“Mo’er, now that you’re suddenly involved in a stepfather-rapist-stepdaughter scandal, your haters are adding fuel to the fire. All these years, Han Dong has always been recognized as the model husband in the eyes of the public. One hater said you deliberately seduced your stepfather. I can’t believe it, your mother has really screwed you over this time. Are you sure you’re even her own flesh and blood?”
In the apartment, a dim light shone, causing the fine hairs on Tang Mo’er’s skin to glow. With the cell phone in her hands, her entire body was stiff and cold.
She fumbled at the corner of her lips and joked, “I’d much rather I was picked up from the trash.”
Qi Xi paused for a moment. “Mo’er, sorry.”
“It’s alright. Help me check on that young model, Meng Meng.”
“Meng Meng?”
“The young model, Meng Meng, is Han Dong’s current sweetheart. After all these years, she’s definitely gained some benefits from Han Dong. Now that Han Dong has met his downfall, she must be panicking. Go find her and offer her some benefits. We’ll need to make her expose Han Dong’s true self behind his perfect husband facade.”
“Mo’er, what do you mean?”
Tang Mo’er smirked coldly, “Prepare for it. I’m going to have a fall out with my mother.”
After she hung up, she wore her pink slippers and went back to her room for a shower. Taking off her clothes, she adjusted the temperature and immersed herself in a hot shower.
After her body had warmed back to her normal temperature, she turned off the water heater and walked out of her bedroom. A tall figure was standing in the kitchen, it was Gu Mohan.
What was he doing in the kitchen?
Tang Mo’er approached the kitchen door and was astonished to find Gu Mohan cooking noodles. It was obvious it was his first try as his actions were stilted and somewhat hesitant.
Having such a wealthy and influential man cook for her caused a warm feeling to blossom through her body and down to each limb. It felt warm and fuzzy and… wonderful. She leaned against the door and watched him busy himself.
At this moment, the man’s narrow gaze fell on her body. “You’re really planning on standing there to watch and not help me at all?”
“If you can’t even cook noodles, then why bother trying to be particularly attentive to me?”
“I’m just scared you’ll feel like you’re suffering now that you’re dating me and will abandon me halfway in a fit of anger.”
Tang Mo’er walked over, stretched her arms out and hugged his powerful waist. She placed her head onto his back slowly. “When Huo Beichen bullied me, I felt like I was suffering. I really wanted to just dump you as I couldn’t take it anymore. But… I also realized I really couldn’t bear to do it. You’re so handsome, wealthy and well-respected, I won’t give you up so easily to Lu Qi’er.”
Gu Mohan raised his eyebrow and kissed her silky hair. “So you’re not gonna break up with me anymore?”
“Mm, I think a lot of people are waiting for us to break up, so that they can mock me after. How can I let them get their way so easily?”
Gu Mohan gave her a faint smile. As he stretched out his big palms and dragged her to the front, his powerful arms pulled her into his embrace. Whenever he saw her, he couldn’t help but want to hug her so tightly that she would fuse into his blood and bones.
That night, Grandma had asked him earnestlyー
—- Mr Gu, do you like Mo’er?
—- She’s very cheerful and strong. I like how her eyes are still brimming with happiness, even when she’s wronged, even when she’s crying inside.
“I’ve checked. Huo Beichen called Zhou Li into the room and had sex with her twice.”
Tang Mo’er snarled in response, “Huo Beichen is sick in the head. He had sex with another woman, even though I was right next to him?”
Thinking about that scene, Tang Mo’er was so disgusted she felt like taking a shower again.
Gu Mohan stirred the noodles in the pot with the chopsticks in one hand. His voice was indifferent and calm. “My punishment for Huo Beichen is enough for him to deal with. Even if he doesn’t end up handicapped, he would end up injured in any case.”
