Chapter 431 - Singing Her to Sleep
“Everyone has to make choices in his or her life. Since Mohan chose you, I’ll only let him have you and nothing else,” said Old Master Gu.
Tang Mo’er hugged her knees tightly in a child-like stance and bit her lower lip to prevent herself from crying. However, her efforts proved futile as large crystal tears rolled down her cheek.
Why was everyone still pushing her towards a corner when she was already nearing death?
“Old Master, give me one month. All I need is one month. Don’t touch him, his mother, sister and others for a month.”
“Why?”
“Because, “Tang Mo’er quirked her pale lips. She was laughing initially, however soon enough teardrops started rolling down her cheeks. “I’ll be dead in a month’s time.”
Old Master Gu suddenly became silent.
“Mm, just close your eyes and sleep well. I promise that you’ll see me when you open your eyes in the morning.”
She believed him.
She believed that even if Old Master Gu did not let him go, he would find his way out.
His life would be good in the future.
Her eyelashes fluttered and she closed her eyes. She asked. “Mr Gu, will you sing for me?”
“Hm?” The man raised his eyebrows in questioning.
“Sing me to sleep. When I was younger, my kindergarten friends had their mothers sing them to sleep, but I never did. Back then, I thought to myself that when I grew up in the future, I wanted to find a boyfriend who could sing me to sleep,” said Tang Mo’er as her eyes lit up.
Gu Mohan stayed silent for a few seconds before he murmured, “What song do you want to hear?”
Tang Mo’er thought for a while.
“Mom is the best in the world.”
“…”
Mr Gu’s face turned gloomy. Beauty Tang had finally found this boyfriend, but he wanted her to sing ‘Mom is the best in the world’?
She must be yearning for motherly love.
Those who lacked motherly love would always be a child who never grew up.
” Mom is the best in the world, children are always cherished by moms. In mom’s arms it’s the best thing of all…”
His deep voice was able to bring out the true meaning of the song. Tang Mo’er swore this was the best rendition of the song she had ever heard.
When she was in university, many girls said they would find a boyfriend like that who would dote on them like a daughter. However, Tang Mo’er had never thought of it this way as she felt that it was impractical.
However, the moment Mr Gu had sang to her, she felt as if she was his child.
Goodnight Mr Gu.
With tears coming slowly out of her eyes, Tang Mo’er fell asleep.
…
The next morning.
Tang Mo’er dreamt that she was being carried and hugged in her dream, as if she had been placed on the big, soft bed. She slowly opened her eyes.
A gentle kiss quickly landed on her eyes and the man’s deep voice could be heard. “My lady, is this what you call by being good? Falling asleep on the carpet?”
Mmm, Mr Gu is back.
Tang Mo’er immediately stretched out her small hands and caressed his face. Her soft fingertips brushed his eyebrows, handsome face, high nose bridge and his sexy thin lips. His facial features were heaven’s most perfect creations.
