It was not that Gu Zi wanted to make a fuss, but she always felt that something stood in between them, making it difficult for them to truly become intimate.
Perhaps it had something to do with the way they got acquainted and married. After all, Gu Zi was a substitute bride for Su Shen. It seemed like they were married, but in reality, they were not that familiar with each other. Much of the process was blank.
Suddenly, Su Shen realized something. He pulled her into his arms and gently said, "I'm sorry I shouldn't have refused your help to wipe my sweat. I won't do it again."
Su Shen's original intention was not to get her dirty, but since it had upset Gu Zi, he admitted his mistake and promised to correct it.
Seeing that he had realized the problem, Gu Zi looked up at him and said, "I am your wife, don't be afraid to get me dirty. If I despised you, why would I marry you? Marrying you means accepting everything about you."
