Chapter 431: Chapter 432 Cold War Erupts 5

It seemed that every time, his methods were wrong.

Ranran, tell me, what do I have to do to make you willingly stay forever?

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

And so, Mo Ran continued to stay. She still lived in the master bedroom, but Gu Yixuan no longer dared to move in with her; instead, he slept in the adjacent second bedroom.

Every day, Mo Ran got up on time, went downstairs for meals, took a walk in the garden, and did whatever needed to be done.

Gu Yixuan sat on the sofa in the living room every day, working from morning till night.

He didn’t go to the office, just stayed at home dealing with matters.

The two of them didn’t speak to each other or even glance at one another.

But occasionally, the maids would notice that when Mo Ran was swinging in the garden, Gu Yixuan, who sat in the living room, would lie on the sofa facing the direction of Mo Ran.

Only a huge floor-to-ceiling window separated them, its glass shiny and clear, allowing anyone in the living room to have a clear view of everything in the garden.

Gu Yixuan was not looking at Mo Ran; he held a document in his hands, his eyes fixated on a certain point, occasionally turning a page.

Everyone thought he really wasn’t watching Mo Ran.

When Mo Ran stood up and stopped swinging, he couldn’t help but look up, foolishly gazing at her figure. As soon as she turned around, his gaze would precisely fall back to the document.

The maids realized that in his heart, Gu Yixuan actually cared a lot about Mo Ran, but he couldn’t lose face, so he could only watch her secretly.

Mealtime was even more silent.

Mo Ran sat at one end, Gu Yixuan at the other, the distance between them substantial. Mo Ran would quietly finish her meal and then go upstairs.

Initially, Gu Yixuan ate slowly, but once Mo Ran was done, he would quickly finish as well.

When Mo Ran went out, Gu Yixuan would follow behind, maintaining a distance of one meter. The two of them didn’t say a word all the way, their behavior quite strange.

These days of cold war made the villa so quiet that no one dared to utter a word for many days.

Mo Ran was determined not to talk to Gu Yixuan, and Gu Yixuan couldn’t bring himself to initiate conversation with her.

The two of them continued this standoff, waiting to see who would relent first.

A few days later, Gu Yixuan realized that Mo Ran was indeed planning to stay and had no intention of leaving, only then did he gradually feel relieved and didn’t feel the need to stay at home every moment.
