For the past 30 years, he had lived an exhausting life that lacked color and love. All she wanted to do was to dote on him, she wanted to make him feel happy and experience joy.
Also, he had slogged his life away and put in a lot of hard work to get the Gu family to where they were today. She didn’t want him to give up. A man’s life would not only comprise of love, it was also the result of his career and ambition.
If she were to give him a few years, she was certain that he would eventually achieve his pinnacle of success.
However, what about their breakup?
She didn’t want to break up with him.
She really didn’t want to.
If she were to give him up, she wouldn’t be able to find a man who loved her as much as he did for the rest of her life.
She was afraid of losing him.
Tang Mo’er slid down the bed without making a sound, she huddled up and hugged her knees with her slender arms, burying her tear-filled face in it and crying silently.
…
The next morning.
Gu Mohan slowly opened his eyes. “Mo’er, Mo’er…”
He called Tang Mo’er’s name, but didn’t receive any response. The room was completely silent, Tang Mo’er wasn’t there.
Gu Mohan got up and picked out a gray shirt and while he put it on, his shoulder blade was stretched open and the wounds on his back added a wild sexiness.
He put on the gray shirt and buttoned it up, stretching his long legs to walk out of the room to search for Tang Mo’er.
But even after searching all over, he still couldn’t find Tang Mo’er.
Where was she?
Gu Mohan instantly rushed outside Fu Qinglun’s room and pressed on the doorbell urgently.
Very quickly, the room door was opened and Lin Shiyu looked at Gu Mohan, asking, “President Gu, you’re looking for me?”
“Have you seen Tang Mo’er?”
“Mo’er? Wasn’t she with you all along?”
Gu Mohan’s heart sank and he quickly turned around and left.
What had happened? Lin Shiyu instantly followed behind Gu Mohan. “President Gu, what happened to Mo’er, is Mo’er missing?”
Gu Mohan didn’t seem to hear her question. He returned to his room, since Tang Mo’er had once slept behind the curtains, he walked in front of the window and took a deep breath before pulling open the curtain.
Nothing.
The morning rays shone right into Gu Mohan’s narrow eyes, and he found it disturbing.
Tang Mo’er had disappeared.
There were multiple voices in his ears, Tang Mo’er had really gone missing.
He took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket and dialed Tang Mo’er’s number.
The ringtone sounded and the phone call was picked up.
She picked up the phone call.
“Hello, Mo’er, where are you now? Didn’t I warn you to not run around?”
“Gu Mohan,” Tang Mo’er’s calm voice was on the other end, “Let’s break up.”
Gu Mohan placed one hand on his waist and frowned, concealing his anger and asking, “I’ll give you a chance to explain yourself, what is the reason behind this?”
“Gu Mohan, when your grandfather hit you last night, I was there too. Your grandfather gave you two options, you could only pick one, either your career or your woman.”
Gu Mohan had a poker face on. “Do you want to hear my answer?”
Between his career and woman, how could he bear to make a choice?
Tang Mo’er admitted that she was curious, she wanted to know his answer. However, she pressed on. “Gu Mohan, whatever choice you made isn’t important. I’m just exhausted, it’s tiring to be in a relationship with you. Your father tried to sponsor me and your mother even hit me. Now, even your grandfather is threatening me, I’m tired. I’m just so tired of all this. Let’s just break up.”
She hung up the phone call immediately after speaking.
Gu Mohan dialed her number again but he heard an automated message instead, ‘Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable.’
