War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon，Please Surrender!-Chapter 238 She Left

Pregnancy, again with Nie Rong’s excuse of being pregnant!

Tang Yuxiu was really tired of hearing it and didn’t want to hear anyone say Nie Rong was pregnant with his child again!

Because of this, he almost broke up with Gu Yan.

Tang Yuxiu snorted coldly, "Are you sure it’s my child, your eldest grandson?"

Old Sir Tang frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Just what it says. I have never touched her, how could she have my child."

Old Sir Tang was shocked, "You never touched her!"

On the night of the banquet, he had witnessed with his own eyes that Nie Rong and Tang Yuxiu booked a room in the hotel, and neither of them came out all night. Could it be that nothing happened?

"No!" Tang Yuxiu replied firmly.

Old Sir Tang fell silent, so how to explain the bloodstains on the sheets when the hotel staff cleaned the room the next morning?

He had specifically asked someone to report back about the events of that day.

If what Tang Yuxiu said was true, then what was up with Nie Rong?

Was she deceiving everyone in the Tang Family?

Tang Feng pondered, he was convinced of his son’s integrity no matter what.

His son had been raised under his watch, and he knew his personality very well; he would never lie for any reason, so the problem must lie with Nie Rong and the Nie Family.

The audacity of the Nie Family to bring uncertain matters to the Tang Family to justify themselves, ha, did they really think that just because their forces spanned both the gray and black areas, the Tang Family would be afraid of them?

"I will thoroughly investigate this matter."

Tang Yuxiu didn’t respond; he needed to properly investigate Nie Rong’s situation as well.

He absolutely believed he wouldn’t do anything to a woman he didn’t like, even if he was drunk out of his mind.

Father and son also talked about some company and family matters, discussed Tang Mubei’s recent developments, and time slipped away without them noticing.

At noon, Old Sir Tang naturally kept Tang Yuxiu to have lunch at the old house.

Tang Yuxiu knew that ever since his mother passed away, and he and his brother moved out, only Old Sir Tang and the butler, a few servants, lived in the old house.

As Old Sir Tang got older, he and Tang Mubei were always busy with their careers outside, rarely having time to come back, and even when they did, they didn’t stay long. He was actually lonely too, so taking this time to have a meal with Old Sir Tang wasn’t a bad thing.

After eating, Old Sir Tang kept Tang Yuxiu around to play chess and drink tea with him.

Tang Yuxiu did not refuse.

Throughout the day, Tang Yuxiu stayed at the Tang Family’s old house with Old Sir Tang.

It had been a long time since father and son had spent time together like this; they had a great conversation, and Old Sir Tang was in a good mood.

At dinner, Tang Yuxiu resolutely refused to stay any longer, as he was concerned about Gu Yan alone at home.

"Dad, I’m going back first. I’ll come to see you again when I have time."

Old Sir Tang sighed slightly, "Go ahead."

Watching Tang Yuxiu drive away, Old Sir Tang felt uneasy.

Nie Rong’s pregnancy might be fake, and he had let Gu Yan leave. Given his son’s character, who knows how angry he’d be at him.

Tang Yuxiu drove faster, spending so long at the old house with Old Sir Tang that he didn’t know if Gu Yan was at home thinking wildly by herself.

The car stopped outside the villa, the sky had almost turned dark. Tang Yuxiu got out of the car and glanced upstairs; there were no lights on, so she must still be in the living room.

Upon entering, he found the living room was also in darkness.

A bad feeling suddenly arose in Tang Yuxiu’s heart.

He had felt something was off all day, not quite at ease, able to ignore it when chatting and playing chess with Old Sir Tang, but now standing at his doorstep, the unease magnified infinitely.

"Gu Yan!" Tang Yuxiu called loudly, his voice echoing through the empty villa, without a response.

He clicked on the light, revealing an empty living room, and no noise coming from the kitchen. He didn’t even have time to change his shoes and rushed upstairs to look for Gu Yan.

But he found no trace of Gu Yan in the bedroom or study.

Her clothes were still in the closet; he was about to leave but suddenly remembered something, turned back, looked towards the corner, and saw nothing there!

The luggage she brought over was gone!

Tang Yuxiu’s heart sank heavily; the luggage was gone, and so was Gu Yan...

She left?

Tang Yuxiu hastily ran downstairs, pushed open the door to the music room, but it was also dark inside, with only the white piano in front of the window reflecting a faint light.

Tang Yuxiu’s heart twisted painfully.

Last night, Gu Yan was still so proactive, saying she believed him, there was no way she’d leave today!

He had threatened her, forbidding her to leave, otherwise, he wouldn’t let the people she cared about live in peace; she was a person of deep affections, how could she abandon them and leave!

She had just said yesterday that she liked him!

Tang Yuxiu took out his phone and dialed Gu Yan’s number. After a while, he heard a familiar phone ringtone.

He suddenly looked up, turned on the lights in the music room, followed the sound of the bell and walked inside, and abruptly saw the phone he had given Gu Yan lying on the piano, with a piece of paper under it and a set of keys lying quietly beside it.

The keys to the villa!

Tang Yuxiu suddenly felt his hand holding the phone tremble a little, staring blankly at the phone on the piano vibrating with the ringtone, still displaying Gu Yan’s contact note for him "Capitalist Boss Tang."

She always called him Boss and said he was a capitalist, that was her style.

The phone was left behind, the keys were left behind, the luggage was gone, the person was also gone...

Did she really leave? Doesn’t she care about her family and friends?

Did she really just want to escape from him, and everything from last night was just a final farewell?

Gu Yan, Gu Yan!

No matter where you go, I will find you, keep you by my side, even if it really means breaking your leg, I won’t let you go!

He immediately dialed You Shuyang’s number and said in a deep voice, "Find out where Gu Yan went immediately and let me know as soon as you do!"

You Shuyang was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly asked, "Miss Gu disappeared again?"

"She’s gone!"

Gone? You Shuyang didn’t react for a moment, and Tang Yuxiu had already hung up the phone.

He blinked, his keen mind turned, and he instantly understood the meaning of those three words.

Gu Yan left Young Master Tang...

Damn, this is the biggest news of the year!

This is a big deal.

With Gu Yan gone, Young Master Tang must be in a terrible mood, and if his mood is bad, it won’t be easy for him or the employees of the Tang Family either!

You Shuyang immediately put down what he was doing and quickly began tracking Gu Yan’s whereabouts.

For the sake of his and the Tang Family’s employees’ future well-being, he must find Gu Yan as soon as possible.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Yuxiu was particularly irritable, clenching one hand into a fist, desperately wanting to vent.

Just as his fist was about to smash down on the piano, Tang Yuxiu abruptly stopped.

It was the piano she loved, even if she left ruthlessly, he couldn’t bear to damage it.

She will come back! He will find her!

He picked up Gu Yan’s phone, only then noticing the paper underneath.

It was filled with Gu Yan’s neat and elegant handwriting.

Tang Yuxiu:

I originally wanted to leave directly, without leaving anything behind, but after thinking about it, there are still some things I want to say to you.

I know my leaving will make you very angry and resentful, and I also know you will try every way to find me, but Tang Yuxiu, do you know that being by your side, I constantly feel the gap between us.

You are a favored child of heaven, lacking nothing, so outstanding, so confident, so amazing, but what about me, just an ordinary person who has nothing, it’s like worlds apart between us.

Being with you, I really feel a lot of pressure.

I once naively thought that as long as I like you and you like me, I could ignore these gaps, only to find in the end it’s just deceiving myself.

Just like this time, Nie Rong came with a pregnancy report saying it’s your child, I really didn’t want to believe, but I found myself believing it anyway.

Because in my heart, I always felt we were from different worlds, that you and Nie Rong were the ones meant to be together, as soon as she said it, I believed her, rather than believing you.

I feel that in your circle, no one comes out unscathed, and with just a sentence she shattered all my understanding and persistence towards you.

Tang Yuxiu, I really don’t know what to do, struggling back and forth between believing and not believing, I’m in so much pain, I don’t want to keep going on like this.

The environment we grew up in made us have different views on life and perspectives on people and things.

You think family background doesn’t matter to you, but I feel I can’t even reach up to you.

Your excellent background makes me constantly feel the pressure, I’m afraid of others’ different gazes, I’m afraid others don’t approve of us, I’m afraid your family also doesn’t like me, but I’m more afraid that one day you’ll suddenly realize you don’t actually like me that much, that you only liked me because of a temporary novelty, and maybe you’ll turn around and have another woman to replace me.

I’m really scared!

If that day truly comes, I’m afraid I wouldn’t know what to do, might end up doing something I wouldn’t know how to handle.

I’ve got nothing left, I don’t want to abandon even my pitiful self-esteem.

Tang Yuxiu, I insist on leaving, call me selfish and cowardly if you want, I don’t want to bet on an unknown future, nor do I want to keep worrying that you will abandon me.

I do not deny that I really like you, very much indeed! But liking doesn’t necessarily mean being together, because I’m not sure how long your liking for me will last.

Now with even Nie Rong pregnant with your child, it’s her that your family accepts, you two are a perfect match, with similar education and values, maybe that’s what’s truly suitable.

Tang Yuxiu, please don’t come looking for me, I don’t want to return to your side, I’m so tired!

I also hope for the sake of our once shared feelings, don’t make things difficult for my father and Xiang Lan, I won’t contact them anymore either.

Tang Yuxiu, time can forget everything, I hope you live well.

Wish you happiness.

The signature bore Gu Yan’s name.
