Black Lotus - Chap 89
he Gu family and the Qin family had been rivals since the beginning; when Lu Yun was in power, the Qin family secretly did not know how much it had made her want to break down, people in the business circle were saying that the Qin family had been staring at Gu Yansheng, they wanted to get rid of their heir.
For a long moment, a hurt Qin Qibai didn’t stand up because of the pain, the secretary behind him quickly walked over to help him up.
“Little Gu, are you crazy? How could you hit someone?”
As if he hadn’t heard him, Gu Yansheng walked towards Qin Qibai who had just got up, he clenched his fist, punching him in the nose.
“Apologize to him!”
Qin Qibai had never practiced martial arts, he hadn’t had the skills, so obviously wasn’t Gu Yansheng’s opponent, cursing, he raised his hand to wipe his nosebleed: “Gu Yansheng, you lunatic! You’re crazy, you’re the fucking one who beat me first, and you want me to apologize?”
Gu Yansheng turned his head to look at the frightened Shen Luoan, he bluntly: “Which hand did he use to touch you? I’ll disappear it for you.”
Once he heard him, Qin Qibai froze, then he turned to escape, but suddenly he was being violently pressed against the ground, his head hit to the ground, his eyes were blurring.
Gu Yansheng’s eyes were a little sloppy, raising his hand, he punched him madly in the face as if releasing everything: “Who let you touch him? Who let you touch him? You dare to run to me, you make me feel sick!”
There was some blurriness, the man in front of him was distorted, Gu Yansheng was shocked for a moment, shaking his head, he looked down, seeing Tang Shuo’s face…
Out of the blue, Gu Yansheng punched Qin Qibai one after another, his eyes became particularly dangerous.
“Don’t take him away! Don’t touch him! Don’t see him again! Even if you dare to go against me, would you even dare to take him away? Who do you think you are?”

Seeing that there was something wrong with him, Mr. Jiang quickly turned his head, saying with anger in his voice: “What are you doing there frozen? Why aren’t you going to pull them apart!”
Some of the people who stood by and watched the show, stood aside, letting the secretary pull them apart, Shen Luoan rushed over.
“Yansheng, don’t hit him, I’m not angry anymore, my face doesn’t hurt anymore.”
Gu Yansheng came back to his senses when he heard Shen Luoan’s voice, he looked at Qin Qibai on the ground for a moment. He got up a little dizzy, holding the chair to support himself, he rubbed his head, then he turned his head, looking at the person behind him.
“You little bitch, one behind the other, it was you who beat me moments ago, now you’re pretending to be innocent, believe it or not, immediately…”
“Enough! Today, we’re here to talk about the company’s project, not to watch you fight!”
Mr. Jiang slammed the table, standing up, he turned around, saying to Qin Qibai: “Mr. Qin, don’t get it too personal, Mr. Gu was a little tipsy after drinking a few glasses of wine a while ago.”
Qin Qibai snorted after hearing that, he said: “Drunk? This reason is really far-fetched, do you think I don’t know that he isn’t drunk? Xiao Zhao, go and call someone, I must kill him today.”
“So, you don’t want this project anymore, do you?”
“Well, for President Jiang’s sake, I’ll give up on this.”
President Jiang finally said a few words about each company’s proposal, finally announcing that it was Gu Yansheng who got the project, Qin Qibai’s face changed, standing up abruptly.
“What? So is this going to be to the kid Gu Yansheng? Mr. Jiang, didn’t you tell my father was going to be his before, didn’t you say that the Qin family was first on the line?”
“Yes, it was true that the Qin family was the first choice after seeing some houses of their own, but that was before I heard the Gu Group’s plan, and after listening to the Gu’s plan today, so I made a decision.”
Gu Yansheng sat aside, feeling his head dizzier and dizzier, looking at the people in front of him in a trance.
President Jiang stood up, looking at the people behind him, his tone was indifferent: “Today’s game was so gone, I look forward to working with you next time.”
“Xiao Li, take Manager Gu to his home, I think he is very drunk, go back and give him some hangover soup.”
“Okay.”

Xiao Li quickly approached them to help Gu Yansheng walk toward the outside door, Shen Luoan also stretched his hand to support the other arm.
Several people walked out of the room, Qin Qibai looked with rage at Gu Yansheng walking in front of him, his eyes full of coldness.
“Gu Yansheng, you and I will wait, today this debt is settled, sooner or later I will make you regret what you did today!”
“President Qin, how can you make someone regret what they did today? You couldn’t beat him, you also couldn’t snatch the project from his hands, didn’t you see that Jiang’s scale was inclined to Gu Yansheng?”
“No matter whatever you say, it was inevitable for the future of the project, also he lost to Gu’s family, and he was knocked to the ground like a dog, tsk, we can’t stand aside, it’s a real mess.”
Qin Qibai watched several people looking at him with mockery, the rage in his eyes became deeper, clenching his fists, he gritted his teeth, and said: “Gu Yansheng…”
He looked at Gu Yansheng and Shen Luoan not far away, his eyes suddenly flashed.
“The husband of the Gu Group…”

“It seems that Gu Yansheng cares so much about his husband, interesting, now let’s have some fun, I know how to make this kid give up on the project, and his bitch I’m not going to let him go!”
Qin Qibai waved irritably, and the secretary behind him handed him his cell phone.
“Hey, Sun Qi, I got a job for you.”
Xiao Li helped Gu Yansheng get in the car, closing the door behind him, he looked at Shen Luoan, lowering his head, he said: “Mr. Gu is a bit drunk. I will take him back first. Mr. Shen, I’m sorry, now Mr. Gu is not sober, I don’t want to worry about handing him over to others, in case someone can misunderstand.”
After that, he opened the door, getting in the car, driving away from the hotel, leaving behind a pale-faced Shen Luoan frozen in his spot.
Xiao Li parked the car in the yard, then he opened the door to help Gu Yansheng get out, shouting toward the house: “Uncle Xu! Uncle Xu, are you there? Come and help me.”
Xu Shu heard the voice calling him, he walked out, running fast to help when he saw Gu Yansheng’s appearance: “What happened? Why did he drink so much wine?”
The two of them helped Gu Yansheng go to the sofa and poured a glass of water.
“After talking to Mr. Jiang and the people from the other groups about the project, Mr. Gu didn’t know what was going on. When he got there, he poured himself a glass, beating Mr. Qin from the Qin family after.”
“What? Did Master hit someone from the Qin family? Master Yuanfeng wasn’t there, why didn’t you stop him, Xiao Li?”
“At that time, Shen Luoan was also there, and Mr. Shen Luoan was touched by Xiao Qin’s hands, no one at the scene stopped him, I…I wasn’t very good…”
Uncle Xu suddenly heard noises, turning around quickly to look at the stairs, Wen Niannan was coming down from the stairs.
“S…Sir”
Wen Niannan turned his head looking at the man on the sofa who kept rubbing his head, he said faintly: “Is he drunk?”
“Yes, master drank too much alcohol while he was talking about the project, we just came back.”
“Tell Aunt Lan to cook a bowl of sober soup and help him go to the room to lie down for a bit.”
When Wen Niannan said that, he turned around trying to go upstairs.
“Sir.”
“Huh? Is there anything else?” Wen Niannan turned, looking at Uncle Xu with suspicion.
“Uhm…Xiao Li needs to hurry to return to the company, there are some things he has to take care of, I can’t lift Master, Sir, can you help me with him?”

Xu Shu turned his head, winking at Xiao Li, then he glanced at the door.
“Ah…yes, I have something to do, it’s an urgent matter, so I will leave first.”
“Wait, Xiao Li, you…” Wen Niannan was a little startled while he was staring at Xiao Li who was driving away in a hurry.
“Sir, I’ll bring your husband upstairs, please come and help me.”
Wen Niannan looked again at the man on the sofa, frowning and closing his eyes, he froze, his eyes flickered slightly with his lips tightened.
“Okay.”
Uncle Xu helped Gu Yansheng reach the bed, placing his head on the pillow, then he turned his head to the man standing behind him: “Sir, please take care of your husband here, I will make the sober soup.”
“By…by myself? Uncle Xu, it’s preferable if I go to make the soup…”
“No need, no need,” said Xu Shu, waving his hand, quickly walking out, finally closing the door.
Wen Niannan leaned on the closet, looking at Gu Yansheng, who was peacefully sleeping on the bed, with an inexplicable expression in his eyes.
“Um… my head hurts…so painful…”
The man in the bed suddenly moved, his brow frowned, and seemed to feel a little sick, with panic in his eyes, Wen Niannan stepped back, afraid that Gu Yansheng would wake up.
Maybe because he really drank too much, Gu Yansheng fell asleep once again, muttering something.
“My head hurts …”
Wen Niannan hesitated when he saw that he held his head hard looking in pain, finally, he got closer pressing his head gently with his hands.
Looking at the man in bed gradually relaxing his brows, a trace of sadness appeared in Wen Niannan’s eyes.
What are you doing again? Didn’t you say you don’t care anymore…why do you feel softened when you see him in pain…
“Gu Yansheng…have you ever thought that a teenager who had no intention of rescuing you would have done this to you? If you would know the consequences, would you regret helping me?”
“I always thought that I was grateful to you, it wasn’t until then that I realized that I liked you…but I was too afraid, too afraid to say it, afraid enough to only dare to watch you from behind, not daring to get closer…”
“Gu Yansheng…if…it would be great if we didn’t meet from the beginning, we wouldn’t be as tired as we are if we didn’t all know how good we should be.”
“Why stretch out your hand to pull me out of that darkness, but cover me in the mud at will, why give me hope but cruelly take it away…”
Wen Niannan’s eyes were a little red, showing all the pain, he stood up ready to leave.
“Don’t go, don’t go…”
Wen Niannan froze in place, his face white as a sheet, he slowly turned his head to look at Gu Yansheng.
“Don’t go… let me see… your face…necklace…your necklace is here with me, don’t go…”

What Gu Yansheng suddenly said left a surprised Wen Niannan. Gu Yansheng was dreaming, dreaming about the kidnapping that happened that year.
When the quilt slipped down, Wen Niannan raised his hands to cover him, but out of the blue, a strong hand caught his, holding him tightly, finally pulling him abruptly into Gu Yansheng’s arms.

The panic could be seen in Wen Niannan’s eyes, raising his head, he looked at the so closed delicate face, struggling to get away to sit up, trying hard to pull his hand out, but was held tight.
The rings on their fingers met each other, a little surprised, Wen Niannan raised his gaze looking at the man on the bed.
