Yao Rong suddenly jumped up and darted forward, but unfortunately, the little fox was extremely quick and burrowed into Gu Chuyanâs arms right away.
âCould it be male?â Yao Rong let her imagination run wild.
The more she thought about it, the more possible it seemed. She leaned in close to examine Gu Chuyanâs fair face, and asked in a low voice: âItâs not attracted to you, is it?â
Gu Chuyan was taken aback. She reached out and poked Yao Rongâs forehead:
âYao Rong! You fujoshi, youâve been reading too many of those novels, your imagination is wild.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Upon hearing this, Yao Rong pouted: âAlright, alright! Take good care of your darling! Itâs too cold, you should hurry back, or your rich guy will be worried.â
What exactly was her relationship with Xiao Mohan? She wasnât really clear on it herself! He had saved her a few times, treated her really well! Ensured her living expenses, and sheâ¦they even seemingly had a marriage certificate.
âWhat does blushing signify?â Noticing this, Yao Rong was all over it, not wanting to pass up this opportunity.
âYao Rong,â Gu Chuyan pretended to be upset.
Yao Rong backed away a few steps, called a cab, and after getting in, stuck her head out of the window to blow her a kiss: âHurry back!â
Gu Chuyan was standing there as she flagged down a taxi: âCould you please take me to the mid-hillside, thank you.â
âMid-hillside? Miss! Are you sure? Cars canât go up the mountain.â The driver frowned upon hearing this, clearly reluctant, but seeing that she was a young lady alone, he relented: âAlright, Iâll take you to the foot, and you walk from there?â
âThat works,â Gu Chuyan responded.
The taxi dropped her off at the foot of the hill, and she walked towards the Xiao Family Pavilion in little steps.
Behind her trailed a fluffy little thing, bouncing along, now and then darting into the bushes to catch bugs and occasionally rolling out, keeping a distance from her.
âI must be crazy, actually bringing it back,â Gu Chuyan laughed at her silliness.
She was jogged before she realised how far it was to the mid-hillside. After walking for a full hour, she finally arrived!
With her breath coming in gasps, Gu Chuyan leaned against the wall to catch her breath before entering.
The doors automatically opened and the lights in the hall came on, revealing an empty house.
âXiao Mohan, Iâm home!â Excited, she ran upstairs hoping to see that familiar figure. Unfortunately, no matter where she looked in the entire mansion, she couldnât find him.
She took off her coat, sat on the sofa, and picked up her cell phone to call him:
âIâm sorry, the number you have dialled is switched off.â
After some thought, she tried calling Han Changqing. Also switched off!
âWhen are you coming back?â She sent him a message then rummaged in her handbag. She pulled out 900 yuan (spent 100 on the taxi), held it high up.
The light shone on the red notes, she kissed the money, jumped up to take a bath, came down to get some food!
She waited till late in the night, sleeping alone on the couch!
The next day, he still wasnât back! His phone still off, the next two days, no sign of his presence, the fourth day, fifth day, the sixth day!
An entire week passed, it was as if Xiao Mohan just evaporated from the face of the Mortal World!
Gu Chuyan stood on the slope, overlooking the whole of S City. Yet for some reason, she felt an emptiness in her heart. No matter what she did, that emptiness just wouldnât fill up.
âXiao Mohan, where on earth have you gone? Donât tell me you donât want me anymore?â She fell on her knees on the ground, looking ahead in confusion. He had said that no matter what, he wouldnât leave her!
Was he lying to her too? Gu Chuyan kept shaking her head, believing that Xiao Mohan wasnât that kind of person! Definitely not!
