Black Lotus

Chapter 45 - Who Cares If He’s Dead Or Not?



Sitting on the side of the bed, Tang Shuo looked over after hearing this familiar tune. Seeing Gu Yansheng and Shen Luoan on the tablet screen, his heart almost stopped.

Shocked, he quickly turned his head to see Wen Niannan’s expression but only to see that Wen Niannan indifferently reached out to open the comments section.

[Godly CP! Such a lovely couple!]

[Wow, this is the best song I have ever heard. Mr. Gu plays it so well!]

[I don’t care, Mr. Gu and the little prince are the true couple.]

[Perfect CP! I can’t believe that I lived long enough to see Mr. Gu’s loving relationship!]

[Please feed me more info! Does anyone know who the person is besides Mr. Gu? Such a good match!]

There were so many people gossiping in the comment section that Tang Shuo couldn’t stand it anymore. He forcefully took the tablet and said, “That’s enough. It’s not good for you to look at those.”

Wen Niannan moved his eyes away from the tablet, and said calmly, “Someone at the banquet took this video, and surely that person doesn’t want me to be well.”

“Then I’ll find a way to take it down.”

“There’s no use. Without Gu Yansheng’s consent, no one will dare to put the video online. Otherwise, it would have been taken down already…” Wen Niannan sighed lightly, but he could still feel the pain in his heart.

To force him to divorce, Gu Yansheng chose to not interfere with the video. Since the video was not taken down, it proved that the person that uploaded the video just knew Gu Yansheng well, and Gu Yansheng approved it indirectly.

In recent years, other than necessary company interview videos and photos, Gu Yansheng had no personal photos available online. Even if someone was able to secretly take a photo and post it online, the photo would be deleted instantly.

For the first time, the public saw that the footage was not deleted, so the world assumed that Mr. Gu must have personally approved the message behind this video.

This assumption was the major reason why the video instantly became popular and attracted the attention of many. The genius leader in the business circle suddenly admitted that his affair with his first love was still holding true. Didn’t that just mean his current marriage was about to end?

Feeling proud of his works, Shen Luoan sat on the sofa and watched the video he posted.

As he had expected, he saw that everyone in the comments was talking about this new relationship between Gu Yansheng and him.

While seeing that the popularity of the video was exploding, a vicious light flash in his eyes as his goal was about to be achieved, “It’s time to add some more spice to it.”

Early next day, Gu Yansheng got dressed neatly and went downstairs to have breakfast but frowned when he saw that the person still hadn’t returned.

Aunt Lan had already prepared the food. She muttered as she placed the silverware down on the table, “He hasn’t returned for a whole day already. Might there be something that happened to him?”

Gu Yansheng’s hand that was holding a spoon stopped moving. He then wiped his mouth with a tissue, and said lightly, “If he doesn’t want to come back. Who cares if he’s dead or alive? He’s probably sleeping with another man somewhere right now, so there’s no need for you to worry about him.”

Aunt Lan wanted to continue, but Uncle Xu quickly came over and pulled her back into the kitchen.

Gu Yansheng suddenly stopped what he was doing. Staring at the chair in front of him for a while, he anxiously got up and left.

“Do you think Mr. Gu really didn’t have him in his mind? But, if so, then why did Mr. Gu yell at him like that in public?” Aunt Lan asked Uncle Xu.

“Because as long as Shen Luoan is there, Mr. Gu will never fall in love with him. Shen Luoan has an incomparable position in Mr. Gu’s heart…”
