Chapter 243: Chapter 244: A Thrilling Scene

If forgiveness was an option, why couldn’t she forgive him for the sake of their child? As long as the child was doing well, she could let go of those unhappy memories...

Mo Ran walked and pondered. Once she had worked some things out, she looked at Gu Yixuan.

He held her hand and tucked it into the pocket of his jacket, intentionally slowing his pace to match hers.

His profile was appealing; recently, he had stopped forcing her and losing his temper. His features had softened a lot, making him quite pleasant to look at.

Suddenly, Mo Ran had an idea that perhaps continuing to live like this with him wouldn’t be so bad after all.

There was a small stall across the street selling some nice-looking accessories, and Mo Ran wanted to go buy something.

She pulled her hand away from Gu Yixuan and said, "Let’s go take a look over there."

Without waiting for a response, she headed towards the opposite side of the street. It was a small town on the outskirts of W City, and the streets hardly had any vehicles. At this midday, there wasn’t a single one.

In the middle of the road, Mo Ran never expected a motorcycle to come roaring towards her.

She was stunned, unsure where to dodge.

"Be careful!" Gu Yixuan rushed over, grabbed her, and turned around, narrowly avoiding the motorcycle’s impact.

Then another motorcycle came, then three, then four...

They sped by quickly, each rider wearing a helmet, reminiscent of gang scenes in TV shows. Mo Ran, pale with fright, thought she was doomed.

Gu Yixuan appeared relatively composed. As motorcycles sped towards them, he didn’t panic. Just as they were about to get close, he hugged Mo Ran and suddenly turned around, dodging the vehicles with agile movements, evading one after another.

With swift agility, he brought Mo Ran back to the sidewalk in mere moments, leaving onlookers awe-struck and sweating from the scare.

After the motorcycles had passed, the street returned to its peaceful state, as if the harrowing moment had never happened.

A bystander commented, "Was that a racing team or something?"

How could they race on the streets of a small town? It seemed that public safety was getting worse by the year.

Still shaken, Mo Ran leaned against Gu Yixuan, her hands clutching his clothes tightly. If it hadn’t been for him, she would have been hit and killed!

Just the thought of the scene as he risked his life to save her made her heart unable to calm down for a long time.

Gu Yixuan frowned and glanced in the direction where the motorcycles had gone, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes.
