Huo Jingting cast one last glance at her and then left reluctantly.
Alone in the room, Gu Nanqiao heard the door closing, only then did she throw back the blankets and sit up.
She reached for the glass of water on the bedside table, took a few sips. The temperature was just right, not hot, not cold.
After finishing the water, she put the glass back and lifted her eyelids to look toward the door.
With an expressionless face, she pondered for a long time; in the end, the root cause was a misunderstanding.
Huo Jingting had made a mistake, but it wasn't unforgivable.
Moreover, she knew his temper somewhat; he did go overboard when angry, but now, having cooled down, he was again docile, not showing any of the previous signs, and still obeyed her in everything.
Besides, the real reason he lost his temper was because he cared about her, but his temperament was too extreme, so the actions he took were inevitably a bit extreme, causing physical and emotional hurt to her.
