The melodious ringtone sounded once and the call was picked up. Huo Yanmei's voice came through the phone. "Hello, Mohan …"
Gu Mohan's lips curved into a sarcastic smile and his voice was hoarse. "Come over and take the woman you've arranged to leave. Don't dirty my place."
Huo Yanmei's breathing tightened. "Mohan, Mom doesn't want to force you, but Tang Mo 'er has been poisoned and she can't give birth to your child. Who knows when the poison will be neutralized. But An' an can't wait any longer. The doctor said that An 'an's blood levels have been rising and An' an needs the umbilical cord blood. For An 'an's sake, you have to have a child with another woman."
Huo Yanmei begged. She was a mother and she couldn't bear the thought of her own daughter living under the threat of death.
Gu Mohan brought the cigarette to his lips and took a puff. He let out a low laugh. "You also know that Mo 'er has been poisoned and she might not recover. You only care about your own daughter. In your heart, Mo' er's life is as worthless as grass. You don't have the slightest bit of pity for her and you're even forcing her. Don't think that I don't know. Last night when I was in the police station, Old Master also called her. She's already in such a state, why are you still bullying her?
"Before I appeared, she liked to cry when she was bullied. Now that I'm here, she's still crying when she's being bullied. You, or the old man, all of you just want me to work for you. Only she, she's willing to give up her life for me."
"Mom, this is the last time I'll call you Mom. Don't force me. For the past 30 years, the only thing I've wanted is her. She's my life. If she's ruined, I'll be ruined too. If I'm ruined, none of you can escape."
After speaking, Gu Mohan hung up the phone.
…
Half an hour later.
In the guest room next door, Tang Mo 'er lay on the soft bed. She was covered with a silk blanket and only her head could be seen.
She had already fallen asleep on her side. Her delicate body was curled up into a small ball under the blanket, and there were two band-aids on her fair forehead. Her face was very fair, but her complexion was very pale, and one could vaguely see the tiny blood vessels under her suet skin.
She slept very peacefully, and the exhaustion of her body allowed her to enter dreamland.
Gu Mohan sat by the side of the bed, his large hand holding onto her soft little hand. Her little hand was covered with medicine, but it was still full of scars.
He furrowed his brows and kissed her palm gently.
…
The next day.
In the dining room, Gu Mohan brought Tang Mo 'er to have breakfast. Tang Mo' er looked at the delicious desserts on the table and smiled. "Today's breakfast is so sumptuous."
Auntie Wu was stunned. She was overjoyed. "Madam, you can see now?"
Tang Mo 'er's lustrous eyes lit up and she nodded her head. "That's right."
Auntie Wu was elated. She placed a glass of warm milk beside Tang Mo 'er's hand as usual. "Young Madam, have some milk."
Tang Mo 'er lifted her head and looked at Auntie Wu, her eyes filled with confusion. "But, who are you? Are you an auntie hired by the family?"
"This …" Auntie Wu looked at Gu Mohan. What was wrong with Young Madam? She could see now, but she had lost her memory?
Gu Mohan's hand that was peeling an egg froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. He placed the peeled egg into Tang Mo 'er's bowl and said gently, "This is Auntie Wu, the new auntie hired by the family."
"Hello, Auntie Wu."
Auntie Wu looked at Tang Mo 'er with sympathy and pity. Young Madam's condition had worsened over the past few days.
Young Madam was starting to lose her memory.
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Auntie Wu walked over to open the door. It was … Tang Chenyi.
"May I know who you are?" Auntie Wu asked politely.
"Auntie Wu, let him in," Gu Mohan said in a low voice.
Auntie Wu opened the door and Tang Chenyi walked in.
Tang Mo 'er's lustrous eyes landed on Tang Chenyi, then she turned her head to look at Gu Mohan. "Mr Gu, who is he?"
Gu Mohan looked at the woman's delicate face. He knew that she had forgotten everyone after waking up.
She had forgotten the entire world.
No, she still remembered someone.
It was him, Mr Gu.
Gu Mohan's heart ached. He stretched out his large palm and ruffled Tang Mo 'er's silky black hair. "He's Tang Chenyi, your younger brother."
"Hello, younger brother." Tang Mo 'er smiled at Tang Chenyi.
Tang Chenyi looked at Tang Mo 'er and handed something in his hand over. It was a household register.
He was here to give her the household register.
Gu Mohan stretched out his large hand to accept the household register. "Chenyi, thank you."
Tang Chenyi looked at Tang Mo 'er.
"Your sister is fine, she will recover."
Tang Chenyi's fringe covered his almond-shaped eyes. He glanced at Tang Mo 'er and turned around to leave. The handsome and quiet young man's figure quickly disappeared before their eyes.
"Mo 'er, today is also a good day. After breakfast, let's go and get our marriage certificate."
…
Outside the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped. Gu Mohan opened the door of the passenger seat and Tang Mo 'er alighted.
Her lustrous eyes lifted slightly and landed on the words' Civil Affairs Bureau '. Once she entered this place, she would be the real Mrs Gu.
Her delicate hand was wrapped in the man's large palm. "Mo 'er, let's go."
Gu Mohan held Tang Mo 'er's hand and walked up the stairs.
His shiny leather shoes stepped on the first step of the stairs and he quietly retracted his hand. He heard a woman's gentle voice. "Mr Gu, I'm sorry, I can't get our marriage certificate."
Gu Mohan glanced back. He was standing on the stairs and it was easy for him to look down at her from such a height. Tang Mo 'er was wearing a pink coat today and her silky black hair was draped over her shoulders. Her delicate features were delicate and the band-aid on her forehead could be vaguely seen through her sparse fringe. She was as pure as water and pitiful as water.
Tang Mo 'er lowered her luscious lashes and tore the page that was related to her in the household register.
"Mo 'er, I know that my grandfather gave you a call. Trust me, hm?"
At this moment, the golden rays of the sun shone on Tang Mo 'er's body and it was warm. She raised her head and looked at the man. "Mr Gu, you should know that I don't have much time left. I can finally see today, but this world … is so unfamiliar. I don't seem to know anyone.
Mr Gu, I'm not afraid of your grandfather. I believe in you too. You have the power to go against your grandfather. You can protect the people you want to protect. It's just that I want to leave the identity of Mrs Gu to you. "
