Black Lotus - Chap 65
Seeing Wen Niannan wouldn’t desist on agreeing on the divorce, a weird color flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes.
“Nian Nian, Mother knows that you’re a good sensitive child who remembers when your father’s company had financial problems, the Gu family and Lu family helped him, and now the three companies work together on countless projects. If you get divorced, what will your father do? Aren’t you afraid that how embarrassed your father will be?”
After all, she was a well-known strong woman with powerful convictions in the business world. Lu Yun has always been smart and never soft in her ways to deal with things. She could use every dirty move to stop Wen Niannan from divorcing.
Wen Niannan was hesitating, looking at Lu Yun without expression, not speaking for a long moment.
Father…
When the company had some problems, his father was getting thinner every day, going out early and returning late, Lu Yun reached out to help the company.
Now the company was growing more and more, and his father was very happy. What will happen to him if he divorces?
“Nian Nian? Can you give him another chance? Can you look at your mother’s face?”
Looking at Lu Yun’s praying eyes, Wen Niannan made a line with his lips and agreed: “Okay…okay…”
Maybe it was for the sake of his father or for the sake of the company…or perhaps for the sake of his own heart that refuses to give up, wanting to try one more time for one last time…
Lu Yun finally sighed of relief when Wen Niannan had agreed.
Yes, as long as the two children connect with each other more, as long as Gu Yansheng doesn’t listen to other people’s malicious words, it won’t be in vain to leave the company abroad to return to the country.
“Nian Nian, lie down and rest a little. I’ll tell Aunt Lan to make some porridge to nourish your stomach. You should rest meanwhile.”
“Good, thank you, mom.”
Lu Yun closed the door gently, with heavy steps she turned around to go to the study.
As soon as she reached the door, she heard the fight coming from inside, she opened the door walking in.
“What’s with the noise? Arguing endlessly is the topic for today?”
She didn’t know what the two men in the study had just talked about, but Gu Yansheng was grabbing Zhou Yuanfeng by the collar with both of his hands, looking at him with a mix of sadness and anger.
“Why not let him go? Do you think Yuanfeng can’t beat you?
Gu Yansheng released him unconvinced, standing aside, he asked angrily: “Why revoke me of the management rights to lose the company in hands of Yuanfeng? Did you informed grandpa?”
Lu Yun sat down and motioned to Gu Yansheng to sit on the sofa beside her, and said faintly: “Your grandfather doesn’t need to know, Yuan Feng will stay by your side to help not return to F country, lest you do What reckless thing happened.”
Seeing a Gu Yansheng silent with a somber face, Lu Yun continued: “Also, your rich kid’s comfortable life is over. From today onwards, you’ll be responsible for the diet and health of Nian Nian, also to take care of him keeping his body in good condition. One more thing, you won’t be allowed to see that bitch named Shen again during this period.”
“Huh?, what if I refuse?”
“It doesn’t matter whether you agree or not, I’ll just tell you one thing, if you don’t commit to your responsibilities, the company will stay in Yuanfeng’s hands till who knows when, once Nian Nian’s body recovers because of your cares, I’ll hand it over to you.”
Gu Yansheng bowed his head sourly, he wasn’t expecting his mother to play such a trick.
“Your grandfather doesn’t know about this, but if he finds out what you did, he won’t let you go just like that!”
Gu Yansheng kept silent, no saying any word, Lu Yun assumed his commitment, so she said: “Now go to the kitchen and ask Aunt Lan to make some porridge, once it’s done, you’ll take it to Nian Nian’s room.”
“OK,” He said, gritting his teeth.
He slammed the door leaving.
Aunt Lan was preparing dinner in the kitchen because Yuanfeng and the old lady were at home that day, she was busy making the soup and cutting vegetables. There hadn’t been so many people in the house for such a long time.
Gu Yansheng went to the kitchen door, shouting without getting a response, he approached impatiently: “Aunt Lan.”
“Oh! Sir, you scared me to death, what do you need?” Asked Aunt Lan, surprised.
With a gloomy face and a dull tone, he said: “Wen Niannan wants some porridge, cook some then serve a plate and take it upstairs.”
“I remember that my aunt told you to take it upstairs by yourself.” Out of the blue, Zhou Yuanfeng’s voice came from behind him.
As soon as Gu Yansheng heard the sound, the anger overtook him, he turned around throwing a punch at him, but Zhou Yuanfeng was faster, he dodged it.
“You still dare to come here, it seems you aren’t afraid to die. If it weren’t for your stupid idea, I wouldn’t have to stay at home and take care of him!”
Zhou Yuanfeng walked into the kitchen indifferently saying to Aunt Lan: “Aunt Lan, don’t care about him. Aunt said that he’ll be responsible for the food and health of Niannan, meaning, he has to make the porridge by himself. No one will save your ass now.”
“Ah? Oh, great.” Aunt Lan, though confused, said nothing, she continued to prepare the other dishes.
Gu Yansheng clenched his fists shivering, with a gloomy and terrible expression. He raised his eyes, glancing angrily at Zhou Yuanfeng.
Seeing that Gu Yansheng was getting furious, Zhou Yuanfeng stopped teasing him, he shook his head saying: “Forget it, Aunt Lan, after you have finished cooking. We’re going to leave President Gu alone, so he won’t be embarrassed, it shouldn’t be that difficult for him.”
Snorting angrily, Gu Yansheng left going to the living room, he leaned on the sofa, closing his eyes. After a while, he took out a cigarette from his pocket liting up.
“Sure enough, with one word from the Old Lady, she can make him commit to anything, it seems that Master still listens to everything the old lady says.” Said Aunt Lan softly, looking at the man in the living room.
“He’s holding back, the relationship between their mother and him is different from of others.”
After smoking one cigarette after another, Gu Yansheng was exhaling a cigarette ring irritably while tapping rhythmically with his hand on the sofa arm.
He was trying to understand the question of Wen Niannan, it was bothering him.
Out of a sudden, his cellphone rang, when Gu Yansheng saw the caller, he immediately pressed the accept button: “Hey, Luoan.”
“Yansheng, how are you? You left in such a hurry today, is everything alright?” Shen Luoan’s worried voice came from the other end of the phone.
He looked at his watch, then he looked upstairs one more time, saying slowly: “It’s ok, don’t worry, did you eat well?”
“Yes, I already ate. I’m looking at some music scores.”
Shen Luoan was a little surprised when he heard his calm over the phone, how could nothing happen?
Knowing the strong character of that old woman, now she would be angry, arguing with him, and the relationship between them would surely be at the edge of the precipice. Why didn’t anything happen?
“Gu Yansheng come here to make the porridge, who’s calling you?”
When Shen Luoan heard Zhou Yuanfeng’s voice, his grip on the phone tightened, resentment flashed in his eyes.
No wonder why it was so quiet, Zhou Yuanfeng was beside the old woman.
“Is that Mr. Zhou? Mr. Zhou is also there?”
“Well, my mother is back and Yuanfeng is here to take charge of the company’s business. I won’t be able to see you these days. Please take care of yourself.”
“Is it because I have done something wrong?” Shen Luoan was crying, the pain and weak tone made him feel pity.
Gu Yansheng tried to comfort him: “It’s not because of you, it’s because of my mother, she’s going to stay in the country for a while, during this period of time I have to stay at home to take care of Wen Niannan.”
“Will we be able to see each other again during this time?”
“Yes, call me when you miss me, I will go to see you.”
“Gu Yansheng, what are you playing? The porridge is already cooked, take it to Nian Nian, he hasn’t eaten yet. ”
Zhou Yuan Feng was extremely loud as if he was trying to make someone hear him.
Gu Yansheng raised his eyes glaring at him, then he hung up the phone after saying something to the other side in a low voice.
When he hung up the phone, Shen Luoan’s expression instantly changed, there wasn’t a sad expression on his face anymore, only a deep hatred in his eyes.
Hearing that Yansheng would be actually feeding Wen Niannan himself, he almost crushed his phone.
So that fossil old woman was there with Zhou Yuanfeng, Wen Niannan would be always attended, and Yansheng would be always next to Wen Niannan. What if Yansheng falls in love with him? If that happens all the hidden things would come to light…With a horrible expression, Shen Luoan stood up, and out of the blue, he took the cutlery throwing them to the ground.
“Bitch! Bitch! Don’t dare to take what is mine! That position is mine, it can only be mine!”
After throwing everything, he looked at the mess on the ground, Shen Luoan gradually calmed down taking out his cell phone to make a call.
“Hello? Uncle.”
Zhou Yuanfeng came out from the kitchen, sitting on the sofa, he took the remote control turning on the TV.
“Who called you a moment ago? Shen Luoan?”
Gu Yansheng looked at him coldly: “Do you even care? Zhou! Yuanfeng!”
“Well…I think it’s pretty smooth, you can consider calling that someone as many times as you wish, it really feels good to be in charge of this huge group company all alone.”
The person at his side didn’t speak, raising his hand, he lit another cigarette.
Zhou Yuanfeng looked at Gu Yansheng deeply, he knew that Yansheng trusted him, but now all the company’s rights were all given to him, an outsider, that inevitably would make Gu Yansheng’s mind not think.
“To be honest, I admire you, I admire you, seeing the company’s condition, which Lu and the family have cultivated, you’ve got the talent and ability, the lion father has no dog, the lion mother has no dog.”
Gazing at the man in front of him for a long time, Gu Yansheng said with impatience: “Didn’t you say that the porridge was cooked? Are you playing with me?”
“I was just playing with you, I was wrong, wait here for a while.”
Zhou Yuanfeng gave him a rare faint smile, leaning on the sofa, neither of them spoke again, but they understood what was in their hearts.
Aunt Lan made the porridge putting it in a bowl, then she placed it on a tray with a spoon and napkins.
“Master, the porridge is ready.”
Gu Yansheng stood up with a cigarette in his hand, walking towards the kitchen to pick up the tray in Aunt Lan’s hand.
Zhou Yuanfeng snatched out the cigarette in Gu Yansheng’s hand throwing it in the trash can before he could take the tray.
“Zhou Yuanfeng, what do you mean by that?” The voice was full of rage, it was clear that the man was angry.
“Didn’t you understand? Niannan can’t stand the smoke, do you even remember that? Or you can only remember Shen Luoan’s hobbies and dislikes?”
Gu Yansheng didn’t say anything more, he went upstairs with the tray, causing a big thud while he was climbing the stairs, making Aunt Lan suppress a giggle.
“It’s been a long time since I saw Mater acting so childish. Master Yuanfeng is indeed our husband’s nemesis.”
Zhou Yuanfeng shook his head helplessly, then he went to the kitchen to help.
