"I shouldn't have left you alone at all."
"?"
Ah? Why did it suddenly shift to hers? Wasn't it about another woman?
Xiu Mei's forehead creased. She was confused and she wanted to ask him what he was talking about but because of her speaking difficulty at the moment, and he was hugging her quite tightly, she couldn't ask him at all.
She heard him release a heavy sigh and from that, she could somehow feel his current mood.
Maybe he was too stressed at work? And then he probably missed her staying in the office so he was apologizing right now that he left her alone in the house?
Ah, seriously. She was so confused! She couldn't understand what he was thinking right at this moment and it bothers her a lot!
Since she couldn't understand his thoughts, Xiu Mei decided to comfort him anyway. She returned his hug and stroked his back in a gentle manner, trying to comfort him. She felt his hug tighten as he released another heavy sigh.
