Chapter 19 - Obtaining Confidence
Gu Mohan was a little upset, how did his words leak out so quickly? Seeing that Yuan Han was staring at him in a daze, with her eyes shining brightly, he helplessly said: "Xiao Han, you didn't pay attention to me before, so am I not allowed to pay attention to you now?"
"Ugh …"
Yuan Han's face unconsciously flushed red, her heart thumping loudly like a little deer running around. But when she saw Gu Mohan's wronged expression, Yuan Han couldn't help but laugh out loud. It was really hard for her to imagine that the serious and upright CEO Gu would actually display such an aggrieved expression in front of her!
"You still have the nerve to laugh?" Seeing Yuan Han's teasing expression, Gu Mohan could not help but knock on her forehead. What a heartless girl!
"Yuan Han stopped laughing, and raised her hand to cover the area where Gu Mohan had knocked on him. Who told you to be so funny just now? "
"I've always been paying attention to you, but as for you, you've completely forgotten about me. You're still thinking about marrying another man. Don't tell me that I shouldn't feel wronged?"
"I didn't know who you were in the past, how could I pay attention to you? Besides, Huo Lang and I didn't do it on our own accord … Isn't it because of my dad and my stepmother? " When he thought about that pile of bad thoughts, Yuan Han's mood couldn't help but plummet.
Looking at Yuan Han's sad expression, Gu Mohan could not bear it anymore. She cursed herself for talking too much, why did she mention such a thing? He patted Yuan Han's hand and gently said: "Alright, Xiao Han, isn't this matter over? Don't be sad, in the future, you have me! I will definitely not let you suffer even the slightest bit! "
Hearing Gu Mohan's words, it was definitely true that Yuan Han was not moved when she said that. Her own father did not dare to make such a promise to her, but Gu Mohan did! Furthermore, Yuan Han knew that since Gu Mohan had spoken, she would definitely work hard to do so. Yuan Han felt a warmth that she had never felt before, a warmth that warmed her eyes. She tried her best to restrain her tears and only then was she able to force them back.
What virtue or ability did she, Yuan Han, have to be blessed by a man who was like a god?
Was it for the cup of hot milk and a loaf of soft bread?
Then, was Gu Mohan simply grateful to her, or …?
Yuan Han's heart was in a mess, and she could not help but ask the question that was on her mind, "Mo Han, if … I mean, if I didn't help you back then... Would you be so kind to me without milk and bread? We... Do you still know him? "
"If it wasn't for what happened back then, why would I pay special attention to you?"
Originally … It was really because of that incident!
"Oh." Yuan Han replied softly and lowered her head. She did not want Gu Mohan to see the disappointment in her eyes.
Seeing Yuan Han like this, Gu Mohan knew that she had misunderstood him. Once again, he caressed Yuan Han's hair and lovingly said: "Idiot … I admit that the reason I was paying attention to you in the first place was because of our childhood. At that time, I thought you were especially kind and beautiful, so I deeply remembered you. I don't know what love at first sight is, I only know that the only thought in my mind at that time was, 'I must become very strong, I must come back and repay this kind girl!' After that, the situation in the family got better and better, so I was able to pay attention to you. At that time, I found out that even though you are a rich young master, you did not live a good life … Many times, I wanted to come out and meet you, but I was afraid that my sudden appearance would scare you and that you would forget about me. As such, he kept dragging it out … I know you're a stubborn girl and won't easily accept the good intentions of others. So, I can only help you secretly a little bit, let the owner give you less work... Then I knew you were going to be married, and I thought you were going to marry Hollow voluntarily. I am sad, but I don't want to ruin your happiness … But I still can't let you go. So, I quietly went to Chengde Manor, the scene of your wedding. At that time, I just thought, as long as I can see your smiling face as you marry the person you like, I will be at ease! After that, you'll know what happened. When you asked for a marriage at the wedding site, you told me about the matter of Huo Lang and your sister, and I took you away. Xiao Han, I've told you so much today, it's just to tell you that I'm serious about you! Regardless of whether it was the glimpse I gave when I was young, or the stubborn you that I slowly fell in love with, I, Gu Mohan, am serious. You're so beautiful, I won't allow you to be bullied by others! "
These words of Gu Mohan caused Yuan Han to be shocked. At the same time, the heart that was in her heart seemed to drop to the ground.
Originally … Was it not for the glass of milk and the piece of bread?
Gu Mohan liked her! And I loved it for a long, long time!
This understanding also made Yuan Han's heart boil, as though something was about to burst out, but was forcefully suppressed by her.
Gu Mohan's appearance had both surprised and happy him. At her most embarrassing moment, he appeared like a savior and brought her to a garden of blossoming flowers! Her happiness came so suddenly that she couldn't take it anymore …
Looking at Yuan Han's conflicted expression, how could Gu Mohan not understand what she was thinking? He didn't plan to force Yuan Han too much, so she said gently: "Alright Xiao Han, I won't force you. You have a very long time to think about what I just said. As long as you think about it properly, just let me know and we'll go get it right away. "
Yuan Han did not know what to say, and could only nod her head lightly. Seeing that she agreed, Gu Mohan laughed silently.
"It's already so late, let's rest early. We still have to go to work tomorrow morning."
"But these …" Yuan Han shifted her gaze onto the stack of documents on the desk. She was still a little hesitant.
"It's too late today. We'll watch it tomorrow. Xiao Han, even if you don't believe in yourself, you should at least believe in my judgement, right? If I say you can do it, you can. Trust in your ability, you're not bad. It's just a slightly bigger project, and you'll get more of it in the future, even bigger than this one. So, you don't have to be afraid at all, huh? "
Hearing Gu Mohan's words, Yuan Han's heart seemed to no longer be as nervous as before. Although this project was somewhat difficult, it didn't seem impossible for her.
Looking at the time again, he realized that it was already past midnight. Thinking about how Gu Mohan was the same as her, had to get up early to go to work tomorrow and still had to spend so much effort to encourage her, Yuan Han couldn't help but feel guilty. Therefore, she hurriedly nodded her head, "Yes, I am confident now hearing you say so. Mo Han, you should hurry back to your room and rest.
"That's good. Good night." Gu Mohan laughed, and once again caressed Yuan Han's hair.
