Yes, he messed up. He has always been so protective towards her, yet he couldn't handle the situation with Di Xiaxia appropriately.
"Stop talking, baby." Di Mingjue kissed her. "I'm sorry, it was all my fault. I promise it won't happen again, okay? I only love you, I only care about you, and I only dote on you. I promise you a lifetime of exclusive devotion, and sincere love. Can you stop being mad at me? It really hurts me when you're like this for the past few days. Gu Xiaoqi, can you please stop tormenting me?"
His voice was extremely hoarse, like sand that had been ground by a grinding wheel.
Tears from Gu Qibao kept flowing nonstop. As she looked at his handsome yet somewhat haggard face, all her grievances, all her sadness, all her longing, and all her care collapsed in an instant.
She hugged him, crying like a child, choking out the words, "Husband, I'm sorry."
I'm sorry, because I love you.
I'm sorry, because I'm so, so scared of losing you.
I'm so, so afraid.
