Truth be told, Gu Mohan had never pondered about whether Tang Mo’er was still a virgin or not.
He was highly educated and had been through the vicissitudes of life.
Thus, he had seen much of the world and he had adopted an open mind about most things.
He was naturally not too bothered about whether one was still a virgin or not.

Take Jun Xiyan for example.
During their engagement, he did not stipulate that she had to be a virgin.

But, Tang Mo’er was not a virgin.

Tang Mo’er was not a virgin!

She was only 21 years old this year and she had ravishing and enchanting looks.
There were many men who were enamored by her, but he had never seen her get close to anyone before.
The only man that she liked was him.

He had always thought he was her only one.

Now, it seemed like he was not.

Who was her first man?

The thought of her taking off her clothes and lying with some other man engaging in intimate acts caused rage to grow within his muscular chest.

His large hand tugged on the tie around his neck, as if it could help him breathe more easily.
He knitted his brows and his handsome eyes reddened.

He stepped on the accelerator and the Rolls-Royce Phantom car sped off.

…

Bole Villa.

The female servant opened the main door and respectfully said, “Sir, you are back?”

The servant bent down and changed Gu Mohan’s shoes.

Gu Mohan strode into the living room.
At this moment, there was a barking sound, and Bluse ran out.

Bluse knelt near Gu Mohan’s feet and kicked its legs vigorously.

At this moment, there was a thud, as something was thrown in front of Bluse.

Bluse took a glance.
It was a doll and it belonged to Tang Mo’er.

Woof woof.

Bluse swiftly opened its mouth to bite on the doll.
Its paws clawed at the doll, as if it was a precious toy.

Gu Mohan looked down and glanced at Bluse.
He could not tell if Bluse liked the doll so much because it belonged to Tang Mo’er, or whether it was because of something else.

He walked towards the sofa and sat down.

He whipped out a pack of cigarettes as his handsome body leaned indolently against the sofa and he started to smoke.

He smoked two cigarettes.
It was already dark outside, it was seven o’clock at night.

At this point in time, the melodious sound of the cell phone ring tone was heard.
He had an incoming phone call.

His long fingers took out the cigarette dangling on his lips as he glanced down.
The caller ID on the phone showed ‘Tang Mo’er’.

So it was Tang Mo’er.

He did not answer.

On the other line, Tang Mo’er dialed his number two more times, after he did not pick up his phone, but still he still not answer.

His cell phone became quiet gradually.

He had just finished smoking the cigarette in his fingers when he had another incoming call.
This time, it was… Jun Xiyan.

“Hello.”

“Hello, Mohan,” Jun Xiyan’s pleasant voice came through.
“Are you free tonight? Let’s go for dinner.”

Gu Mohan bent down to put out the cigarette in the ashtray.
He did not say a word.

“Mohan, are you listening? Will you come?”

Gu Mohan curved his lips slowly.
“Sure, I will definitely go.”

…

A University.

At the hostel, Tang Mo’er had prepared everything which included the birthday cake and sweet glutinous dumplings.
It was a simple affair, but because Mr Gu would be celebrating her birthday with her, Tang Mo’er felt content.

However, Mr Gu had not answered when she dialed his cell phone number a couple of times.

She looked at the time, and it was already eight o’clock.
She dialed his number again, but there was the operator’s voice on the other line —- Sorry, the number you just called is unavailable.

What was Mr Gu doing?

Tang Mo’er lowered her luscious eyelashes.
She puffed up her cheeks on her exquisite face in disappointment.
Even if he was busy, he should have answered her calls.

How about going to look for Mr Gu?

Tang Mo’er exited the school main gate and dialed for a taxi.
She arrived at Bole Villa and was still in the car when she saw Mr Gu’s car from afar.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom was leaving the villa.

Ah, Mr Gu had come back!

Where was he going to now?

Was he going to A University to celebrate her birthday with her?

Tang Mo’er’s eyes were sparkling.
Should she not give him a surprise, in this case?

“Driver, please follow the luxurious car in front.”

…

The taxi came to a halt.
Tang Mo’er alighted from the car.

She raised her eyes and glanced.
It was not A University.
It was a western restaurant with a very nice ambiance.

She stood outside and peered through the full-length window.
Gu Mohan gentlemanly pulled out a chair for Jun Xiyan, and after that he sat down gracefully.
He undid the buttons on his black cashmere coat, passed it to the waiter, and waited for the waiter to bring over the menu.

It was unsure what Jun Xiyan was talking to him about, and he was listening to her.
The light in the restaurant was muted, and there was a red lighted candle on the table.
This was a romantic candlelight dinner.

The flickering flame illuminated both their faces, which appeared warm and harmonious.

Tang Mo’er startled.
She dazedly looked at Gu Mohan having dinner with Jun Xiyan.

Had he forgotten that it was her birthday today?

He had promised that he would celebrate her birthday with her.

Hadn’t he terminated the marriage contract with Jun Xiyan?

If not, then, what was she?

It was as if a tub of cold water had drenched Tang Mo’er from head to toe and extinguished all her sweet dreams.

At this moment, there was a growling sound.
Her stomach was growling.

She was hungry.

It was already nine o’clock at night.
She had been waiting for him and had not eaten anything all day.
So now her stomach growling awkwardly.

Through the full-length window, she could see the romantic candlelight, the steak and red wine.
While outside, she was here braving the cold wind, alone and desolate.

Tang Mo’er stood outside looking at them for a very long time, then turned around to return to A University.

…

At the hostel.

Tang Mo’er picked up her chopsticks and started to eat her sweet glutinous dumplings.
The dumplings had been soaked in water for too long and had turned icy-cold.

She was famished and thus, she ate one dumpling.

The sweet red bean filling of the dumpling entered her mouth.
Actually, it was not as sweet as she had thought it would be.
It tasted dreadful.

She put down her chopsticks and sat alone in front of the cake.
She lit the candle on the cake.

There was a sound as she turned off the lights in the hostel.
She sat in front of the cake, put her palms together, closed her eyes and began to make a wish.

But, she did not know what to wish for.

She had neither a mother nor a home.
She thought she had Mr Gu, but now Mr Gu was no more.

She suddenly realized that she did not have anything to wish for on her 22nd birthday.

The light from the candle made her shadow look elongated.
It was all quiet around her.
There was no one to wish her a happy birthday.
It was so quiet.

Her 22nd birthday was spent so quietly.

She was forgotten by the entire world.

She opened her eyes and blew all the candles.
She reached out to pick a piece of cake and placed it into her mouth.
She ate a piece of her own cake for her 22nd birthday.

It was really very quiet.

She could even hear a pin drop onto the floor.

“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to Mo’er…”

She sang herself a birthday song in a quiet voice.
After singing, she clapped for herself, but soon after, she felt a bitter taste in her mouth.
She stretched her hand out to touch.
There were tears all over her face.

The flame from the candle went out.
It was pitch black before her.

Like that, Tang Mo’er spent her 22nd birthday crying in the darkness.
