He almost never smoked in front of her, and would avoid her even if he smoked once in a while. This showed that he was in a very bad mood.
Nevertheless, sensing he yi approaching, he put out the half-smoked cigarette, threw it into the nearby garbage can, took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, and stuffed it into his mouth.
This small action caused he Yi’s heart to ache. He always carried gum with him, which undoubtedly meant that he had been smoking at all times recently. He was afraid that she would notice the smell of cigarettes in his mouth, so he always carried gum with him, because he didn’t have the habit of chewing gum before.
It was obvious that he had been in a terrible mood recently.
But he had always concealed his bad mood in front of her, never took it out on her, and never showed any pessimism or decadence in front of her. This man had a good ability to control his emotions!
