This sudden apology contained many layers of meaning. It seemed that she was apologizing for eavesdropping on her call, but it also seemed that she was very upset about her child's negligence.
However, it also triggered the anger in her. She clenched her teeth hard and then slowly loosened them. After going back and forth several times, she finally suppressed the anger in her heart that wanted to roar.
"Mr. Gu, why do you need to apologize? We don't have this kind of relationship yet." Wan Qianqian tried to fool him into apologizing.
However, how could Gu Tanfeng not hear the hidden meaning in her words? She did not accept his apology, but also clearly stated the distance between the two of them. This made Gu Tanfeng's heart ache, but he couldn't say a word.
When he reacted, Wan Qianqian was walking past him. Gu Tanfeng subconsciously reached out his hand and clasped her arm tightly. When he wanted to explain, he was pushed away by the power from her slender arm.
"I thought we had already made it clear when we were in London." Wan Qianqian coldly snorted and stabbed the knife into his heart again without any hesitation. She didn't show any mercy and didn't care that his heart was stabbed into a bloody mess.
After leaving this sentence, Wan Qianqian walked downstairs. She forced herself to ignore the pain in her heart and the sadness in her eyes. When she returned to the living room, her bright eyes were full of clarity.
"Bang!" A loud noise came from upstairs, shocking everyone in the living room. Other than Xin Yi, everyone's gaze moved back and forth between her and the upstairs, their faces full of confusion and questioning.
"It's nothing, it's just a terminal illness." The sound still lingered in every corner of the house. Being seen by those passionate eyes, she felt a little guilty. She touched her nose angrily and tried to explain the situation of someone who was angry upstairs in a relaxed tone. As a result, she was met with a lot of supercilious looks.
After the sound, there was silence. No one came down from upstairs. This moment was particularly strange.
"Did he hit his head against the wall?" Wen Yuen swallowed quietly. Her voice was even more trembling as she boldly guessed the situation upstairs.
As if to give her a response, a sound came from upstairs, causing everyone to heave a sigh of relief.
Wan Qianqian rolled her eyes and changed the topic. "Oh right, why didn't I see Xu Changjun after coming back? Where is he? "
Speaking of this, Wen Yuen suddenly let out an "ah" and then quietly answered her, "Two days before you came back, he said he had to go to the head office in the United States to deal with an urgent matter, but he didn't say when he would be back."
In fact, Wan Qianqian's mind was focused on upstairs and didn't pay attention to what Wen Yuen said, but she still pretended to understand and nodded.
After another five minutes, there was another sound from upstairs. The heavy footsteps of shoes hitting the floor hit everyone's heart, and their eyes were once again attracted to the upstairs.
They saw a slightly lonely and disheveled figure appear at the door of her room. The stray hair on his forehead was messy, and his deep eyes seemed to have been robbed of their luster. Every step he took seemed to require endless energy to support him.
"How did you do this to a person who was perfectly fine?" Wen Yuen's voice was full of regret, and there was a hint of blame in it, as if she had done something terribly wrong.
This accusation was very heavy on her head. She was surprised, and a trace of guilt actually grew in her heart. As a result, she cowardly looked away and didn't dare to look at him again.
Gu Tanfeng's eyes seemed to be unfocused as he looked forward, and his footsteps didn't slow down at all as he walked towards the door. Xin Yue, who had been struggling on the sofa for a long time, finally ran towards Gu Tanfeng with her two short legs. She used her delicate little hands to hold Gu Tanfeng's, and her eyes were filled with complicated emotions. "Daddy, are you leaving?"
"Mm, listen to Mommy and take good care of your sister." Gu Tanfeng's footsteps finally slowed down a little, and he used his thick palm to gently rub his little head.
Just like that, Gu Tanfeng left, and she suffered the consequences of being scolded and rolled her eyes at from afar.
For the next few days, Wen Yuen whispered in her ears about her crimes, and tried her best to dig out the guilt that had been buried deep in her heart. There were several times when she hesitated to call Gu Tanfeng to apologize, but in the end, she suppressed it.
In the blink of an eye, half of the eight days had passed. When the fifth day arrived, Xin Yi's condition was much better. She began to interact with other people, and gradually released herself from her self-imposed isolation.
"Mommy, I'm sorry for making you worry these few days," Xin Yi said obediently, and her little face was tinged with guilt as she bit her cherry lips tightly.
"Then you're fine, as long as you're healthy." Wan Qianqian sighed in her heart. At the very least, Xin Yi's condition was gradually improving, and there was nothing more important than this.
Xin Yi was a smart and sensitive child, and many times, she could clearly sense that some of the things around her had changed because of her. For example, at this time, Lu Yunxue called and said that she wanted to meet her. Although Wan Qianqian agreed, her tone was not very pleasant.
After hanging up the phone, Xin Yi's face also became slightly embarrassed. She muttered, "Mommy, grandma is very good to me. This matter has nothing to do with her, and it has nothing to do with daddy."
For a moment, Wan Qianqian was a little stunned. Her heart that was wrapped in thick dust was gradually washed away by Xin Yi's two sentences, and her heart suddenly brightened. Only then did she realize that she had already vented her anger on Lu Yunxue and Gu Tanfeng.
When she was about to go out, Lin Chenxi came over to take care of Xin Yue and Xin Yi for her. This feeling of being at her beck and call made Wan Qianqian's heart feel a trace of warmth.
Half an hour later, she came to the coffee shop that Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunxue had agreed on. When she pushed the door open, her gaze fell on Lu Yunxue who was sitting by the window. She saw her face sideways looking out of the window, and a strong sense of sadness lingered around her. Wan Qianqian took a deep breath before walking up to her.
"Hello, Old Madam Gu." As soon as she sat down, Wan Qianqian turned on the alienation mode. Even if Xin Yi said something, she still felt a little upset in her heart.
And this kind of upset started a long time ago, and it was not just condensed recently. She could not be intimate with her for a while.
Lu Yunxue withdrew her gaze from the window, and her eyes flickered slightly. She pursed her lips tightly and nodded slightly, as a response to her greeting.
