He was the only antidote to her suffering.
Gu Mohan was the only one who could bring her the greatest pleasure and help her forget all the pain burning through her body. Only he was capable of making her lie in his arms as though she had no other care in the world.
She knew that she had no hope. It was inevitable. Whatever poison she had contracted, it could not compare to something even more lethal. That poison was called Gu Mohan.
“Mr Gu, Mr Gu…” Tang Mo’er shut her eyes and cried, making helpless yet desperate calls for Gu Mohan.
Huo Beichen heard her call for ‘Mr Gu’ non stop and was stunned as large teardrops fell from her eyes. When he stretched over slowly to wipe them away with his fingertips, they were warm.
They were really warm.
Huo Beichen felt that his fingers were almost scalded. Was this… true love?
“Sit still, I’ll take you to the doctor.” Huo Beichen slammed his foot on the accelerator and the sportscar shot forward.
…
In the villa.
Huo Beichen kicked the doctor out of frustration, “How much longer do you need to figure things out? Are you a doctor or not?! What is wrong with her?”
The doctor fell forward, almost tripping, “Young… Young Master Huo, this lady has been poisoned.”
“What? What do you mean poisoned? What poison?”
“This… I don’t know yet, but I’ve given her a tranquilizing shot, it should take effect and last for some time.”
Huo Beichen had a sinister look on his face, he wanted to kick the doctor again.
But the woman moved around while she lay on the bed, her eyebrows furrowed as she moved her red lips, wanting to utter something.
Huo Beichen speedily put down everything and walked beside the bed. When he knelt on one knee and bent down to listen to her words, he could only hear her repeating someone’s name over again with her husky voice. “Mr Gu, don’t leave me… Mr Gu, I miss you…”
She was calling for his second brother again.
As he leaned closely beside her, Tang Mo’er’s tiny face was right in front of him. He could smell the faint maidenly scent all around her and her eyelashes were beautiful and delicate, fluttering like the wings of a butterfly in the air.
Huo Beichen found himself mesmerized and stretched his hand out to brush against her long eyelashes with his fingertips.
All of a sudden, Tang Mo’er grabbed his hand and brushed her tiny face against it, like a little kitten. “Mr Gu, you’re finally here…”
Huo Beichen swallowed and his Adam’s apple bobbed prominently in his throat. Unwittingly, he felt something stir in his lower abdomen. Damn it, he was aroused.
He withdrew his hand and immediately stood up from the bed.
Due to his sudden movement, he almost tripped over his own feet.
The doctors, nurses and even the maids present in the room had never seen Young Master Huo behave so foolishly before and their gazes locked on him in surprise.
Throwing them a stony glare, Huo Beichen clenched his fists and sneered, “What are you looking at? If you don’t look away now I’ll gouge out your eyeballs!”
“…”
Since Huo Beichen had stepped away, Tang Mo’er lost the warm presence and once again felt the pain acting up. The poison in the love pea was too strong and the tranquilizer didn’t have much of an effect.
Huo Beichen looked at her miserable expression and quickly left the room.
Along the corridor, Huo Beichen took out his cell phone and dialed Gu Mohan’s phone number. “Hello, Second Brother, you’d better make your way here. Whatever poison is in Beauty Tang is acting up and she can’t stop calling your name…”
At that time, Gu Mohan stood on the balcony on the second floor, with one hand in his trouser pocket. As soon as he heard Huo Beichen say ‘she can’t stop calling your name’, he gripped his cell phone so tightly his joints were white and strained against his flesh.
His handsome face was overcome with a dark gloominess, restraint and also extreme pain.
He couldn’t visit her yet.
Lu Qi’er sauntered over from behind. “Brother Mohan, you’re on the phone?”
Gu Mohan turned around and his tall figure exuded a cold darkness that was hard to describe. A devilish smirk crossed his lips. “You can’t wait wait to have sex with me?”
