Chapter 241: Chapter 242: A Tragic Childhood
So many things, he buried deep in his heart, never expressing them. His words weren't lies; perhaps without the
Mo Ran of the past, he might have been so pained that he considered suicide.
If there weren't a glimmer of light in his life, he wouldn't have overceverything and stood up again.
The once-disabled child had regained hope for life because of her small gesture.

"Ranran, I'm telling you this not to win your sympathy, but to let you know how important you are to me."
"You're not Mrs. Gu’s child?" Mo Yan asked, as she had always thought that he and Gu Yicheng were blood
brothers.
Gu Yixuan shook his head. "No. My mother was a minor entertainer in the entertainment circle. After she met my
father, she was set on displacing his wife and marrying him. That's why she secretly conceivedand gave
birth toin secret, all to blackmail my father."
Such a clichéd plot, wasn’t it? Hadn't Mo Yan used the stactic?
Mo Yan thought of the child Mo Yan had lost. If that child had been born, would it have had a tragic childhood just

lost?

"That's okay, | will wait. In fact, not givingan answer is like givinghope. If you never respond toin
your lifetime, | have hope for a lifetime. Ranran, you don’t know, you are the only hope I have in this world. | was
wrong initially, | shouldn't have treated you that way, but that was the only method I could think of to keep you
by my side."
Mo Yan fell silent, unable to even utter words of rejection.
The pressure he put on her was immense; she was his only hope in this world.
