âWhat did you say? You⦠you want to divorce?â
Tang Shuo froze after hearing this sentence. He looked at the person with disbelief and thought that he might have misheard.
âHe would be willing to end all ties with his family and give up his position in his company to divorce with me, what choice do I have⦠I want to divorce. I want to escape from all these, to a place where no one can find me, but⦠can I really give up everything and leaveâ¦?â
The words his mother told him made him hesitate. After all, Gu Family and Lu Family did help his father before. These years, it was also all these projects that carried the Wen Family, allowing his father to have what he has now. He could never forget their gratitude.
But if I donât leave, could I really be like before and love Gu Yansheng as if nothing has happenedâ¦?
Wen Niannanâs head started to hurt violently. He pressed his temples trying to ease the pain, but his heart was full of bitterness⦠How did it end up like this?
âNiannan?â
Wen Niannan looked up slightly at the person who was worried about him and revealed a faint smile, âYes?â
âAre you really going to divorce?â Hearing that Gu Yansheng was threatening to break all relationships with his family to force Wen Niannan to divorce, he didnât know whether to be happy or not.
Wen Niannan never wished to divorce, but in the end, he agreed because he didnât want to see Gu Yansheng break ties with his family like that. Sure indeed, he still loved him, he did this for his good.
Tang Shuo suddenly stood up and leaned closer, his eyes stared at the person in front of him, âNiannan⦠if you divorce⦠Can I? Can I have a chance?â
The pleading eyes went straight through Wen Niannanâs heart; he was stunned for a second.
âI⦠I donât know⦠I⦠I need to be going now, itâs too late, Tang Shuo, I need to go back now.â
Wen Niannan hurriedly walked outside with panic. He put the hat back on, but suddenly, Tang Shuo held onto his hand.
âYouâre running away from me.â His voice was full of complaints and stubbornness.
âI canât? Why not? We are so happy when we are together, why canât I just have a chance?â
âBecause Iâm not worth it, not worth your endless efforts. Tang Shuo, you should be living a carefree life right now, continuing your own business as if you never met me before. You shouldnât let me control your emotions.â
That smile as bright as the sun should not be destroyed by someone like meâ¦
âOkay, I promise, Iâll live carefreely as before, Iâll continue to happily make music as before, okay?â Tang Shuo wiped away his tears. His eyes were terrifyingly red, but he still tried to pull out a smile and look at him.
Wen Niannan looked at his smile and said while trying to hold back his sobs, âWhat a beautiful smile, thank you, Tang Shuo.â
The two didnât speak anymore, but they knew clearly what they were to each other.
Wen Niannan put his hat back on and walked towards his car. Tang Shuo followed two meters behind him. He didnât speak nor go any faster.
After opening the car door, Wen Niannan sat in and looked back at the person on the streets. He walked over.
âTang Shuo, Iâll be going now.â
âOkay, be careful on your way back, let me know after you got home safely.â
âOkay, you should go back too, itâs windy and starting to get cold.â
But Tang Shuo didnât leave. He stood in place and watched Wen Niannan start his car dumbfoundedly. His eyes suddenly noticed a bag on the passenger seat, the name on it wroteâ¦
He still stood where he was after the car drove away.
When Tang Lunxuan received the message from his secretary, he quickly went back to the company. The second he walked into the office, he saw his secretary pouring coffee for the person on the sofa.
When he saw the evil charm on his face, Tang Lunxuan grew angry for no reason and took a deep breath and went over.
âMr. Zhou, what made you suddenly want to come here today? You should have let me know beforehand.â
The person on the sofa didnât even look at him as he sipped the coffee.
Zhou Yuanfeng saw him already while he was still parking his car. He stood at the officeâs floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the cars below. Glancing at his watch, his eyes showed a hint of impatientness.
When the silver-gray car suddenly appeared below and after he saw the person coming off, Zhou Yuanfeng smiled, his eyes looked as if they had just found their prey.
Zhou Yuanfeng gently blew on the coffee in front of him and ignored the person talking.
Tang Lunxuan sat down in front of him. His secretary also poured him some coffee, and then looked up at the person in front, not knowing what he was up to.
Until the cup of coffee was finished, Zhou Yuanfeng still didnât speak yet. Tang Lunxuan looked at his secretary, but he could only shake his head too.
Strange, didnât Mr. Zhou say that he didnât have time to wait and wondered when I would arrive? How come he is now just calmly drinking coffee?
Authorâs Notes:
Haha, do you think that Young Master Tang has grown? Heâs very cute, isnât he?
Nian Nian and Gu Scumâs personalities would be a little different in the future. They will all grow and change, same with Tang Shuo, who will become strong for the person he loves.
Guess what Tang Shuo saw on the bag?
