She just didn’t want to have children...
She just wanted to tell him to be gentle as it was painful...
She couldn’t fathom what she had done wrong that made him treat her this way and throw such a temper tantrum!
Chenxing sat up in humiliation, burying her head deep into the pillow. The saying that being in love is easy but living together is hard was indeed true.
For a while, she sat still.
She quietly listened to the sounds occasionally coming from the bathroom - the sound of things being thrown, mixed with the sound of running water.
Was he also unhappy?
Chenxing wiped the corner of her eyes, gathered trendous courage before putting on her pajamas and shoes. How could she not know? Her helpless posture was practically a slap in his face. To such a proud man like him, this silent refusal was more humiliating than slapping him.
Biting her lip, Chenxing walked to the bathroom door, took a few deep breaths, and knocked twice: "I’m sorry, I didn’t an to upset you. I was just not ready and felt pain. Despite telling you about it, you didn’t listen. I know you’re still upset about yesterday..."
Before she could finish, the bathroom door suddenly opened.
Gu Shaocheng stood in the doorway, naked. His entire face was void of any expression. His body was wet, with water droplets continuously falling from his soaked hair, making his stern face strangely attractive.
He lifted his head and t her pitiful eyes.
Without any expression.
They locked eyes for a full minute before sothing softened in his heart. He sighed quietly, "I was wrong too."
Chenxing’s eyes flickered as she took a step forward to hold his hand and appease his anger. But before she could say anything, his cold voice echoed again: "Get ready, we’re heading back to Canada today!"
Then the door closed again, separating her from him by a door.
At that mont, Chenxing couldn’t describe what she was feeling. She clenched her jaw, feeling as if it wasn’t just a wooden door that was blocking her, but a door to his heart.

In Canada, City E, as soon as Gu Shaocheng landed, he received a call from Nan Baihao.
"Brother, I just got a call from one of the guys. There’s news about Chenxing’s mom," Nan Baihao’s voice abruptly rang on the phone: "But, I’m currently at my wife’s hotown and can’t leave. Why don’t you handle it yourself."
Gu Shaocheng’s gaze fell on Chenxing, who was standing by the car, waiting for him.
Chenxing’s gaze also t his, but quickly avoided him the next second.
"Brother, are you listening to ? I suggest you go yourself and not delegate it to anyone else. I suspect there’s a mole in the Gu family, so keep it low key and don’t let too many people know about it. It happened like this the last few tis. We got the news, went to check on it, and it ended up a wild goose chase, definitely provided by the mole in the Gu family."
"Alright, I get it." Gu Shaocheng hung up, then signaled his subordinates and ordered: "Make sure she returns ho safely."
Then he turned around and went back to the airport lawn.
