Just as he was about to step forward, she took a small step back.
The bell on the ankle made a crisp sound.
The voice that used to be extremely ambiguous became eerie and cold at this moment.
Mo Heng's body froze and he slowly took a step back.
"I won't come forward, please don't move."
The man who was always calm now had a vibrato in his voice.
Gu Ruojiao just looked at him and kept staring at him.
——I don’t want to hate you.
She opened her mouth.
--I love you.
——But you don't love me.
"I love you!"
——No, you don’t love it.
She shook her head gently, her eyes filled with sadness.
——You don’t believe me at all, you just want me to hate you.
There were tears in her eyes.
Because her vision was blurred, her figure was a little swaying.
Mo Heng's heart was in his throat.
"No..."
He wanted to deny it, but he remembered his extremely hurtful words.
While he hurt her fiercely, he also deliberately said those words to keep her.
But those words dug into her heart every time.
It was he who forced her to this point.
Why does it become like this.
He obviously wanted to cherish her and love her.
But now it was him who had bruised her body with his own hands and forced her to leave him.
Mo Heng knew that letting go was what he should do.
But he really can't do it!
He had been looking for her for so long, and he had been alone for such a long time. Relying on this only obsession, he climbed up desperately to the top, and finally found her.
How can I give up...
However, he ruined it all with his own hands.
Mo Heng suddenly covered his face and laughed sadly.
He lived two lives, but still couldn't get what he wanted.
He will eventually lose everything, including her love for him.
"I'll let you go."
After the laughter, he endured the pain and crying in his heart and his eyes turned red.
"Gu Ruojiao, I'll let you go. I'll give you the freedom you want."
It doesn't matter if she leaves him, as long as she is still alive in this world, as long as she can see her, even just a glance from a distance is enough.
"I love you forever."
He stepped back while looking at her, his eyes full of reluctance and strong love for her.
But when he saw his little girl, she jumped down, ran towards him crying, and threw herself into his arms.
His body stiffened for a moment, and then he hugged her tightly and forcefully.
The little girl's dense and angry fists fell on his back, and she made small sobbing sounds.
Tears stained his clothes.
But Mo Heng never let go of her, he just hugged her tightly and allowed her to vent her anger and resentment.
*
In the bedroom.
Gu Ruojiao raised her little face, which was red from crying, and asked Mo Heng to wipe away the tears on her face.
The wet and cool cloth was applied to his face, slightly relieving the throbbing pain in his forehead.
She sniffed and reached out to him for a hug.
Mo Heng held her on his lap and gently kissed the corner of her mouth.
"Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
She grabbed his hand in grievance and pressed it on her forehead.
Mo Heng knew it was caused by crying too hard.
"I'll ask the imperial doctor to bring some cooling ointment."
Gu Ruojiao shook her head.
——No, I want you.
Mo Heng did not insist.
He asked her to lie on his lap and kneaded her with very light force.
After squeezing for a while, Gu Ruojiao stopped.
She climbed up and sat astride his lap, wrapping her arms around his waist and staying close to him without moving.
Mo Heng looked at her blankly for a while.
He wanted to hug her back, but he was afraid that she wouldn't like it.
He heard her moaning dissatisfied and squeamishly, asking him to hug her.
Mo Heng hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but reached out and hugged her back.
