Chapter 399: I Plan to Pursue You
Mo Rao was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped. She thought she was hallucinating.
“What did you say?” Mo Rao stammered.
“I said, I plan to pursue you. I wonder if you’re willing to give me a chance or not.” Gu Ci went straight to the point.
Mo Rao had never thought that Gu Ci would want to pursue her.
Before this, she had always thought that Gu Ci and her were not even friends.
There was a moment of silence on the phone. It was Gu Ci who broke the awkward silence and continued, “When I was overseas, I felt quite attracted to you. I thought about it for a long time before I decided to return to the country.”
“I want you to move on from your past.”
Mo Rao was still dumbfounded. “I didn’t expect you to like me…”
“I’m not good at expressing my feelings. After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to be direct.”
Gu Ci was indeed direct, so direct that Mo Rao was caught off guard.
In terms of expressing their feelings, Gu Ci and Fu Ying were a little similar. They expressed their feelings directly and acted on them.
“You can consider it carefully. I’ll give you time.” Gu Ci didn’t want to make things difficult for Mo Rao.
“Yes… I still haven’t fully processed it yet.” Mo Rao’s mind was buzzing.
On the other end of the phone, Gu Ci could even imagine Mo Rao’s current expression. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
“It’s okay. Rest well. We still have a lot of time. Good night.”
With that, Gu Ci hung up, leaving Mo Rao sitting on the bed in a daze.
Gu Ci actually liked her and wanted to pursue her?
Was she dreaming?
Mo Rao recalled everything she had experienced with Gu Ci overseas.
After she met Gu Ci, he had indeed helped her a lot.
For example, he found the best psychologist to treat her depression, the best acting coach for her, and introduced her to his friends in the movie industry.
If not for Gu Ci, Mo Rao wouldn’t be where she was today.
However, although Gu Ci treated her very well, he always kept a distance from her. This made Mo Rao unable to figure out what Gu Ci was thinking or what kind of person he was.
She felt that Gu Ci was like a gust of wind that she couldn’t catch.
Thinking of the expensive jewelry called “Atlantean Tears” and the bright red roses, Mo Rao still felt like she was in a dream.
Because of this “unexpected event”, Mo Rao didn’t sleep well that night. She kept thinking about Gu Ci.
When she woke up the next morning, her dark circles were very obvious. When Mo Yuan saw her dark circles, he thought that she had encountered trouble and he hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong with you? You didn’t sleep the entire night? Filming didn’t go smoothly yesterday?”
“I’m fine. I just had insomnia.”
Mo Rao decided not to tell Mo Yuan that Gu Ci wanted to woo her. If she told him, Mo Yuan would definitely try to persuade her to date him every day like a chatterbox. Mo Rao wouldn’t be able to stand it.
Mo Yuan didn’t think too much about it. Instead, he asked about the red roses in the vase. “Speaking of which, who sent these roses? Could it be Fu Ying?”
What had to come had come.
Mo Rao lied, “It’s not from Fu Ying. It’s a gift from a fan.”
“Is that so?” Mo Yuan asked, observing Mo Rao’s expression.
Mo Rao was an actress after all, so she said to Mo Yuan firmly, “Of course.”
“Alright, I’ll believe you for the time being.” Mo Yuan didn’t find any flaws, so he didn’t ask further. “After Gu Ci sent you jewelry, many magazines want to work with you. You have time to choose in the next few days.”
Mo Rao took a sip of milk and nodded aloofly.
Taking magazine photoshoots was a relatively simple task for Mo Rao.
Perhaps Fu Ying’s threat had worked, but in the next two days, even though Chen Xiang still acted like a diva, she never provoked Mo Rao. She would only roll her eyes at Mo Rao from time to time. Mo Rao felt much better.
During filming, Mo Rao hated drama in the production team.
She just wanted to focus on filming.
