Chapter 113: Don't give up on the piano, all right?
“Kill him! No one cares about death like him with such poor bones!”
“Wen Niannan, you will be free if you die, go and die…”
“It doesn’t matter to me if he is dead or alive…”
The person on the bed suddenly opened his eyes with a scream, his eyes were full of fear. As Wen Niannan woke up, his chest was violently going up and down, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Wen Niannan slowly sat up and hugged himself, after a long time, he got up, taking his pajamas to the bathroom. With the bathtub filled with water, Wen Niannan immersed himself in the water as he closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly saw Gu Yansheng standing outside the bathtub looking at him, Wen Niannan suddenly got out of the water.
“Cough…cough…cough”
Wen Niannan hurriedly wiped off the water on his face, looking around in a panic, when he didn’t see Gu Yansheng, his tight body gradually relaxed.
It’s just hallucinations…
Just hallucinations…
Wen Niannan put on his pajamas, turned on all the lights in the house, and went downstairs. He stared at the piano in the hall in a daze.
The public relations team of the Gu Group was also great, after explaining everything in the press conference, the so-called whistleblowers suddenly apologized.
In just a few days, the public opinion on the Internet was suppressed by Gu, stopping the matter.
Looking at the several hot topics trends that were suppressed, Shen Luoan didn’t continue, after all, his goal had been achieved.
Shen Luoan didn’t expect to get it done so smoothly until later he discovered that the Qin family was behind the incident, no wonder it was so successful that the Gu Group’s public relations were panicked while the trendings weren’t removed.
XX Bar
“One more bottle.”
Tang Shuo was drunk sitting in front of the bar, his hand was still pouring alcohol into the glass, as he took another sip.
The owner of the bar asked gossiping, “Hey, what’s wrong with you, Tang Shuo? You lost your love?”
“Oh, love-lost? He doesn’t even give me the opportunity, how can I lose love”
Tang Shuo took out his cell phone, looking at the pendant on it with eyes full of bitterness. He lay down on the bar, talking drunkenly.
“Why don’t you give me a chance…we obviously get along very well. Aren’t we getting along very well in the hospital? Why are you kicking me away all of a sudden…”
“Why make me feel that I am suddenly near and far away at the same time that I can’t catch you, letting me gain and lose so suddenly…”
When the owner of the bar saw that he was drunk, he dialed Tang Lunxuan’s phone, and shortly afterward, Tang Lunxuan came, taking the drunk Tang Shuo home.
After that day, Tang Shuo suddenly accepted many composing offers that he had refused, the released songs were as popular as ever, and for a while, online discussions began to start again.
The sound of fireworks kept ringing outside the house, Wen Niannan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows looking at the exceptionally beautiful fireworks outside, his eyes full of sorrow.
That day was the last day of the year, everyone would be reunited with their families to watch the fireworks while they eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Wen Niannan sat on the couch alone, turning on the TV, and staring at the screen blankly, as he looked down at the phone.
He wanted to say a Happy New Year to his father, but he was afraid that his father would be disappointed in him because of his divorce from Gu Yansheng…
Ding…
[Niannan, I’m at the door, can you come out? ]
Wen Niannan stared at Tang Shuo’s message on his cell phone. He thought that Tang Shuo would never contact him again after the unsympathetic words he said that day.
Wen Niannan raised his eyes to look at the door. He opened the door and walked out.
There was no one at the entrance nor the courtyard, Wen Niannan turned back to the house when he saw no one, but suddenly, there was a loud noise. The dark night sky seemed to be illuminated by those huge fireworks like shooting stars.
All the beautiful fireworks exploded in the sky, spreading out like shooting stars, out of the blue, a heart-shaped faintly appeared in the fireworks.
“Happy New Year!”
Tang Shuo suddenly jumped out from the side and walked over with a smile holding a bunch of flowers in his hand.
“Are the fireworks looking great? I have taken a lot of thought, haha, do you like that heart-shaped one? Is it a bit old-fashioned?”
Wen Niannan didn’t speak for a long time but stared at Tang Shuo who was smiling brightly, he said with a trembled: “How…how do you…”
Tang Shuo winked at him suddenly, putting his hand on his lips: “Hush…Niannan, see who is behind you.”
“Little Nian”
Wen Niannan’s body froze suddenly when he heard that familiar voice, he slowly turned stiffly to look at the person behind him, when he saw that familiar face, Wen Niannan’s eyes instantly turned red.
“Father…”
When Father Wen saw Wen Niannan’s fragile face, his eyes were also full of tears. A hoarse voice responded: “You are thinner…”
After hearing his father’s voice, Wen Niannan’s tears slipped down instantly, he wanted to rush into his father’s arms and tell him his complaints, he wanted to tell his father that he missed his mother very much, but he seemed to have no control over his body and was stuck in it.
Father Wen stepped forward and took Wen Niannan in his arms, hugging his heart-wrenching son who had been sensible since he was a child.
“Little Nian, I’m sorry that Dad came so late, making you suffer so much…”
Wen Niannan showed all the emotion in his eyes, raising his hand to wipe away the tears on his father’s face, he smiled from the bottom of his heart: “No, I’m very happy, very happy that you could come, father.”
“Why didn’t you tell me about your hospitalization? I should have taken care of you, I shouldn’t leave you alone in the hospital…”
Wen Niannan shook his head and said softly, “I didn’t let Tang Shuo contact you, I didn’t want to disturb my father.”
Father Wen felt even more guilty, he and Wen Niannan were always separated from each other by the seeming veil because of Gu Yansheng, but now that the gap was gone, the father and son could finally talk to each other again.
“Uncle, let’s go in first, it’s too cold outside, Niannan’s body is still not well.”
Tang Shuo interrupted them suddenly, Father Wen nodded softly, as they entered the house.
Wen Niannan learned from Tang Shuo that his father had known from the Internet that he had divorced Gu Yansheng, later, after knowing everything from Dr. Li, he became furious, and he resolutely announced he had cut off all cooperation with the Gu Group and hurriedly returned to China.
As soon as the father and son entered the room, they sat on the sofa and chatted. They seemed to have opened the chatterbox and had countless words to say between them.
Seeing the vicissitudes of life on his father’s face, Wen Niannan felt even more distressed.
Father Wen glanced at Wen Niannan, who was tense, and sighed, “Little Nian, didn’t you make dinner?”
“No, I’m alone, you know, there was no need to make it, I just ate some biscuits.”
When Father Wen heard this, he frowned: “How can you do this? Your health is not at its best, how could you just eat some biscuits, Dad will cook you some favorite dishes, okay?”
“There is no food at home…” said Wen Niannan somewhat startled.
“I brought some. ”
Tang Shuo suddenly took out his car key, shaking it, and ran out with a smile. Soon, he returned with a few bags of vegetables.
Seeing Wen Niannan staring at him in shock, Tang Shuo winked at him, revealing his little tiger teeth, saying, “Awesome, right? I knew that you don’t know how to buy vegetables, so I prepared it in advance.”
Wen Niannan looked at his father’s busy figure in the kitchen, he seemed to once again see the scene of his father and mother cooking during the Chinese New Year.
“Thank you, Tang Shuo…”
“What?”
“Thank you for everything you have done for me, the beautiful fireworks, I like them very much, thank you for bringing my father to accompany me to eat New Year’s Eve dinner…”
“No…there’s nothing to be thankful for, the New Year should have been lively, I hope you remember, Niannan, you are not alone, you still have me, and Uncle Wen, we always will accompany you to eat New Year’s Eve dinner with you in New Year.”
Tang Shuo looked at the tears in Wen Niannan’s eyes and the joy from his heart, his heart was also full of happiness, and a gleam of light flashed in his drooping eyes.
When he woke up drunk that day, he was severely scolded by his brother, thinking that he was too easy to be hit.
“What’s the use of you being so self-blaming? I have told you that your enemy is not an ordinary person, how could Mr. Wen suddenly accept you after suffering so much psychological damage? You have liked him for so many years, wait, why can’t you wait now that he is already divorced?”
“He doesn’t want me close, he wants to close his heart and not let anyone approach anymore, what can I do…”
“Then you can make yourself stronger and better, let him slowly realize your tenderness, your goodness, and your love for him, enter into his heart little by little.”
Tang Shuo turned his eyes to look at Father Wen in the kitchen, then looked at the man on the sofa, his eyes disappeared from smiling and his heart was particularly happy.
He felt that Wen Niannan had become less resistant to him than he had been, he knew that he had done it right this time, he wanted Wen Niannan to understand that he was different from Gu Yansheng and could be trusted.
Father Wen made a table full of dishes, and that dinner was the happiest meal Wen Niannan had eaten in so many years.
After eating, they went to the sofa to chat, Father Wen looked at the furnishings in the house and talked to Wen Niannan a lot about Ye Xian’s past.
Father Wen glanced at the brand new piano in the hall and turned his head to look at Tang Shuo, who also nodded.
“Little Nian, are you still playing the piano now? Can Dad listen to one piece of music?”
“I…I don’t play the piano anymore.”
“Why didn’t you play? Your mother really liked watching you play the piano. She praised your talents since you were very young, saying that you will definitely be better than her in the future.”
Wen Niannan was startled when he heard it, he pressed his lips, “Mom…did she really say that?”
Father Wen sighed lightly and said distressedly: “Dad knows why you don’t want to play the piano anymore, but dad also knows how much you love piano and music, Little Nian, don’t care about their opinions, just be yourself, you don’t have to hide your light for others.”
“Your mother wanted you to be yourself, to live for yourself, and don’t feel bad because of anyone or anything.”
Wen Niannan turned around and looked at the piano, with a little choked voice: “How could I not love the piano, I…”
Tang Shuo walked over, kneeling, he persuaded him: “Niannan, uncle is right, you shouldn’t give up the piano and music you love, so much, your mother also wanted to see the self-confident appearance as soon as you play the piano.”
Father Wen stood up and walked to the piano, and said in a deep voice: “Little Nian let it go, let go of all the pain and memories of the past, be a brand new self in the new year doing what you like, okay?
“All right…”
