Shen Heyu took a deep breath upon hearing his words.
Looking into his eyes, as deep and icy as they had always been, she said, "Put me down. I can talk to you properly."
Pei Yansi looked at her intently, as if discerning the truth in her words, before eventually placing her gently onto the sofa opposite him.
Knowing that she just had a miscarriage and must be feeling very uncomfortable, he made all his movements extremely gentle.
Shen Heyu felt very unaccustomed to this sudden tenderness from him.
After sitting down, she began, "That day, I was already feeling very unwell. But your Shengsheng called me, saying you were drunk and wanted me to pick you up. I still went."
"Do you know why?"
"Because I thought, at least, we are husband and wife. That place is still your home. Going to pick you up and bring you home, I could do that. I endured my discomfort to fetch you. But I found out it was all a trap."
