner of his mouth upwards and sneered, “How you are so weak? Even weaker than a woman and still want to attack me? I’m afraid that you are the one that will be beaten.”

“What! You bastard! You are more like a woman!” Tang Lunxuan’s face was flushed with shame from what Zhou Yuanfeng said. He was struggling hard but couldn’t move at all. His face became redder and redder, from both anger and embarrassment.

Seeing that the situation might go out of hand soon, Zhou Yuanfeng released his hands and glanced at Tang Lunxuan, “I looked at the materials that you sent me already. I think your company is very suitable for us to cooperate, and the terms can be further discussed when  Mrs. Lu comes back.”

Zhou Yuanfeng was about to walk outside the door but stopped and turned back. He said to the person behind him, “Also… Mr. Tang, I hope that we don’t have to make a fuss for unnecessary reasons. Mr. Gu is well-known for his vengeance in the industry. You’d better consider the consequences thoroughly.”

Tang Lunxuan couldn’t refute this dazzling threat even after being called out loud and clear. He could only suck it up.

“As long as your company doesn’t take the initiative to disrupt the peace, the cooperation will be very pleasant. Mr. Zhou, there’s no need for you to threaten me like this.”

“That’s good, hope we will have a great time.”

He glanced at Tang Lunxuan with a pair of deep eyes, and walked out, closing the door behind him.

Tang Lunxuan rubbed his red wrist and stared at the door angrily. He wanted to scream and curse but didn’t know what to say. His hand was trembling in anger.
