Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng's angry expression and gently tried to pacify her, "It's my fault, calm down."
Gu Qingcheng was indeed angry, and quite intensely so.
But that didn't mean she lost her reason. Seeing Huo Sicheng's sincere apology in his eyes, she felt a pang of sympathy for him.
She knew all too well that Huo Sicheng, always seen as superior by others, never apologized to anyone. Yet, he always apologized to her. It was impossible for her not to feel compassion for him, especially since he was the man she deeply loved.
"I'll give you a chance to explain," she said coldly to Huo Sicheng, "You better convince me, or I won't calm down."
Huo Sicheng understood Gu Qingcheng. He knew that her decision to stay and calmly give him a chance to explain was already a rare opportunity.
"My reason for saving Qin Chong is the same as yours for keeping Gu Mei and her daughter alive."
