Black Lotus

Chapter 47 - Is He Back?



“Are you sure you want to leave alone? I can send you back, or I can tell someone to send you back.”

After finishing the discharge procedures, Tang Shuo tried his best to convince Wen Niannan to go back with him, but he was rejected.

Wen Niannan called a taxi and got in, but Tang Shuo firmly held onto the open door, refusing to let go while saying how he was worried.

“I’m fine. Seriously, you should go back too.”

The reason why Wen Niannan couldn’t let Tang Shuo follow him was that he was going to see Doctor Li.

When he saw those comments, he recalled the nightmare memories resonating in his mind. Those curses…

It hurts… it hurts so much that every time he thought about it, the places that he was hit still could feel the pain.

Gu Yansheng was not focused all day while he was at work. He didn’t even notice that he signed the wrong place on the contract. Fortunately, Xiao Li saw it and reminded him.

“Mr. Gu, are you okay? Do you want to take a break?”

“There’s no need. If there’s nothing more you want to tell me, please give me some time by myself. Remember to prepare the materials for the meeting in the afternoon.”

“Ah? Didn’t you just finish the meeting?” Xiao Li was shocked and quickly flipped through the notebook to check if there was actually a meeting this afternoon.

After a while, Gu Yansheng raised his head and said, “Really? I see.”

As soon as Xiao Li came out, people outside instantly surrounded him.

Colleague A gossipped, “How is he? He must be in a brilliant mood. Does he have a smile on his face?”

Colleague B said, “Tell us, is Mr. Gu having a lot of fun right now?”

Colleague C said, “I truly admire how our Boss took matters to such extent. Now that everyone knows about this, the divorce is certain.”

Listening to their speculation, Xiao Li felt that the truth was slightly more complicated than that, so he just replied vaguely, “Mr. Gu is quite dazzled for the past few days. He had been checking his phone frequently as if waiting for a message from his partner.”

When they heard Xiao Li’s words, several people laughed. One of them sneered, “Are you crazy? Li, Mr. Gu has openly admitted his true love. He probably can’t wait to see the divorce happen!”

Seeing that they didn’t believe him, Xiao Li didn’t say anything more. Suddenly, the door behind him opened, and the one they were gossiping about walked out. Instantly, everyone that was clustered around Xiao Li bowed and fled the place.

Gu Yansheng loosened his tie, and said coldly to Xiao Li, “Fire all these people that are here just then and make sure that they won’t appear in any of the Gu Family properties in the future.”

After that, he took a quick glance at the employee’s area, making all those that were there shiver in fear.

“The Gu Family Corp. does not need employees that only know how to gossip about their superiors. Shut all of your mouths and do your work, or else, I’ll make sure that you won’t find a job in this country!”

Gu Yansheng was already annoyed by the video today, and now that the video was being reposted continuously, the comments made him even more frustrated.

When he returned home, the sky was still bright. As soon as he parked, he saw a black Audi Q7 on his side, and there was a car key on the door.

It was Wen Niannan’s car, and since Wen Niannan left, the car has not been touched, but now it was obvious that someone moved it.

His hand holding the steering wheel tightened… Is he back?
