Black Lotus - Chap 8

In the hospital, Uncle Xu was changing the gauze on Wen Niannan’s head. After he untied it, he saw the deep wound on his forehead, the sore in his eyes could be seen.

“Uncle Xu, I’m fine.” Wen Niannan said while looking at Uncle Xu who was wiping his tears.

“How can it be okay? This time, your husband has crossed the line. Sir, you’ve always been afraid of leaving scars on your body. Such deep wounds will definitely leave scars.”

Wen Niannan listened to Xu Shu choked voice up while he was embracing himself, and bitterness arose in his heart. Wen Niannan only felt a sore nose, and looked up at the window, holding back the tears that were about to well.

“I used to be afraid of leaving scars because Yansheng didn’t like it. I…I was afraid that he would dislike the appearance of scars on my body. He likes immaculate things and doesn’t like flaws, but now I…I’m already…flawed.” After the words fell, tears couldn’t stop streaming down, Shen Luoan had a way to get in him, he didn’t hope to enter Gu Yansheng’s heart when he’s not there. Now that he is back, does he really have a chance?

Is Wen Niannan right to suspect that back then he was insisting on marrying Gu Yansheng? He remembers the scene of a young angel in a white suit smiling while playing the piano, the one that was printed in his heart.

When Wen Niannan was 15 years old, he went with his father to the birthday party of the Gu’s family father. He became extremely inferior due to being bullied by children of the same age when he lost his mother.

The rich kid who was teased again was locked in a cabinet. Wen Niannan cried and begged them to let them out, but no one responded outside.

The small body curled up in the cabinet, and the crying gradually weakened. Suddenly the door was opened, a young man in a white suit stretched out his hand to him. Wen Niannan threw himself into his arms and burst into tears. The young man patted his back stiffly and cried, after some time the sound gradually stopped.

Someone was calling someone’s name in the distance. The young man stood up and was about to leave. Suddenly he was grabbed by his clothes, the person wiping his tears slowly uttered two words: “Thank you.” Wen Niannan made sure that he didn’t see any trace of cry on his face. After wiping his face, he pretended to be calm and returned to his father.

At that moment, there was a sound of exclamation in the center of the hall, and everyone surrounded them. Wen Niannan and his father also walked over. He was stunned with only one glance.

It was him…a young man in a white suit was sitting in front of a piano playing a skillful melody, the light on his face lined his facial features, making them more delicate and confusing, everyone was trying to guess who the young man was.

Wen Niannan felt that that mere scene had been imprinted in his heart forever, he couldn’t calm down, looking carefully at the young man intoxicated in music.

At the end of the song, the boy opened his eyes and looked at the people around him without emotion, he nodded.

Old man Gu came over and hugged the young man, smiling he said: “Haha, that song was great. Yansheng’s gift to grandpa was amazing.” The people around him took a deep breath, it turned out to be the grandson of Old Man Gu. The only son of the Lu family and the Gu family would be the terrible person in charge of the Gu family in the future.

“Come, let me introduce to you, this is my grandson who just returned from abroad, the next heir to the Gu family, Gu Yansheng .”

Since then, Gu Yansheng’s name was printed in Wen Niannan’s heart, and after returning home, he went around to inquire about him, pestering his father to take him to the business gatherings just to get closer to Gu Yansheng.
