Chapter 209: Chapter 209 Love Only You_Part 1
Whenever she had a moment to herself, her mind would wander to these matters, and at night, she would often wake up startled in Gu Hangshen’s arms. Looking into his profound eyes, she reminisced about every little moment spent with this man...
Why did happiness have to be snatched away just when it was one step within reach!
Was this the tribulation they were destined to endure for being together?
Could her mother have been right, that a man like him would only bring her sorrow?
She hadn’t insisted on leaving him but had chosen to give them both a chance to start over. Despite the pain it might bring, she spared no effort. Could this decision truly have been mistaken?
He was of such a lofty status while she was nothing but dust in comparison. She knew only that this defiance of fate would be painful, but how could she have known it would hurt this much, or whether she would be able to endure the pain without letting go!
"Baby, what’s wrong? Another nightmare?" he soothed as he gently patted her back.
"Mhm..." She nuzzled his arm, wary yet dependent on his embrace.
"Wife, I love you. I don’t want anyone but you. I want just you, I love only you..."
During the night, he consoled her by her ear, over and over again.
Gu Hangshen, who was always lacking in sentiment and could never utter a word of romance, had been unreservedly showering her with sweet nothings these days.
And every sleepless night, she fell asleep to the comforting sounds of his voice...
Giving her the courage to believe in him...
Although the paper that carried the weight of human civilization and scientific progress seemed indestructible like a mountain, yet there existed a belief: to believe is to exist!
Yes, sometimes reality is much more brutal than so-called ideals and beliefs.
Gu Hangshen’s explanation never came, but the child’s mother did.
Previously, to create a smokescreen, Shi Letian had pretended to slam a woman he dubbed Lan Shan on V, and later, due to busyness, never touched her again and just kept her at home.
Later, when Gu Hangshen’s anger was directed toward the child, Shen Letian and several others drew lots, and he was the unfortunate one, thus he had to temporarily take in the child.
At the time, Shen Letian had intended to find him a nanny. However, he had not anticipated that the girl he brought back last time looked so young but actually had experience with children and got along well with them too.
So, Shen Letian simply entrusted the child to her care.
Later on, when the child was brought back to the care of the elders in the Gu Family, since the elderly needed a special caregiver to watch over the child day-to-day, Shen Letian simply did a favor and recommended Lan Shan for the job.
From what he knew, this girl was usually quiet and reserved but simple and kind-hearted.
Her father had run away alone years ago, leaving behind a trail of gambling debts for her, her mother, and her brother. Her mother later left as well, unable to bear the endless stream of debt collectors and her brother’s kidney disease.
To pay off the debts and save her brother, she had tried everything possible, but it was not enough. In the end, she had no choice but to sell herself.
Shen Letian had once flirted with her a few times, yet her eyes remained calm and still like an ancient well. There was no shy demureness that young girls often have, no fear or panic, not even admiration or desire. All there was a worldly acceptance.
Although Shen Letian was promiscuous and unfaithful, he was not without principles. He truly intended to lend a hand to such a girl, which was why he had introduced her to the job of taking special care of infants.
But who could have expected that this woman was actually the child’s birth mother! She was the malicious woman he claimed to be scheming and manipulative, the one who played hard-to-get and stirred up discord!
