Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After the 'Love Poison' was injected into his arm, Gu Mohan lifted his blanket, got into bed and lay down beside Tang Mo'er. Stretching out his well-defined fingers, he caressed her delicate, exquisite face with a gentleness that was never shown to anyone other than her.

A pair of willowy eyebrows, luscious eyelashes, a delicate nose, and little red lips… there was nothing that was not perfectly carved out. His fingers stroked her face lovingly, every inch of his touch filled with tenderness.

Mo'er.

His Mo'er.

Gu Mohan stretched out his strong arm, and enveloped her delicate body in his broad embrace. His head was buried in her neck as he slowly closed his reddened eyes and muttered, "Mo'er, I wish to hear you call me… Mr Gu…"

…

Tang Mo'er had a very long dream.

In her dream, Mr Gu was poisoned. He was in so much pain that the veins on his entire body throbbed, but he still hugged her tight and murmured in her ear repeatedly, "Mo'er, I'm fine, I'm not in pain."

- —Mo'er, let me hug you for a while. I will not feel any pain when I'm hugging you.

—-Mo'er, I will save you. If I can't save you, then we will live and die together.

—-Mo'er, if, I'm saying if, if I ever forget about you and let go of your hand, you have to remember me. You have to find me and hold my hand tight.

—-Mo'er, please call me… Mr Gu… I wish to hear…

Big drops of tears streamed down her face. She wanted to wake up. She tried hard to move her fair fingers and grasp him tightly. She tried hard to move her red lips to speak up. Mr Gu. She wanted to call him Mr Gu.

Her Mr Gu. She called out his name repeatedly in her heart, but she could not make a sound.

Why couldn't she speak?

She could not make a sound at all. She was unable to wake up.

She saw with her own eyes how much pain Mr Gu was in. After that, there were many people entering the room. Who were they?

'That is great. President Gu finally survived the 'Love Poison'. We can begin.'

She was pushed into a white operating theater. Bam! The blinding operating light was switched on and she turned her head to avoid the glare of the unrelenting beam of light. At this moment, she saw Mr Gu being pushed in too.

Mr Gu was just by her side. If she reached her hand out, she was able to touch him.

'President Gu, can we begin?'

Someone asked him.

Mr Gu looked over. Mr Gu looked at her for the last time. Tang Mo'er thought that she would never forget this look in her lifetime. This was the last time he looked at her. The 'Love Poison' had taken away all his memories in the end. As he looked at her, he wondered whether it was the last time.

His deep and reddened eyes were filled with feelings of relentless pain, reluctance, heartache and affection…

All these feelings were entwined and stabbed her heart repeatedly, as though she was stabbed by a searing hot knife. She felt a scorching hot pain that burned her inside.

No.

No!

Mr Gu!

Tang Mo'er let out a shrill cry and slowly opened her eyes.

…

As Tang Mo'er gradually opened her eyes, the white ceiling entered her vision.

The hospital…?.

"Miss Tang, you are awake? That's great, Miss Tang is awake! Quick, call the doctor!" The nurse examined happily.

Tang Mo'er turned her head and looked at the bed beside her. It was empty.

Mr Gu…?

Mr Gu wasn't there.

Mr Gu had disappeared.

Tang Mo'er slowly moved her fair fingers. Her fingers trailed to the bed beside her and touched it. Two drops of crystal-clear tears fell onto her face first, before big droplets of hot tears streamed down.

She turned to her side and curled up her body. In an instant, she was sobbing uncontrollably.

It was not a dream. It was really not a dream. Mr Gu had left.

The moment she opened her eyes, Mr Gu had already disappeared.

Her five fair fingers clutched the bedsheets and vigorously twisted the bedsheets into a clump. Her smooth shoulder started to quiver and she choked out his name at last, "Gu Mohan… Mr Gu…"

At this moment, a broad hand pressed on her shoulder. Someone had come.

Tang Mo'er startled and in that instant, forgot her tears. Lifting her tear-stained face, she looked up at the person. "Mr Gー"

Her voice trailed off. This wasn't Mr Gu. It was… Lu Jinwen.

Lu Jinwen's handsome, chiseled face grew larger in her vision.

The light in Tang Mo'er's pristine eyes instantaneously extinguished. She looked at Lu Jinwen, then turned to look at Lu Yan and the group of doctors and nurses who were rushing over. The only person she was looking for was not there.

The familiar figure, the tall and handsome figure. Every time she needed him, he would appear like a deity, protecting her from any harm.

He had never left her, not even for a second.

He was always by her side and doting upon her, loving her.

But now, he had disappeared.

Her Mr Gu…

She would never be able to find him again in this sea of people.

Tang Mo'er looked at Lu Jinwen again. Hot tears streamed down her tiny face as she sobbed, her voice choking in despair, "Where is Gu Mohan? He… where did he go? He… why is he not here?"

Lu Jinwen's broad figure stood by her bed. He looked down at Tang Mo'er's crying face and stretched a finger out to wipe her tears. "Don't cry, Gu Mohan has returned to the Capital."

He returned to the Capital?

He… returned to the Capital.

This sentence reverberated continuously in her ears. He had left her here and returned to the Capital.

Alone.

Did he not want her anymore?

Tang Mo'er reached out her fair hand and forcefully grasped Lu Jinwen's large palm. "Can you ask him to come back? I want to see him. I really miss him a lot… I had a nightmare, I dreamed that… he had forgotten me…"

"Mo'er," Lu Jinwen said in a strained voice. "Gu Mohan injected the 'Love Poison' into himself to save you. Fortunately, he survived the most difficult part of the poison… but he was unable to withstand the effects of taking such a lethal poison. He has forgotten you."

As he spoke about Gu Mohan, Lu Jinwen's eyes revealed a hint of respect. There were few people in this world that he held high regard for. Lu Yan was one, which was why he had picked him up amongst the beggars and taken him home. The only other person was Gu Mohan.

Gu Mohan was tenacious, responsible and ambitious. He was able to devise strategies to deal effectively with various situations. A man like Gu Mohan was akin to another Lu Jinwen.

His achievements in the commercial sector would not pale in comparison to Lu Jinwen's.

Tang Mo'er lifted the blanket and ran outside barefooted. "I'm going to look for Mr Gu. He would not have forgotten me… even if he has forgotten me, I will still look for him, and make him remember me!"

She ran to the door and suddenly, it was pitch-black before her. Her delicate body crumbled like the fallen leaves of a tree.

"Mo'er!" Lu Jinwen reached out his hand to catch her before she fell to the ground.

…

Tang Mo'er was in the hospital for half a month. The poison in her body had already been purged and she could finally be discharged.

On this day, she opened the door to the ward and walked out. There was a television in the nurse's station and it was airing a piece of financial news. The host was fluently switching between English and Chinese and reported—-

'The magnate of the commercial sector, Gu Mohan, officially stepped down from his position as the President of the Gu Corporation a few months ago. He has created his own company named "Hilton". Today, we see that "Hilton" had gone public in the American stock market and the value of its shares has tripled. Even though Gu Mohan left the Gu family, his personal wealth still puts him at the top of the list of the richest and most affluent people in the country. This business prodigy is stunning the entire commercial sector with his successes.'
