Chapter 988 (1/2)
988 Keeping a Close LookouBased on Gu Nianzhi’s understanding of the Tan family, there was only one person who, as a last resort, would be able to stop the two crazy parent-in-laws, Cai Songyin and Tan Dongbang It was their precious daughter, Tan Guiren However, how Gu Nianzhi felt about Tan Guiren was complicated
Up until now, Tan Guiren had not exactly partaken in anything that could exactly be regarded as a misdeed She wasn’t someone like Gu Yanran and was definitely not soht upon her harm that was substantial and irrevocable It would be impossible for Gu Nianzhi to reconcile with them
Tan Guiren, on the other hand, was a little better than Xu Piaohong and Gui Suyao
With that being said, the harm that she caused to Gu Nianzhi was actually the most severe However, Gu Nianzhi knew deep inside her heart that what had happened could not entirely be attributed to and blamed upon Tan Guiren After all, she had her whole life planned out by her dear parents, and all she had to do was ant
Even though she had a secret crush on Huo Shaoheng, she did not approach Gu Nianzhi brazenly and provoke her like Xu Piaohong did Most i the violin Gu Nianzhi had the opportunity to see her violin perfor to herto nature
One’s hts would not be able to produce such pure music Music was just like other kinds of art; in order to reach the highest level of success, one must possess a clear conscience It could even be said that for that to be possible, one must see no evil True artistic success may only be reached with an exceptionally carefree heart If an artist was so sophisticated, his works would inevitably be filled with artistry
Tan Guiren was very well protected by her parents She was co that she would be out of tune with the could produce a sound like that But what if she left her parents’ protection?
Gu Nianzhi considered as she went to the kitchen to pour He Zhichu a cup of coffee Tan Guiren probably would not be able to live if that happened Tan Guiren was truly akin to a Chinese dodder flower, beautiful yet so fragile that it would die without any support She was destined to walk away from her parents arms into her husband’s arms, then be sheltered by her husband for the rest of her life
On the other hand, Gu Nianzhi’s English name was Cereus, also known as an epiphylluarded as a cactus, since an epiphyllum was a plant classified as part of caryophyllales, which included the cacti A cereus was pure white and looked delicate but had tenacious vitality
She thought about hoas a cactus that blooht that it was appropriate Gu Nianzhi strongly felt that only it could truly portray her She had no parents or close relatives, but with Huo Shaoheng by her side, she was able to grow up safe and sound
Unlike Tan Guiren, she never thought of living the rest of her life under Huo Shaoheng’s protection and would never want to do that She belonged with the cereus, the species of cacti plants that grew on barren lands They possessed not only tenacious vitality but also bore thorns all over them If anyone wanted to make life difficult for her, she would do the same to that person first It was just that simple
Gu Nianzhi held back her compassion She walked out of the kitchen with two cups of coffee and placed them on the coffee table “Professor He, black coffee, your favorite”
Gu Nianzhi ar while He Zhichu drank his coffee in one gulp “I need to adjust to the time difference today I’ back Will you let lanced at He Zhichu then nodded “Let uest room for you”
He Zhichu sat on the sofa and watched as Gu Nianzhi ently like a little bee He felt warradually fell asleep as he leaned back on the sofa
Gu Nianzhi cauest room and saw that He Zhichu was already fast asleep on the sofa The setting sun shone through the solden rays appeared on the cherrywood floorboard It invoked a feeling of peace, calm, and coently spread them over He Zhichu After that, she walked into her own bedroom, closed the door, took out her cell phone, and called Speaker Long
