The phone showed a text message from Tang Shuo, Wen Niannan’s expression changed instantly when he saw the content of the message.

[Niannan, are you still going to the hospital today? Can I go with you?]
[I’m at the gate of Yifeng Street, can I enter and be with you?]
Tang Shuo came here to meet me? Is he crazy…
Wen Niannan quickly got up, running outside. When he arrived at the door, he saw Tang Shuo arguing with the security guard at the door, about to fight.

“Tang Shuo!”
Tang Shuo stopped as soon as he heard the voice, slowly raised his gaze, seeing Wen Niannan coming, he stepped back a few steps, then he walked to the car.
The security guard put on his hat, as he approached, he nodded respectfully: “Hello, Mr. Wen, is this your friend? He keeps trying to go in, saying that he is your friend, I wasn’t sure about that, that’s why I didn’t let him in.”
“Yes, it’s my friend, I’ll just go out and talk to him a little bit, sorry to cause you trouble.”
Wen Niannan walked towards the black cross country, looking at the person with his head down, not daring to speak, his tone was a little angry: “Why did you come here to meet me so suddenly? Are you crazy?”
Tang Shuo leaned against the car without opening his mouth, when he heard Wen Niannan’s words, he suddenly raised his head, he was staring at him with scary red eyes.
Wen Niannan was a little frightened when he saw him like that, he felt that his tone was too harsh, sighing: “Sorry, I shouldn’t have been so harsh to you.”
“Niannan…I…I may not be able to see you in the future, this is the last time, I’ll not come back to disturb you again…”
Tang Shuo’s face was a little pale, he looked away while he lowered his head, not daring to look at Wen Niannan.
To leave him was the only good thing Tang Shuo could do, there wouldn’t be a need to worry about being hated by the Gu family.
But when Wen Niannan heard a different tone from him than before, afraid that Tang Shuo was being threatened, he worriedly asked: “Is he threatening you?”
“I knew that you were hurt because of me, and it was also because of me that you were getting less and less happy, I was looking for you to make you happy, I didn’t want you to become even more unhappy because of me, so I won’t bother you again.”
Tang Shuo suddenly covered his eyes, tears couldn’t stop flowing down, his shoulders were trembling as if to forcibly suppress the cry.
The boy who used to look at him with a bright smile on his face unknowingly had grown up into a man about one meter and eighty centimeters, but now he was crying like a child, stubbornly wiping the tears from his face with his arm.
“Niannan…I…I don’t want to give up, my heart hurts, I feel bad, but I don’t want to make you unhappy, sorry to make you suffer so much because of me…sorry…sorry…sorry…”
Tang Shuo kept repeating sorry, sobbing, his voice was intermittent, trying to suppress it, his sleeves were wet by the tears.
Wen Niannan froze in place, his eyes full of pain, he looked at the man who was wiping his tears, he gently grasped the corner of his clothes full of tears.
“Tang Shuo…there is no need to apologize to me, neither you made me unhappy, don’t feel sorry for me, don’t suffer for me, these are all my own sufferings, you shouldn’t bear them for me.”
“You’re right, it’s my fault, understood? It’s my fault, once you leave me, you’ll live better and happier than now.”
You will be safer than now…
Wen Niannan took out a handkerchief from his pocket, handing it to him, but a surprised Tang Shuo didn’t pick it up.
Wen Niannan looked at Tang Shuo, who was looking at him with a shocked expression, he sighed lightly: “Take care well of the studio, I know you love music from the bottom of your heart, you have the talent and the ability, don’t give it up just because of me, it’s just as it is, please continue to pursue your dream for me? Promise that to me.”
“Tang Shuo, can you continue to shine like a sunflower? You have always been very dazzling, don’t let your light go away, okay?”
“Okay…Niannan, I will do my best not to let you down.”
Wen Niannan saw that Tang Shuo finally controlled his emotions, when he remembered the reason why he had come, he raised his head, scanning around to make sure no one was there.
“Tang Shuo, hurry up, don’t let others see you, I don’t want you to be in trouble.”
“I…I don’t know when would be the next time I see you, let me take a good look at you…”
“Tang Shuo, in case someone comes…”
Out of a sudden, Tang Shuo ignored Wen Niannan’s refusal, he stepped forward, hugging him.
Wen Niannan knocked his chin on Tang Shuo’s shoulder, he began to struggle when he reacted: “Tang Shuo let me go! Let me go, you know I don’t like physical contact, don’t make me angry.”
“Just bear it for a moment please, just for a moment, then you’ll be fine, don’t turn me down, please?”
Listening to his crying voice, Wen Niannan softened immediately, the still struggling hand was lowered, he didn’t push him away.
But neither of them noticed the slowly approaching car behind them, the car parked and a pair of black leather shoes stepped on the ground.
“It’s really a wonderful show, do you want me to applaud?” Gu Yansheng’s chilly gritted teeth suddenly sounded from behind him.
When Wen Niannan heard the noise, his body froze all over, standing still without daring to look, Tang Shuo let go of his hold then he turned to look behind him.
Gu Yansheng opened wide the car door, hopping off, he stared at Wen Niannan behind Tang Shuo with a gloomy expression and cold eyes.
“Since you’re so reluctant to leave your little lover, why don’t take him to the house for a meeting while I’m away, right? By the way, you can also take him to the room, perhaps you’ve already done it many times when I’m not here.”
As soon as Gu Yansheng returned to the company, he realized his mother had lost some of his projects, so in the afternoon, he had to talk to some of the company’s chief executives about the partnerships, when looking through the documents, he found that one was missing, so he asked Xiao Li to drive him to pick up the documents.
Many maple trees were planted on the sides of Yifeng District, Gu Yansheng looked at the maple trees outside in a daze, frowning, he looked away.
As the car slowly approached the gate of the block, Gu Yansheng indifferently rolled his eyes, suddenly staring at it, seeing a familiar black off-car and the two men standing next to the car…
Xiao Li saw Wen Niannan, somewhat panicked, he said: “Mr. Gu, that seems to be…husband…person…”
“Park!”
The car door was slammed shut, Xiao Li sat in the car too scared to speak, lowering his head.
Tang Shuo felt the man behind him trembling, he tried to reach out to hold Wen Niannan’s hand, but he avoided it, Wen Niannan tightened his lips, his eyes flickering slightly, they were full of fear, he shook his head to Tang Shuo lightly.
“Are you dumb, Wen Niannan? I think you ate the heart of a Leopard, that’s why you dare to bring him in front of me to disgust me!”
Tang Shuo opened his mouth to refute, but Gu Yansheng stopped him before he could even speak.
When Gu Yansheng saw Wen Niannan not talking and hiding behind Tang Shuo, he was angrier: “You do things and you shut up! When are you going to speak for him? Why is it all about Tang Shuo? Perhaps he’s dumb? ”
“What else can I say? Are you going to believe even if I say it?” Wen Niannan pushed Tang Shuo to the side, standing in front, he looked at the man in front of him, his eyes full of self-deprecation.
“What else do you want to deny? What else can you deny? You kept meeting with him again and again, and now you dare to bring him here, and you dare to say that Tang Shuo and you are innocent?”
“I don’t have anything with Niannan, I was the only one blindly bothering him, he never returned… ”
Gu Yansheng, out of the blue, interrupted Tang Shuo’s words, with a tone of indifference said: “Young Master Tang, does your father know that the person you like is married? Do you need me to tell him the urge you have to get married as soon as possible?”
“Do you think I will be threatened by you? Sooner or later, I will take Niannan away from you, he will follow me willingly.”
“You dare!”
“You don’t love him at all, you don’t deserve him, you are just a mad dog who beats his husband every time he can!”
“Tang Shuo, don’t you know whose territory is this? I think you don’t want to leave from here alive, Xiao Li!”
“Yes, Mr. Gu.”
“Call some people.”
Xiao Li was a little surprised when he heard that, he cautiously said: “Gu…Mr. Gu, Qiyue is the company that the old lady is focusing on with the cooperation.”
“You won’t fight? Okay, I will fight.”
Gu Yansheng loosened his tie while glancing at Tang Shuo, he took out his cell phone, dialing some number, trying to take it to his ear, but he was stopped, the cell phone was snatched suddenly.
The phone was picked, a man’s voice came from the other end: “Hey, Mr. Gu.”
Wen Niannan looked at the cell phone, raising his hand he hung up, stopping the voice, Wen Niannan got closer to Tang Shuo like to protect him, looking at him with a fierce expression.
“Let him go…let him go…he just came to say goodbye to me today, he will never come back again.”
With irony, Gu Yansheng looked at Wen Niannan’s sudden panicked expression because he was about to call someone to beat Tang Shuo.
He took a step forward, grabbing Wen Niannan’s hand, yelling: “Wen Niannan! Who do you think I am? A fool who would be fooled by you?”
“Tang Shuo said it again that I wouldn’t be capable of doing anything to him? Do you think Gu is a vegetarian? Believe it or not, as long as I declare that Qiyue is an enemy, the Tang family can be swallowed alive by other groups! ”
“I don’t understand.” A sudden and irrelevant remark was pointed by Wen Niannan.
Instead of being intimidated, Wen Niannan raised his eyes, looking straight into Gu Yansheng’s eyes, indifferently he said: “I don’t know why you care so much about whether I am going to meet Tang Shuo on my own will, I don’t understand why you were angry at seeing me go to the library with Tang Shuo, even you ignored Shen Luoan who was next to you, I don’t understand why you suddenly asked me to apply medicine to you.”
There was a strange color flashing in Gu Yansheng’s eyes, he didn’t speak, and he didn’t understand why his eyes were following Wen Niannan every time.
“Like now, I don’t understand why you get so nervous when you heard Tang Shuo say that he wants to take me away from you, before, even if you saw him talking to me, there was only disgust and disdain in your eyes, but now there aren’t there.”
Wen Niannan squeezed his hand, his eyes flickered slightly, and his voice was trembling: “Gu Yansheng, I can explain it as if…you’re jealous?”
Gu Yansheng was stunned, his face changed in an instant, he threw away Wen Niannan’s hand, his tone became particularly somber: “What? Jealous?”
“Wen Niannan, you look up to yourself too much, who do you think you are? Do you think everyone is captivated by you like Tang Shuo? With someone like you, a hypocrite like you, how could I be jealous of you?!”
