Black Lotus - Chap 129
In the dimly lit room, Gu Yansheng lied on the bed trembling with painful eyelids, his forehead was covered with dense cold sweat.

“Why did you betrayed me! Why did you abandon me! I took my life to save you, you promised to take care of me forever!”
Gu Yansheng found himself standing in the alley where he was wounded back then. He was lying on the ground like a dying boy, his light blue coat was covered with mud and blood.
“Gu Yansheng, you promised that you would be nice to me, why go to Wen Niannan! I saved you! I saved you! I saved you!”
Gu Yansheng sat up abruptly on the bed, his eyes full of horror.
In the room, Gu Yansheng held the necklace in his hand in a daze, looking bewildered under the dim light.
“What the hell should I do…”

Shen Luoan was not as simple and weak as he had thought for so many years, even the fact that he hated Wen Niannan’s plagiarism was framed, but he couldn’t expose it face to face.
Even during that three years when he was bullied again and again in high school, he asked to make complain, but he disappeared…he didn’t dare to think about if it was real or fake.
He could have known everything if he would have people to check it, but he didn’t do it.

Maybe he knew the answer in his heart, or maybe he was afraid to know the answer in his heart…
Gu Yansheng was sure that he liked Wen Niannan because he would be jealous because of seeing him with others, and miss his taste and voice.
He was shocked when he saw Wen Niannan’s self-confident and dazzling appearance under the light. He couldn’t forget the scene under the lens when Wen Niannan played together with Phil, only to realize that he had never watched Wen Niannan seriously.

The gentle and cold face in front of the camera made him look captivated for a long time, but he couldn’t return to his senses, compared with the beautiful and confusing sound of the piano, Gu Yansheng looked at the person playing the piano obsessively.
He found that he was thinking about Wen Niannan all the time. He wanted to talk to Wen Niannan normally, just like Wen Niannan did to Tang Shuo, but that smile never faced him. The two met with cold eyes and quarreled endlessly.
Gu Yansheng raised his hand to support his forehead and caught a glimpse of the ring in his hand.
Putting down the necklace in his hand, he stared at the ring on his left hand and held it tightly.
He remembered that Wen Niannan had said that the ring was fake like their marriage. He didn’t understand why Wen Niannan would say that.
He designed the ring as a wedding ring, stopping his mother from buying a wedding ring before getting married.
Even though he didn’t like Wen Niannan at that time, he could not play with the wedding ring because it represented marriage. In Gu Yansheng’s view, that was the most important thing for a marriage.

Perhaps, as Zhou Yuanfeng said, you should try to understand others, take into account Wen Niannan’s feelings, and couldn’t just be arrogant.
But when Gu Yansheng tried to change himself and slowly come into contact with Wen Niannan, he was disrupted by a sudden accident, so that he would never get a chance again…
“Mr. Gu, this is the company’s financial statement for this month. We found that one of the accounts was not correct. After inquiring, it was not our Gu’s project but it was part of the Qiyue Group.”
Gu Yansheng was checking the signature of the document, and when he heard Qiyue Group, he frowned, raising his eyes and glancing at Xiao Li coldly, he said: “Qiyue? Tell me more.”
“Qiyue seems to have moved the project funds and I don’t know where it is used. We noticed that Qiyue suddenly injected a large number of funds from unknown sources. Our people found out that Tang Lunxuan met with Qin’s family yesterday. The two companies seemed to be discussing something. At that time, President Qin shook hands with Tang Lunxuan and agreed on something.”
That couldn’t be more obvious, Tang Lunxuan wanted to eat two meals.
“Are you sure you saw Tang Lunxuan secretly interacting with Qin’s family?”
Xiao Li nodded lightly and said: “Yes, the people in our company have seen it with their own eyes. I can call someone if you felt it wrong. Oh, yes, that person was also caught by hitting you some time ago…”
Gu Yansheng’s face suddenly turned gloomy, he said coldly: “So, it’s like that, you can go out.”
Xiao Li was a little surprised. According to Mr. Gu’s handling methods in the past, he should deal with it: “But… Mr. Gu, aren’t you going to handle it?”
“Go!”
“Yes, Mr. Gu.” Xiao Li closed the door gently, who knew that as soon as he closed the door, he would heard the sound of something falling inside.
Gu Yansheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and lit a cigarette, looking at the project file in his hand, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He never thought that Tang Lunxuan would want to use the project to show his favor to the Qin family, but he secretly used funds to make an alliance with the Qin family without thinking that Gu would not be aware of it.
“One Tang Lunxuan…one Tang Shuo…okay, the Tang family’s abacus is really good…”
Tang Shuo sat near the window and wrote the melody to participate in the competition as he hummed the song. After writing a paragraph, he stretched his waist and turned to look at Wen Niannan who was sitting behind him playing.
Wen Niannan wore a white shirt with a knitted sweater. The snow-white skin and jet-black hair made the person in front of the piano look like an angel.
Tang Shuo looked like a fool at him for a while, as he suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up.
He took out the phone to the side and turned on the front camera and pointed it at him. Tang Shuo glanced at the screen where he slowly moved to the left, the piano and Wen Niannan behind him also appeared in the lens.
“Niannan, look here.”
Wen Niannan raised his eyes and looked over in confusion, and saw Tang Shuo holding his phone motionless before he understood what he was doing. He also looked at the screen of the phone with a slight smile.
Click…
No one thought ever that the photo wouldn’t be only a photo, but also would became the medicine that later would support Tang Shuo’s life, the only hope in that bitter time…

Tang Shuo shook the score in his hand, smiling, he said: “Niannan, I have changed my section. Shall we try the full version later in the ensemble?”
Wen Niannan nodded lightly, and said: “Yeah, good.”

“We can definitely win first place. By then, the names of Tang Shuo and Wen Niannan will be remembered by everyone. Haha, this song is really amazing and absolutely unprecedented. You are a genius, Niannan!”
Wen Niannan smiled and shook his head: “I didn’t write this, but we wrote it. You are a genius, too.”
Tang Shuo realized that he also praised him by the way, and scratched his head with an embarrassed smile.
Zhou Yuanfeng went to the company as soon as he came back from the airport. Lu Yun gave him the project documents for the bidding because that bidding project would be very important to the Gu Group. Almost all the major group companies in the M country were trying everything. The Jiang family and the Qin family naturally participated in the way to get the project.
After working overtime with Lu Yun in the early hours of the night before, by the time, he took another flight, Zhou Yuanfeng was already exhausted. He looked at the box in his bag and smiled a little more.
“Zhou, Mr. Zhou, you are back.”
As soon as Zhou Yuanfeng walked to the elevator, he saw Xiao Li coming out of the elevator and asked: “Xiao Li, where are you going?”
“Mr. Gu asked me to go to Qiyue Group to ask them for the detailed documents of the project. I will go first, and Mr. Zhou, please go up first.”
“Wait a minute, go to Qiyue Group?”
Zhou Yuanfeng’s eyes flashed, and he said: “I can go, you can go to work first, I should go back with the file, tell Mr. Gu I was just passing by.”
“Okay.”
Zhou Yuanfeng gave the document to Gu Yansheng and then explained to him the situation of the bidding project that Lu Yun said. Gu Yansheng took it with a cold face and looked at it seriously.
Qiyue Group
Zhou Yuanfeng walked out of the elevator to the president’s office with a box in his hand. As soon as he approached the door, he heard a familiar voice coming from it.
“Well, everyone is doing very well, but we need to improve efficiency to make the company better. Let’s end here today.”
All the employees in the office walked out. When Zhou Yuanfeng saw that everyone was gone, he walked over and opened the door.
“Is there anything else you haven’t understood?” Tang Lunxuan looked at the information in his hand and didn’t lookup.
“Yes, I’m looking for Mr. Tang for something.” A playful tone could be heard.
Tang Lunxuan’s hand that turned the page stiffened, he looked at Zhou Yuanfeng, who was slowly approaching with a sneer, in surprise.
Tang Lunxuan subconsciously covered his glasses, stood up and retreated, as he said: “Why did you come in? What are you doing here? ”

Zhou Yuanfeng narrowed his eyes and walked over step by step: “What…what? Uhm…does that sentence has two meanings…”
Tang Lunxuan was taken aback, thinking of what Zhou Yuanfeng meant, his face flushed suddenly: “You! What are you doing? Are you a gangster?”
“Rogue? So, Mr. Tang, you like gangsters. I think I’m quite a gangster, I’m a little gangster you know. Would you like to try?”
“Zhou! Yuan! Feng!”
Zhou Yuanfeng sat on the desk, smiled, and raised his hand in response: “I’m here, you know.”

Seeing that the other man was thin-skinned and angry, Zhou Yuanfeng didn’t continue to harass him, took out the box in his hand, and handed it to him.
“Here, I brought this to you.”
Tang Lunxuan frowned and said: “What is this?”
“Promise to use your glasses. The limited edition of the brand you like is difficult to buy. I have spent a lot of effort.”
Tang Lunxuan took the silver-gray box in astonishment, when he opened it, his eyes lit up when he saw the anxiously waiting limited edition that he hadn’t bought for a long time.
“I haven’t found it for a long time, how did you buy it?”
Just as Zhou Yuanfeng was about to say something, the door was opened suddenly, and someone came in, he immediately got up from the table and stood aside with a cold expression.
“Mr. Tang, someone said just now that he was looking for you, but he couldn’t find you, then he came up suddenly, do you want a security guard to get him…oh, sorry, I didn’t know you were already here.”
It was Tang Lunxuan’s secretary who entered. He went in to tell him that some member of the Gu family was looking for him, but he didn’t expect someone to sneak in.
After the secretary closed the door and left, Tang Lunxuan turned his head and glanced at Zhou Yuanfeng, whose expression was unnatural, with a smile in his eyes.
“Mr. Zhou, did you come to Qiyue for something? It stands to reason that you, a workaholic, would not leave the company to just bring glasses.”
Zhou Yuanfeng glanced at Tang Lunxuan as he loosened his tie, then he said flatly: “I need the detailed information and documents of the project, we need it for Mr. Gu.”
“The project…the detailed information file…”
Tang Lunxuan suddenly froze when he heard Zhou Yuanfeng had come to ask for the project information, panic flashed in his eyes.
