Chapter 97: Let’s Talk

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Wencheng started to call Meng Nianyao, but she hung up. He continued to call her, but she wouldn’t answer.

Gu Wencheng’s brows gradually furrowed. He continued to make the phone call as his eyes swept across the ward.

The Yin family left after staying in the ward for less than an hour. So, other than Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, Uncle Nan, and Aunt Yang, Lin Ping was the only person in the ward who was hostile to Meng Nianyao. He asked directly, “Did you give Nianyao a hard time again?”

Lin Ping didn’t expect Gu Wencheng to question her mother on behalf of a woman. She was furious. I’m your mother!”

“I need you to answer my question.”

Lin Ping’s chest heaved. “1 don’t like Meng Nianyao, and she knows that 1 don’t like her. There’s no need for her to leave so early or so late, and yet she disappeared suddenly.” What she meant was that Meng Nianyao’s departure had nothing to do with her.

Just then, Gu Wencheng’s phone rang. It was a message from Meng Nianyao. “I’m waiting for you at Jinxiu Garden. Let’s talk.”

Gu Wencheng turned around and left immediately.

The people in the ward looked at each other.

Splendid Garden.

When Gu Wencheng returned home, he found that the lights in the house were all turned off. The chandelier in the dining room was the only thing on as it emitted a warm yellow light. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Meng Nianyao was sitting at the dining table. When she heard the door open, she got up and walked towards Gu Wencheng. “You’re back.” She reached out to take Gu Wencheng’s coat. He took her hand and looked at her expression. “Are you okay?”

Meng Nianyao shook her head.” I’m fine. Did you just come back from the hospital?” She smelled the disinfectant on his body and suddenly said with a guilty expression, “Do Grandpa and Grandma know that I’m not there anymore? I’m sorry, I’ll call them to tell them that I’m safe. Go wash up first and then eat.”

Meng Nianyao looked normal. There was a delicious dinner on the dining table that seemed to have been made by her. From the balcony came the sound of her talking to Grandma Gu on the phone, as if she was explaining why she hadn’t seen her for the whole day. There didn’t seem to be anything wrong, but Gu Wencheng felt that something was wrong. He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and went to the bathroom to shower and change his clothes. When he came out again, Meng Nianyao was already waiting at the dining table. When she saw him come out, she even smiled gently.

“Nianyao, you…” After Gu Wencheng sat down, he suddenly didn’t know what to say. She looked so normal that he didn’t know how to ask her.

“Let’s eat first. We’ll talk later.” Meng Nianyao’s words made him swallow the ones he was about to talk about.

The meal was silent.

Meng Nianyao didn’t have much of an appetite, but she still managed to take a few dishes with her chopsticks. She thought about it for a long time, knowing that she wanted to talk to Gu Wencheng openly.

After dinner, Gu Wencheng automatically cleared the table without Meng Nianyao’s permission. While he was washing the dishes, Meng Nianyao took out the tea set on the cabinet and boiled some water. The faint fragrance of tea spread through the air.

After Gu Wencheng finished washing the dishes, he saw the steam from the hot tea framing Meng Nianyao’s face, making her look gentler and more beautiful.

“Try it. This is my first time making tea. I wonder if it tastes good.” Meng Nianyao pursed her lips and smiled shyly.

“It tastes good.” Gu Wencheng tried some and gave a fair evaluation.

“Yes.” Meng Nianyao also took a sip. After confirming that Gu Wencheng wasn’t just giving her a perfunctory reply, she smiled. “Did I make you worry today?” I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose. I’m just a little shocked about finding out that I look very similar to your first love…”

Being honest was easier than she thought. She had been deceived by Meng Haotian and was also pestered by him, so no matter what, whether she was a substitute or not, it couldn’t change the fact that Gu Wencheng had given her a place to breathe when she was most sad and desperate. She was grateful to him, and she didn’t want to go to the point where she hated him.

“What?” Gu Wencheng was shocked.

“Her name was Ning Xi, right? I heard that the two of you had already reached the point of talking about marriage…” Meng Nianyao picked up the teacup and took another sip to soothe her dry throat. Even though they could talk, the bitterness in her heart couldn’t disappear. At least at this moment, she was a little envious of Ning Xi to be able to openly discuss marriage with him and get the approval of his parents and friends. Even Yin Qiqi had an expression of admiration and regret when she mentioned Ning Xi.

Ning Xi…She must have been a very, very outstanding girl..
