1034 Can You Forgive Me? 5 (1/2)
On the way, he kept asking himself why he was rushing home. He had no answer until he pushed open the door and saw Cheng Qingchong squat down to untie his shoes for him. He realized that he wanted to come home because he wanted to share the joy with her.
He wanted to tell her that he had just gotten the investment from Golden Wings, his company products were going out to the market, and his company was going to be saved.
When he realized the truth of his thought, his heart was filled with anxiety just like how he felt when he escaped in a hurry that morning. He moved his gaze away from her all flustered. After changing the shoes, he dashed into the bedroom and then the shower.
During the shower, he managed to calm himself down.
The warm water evoked the accumulated exhausted from his many days of endless nights. When he got out of the shower, he was so tired that he collapsed into bed without even drying his hair.
When she came over to patiently and kindly help him dry his hair… it caused his heart to turn with emotions once more. Losing control, he pulled her into his embrace and even mumbled so many heartfelt words to her.
He thought that by telling her what was hiding inside his heart under the pretext of drunkenness, he would feel much better since the stuff would have left his system. However, he ended up not only kissing her but also uttering her name.
He was made scared by himself. His mind was a mess. Perhaps he was afraid that she might see the chaos in his heart, or perhaps he might end up regretting the cruelty that he had put her through. In any case, he was scared. He hated feeling scared, so without thinking about it, he went for the cruelest action to make this end as soon as possible.
In a move that shamed even himself, he called out Song Song's name.
He believed that her heart would have died already.
He believed that, after Mrs. Cheng left tomorrow, there would be nothing left between them anymore.
