Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

Louis Hills was like a crystal palace. It was extremely beautiful, as if one was living in a fairytale.

The VIPs gathered, shuttling around the banquet hall, chatting and exchanging gossip. They had no idea that Lu Qi'er was missing.

At this moment, the melodious wedding march sounded. A handsome figure appeared on the red carpet. It was Gu Mohan.

"Look, the wedding is starting!" The murmuring commotion quietened down instantaneously. Everyone shifted their attention onto the red carpet.

On the other end of the red carpet stood a delicate figure.

Everyone sucked in deep breaths, their eyes wide and stunned. They could not believe who they saw.

Tang Mo'er?

It was Tang Mo'er!

In recent times, Tang Mo'er and Gu Mohan had created a hive of criticism directed towards their coupling. To think that Tang Mo'er would actually turn up at his wedding! Everyone rushed up and stuck their heads out, wondering what had happened.

Tang Mo'er was so confused. She had no idea what was happening or where she was. The moment she got off the car, someone had brought her here.

She couldn't see a thing, yet all of her other senses were in overdrive,

Dang dang dang dang dang…

The wedding march…? Was she at the wedding venue?

She wanted to leave, however she didn't know how to. How could she escape this chaos?

Gu Mohan spotted Tang Mo'er amongst the crowd, he had fixed his deep and narrow gaze on Tang Mo'er. She was dressed in the flowing wedding gown he had chosen for her, her delicate skin smooth as the skin of a baby lamb. The dress hugged her body tightly, accentuating her slim waist while the lacy ends of her bridal gown made soft waves through the air. She resembled a goddess who had descended from the heavens and fallen into the world of mortals.

Such a beautiful sight would forever be etched in his heart.

He walked forward towards her slowly before stopping in front of her.

Tang Mo'er stopped in her tracks as she could sense someone near her. Her voice was hesitant as she asked softly, "May I ask where am I?"

"You're at my wedding."

The familiar, deep voice rang in her ears, causing her to freeze.

It was Gu Mohan.

"Ah!" she screamed, her eyelashes fluttering as she immediately used her delicate hands to cover her eyes.

She did not want him to see.

She did not want him to see her blind.

At this moment, a big palm stretched over and grabbed her hand, pulling them from her face. "Mo'er, I already know about it."

He… knew about it already?

"I know, I know everything, I know why you wanted to hide, I know why you insisted on breaking up, I know that you used Jun Chulin as your shield. That very night when you came to find me, you even got into a car accident. Mo'er, I'm sorry."

His tender voice carried some distress and his old gentleness. Tears welled up Tang Mo'er's eyes. Although she was scared, her decision to leave this place meant that she would face loneliness and death alone in a calm manner.

However, hearing his distressed and reproachful voice broke her heart.

What could she do?

Before meeting this man, Tang Mo'er thought she could hook up with jerks and play with their feelings. Yet, after meeting Gu Mohan, she became timid, gentle and dependent.

All she ever wanted was to be able to wake up in his arms everyday.

What she would give to be able to do that.

Seeing her tear-stricken face, Gu Mohan's heart broke. She looked so pitiful.

He handed the antidote to her and coaxed her, "Be good, open your mouth."

What was he trying to feed her?

Tang Mo'er guessed immediately that it had to be the antidote. She stepped back and her blank eyes saw nothing as she pushed him away. "Gu Mohan, you married Lu Qi'er to get the antidote for me, didn't you? Do you really think I'll take the antidote which you exchanged your body for? What do you take me for?"

"Mo'er, listen to me. There is no wedding between me and Lu Qi'er. Today's wedding is our wedding, it's just for me and you."

Tang Mo'er's pupils contracted. She thought of when she had tried on the wedding dress at Jinhua Palace, when he tried to make her call him her husband. The rose he gave her and the contraband goods at the airport…

Everything was planned by him to the most explicit detail.

He had never thought of marrying Lu Qi'er. The wedding was always meant for him and her.

All he wanted was to marry her, no other woman would ever come between them.

Everything happened so suddenly that Tang Mo'er did not know how to react.

At this moment, Gu Mohan kneeled down on one knee, taking out the One and Only ring. "Mo'er, may I propose to you now?

"I already prepared a script but I can't remember what I wrote. This is my first time to propose to a woman, so I'm more nervous than I thought I'd be. At such an important moment, I don't want to treat this light-heartedly.

"Mo'er, when we first met three years ago, I fell in love with you at first sight. If you ask me what I like about you, I like your intelligence and playfulness. I like it when you look dumb and indignant when you get bullied, I like your gentle smile, I like your grace, I like everything about you.

"Because I like you, I don't ever want to part from you. I want to be in a loving relationship with you that will last longer than eternity. I want to make a promise to you for a lifetime because I like you. No matter how old we are, let's never be apart until the end of time. I'll always hold your hand and take you to the end of this world with me."

A stream of crystal tears rolled down her cheeks like broken beads. She could not hold it in any longer.

Her delicate shoulders were trembling non stop as she burst into tears. Mr Gu had proposed to her.

Her Mr Gu.

It was so touching and romantic.

However…

"Y-You'd rather marry a beauty and not have your empire?" Tang Mo'er choked on her tears.

At this moment, Old Master Gu stood at the stairs. He was observing the happenings that were taking place on the red carpet. Hearing Tang Mo'er's question, he gripped his walking stick even harder, waiting in anticipation for Gu Mohan's answer.

Gu Mohan's lips expressed a faint and calm smile. This question was significant as it would determine if he would lose the entire empire and wealth he had built up from scratch. His deep voice rang in everyone's ears, "Mo'er, I've always wanted to tell you my answer. I can always rebuild my empire again, but once I lose the woman I love, she will be gone forever. Because of this, I don't need the empire. The beauty is all I need.

"When you marry me today, I'll be left with nothing. Mo'er, just give me three years. Whether is it the Gu family or the Lu family, they will only be a thing of the past. With my hands, I will build my own empire, I'll be the wealthiest businessman in three years time. I promise you this."

—- 'Whether is it the Gu family or the Lu family, they will only be a thing of the past. With my hands, I will build my own empire, I'll be the wealthiest businessman in three years time.'

Good, very good. This grandson of his.

At this moment, Old Master Gu gripped his walking stick even harder than before. As he looked at the man who was bent on one leg in front of the woman, his pale face revealed his extreme frustration and annoyance.
