Black Lotus - Chap 116
When Wen Niannan saw the cigarette butts on the ground, he guessed that the person in the car was Gu Yansheng.
Gu Yansheng has a habit when smoking, every time there is a piece of it left he would throw it away, and the cigarette butts in front of the car are all broken and thrown away.
After he entered the house, the person in the car came out, and he was right, it was Gu Yansheng …
____
“You…your hair…”
Wen Niannan’s hair that was originally covering the scar was cut short and combed up, revealing a smooth forehead and also showing the shallow scar.
Gu Yansheng’s heart trembled when he saw Wen Niannan’s eyes looking at him, he looked at the scar and took a step forward subconsciously, but Wen Niannan’s face changed and took a step back.
After looking at the distance with alertness in his eyes, Gu Yansheng’s expression became a little stiff, and he stared at the person in front of him in daze.
These days, in order to prevent Wen Niannan from finding Gu Yansheng following him, Gu Yansheng could only watch Niannan and Tang Shuo from afar. But today, Wen Niannan came alone, so he relaxed his self and got out of the car.
“My hair was long and would often block my sight, so I combed it up. Why? Should I inform Mr. Gu if I change my hairstyle?”
Wen Niannan raised his hand to touched his hair, looking at Gu Yansheng with cold eyes.
“It looks good that you show your forehead…” Gu Yansheng suddenly said for no reason, and the two of them froze in place as soon as they both heard what the other said.
It looks good…
Wen Niannan’s other hand behind his back clenched tightly. He couldn’t understand why Gu Yansheng would follow him to monitor him, or what Shen Luoan was upto with him again.
“Gu Yansheng…what were you doing just now? were you following me?”
Gu Yansheng’s face change dramatically after being pierced straight through. He suppressed the emotion in his eyes, and said solemnly “Following you? I was just passing through on my way to buy something… That’s it…, who do you think you are, being so narcissistic and arrogant, don’t take yourself too seriously.”
Obviously, Gu Yansheng was a little shaken after being exposed. The excuses he made were so flawed. First, there was no supermarket at Leqing Street. Second, there was a supermarket downstairs in Gu’s Building.
Wen Niannan looked at the car behind Gu Yansheng, then glances at the CCTV that was posted at the entrance of Mingyue’s studio, which happened to be facing the parking place of the car.
“Do you pass by every day? Do you need me to check the surveillance camera?”
Gu Yansheng followed Wen Niannan’s gaze, and his face instantly changes when he saw the surveillance camera installed at the door.
“Yes, I’m following you. I want to see if you can’t wait to be with your old lover after divorcing me. I didn’t expect you to really come to Tang Shuo…”
“What? We are already divorced, you don’t have to take care of me after the divorce.” Wen Niannan raised his hand to touched the scar on his forehead, thinking of what Gu Yansheng had just said, his eyes were filled with irony.
“and Good-looking? Is this scar looks good for you? It was all thanks to someone! I used to be afraid of scars because I thought you would hate me, so I was careful not to get hurt, yet I didn’t expect that the only scar I have would be given by you… ”
Gu Yansheng couldn’t say a word, he felt like something is stuck in his throat, the emotions etch on his face changes as he turn his head away.
He couldn’t dare to look into Wen Niannan’s eyes. After realizing that he likes the other party, he didn’t know how to face Wen Niannan who had already signed the divorce agreement.
“That’s because you made me angry. How could I not do it, If it weren’t for you insulting Shen Luo’an first?” Wen Niannan suddenly felt ridiculous when he heard that he was just protecting Shen Luo’an.
“Shen Luoan…it’s Shen Luoan again. Since you think he is so perfect and loves him so much that you came here too look for me? Why don’t you just marry him, I will give you my blessing.”
Gu Yansheng looked at him incredulously “You …What? Blessings?”
Wen Niannan looked at the ring in Gu Yansheng’s hand and said lightly “Yes, I will bestow my blessings to your marriage.”
Obviously carrying the couple ring with Shen Luoan in his hand yet he ran to ask if he was with other man.
Gu Yansheng slammed him forward as he approaches him and said sternly: “How dare you…”

“Why didn’t Niannan go in?” Tang Shuo took a coat and decided to look for Wen Niannan outside.
After seeing Wen Niannan on the side of the road with Gu Yansheng, he immediately ran towards them. Pulling Gu Yansheng away from him and putting the coat on Wen Niannan in the process, but Tang Shou’s hands stayed on top of Niannan’s shoulder.
Gu Yansheng stared at the hand that Tang Shuo placed on his ex-husband’s shoulders, and said in astonishment “You…Wen Niannan, aren’t you afraid when you come in contact with others? Or were you just lying to me?”
“Mr. Gu, you said others, but I am not just someone else. Uncle Wen and I are both very close to Niannan, so naturally he will not resist.”
“A close person?”
When Gu Yansheng heard Tang Shuo claiming that he was a person accepted by Wen Niannan. His face suddenly became gloomy and terrifying, and he raised his eyes to look at the person who was hanging his head and not saying anything.
“You fell into another man’s arms so soon.” The phone rang suddenly. After Gu Yansheng saw who the caller was, he looked up at Wen Niannan, and then presses the answer button, making his voice deliberately louder to obviously let Wen Niannan hear.
“Okay, Luo An, I will go to your place tonight to accompany you. I will bring you whatever flowers you want.” After hanging up from the call, Gu Yansheng glances at Wen Niannan to see how he reacted, but the other party was just looking at the ground with no reaction on his face, Gu Yansheng clenches his fists as he finally turned and drove away.
“Niannan, let’s go inside.” Tang Shuo watched the leaving car, his eyes full of discomfort.
Wen Niannan’s face instantly turned pale after Gu Yansheng left, as his body began to tremble.
He thought he would respond calmly, but he still felt fear when Gu Yansheng approached him
“What’s wrong? Niannan, you…”
“I’m okay…it’s just my stomach hurts a bit.”
Tang Shuo quickly helped Wen Niannan into the room to let him sat down, taking the breakfast he bought on the table to hand it to him, standing by and watching Wen Niannan drank the porridge spoon by spoon, a strange color flashes in his eyes.
The truth is as soon as when Wen Niannan arrived, he heard a voice coming over and heard the dialogue between Gu Yansheng and Wen Niannan.
But Tang Shuo just stood aside as he stared at the ground, listening quietly and didn’t come out.

Since admitting that he is WE in secret, Shen Luoan had received an invitation to compose for ‘Uranus singer’ and an interview with a famous program. Sure enough, this status is a lot more convenient for him.
Shen Luoan went to the Gu’s Building to share the good news with Gu Yansheng, but found that Gu Yansheng was not in the company.
Xiao Li refused to say where his boss went. So he asked the security guard at the door instead and found out that Gu Yansheng would come to the company early these days and would drove Xiao Li’s car away.
After waiting in the office for a long time, he decided to dial Gu Yansheng’s phone and was very happy when he heard that he would accompany him tonight. Shen Luoan thought it was the identity of WE that made Gu Yansheng’s willingness to get close to him, so he quickly left to go home and prepare.
But Gu Yansheng still didn’t came until it got dark, and Gu Yansheng’s phone was now turned off. Shen Luoan became more and more irritated as he threw the red wine from the table.
“Didn’t you agree to accompany me! What went wrong? Why did Gu Yansheng treated me like this…”
Suddenly the phone rang, and Shen Luoan breathed a sigh of relief, taking the phone to answer it.
“Yan Sheng, why are you so late…”
“Shen Luoan! What did you do! Didn’t you keep telling me that Gu Yansheng desperately likes you? Then why did he run away to find Wen Niannan!”
Shen Luoan was startled ” What? He went to Wen Niannan?”
“Check the Weibo by yourself! I’m so disappointed in you!”
Shen Luoan was taken aback by his uncle’s angry voice, he hung up the call to open the Weibo app, and saw the photo on the homepage.
[Mr. Gu of the Gu Group broke the rumors of derailment. After the divorce, the wedding ring was never taken off, and he appeared in Wenzhai to visit his wife! ]
A total of four photos, the first photo is Sheng inside the car appearing in front of the warm house, the second and third photo was Gu Yansheng’s lonely face against the car while smoking, and the fourth photo are the enlarged wedding rings in his ring-finger while holding the cigarette.
[Sure enough, Mrs. Gu is always the lover, it’s impossible to cheat, that WE is just an ex from many years ago]
[what! It’s been a long time since the divorce. Yet he haven’t taken off the wedding ring. Oh my god, I’m so infatuated with this two. Even if you get divorced, your heart still belongs to the one you loves]
[since the divorce can happen, it is natural that both parties have an unforgivable fault. What’s the use of quit, I guess it’s with that.. What his name again? Louan?]
[Oh, there are so many things in the Gu Group, which dominate the headlines every day, and the marketing methods are really powerful]
[Well, WE is a third party? Oh my! Is it such a big melon? ]
Shen Luoan whose reading the comments area, made his face became darker and darker, why Gu Yan Sheng hadn’t taken off the wedding ring yet? Why did he go to Wen’s house? And why are these photos allowed to be published…
Gu Yansheng took the company’s affairs back to the study for processing, but couldn’t get to concentrate no matter what, raising his hand to cover his eyes, thinking over and over again what Wen Niannan had said.
Suddenly the phone rang, and it was a message from Shen Luoan.
[Yan Sheng, there is a live show that I participated in that will show on Saturday, I will play Brave, I hope you can watch it]
Gu Yansheng was taken aback after seeing it, Brave is Shen Luoan’s Yaguo’s award-winning song, it was Shen Luo An’s written music about his experience in wandering for several years.
Shen Luoan chose this song naturally to remind Gu Yansheng, to not forget the sufferings he experienced because of Wen Niannan’s methods.
After the end of the song, Shen Luoan stood up and smiled at the camera.
“This ‘Brave’ really deserves to be made by WE. God, it is amazing, but fans want to hear WE play the first Internet famous music ‘cage’ posted on the website when WE debuted, I just don’t know whether WE can play it live?”
When Shen Luoan heard the host’s words, he froze in place instantly, and his face became pale.
“The ‘cage’ … I haven’t played it for a long time, I don’t really… I don’t remember. If fans want to listen, I will record a video of me playing on Weibo.” The host continued to ask “It’s okay, even if you make a mistake. Fans want to listen to WE playing on the show, it’s for the happiness of the fans, OK?”
Shen Luoan hasn’t played any WE music at all. He only listened to it a few days ago, so naturally he didn’t want to agree.
Shen Luoan still wanted to refuse, but was handed a sheet of music by the staff on the side, it was the score of the ‘cage’.
