After wiping her face, Gu Nanqiao stood still, her hands laboriously supporting herself on the washstand, trying to steady herself.
Leave, she didn't want to. Stay, yet felt the need for some time to calm down.
Clearly knowing the truth but still holding back from speaking it out, this was unlike other things. If kept bottled up like this, one day it would suffocate her.
But she was about to give birth soon, how could Huo Jingting possibly let her go?
No matter what, he certainly wouldn't let her leave.
Huo Jingting hadn't seen her come out for a long time, he walked over and knocked on the bathroom door, "Still not done washing?"
"Finished." Gu Nanqiao responded quickly, "I'll be out soon."
She raised her gaze, her eyes landing on the mirror in front of her.
Her face was as pale as paper, still lacking color, and her eyes were conspicuously swollen. If it weren't for that reason, Huo Jingting would certainly notice something was wrong.
