Fu Xiyao's heart immediately felt as if it had been tightly grasped by a large palm. It was very painful.
In the previous life, Ling Li Mu had been climbing up for her until he could only match her height. In this life, Ling Li Mu was still working hard for her.
Even if Fu Xiyao knew that Ling Li Mu would be a powerful businessman in the future, she still hoped that he could live a simple, free and ordinary life at this moment. Ling Li Mu had too many burdens in his life. He was cold and introverted and didn't tell others. Now, in order to be with her, he carried more burdens.
However, Fu Xiyao didn't want to let go of his hand.
In the future, she would love him more.
She would give him more love.
Fu Xiyao clenched his big hand and nodded hard. "Honey, I believe you."
Ling Li Mu looked at her bright eyes, which were full of love for him. He slowly smiled and whispered, "Have you had dinner?"
"Yes."
"Then …" Ling Li Mu bowed his head and kissed the hair beside her ear. "Can you come with me now?"
Fu Xiyao's beautiful face immediately became red. "Yes."
"Do you want to go back and say hello? I'll wait for you here."
"No …"
Fu Xiyao looked up at the Mousi Villa in front of her. She saw a handsome and noble figure standing on the carved railing on the second floor of the villa. It was Gu Yelin.
Gu Yelin stood there, wearing a white shirt and black trousers. The sleeves of the shirt were rolled up, revealing his strong and thin wrist and the precious steel watch on his wrist. He was the successor of the empire. His clothes were ironed without any wrinkles. He was full of condescension and indifference. Now his deep and narrow eyes fell on Fu Xiyao and … Ling Li Mu.
"Yelin," they came over at this time. "Have you seen Yaoyao? Why is she gone in the blink of an eye?"
The corners of Gu Yelin's lips curved upwards. "Oh, Sister Yaoyao just informed me that she's leaving first."
Fu Xiyao naturally saw Mommy Shishi and Mommy Mo. She was shocked, but she didn't expect that Gu Yelin easily solved the problem for her.
Fu Xiyao smiled gratefully.
Gu Yelin's narrow eyes slowly fell from Fu Xiyao's beautiful face to Ling Li Mu's handsome face. Ling Li Mu was also looking at him.
The two of them looked at each other. Even though they came from different backgrounds, they were both favored by the heavens. Of course, they did not know that the future legend of the business world, "Gu of the South and Bei Ling of the North", would dominate the economic lifeline for a century. Now that their eyes met, sparks flew.
"Hubby, I've already called my mommy. Let's go now." Fu Xiyao said in a sweet voice.
"Alright."
Ling Li Mu left with Fu Xiyao.
"Hubby, where are we going now?" Fu Xiyao asked.
"To my place."
"Where do you live?"
"Hotel."
…
The Gu family.
When Gu Yelin reached home, he didn't sleep. Instead, he was working in the study room.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The maid came in and brought him a cup of coffee. "Young Master, your coffee."
Gu Yelin's slender fingers danced quickly on the keyboard. The computer screen flashed a mess of financial data, which made his handsome face flicker. He didn't look up, but just lightly moved his thin lips. "Okay, put it down. Thank you."
The maid walked out.
After a while, the door of the study room was pushed open. Tang Mo 'er walked in. "Yelin, it's so late. Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Gu Yelin was still looking at the financial data. "Mom, you sleep first. I'll sleep later."
Tang Mo 'er frowned. "Yelin, I'm very worried about Yaoyao now. The royal family, Castle Guding and Earl Roy are competing. I'm most afraid that Yaoyao will get hurt."
Tang Mo 'er doted on Fu Xiyao like her own daughter.
Gu Yelin retracted his hand, picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip. He then lifted his deep and narrow eyes to look at Tang Mo 'er. "Mom, I saw the boy that Yaoyao likes today. He's not bad, he'll climb up the social ladder for Yaoyao, but …"
Gu Yelin shrugged his handsome shoulders. "Sometimes, one's family background can't be bridged. How much is true love worth? So I don't think they'll be together."
Hearing her own son say 'how much is true love worth', Tang Mo 'er's face turned bitter. She had given birth to a son and a daughter for Gu Mohan. This pair of children had astonishing IQs since young. When other children were playing with toys, this pair of siblings were already fiddling with computer data. They were simply a pair of freaks.
As Gu Yelin grew up, he set up a company in Los Angeles and went to vanity fair every day. He exuded a cold aura of an elite in the business world. He was already 20 years old and had never been in a relationship before. He had no interest in women at all. He was most interested in data, data, data!
Tang Mo 'er was worried sick.
"Yelin, when you and Yaoyao were young, we all thought that the two of you would be a good match. We even arranged a marriage between the two of you. But who knew that the two of you would drift apart when you grew up. You're already a grown man, but you haven't even been in a relationship before. Tell me honestly, what's going on in that head of yours?"
Here it was again!
Here it was again!
Ever since he turned 18, this mother of his had been nagging him to get married.
Gu Yelin promptly put down the coffee and got up. "Mom, sleep early."
He turned around to leave.
"Hey, Yelin, why are you leaving? I'm telling you, I watched Yaoyao grow up. If she's in any danger, you have to protect her, understand?"
"Understood!"
Bam! Gu Yelin slammed the door shut.
Tang Mo 'er, who had been given the cold shoulder, was speechless.
Why did she feel that Niuniu was still the cutest?
…
The next morning.
When the dazzling rays of the morning sun shone through the layers of golden curtains, Fu Xiyao slowly opened her eyes. She was awake.
She was now in the hotel room, and her delicate body was still in a warm and broad embrace.
Fu Xiyao's long eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes. Ling Li Mu's handsome face quickly enlarged in her sight.
He hadn't woken up yet, and Fu Xiyao could look at his handsome face freely.
His wavy bangs covered his handsome and deep eyelids. Now he was a little more gentle and warm than usual.
Biting her red lips, Fu Xiyao discreetly stretched out her fair fingers to caress his face.
But in the next second, a big hand reached over and held her small hand.
Ling Li Mu slowly opened his eyes and woke up.
"Honey, good morning." Fu Xiyao smiled sweetly.
"Morning."
Ling Li Mu looked down and kissed her little hand.
