Chapter 15: Holding Onto Hope
For quite a while, Mu Qiancheng withdrew his gaze and then left with a look of disappointment.
Jiang Xue didn’t know what Mu Qiancheng was thinking, nor did she know the disappointment in his heart. She just wanted him out because he looked so tired and she wanted him to rest.
Just a moment ago, in a fit of annoyance, she spoke without thinking. She wasn’t upset that Mu Qiancheng’s grip was too strong and hurt her hand, but rather at what he had said in response.
"Not intentional?"
Actually, Jiang Xue didn’t dislike Mu Qiancheng’s touch, she even quite liked it. But his words "not intentional" made her feel she might have been misguided.
She even wondered if she had misunderstood, that perhaps Mu Qiancheng didn’t love her as much as she’d imagined.
It must be said, even living a new life, some things in Jiang Xue’s nature couldn’t easily change. Such as her penchant for acting up, being capricious, and having a temper.
Her personality was something most people couldn’t handle.
Just like now, it wasn’t really anything serious, but because of one sentence from Mu Qiancheng, she got angry, leading to such a big misunderstanding, and causing their relationship, which could have improved, to return to a standstill.
Mu Qiancheng left the room and walked into the yard, meeting his father’s concerned gaze.
"Qiancheng, are you okay?" Mu Siwu asked with a worried expression. He hadn’t gone far earlier, so he naturally heard what was said between the two of them.
