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!
