When Gu Anran returned to Mu Zhanbei's ward, the man was still motionless on his bed."Has the doctor been here?" Gu Anran asked.Li Ye nodded, "The doctor said that it was difficult to explain what is happening to Eldest Young Master Mu, even from a medical's perspective."The doctor also mentioned that he would wake up if we have enough faith in him, and when he is willing to wake up.""Faith?" Gu Anran sat on the side of the hospital bed as she looked at Mu Zhanbei. His face was pale due
Gu Anran hurried to help him before she realized that she did not need to do that. It seemed like he was stronger than her. She could not believe it. "You—""That's right. I regained consciousness a while ago. I'm sorry." He had not wanted to lie to her, but he was afraid that she would leave as soon as she found out that he was fine.It took Gu Anran two seconds to calm down, and then her expression sank. "You lied to me!"She got up to leave, but Mu Zhanbei hugged her from behind."I'm s
Li Ye was back at the hospital in the evening with a bunch of documents. Gu Anran had prepared dinner for Mu Zhanbei, and she returned just as Li Ye exited the wardroom. "What's that?" her heart quivered when she saw the documents in Li Ye's hands. She did not know why, but she felt uneasy.Li Ye was not in a good mood; he was disappointed. However, he was still very respectful when he spoke to Gu Anran."These are the agreements signed by Eldest Young Master Mu."Li Ye stared at her as i
Mu Tianyou sighed out loud and stared out into the horizon. He had suppressed the sadness in his eyes the moment he lowered his head.He smiled. It was a bright smile, "It was stressful being with someone who does not love me. I've been thinking, is it really possible to get intimate with you without any hesitations?"Gu Anran bit her lips and blushed slightly. Nevertheless, her heart rejected any thoughts of intimacy with Mu Tianyou."Well, it looks like you are unwilling to do that with me.
She had returned to the same place.The public's opinion was like an unforgiving scourge; they did not let her off even for a moment.Even though Mu Zhanbei and Gu Jingyuan worked together to put out all the fires, the rumors persisted. It was as she had expected, but so what?She had a family who loved her and a husband who pampered her. Just as her grandfather said, as long as their family was together, what could be so bad about it?Gu Anran stood in front of the full-length window to look at the bright sunshine outside. Her family was in the courtyard.Her grandfather was in good health, and it had improved daily since her return. He had been so ill that he had to be confined to a wheelchair, but he could run after his great-grandchildren in the yard then. "The position of the lantern just won't do. Old Ding, what's wrong with you? Hurry up and fix it. It's not symmetrical at all!""Asymmetrical is the trend these days, don't you know, Old Man? You're old and don't know the
"I want a divorce." Gu Anran was disheartened as she looked at the impeccably handsome man who drove every woman crazy.Mu Zhanbei, the most popular ladies-man in Beijing, looked mysterious, noble, and exceptionally fine. Unfortunately, he was not destined for her.After three years of marriage and her countless effort, she had exhausted her every means to get him to love her. However, he still did not reciprocate her love. Three years later, on that very day, Gu Anran was tired, and her heart had died. She had completely given up hope."Divorce me, and I'll set you free. We'll have nothing to do with each other from here onward." There was no emotion on Mu Zhanbei's impassive face. He remained silent for about two seconds before he picked up the pen abruptly and scribbled on the paper. Then he stood up and strode away as if he had no care in the world. All the smitten ladies in the cafe stared at his trail as his tall and attractive back disappeared from their view.He had alway
Gu Anran found herself born again. Her warm body was in a deep V evening gown, and she had exaggerated makeup on her face. The clock on the wall showed that it was twelve minutes to eight! Her heart raced as she remembered why her surroundings seemed so familiar to her!She had been reborn as her eighteenth-year-old teenage self. That night was the party to celebrate her engagement to Mu Zhanbei.In her past life, she had been drugged and framed during that engagement party. Mu Zhanbei's people had found her grotesquely entangled with two male makeup artists. Even though the intruders had managed to halt the flagrant act to protect her virtue, everyone had known about that incident, and she had been infamous since then!Even though Mu Zhanbei was willing to marry her to fulfill his grandmother's last wish, he had never cast another warm look at her from then onward.At that moment, she realized that she was only two minutes away from the biggest tragedy that was to happen in h
It was as if time had stopped!Gu Anran's hand trembled. Li Ye was equally confused, but he was also worried about the cut on Eldest Young Master's neck. Only Mu Zhanbei's blank expression remained unchanged from the start.He cast a casual glance at the two men who were still in a frantic search outside. His cool thin lips moved slightly, and he uttered one word. A word that both Gu Anran and Li Ye could not believe. "Drive.""D...drive?" Li Ye was once again bewildered. Did the eldest young master feel threatened by the future young madam? However, Eldest Young Master was almost a God-like figure in Beiling. When had he ever felt threatened by anybody? Furthermore, someone had held a knife against the eldest young master's neck. It was as if they tried to dig their own grave!Gu Anran could not think clearly. When the car drove out of the hotel's carpark, her grip loosened, and the eyebrow razor slipped away from her fingers.The eldest young master caught the eyebrow razor
