Chapter 226: Chapter 227: He Hopes She Could Fall in Love with Him

Having hope was good; what was fearful was having no hope at all. Now, she had lost all interest in life, and the only thing keeping her going was hope.

What she didn’t see was the faint smile that flickered through Gu Yixuan’s eyes as he gazed at the sea.

Mo Ran kept her word; she said she would get along well with him, and she indeed did.

Putting aside all resentment and grievances, she treated Gu Yixuan like a familiar stranger, chatting and laughing with him, no longer deliberately resisting his wishes.

Perhaps, she also wanted to leave herself some pleasant memories during this month. Otherwise, when she spoke to her child about their father in the future, her recollections would be nothing but unpleasant ones.

......................

At the seaside at night, Gu Yixuan had set up a bonfire and prepared all the materials to barbecue chicken wings.

Sitting on the carpet, Mo Ran looked hungrily at the fragrant chicken wings and swallowed, "Are they ready yet?"

"Almost, just wait a bit longer," Gu Yixuan said, glancing at her amusingly, a smile in his eyes.

He felt fortunate he had made the decision to get along with her for a month. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have realized, in these past few days, how gentle and adorable Mo Ran could be when she wasn’t angry or acting stubbornly.

He had always thought that she was too obstinate and unable to get along well with others. But he was wrong; he had simply never seen her kind and accommodating side.

The unguarded Mo Ran had almost no demands on life. Being with her felt comfortable, and he felt no pressure at all.

Having lived for so long, this was the first time he had lived without any pressure, just enjoying life was enough.

Seeing this side of Mo Ran, Gu Yixuan couldn’t possibly let her go.

However, he had also changed his mind; he no longer wanted to hurt her. He hoped she could fall in love with him and be with him forever, without holding any grudges.

That way, he could enjoy this comfort and happiness for a lifetime.

So, Ranran, in this month’s time, I must make you fall in love with me!

"Here, they’re ready. Be careful, it’s hot," Gu Yixuan handed her a skewer of chicken wings and instructed gently.

Mo Ran couldn’t wait to take them, eager to devour the chicken wing in one bite. It wasn’t that she was greedy, but because Gu Yixuan, wanting her to eat more chicken wings, had only allowed her to eat until she was seventy percent full at lunch.
