n asked in a hoarse and trembling voice, “What must I do? Should I really kowtow to her? How lowly am I for her to trample on my dignity in such a manner?!”

The feeling of someone trampling on one’s dignity was worse than death.

With that, she huddled to herself and burrowed her face in his chest, unwilling to let him see her at her sorriest state!

If she could find a place to nurse her wounds quietly, how great would that be?

The man hugged her.
Through the thin clothes, he could feel her burning breath and scalding tears.

“Don’t cry! I was in the wrong earlier!”

He bowed his head to her and admitted his fault.

His attitude was indeed problematic earlier!

Hence, he swallowed his pride and whispered this apology to her ear.

“I’m sorry!”

Those words weighed even more than a thousand pounds of gold.

He was such a proud person.
Being the Mu family’s heir and head, he was God’s favored one.

Thus, he had never bowed his head to anyone, nor had he ever apologized to anyone before.

This was the first time he had said such words himself.

It was also the first time he had swallowed his pride for someone.

“It’s my fault for flaring up at you before I even get the facts straight.
Don’t cry, or else… my heart will ache!”

His heart ached as she cried.

He was usually impatient toward women, especially to the tears of women.

However, he was helpless when it came to her tears.

As soon as she cried, his heart would soften into mush, and he would be utterly defeated.

She was rendered dazed by his apology, feeling that it was so surreal to hear him say such words!

It was as if she were dreaming.
