Black Lotus - Chap 18

Gu Group Branch

Lu Yun was looking at the pile of photos in her hand with a serious face, which she sent someone to secretly follow Gu Yansheng.

In the photo, Gu Yansheng and Shen Luoan were in the opposite direction. At the bottom, there was a photo of Tang Shuo and Wen Niannan. Lu Yun couldn’t sit still when she saw that.

A man in a blue suit walked in. The man raised his hand to fix the gold-framed glasses on his nose, and asked in a low voice: “Mrs. Lu, were you looking for me?.”

“The branch office has handled everything here. Yuan Feng, you will take care of the rest. I’ll book a flight to return to the country”

Zhou Yuanfeng asked with some confusion: “Isn’t the cooperation with Xinyuan Group still not finalized? Mrs. Lu, why do you want to go back so soon?”

Lu Yun shook her head and sighed: “I’ll leave these to you. If I don’t go back, my son will push my son-in-law to someone else.”

“Yes, Mrs. Lu, I’ll make the arrangements.” Zhou Yuanfeng’s eyes flashed with a strange color, his voice sounded calm.

After watching Lu Yun board the plane, Zhou Yuanfeng retracted his gaze and dialed a phone number.

“Hello?” Gu Yansheng’s lazy voice came from the other side.

“Your mother is going back. She’ll stay there for a long time this time. The branch office is about to deal with everything left. You’ve to be careful. Auntie goes back this time specifically for you and Niannan.”

“I know, I will pay attention.”

Listening to Gu Yansheng’s impatient tone, Zhou Yuanfeng reminded him helplessly: ”Why do you have to offend your mother for Shen Luoan? It’s not good for you. No matter how much you try, she isn’t going to let Shen Luoan enter your house. ”

“I know that my mother will accept him. As long as my mother sees Wen Niannan’s true face, she will agree to my divorce.”

“Have you ever thought about it? Are you doing this because you love Shen Luoan, or it’s because you want to repay him for his kindness?”

When Zhou Yuanfeng suddenly asked such a sharp question, the other end of the phone stayed in complete silence.

“I’ll take care of it for you from here, but Auntie isn’t that easy to fool, so please ask yourself.”

After that, Zhou Yuanfeng hung up the phone, and Gu Yansheng was left, lost in his thoughts with an unreadable face.

Wen Niannan woke up almost noon, because of the dazzling sunlight he couldn’t open his eyes. He just got up and sat back with a pain in his stomach.

Last night, he went home with no food because of the sham, and today he dad to deal with stomach problems due to the lack of sleep and skipping breakfast.

After washing, he changed his pajamas and left the room, wondering why the housekeeper Xu Shu didn’t call him.

As soon as he walked downstairs, he saw Uncle Xu and Aunt Lan standing aloof with a panicked expression, after coming down Wen Niannan saw them looking nervously in the direction of the living room.

As Wen Niannan walked toward the living room, the smell of smoke became stronger as soon as he approached. When he saw the person sitting on the couch drinking tea, his face went pale and stood frozen in his place.

After hearing the sound of footsteps going downstairs, Gu Yansheng raised his eyes to look at Wen Niannan, he was as cold as ice. When he put down the cup, he stared straight at him.

After a while, Wen Niannan didn’t enter the living room, Gu Yansheng frowned and said impatiently: “Are you a snail? Why aren’t you coming, how long do I have to wait for you?”

Wen Niannan didn’t want to go over, his body couldn’t stop from shaking. The last time he argued with Gu Yansheng, he was beaten so badly that he had to be taken to the hospital. The shadow of being beaten again in that way was always around him, hunting him. He was afraid to make a mistake and be beaten again.

Gu Yansheng realized that he wouldn’t come, he was just about to speak again but he saw Wen Niannan looking at him with horror taking a step back.

Suddenly he became aware of it, and he couldn’t help laughing: “Wen Niannan, you…are you afraid of me?”
