It is said that men who get married the first time are worth diamonds and divorcés are worth peanuts. That was why she chose to leave the title of Mrs Gu behind.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

Though she was aware that in Mr Gu’s mind, he didn’t give a damn about being a bachelor or divorce, but ever since they had met, he was the one protecting her all along. She had limited capabilities and didn’t have much to give him in return, she decided that this would be her final gift to him.

Hearing her words, Gu Mohan got down the stairs and stretched out his muscular arm, pulling Tang Mo’er into his embrace. He planted a kiss on her silky hair and whispered, “It’s a quick procedure to get a new identity card, we shall come back tomorrow.”

Tang Mo’er looped her arms around his trim waist, burying her pale face in his chest. She shut her eyes. “Mr Gu, I’m sorry, I can’t accompany you in this lifelong journey.”

Gu Mohan held her narrow waist tightly without relent, he couldn’t help but want to hug her so tightly that she would fuse into his blood and bones. He wanted to become one with her. “Mo’er, be good. You’ve not allowed to spout such nonsense again, we’ll come back again tomorrow!”

“Mr Gu,” Tang Mo’er said smilingly, “How about this, when I fully recover, I’ll come over and register our marriage. If I don’t recover, you’re not allowed to forget about me even after you marry another Mrs Gu in the future. I want you to remember that I’m the one who left behind the title of Mrs Gu, I want you to... cherish me forever.”

Gu Mohan’s eyes were bloodshot, he burrowed his face in her delicate neck. “Mo’er, don’t be afraid, we’re not facing the end of our journey yet. Don’t lose hope, I’ll definitely save your life. I’ll be sure to find a way to save your life. Nobody can take you away from me.”

He’d be sure to find a way to save her life, he wouldn’t be willing to compromise for anything less than her full recovery.

Tang Mo’er took in his clean, masculine body scent before pushing him away. She ran her fingertips over his handsome face. She wasn’t able to see all this while and she hadn’t taken taken a good look at his face. He was still as good looking and charming as always, she couldn’t help but fall for him again. “Mr Gu, do you still remember your vow during your proposal? Before there’s an eventual end to humanity, we would never be apart. As long as I’m alive, we will never part ways.”

Gu Mohan stretched out his bony fingers and pulled her hand over, holding it tightly. He looked right into her watery eyes and questioned her, “Mo’er, will you... forget about me?”

He chose to ask her that question after all.

Would she forget about him?

She had forgotten the entire world, with the exception of him.

He was afraid, so afraid that she would eventually forget about him too.

Huo Yanmei.

Gu Mohan facial expression was still the same, he didn’t have much of a reaction even after finding out the truth. He was sure that his mother would definitely have something to do with it ever since he tested the waters with her at the hospital previously. He drew his brows together. “Lu Jinwen had absolute control over the entire Capital back then. When Lin Xuanji was in labor, he had closed off the entire hospital, ensuring that people were only allowed to enter and weren’t allowed to exit. How could it be possible that my mother had pulled off such an intricate plan, right under his nose?”

21 years ago, the Gu family wasn’t that powerful in the Capital yet. He just wasn’t convinced that his mother would be able to single-handedly fool a tough character like Lu Jinwen.

Yan Dong nodded his head in agreement. “President, just as you’ve expected, there’s one other person involved in the operation, other than Madam.”

Gu Mohan lifted his eyes and his gaze landed on Yan Dong. He muttered a name, “Lin Xuanji.”

He wasn’t confirming it with Yan Dong but rather giving a definite answer.

Only Lin Xuanji would have the ability to pull off such an operation right under Lu Jinwen’s nose.

Yan Dong nodded. “Yes, Lin Xuanji was collaborating with Madam.”

Gu Mohan returned the document to its cover page and tapped his slender fingers on the surface of the desk. It made some rhythmic sounds, he was in deep thought.

Why would they choose to do that?

“President, this is a photograph of Lin Xuanji.” Yan Dong placed a photograph on the desk, right beside Gu Mohan’s hand. “There’s an uncanny resemblance between Lin Xuanji and Young Madam.”

Gu Mohan lowered his eyes, taking a glimpse of Lin Xuanji’s portrait, a sardonic smile hinted at the edge of his lips. “Mo’er is Lin Xuanji’s daughter, Lu Qi’er is Qin Yawen’s daughter. The two girls were swapped, Tang Hai and Qin Yawen also played a part in the operation. I just couldn’t figure out the reason behind Lin Xuanji’s decision, why would she choose to swap her daughter?”

Since even the sagacious Gu Mohan couldn’t figure out why, Yan Dong obviously didn’t bother to waste his precious brain cell wracking his brain. “President, Lu Jinwen’s love triangle with the Lin sisters was always rumor in the Capital. No one knew exactly who was Lu Jinwen’s true love, was it Lin Xuanyin or Lin Xuanji? My guess is that there’s no definite answer to Lin Xuanji’s decision after giving birth. The possibilities are simply endless.”

“The matter of utmost importance now would be that Young Madam is the biological daughter of Lu Jinwen, she is the real treasured daughter of the Lu family. Lu Qi’er is merely an imposter. Qin Yawen even resorted to such extreme measures to protect her daughter’s treasured status. She’s truly evil, even wanting to ruin Young Madam’s appearance, we should help Young Madam regain her rightful status as soon as possible!”

Gu Mohan was deep in thought, he raised a good-looking brow and narrowed his eyes, the fine lines around his eye area were all visible. He was evidently pleased after learning of such an outcome, a voice resounded in his ears repeatedly—- Young Madam is the real treasured daughter of the Lu family.

21 years ago, he was attracted to a newborn baby girl at a hospital in the Capital. Her tiny hands maintained firm grip on his index finger, refusing to loosen her grip. She puckered her lips and smiled brightly. She had such a sweet smile.

It was love at first sight.
