Chu Mucheng's gaze was deep yet filled with a faint smile.
At this moment, the little woman in front of him clearly felt wronged, yet she was unwilling to admit it.
Alright, she had her pride too...
He gently lifted her chin, gazing into her eyes.
"These past few days, there was work at the company. I went abroad for business, only got back this morning... Yesterday, after I finished my work, I wanted to call you. But when I looked at the time, you should've been sleeping, so I didn't call! Because I was afraid of disturbing your rest."
As Chu Mucheng's words fell, Tao Zhixiang stared at him in a daze.
Was that the case?
Chu Mucheng hadn't come because he went abroad for business?
Seeing her shocked expression, Chu Mucheng continued, "Do you believe me when I say this?"
Tao Zhixiang felt an intense tremor in her heart, and her mind seemed to be swirling with tidal waves, preventing her from calmly thinking, leaving her only to gaze at him.
