Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 The Fiancée

The voice on the phone was a very gentle woman speaking. Xu Niannian was originally just trying to provoke Gu Liuian, but when she heard the voice coming through the phone, a painful sensation of being torn apart like silk and thread suddenly surged through her heart. It almost made her unable to breathe. She stared blankly at Gu Liu Nian. Gu Liu Nian was speaking on the phone with a woman, and his usually cold and rigid facial features softened as he spoke to her, causing Xu Nian Nian to doubt whether the man standing before her was still the indifferent and aloof Gu Liu Nian to everyone else. She heard the woman's concern for Gu Liu Nian, and also heard Gu Liu Nian's gentle and obedient tone towards her. Gu Liu Nian's phone call lasted about three minutes, during which Xu Nian Nian felt her hands and feet becoming uncontrollably cold. He didn't hang up the phone until then. Xu Niannian asked him, "Who is she?" Xu Niannian had the first impulse to flee in panic, but reason did not allow her to run away. Perhaps, this is a chance to completely break her heart. Gu Liu Nian looked at her deeply, and this glance made Xu Nian Nian unable to figure out what he was thinking. She felt that at this moment, Gu Liu Nian was right in front of her, but it felt as if they were a million light-years apart. "My fiancée." "Fiancée?" Xu Nian Nian whispered in disbelief. There was nothing but shock and uncontrollable hurt in her eyes. Despite her sore throat, Xu Nianian persisted in asking aloud, "When did you...start...?" After a broken sentence was spoken, Xu Nian Nian realized that her eyes were aching severely. Gu Liu Nian looked at Xu Nian Nian's reddened eye sockets for a long time before speaking. "Nian Nian, I'm sorry. I can't give you what you want." "Do you love her?" Xu Nianian asked in a trembling voice. Gu Liu Nian's grip on the steering wheel tightened suddenly, and his Adam's apple moved up and down. After a long pause, he spoke in a deep voice, "Love." A single word, he nearly choked on it, with a thick, hoarse undertone. ——Xu Nianian lay listlessly on her bed, her mind filled with the words just spoken by Gu Liu'an. He loves that woman, his fiancée. Ha-ha... It's cruel of God, he finally came back, just when she had taken heart, plunging her into the abyss of despair. The next morning, Xu Nianian drove to her company. From the rearview mirror, she saw the deep blue shadows under her eyes. Last night, she didn't sleep all night. "Nian Nian, what's wrong with you?" Xu Nian Nian's superior, Gu Liu Xuan, asked with concern. Wiping the tears from her face, Xu Nian Nian choked up and said, "It's okay." "Is it because of my brother?" Gu Liuxuan tore a tissue and handed it to her, looking at her with a mixture of pity and a touch of sadness. Nian Nian is an exceptionally talented and attractive person. In other words, she is the second Gu Liu Nian. No matter what they want to accomplish, they have never failed. This real-life strong woman, apart from Gu Liu Nian, could not make her cry for anyone else. "Liuxuan, do you think Gu LiuNian has no heart?" Xu Niannian was lost in thought, when her assistant, Xiao Zhang, walked in through the door. Seeing Gu Liuxuan was also there, she was momentarily taken aback: "General Manager, Vice General Manager, Gu General Manager has called an emergency meeting and wants the two of you to come to the conference room immediately." The Gu General mentioned by Xiao Zhang is naturally Gu Liu Nian, the president of Gu's Group, who has been missing for three years and has finally returned from France. In the spacious conference room, Gu Liu Nian sat expressionless in the head seat, as if emanating a cold aura that made the people below dare not speak.
