BLACK LOTUS (BL NOVEL)

💮 Chapter 62: An intentionally wrinkled suit (2/3)

"The spoon fell on the ground, sit there for a while, I'll call you when the soup is ready."

"Sure. "

Shen Luoan's eyes flashed with annoyance, he wasn't drunk, he clearly heard what the call was about.

"Do you want to fight with me? Wen Niannan, we'll see."

Tang family

Bang bang bang... The was a loud knock on the door, a servant rushed to open the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Tang Shuo standing at the door with a tired face carrying his suitcase.

"Young master? Didn't the lady say that you will be back tomorrow?"

"I had something to do that's why I'm here. I caught the last flight. Where are my parents? Is everybody sleeping? " Said Tang Shuo, taking off his coat and walking towards the kitchen, to drink some water.

"Yes, both Mr. and Mrs. are resting. And your brother is still working on the study. Do you want me to call him?"

"That's ok, you can go to rest."

Tang Shuo ran upstairs directly to the study, opening the door without knocking, he entered the room.

"Why didn't you go to sleep yet, brother?"

Tang Lunxuan took off his glasses to clean them, he looked at Tang Shuo and said: "Why are you back today? why you didn't let me know in advance, you came back because of him, right?"

Tang Shuo scratched his head embarrassed, he replied ashamed: "No...no, I came back because my work there was done."

It goes without saying that he rushed back because he was dead worried for one person. He stayed up late to get finish the work, that way he was able to come back early the next day. Since the call, he was feeling uneasy, he couldn't help it.

"Brother, what are you looking at? Don't push yourself too hard, go to sleep, it's late."

"I'll do it after I finish reading these contracts. It's been a little bit of a mess since there are new projects. I'll look at some more information."

Tang Lanxuan didn't tell his brother that the company would cooperate with the Gu company fearing that he would overthink it. In fact, he didn't agree to cooperate at the beginning, he was afraid that it was a trap set by Gu Yansheng, but after discussing it with his father, he changed his mind.

Some time ago, Qiyue Group had some problems with its funds, they needed an urgent investment, but a lot of cooperative companies were in some suspicious situations. Seeing that, at present, the best choice was to have the partnership with Gu Group.

"Don't worry about me, you go to sleep, aren't you tired of  the way back?"

"Okay, then I'm going to bed first, brother, go to rest soon."

"Yeah."

Tang Lunxuan saw Tang Shuo leave the study with a yawn, he sighed stopping his movements.

Gu Yansheng had been troubled all night, he didn't even hear Shen Luoan's call, until he walked in front of him, he reacted.

"Yansheng? Yansheng?"

"Huh? What happened?" Gu Yansheng got himself together and looked at the person who was staring at him with worry.

Shen Luoan let out a breath, his eyes were, he said with a slippery voice: "Yansheng, I'm sleepy."

"It's too late, it's time to go to sleep, I'll tuck you in." Gu Yansheng returned to himself. They went to the room with Shen Luoan in his arms.

Shen Luoan laid obediently on the bed covering himself with a blanket when Gu Yansheng got up to leave, he grabbed him.

"Where are you going? I want you to sleep with me."

Looking at the man laying on the bed, who was staring at him with pleading eyes, he couldn't say no: "Okay, I'll sleep with you."

Gu Yansheng laid on one side of the bed with Shen Luoan, he was looking at the moon outside through the French window, lost in his thoughts.

Since he hung up the phone, his mind was restless all night, he kept thinking about Wen Niannan, he couldn't help but think of his pale face while calling his name.

His mind was kind of a mess with annoying thoughts, without any sign of sleep.

Looking back at the soundly asleep Shen Luoan next to him, he lifted his hand stroking over the soft hair, he lifted the blanket getting out of the bed without making any harsh move.

He went to the balcony, taking out the lighter to lit the cigarette. A number on the screen of the cellphone caught his eyes, he stared at it intently, till the point that the lit cigarette didn't reach his mouth in any moment.

Gu Yansheng didn't take a puff until the cigarette consumed it all, burning his hand in the process. Finally, he turned around, putting the cigarette aside to return to bed.
