The unscrupulous system forced me to frantically test the small black room

Gu Chengxiu stood up straight and looked at Lang Bushin with a serious expression.

"Lang Bushin, listen to me, my dad just said that my grandfather has also returned to China. He hasn't been back for decades." Gu Chengxiu said.

"So what? What does this have to do with your and my marriage? Are you really planning to marry me?" Lang Bushin said.

Gu Chengxiu frowned and his expression was not very good.

"The only person in the country who can make my grandfather pay enough attention to him to come back in person is probably my brother Gu Dongnan."

"I suspect that my grandfather found out about my brother being with a man so he came here to deal with it personally."

"Even if grandpa didn't know about this, were you ready to come out directly at the dinner table just now?"

"Are you going to come straight to the point and tell my dad and your dad that you are gay and that your partner is Gu Dongnan?"

"Believe it or not, if you let my dad know about this tonight, my grandfather will just move his fingers tomorrow and your Lang family will be gone." Gu Chengxiu said.

Lang Bushin was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time.

"It's not as exaggerated as you say. Can your grandfather cover the sky with one hand? It's like a novel." Lang Bushin said.

"Yes, he can cover the sky with one hand."

"Lang Bushin, do you dare to gamble everything your parents have now just because of your childishness and impulsiveness?"

In fact, Gu Chengxiu only said half of the words.

If Mr. Gu moves his fingers, not only the Lang family but also the people in the Lang family will disappear in an instant.

"But as long as Dong Nan and I are together, they will eventually know about this, and then we will have to face the problem as well." Lang Bushin said in a troubled tone.

"That's a matter for later. You can go back and discuss how to deal with it. Right now, we need to deal with the problem more urgently. Let's get through this first."

"Don't let anything slip later. Just insist that we are a couple."

"Let's put the engagement off for now. When my dad and grandpa return to the U.S., we can say we're breaking up because of our relationship discord," said Gu Chengxiu.

Lang Bushin lost the ability to think and could only nod in confusion.

After finishing this "Hongmen Banquet", Lang Bushin turned around and went to Gu Dongnan's residence, knocking on Gu Dongnan's door.

Gu Dongnan had already gone to bed. When he heard a hurried knock on the door and Lang Bushin calling him, he got up and opened the door in confusion.

As soon as the door opened, Lang Bushin rushed over and hugged Gu Dongnan.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going home for a dinner? Are you unhappy with the meal?" Gu Dongnan asked.

Lang Bushin shook his head in Gu Dongnan's arms.

"What happened?" Gu Dongnan asked.

Lang Bushin raised his head with a conflicted look on his face.

"Dongnan, I..." Lang Bushin hesitated for a long time and didn't know how to start.

"If you don't really want to say it, you don't have to say it yet." Gu Dongnan said gently.

"No, no, I have to say it."

"Dongnan, I'm engaged to your sister Gu Chengxiu." Lang Bushin said.

Gu Dongnan's expression changed when he heard this, but he still remained rational.

"I don't understand what you mean." Gu Dongnan said.

Lang Bushin came out of Gu Dongnan's arms and scratched his head in annoyance.

"I don't even know how to tell you this. I'm totally confused right now."

"Remember the last time my dad called me and asked me to go on a blind date, and I said in a hurry that Gu Chengxiu was my partner?"

"You said at the time that you were afraid of causing trouble, but you didn't expect that it would really happen."

"I'm having dinner tonight with Gu Chengxiu's father. Her father and I were good friends when we were young. When he found out that we were a couple, he wanted to arrange an engagement."

"How could I agree to that? I was planning to come out, and then Gu Chengxiu said that his father returned to China with your grandfather, and then..."

Lang Bushin was halfway through his words when he suddenly noticed that Gu Dongnan's face had turned pale and he looked weak.

Lang Bushin immediately rushed over and grabbed Gu Dongnan's arm.

"Dong Nan, don't be anxious. It's not what you think. I don't really want to marry Gu Chengxiu."

"She said that she couldn't let her father know that you and I were a couple, so she had to make do with the expedient of continuing to lie to them that she and I were a couple."

"I've already told her that when your grandfather returns to the United States, we'll say we're breaking up and cancel the engagement," Lang Bushin said.

Gu Dongnan's expression did not improve at all because of Lang Bushin's words.

"Are you sure my grandpa has returned?" Gu Dongnan said.

"Yes, that's what Gu Chengxiu's father said himself."

"Don't be afraid, Dongnan. If anything happens, we'll face it together. He's still your grandfather after all. Even if he disagrees, can't he kill me and destroy the body?"

"Gu Chengxiu, what she said is really exaggerated. She said that if your grandfather took action, my family would go bankrupt. How can it be so exaggerated?"

"Although my Lang family is not a big company, it has been here for decades. How can it go bankrupt so easily?"

Lang Buxin kept on nagging at Gu Dongnan to comfort him, but Gu Dongnan remained silent and just stared at Lang Buxin in a daze.

Lang Bushin calmed down, his heart, which had been tense all the time, slowly sank, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Dong Nan, what Gu Chengxiu said to me was a lie, right?" Lang Bushin said.

Gu Dongnan raised his eyebrows, his eyes were wet and red, and he was at a loss.

Lang Bushin felt torn in his heart, and he couldn't help but grab Gu Dongnan's hand with force, which made Gu Dongnan feel pain.

"Dongnan, why haven't you spoken a word?"

"Please talk to me. I'm so scared when you ignore me like this."

"My family won't be affected by our affairs, right? You are so powerful, you will definitely protect me and my family, right?" Lang Bushin said in a crying voice.

"I will do my best to protect you."

"But, Lang Bushin, you still have time to leave now." Gu Dongnan said in a hoarse voice.

Lang Bushin's pupils constricted when he heard this, and he excitedly grabbed Gu Dongnan's collar.

"What did you just mean by that?"

"You want to break up with me?" Lang Bushin yelled.

"I……"

Negative words flowed between Gu Dongnan's lips, but he could never say them.

The request that she had vowed to make was firmly chosen, and she said loudly that she would do her best to protect Lang Bushin and his family.

But when I really faced this situation, I was the first to show my weakness.

Only then did Gu Dongnan realize that he was too weak. How could he have the ability to protect the one he loved like an ant shaking a tree?

Even if I just imagined in my mind that the person in front of me was harmed in the slightest because of my incompetence, I was so scared that I could hardly breathe.

As long as he and the people he cares about are doing well, letting go doesn't seem to be an unbearable thing for him.
