At that time, Gu Qianqian was in a panic, trying to grab Lu Zhanbei's hand.
But recalling the disgusted expression on his face when he pushed her away earlier, her heart ached once more. She didn't dare to touch him again, so she just weakly tugged at his clothes. With tear-streaked face, she wept, "Lu Zhanbei, please don't be mad at me anymore, I... I know I was wrong..."
Lu Zhanbei typically disliked it when women cried and made a fuss, but Gu Qianqian was different.
This girl, when she cried, he felt something more than just annoyance. The scariest part was, every time she did, he felt a painful pang in his heart.
It was not disgust, it was heartache!
Furthermore, this heartache was intensely strong, so strong that he couldn't resist wrapping her in a hug, wanting to comfort her...
It was not what he wanted, but he couldn't help it.
