The next day, it started snowing again. Meng Nianyao was dressed in white, holding a transparent umbrella as she stood outside. Her hair was disheveled, and she looked like she had just walked out of a painting.

Gu Wencheng watched her from behind. Meng Nianyao turned around and said to him, “We should try our best to be safe in front of Grandpa and Grandma so that we don’t worry them.”

Gu Wencheng didn’t answer, so Meng Nianyao turned around and walked away. After a few steps, she stood still and waited for him. When she reached the living room, the expression on her face had eased a lot.

Grandma Gu was in the kitchen, and Meng Nianyao went to help, but Grandma Gu seemed to have realized something.

After dinner, she said to Auntie Yang, “Auntie Yang, come with me to pack my clothes. Let Gu Wencheng and Nianyao clean up the kitchen.”

Auntie Yang responded and left.

Only Meng Nianyao and Gu Wencheng were left on the first floor. After Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu left, Meng Nianyao started to clean up. When Gu Wencheng tried to help her, she didn’t turn him down.

Grandma Gu and Auntie Yang were watching them from the corner of the second floor. Gu Wencheng suddenly reached out his hand to Meng Nianyao. She subconsciously tried to move out of the way, but Gu Wencheng lowered his voice and said, “Don’t move. Grandma and the others are watching.”

Meng Nianyao stopped moving. Gu Wencheng reached out and tucked the hair on her cheek behind her ear. Meng Nianyao looked at him with an indescribable feeling in her heart. After tidying up the kitchen, the two of them went upstairs and returned to the bedroom. Meng Nianyao went to the bathroom to take a shower first. When she came out of the bathroom, she didn’t see Gu Wencheng anywhere.

The bedroom was empty. Meng Nianyao let out a long sigh. She was not good at quarreling and throwing tantrums. Cold wars were very tiring and uncomfortable for her. To her, quarreling was like cutting her own finger. Although it would heal, it would take a long time for the scar to fade.

Meng Nianyao went to bed.

This state lasted for many days. In front of Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu, Gu Wencheng and Meng Nianyao were in love, but behind closed doors, they didn’t say a word to each other. Until the day before Chinese New Year’s Eve, Ping Yang called Meng Nianyao and asked if she could help send a document to the company.

Meng Nianyao had nothing to do these few days, so she agreed. When they arrived at the Gu Corporation, there weren’t many people in the company. Ping Yang came down to pick Meng Nianyao up. Meng Nianyao originally planned to leave after delivering the documents, but Ping Yang brought her into the elevator.

“Where’s Gu Wencheng?” Meng Nianyao asked.

“The boss is in his office,” Ping Yang said as she glanced at Meng Nianyao.

Meng Nianyao turned to look at Ping Yang. Perhaps it was because Meng Nianyao and Gu Wencheng had been married for a long time, but their temperaments were becoming more and more similar. At this moment, Meng Nianyao was staring at Ping Yang without batting an eyelid. Ping Yang felt as if she was being watched by Gu Wencheng. She could only smile and explain, “Lady Boss, please don’t blame me. I’m just following orders. The boss is waiting for you in the office.” With that, the elevator arrived on the designated floor, and Ping Yang left first.

Meng Nianyao stood where she was. Gu Wencheng’s office was at the end of the corridor. After a long while, she walked up to the door. Meng Nianyao was still a little hesitant, but in the end, she pushed the office door open.

The entire office was covered with rose petals that formed a heart shape. There was a circle of pink candles around the petals. Gu Wencheng stood in the middle, wearing a white shirt and playing the piano.

Meng Nianyao stood there and stared.

After the song ended, Gu Wencheng got up and walked towards her. Meng Nianyao already knew what Gu Wencheng was going to do. After getting along with him for so long, she knew that he wasn’t good with words. He probably wanted to apologize, but couldn’t find the words.

Meng Nianyao held back her laughter and pretended not to know anything. “What’s the matter?” she asked coldly.

“Nianyao…! was wrong. I’m sorry,” Gu Wencheng said in a hoarse voice.

Meng Nianyao’s eyes suddenly turned red. All she wanted was an apology. Gu Wencheng’s act of locking her up made her feel very insecure. The moment the door was locked, she even felt that there was no future between the two of them because they were not equal. The gap between identity and status was already a gap that she could not cross.

Meng Nianyao tilted her head and took a deep breath to calm her emotions. “I…” Her voice was choked with sobs. She took a deep breath and continued, “I’m not a person who makes trouble for no reason. I don’t even like to hold grudges. I can’t even remember what we quarreled about. If you hadn’t locked me in the bedroom, I might have forgotten about that small matter..”
