...
Xu Wennuan had the most peaceful sleep she'd had over the past year. If her urge to visit the toilet hadn't forced her to wake up, she would have wanted to sleep for a much longer time. Her first waking thought was to open her eyes and sit upright; however, before she could move, she felt her hand being enveloped in a larger one. Her heart jerked, and the following second brought the realization that it belonged to Lu Bancheng.
She had a nightmare last night, and even cried. It was Lu Bancheng that coaxed her to sleep… Did he just stay by her bedside all night?
Before Xu Wennuan could fully comprehend this possibility, Lu Bancheng's low and gentle voice drifted to her. "Nuannuan, the truth is, there's something I've wanted to tell you for more than a year now..."
A year ago! Isn't that when we were divorced?
Xu Wennuan shut her eyes, feigned sleep, and did not react.
A few seconds later, Lu Bancheng spoke again. "I'm sorry."
