Soon, the servant put away everything and even took away the lampshade of the lamp.

After everyone was gone, Shangguan Mo calmed down a lot. He squatted down and looked at Murong Xue who sat on the bed. "Xue, do you love me?" He asked with caution.

Murong Xue turned her head away. Even looking at him made her a little disgusted. She may love him, but she was not a person without self-esteem. She would never lose herself in love as she had done in her previous life.

"D*mn it. Answer me!"

However, Murong Xue still remained motionless. What did he want her to say? What would he do after she said that she loved him? He never gave her the explanation that she wanted. And they were not equal in this relationship. In this case, she had nothing to say.

Shangguan Mo's black eyes were fixed on her. A touch of pain flashed in his eyes, and then he raised her chin and kissed her lips.

"Emm..." Murong Xue was caught off guard and pushed him away subconsciously but Shangguan Mo held her tightly in his arms and kissed her deeply. The passionate kiss carried strong affection and catharsis.

Murong Xue struggled hard. But after feeling his burning and forbearing breath, she slowly went soft and let her feelings vent. Their lips pressed against each other passionately like the complicated entanglement of their relationship.

After a long while, the two of them gradually stopped. Murong Xue gently gasped for breath, felt soft-hearted, and asked again in a soft voice, "Mo, tell me why. As long as you say it, I will believe you."

Shangguan Mo's eyes flickered. He wanted to say something but then held back, "I..."

Murong Xue's eyes lit up and flashed with expectation. Shangguan Mo was silent for a moment before he said, "I went to have a meal with her that day because there was a reason that I had to do this. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would be angry. I didn't love her like a girlfriend. I swear..." He really had a reason, but he couldn't let her know that.

Murong Xue's face darkened, but she tried to believe him. Although the reason sounded far-fetched, Shangguan Mo didn't look like he was lying. Maybe he really had some difficulties. "Then why didn't you avoid it when she kissed you?" She asked what she cared about most. She couldn't stand the way that her man made out with another woman even if it was just a kiss on the cheek.

Shangguan Mo sat down on the bed, gently carried Murong Xue in his arms, and said slowly, "You know, Bai Xueli is an orphan growing up at my home. She has always been kind and sensitive. However, not everyone in the Shangguan Family is so kind. When she was a child, she liked to stick to me. Relatively speaking, Bai Xueli and I are more like the real brother and sister. Besides, she took a bullet for me before, so I always feel deeply guilty about her in my heart. If I can, I don't want to hurt her. Xue, can you give me a little more time?"

"But you can't let her kiss you. It will only make her more reluctant to let go of you. And it's obvious that she doesn't only treat you like a brother, and I think you should also notice it..." Murong Xue admitted that she was upset, especially when she knew that she couldn't get involved in their relationship which had been lasting since childhood.

"Yes, I find it... I don't know when she started to have such thoughts, but Xue, you can rest assured that I will take care of it. It only takes three months. Can you believe me?"

Murong Xue frowned and asked, "You have always wanted me to believe you. But since you have a clear conscience, what do you want me to believe? Or is there anything you are not telling me?" She thought that Shangguan Mo had been acting weird since that day.

"No, you just need to believe me. No matter what you find, you just need to believe that you are the only one I love." A look of worry flickered across his face when she couldn't see it.

"Well, but I won't forgive you if I find out you lied to me again."

Shangguan Mo was flustered, so he hurriedly asked, "What if I have to lie because I don't have a choice?"

Shangguan Mo really hid something from her. If he hadn't, he wouldn't have asked such a question. She stared at him for a long time before saying, "It depends, but I can't allow betrayal in our relationship. This is the bottom line."

"I only love you. It'll never change!"

Murong Xue still forgave him soft-heartedly. She loved him. Although she never said it, her love was no less than his for her. Only after experiencing an unforgettable betrayal, she was more determined than him.

"Can you let me go now? Are you going to lock me here if I don't forgive you?" Speaking of this, Murong Xue was a bit disappointed. She was his girlfriend. Was he going to force her because he couldn't get her?

"Xue, I'm only afraid of losing you." Every time she said that she wanted to break up, he couldn't control himself. He couldn't lose her.

Murong Xue sighed slightly, took the initiative to hug him, and then said gently, "You haven't spent time with me for a long time. Stay with me today!"

Shangguan Mo's eyes lit up. "OK, where do you want to go?" He would do everything he could as long as she wanted.

"Nowhere. We just stay here."

Shangguan froze, "Here?"

"Yeah, here. You don't seem to have rested for a long time, neither do I. Sleep with me!" Murong Xue said with a smile. She noticed his exhaustion as soon as she met him, and she felt very distressed.

"Okay." Shangguan Mo also gave a big smile. Just a simple sentence could make him feel so warm. It was true that only she could make his broken heart feel alive.

This time, they both slept soundly, and it was not until the evening that Shangguan Mo slowly woke up. He glanced at Murong Xue sleeping beside him. He could tell from her pale face that she was not having a good time these days. After all, he hurt her. No wonder she suddenly hung up that day. It turned out that she saw them.

He kissed her lips gently and then left quickly. He was afraid of waking her, so he only watched her quietly. It seemed that he was so fascinated by her that he couldn't see enough. It was not until his cell phone rang that he quickly hung up and looked at Murong Xue. He was relieved to find that she still slept soundly.

He glanced at the notification of missed calls that were from Bai Xueli. His face changed. He gently got out of bed and walked far away from the room before he called her back.

"What's the matter?" Shangguan Mo's tone sounded slightly impatient.

Bai Xueli's hand holding the mobile phone tightened. She felt that Shangguan Mo was getting bored of her. Despite this, she still had to do this. Otherwise, even if Shangguan Mo didn't hate her, she would still lose him. In that case, even if he would hate her, she still needed to make him remember her. "Mo, come and stay with me."

"I'm not available now." Shangguan Mo frowned and said. He didn't want to stay with her at all. He didn't know when his younger sister who used to make him feel lovely became an unspeakable complex existence for him.

"Mo, if that's the case, I'd better tell Xue about it. What do you think?" When she said that, her heart also hurt. But what should she do? She thought that if she didn't threaten Shangguan Mo, he wouldn't be willing to see her at all.

"You... I'll be right there." Shangguan Mo endured his impatience, and Bai Xueli's continuous actions made his guilt gradually disappear.

Shangguan Mo rushed all the way to find Bai Xueli. On the way, he kept thinking about how to solve the problem about her. What Murong Xue said today made him deeply feel that she had reached the limit of her patience. After all, it was his fault.

Bai Xueli waited at the door long ago and greeted him happily when catching sight of Shangguan Mo, "Mo, you came. I miss you so much."

Shangguan Mo looked at her coldly, shook off her hand, and walked inside.

Bai Xueli didn't mind his attitude, either. She knew that Shangguan Mo was not willing to come, but so what? He was here anyway. She hurriedly followed him.

Shangguan Mo sat in the living room and took out a cigarette. The strong smell of smoke slowly calmed his mood. It took him a long time to say to Bai Xueli sitting next to him, "Xueli, you should abort the baby."

Bai Xueli's eyes widened as she couldn't believe it. "Mo, what did you say? That's your child, and you cruelly want me to abort it."

"But you also know that I love Xue, and I can't give you happiness." How could she be pregnant? It was an accident, but it brought the last thing he wanted to see in the world.

Shangguan Mo knew Murong Xue's character. If she knew that Bai Xueli was pregnant with his child, she would definitely stay away from him and go to a place he couldn't reach. How dare he tell her that Ms. Fang called him in a hurry that day and told him that Bai Xueli was pregnant? It was a bolt from the blue at that time. When he arrived at the hospital in disbelief, Bai Xueli actually told him her joy with a happy look.

He couldn't utter a word at that time, and he was completely dumbfounded. After a long time, his first reaction after coming to his senses was that he couldn't let Murong Xue know about this. He wanted Bai Xueli to abort the child at that time. He couldn't let this accident ruin the relationship that he and Murong Xue tried so hard to make up.
