At this mont, he slowly recalled what had happened, filled with imnse regret and annoyance.
He had indeed been driven mad by today’s events, leading him to lose his senses. How could he have treated her so?
Damn it! Gu Shaocheng hamred his fist against the car window in anger.
He watched Chenxing, who was shaking violently, feeling utterly helpless and overwheld as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart...
For a while, all he could hear were Chenxing’s sobs and the bodyguards’ hushed breaths. Everyone watched the scared girl directly.
"I’m sorry." Eventually, Gu Shaocheng whispered an apology. He slowly crouched down again, trying to draw the frail girl into his arms, but Chenxing was backing away continually. Her terrified eyes stared his arms, plaintively pleading, "Don’t co any closer, don’t co..."
"There, there’s no need to be afraid," Gu Shaocheng’s voice was soft and soothing, worried that he might upset her again. But, all his attempts at gentleness were rebuffed.
How could she not be afraid?
Everyone would be in a bad mood or feel distraught if they were thrown out of a window callously. It wouldn’t be possible for anyone to claim they weren’t scared, even a bit.
No, she was terrified, and the shock hadn’t faded even now.
When she looked at Gu Shaocheng, she saw him as a predatory beast. For the first ti, she realized this man could be so terrifying. Even his voice was trembling with deep, enduring fear.
"I’m sorry, I frightened you," he apologized softly, guilt flooding his heart as he looked at her terrified and wary eyes. His amber eyes dimd considerably.
"Let carry you back to the car, and we can return to the hotel and talk things over, ok?" His voice was unusually gentle, tiptoeing around her fragile emotions.
In a mont of anger, he’d lost his head, being caught up in mories and unable to control himself, treated her so cruelly, "Chenxing, please don’t provoke anymore, don’t make angry, I don’t want to hurt you."
He adored her, wanted to caress her head gently, but Chenxing dodged his touch abruptly. Despite his soothing words, his actions had been cruel and irrational. She would never believe him again.
She raised her terrified eyes to et his.
Gone was the docility and dependence of previous days; her gaze was filled with deep wariness and caution.
She didn’t have a masochistic streak. She didn’t want to stay by this dangerous man’s side. This was her most genuine thought at the mont.
Gu Shaocheng saw all her emotions and felt even more guilt and regret. However, he would never let her leave him.
In a mont, both were at a loss about what to do with each other.
And so the stalemate continued.
Chenxing hugged her knees and breathed heavily. She really wanted to go ho, to cover her trembling body with a blanket. But there was nowhere in the world that she could call ho. Her heart ached at the thought, and tears started rolling down her cheeks again.
What should she do? What should she do?
After a pause, Gu Shaocheng stood up in frustration, and ran his hands through his hair restlessly.
Just then, Nan Baihao walked up to him, unsure of how to console. "Big brother, let take sister-in-law back to the hotel. Maybe you both should take so ti to cool off."
He wasn’t certain what had happened but had witnessed the stalemate. Since Chenxing didn’t want to be close to big brother now, it might be better to let her calm down.
