Update 1 Seeking Subscriptions (6) Jian Ran: ââŚâ
Ignoring.
Jian Ran pretended she didnât hear and almost fled the office in escape.
Gu MochenâŚ
Shameless.
Gu Mochen watched as Jian Ranâs flustered figure fled in panic, his thin lips curving into a faint, amused smirk.
It seemed only Jian Ran could stir up such eagerness within him.
But then again, because it was Jian Ran.
He was willing to give her enough time to walk into the netâŚ
If it were forceful, and it killed the thrill instantly, that would be terribly dull.
Gu Mochenâs thin lips pressed together slightly, his dark eyes flashing with an alluring brilliance.
HmmâŚ
He looked forward to Jian Ran surprising him over and over again.
When it came to the woman he wanted, he did not wish to confine her, but neither did he want her to stray beyond his protection.
As Gu Mochen pondered, his private phone rang with an unfamiliar number.
Gu Mochenâs brows furrowed for a moment, then he quickly picked up the call.
âUncle, itâs me.â
At the sound, Gu Mochenâs lips involuntarily lifted in a smile.
Tang BaoâŚ
âWhy are you calling me from a new number?â
âUm, Uncle, this is the teacherâs phone, sigh⌠I missed you so much during nap timeâŚâ
At her words, warmth flooded Gu Mochenâs eyes.
Yes, being missed and thought of every day by a little girl wasnât a bad feeling.
âHmm.â
âAlright, Iâll tell you the truth, um⌠Xiaoming just said I donât have a daddy again, so I borrowed the teacherâs phone to call my daddy.
But I didnât have anyone to call, so I could only call you.â
Gu Mochen: ââŚâ
The little girlâs once chipper voice faltered, and Gu Mochen could clearly hear the loss in her words.
A bit pitiful, with a choking strength in it.
Hearing this, Gu Mochen felt a tight pull at his heart, and it ached unbearably.
âHehe, Uncle, Iâm calling from the hallway, all the kids are sleeping in their beds.
Now that they see me calling my daddy, theyâll definitely believe I have one, right?
Can I show off to them later?â
Gu Mochen could hear the carefulness in Tang Baoâs voice and felt immensely heartbroken.
âOf course, you canâŚâ
Children without a daddy by their side.
Gu Mochenâs eyes darkened slightly as he reflected, his own childhood had not been different.
At the core, he and Tang Bao were quite similar.
She grew up without a father; he might as well have grown up without one.
So he understood her feelings all too well.
Hearing Gu Mochen agree that she could boast to the other children, Tang Bao was thrilled, and, thinking of something, she spoke softly, âThen Uncle, when I call you from kindergarten, can I call you daddy?
I⌠I want to boast.
Okay, Mommy always says children shouldnât boast or lie, but I really miss daddy⌠And I donât want the other kids to know I donât have one.â
Tang Bao pouted her little mouth, speaking tentatively, her big bright eyes brimming with tears, as if she was about to cry.
At her words, something stirred in Gu Mochenâs heart, and he replied firmly.
âThatâs okay.â
âWow⌠Uncle I love you, no no, Daddy, I love you.â
Gu Mochen, hearing the little girlâs âDaddyâ over the phone, was taken aback and stood frozen in place.
