“Kill him! No one cares about such cheap bone like him!”
“Wen Niannan, you will be free if you die, go to hell…”
“if he’s alive or dead what does has to do with me…”
The person on the bed suddenly screamed, he opened his eyes that were full of fear. Wen Niannan’s chest was violently going up and down, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Wen Niannan slowly sat up and hugged his body. After a long time of staring into space, he got up and took some pajamas to the bathroom. He filled the bathtub with water. Wen Niannan immersed himself in the water and closes his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly saw Gu Yansheng standing outside the bathtub looking at him. Wen Niannan opens his eyes again only to see water, so he got up, making the water drip from his hair
“Cough…cough cough…”
Wen Niannan hurriedly wiped off the water on his face and looked around in panic. After making sure that there is no Gu Yansheng inside the bathroom, his stiffened body gradually relaxed.
I actually had hallucinations…
Wen Niannan put on his pajamas after drying himself and turned on all the lights in the house as he went downstairs, he’s eyes catching the piano at the hall.

“One more bottle please .”
Tang Shuo was drunkenly sitting in front of the bar-counter, still pouring alcohol into the glass, drinking again and again.
The owner of the bar couldn’t stop himself anymore and out of curiosity he ask “Hey, what’s wrong with you Tang Shuo? Did you got your heart broken?”
“Oh, heart broken? He didn’t even gave me a single chance. How can I be broken in love? ”
Tang Shuo took out his mobile phone and looked at the pendant dangling on it, with bitterness in his eyes, lying on the bar and talking drunkenly.
“Why don’t you give me a chance… We obviously got along very well, aren’t we getting along well in the hospital? Why do I suddenly have to be driven away…”
“Why make me feel like I am suddenly near and then you push me far away? I can’t catch you, you make me lose and gain…”
After seeing a really drunk Tang Shou, the bar owner immediately called Tang Lunxuan. Soon Tang Lunxuan came and took the drunk Tang Shuo home.
After that day, Tang Shuo suddenly accepted composing invitations that he had recently refused. And the released songs were as popular as ever, making the Internet began to hotly discuss about him again.

The sound of fireworks keep booming continuously outside the house as Wen Niannan, whose eyes were full of gloom, stood in front of the window ceiling, looking at the exceptionally beautiful fireworks outside.
Today is the last day of the year, and everyone are reunited with their families to watch the fireworks and eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Wen Niannan sat on the sofa alone and turned on the TV, staring at the screen blankly, he decided to look down at his phone.
He wanted to say ‘a happy new year’ to his father, but Wen Niannan was afraid that his father would be disappointed in him because of his divorce from Gu Yansheng…
Ding…
[“Nian Nan, I’m at the door, can you come out for a while?”]
Wen Niannan looks at the text message on the phone, after the incident of pushing him away, Tang Shuo never tried to contact him again.
Wen Niannan raised his eyes to look at the door, he then opened the door and walked out.
There were no people in the doorway and in the courtyard. Wen Niannan turned around when he saw no one and was about to walk back inside when suddenly , there was a loud noise, and the dark night sky seemed to be illuminated by shooting stars as the fireworks keep on shooting above.
All the beautiful fireworks exploded in the sky, spreaded out like meteor shower. Suddenly, a heart-shaped faintly appears in one of the fireworks.
“Happy New Year!”
Tang Shuo suddenly jumped out from the side and walked over with a smile, holding a bunch of flowers in his hand.
“Does the fireworks look good? I have taken a lot of thought that, haha, d-do you like that heart shape or Is it a bit old-fashioned?”
Wen Niannan couldn’t speak for a long time as he just starerd at Tang Shuo who was smiling brightly, Wen Niannan trembled.
” You…what are you doi–.”
Tang Shuo blinked suddenly and put his finger over his lips “Sshhhh… Niannan, look who is behind you.”
“Xiao Nian”
When Wen Niannan heard the sound, his body suddenly jerked. Frozen, he slowly turned stiffly to look at the person behind him. When he saw the familiar face , Wen Niannan’s eyes instantly reddened.
“Father…”
When Father Wen saw Wen Niannan’s thin face, his tears brimmed in his eyes , and with a hoarse voice he responded “You are thinner than before…” Wen Niannan’s tears fell instantly after hearing his father’s voice. He wanted to rush into his father’s arms and tell his grievances. He wanted to tell his father that he missed his mother so much, but he was unable to move his body, still frozen in place.
Father Wen stepped forward and took Wen Niannan in his arms, and hugged his heart-wrenching son who had been sensible since he was a child.
“Xiao Nian, I’m sorry that father came so late and made you suffer so much…”
Wen Niannan who was trying to control the emotion in his eyes, raised his hand to wipe the tears from his father’s face, and smiled affectionately at him “No , I’m very happy, I’m very happy that you came, father.”
“Why didn’t you tell me about your hospitalization, I should have taken care of you, I shouldn’t have let you be alone in the hospital…”
Wen Niannan shook his head and whispered softly “I didn’t let Tang Shuo contact you. I don’t want to disturb my busy father.”
Father Wen felt even more guilty. He and Wen Niannan seemed to have always been separated by a layer because of Gu Yansheng, but now that the gap is gone, the father and son can finally be able to talk comfortably with each other.
“Uncle, let’s go in first, it’s too cold outside, Nian Nan’s body is still not well.”
Tang Shuo interrupted them suddenly, Wen’s father nodded softly, and the three of them entered the house.
Wen Niannan learned from Tang Shuo that his father found out about their divorce though internet. Later, after founding out everything from Dr. Li, he became more furious, and resolutely announced that he had severed all cooperation with the Gu Group and hurried back to the country.
As soon as the father and son entered the room, they sat on the sofa and chatted. They seemed to have opened a chatterbox and said countless of words.
Seeing the change of expression on his father’s face, Wen Niannan felt even more distressed.
Fathet Wen glances at Wen Niannan’s skinny body and sighed “You’re so easy to read, You don’t make dinner, do you?”
“No, it was just for one day, I also ate some cookies earlier”
His father’s frown widened “How can that work, your stomach is already bad, how can you just eat some biscuits? Enough! Dad will make some of your favorite dishes okay?”
Wen Niannan was startled and quickly, “Actually… There is no food at home. …”
“Well, I have, I bought lots of foods.”
Tang Shuo suddenly took out his car key, shaking it in front of them. He then ran out with a smile, and soon returned with a few bags of vegetables.
Catching Wen Niannan staring at him stupidly, Tang Shuo blinked his eyes and showed her little tiger teeth and said “Am I awesome? I knew you don’t know how to buy vegetables, so I prepared it in advance.”
Wen Niannan looked at his father’s busy figure in the kitchen. He once again saw the scene of his father and mother cooking during the Chinese New Year.
“Thank you, Tang Shuo…”
“What?”
“Thank you for everything you have done for me, such as the beautiful fireworks? I like it very much. Thank you for bringing my father to accompany me for the New Year’s Eve dinner…”
“No… There’s nothing to thank about , New Year is supposed to be lively and joyful. I just hope Niannan that you will always remember that you are not alone, you still have me, and Uncle Wen. We’ll accompany you and eat dinner with you during the New Year.”
Tang Shuo looked at the brimming tears in Wen Niannan’s eyes and he felt the genuine joy from Wen Niannan’s heart, and a light flashed in his drooping eyes.
When he woke up drunk that day, he was severely reprimanded by his brother, shouting that he was too weak to be inlove.
“What’s the use of your self-pity, like this, now? I told you that your enemy is not an ordinary person. How could Mr. Wen suddenly accept you after suffering so much psychological damage? You have liked him for so many years but now that he’s already divorced, why can’t you wait for him anymore?”
“He doesn’t want me now, he won’t let me approach him anymore. He wants to close his heart to prevent anyone from entering. What can I do…”
“Then you can make yourself stronger and better, let him slowly realize your tenderness and love, and walk into his heart bit by bit.”
Tang Shuo’s eyes travelled to looked at the warmth kitchen. Father Wen looked at the man on the sofa again, his eyes curled up into a smile, making Tang Shou’s heart particularly happy.
He felt that Wen Niannan had become less resistant to him than before, and he knew that what he had done this time is right. He wanted Wen Niannan to understand that he was different from Gu Yansheng and he could be trusted.
Father Wen made the table full of food. This dinner was the happiest meal Wen Niannan had eaten in so many years.
They went to the sofa to chat after eating, and Father Wen looked at the furnishings in the house and talked to Wen Niannan a lot about Ye Xian’s past.
Father Wen glanced at the brand new piano in the hall, he turned his head to look at Tang Shuo, Tang Shuo also nodded.
“Xiao Nian, do you still play piano? Can Father hear you play a piece of music?”
“Now… I d-don’t play the piano anymore.”
“Why don’t you play the piano anymore? Your mother likes watching you play the piano very much. When Wen Nianan was young, she always praised your talents and said that you will be better than her in the future.”
Wen Niannan was taken aback, and purses his lips “Mom…did she really said that?”
Father Wen sighed lightly and said “Dad knows why you don’t want to play the piano again, but dad also knows how much you love the piano and music. Don’t care about their opinions. Just be yourself. You don’t have to do it for others. Make your own light.”
“Your mother wants you to be yourself and live for yourself. Don’t be wronged by anyone or anything to perfect others.”
Wen Niannan turned to look at the piano, with a little choked voice “How could I not love the piano, I…”
Tang Shuo walked over and squatted down to help Father Wen persuade him “Niannan, uncle is right, you shouldn’t give up the piano and the music you love, your mother wants to see you play too. The confident look of Wen Niannan at the piano.”
Father Wen stood up and walked to the piano, and said in a deep voice “Xiao Nian let go, let go of all the painful memories of the past, and make a brand new self and do what you like in this new year , okay?
“Okay…”
