Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Was his fate sealed all because of that one hug?
Old Master Lu ntioned much later that Lu Qi’er would beco his wife when he grew up. At that ti, he blushed a deep red from embarrassnt and ran into his room imdiately.
He had entered such a competitive workforce at the age of 12, yet it was her first ti seeing his embarrassed expression.
Even though Tang Mo’er and Lu Qi’er’s identities had been swapped, he still fell in love with Tang Mo’er at first sight.
Was this what you called fate?
...
Gu Mohan had a long dream.
He dreamt that he was back to being 10 years old. That day, he had co down with a fever and was taken to the hospital. When he woke up, the bed was empty and his parents were not around. As always. In fact, he had already adapted himself to such a cold, lonely life.
It was okay.
He was okay.
But he was thirsty. He wanted to grab a drink, however, there was no one there to help him. Struggling to get up, he grasped around at the bedside table to pour so water for himself.
However, there was no hot water in the ward.
He went out.
As he passed by the newborn nursery, he was drawn in the the soft cries of a baby. When he looked over, he saw a delicate little girl in her crib.
Eh?
It was said that newborns were ugly. However, this baby girl was an exception. She was adorable, with flawless skin and her features were delicate and simply gorgeous.
She was beautiful.
Perhaps, she heard that soone had co over and stopped crying, casting her gaze onto him.
It was indescribable, but that baby girl had a pair of big, beautiful eyes. Her eyes twinkled like stars and after wailing and getting the attention she wanted, she giggled rrily and gave him a radiant smile.
Although her teeth had not grown out yet, she had such a sweet smile. She had a sweet milky scent.
His birth was not welcod as he was born into a broken family. He had grown up in violent conditions and gradually beca cold-hearted over the course of ti. At this mont, when he felt horrible and thirsty, the girl’s smile was like a beam of sunlight shining onto his heart.
Her giggles were like the sound of spring flowers blossoming and he stretched out his long fingers to tap the baby’s fingers. She giggled and shoved his pinky into her little palms tightly, not letting him go.
There was a popular slang to describe her behavior after many years — a tease.
The young baby girl had teased Gu Mohan and he was dood from that mont on.
It was only later that he found out that she was the eldest daughter of the Lu family, Lu Qi’er.
Old Master Lu had ntioned later on that he would make Lu Qi’er his wife when they grew up. At that ti, he had blushed and hid himself in the room.
On that particular day, he was sure that she would be his little bride.
However, Lu Qi’er was being sent to Karghalik not long after.
The Capital and Karghalik were extrely far away from each other. He had already entered the Gu Corporation and began on his own career. A man would only be worthy to love when he was rich and powerful enough.
He would be successful when he t her again. He would make sure of it.
When he was 18 years old, the Gu family held a coming-of-age ceremony for him. On that night, he drove from the Capital to Karghalik to see Lu Qi’er.
Finally he could see his little bride.
It had been a long ti since he had seen her.
At that ti, Lu Qi’er and Lin Ruoxi were getting off their private vehicle. Lu Qi’er carried a Louis Vuitton bag while Lin Ruoxi was taking photos of her. The woman in question carried a rather sensual vibe and was different to how he had imagined.
Glancing at her through the car windows, he did not get off the car. A heavy feeling of failure enveloped him. Finding it ridiculous, he shook his head and laughed at himself, before driving back to the Capital.
Nine years later, he t Tang Mo’er when he was 27 years old.
From the mont she went into his arms, his heart felt comforted. When had he felt this feeling before?The scent on her was extrely familiar, so familiar he was taken aback. It was as though he had known her for an extrely long ti and had been waiting for her for all these years.
All this ti, he had been walking down this lonely path, waiting for soone.
Gu Mohan opened his eyes, shutting out the darkness.
