Pah! The crisp sound of the slap echoed throughout the corridor.
Tang Mo’er was caught off-guard by the slap and toppled backwards, knocking into the wall before fell onto the ground.
Half of her beautiful face was turning red, with a hand print on her swollen face.
The Gu Family butler scolded her angrily, “Who do you think you are? You’re just an actress, how dare you speak with the Old Master like that? You don’t deserve to call our Little Master by his name. I’ll bet you’re just using little master to get close to our Young Master because you want to become the young madam of the Gu Family!
Tang Mo’er could feel her face burning. Her full, red lips curved into a cold smile, as she raised her head to look at the butler. “Even actresses earn a living with their talent. Who are you to laugh at me, you savage, biting dog.”
The butler’s expression turned ugly as he was called a dog. “You!”
Bai Feifei opened her mouth and remarked, “Tang Mo’er, you dare run your mouth here after refusing to admit that you harmed Little Master Gu?
She hadn’t even finished with her sentence before Tang Mo’er interrupted her. “Keep your mouth shut! Why didn’t you dare to say a single word when you were being scolded by this butler just now, actress Bai Feifei!”
Bai Feifei was speechless
Bai Feifei’s expression was that of extreme embarrassment. She was indeed an actress too, and had also been scolded by the butler just now.
They had both been forcefully humbled. Old Master Gu waved his hand and said, “Miss Tang, let’s get back to the topic at hand. You were the one who hurt Little Yelin. Regardless of whether you are in the wrong, I will ask my people to send you to the police station right now for them to investigate you.”
Old Master Gu wanted to throw Tang Mo’er over to the police.
Tang Mo’er took a look at Little Munchkin on the bed. “Even if I were to be investigated, I will not leave now. I want to stay and take care of Niuniu.”
“Miss Tang, Are you asking my bodyguards to take action since you’re refusing to leave?” Old Master Gu said as he looked at the two bodyguards.
The two bodyguards started approaching Tang Mo’er quickly.
Woof!
Woof woof woof!
At this instance, a dog’s barking could be heard. Bluse, which was half a person’s height, ran in from the outside, and pounced on one of the black-clad bodyguards.
The black-clad bodyguard screamed, “Where did this dog come from, don’t bite me!”
Bluse released him and ran over to Tang Mo’er, glaring at Old Master Gu and Bai Feifei as though it was protecting Tang Mo’er.
It was Bluse!
This was Gu Mohan’s dog. It had bitten her clothes twice, but was clearly protecting her right now. Her heart warmed.
She reached out with her pale hands and stroked Bluse’s golden fur.
Bluse turned its head to look at Tang Mo’er, and barked.
It was being really obedient.
Bai Feifei was about to throw up blood. It was fine that both Gu Mohan and the little master liked Tang Mo’er, but who would’ve thought that Bluse would protect Tang Mo’er as though she was its master?
Auntie Su ran in at this moment. “What happened? Old Master, what brings you here?”
Bai Feifei turned to look at Old Master Gu quickly. “Old Master, what should we do now? Tang Mo’er has hurt little Yelin. Are you going to let things go just like this?”
Old Master Gu’s eyes were dark. “Butler, call the police over to take her away.”
“Yes, Old Master,” the butler said as he took out his phone to call the station.
A magnetic voice resounded in their ears. “What are you two doing here?”
Tang Mo’er lifted her eyes as a tall and handsome figure entered her line of sight. It was Gu Mohan.
Gu Mohan was in a navy shirt and black trousers, his custom-made shirt wrinkled. Despite that, the clothes framed him well, and with the air of eliteness he was exuding, the wrinkles only served to increase his charisma.
He looked as though he had rushed there, his eyes fierce and dark.
Woof!
Woof woof woof!
Bluse barked when it saw its owner.
Gu Mohan’s eyes landed on Tang Mo’er’s swollen cheek and the red handprint on her face. When she felt his gaze on her, Tang Mo’er averted her eyes.
Huge strides brought Gu Mohan into the room.
Bai Feifei and the two bodyguards made way for him as he passed by. His strong presence struck the entire room, instilling fear in the people within it.
Gu Mohan walked straight over to Tang Mo’er, lifting his hand to caress the cheek that was slapped.
Tang Mo’er moved her head to avoid him.
But he grabbed her face in his large palms and forced her to turn over. His fingers pressed on the wound on her face, and her beautiful brows knit together as she hissed in pain
“Does it hurt? Don’t move about if it hurts!”
He murmured this sentence in a deep voice, then reached out with his rough thumb to stroke the red hand print.
Her skin was so delicate that the handprint on her face looked very shocking. Gu Mohan knitted his sharp brows, and scolded her softly. “Tang Mo’er, are you a pig? I take my eyes off you, and you get bullied by other people?”
Being slapped, then chastised, Tang Mo’er raised her eyes and glared at him. “You’re the pig. Your whole family are pigs!”
“Apart from Niuniu and me, you can scold them however you like.”
Everyone was speechless.
Bai Feifei snuck a look at Old Master Gu beside her. Grandpa, your grandson just encouraged your granddaughter-in-law to call you a pig!
How daring!
Bai Feifei buried her nails in her palm in indignant jealousy. Why did she feel as though Gu Mohan was keeping Tang Mo’er in his embrace to care for and love her?
He was still caressing her face. Tang Mo’er’s delicate skin turned red slowly as she pushed Gu Mohan away.
“Who hit you?” he asked.
The butler standing at the side paled, and felt a little guilty.
Tang Mo’er raised her head to look at the butler.
Gu Mohan turned around, his cold gaze landing on the butler. His thin lips curved into a shallow smile and he chuckled. “Ah, so it was you. Who gave you the guts to touch my woman?”
The butler trembled with fear, and he didn’t dare meet Gu Mohan’s’ gaze. “Young….Young Master, I… I…”
“Apologize to her!” Gu Mohan commanded in a deep voice.
The butler turned to look at Tang Mo’er quickly. “M-Miss Tang, I apologize.”
Gu Mohan took a look at Tang Mo’er. “Do you forgive him?”
Tang Mo’er shook her head, “I wouldn’t dare.”
“I’ll give you a chance to do this yourself. Slap yourself the exact way you hit her now.”
The butler’s legs gave way and he almost sank to the ground. He glanced at Old Master Gu secretly.
Old Master Gu opened his mouth and remarked, “Mohan…”
“Do it!”
Gu Mohan’s command had the force of a thunderbolt behind it.
With a resounding “pah”, the butler gave himself a slap.
“Keep going on and don’t stop.”
A series of “pah” sounded as the butler slapped himself continuously, afraid to stop.
As Tang Mo’er gazed at the man standing in front of her, protecting her this way, it felt as though a small stone had been thrown into her calm heart, creating ripples that spread out again and again.
At this moment, the entire atmosphere in the hospital room became tense and anxious.
