“Let’s eat first.”
“Why are you avoiding me?” Mo Shengyun was furious. “Why don’t you dare to say it? Are you saying that my family doesn’t agree? It’s just a cover. In fact, it’s because you’re sick of me and don’t want to be with me anymore. That’s why you’re making all sorts of excuses, right?”
Mo Shengyun started to cry again and disappointment was written all over her face.
Gu Mingye looked at her expression and moved his lips. He wanted to speak but eventually kept silent.
That was not the case, of course it wasn’t the case!
Gu Mingye almost said this aloud, but when he saw the tears on Mo Shengyun’s face, he could only sigh.
He got up and hugged her, whispering, “Sheng’er, you deserve better.”
Mo Shengyun lay in his arms and sobbed. “You’re very good, Ah Ye. I know you won’t change your mind. You and Brother Xichen have been on such good terms since you were young. You two so alike, but… I really hate this thing about you both. You’re so self-righteous and you act on your own! You don’t think about other people’s feelings. Do you really think you’re doing this for my good? No!”
Gu Mingye held the woman in his arms silently.
“What you’re doing is of no use other than making me sad.” Mo Shengyun looked up and held his face with both hands. “Don’t you know what kind of person I am? I will cling to you forever. Unless you die, I will never give up on you. So just drop the idea!”
Gu Mingye stared at her with a solemn expression.
Mo Shengyun looked up at him. “Are you afraid of being infected by me?”
The man did not understand what she meant and looked puzzled.
Then, Mo Shengyun stepped forward to kiss him and bit him on his lips.
Gu Mingye frowned slightly and attempted to dodge when Mo Shengyun said, “Are you worried about getting sick?”
Before he could speak, Mo Shengyun had bitten his lip and stuck her tongue in.
Gu Mingye neither rejected nor responded.
Mo Shengyun had taken a short nap and now felt much better.
She didn’t feel defeated and instead became even more enthusiastic.
Finally, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him fervently.
No matter how still he kept, the girl showed no intention of giving up.
After more than ten seconds of getting no response from the man, Mo Shengyun felt that it was meaningless and released him.
Having expected this, he patted her head and said with a straight face, “Have something to eat.”
Feeling slightly better, Mo Shengyun asked slyly, “Are you worried about catching a bug from me?”
“You’re joking. Of course not.”
“It will happen.”
Gu Mingye removed her hand from his neck and said, “I’m in better health than you.”
“Not really. I’m in good health too and I’m sick now, aren’t I?” Mo Shengyun refused to let go. She looked at Gu Mingye and whispered, “I will get Dad and Grandpa to agree to us being together. Just you wait. And at that point, you will have to fulfill your promise.”
“What promise? Since when did I promise you anything?” Gu Mingye immediately became alert.
The girl was very clever. She had trapped him!
Mo Shengyun said confidently, “You said so. If the elders agree, you will marry me!”
“I didn’t.” Gu Mingye was certain.
Mo Shengyun straightened her back and shouted, “You did!”
“Impossible!”
“Are you trying to deny it?” Mo Shengyun demanded. “Why are you acting like a gangster?”
“Let go.” Gu Mingye pulled her away. “I didn’t say that.”
“You did too! Did too! Did too!” Mo Shengyun pouted and cried. “Why are you like this? Liar!”
Gu Mingye felt a headache coming on and said helplessly, “Okay, okay, I did, I did.”
Mo Shengyun smiled through her tears and sniffed. She sat down and said coquettishly, “Feed me. I’ve run out of energy.”
