Chapter 278: Walking Down This Lonely Path, Waiting For Someone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Was his fate sealed all because of that one hug?

Old Master Lu mentioned much later that Lu Qi’er would become his wife when he grew up. At that time, he blushed a deep red from embarrassment and ran into his room immediately.

He had entered such a competitive workforce at the age of 12, yet it was her first time seeing his embarrassed expression.

Even though Tang Mo’er and Lu Qi’er’s identities had been swapped, he still fell in love with Tang Mo’er at first sight.

Was this what you called fate?

...

Gu Mohan had a long dream.

He dreamt that he was back to being 10 years old. That day, he had come down with a fever and was taken to the hospital. When he woke up, the bed was empty and his parents were not around. As always. In fact, he had already adapted himself to such a cold, lonely life.

It was okay.

He was okay.

But he was thirsty. He wanted to grab a drink, however, there was no one there to help him. Struggling to get up, he grasped around at the bedside table to pour some water for himself.

However, there was no hot water in the ward.

He went out.

As he passed by the newborn nursery, he was drawn in the the soft cries of a baby. When he looked over, he saw a delicate little girl in her crib.

Eh?

It was said that newborns were ugly. However, this baby girl was an exception. She was adorable, with flawless skin and her features were delicate and simply gorgeous.

She was beautiful.

Perhaps, she heard that someone had come over and stopped crying, casting her gaze onto him.

It was indescribable, but that baby girl had a pair of big, beautiful eyes. Her eyes twinkled like stars and after wailing and getting the attention she wanted, she giggled merrily and gave him a radiant smile.

Although her teeth had not grown out yet, she had such a sweet smile. She had a sweet milky scent.

His birth was not welcomed as he was born into a broken family. He had grown up in violent conditions and gradually became cold-hearted over the course of time. At this moment, when he felt horrible and thirsty, the girl’s smile was like a beam of sunlight shining onto his heart.

Her giggles were like the sound of spring flowers blossoming and he stretched out his long fingers to tap the baby’s fingers. She giggled and shoved his pinky into her little palms tightly, not letting him go.

There was a popular slang to describe her behavior after many years — a tease.

The young baby girl had teased Gu Mohan and he was doomed from that moment on.

It was only later that he found out that she was the eldest daughter of the Lu family, Lu Qi’er.

Old Master Lu had mentioned later on that he would make Lu Qi’er his wife when they grew up. At that time, he had blushed and hid himself in the room.

On that particular day, he was sure that she would be his little bride.

However, Lu Qi’er was being sent to Karghalik not long after.

The Capital and Karghalik were extremely far away from each other. He had already entered the Gu Corporation and began on his own career. A man would only be worthy to love when he was rich and powerful enough.

He would be successful when he met her again. He would make sure of it.

When he was 18 years old, the Gu family held a coming-of-age ceremony for him. On that night, he drove from the Capital to Karghalik to see Lu Qi’er.

Finally he could see his little bride.

It had been a long time since he had seen her.

At that time, Lu Qi’er and Lin Ruoxi were getting off their private vehicle. Lu Qi’er carried a Louis Vuitton bag while Lin Ruoxi was taking photos of her. The woman in question carried a rather sensual vibe and was different to how he had imagined.

Glancing at her through the car windows, he did not get off the car. A heavy feeling of failure enveloped him. Finding it ridiculous, he shook his head and laughed at himself, before driving back to the Capital.

Nine years later, he met Tang Mo’er when he was 27 years old.

From the moment she went into his arms, his heart felt comforted. When had he felt this feeling before?The scent on her was extremely familiar, so familiar he was taken aback. It was as though he had known her for an extremely long time and had been waiting for her for all these years.

All this time, he had been walking down this lonely path, waiting for someone.

Gu Mohan opened his eyes, shutting out the darkness.
