Gu Shaoting was ecstatic when he heard Shu Pan’s agreement.
His foul mood had finally disappeared.
He couldn’t help but walk up and hold Shu Pan’s hand. He then said, “Honey, I’m really sorry that I’ve caused you so much unhappiness lately.”
Actually, Gu Shaoting realized now that it wasn’t such a big deal. What was more important than their relationship as husband and wife? He should have asked Charlene to go home long ago and not let Shu Pan get upset.
But why was he so blind and stubborn? He played hard ball with Shu Pan just to uphold his male pride…
Gu Shaoting held his forehead and squeezed Shu Pan’s hand.
Shu Pan felt the pain and pouted, “You’re crushing my hand. It hurts.”
Hearing Shu Pan’s protest, Gu Shaoting came to his senses. He loosened his grip on her hand and held her in his arms.
It seemed to be a while since he hugged her.
Only now did things feel real.
Gu Shaoting recalled his recent behavior and felt ashamed. There was tension at work every day because of him. Everyone stayed as far as they could from him.
But he didn’t even think that it was his fault.
What was even more ridiculous was him pretending that he had business functions after work and said that he would be home late when he was actually working in the office. He had deliberately worked late to avoid going home.
But the frustrating thing was that even when he went home late, Shu Pan was indifferent. He felt like he was running in circles.
After a few tries, he got tired of his one-man show.
The fear in his heart deepened day by day because cracks in a relationship would only grow bigger with time.
He was also worried that he would make things worse. That was not his intention.
Therefore, he quickly apologized. A man’s apology to a woman only showed his magnanimity, not the loss of his dignity or pride.
He should have understood this principle long ago. Then, he wouldn’t have to go through so much trouble.
“Do you know what bothered me most? It was your attitude. I know that you have no feelings for her but she was interested in you. Didn’t you know that? Or were you just turning a blind eye, assuming that everything was fine? Do you know that you’ve actually given her the opportunity to destroy our relationship?” Shu Pan looked at him affectionately.
Gu Shaoting was stunned. He didn’t think deeply about this at all. Men were more careless and seldom looked at relationship problems so carefully.
“I know. I’ll definitely put you first in the future. I really didn’t think too much about it. I felt that it was fine as long as I was faithful to you. I just treated her like any other junior. My heart is actually very small. It can only hold you and no one else.” Gu Shaoting took the opportunity to profess his love for Shu Pan.
Shu Pan’s cheeks instantly flushed red. She did not expect him to say that.
“Let’s see how you do in the future. If you are still like that, I won’t forgive you.” Shu Pan declared solemnly.
Gu Shaoting saw Shu Pan’s serious expression and nodded.
“I understand. I promise I won’t do it again.” Gu Shaoting raised his hand to his temple and made a swearing gesture.
Shu Pan looked at him with a firm gaze. She didn’t flinch at all or look guilty.
Shu Pan thought about it and decided to put him on probation first. She would tell him about the pregnancy only when time was right.
