Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

The atmosphere became strangely stifling.

Tang Mo’er got up and stepped into the bathroom.

In the bathroom.

She stood under the shower head, taking a hot shower. There weren’t any love bites on her body, he really didn’t touch her.

But she felt a stickiness between her legs, it was so uncomfortable. This man was such a jerk, he totally deserved that slap.

She wondered if she would get pregnant like that?

Tang Mo’er placed her hands on her flat tummy, she was reminded of her baby again.

Baby, Mommy really misses you.

After she was done taking a shower, Tang Mo’er pushed the door open to step out of the bathroom. The imposing figure on the bed was already gone.

So, he had left, just like that.

Tang Mo’er walked over, throwing the torn underwear on the carpeted ground into the bin. She then opened the windows in order to ventilate the air, getting rid of the smell in the room.

She could no longer sleep on the bed since he had dirtied the sheets. She hadn’t been sexually active in a very long time, ever since the other time in the Capital.

Tang Mo’er found herself a throw and she lay on the couch, closing her eyes to prepare to sleep.

The next day, at night.

The cruise was approaching the shore and Tang Mo’er prepared to leave.

She was walking along the corridor when she spotted a few familiar figures in front. It was Gu Mohan, Jun Xiyan and also Huo Yanmei.

Huo Yanmei looked at Gu Mohan. “Mohan, I can promise to return to the Capital, I’ll head back today. But I want you to promise one thing in return, I want you to have a baby.”

Baby…

This word was linked with an unforgettable pain in Tang Mo’er’s heart. She stopped walking and watched them.

Gu Mohan wore a green V neck knit sweater with black trousers. His handsome face wasn’t visible with the dim lighting along the corridor but he seemed to be more cold than usual.

Baby…

Tang Mo’er placed her hand on her tummy. If it wasn’t for Lin Xuanyin’s abortion pills, her baby would already have been three months old.

“Mohan, how could a man with a status like yours, not have a child? You know that the Gu family needs a successor, you should try for a baby with Xiyan. Xiyan will definitely be a good mother.

“Mohan, I don’t care about your affairs with Tang Mo’er but she can no longer get pregnant. She can never give birth.”

Tang Mo’er can’t get pregnant…

She can never give birth…

Tang Mo’er’s mind was thrown into disarray, her pupils dilated with horror and all the color drained from her face.

What? She could never give birth?

How could that be?

How did things turn out like this?

She didn’t know why.

She still hadn’t figured out why.

She clutched her clothes till they were all wrinkled, feeling as though someone had stabbed her heart with a knife. She experienced a heart wrenching pain.

It was great torture for a woman to lose the ability to give birth.

She lifted her eyes, looking at Gu Mohan and Jun Xiyan. Jun Xiyan wore a long dress and looked every bit the personable wife. She looked at Gu Mohan with an endearing gaze. From the looks of it, as long as he nodded, she would agree too.

Xiyan would definitely be a good mother…

Ha.

Haha.

Tang Mo’er quickly covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes turned watery and she could no longer hold it in at all. Hot tears sprang from her eyes.

She didn’t dare to make a sound, her shoulders shuddering while she cried. She was laughing and crying at the same time. Wasn’t she a good mother?

Why wasn’t she given a chance?

Why was her baby taken away from her?

Gu Mohan didn’t say a word, he just walked away, with Jun Xiyan following behind him.

Only Huo Yanmei was left behind.

Tang Mo’er wiped her tears dry and walked in front, appearing in front of Huo Yanmei.

“Tang Mo’er, why are you here? Did you overhear our conversation earlier on?” Huo Yanmei looked at Tang Mo’er coldly.

Tang Mo’er’s eyes were still watery as she just cried but she was unexpectedly calm. “Were you speaking the truth? I really can’t get pregnant?”

Huo Yanmei sneered. “Mohan didn’t tell you?”

Tang Mo’er kept silent.

“You didn’t hear wrong. The miscarriage greatly affected your health and it’ll be hard for you to get pregnant in the future. Tang Mo’er, it’s impossible for Mohan to stay childless. He’ll have a child with Xiyan and even if it isn’t her, there will be other women around.”

Huo Yanmei then whipped out a pill, handing it over to Tang Mo’er. “This is for you.”

“What is this?”

“This is the most potent aphrodisiac available in the market. Make sure to have Mohan take this pill, he’ll sleep with Xiyan after taking it.”

Tang Mo’er was about to burst out in laughter and couldn’t stop herself. “Madam Gu, you really think that I’ll listen to your instructions? Aren’t you very capable? I believe that you’ll have a way to personally guide your son and daughter-in-law along into their bed.”

“You!” Huo Yanmei’s face turned into a fierce glower. She was also born into the prestigious Huo family, and could never tolerate Tang Mo’er’s blatant sarcasm. She felt utterly humiliated.

“Madam Gu, I’ll take my leave.” Tang Mo’er turned around to leave.

After taking two steps, she heard Huo Yanmei again. “Tang Mo’er, I believe Mohan didn’t tell you the truth about another matter.”

Tang Mo’er stopped walking, she turned around to glance at Huo Yanmei.

“The other matter would be… Lin Xuanyin wasn’t the only culprit behind your miscarriage. I was also involved.”

Tang Mo’er lowered her eyelashes heavily, looking at Huo Yanmei in shock. “Unbelievable. My baby is your biological grandchild, how could you even bear to do it?”

“There’s a line of women waiting to give birth to my grandchild, who do you think you are? Tang Mo’er, I hate you. As long as I’m alive, I’ll never allow you to enter the Gu family. I’m Mohan’s mother, even if I personally kill your baby, I’m still well and alive. Mohan even lied to you for my sake.”

Huo Yanmei was very satisfied with Tang Mo’er’s reaction and she revealed a victorious smile before continuing. “As long as you make sure that Mohan sleeps with Xiyan and they have a child, I can close one eye and allow Mohan to keep you as his mistress.”

Ah, so that was it. Tang Mo’er had figured everything out. If she were to choose which woman was the most blissful on Earth, it would definitely have to be Huo Yanmei.

She fell in love with her best friend’s husband and even stooped so low as to drug him to enter the Gu family. She even cheated on her husband because she felt lonely after marriage and gave birth to an illegitimate daughter, but she was still leading a good life. Even Old Master Gu had to tolerate her ways. Well, it was all because she had given birth to a son like Gu Mohan.

As long as Gu Mohan was alive, Huo Yanmei would never experience a day of hardship.

Tang Mo’er lifted her hand to tuck her hair behind her ears. Her voice was as cool and calm as a summer breeze, “Madam Gu, 21 years ago, you backstabbed my mother and switched me over to become the Tang family’s daughter, completely changing my fate. 21 years later, you’re still trying to harm me even after learning of my identity. You even killed my baby this time. I really have to settle this score, be it old or new, even if it’s 21 years old.”

Huo Yanmei’s heart sank, she glared at Tang Mo’er warily. “What are you planning to do to me?”

Tang Mo’er didn’t say a word, she just left and returned to her room.

In the room, Tang Mo’er swallowed the pill and whipped out her phone.
