He didn't know if she was acting stubborn with him, and he couldn't understand how a woman could have so many tears and so much snot. A whole box of tissues was turned into clumps and recklessly thrown onto the carpet in the blink of an eye.
"Lift your face, look at me, admit that you're wrong, and promise not to make the same mistake again."
Chenxing ignored him and continued to wipe her nose. She bit her lips tightly, clenching her teeth so hard that she was afraid to let go for fear that she would burst into tears.
Even in a quiet room, her suppressed sobbing could not be concealed.
Gu Shaocheng tapped on the bed. "Did you hear me?"
Chenxing's body was shaking violently. Hearing his words, she closed her eyes as if thinking that doing so would allow her to escape her current reality.
The sound of her sobbing was frantic at first, then became calmer, then suddenly frantic again, and then calmer... like a tug-of-war.
"Can't you hear me?!"
