Chapter 355 Gu Mo Confesses His Love!
Xia Yue's belly is now big, and the passage is too narrow for her to pass through.
Even Shen Xiangxiang could only walk sideways.
When Anson built the secret passage, he dared not make it too large in order to keep it a secret.
"what to do?"
Shen Xiangxiang's eyes turned red with anxiety.
Xia Yue calmly accepted reality.
She said to Shen Xiangxiang, "You go ahead, I'll stay here and cover your retreat."
"No, if we have to leave, we'll go together, Yueyue, I won't leave you behind!" Shen Xiangxiang refused to leave.
Xia Yue coldly urged, "It's not that I don't want to leave, but this passage can't accommodate me. You are our last hope. Go find Qin Yeting for help, quickly!"
Shen Xiangxiang's eyes were red; she knew this wasn't the time to be stubborn.
However, she couldn't bear to abandon her friends like that.
"Yueyue, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..." Shen Xiangxiang's voice choked with sobs.
"Smack!"
Xia Yue slapped Shen Xiangxiang across the face.
It was the first time she had hit a friend, and she felt terrible afterwards.
Although she didn't hit hard enough and Shen Xiangxiang wasn't hurt, she still felt guilty.
Even so, she still had to say coldly, "Are you awake? If you are, then leave quickly!"
"yes……"
This time, Shen Xiangxiang finally didn't hesitate anymore.
She didn't want to hold her friend back any longer.
She entered the hidden passage and quickly left.
Xia Yue then closed the passageway, and everything in the room appeared normal, with no sign of anything amiss.
Outside, the search was drawing ever closer.
The door to this room is locked from the inside.
The people outside couldn't open the door, so they started ramming it!
"Thump—thump—thump—"
In just a few moments, the entire door was smashed away.
A familiar figure appeared in front of Xia Yue.
However, this person was not Gu Chen, but Gu Mo.
"Dr. X, you really are here." Gu Mo's tone was three parts surprise and seven parts seriousness.
Xia Yue raised an eyebrow and asked coldly, "Are you here to arrest me?"
"Of course not, you are my savior. If it weren't for your basic assisted treatment, I would still be in a wheelchair now." Gu Mo's tone was full of gratitude.
Xia Yue asked in confusion, "You're not one of Gu Chen's people?"
"Of course not, you've forgotten, I also have the surname Gu." Gu Mo's reply was quite meaningful.
Xia Yue understood.
He also shares the surname Gu, and was once the eldest son of the Gu family, the rightful heir to the Gu Group.
But Gu Chen stole the spotlight, leaving her breathless.
Now that he has such a good opportunity, he certainly won't let it slip by.
Xia Yue smiled helplessly.
They devised such a grand scheme, but only considered Gu Chen, forgetting that there were so many people in the Gu family who were eyeing them covetously.
Gu Mo's presence here indicates that Ansen and his team's plan has failed.
"Just tell me, what do you want?" Xia Yue was too lazy to beat around the bush.
Gu Mo said with utmost sincerity, "I want to take you away."
"Um?"
"Leave Broken Soul Island, leave Gu Chen."
I...I like you!
Gu Mo finally mustered up the courage to confess his feelings.
He had kept these words to himself for a long time.
The reason he didn't say it before was because he was just a cripple, a useless young master with only a title, and couldn't give Xia Yue happiness.
But now, he has the ability, so he's willing to take the gamble.
Xia Yue found the other person's words somewhat ridiculous.
She pointed to her stomach and said with some helplessness, "I'm pregnant, and I'm Qin Yeting's wife in the legal sense. I was also engaged to Gu Chen before."
"I don't care about any of that. All I know is that I like you!" Gu Mo continued to confess.
He walked up to Xia Yue and couldn't help but say, "I will never forget the focused look on your face when you were giving me acupuncture. I dream about you every night."
Dr. X, no, I want to call you Yueyue, please give me a chance.
I can take care of you, and your children too; I'll treat them as my own!
Xia Yue felt that this person was somewhat extreme.
Moreover, now is simply not the time to confess one's feelings or start a relationship.
She directly avoided Gu Mo's question and asked firmly, "Where is Gu Chen? Does he know?"
"I know, of course he knows I like you, that's why he's targeting me on purpose, but I'm no longer under his control!" Gu Mo quickly explained.
Xia Yue said helplessly, "What I'm asking is, does Gu Chen know I'm here? Does Gu Chen know what you've done?"
“No, he doesn’t know,” Gu Mo quickly replied. “He went to explore new mineral veins and won’t be back for another three days.”
"What about the others? Did you make things difficult for them?"
"No, I let them go and told them to go find Qin Yeting immediately."
I know they are all your friends, and you certainly wouldn't be happy if I went against them.
Gu Mo is an honest person.
He did not want to force Xia Yue using special means.
If he detained Xia Yue and threatened her to stay, his chances of winning would be much greater.
But he didn't do that.
Xia Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her friends were alright.
She looked at Gu Mo and said slowly, "Then let me go too, let me go find Qin Yeting. I am grateful for your affection, but all along, I have only regarded you as a friend."
If you truly respect me, please respect my choices as well.
Gu Mo was stunned for a moment, his expression stiffening.
He had expected Xia Yue to say that.
But when that moment actually arrived, he still felt very uncomfortable.
His eyes reddened, and he asked somewhat humbly, "Is there really absolutely no possibility?"
