Today, Gong Mohan was gentler and more patient than usual.
Holding the baby's hand, he walked slowly in the church with Gu Wan. Step by step, the whole family felt the solemnity together.
In the afternoon, the whole family went home early.
After turning on the TV and playing cartoons for the baby in the living room, Gong Mohan went into the kitchen to help Gu Wan.
Gu Wan, who was humming a song and chopping vegetables, felt someone staring at her from behind.
She didn't have to guess to know that it was Gong Mohan. Therefore, she pretended not to know and didn't say anything. She wanted to see how long Gong Mohan would stare at her.
But after a few minutes, there was still no sound from Gong Mohan behind her. Gu Wan finally couldn't help putting down the knife in her hand. She decided to turn around and see why Gong Mohan was staring at her.
Could it be that he was admiring his knife skills?
But as soon as Gu Wan turned around, she ran into a broad chest.
"You …"
Before Gu Wan could finish her words, she was hugged tightly by Gong Mohan.
Gu Wan felt more and more strange.
She slightly broke away from Gong Mohan and tried to look up. At this time, there was a special and complicated emotion in Gong Mohan's eyes.
Gu Wan had a bad feeling.
She combined the strange behavior of Gong Mohan in the past two days and what she had seen. She had to say again, "I feel that you have been a little strange these days. Is there something that even I can't tell you?"
Gong Mohan hesitated for a few seconds, but then he took Gu Wan into his arms again.
He hugged Gu Wan more tightly. After a few seconds, he seemed to make up his mind and sighed.
"Wan Wan …" Gong Mohan's voice was full of helplessness and guilt.
"Yes?" Facing him like this, Gu Wan felt a little surprised and strange.
"Something did happen these days." Gong Mohan bent down slightly and buried his head in Gu Wan's shoulder, looking a little tired.
"Hurry up and tell me. No matter what it is, I believe in you and I will support you." Gu Wan gently caressed Gong Mohan's face and said gently.
"…"/p
Gong Mohan was touched by Gu Wan's words. At the same time, he made up his mind to be honest with Gu Wan.
"Yesterday morning, I received a call from Xu Yang. He said that Tiancheng Group, which had never had any disputes with our company, suddenly took away a lot of our company's resources. Many of our former partners also wanted to terminate their contracts with us for some reason. "
"So, I have to go back tomorrow morning …" Gong Mohan's voice was getting lower and lower, and his tone was getting heavier and heavier.
"…"
Gu Wan didn't know what to say at the moment.
Sure enough, what she had been worried about had happened. In fact, Gu Wan had already thought about it long before they came. Gong Mohan had such a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. During their trip, there would definitely be matters that he had to deal with in the company.
But she didn't expect that everything would happen so fast.
At this moment, she didn't know what she wanted to say, nor did she know what she should say. She didn't know what Gong Mohan wanted her to say.
The atmosphere was in a deadlock for a few minutes.
At this moment, for the two of them, everything in the world seemed to be still. There were no movements, no words, no changes.
The two of them even hoped that time would be still like this. In this way, the family could always be together. They could touch each other and look at each other.
"…"
Finally, Gu Wan pinched her trouser legs, trying to calm herself down. "It's okay. Let's go back. Let's go back together …"
"We can come out again next time. It's been a few days. We're all very happy and blissful …"
Although Gu Wan tried to control herself, she still couldn't hide it from Gong Mohan.
He could clearly feel that Gu Wan's tone was full of sadness and grievance.
Gong Mohan didn't dare to look at Gu Wan's eyes. He was afraid that her eyes would be full of disappointment and disgust for him.
He knew that his sudden departure would overturn the happiness of the past few days, and he also knew that the mother and son would be even more disappointed in him, but he had no choice. Life was in front of him, and he had no choice but to make this terrible decision.
Gu Wan supported and understood his attitude. While he was moved, he also felt more guilty.
How could he not know that no matter what decision he made, Gu Wan would definitely support and encourage him. She would never make things difficult for him, but he didn't want to see her so understanding, because it would highlight his failure and dereliction of duty.
The thoughts in his heart couldn't be expressed in words.
Gong Mohan hugged Gu Wan and said like a spoiled child, "Thank you, Wan Wan …"
"I'm sorry."
"…"
Gu Wan responded to his coquettishness and answered him in her usual tone, "It's okay. Work is more important. Anyway, we have plenty of time to go out and play in the future. It's nothing. Don't worry. I'll coax Hou Baobao … "
Gong Mohan silently listened to Gu Wan's words, and his heart was filled with warmth.
"Continue with your trip with the baby. I've already found an old friend. She'll take you and the baby out to play in the next few days."
"Don't worry. I've talked to her. She's a good person. I believe you'll get along very well. "
"If there's anything, you can call me at any time. I'll come over to pick you up and take you back to China … "
After Gu Wan finished speaking, Gong Mohan began to speak.
This was all an impromptu plan he'd made in the past two days.
This was the best method he could think of. Although he wasn't around anymore, he believed that with Gu Wan's personality and adorable appearance, everyone would like her, and she would get along well with everyone.
He didn't want their trip to end just because of him. Since they were already out, he would let all the plans be carried out.
"No need. We'll go back with you. "
"Without you, there's no point in our trip."
"So, we're willing to wait for you. We'll go together next time." Gu Wan stared into Gong Mohan's eyes, and her eyes were full of unwavering determination.
"Wan Wan …" Gong Mohan also looked back at Gu Wan, and there was still some hesitation in his eyes.
But since he'd already heard Gu Wan's words, he was actually very gratified and moved.
"Anyway, we've already gone to St. Paul's Church, and there's nothing else I'm looking forward to. Besides, the baby and I feel tired these days. Today, the baby told me that he wants to eat the shrimp balls Aunt Liu made for him. So, let's go back together, "Gu Wan said proudly, and directly showed her unshakable attitude.
Since Gu Wan said so, Gong Mohan had nothing else to say.
Therefore, considering that this would be their last dinner here, Gong Mohan took the initiative to tie the apron around Gu Wan's waist with his fingers.
Gu Wan immediately dodged. She gently patted Gong Mohan's hand and pretended to be disgusted. "Since it's our last dinner, let me cook. After all, someone's cooking skills …"
Seeing Gu Wan's speechless expression, Gong Mohan wanted to regain some status for his cooking skills. However, Gu Wan hurriedly pushed him out of the door.
"Don't make trouble here. Hurry up and get out. Don't affect this chef's performance. Also, hurry up and tell your friend. He'll be ready in a while …"
"Hurry up, hurry up …" Gu Wan pushed Gong Mohan hard and kept nagging.
Amused by her worried appearance, Gong Mohan couldn't help but laugh. His face was also full of uncontrollable happiness.
At the same time, he also let out a sigh of relief.
In the past two days, he couldn't even sleep well because of this matter.
He didn't know how to tell Gu Wan. He didn't want to see the happy mother and son disappointed and sad because of this. At first, it was him who took them out on a trip, but in the end, it was also him who had to leave early.
When Gong Mohan heard the news from Xu Yang, he was almost desperate. At that time, he even thought about giving up the company, but in the end, he had to accept it due to reality and his own sense of responsibility.
In the end, Gong Mohan decided not to tell Gu Wan and the baby the bad news. He still pretended to be relaxed and happy. Then, he changed his schedule and finally accompanied Gu Wan to the church that she wanted to go to most, trying to show his devotion to this family to God.
Gong Mohan's footsteps became lighter as he finally lifted the boulder that had been weighing down on his heart.
Looking at Gong Mohan's gradually disappearing figure, Gu Wan tightened the apron again, and then let out a silent sigh.
It would be a lie to say that she wasn't disappointed, but she didn't feel sad.
Although the trip that she had been looking forward to was about to end early, Gu Wan didn't care very much.
As long as it could relieve Gong Mohan's psychological pressure and let the family be together safely, it didn't matter where they were.
They would all be happy.
Thinking of this, Gu Wan completely let go.
She hummed a song again and began to cook delicious dishes one after another.
The next morning, the whole family got on the plane and went back home.
The baby didn't feel sad because the trip ended early. He was even a little happy.
The food and scenery of foreign countries were far less attractive to the baby than Aunt Liu's shrimp balls at home. Therefore, he gladly accepted what Gong Mohan told him last night.
At this moment, the baby, who was sleeping in Gong Mohan's arms, had a satisfied smile on his face.
When Gu Wan and Gong Mohan saw it, they looked at each other and smiled, and even their eyes were full of happiness.
The plane landed safely soon. After Gong Mohan, Gu Wan, and the baby went home together, it was still early, so they drove to the company.
