Gu Wan couldn't help but feel sympathetic. If Mo Xuerong didn't cry in front of her, then even if Mo Xuerong cried until she fainted, Gu Wan probably wouldn't care.
However, Gu Wan had to pass by the place where Mo Xuerong was crying. Although she didn't see Mo Xuerong's face, she felt that Mo Xuerong must have something difficult to say.
So, Gu Wan couldn't help but pay attention to Mo Xuerong. If Gu Wan knew that Gu Wan's carelessness had brought her so much trouble, she probably wouldn't be so emotional.
When Mo Xuerong saw that Gu Wan took the initiative to pay attention to her, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.
If someone looked down at Mo Xuerong at this moment, they would definitely see a flash of success in her lowered eyes.
But no one saw it.
When Mo Xuerong raised her head again, the previous expression had been completely covered, and there was no trace of it on her face.
Now, it was replaced by a pitiful face. Mo Xuerong was used to acting like this. Even the tone of her voice when she spoke showed an appropriate kind of grievance.
"I … I …" Mo Xuerong had always been like this. She had always been like this. She believed that girls were more precious when they were given a little bit of sunshine.
If she paid a little more attention to propriety, or did this to a man, they probably wouldn't be able to stop.
But Mo Xuerong was probably a little too eager for quick success and instant benefits. She wanted too much results, so she was too aggressive.
Instead, it was a little too much. Her bashfulness made people feel a little uncomfortable. According to common sense, this shouldn't be a mistake that Mo Xuerong should have made.
There was no expression on Gong Mohan's face, but he was a little impatient in his heart. He didn't even know why, but he had been inexplicably rejecting Mo Xuerong recently.
If Gu Wan hadn't stopped, Gong Mohan would probably have turned a deaf ear to her crying and walked past her.
But Gu Wan was different. Since she asked, she must finish what she started.
Gu Wan couldn't help but frown when she saw Mo Xuerong like this. Her intuition told her that something was wrong, but she had no choice. Gu Wan's curiosity drove her to continue asking. "Say it. It's fine. There are no outsiders here."
Gu Wan tried her best to comfort Mo Xuerong, worrying that she might have encountered something bad.
It was hard for her to see it, but at least they didn't get to know each other in vain.
When Gu Wan finished her words, she even looked around as a warning.
Wherever she looked, the servants all lowered their heads.
The servants were usually the most discerning people. They had always been very clear about who was the easiest to serve and who they could not afford to offend. Their hearts were as clear as a mirror.
They had seen Gu Wan's arrogance and Gong Mohan's sharpness before, so they naturally didn't dare to have any conflict with them.
If they didn't want to see it, then they wouldn't see it. No matter what, their lives were more important than gossip.
Seeing this, Gu Wan withdrew her eyes and looked at Mo Xuerong again.
"Really?" A smile appeared on Gu Wan's lips. "They aren't watching it."
With his back to Gu Wan, Gong Mohan didn't see the smile on Gu Wan's lips. However, he could infer the emotional changes of a person from the details.
Just like at this moment, from Gu Wan's slightly raised tone, Gong Mohan could feel that she was in a relaxed mood at this moment, and there was probably a smile on her face.
Thinking of such a possibility, Gong Mohan couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Mo Xuerong, who was talking to Gu Wan.
At this point, it had to be said that Gong Mohan was very possessive and liked to be jealous very much. Even when he was jealous, it didn't matter when, who, or where, he was constantly jealous.
If Gu Wan knew the changes in Gong Mohan's mind at this moment, she would definitely despise Gong Mohan again.
"Yes." At this moment, Mo Xuerong was really like a girl who had lost her footing. When Gu Wan spoke, Mo Xuerong looked at Gu Wan seriously without blinking her eyes.
When Gu Wan finished speaking, she nodded blankly, which was very obedient.
Her acting skills could be said to be very good. She was probably on par with Gu Wan. Could it be said that this skill of pretending was an innate skill of women?
Seeing this, Gu Wan didn't have any defense in her heart. It could be said that Mo Xuerong made good use of her sympathy, so that Gu Wan couldn't help but soften her heart.
She nodded with a smile. "Besides, Gong Mohan is not an outsider, right? You said that you are friends. Can't you tell your friend what's troubling you?"
Gu Wan's tone was gentle, as if she were not facing Mo Xuerong, but a crying child.
As a matter of fact, Gu Wan thought so too. Back then, when Gu Xiaotian was still young, he would act like this whenever he made a mistake or encountered some difficulties.
He looked pitiful and felt all kinds of grievances, but he just didn't say it out.
Now that Gu Wan saw Mo Xuerong like this, she couldn't help overlapping the image of Gu Xiaotian in her mind, so she was very patient.
On the other hand, when Gong Mohan heard Gu Wan speak to him in such a gentle tone, he immediately felt a little uncomfortable.
It should be noted that Gu Wan and Gong Mohan rarely spoke in such a gentle tone.
After all, in Gu Wan's mind, Gong Mohan was like a god, who was always aloof but occasionally down-to-earth. If she spoke to such a person in such a gentle tone, not only would Gong Mohan feel strange, but even Gu Wan would feel strange.
Therefore, Gong Mohan was certainly a little unhappy. Since he was unhappy, he would naturally take some actions. Therefore, he secretly pinched a bit of flesh with one of his hands that was holding Gu Wan's leg, and then he slightly tightened his grip, and then tightened his grip …
When Gu Wan sensed that something was wrong, she thought that Gong Mohan was teasing her, so she didn't pay much attention to it. She continued to look at Mo Xuerong, waiting for Mo Xuerong's reaction.
Later, the slight pain on her leg suddenly became greater. Gu Wan couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah ~"
Seeing this, Mo Xuerong didn't know what was going on, but a strange look flashed across her eyes.
"What's wrong with you?!"
Gu Wan was probably driven mad by the pain of Gong Mohan's sparing no effort. She started to speak without thinking too much about it.
The proper expression of grievance on Mo Xuerong's face suddenly cracked, and a trace of surprise flashed across her face.
At the beginning, Mo Xuerong thought that Gu Wan was a little impolite to Gong Mohan under special circumstances, but she didn't expect that she would be so impolite.
At the beginning, Mo Xuerong probably thought that Gong Mohan would fly into a rage and directly throw Gu Wan off his back and fiercely throw her to the ground, regardless of how strong Gu Wan was on his back.
Mo Xuerong thought that she understood Gong Mohan's character. He was affectionate, but he was also heartless.
When Gong Mohan hadn't let go of his past, it wouldn't be too much for him to treat her well. But when he finally let go of his past, it was possible for him to turn against her. Perhaps all men were like that.
And no one knew how long it would take from "not letting go" to "really letting go", and no one could predict it.
It might be a month, a year, ten years, or even a lifetime. It might also be the moment when he turned around.
No matter how much he doted on you, he could also give you as much despair. This was the truth that Mo Xuerong had realized after interacting with Gong Mohan recently.
The more she understood, the more confused she became. It was like a mass of fog. Standing in the distance, she could roughly see that it was a fog, and there would be a general shape in her vision. But if she walked into it and went deep into it, she couldn't see it clearly. She even didn't know who she was, where she was, and what she was doing.
So, how would Gong Mohan react at this moment, Mo Xuerong really didn't know, and she didn't dare to guess. Anyway, it was definitely not that simple.
In fact, Gong Mohan didn't abandon Gu Wan as Mo Xuerong first ruled out.
He even tightened his arms silently, and didn't let go of Gu Wan, who began to shake uneasily on his back.
Yes, even if they stopped to talk, Gong Mohan didn't put Gu Wan down. Under the sunshine outside the window, Gong Mohan carried Gu Wan on his back. The shadows cast on the ground were intertwined, as if they had grown up together.
He seemed to have found the reason why he was so reluctant to let go of her.
Gu Wan also seemed to be influenced by Gong Mohan. She lay steadily on Gong Mohan's back, and didn't try to move anymore.
Gong Mohan didn't respond to Gu Wan's impolite words. Instead, his gaze finally landed on Mo Xuerong, and he looked her in the eye.
Feeling that Gong Mohan's eyes were fixed on her, Mo Xuerong's heart suddenly beat uncontrollably, and she even felt a little guilty.
She thought silently in her heart, "Is Gong Mohan angry because I said we are friends? If he is angry, does it prove that Gong Mohan still has some attachment to me?"
However, Gong Mohan's next words soon proved that Mo Xuerong thought too much.
Gong Mohan said casually, "Go ahead, my friend. I also want to hear it."
He didn't care at all, as if he was talking about something he didn't care about at all.
Mo Xuerong and Gong Mohan had known each other for many years, and now they were working together, so she naturally knew Gong Mohan's tone.
