Hearing her cry in pain, he immediately realized he was using too much force and quickly loosened his grip.
The hand that had let go then lifted her up and walked to the bed before placing her down on it—

Mo Shiqian turned to fetch her nightgown from the wardrobe and handed it to her.
Chi Huan took it and said, "You go ahead with your work. I'll change and take a nap, and in the evening, you call me for lunch."

He drew the curtains open, took the door with him, and left.
It wasn't until she saw the door being closed that she reacted, realizing she had forgotten to tell him... she remembered what happened that night.
Forget it...
