The ringtone sounded once before the call connected. Huo Yanmei’s voice was heard. “Hello, Mohan…”

The corner of his lips rose into a sardonic arch, raising his voice slightly. “Come over and remove the woman you arranged. Don’t dirty my place.”

Huo Yanmei gasped. “Mohan, Mom is also helpless in this situation. Tang Mo’er has contracted a poison and she can’t give birth to your child. Who knows how long she needs to fully recover. An’an can’t wait any longer. The doctor told me that An’an’s leukemia index has risen and she needs the cord blood. Won’t you just give birth to a child with another woman? This is all for An’an’s sake. Can you really bear to do nothing while you watch your sister die? She is your sister!”

Huo Yanmei pleaded, she was a mother and she simply couldn’t watch while her daughter’s life was threatened.

Gu Mohan brought the cigarette to his mouth and took another puff out of it. He then snorted. “You’re also aware that Mo’er has been poisoned, there’s a chance that she’ll never recover. You’re only concerned about your daughter and Mo’er’s life isn’t worth anything in your eyes. Have you ever pitied her? You’ve even threatened and forced her, don’t think that I’m unaware of your acts. I also know that Old Master gave her a phone call on the night of my arrest, she’s already in such a pitiful state, why are you all still bullying her even further? Is this any better than throwing rocks at someone who is already down?

“Back when I wasn’t a part of her life, she would also hide in a corner and cry after being bullied. Even after I appeared in her life, she would still hide and cry secretly after being bullied. No matter who it is, be it you or Old Master, your goal is to have me slog my life away for the Gu family. Only Mo’er, only she would give up her own life just for me.”

“Mother, this is my last time calling you that. Don’t force me. After living for thirty years, my only goal in life is to have her by my side. She is my life. If she’s ruined, I will follow her to my own destruction, and I will take you all down with me. You people won’t be able to escape.”

After speaking his mind, Gu Mohan hung up.

…

Half an hour later.

In the guest room, Tang Mo’er lay on the soft bed and her body was covered with a silk blanket. Only her head was revealed.

She lay on her side and had fallen asleep. Her delicate body was curled up into a fetal position under the blanket, her forehead wound was covered with two band-aids. Her beautiful face was all clean, it was just that her face was still pale and her tiny veins could be seen under her smooth, delicate skin.

She slept peacefully since she was depleted of her energy and she entered the bliss of her dreamland.

Gu Mohan sat by the bed, he held her tiny hand in his large palm. Though there was medicine applied on her hand, there was still visible lacerations on it.

He drew his brows together, kissing her palm lightly.

…

The next day.

In the dining room, Gu Mohan had brought Tang Mo’er over to have breakfast. When Tang Mo’er saw the spread of dimsum on the table, a smile hinted at the edge of her lips. “There’s a sumptuous spread for breakfast today.”

Auntie Wu was stunned. “Young Madam, you’ve regained your sight?”

Tang Mo’er’s clear eyes were filled with joy as she nodded. “Yes!”

Auntie Wu was thrilled, she placed the cup of warm milk beside Tang Mo’er’s hand as usual. “Young Madam, please have some milk.”

Tang Mo’er lifted her head and looked at Auntie Wu doubtfully. “But who are you, a helper we hired?”

“This…” Auntie Wu looked at Gu Mohan, what happened to Young Madam? She had regained her vision but lost her memory?

Gu Mohan paused for a moment while he was peeling the boiled egg but he quickly recovered to his usual self. He placed the peeled egg in Tang Mo’er’s bowl and said gently, “This is Auntie Wu, she’s the new helper we’ve hired.”

“Hello, Auntie Wu. It’s lovely to meet you.”

Auntie Wu looked at Tang Mo’er with pity and she felt empathetic towards her. Young Madam’s condition had gotten worse over the past few days.

To think Young Madam had also started to lose her memory.

“Dingdong”, the doorbell rang. Auntie Wu went over to open the front door and someone stood outside. It was… Tang Chenyi.

“Hello, may I know who you are?” Auntie Wu asked politely.

“Auntie Wu, let him in,” Gu Mohan said.

Auntie Wu opened the front door and Tang Chenyi entered the apartment.

Tang Mo’er’s clear and bright eyes were on Tang Mo’er, she then turned her head around and asked Gu Mohan, “Mr Gu, who is he?”

Gu Mohan looked at her charming face, realizing that she had forgotten about everyone after one night.

She forgot about the entire world.

No, she still remembered someone.

It was him, Mr Gu.

Gu Mohan felt a twinge in his chest, his heart ached and he stretched out his large palm, ruffling her hair tenderly. “His name is Tang Chenyi, he is your younger brother.”

“Younger brother, hello.” Tang Mo’er smiled at Tang Chenyi.

Tang Chenyi looked at Tang Mo’er, handing over something in his hands. It was a household register.

He handed the household register over to Tang Mo’er. Instead, Gu Mohan stretched out his large palm and received the household register. “Chenyi, thank you.”

Tang Chenyi fixed Tang Mo’er with his unwavering gaze.

“There’s nothing much going on with your sister, she’ll get better really soon.”

Tang Chenyi’s loose fringe had slightly covered his eyes, he glanced at Tang Mo’er before leaving. His reticent figure disappeared in no time at all.

“Mo’er, today is a good day. Let’s have our breakfast before registering our marriage.”

…

Outside the City Hall.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom had stopped, Gu Mohan opened the passenger’s seat door and Tang Mo’er alighted from the car.

Her clear and bright eyes were lifted, they landed on the ‘City Hall’ sign. As long as she entered the place, she would become the rightful Mrs Gu.

Her delicate hand was held in his large palm. “Mo’er, let’s go inside.”

Gu Mohan held Tang Mo’er’s hand while they went up the stairs.

His glistening leather shoes went up the first step when the tiny hand in his large palm was retracted. A gentle voice resounded in his ears. “Mr Gu, I’m sorry, I can’t register my marriage with you.”

Gu Mohan turned back, he stood on the stairs and combined with his height, he was towering over her. Tang Mo’er wore a pink coat and her silky long hair was draped over her shoulders. Her facial features were flawless and the band-aid on her forehead could be seen through her fringe. She looked innocent and pitiful at the same time.

Tang Mo’er lowered her eyes, she tore the page containing her information from the household register.

“Mo’er, I’m aware that my grandfather gave you a phone call. Trust me, hmm?”

The rays of sun shone on Tang Mo’er’s body and she lifted her head to look at him. “Mr Gu, you must know that I don’t have much time left. I’ve finally regained my vision today, but the world… seems so unfamiliar to me. I don’t seem to recognize anyone at all.

“Mr Gu, I’m not afraid of your grandfather and I do have faith in you. You have the capabilities to resist your grandfather, you’re able to protect the people you want to protect. But I want to leave the position of Mrs Gu behind for you.”

“This way, you won’t be considered a divorcee when you meet a girl you want to spend the rest of your life with. You wouldn’t be degraded or judged.”
