Chapter 289 - You Were Having Dinner with Jun Chulin, How About Now, Do You Have Anything for Me to Eat?
As Gu Mohan piggybacked Tang Mo’er with steady footsteps, he listened to her helpless sobbing and softly placated her, “Mo’er, I won’t get married to Lu Qi’er. I’ll get the antidote from her, I promise.”
Did he have a plan?
Tang Mo’er knew that if she made the choice to stay with him, she would place all the stress and burden on him. To be together, it would be an uphill battle for them.
But she didn’t want to let go of him anymore.
“Mo’er, I’ll be honest with you. When I got engaged to Lu Qi’er, yes, it’s true that I wanted to keep if from you. Growing up, I’ve always learned to deal with matters like this. My father wasn’t home most of the time, my mother is a… discontented woman. My grandfather only doted on me if I met his expectations. After all of these, I’ve become accustomed to being alone. This is how it always was. There was never anyone around to talk to, never anyone to share my burdens with and to lean on.
“You’re my woman and so I would like to protect you to the best of my abilities. This is why I hid the engagement plans from you. I didn’t want to worry you. I promise I’ll give you all my respect and be truthful to you in the future. Mo’er, it’s all my fault. I’m sorry.”
This was the first time ever Tang Mo’er had heard him mention about his family’s situation. Hearing his apology instantly made her tear up again.
Looking into her eyes, Gu Mohan pushed her shoulder against the chair with three slender fingers. “You were only just having dinner with Jun Chulin. Don’t you have anything for me to eat?”
What did he want to eat?
Gu Mohan leaned forward and kissed her on the lips, pushing his long tongue inside her sweet mouth, delving in and making sure her tongue was twisted in his.
