War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon，Please Surrender!-Chapter 260: Lu Fusheng’s Duplicitous Words

However, Tang Yuxiu couldn’t help but twitch his lips after hearing Gu Yan’s description.

He knew a man described like Gu Yan did, and that was Lu Fusheng!

Yesterday, Lu Yiyun said he was coming back and was already at the airport. Why did he choose to come tonight instead? And so coincidentally bump into Gu Yan.

Tang Yuxiu couldn’t help but suspect if Lu Fusheng did this on purpose!

Moreover, hearing how Gu Yan described Lu Fusheng, with a hint of admiration in her eyes, Tang Yuxiu felt quite uncomfortable.

Which man likes his own woman showing interest in another man right in front of him!

Unless he’s out of his mind!

"The rain stopped, let’s go." Tang Yuxiu glanced out the window and said.

And at this time, the server had already brought over the packed food and handed it to him.

Gu Yan was a bit puzzled about the sudden shift in scene when they were just talking about the man who took her to find him.

But seeing Tang Yuxiu already grabbing the bag and leaving his seat, Gu Yan quickly followed without thinking further.

Outside, the rain had indeed stopped, and the air was filled with a post-rain freshness. Tang Yuxiu held an umbrella in one hand and the bag in the other, while Gu Yan was empty-handed.

Gu Yan silently compared it to before when they were together, she was the one carrying the bags and doing the hard work, now it was Tang Yuxiu, and she didn’t have to do anything at all, which made her sigh: This is the power of love.

Tang Yuxiu, such a man, had become so gentlemanly and considerate.

Thinking about how she wouldn’t have to do these things in future life, Gu Yan felt thoroughly relaxed. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Gu Yan happily walked by Tang Yuxiu’s side, and proactively hooked his arm holding the umbrella, giving him a broad smile.

No matter how smart Tang Yuxiu was, he couldn’t know what Gu Yan was thinking now. He only noticed her good mood and proactive hooking of his arm, so his mood lifted as well, casting all thoughts of Lu Fusheng aside.

The two returned to the hospital, outside Old Sir Tang’s ward.

Gu Yan subconsciously tightened her palm, squeezing Tang Yuxiu’s sleeve.

After all, when she left before, Old Sir Tang had sought her out, even helping her to leave. At that time, she had vowed that she would absolutely leave and wouldn’t come back, but now she was back, together with Tang Yuxiu. Even though Old Sir Tang was unconscious now, she felt a bit uneasy about breaking her word.

Tang Yuxiu seemed to notice her tension and what she was thinking, and he freed up a hand to pat her head, saying, "Don’t think about anything. I told you before, I’ve already talked to my dad before coming to find you. He’s accepted you and there won’t be any more issues."

"Has he really accepted me?" Gu Yan reconfirmed.

Tang Yuxiu nodded, "In matters like this, I have no reason to lie to you."

Indeed, he had spoken to Old Sir Tang, and he wouldn’t lie.

He originally planned to personally bring Gu Yan to the old residence to see Old Sir Tang, but unexpectedly, before he could bring her back, the old man had an accident and fell into a coma.

Whether he could wake up now was a question.

"Relax a bit, my dad actually still really wants me to bring you back to see him. He’s getting older, always thinking for us. My mom passed early, and he’s lived alone in the old house for so many years, hoping we could settle down. A daughter-in-law who could frequently come back with us to visit him."

Tang Yuxiu spoke, and his mood involuntarily sank.

Originally, after his father agreed to his and Gu Yan’s matters, he thought about future life. He would often bring Gu Yan back to see him, and strive to have a child with Gu Yan to make Old Sir Tang happy, so he could feel less lonely and more joyful.

But things don’t always go according to plan, just like now, what he envisioned for the future, contained some unexpected twists.

Gu Yan held his hand, "Let’s go in."

Earlier, in Tang Yuxiu’s eyes, she saw a sadness that didn’t match him, making her heart ache. She didn’t like seeing this kind of Tang Yuxiu, so she interrupted.

Since Tang Yuxiu said Old Sir Tang had accepted her, what was there to doubt? Such an outstanding and proud person had gone such a long way to find her back, could it be fake?

She didn’t think she had anything of value for him to go to such great lengths to deceive and contrive.

Besides genuinely liking, there was no other reason.

At that moment, Gu Yan fully believed in Tang Yuxiu, with the insecurity in her heart slowly dissipating.

These days, Tang Yuxiu had been using his actions to express his earnest sincerity, hoping she could truly come to his side without being troubled by any reason.

Tang Yuxiu felt the warmth of Gu Yan’s palm and turned his head, seeing clarity and determination in Gu Yan’s eyes.

His mind suddenly relaxed, feeling a sense of ease as if they had finally reached fruition.

He held her hand, lightly smiling, and led her inside.

In the ward, unsurprisingly, Lu Fusheng hadn’t left yet. He deliberately waited here for Young Master Tang to bring Miss Gu back.

Having heard about Gu Yan for so long, finally having a chance to meet, if he didn’t seize the opportunity, he wouldn’t be Lu Fusheng.

When Gu Yan entered the hospital room, the first thing she saw was not Old Sir Tang on the hospital bed, but this incredibly stunning man.

Gu Yan was wide-eyed, completely flustered, "Sir..."

Lu Fusheng gave Gu Yan a kind smile, but no matter how friendly and pure his smile was, there was a captivating allure to it, especially in his eyes, which seemed to enchant anyone at any moment.

Even though Gu Yan’s heart already belonged to someone else, she was momentarily bewitched by Lu Fusheng’s smile.

Tang Yuxiu looked at Gu Yan’s reaction with displeasure, his cold gaze directed at Lu Fusheng across from him, and he spoke: "So late, and still here, are you planning to stay the night?"

Lu Fusheng, "..." There was something off about this statement.

"Young Master Tang, I hardly get a chance to come back, is this how you welcome me?"

"You think there needs to be a welcoming party? Do you have that much influence?" Young Master Tang looked at him disdainfully, his tone full of contempt.

Lu Fusheng was unfazed, "If Young Master Tang insists on this, I won’t object. But what’s with this disdained look? After so many years of camaraderie, you’re about to lose me with this."

This sounded so familiar!

Tang Yuxiu furrowed his eyebrows slightly, then snorted coldly, "Perfect, I also find you rather unpleasant to look at, losing you would be a relief."

Lu Fusheng, "..."

Honestly, when it came to bickering, none of them could compare to a serious Young Master Tang, who seemed invincible in verbal sparring.

"Young Master Tang, if you’re this heartless, then there’s no love between us."

"Ha," Tang Yuxiu sneered, "When did we ever have love?"

"Ah, aren’t we supposed to be in a love-hate relationship?"

Tang Yuxiu raised an eyebrow, "I think you should be cautious, because the person you’re in a love-hate relationship with is definitely not me, but that Miss Xiao who’s been chasing you for two years."

As Tang Yuxiu said this, Tang Mubei also chimed in eagerly, "Speaking of which, now that you’re back, is that Miss Xiao back with you?"

Lu Fusheng’s face stiffened slightly, but he quickly returned to his usual self and gave a casual smile, "What honest words are you babbling? That Xiao Xiao is probably running circles around the world due to the blinding technique I used on her, maybe she’ll be too dizzy to show up in front of me for quite a while."

"Are you really willing to do that?"

"Why wouldn’t I be? I wish she’d get away from me quickly, she’s been pestering me endlessly."

Upon hearing this, the brothers Tang Yuxiu and Tang Mubei both snorted coldly, "Hypocrite!"

Considering the brothers, who among them didn’t know Lu Fusheng had long been deeply infatuated, yet their identities were worlds apart, one righteous and one evil, it was said righteousness and evil cannot coexist.

Though Lu Fusheng seemed unreliable at times, he was after all from a military and political family, and had been educated since childhood to prioritize the nation and its people. He was a man on the path of light, whereas Xiao Xiao was a hitman, skirting the edges of darkness.

No matter how deeply rooted his feelings were for her, he couldn’t express them.

Now Xiao Xiao had accepted a hitman task to kill him, and this pursuit had lasted for several months. Lu Fusheng couldn’t let Xiao Xiao succeed, but he also didn’t want her lingering around him.

He genuinely feared he might one day be unable to resist confronting her.

Aware of feelings with no future, if they couldn’t be killed in its cradle, bury them deep in one’s heart and let them rot away!

Bringing up Xiao Xiao could be said to have hit Lu Fusheng’s sore spot, he instantly felt it wasn’t worthwhile to stay here anymore.

To avoid the two brothers continuing to entangle themselves with the Xiao Xiao issue, it was better to leave early.

Lu Fusheng immediately turned his gaze to Gu Yan, flashing a smile that could charm crowds, "Hey, I’m Lu Fusheng, nice to meet you, Miss Gu."

Gu Yan had been watching their conversation the whole time, unable to get a word in edgewise, unable to understand anything, so she decided to act like she was invisible on the side. But unexpectedly, Lu Fusheng suddenly turned his gaze onto her.

She was startled for a moment, then awkwardly waved her little hand, "Hi, nice to meet you, I’m Gu Yan."

"I know, I’ve heard of Miss Gu’s name for a long time. It’s truly an honor to meet you today."

"Ah?" Gu Yan felt quite flattered and surprised, "Am I really that famous?" This person obviously wasn’t simple, yet had heard of her.

Lu Fusheng glanced meaningfully at Young Master Tang beside her, and said with a smile, "Someone often mentions you, even that person’s assistant frequently talks about how Miss Gu has tamed that someone thoroughly, I’m genuinely impressed."

Gu Yan looked bewildered, not knowing what he was talking about.

What someone, what someone’s assistant, and what does taming mean?

Gu Yan thought for a moment, she suddenly knew who the someone and the assistant were, but where did taming come from?

She supposedly tamed Tang Yuxiu thoroughly?

Don’t be ridiculous, this sir hadn’t seen how much she was exploited by Tang Yuxiu before. She did everything herself, and if she really had the talent to tame Tang Yuxiu, she ought to worship!
