Black Lotus
Chapter 80.1 - Can We Hold Hands While Crossing The Street? (1/2)
The warm sunlight shone onto the large white bed, and the person on the bed slightly opened his eyes.
Wen Niannan was awakened by the sunlight and raised one hand to cover the light while also rubbing his eyes.
Suddenly remembering something, his sleepiness was gone, and he turned to look beside him.
Beside him was a lifted blanket, and no one was there…
Gu Yansheng left…
Wen Niannan sat up and looked at the empty spot blankly as he gently touched the messy blanket.
“Good morning. Sir, I’ll get the soup ready for you.”
Aunt Feng just finished setting the table up and saw Wen Niannan coming down from upstairs. She greeted him with a smile immediately.
“Sir, please take a seat. I’ll get the old lady to come down for breakfast as well.”
“Yeah.”
Wen Niannan didn’t head for the table but went to the living room. As he glanced around and didn’t see anyone, he also looked at the balcony and didn’t see anyone there either. His eyes darkened.
“Sir, what are you trying to find?” Uncle Xu’s voice came from behind.
“Yansheng… Where did he go? Is he not home?”
“He went away this morning and called some men to bring the piano away. He also left with them.”
“Bring the piano away?” As if remembering something, Wen Niannan’s body stiffened, and he tried to calm his emotions.
“Alright, I know.” Then, he went to the table in a daze and sat down covering his eyes.
Where could he bring the piano to? Of course, it was to Shen Luoan’s house. After so many years, he never thought that it would still be taken away.
Some footsteps came from the stairs and Wen Niannan forced a smile as he looked over.
“Mom.”
Lu Yun sat down beside him and said, “Niannan, how’s your sleep last night? Do you feel better?”
“Yeah, I slept well.”
Zhou Yuanfeng looked around and didn’t see Gu Yansheng so he asked, “Uncle Xu, where did A Sheng go? Did you not wake him up?”
“Sir, he went outside this morning and said that he would return tonight.”
Hearing that Gu Yansheng left, Lu Yun frowned and asked, “He left? He couldn’t even stay for a while in the house, and now, he’s probably messing around outside again!”
Wen Niannan was eating quietly without a word beside them.
Seeing that Gu Yansheng brought the piano over so early in the morning, Shen Luoan was extremely happy and started playing a piece with Gu Yansheng.
Playing the familiar piece, Gu Yansheng looked at Shen Luoan and thought about the scene on the stage.
“Yansheng? What’s wrong?”
“Mm? What?” Gu Yansheng returned to his senses and looked at the confused person in front of him.
“You played some wrong notes just then. I don’t think you would normally.”
Gu Yansheng looked at the piano keys and then at his hand. He paused for a second and said, “It’s been a while since I played this piece, and I seem to not be able to remember it as well. Oh right, didn’t you say that you want to go to the library to search for some resources?”
Shen Luoan nodded lightly and said with a smile, “Yeah, I want to buy some books too, and I’ll bring the piece that I play for you on your birthday to the competition. The competition is almost here, will you watch it?”
“Yeah, of course. Luoan, you’re so talented, and the first place will most certainly be yours, don’t worry.”
“I’ll practice it a few more times before we go to the library, alright?”
“Sure, whatever you want.” Gu Yansheng rubbed Shen Luoan’s soft hair, and his eyes were filled with gentleness.
Gu Yansheng didn’t see that as Shen Luoan turned over, his eyes flashed with a sight of evilness.
Yesterday, his uncle called him saying that Gu Yansheng and Wen Niannan went to the concert together.
He never thought that Gu Yansheng would be willing to accompany Wen Niannan to come out together. He felt that his status was threatened, so he called and used the competition as an excuse to be with Gu Yansheng.
As long as he could get first place in the competition, Gu Yansheng would most certainly be happy, because he knew that Gu Yansheng liked his playing and liked the way he played even more.
Shen Luoan looked at the person next to the balcony flipping through a sheet of music. He felt confident.
After going back to his room, Wen Niannan sat on the sofa next to the windows and started reading a book. His hand occasionally flipped through the book, but his eyes kept looking elsewhere.
Ding…
Looking at his phone, he saw a message from Tang Shuo.
[Niannan, when will you be coming today? ]
Wen Niannan was a little surprised by this and suddenly remembered the invitation from Tang Shuo yesterday.
Turning to where the door was, his eyes looked lost, but then he replied.
[I’ll be there in an hour]
Ding…
[Really? That’ll be great! I’ll be waiting for you. Drive carefully]
Wen Niannan looked at this message for a moment and rubbed his head that was still hurting. He took a deep breath while covering his face, and when his eyes reopened, it seemed to be missing something.
Why did he have to force himself to be like that? Even Gu Yansheng was enjoying himself outside, so why shouldn’t he still think about Gu Yansheng…
Wen Niannan grabbed his hat and told Uncle Xu that he had something to do outside, then left with his car.
