During the time that Gu Xingze had left her, she had been so consumed by guilt and pain that she had momentarily neglected Mu Yazhe's feelings.
At that time, she was in a confused state. She was so fully indulged in the pain she felt that she was constantly focused on it. Little did she realize that he was also carefully protecting her.
Every time she woke up from a nightmare, he would be by her bedside, busy comforting her emotions, wiping away her cold sweat, and coaxing her to sleep.
When her emotions were at their lowest, he held the bowl, repeatedly persuading her and coaxing her to eat.
She couldn't see how nervous he was.
But in her semi-consciousness sometimes, she would always feel that he was by her bedside, holding her hand gently, never letting go.
She had no awareness of his sufferings, much less his pain.
He was not good with words, nor was he good at expressing.
