Chapter 140



Gu Yansheng walked out of the cuckoo restaurant danglingly. His eyes were a little fuzzy, and every step he made wasn’t firm that he almost fell. A hand suddenly appeared in front of him to support him, Gu Yansheng was startled, then a peek of light flashed in his eyes. 


“Wen Niannan” 


Gu Yansheng thought it was Wen Niannan who was holding him as he looked up at the person in front of him. 


“Yansheng, Yansheng, what’s wrong with you?” 


It was Shen Luoan… 


Shen Luoan stretched his arms and held him, looking at him worriedly. 


“It’s okay, I’m a little dizzy, I just need to go back and take a rest.” 


Gu Yansheng grabbed the hurt in his eyes, gently pushing away the hand holding him, and said in a deep voice, “Why are you here?” 


“I…I miss you so much, you don’t want to see me, I thought that maybe if I come to the cuckoo restaurant we used to come to, it would bring back our memories.” 


Shen Luoan lowered his head and pretended to be aggrieved, standing aside pitifully. 


Gu Yansheng glanced around and turned his gaze, looking at the ring on his hand, his eyes darkened, “I’m very busy recently and don’t have time.” 


Both knew that the reason was false, but they didn’t say otherwise. 


Just as Shen Luoan was about to say something, he suddenly saw the blood on Gu Yansheng’s collar and said in shock: “You’re bleeding? I’ll take you to the hospital.” 


Gu Yansheng took a step back and said: “No, I’ll call Xiao Li to pick me up. It’s too late. Go back first.” 


Shen Luoan’s body became stiff, suddenly he saw the off-road vehicle slowly approaching not far behind Gu Yansheng, a glint flashed in his eyes. 


“Yansheng, be careful of falling down.” 


Shen Luoan suddenly stepped forward and hugged Gu Yansheng, he reacted a little slower because of his dizziness, not having the time to push away. 


Wen Niannan in the car looked out the window by casualty but just happened to see them hugging each other, his eyes flickering slightly. 


“What are you doing?” Gu Yansheng pushed Shen Luoan away, staggering back. 


His head hurt…the silhouettes in front of them were a little fuzzy… 


“I’m afraid you will fall, I’ll send you back.” 


Shen Luoan saw Gu Yansheng’s eyes dizzy as if he would faint in the next second. 


Sure enough, Gu Yansheng’s eyes went dark and fell to the ground. 


“Yansheng, shall I send you back?” 


There was no response. 


A gleam of light flashed in Shen Luoan’s eyes, he was really unconscious. 


Knock… 


“Coming.” Aunt Lan put on her coat and opened the door, but she saw Shen Luoan at the door. 


“Why are you here again? What happened to the husband?” 


“He hurt his head, but he refused to go to the hospital and insisted on going home, so I brought him back.” 


After that, Shen Luoan pushed Aunt Lan away and helped Gu Yansheng upstairs. When he passed by the study, he stopped and glanced at it. His eyes flashed with dim light. 


Aunt Lan thought that Shen Luoan would stay there, refusing to leave, but she didn’t expect him to go and leave soon. 


After leaving, Shen Luoan went to Qin’s house with what he had just obtained. 


In the middle of the night, Gu Yansheng suddenly developed a high fever, Aunt Lan panicked and rushed to the hospital. 


The doctor said that the high fever was caused by the head impact injury, and it was necessary to take an X-ray to see it and tossed until dawn before completing all the examinations. 


The person in the hospital bed fell asleep deeply, a little weaker, and less wild than usual. 


“Morning, Xiao Nian, the day after tomorrow will be the game, how are your practices with Xiao Shuo?” 


Father Wen brought the breakfast to the table and smiled at Wen Niannan. 


“Uhm, we already practiced a lot.” 


Wen Niannan rubbed his eyes and looked at Weibo on his phone. Since registering on Weibo, he would occasionally read the latest news after interacting with Weibo fans. 


Tang Shuo said that he should post more news. He took a picture of breakfast and posted it to Weibo, checking the latest news at will. 


His hand scrolling the news paused, Wen Niannan stared at the screen with astonishment in his eyes. 


[After the quarrel between Qiyue Group and Gu’s Group, they were once again guided with a fatal blow. Yesterday, it was suspected that company secrets and confidential projects were leaked. They were all divested and abandoned by all cooperative companies! The stocks evaporated overnight, the company faced bankruptcy!] 


Wen Niannan clicked it and watched them for a long time. There were many videos, including videos of Tang Lunxuan’s haggard development conference, and interviews with a large number of company employees who broke the news after they resigned. 


It seemed that Qiyue Group had already drowned, they were about to declare bankruptcy anytime. 


Wen Niannan felt that something was wrong with the news. It was clear that Qiyue Group wasn’t a very large but a medium-sized company. Why would they be the only ones to fall? 


Even if Tang Shuo was very famous in the music industry, there weren’t so many news reports… 


Or perhaps someone carefully… 


Wen Niannan suddenly Gu Yansheng’s image appeared in his mind he saw at the cuckoo restaurant the day before, a hidden look flashed in his eyes. 


Tang Shuo…did he see him? 


Wen Niannan said a few words to his father and then went to Mingyue’s studio, but the person who should be there tomorrow morning didn’t see it. 


He sighed in relief when he saw Tang Shuo coming in from outside the door as he was about to call. 


“Tang Shuo where have you been?” 


Tang Shuo revealed two sweet dimples and said with a smile, “I saw bouquets of sunflowers, so I bought one, do you like it?” 


Wen Niannan took it but did not pay attention to the flower, but he asked, “Have you…have you seen any news today?” 


“News? What news? Could it be that the two of us were photographed in the restaurant yesterday?” 


Tang Shuo poked the leaves of the bouquet, saying jokingly. 


“No…nothing, just don’t see them.” 


Tang Lunxuan had always been very modest and polite in the industry. He had a lot of good friends, it was impossible to be rejected by all companies as reported. 


“Tang Shuo, did your mother eat the cake your brother brought back yesterday?” 


“Yep, after eating, she called me and we chatted for a long time. There have been too many things going on recently, but everything is getting better.” 


Wen Niannan was startled: “Better?” 


Tang Shuo sighed and smiled bitterly: “My brother has been too busy lately. He has been running around and finally got a few projects. Now the company has gradually stabilized. I feel sorry for his hard work. I don’t know how to help him…” 


Wen Niannan stepped forward and held Tang Shuo’s hand, softly comforting: “It’s okay, it will be okay, everything will be okay.” 


“Niannan, you are so kind, how can you be so gentle and comforting, ah, yes, my brother said that he would come to see us practice piano at noon, let’s go in first.” 


“Good.” 


Wen Niannan was checking the latest news all morning, raising his hand and rubbing his sore eyes. He didn’t know if the news was telling the truth or if what Tang Shuo said was true… 


He got very nervous when he saw Tang Shuo picking up his phone. He was afraid that Tang Shuo would see them that he grabbed his phone. 


“Huh? What are you doing, Niannan, I will post on Weibo.” Tang Shuo looked at Wen Niannan with a stiff expression. 


“Tomorrow, let’s post it together, now go and practice the piano, leave your phone away.” 


Tang Shuo just wanted to say something, but Lingling’s voice came over. 


“Brother Tang, your brother is here.” 


Tang Lunxuan walked in, it seemed that he was not as haggard as in the news, and he was in the same state as usual. 


“Brother, I will go to practice piano, you can talk to Niannan.” 


Tang Lunxuan nodded, “Okay, go.” 


After the door of the piano room was closed, the two fell silent. 


Wen Niannan didn’t know if he should ask, but if it was true, Tang Shuo would find out sooner or later. 


“Brother Tang, they said in the news that Qiyue…” 


“Yes, that’s true, I lied to Tang Shuo.” 


Lunxuan’s eyes were full of exhaustion: “I am pulling a cooperative company everywhere, but no one is there. 


Tang Lunxuan’s eyes are full of exhaustion, “I am offering a cooperative company anyhow and anywhere, but no one is willing to cooperate with a company that has been arrogant and offended Gu’s company. I am afraid Qiyue really can’t hold it this time…” 


Wen Niannan tightened his lips and looked at the piano room worriedly, “He has been guilty of not being able to contribute to the company, making you so tired. If he learns the truth in the future, I am afraid he will be even sadder…” 


“I don’t want him to know, even my parents… don’t know, the news has been withdrawn by me, Tang Shuo is about to play, he is looking forward to this competition, it can’t affect his mood.” 


Tang Lunxuan’s face was full of bitterness, and he looked at Wen Niannan and said: “He values ​​you most, as long as you stay by his side and don’t leave him, it will be fine…” 


It was already afternoon when Tang Lunxuan left then he received an unfamiliar call as soon as he arrived at the company. 


“Hello, this is Tang Lunxuan.” 


There was no sound on the other side of the phone. 


“Is there anything wrong?” 


There was an intermittent harsh sound on the phone: “I saw your…company situation, I have…a project to…talk to you…but I’m in Y country, you need to come tomorrow…Y country, W city, find me, I will tell you the address when you arrive.” 


After that, they hung up. 


After hanging up, Tang Lunxuan was startled, his eyes filled with excitement. 


It seemed that he didn’t even think about why Yaguo’s company wanted to talk to him about the strangeness of the project, he hurried back home to pack the papers and luggage. 


The next day, he could win the project, which could bring some hope to Qiyue. The day after tomorrow was Tang Shuo’s competition. After he would finish everything, he would come back, he could go to Tang Shuo’s piano competition with his father and mother… 


Tang Lunxuan glanced at the weather outside. In the morning, he remembered the news saying that it would rain for the past two days. He didn’t care about it, so he called the secretary to book a flight to the country for the next day morning. 


Gu Yansheng had fallen asleep in the hospital bed for two days, not waking up. The doctor said it was caused by a high fever due to a wound infection. It was normal for patients with high fever to sleep for two days or more. 


The person in the hospital bed was sleeping very restlessly, and was always talking in dreams. Aunt Lan heard his name whispering Wen Niannan when she was covering Gu Yansheng with the quilt last night, and she sighed and went out to collect water. 


“Don’t sleep…don’t sleep…you won’t be able to wake up if you sleep…” 


Gu Yansheng once again had the same recurrent dream, but this time the voice was so familiar… 


“Gu Yansheng, wake up! Gu Yansheng! Gu Yansheng!” 


The voice calling his name became more and more familiar. 


Gu Yansheng tried to open his eyes. He saw the musical note necklace dangling from the neck of the person in front of him. He looked away and looked to the right. His vision was a little vague but he saw a student badge on the left chest of the person holding him. 


There were some words on it, Gu Yansheng tried to open his eyes to see clearly, everything got closer…the words on the badge were… 


Class 6 of the second year…Wen Niannan…
