Tang Mo 'er stretched her hand out to take it and flipped to the first page. There were all sorts of designs written on it.
Her mother's handwriting was elegant and beautiful, and there was a sense of spirituality in the designs.
This was her mother's design.
Tang Mo 'er ran her fingers over her mother's design. This was the first time she felt so close to her mother.
She could already smell her mother's scent. It was sweet and warm.
Tang Mo 'er's eyes reddened.
A few seconds later, she lifted her eyes and looked at Lu Jinwen. "What they said … is it true?"
Lu Jinwen looked at Tang Mo 'er's beautiful face and didn't answer her. He just pursed his thin lips.
Tang Mo 'er had already gotten her answer. It was true.
Her mother had been crazy for two whole years. Not only did he protect Lin Xuanyin, the murderer, he even gave her mother a slap.
She turned around and left.
"Mo 'er, where are you going? It's very late now, I'll get a car to send you," Lu Jinwen said.
Tang Mo 'er didn't even turn around. She curved her pretty lips into a sarcastic smile. "There's no need for that. How would I dare to trouble Mr Lu? I'm not even close to Mr Lu!"
Lu Jinwen looked at her pretty pretty back view and his handsome handsome brows were tightly knitted.
Tang Mo 'er had only taken two steps when she stopped in her tracks. She saw a handsome figure in front of her.
Gu Mohan.
Gu Mohan was dressed in a custom-made white shirt with a black blazer on the outside. The blazer wrapped around his muscular body and his trousers were tailored like a knife. The dazzling lights from the party shone on his handsome shoulders and he stood on the lawn leisurely. His elegant and dignified face was a mess of good looks.
She didn't know when he had arrived. Perhaps he had already heard the entire conversation just now.
Tang Mo 'er clutched her mother's design draft tightly. Her bright eyes were watery as she looked at him. The sadness and indignation in her heart was overwhelming.
She didn't know why, but she really wanted to borrow his handsome shoulder to lean on. She really wanted him to stretch out his large palm to ruffle her silky hair and tell her, "Mo 'er, it's alright. Your mother is very strong. You have to be as strong as your mother. Everything will be fine."
Tang Mo 'er's luscious lashes were damp and she walked towards him, calling him in a gentle voice, "Mr Gu …"
"Mohan, why are you here?" At this moment, Jun Xiyan walked over from behind.
Gu Mohan turned his head and glanced at Jun Xiyan. Jun Xiyan walked over and held his arm.
Tang Mo 'er stopped in her tracks.
Gu Mohan lifted his handsome face and glanced at Tang Mo 'er. The girl had stopped. She clutched onto her mother's sketchbook tightly, as if it was the only thing she could hold on to. Her knuckles had turned white from the force of her grip.
She looked at Jun Xiyan with her watery eyes, then back at him. Her delicate nose and fair eyes became even redder.
Gu Mohan knew that she felt wronged and wanted to act coquettishly in front of him.
The way she looked at him now was so soft and watery. At this moment, he could feel that she was sincerely in love and relying on him.
Jun Xiyan held onto Gu Mohan's strong arm and shrunk her shoulders. "Mohan, the wind is so strong tonight. It's so cold."
Gu Mohan lifted his fingers and removed his blazer, draping it over Jun Xiyan's shoulders.
The man's body heat lingered on the blazer. It was so comfortable and warm, as if the cold had been dispelled in an instant.
No matter how cold the night was, with his blazer, he could protect her from the elements. Jun Xiyan blushed and looked at Gu Mohan sweetly. "Mohan, thank you. It's already late, let's go home."
"Okay." Gu Mohan turned around and left with Jun Xiyan.
Mr Gu had left.
Tang Mo 'er froze on the spot. She pouted her red lips and looked pitiful, just like a little girl who had been abandoned.
His handsome shoulders and broad arms could still shield any woman from the elements, but he no longer belonged to her.
Tang Mo 'er sniffled and carefully placed her mother's sketchbook into the compartment of her backpack. She also left.
This place didn't belong to her.
She felt like she was trespassing on someone else's private property.
After taking two steps, a maid in front of her bumped into Tang Mo 'er and even bumped into her backpack.
"Elder Miss, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose." The maid quickly apologized. She was trembling in fear and she almost knelt down in front of Tang Mo 'er.
Tang Mo 'er almost tripped and fell. She struggled to stand up. Looking at the maid, she shook her head. "It's okay."
She then left.
…
On the other side, the two maids who were chatting in private had run away. At this moment, an elegant white figure walked over. It was Lin Xuanyin.
"Madam." The two maids promptly greeted her respectfully.
Lin Xuanyin glanced at the two maids and the two maids nodded their heads.
Lin Xuanyin said, "You may leave."
"Yes, Madam."
The two maids walked away. They turned back to look at Lin Xuanyin and said softly, "Hey, why do you think Madam wanted us to tell Elder Miss what we just said?"
"Isn't it simple? Madam wanted to drive a wedge between Elder Miss and Sir."
"Why is Madam still so against Madam Xuanji and Elder Miss even though Sir dotes on Madam so much? I feel so sorry for Madam Xuanji."
One of the maids looked around and whispered in the other's ear, "What do you know? That's only a part of it. There's still another part."
"What do you mean?"
"Madam Xuanji went crazy for two whole years. Everyone said that Madam Xuanji should be sent to a mental hospital, but Sir raised her in a seascape mansion. Moreover, Sir didn't leave the mansion for two years and didn't even visit Madam Xuanyin. He only focused on taking care of Madam Xuanji."
"What?"
"It's said that when Madam Xuanji went crazy, Sir raised her like a daughter. He fed her, bathed her, told her stories. There was once, someone saw Sir crawling on the floor in the living room of the seascape mansion, letting Madam Xuanji ride on his back."
"What are you talking about?" The other maid gasped in shock …
Not too far away, Lin Xuanyin heard all of this. She clenched her fists tightly by her sides and her elegant face showed signs of cracking.
That's right, who would have thought that the most powerful man in the Capital, the most heartless and cold-blooded Emperor, would actually lower his powerful body and allow Lin Xuanji to ride on his back?
All her memories rewound many years ago. She knew that she had caused the death of the child in Xuanji's womb. He would finally resent her.
