As long as it was within his power.
Yet, Chunxue never said a word to him, instead silently enduring and doing all sorts of foolish things, which left Gong Heng with a bitter taste in his heart.
Chunxue's mother was the daughter of a wealthy family, and her father had married into the family. If Chunxue's mother hadn't met with an accident, her father would have lived his life tiptoeing around Chunxue's mother's mood.
Now...
Chunxue's mother was dead.
And that was how Chunxue ended up in this state.
Her maternal grandfather's family's power had also begun to wane, no longer able to control her father.
Chunxue was now utterly alone.
If it weren't for that accident back then...
Gong Heng had an undeniable responsibility.
So helping Chunxue was the right thing to do, and it was her unwillingness to ask for help that troubled Gong Heng.
This was a kind of situation where you wanted to throw it off, but you couldn't.
