Black Lotus

Wen Niannan’s throat was dry and uncomfortable. He tiresomely sat up and drank the cup of water beside his bed.

After drinking the water, he felt slightly refreshed, but before he was even able to place the cup back down onto his nightstand, he heard Gu Yansheng’s voice. His eyes flashed in fear, and he subconsciously hid into the blanket.

The quarrel downstairs was growing intense, Wen Niannan was worried about what was happening, so he hesitantly pulled off the blankets and slowly got out of bed.

Struggling to even hold the handrail of the stairs while walking down, Wen Niannan could feel that his head was still in severe pain. Suddenly, hearing the mom’s voice, Wen Niannan stopped in place.

He stood still and listened to the mother and son quarrel. Tears, for some reason, started slipping down from his face, dripping from his chin to the cold floor.

Wen Niannan felt as if he was in a cold ice cellar.

So, that is why… Gu Yansheng already proposed to Shen Luoan… So, I am the reason why they are mad at each other… So, Gu Yansheng would rather sever all relationships with the Gu Family than stay with me…

Sever all relationships with the Gu Family… That won’t do…

He wiped away the tears on his face and walked down the stairs, just as Lu Yun was raising her hand to slap Gu Yansheng.

Lu Yun was the first to realize what happened. From Wen Niannan’s red eyes, she knew that he had heard all the words just now. Lu Yun slowly walked over, fearing that she might frighten him.

“Nian Nian, you finally woke up? You should’ve stayed on the bed a little longer. You need to take care of your own body. Here, let me help you back up. ”

Wen Niannan looked at Lu Yun with his sluggish eyes and then looked at Gu Yansheng. There seemed to be a change in his eyes.

Lu Yun turned back and shouted to Gu Yansheng, who was standing in the distance, “Gu Yansheng! What are you standing there for? Come and help Nian Nianup! ”

“He can come down by himself, so why can’t he go back up? He’s playing with you again. ”

From behind, Zhou Yuanfeng suddenly kicked Gu Yansheng. Feeling the pain in his leg, Gu Yansheng looked back at him and saw his friend winking to let him go over to his mom.

Unwillingly, he walked over with a cold face and said while gritting his teeth, “Fine, weakling, I’ll carry him up again. ”

“No… I can go up on my own…”

Before Wen Niannan was able to finish, Gu Yansheng already brought Wen Niannan in his arms. Gu Yansheng lowered his head to Wen Niannan’s ear and softly said, “Don’t play tricks with me and stop moving. ”

“Carry him gently, can’t you see that his body is still very weak? Don’t forget to cover him up with a blanket. Yuan Feng and I still have something to talk about, we will be up there in a moment.” ”

Lu Yun said softly to the man in Gu Yansheng’s arms: “Nian Nian, mom will go up to see you in a moment. If this boy still dares to bully you, you just tell me, okay?”

Wen Nian Nan nodded stiffly: “Okay. ”

Gu Yansheng, with a gloomy face, carried Wen Niannan upstairs. While walking, he accidentally tripped on the stairs. The person in his arms got scared and grabbed onto his neck.

The two paused in that weird position for a second, and Gu Yansheng looked down at Wen Niannan. Wen Niannan quickly took his hands back and lowered his head.

After gently opening the door and placing the person down on the bed, Gu Yansheng was about to return downstairs. 

“Wait.” Wen Niannan was still looking down and was grabbing tightly on his blanket as if was making a difficult decision.

Gu Yansheng looked back impatiently and stared at the person in front of him, “What do you want? ”

“Are you really going to break away from the Gu Family just because you want to divorce me? Do you hate me that much? ”

“Yes, now that you have heard it, why are you still asking? ”

“Well, I know. ”

You know? What is that supposed to mean? Gu Yansheng was confused, he did not understand what Wen Niannan wanted to say.

Zhou Yuanfeng in the living room poured a cup of coffee for Lu Yun and sat on the opposite side, “Aunt, how do you want to deal with this matter?” ”

“What else can I do? This motherfucker is so focused on divorcing but missed that Nian Nianis is such a sensible and obedient child. How can he not see that? ”

Lu Yun was angry. She knew that Gu Yansheng was a clear and wise person when dealing with company affairs, but how come he was so bad at dealing with personal affairs?

“You can’t blame it all on him. After all, Shen Luoan was the first person he loved, and under that situation, A Sheng at that time needed the most care. ”

“Yuan Feng, go clean up that video online as soon as possible. Don’t let Nian Nianstress about this anymore.” ”

Zhou Yuanfeng nodded, “Yes, aunt. I have a way to perhaps ease their relationship.” ”

“What is your way? ”

“The reason why they are so hostile toward each other is nothing more than a misunderstanding and that they never really understand each other. If A Sheng can see the other side of Niannan, it might have turned out differently.” “

Lu Yun’s eyes brightened as she looked at Zhou Yuanfeng, feeling satisfied with the suggestion, “Yes, I understand what you mean, maybe we can give it a try. ”

Neither Lu Yun and Zhou Yuanfeng in the living room nor Gu Yansheng upstairs noticed that the person who just woke up from the coma seemed to have changed.
