Black Lotus - Chap 91
Wen Niannan looked at the broken ring, the blood on his face was gone, his heart seemed to be cut wildly, he muttered in a low tone: “Why take away my only thought…”
“No…I will fix it…I will fix it…”
Wen Niannan drove to the ring’s brand store, walking in panic, placing carefully the ring in his hand onto the counter.
“He…hello, I want to fix the ring.”
When the clerk heard him coming, he smiled politely: “Okay sir, I’ll check it for you.”
“Uhm? Sir, your ring doesn’t belong to our brand?” asked suspiciously the clerk while taking the ring in his hand, checking every angle of it.
Wen Niannan was stunned as soon as he heard that: “How is it possible? I remember clearly that it belongs to your brand, also the name of your brand was written on the ring box, how could I remember it wrong?”
“Sir, how could my ring break like this? It’s so bad as the quality of the work, how could it be mine.”

“But”
“This ring is indeed our style, and it is also engraved with the name of our brand, this ring is called “Eternity”, it’s a limited edition, there are only ten pairs in the world, the pattern can also be customized according to the buyer’s personal requirements, but the ring here is fake, the “Eternity” ring is made of special materials, making it impossible to break.”

“Your material is an ordinary ring material, how could it be the famously known”Eternity” wedding ring that lasts longer than love, are you sure you bought it at our stores?”
Wen Niannan, with a consternated face, listened to the clerk say the so-called “Eternity” marriage ring was fake, he froze in place, there was a twitching pain in his heart.
Is it fake?
10
Why is it fake?
5
Was Gu Yansheng deceived?
But how Gu Yansheng couldn’t see if the ring was true or not, the pattern and inscription were decided by the buyer, his mother also told him that he specially went abroad to make it, couldn’t be fake.
A thought crashed in Wen Niannan’s mind, his body abruptly felt extremely cold.
Or…the one in his hand was fake, while the one on Gu Yansheng’s hand was real.
Eternity…it was ironic that its name was eternity…
Wen Niannan looked at the ring in his hand that once he cherished as a treasure, the bitterness could be seen in his eyes.
The rings are fake…you ordered two but gave me the fake one, even the ring is fake, am I that small that I don’t even deserve to own a ring?
24
“Sir? Sir? Do you still need to repair this? It’s a violent crash, it’s also severely broken, there will be a clear trace even if it is well repaired.”
He had never removed the ring in those years, nor had he been destroyed, the ring only fell off yesterday and was crushed by Gu Yansheng’s car…
Wen Niannan looked at the broken ring on the table, with an indifferent tone, he said: “Repair it, it is better to have marks, it is better to leave traces…”
Wen Niannan looked at the ring mark on the ring finger of his right hand with great irony.
Turned out that Gu Yansheng didn’t take off the ring during the years because he was liking this marriage, not for good looks, or because he forgot to take it off.
It was originally fake from the beginning, it ended up that the most cherished thing in his heart was a fake ring, Gu Yansheng even deliberately made a fake ring of exactly the same style?
The reason why Gu Yansheng wore it all the time was just to remind him that Wen Niannan was always false…
When he thought of Gu Yansheng’s impatient look when he put the ring on him at the wedding, the look of disgust was so obvious in his eyes, that he didn’t notice it.
Wen Niannan’s hand trembled a little as he drove back, the shaking didn’t stop until the car stopped in front of the villa.

Opening the car door, he looked at the lighted house in front of him, he felt trapped inside as if in a huge cage, all Wen Niannan could felt was resignation.
Aunt Lan came out with the kettle, a little puzzled when she saw Wen Niannan still standing by the car without coming in.
“Sir, you’re back.”
Only then Wen Niannan came back to his senses, walking in with the emotion in his eyes.
The living room was silent, Wen Niannan looked at the empty couch in the living room, then he went upstairs.
“Sir, wait, the old lady called moments ago, she said she would come back early with Young Master Yuanfeng to go to Mrs. Jiang’s banquet tomorrow.”
1
“All right.”
Wen Niannan walked upstairs, in a trance, just after reaching the middle of the stairs, a pair of familiar black leather shoes appeared in front of him.
He slowly raised his gaze to look up at the owner of the shoes, Gu Yansheng stared at him with a gloomy face, there were chills in his eyes.
“You dare to go out?”
Wen Niannan released the grip holding the handrail, he subconsciously stepped back, somewhat against his approach.
When Gu Yansheng saw the resistance in his eyes, the chills in his eyes became worse, he took a step forward.
“You dare to hide from me? Why, you know, didn’t you look like you were afraid of me when you brought the little lover home yesterday?”
Aunt Lan was surprised when she heard it: “Bring him home? What are you talking about, master? Sir, yesterday he didn’t…”
“Shut up!”
“How do I know if you haven’t been bought by him! Maybe you and Uncle Xu have kept it from telling me many times!”
Gu Yansheng was irritable all day long, he didn’t expect Wen Niannan to go out after he was in a meeting with Tang Shuo the day before.
It seems that last night when he took care of him was just to gain sympathy because he was afraid that he would be angry, how he could be sincere.
“What about transferring shares to me and also stay away from me, but instead you pretend to be pitiful and refuse to divorce in front of my mother, and keep saying that it is not because of Gu’s money but let my mother invest in your father; if that’s not your purpose why can’t you agree to the divorce?”
“Now that I’m in charge of Gu’s family power, and you won’t get the benefit of it, you ran to hook up with the Tang family, you also knew that Tang Shuo’s brother won’t let him see you again, so you couldn’t wait to take him home?”
3
Looking at the face of the man in front of him, his face getting paler and paler, his tight lips made his eyes sink, there was a strange emotion in Gu Yansheng’s heart.
The strange feeling in his heart came back again, his chest was very uncomfortable, he didn’t like this tricky feeling, which made him feel unhappy and more upset.
“Wen Niannan, how low are you still involved with me, having two men at the same time, do you think you can act as a good person to gain my sympathy just because you took care of me while I was drunk?”
8
Listening to Gu Yansheng’s words, Wen Niannan raised his eyes, saying coldly: “Tang Shuo is innocent, I have no shame in meeting him, I didn’t want to divorce you because of your money, I pretended to take care of you because I was seeking for your sympathy, now it’s ok, isn’t it? Can I go up now?”
“At last you admit it? Finally, you confessed that you took the initiative to seduce Tang Shuo.”
Gu Yansheng glanced at the cellphone in Wen Niannan’s hand, with a cold tone he said: “That cellphone deceives me.”
“What are you going to do?”
Gu Yansheng grabbed the phone, slamming it on the stairs, the phone shattered into pieces.
“You don’t need it, it is just a tool for you to contact your little lover, what other friends can you have?”
“Yes, I have no friends, he is the only one, but he will be threatened and beaten because of me, now I don’t have any friends anymore, are you satisfied?”
Wen Niannan always kept a distance of three steps from him, lowered his eyes and said slowly, there seemed to be something flickering in his eyes.
Gu Yansheng was even more irritable looking at his lifeless look, and stepped forward to approach him.
“Satisfied? Who allowed you to bring him here? Who gave you the permission to tell him the address? Who allowed you to go out under the name of Mrs. Gu to shame your family? If you want to fool around with him, let’s break off our marriage!”

“I have never lost the face of Gu’s family. Why should I admit what I haven’t done?”
“Are you still arguing?”
1
Gu Yansheng stretched out his hand to grab Wen Niannan’s hair, Wen Niannan subconsciously stepped back in fear, but he forgot that he was on the stairs.
“Oh…”
Wen Niannan subconsciously grabbed Gu Yansheng’s clothes, who knew he would also pull Gu Yansheng down, together, they fell down the stairs.
“Oh my god, sir, are you okay?”
Wen Niannan fell onto the carpet when he fell, but fortunately unharmed.
“No… it’s okay, there was a carpet on the ground.”
Wen Niannan turned around, looking at the man behind him, just as he was about to say something, but saw the watch on Gu Yansheng’s wrist, his eyes flickered slightly.
Gu Yansheng pushed the person in front of him away as he stood up, he coldly said: “Who let you hide? Are you willing to let Tang Shuo hug you but you don’t want me to touch you? What innocent!

“I don’t want you to touch me or touch you.”
Perhaps because of the ring, Wen Niannan was choking in his heart, it was ironic to see him wearing the watch he had given him.
He was preparing to give a genuine gift for a long time for their wedding anniversary, but the other person even gave him a fake wedding ring.
Aunt Lan saw that they were going to fight again, but this time, Wen Niannan was no longer weak, equally, she was anxious that they would fight once more.
Suddenly the sound of a car coming from outside the door could be heard, relieved and feeling that the savior was back, she quickly walked to the door, shouting from there: “Old lady, Master Yuanfeng, you’re back!”
Gu Yansheng snorted as soon as he heard Aunt Lan’s voice, turning to the living room, he sat down on the sofa.
Wen Niannan stood motionless at the top of the stairs, gently stroking the ring on his right with his left hand.
Zhou Yuanfeng and Lu Yun entered one after another, immediately noticing the tense atmosphere.
Lu Yun glanced at Wen Niannan’s eyes, an unusual color flashed in her eyes, raising her eyes, she smiled: “Niannian, come and sit down, I have something to say.”
1
Wen Niannan walked to the sofa, sitting down in the far corner with his head down, Lu Yun stared at Gu Yansheng and said: “This time the project with President Jiang has been fulfilled, the cooperation between the two companies will take Gu Group to the next level, you did a good job.”
“Tomorrow is Mrs. Jiang’s birthday party, he sent me an invitation, you will go with Nian Nian, Mr. Jiang will introduce you to the banquet.”
“Take him? Wen Niannan is not a member of the company, why he would go there? I can just take Yuan Feng.”
“Shut up!”
“You brought Shen Luoan to talk about the project, I haven’t asked you to settle the account yet! What kind of person is he! You dare to take him to shame, this time, the people from other groups will also be at Mrs. Jiang’s birthday, the other heirs will take their lovers too, you are already married, what would it be if you go there without Nian Nian?
“Lover? He deserves it too! I have never admitted that he was my lover.”
