Black Lotus - Chapter 83.1

On the bed, Wen Niannan was looking outside at the moon, unable to fall asleep.

Remembering the scene he saw of Gu Yansheng with Shen Luoan, his body tightened and quickly buried himself inside the blanket.

What should I do… What should I do… Should I mention divorce first, or should I continue this fragmented life for the sake of my dad’s company?

Nian Nian… both the Gu Family and Lu Family helped your family before…

Helped your family before… Helped your family…

The person’s tears under the cover of the blankets slipped from his face to the pillow. Forcing himself to not let anymore tears come out, he fell asleep as he cried.

In the study room, Lu Yun was calling Zhou Yuanfeng with a serious look on her face.

“Go arrange a meeting with the Qiyue Group tomorrow for me. I want to meet him personally.”

Hearing this unusual tone from Lu Yun, Zhou Yuanfeng asked, “Mrs. Lu, what do you want to see him now? Is there anything wrong?”

Lu Yun’s eyes flashed and said, “I can’t let Tang Shuo hop in during this critical time, I have to interfere.”

The next day, as Gu Yansheng came down stairs, his look terrified Aunt Lan. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was heavily bruised.

“Sir… Did you not sleep at all yesterday? Why are your eyes so red?”

Rubbing his temples, Gu Yansheng ignored Aunt Lan and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Soon, there were footsteps coming down from the staircase, Gu Yansheng’s hand paused and he opened his eyes.

Wen Niannan walked down in a light blue pajamas. He already took off the bandage on his head, showing a faint scar.

Perhaps noticing the glance, Wen Niannan turned and right after making eye contact.

“Aunt Lan, I’ll help.”

“Ah, thank you, sir.”

Wen Niannan gently placed the bowls of porridge on the table, but suddenly, the chair in front of him was pulled out, and Gu Yansheng sat down staring at him.

“Sit down.”

Wen Niannan stood where he was. Aunt Lan saw this and said, “Sir, everything is ready, you should take your seat.”

“I’ll go get Mom and Yuanfeng…”

“The old lady and Young Master Zhou went to the company already and said that they will return tonight.”

Wen Niannan was a little surprised and finally sat down at the table.

Seeing himself being ignored, Gu Yansheng felt irritated just looking at the person eating.

“Why did you go to sleep in the guest room yesterday night?” He asked without even thinking, and he himself was a little stunned after asking this out loud.

Wen Niannan’s hand paused, and he looked at his spoon as he said lightly, “You hate me so much already, so why should I bother making an effort to stay beside you? Don’t you want me to stay away from you anyway?”

Gu Yansheng was pissed off instantly and threw the chopsticks on the table, stepping forward and grabbing Wen Niannan’s chin, “Stay away from me? If you want to go away, just divorce and hand out the shares in your hand, or else, don’t pretend to be so noble!”

“Sure, just take it.”

Gu Yansheng looked at the emotionless person, and his eyes darkened, “What did you say? What tricks are you playing again?”

Wen Niannan’s chin was hurting from the grab, but he didn’t try to push the hand away, just looked at the mad person, “You think I stayed because of the money, right? Then, go ahead, take the shares away.”

“You are just so good at pretending. You know very well that my mom will not agree, and do you think those shares can just be ‘taken’? I’ll prepare the documents in a few days, and if you are truly sincere, just sign those yourself!”

Gu Yansheng let go of Wen Niannan and stood up. He said fiercely from above, “You better not be playing around!”

Wen Niannan looked at the bruised face, and said, “Gu Yansheng, do you think everything you thought was correct? Do you think everything you saw must be the truth? Have you ever doubted that you have been wrong…”

Then, he left the table and went upstairs. It wasn’t until the door closed loudly before Gu Yansheng came back to his senses.

Uncle Xu walked from the backyard and looked at the person beside the table silently.

Gu Yansheng suddenly kicked a chair to the side and went upstairs with a dark face.
