Mu Lan looked nervously at Huo Tingxiao, her suggestive eyes already very telling.
But unexpectedly...
"No."
Mu Lan was dumbfounded; was this man sick? Couldn't he see that she was hinting at him? Why would he still choose to say no?
"Mom, don't listen to..."
"Lanlan, don't talk, I want to hear him out."
Shen Ying's voice was gentle, yet it carried an undeniable firmness.
Mu Lan glared at Huo Tingxiao, obviously signaling a 'dare to speak nonsense, and I'll never forgive you' attitude.
But Huo Tingxiao really had the guts; not only did he dare to talk nonsense, but he also spoke with great skill, taking the blame on himself.
"It's all my fault for making Mu Lan upset.
In the past, it was always her who gave everything for me unreservedly, giving up her dreams, giving up herself.
And at that time, my mind was only on my career, completely neglecting her thoughts and feelings.
I'm sorry I didn't fulfill my duties as a husband, it's me who didn't take good care of her."
