Perhaps he had realized it too, but he pretended to be deaf and blind, gladly agreeing to Qiao Xu's request to marry her?
After the surprise came a deeper sense of guilt and heartache.
To what extent did Xuxu from those days love him, that she would risk joking about the entire Qiao's family just to marry him?
And how did he respond to her every time?
The thought of it was heart-wrenching pain for Lu Moqing.
He looked at Qiao Xu, struggling to muster the words to ask for her forgiveness.
No matter what, he had done those things in the past, and he was utterly wrong. He didn't want to argue about anything, but Qiao Xu's words "let's end it here" made his heart panic and ache.
As Qiao Xu was about to leave once again, Lu Moqing stopped her, "Xuxu."
He slowly walked up to her, pursed his lips, and displayed a somewhat pale smile, "It's okay if you don't accept my compensation. I won't give up."
