âDonât worry too much about him. Someone who hurt you isnât worth your concern!â Mu Huan said.
Gu Chenyi had wanted to say something, but he only looked at Mu Huan for a long time without saying anything.
âChenyi, what do you want to eat? Iâll get you some food.â Mu Huan looked at him like she was someone who liked him a lot.
This gaze made Gu Chenyi temporarily forget his fears and worries. Only Mu Huan remained in his eyes. âI like whatever you make.â
â¦
In the days that followed, Gu Chenyi felt that this was even better than the beautiful life he had imagined. He had everything good that he could think of with Mu Huan. This made him keep telling himself that he shouldnât think about what the outside world was like. All he wanted was to be with her and live such a god-like life here!
However, even though he kept telling himself this, that this was a better life than he had imagined, actually, he slowly came to feel it wasnât that good. He couldnât completely let go of everything and grow old with her.
This was especially so since there were no intimate acts between the two of them. Sometimes, even if Mu Huan took the initiative to approach him, he would instinctively retreat and keep a distance from her.
He clearly yearned for her so much, and he didnât feel that there was anything wrong with being with her. She liked him too, butâ¦
Just like in the past, he was unable to have any intimate contact with her.
This made him realize that even though he had always felt that she was hersâ¦
At some point in time, the knowledge that she was his aunt had become so deep that he could not forget this fact no matter what.
They could not cross this minefield.
Also, through the news, he found out that his father was still in the ICU. The Gu familyâs shares had fallen to the lowest point because of his fatherâs illness. Perhaps because he had done such a thing, his uncle did not bother about the Gu familyâs matters. He heard that his grandfatherâs brotherâs family was already preparing to snatch the Gu Group away.
His mother had collapsed because of his father, and she had also been taken into the ICU. He was afraid that if this continued, he would never see them again.
They were his biological parents. They had doted on him since he was young. Heâ¦
How was he going to ignore their lives and stay here with Mu Huan, pretending that nothing had happened? How was he going toâ¦
Especially now that his uncle came looking for him againâ¦
âWhat do you want?!â Mu Huan stood in front of Gu Chenyi and faced Bo Junyan fiercely.
Gu Chenyi was touched by her protective behavior, but he felt even more guiltyâ¦
Because though she was protecting him like this, it wasnât because she really liked him. She was only like this because she had been hypnotized. If she hadnât been hypnotized, she definitely wouldnât have protected him and opposed his uncle like this!
He thought about the day she woke up from the hypnosis and recalled what she had done. He thought about how painful it would be for her to want to kill someoneâ¦
Gu Chenyi clenched his fists involuntarily.
He thought that he couldnât do anything to her and couldnât do anything intimate with her because she didnât really like him.
Because she didnât really like him, he couldnât help but be afraid that one day, when she woke up, she would hate him so much that sheâd want to kill him. Although he had been weaving beautiful dreams for himself, saying that if they were really together and had a child, the two of them would be able to live forever, actuallyâ¦
