Ditsy Wife: Mysterious Husband is Unfathomable-Chapter 23

I Want to Hang On to You

Gong Mo inhaled deeply and said huffily, “You’re really something!”

“I’m not as bad as your ex-boyfriend…” Sheng Nanxuan grabbed her hand and inspected her ring finger. How large should her wedding ring be?

Gong Mo knew that he was talking about Sheng Donglin and remembered the video she had recorded. She asked, “Did you know that your big brother wants to do harm to you? Thats why he sent me… he sent me to your room.”

“I know that.” He played with his finger and responded calmly, “I just graduated from university. My plan was to stay in the capital, but my former father asked me to come back. The Sheng Corporation decided to open a branch medicinal company in the capital that will be managed by Sheng Donglin and he was afraid that I would be a threat to his power in the family, so he had to get rid of me. This way, he won’t need to worry about anything else in the future.”

“So you knew all about it!” A surprised Gong Mo then asked, “Why did you come back if you knew this was going to happen? Why did you fall into his trap willingly? Do you know how much you harmed me because of that!”

“I only understood what he was trying to do when I entered the room and saw you. I’m his blood brother, so I didn’t expect him to do this to me. But it was lucky that I came back or something worse might have happened to you. You were drugged that night, after all.”

Fear seized Gong Mo. If she hadn’t been drugged that night, she would definitely have realized that the person next to her wasn’t Donglin. So that meant that… if the person had not been Sheng Nanxuan she would never have been drugged.

“Trust me, he was only with you because he wanted to use you. He doesn’t like you one bit. If it weren’t for me that night, you might have been r*ped by another man or even multiple men.”

Upon thinking about what could have happened, a wave of hatred rose in Sheng Nanxuan’s heart and he couldn’t help but clench his fist. He would definitely get Sheng Donglin back for what he did to his Gong Mo!

Gong Mo exhaled in pain.

Sheng Nanxuan released his hand immediately and caressed it gently. “You’re lucky to have met me. If it were someone else, they might not be willing to take responsibility for you.”

“Other people wouldn’t try to hang onto me like that!”

Sheng Nanxuan laughed. “Hang on to you? That’s a good way of expressing it. I want to hang onto you.”

Gong Mo stared at him incredulously. This guy was nuts!

...

Mama Gong used to work in a clothing factory. After Papa Gong went missing, she kept getting harassed by the factory manager, so she quit and started her own business. She owned a clothing retail business now. She had started out with a street stall at first and it grew into a brick-and-mortar store. She used to sell women’s clothes, and Big Uncle’s wife, Third Uncle’s wife, and Little Aunt always went there to buy clothes. They always demanded discounts but were never happy with them until the clothes were given to them for free! ƒ𝐫𝒆e𝓌𝒆𝚋𝗻૦𝘷𝑒𝙡. 𝑐𝘰𝐦

After that, Mama Gong started selling children’s clothing. When she first started, Third Uncle’s children were already grown up and could not wear children’s clothes. Because Third Uncle’s children had no children of their own yet, they could not take advantage of her either.

The children’s clothing shop was located outside the neighborhood so Gong Mo had to pass it every time she went home. She led Sheng Nanxuan inside shyly. Other than Mama Gong, there was a shop assistant in the store.

The pair walked over. Mama Gong tugged at Gong Mo and asked, “You’re off work? It’s not even 5 o’clock yet. Why are you off so early?”

The shop assistant asked Sheng Nanxuan, “Would you like to buy children’s clothes? Are you buying for your child or as a gift? Is it for a boy or a girl?”

Gong Mo noticed that her voice sounded sweeter than usual. Turning around, she found the assistant staring infatuatedly at Sheng Nanxuan and understood what was happening immediately. Sheng Nanxuan was a lady-killer and the assistant must have fallen under his spell.

Sheng Nanxuan looked towards Gong Mo’s abdomen. “I’m not sure yet.”

Upon hearing this, Gong Mo tried to kick him.

Mama Gong was shocked. “What are you doing? The customer is God!”
