Black Lotus - Chap 82
Shen Luoan had a flustered expression on his face, he hesitated to speak.

“Yansheng, there are some things that I don’t know if I should tell you, originally, I wanted to keep it from you because I was afraid that you’ll start overthinking things, but today, when I saw Tang Shuo with Niannan, and you, beaten like this, I felt worried.”
Gu Yansheng was startled, in a whisper, he said: “What’s the matter? It’s okay to say it.”
“When my uncle went to the company, he saw Tang Shuo’s brother, Tang Lunxuan, coming from the president’s office. My uncle asked Secretary Li and, he told him that the old lady had agreed to cooperate with him, saying…that the Gu Group wanted to invest in Qiyue Group.”
“What are you talking about?” Gu Yansheng’s expression changed suddenly, standing up abruptly.
Why did his mother talk to Tang Lunxuan about a partnership? She clearly knew how much he hated the Tang family, a sudden thought came to his mind, Gu Yansheng’s eyes darkened.
“No wonder she had to go the company. No wonder she suddenly came back from abroad, letting Yuanfeng take control of it, all along, the plan to accompany Wen Niannan to take care of his body was all fake.”

Shen Luoan continued: “Why did Aunt Gu want to invest in Qiyue Group? Doesn’t Auntie know what kind of relationship you have with Tang Shuo?”
“It’s probably because Qiyue Group is the least likely to be under my control, she wants to take advantage of it, and use Qiyue to take control of me.”
Shen Luoan’s eyes flashed, saying: “Did Aunt Gu want to do this from the beginning? I remember…I remember that when Niannan forced me to leave, there were people from the old house following me from behind. I heard them say I couldn’t get the shares that Grandpa left for the future spouse…”
5
Gu Yansheng was shocked, at that time, after Shen Luoan’s disappearance, no matter how he looked for him, there was no trace, how could Wen Niannan have done that alone? It turned out that all that was done by his mother…so it was calculated since then…
“She doesn’t want me to take the reins, my mother had always valued the company and rights more than anything else, after getting married, she transferred part of the shares to Wen Niannan.”
It seemed as if Gu Yansheng had suddenly discovered everything, his eyes were filled with an inexplicable look.
17
“No wonder why she agreed to let me marry Wen Niannan. If you were married to me, then the shares would be the same as giving them to me because we’re one heart, so of course, you would be willing to give me the shares.”
5
“She knows how much I hate Wen Niannan, it’s clearly impossible to move his shares now, that’s why she didn’t allow me to divorce, she wants to use Wen Niannan to counteract me.”
“But why Auntie would do that? Aren’t you her only son? Why won’t she let you go? Does she want to help Zhou Yuanfeng?”
Gu Yansheng glanced at Shen Luoan, raised his head, and laughed at himself: “Compared to his son who annoys her everywhere, she admires Yuanfeng, the one who can be perfect in every field.”
3
A touch of evil flashed in Shen Luoan’s eyes, he stepped forward, comforting him: “Then what are you going to do now? Will auntie agree to your divorce in this situation?”
“Divorce?” Gu Yansheng was astonished when he heard his words.
4
“Niannan and aunt didn’t agree to the divorce, also they removed your rights, while he was having meetings with another man behind your back, Yansheng, I really feel sad for you…”
10
Gu Yansheng looked at the person whose eyes were red, his eyes softened: “I won’t let my mother succeed, also grandpa won’t allow her to control the Gu family.”
“As long as evidence of infidelity can be gathered, the divorce proceedings can start again, the Gu shares in his name can be taken back, as long as there is evidence, everything will be easy.”
1
After hearing him, surprised, Gu Yansheng asked: “Evidence?”
“Yes, maybe you can find a private investigator to follow him. As long as you get the evidence, you could bring the photo to file a divorce lawsuit. Aunt Gu couldn’t stop it even if she wants to, starting from there, you can divorce and get the company’s shares back.”
Stunned, Gu Yansheng heard Shen Luoan’s words, instantly feeling that the person in front of him was a stranger.
Seeing Gu Yansheng staring at him in shock, Shen Luoan realized that he was talking too much.
2
He raised his gaze, saying with embarrassment: “Yansheng, do you think I’m bad? You want to divorce you so much, and I love you, I don’t want to see you being crushed by them, I don’t want to see you aggrieved.”
1
Looking at those red eyes, Gu Yansheng was feeling annoyed at the moment he felt suspicious of Shen Luoan.
36
“I know you’re good for me, also now the only person I can trust is you, Luoan, I’ll find someone to follow Wen Niannan, as long as I get evidence, I will start the procedures. ”
10
Shen Luoan sighed in relief, throwing excitedly himself into Gu Yansheng’s arms.
“Thank you, Yansheng.”
Gu Yansheng hugged Shen Luoan, holding him tightly, his eyes flickered for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
When Wen Niannan came home, he was slightly startled when he looked at the car parked in the yard, then he hopped off, walking into the living room.
“Nian Nian is back home, is it cold outside?” When Lu Yun heard his voice, she approached with a smile.
2
Wen Niannan kept looking the stairs, nodding slightly, he answered: “It’s a little cold.”
Lu Yun saw him constantly looking upstairs, she softly said: “Are you looking for ASheng? He hasn’t come back yet.”
He was surprised, when he heard that Gu Yansheng hadn’t come back: “No? And the car parked outside? ”
“It’s Yuanfeng, ASheng is driving Yuan Feng’s car.”
Just as Wen Niannan was about to say something, suddenly a sound of a car sounded outside, he turned to look.
Gu Yansheng walked in with a sullen face, the door was opened, blowing cold wind, he stepped firmly towards Wen Niannan.
Seeing Gu Yansheng coming back so late, Lu Yun raised her eyes and was about to scold him, but she was shocked when she saw the bruises on his face: “What happened to your face? Who did you fight with?”
“Heh, why don’t you ask the person next to you”.
Lu Yun’s expression was astonished: “Niannan did that? How come?”
“I…”
Out of a sudden, Gu Yansheng said with a hard tone: “Don’t lie, I want you to tell the truth!”
Wen Niannan stared at the person who was looking at him coldly: “Uhm…Tang Shuo…”
“Tang Shuo?”
“Yes, Tang Shuo, the younger brother of the Qiyue Group’s president, do you know him, mother?” said Gu Yansheng with coldness in his tone, looking at Lu Yun meaningfully.
When Lu Yun heard Qiyue Group, her eyes darkened, but she said faintly: “How did you fight? Because of what?”
“Just to compete for something, something I don’t want and I would rather lose it than have it.”
18
Wen Niannan listened to Gu Yansheng’s words, immediately bitterness was placed into his heart.
Lu Yun heard him, frowning, she walked forward to look at his wound, saying: “Have you put it some medicine? Why does it look so badly bruised?”
Just as Gu Yansheng was about to say that he had already put medicine, his glance fixed on the person with his head hanging behind his mother, his eyes deepened.
“I didn’t, no medicine.”
“I’ll tell Uncle Xu to go buy some medicine to heal your wounds, you’ll start with..”
“No, there’s medicine in the room upstairs, I’ll just go back to the room and wipe it.”
Gu Yansheng looked at the man not far away, with an indifferent tone he said: “Let’s go, find the medicine cabinet, I don’t know where it is.”
Then, he got upstairs without looking back, when he realized that the man behind him wasn’t following him, frowning, he looked again: “What are you standing there stupidly? Didn’t you hear what I said?”
Wen Niannan’s eyes flashed, he climbed the stairs, with some doubts in his heart.
Of course, Gu Yansheng knew where the first aid kit was, last time, he used it when he bandaged him, it was impossible for him not to know where it was.
Pushing the door open, Gu Yansheng walked to the sofa, sitting down, he frowned while leaning back on the sofa, and raising his hand to touch the corner of his mouth, he looked at the man in front of him impatiently: “Why are you astounded? Wouldn’t you should be putting it medicine?”
“Didn’t you wipe it off?” All of a sudden an indifferent voice sounded.
Gu Yansheng was taken aback, standing up suddenly as if being seen through him: “What did you say?”
2
“I’ve smelled the disinfectant, it’s obvious that you put some medicine, probably Shen Luoan did it, why should I apply it again?
9
Gu Yansheng looked at Wen Niannan standing two meters away from him carrying the first aid kit, he instantly became angry.
“I told you to do it! And you will do it!”
9
“He wiped it, why should I wipe it again?”
Wen Niannan’s heart was full of bitterness, why every time Shen Luoan had done something, he would tell him to do it, why can’t he get rid of it…
“Why? You’re jealous? Since you can’t stand me and Luoan, why did you want to stab me, why are you trying to separate us so hard? Or why you were born to be a bitch who seduce men all around, if you like Tang Shuo, then follow him, go with him!”
3
Wen Niannan opened his mouth, his voice was trembling: “Do you think I am a whore by nature? In your heart, I’m that inferior to Shen Luoan?”
“You will always be inferior to Luoan, you framed him, snatching his spot, you forced him to leave and go to a strange country, even so, Wen Niannan, you will be destined to live in his shadow, just deserving other’s charity…”
11
“Well, I see…I understand everything…”
9
Wen Niannan’s face showed a bitter expression while taking a step back; as if there was a voice echoing constantly in his head, his head began to hurt violently.
Gu Yansheng looked at the person who had left the room in a daze, out of the blue, he felt an indescribable irritation, he leaned on the sofa, staring at the door in a trance.
The door of the room wasn’t opened that evening, also there was no sound in the corridor outside the door.
Gu Yansheng raised his gaze to look at his wrist but found that the watch didn’t move, it was still at noon, he thought it broke during the fight, so he took it off, throwing it aside, looking at the time on the phone.
It’s 11 o’clock…and Wen Niannan didn’t come back…
Gu Yansheng stood up, irritated, he lit a cigarette, the smoke spread like a fog over the delicate and handsome features of his face through the moonlight.
Until the smoke in his hand ran out, he still didn’t hear any movement outside the door, Gu Yansheng stood up, walking over, he opened the door.
There was an extraordinary silence in the corridor, he walked to the stairs to look at the living room downstairs, but no one was there.
Frowning, he went downstairs, just about to walk to the living room, he ran into Aunt Lan who was coming out from the balcony.
“Auntie Lan, where did Wen Niannan go?”
“Sir? Sir, he went to sleep early.”
Gu Yansheng was surprised when he heard it: “Is he sleeping? But he didn’t return to the room…”
“Sir went to the guest room to sleep, out of the blue, he said that he wanted to rest there.”
Wen Niannan…went to the guest room to sleep?
