When she realized that Han Zhuoling did not move at all.
He did not fasten his seatbelt or start the car.
Shi Xiaoya paused for a moment and stopped trying to fasten her seatbelt buckle.
Her hand loosened, and the seatbelt slipped back into place.
Han Zhuoling turned to face her and said, “Now that I am sure you are fine, I have to have a good talk with you about this.”
Shi Xiaoya looked like a child that was getting scolded by the teacher for doing something wrong, and she sat still obediently.
Her legs were closed and her hands were also placed on her knees properly.
She looked so honest and obedient.
If it was a different situation, Han Zhuoling would have laughed long ago.
But now, he really was not in the mood to laugh.
“Do you know why I’m angry?” Han Zhuoling asked in a low voice.
Shi Xiaoya moved her lips and said, “You’re angry that I met with an accident, yet the first thing I did was to go to the interview?”
He did not expect that she really knew the answer.
Han Zhuoling did not know whether to be angry or laugh.
He was angry that she clearly knew he would be angry about this, yet she insisted on doing it, not knowing how to cherish herself at all.
And yet he wanted to laugh because she had telepathy with him and could instantly think of this point and understand his thoughts.
This kind of chemistry was something that the average person did not have.
With that, Han Zhuoling could no longer bring his anger up anymore.
He sighed and said, “In my eyes, nothing is more important than you. After you met with such a dangerous situation, had I been around, the first thing I would have done is to drag you to the hospital. Is that nuisance of an interview more important than your safety? No matter how important your work is, it won’t be as important as you.
“When I think of how you sat in that torn and tattered car and even drove in it for a while, I feel extremely unnerved and scared.” The car was very quiet. Only Han Zhuoling’s low voice and Shi Xiaoya’s breathing were audible.
His voice was tinged with restraint, but his voice still trembled despite that restraint.
The accident this time had really scared him.
Shi Xiaoya hung her head in guilt.
She understood what Han Zhuoling meant.
She wanted to apologize, but she knew that it was not appropriate for this matter.
She then heard Han Zhuoling say, “I carefully protected you, unable to let you get hurt even slightly or suffer even a small bit of grievance. Yet you, whom I cherished and protected so much, did not care about your own safety at all and felt that your work was more important than you yourself? How can I not be angry?”
He felt a sense of helplessness, the kind where his efforts had all gone to waste.
Shi Xiaoya could understand how he felt.
It was like when a daughter had been pampered lovingly until she was grown up.
They could not bear to let her do even a bit of chores at all or let her suffer, just so that she could grow up happily.
Yet after she grew up and got married, she ended up suffering at her husband’s place.
Besides having to work every day, she still had to busy herself with doing the household chores, washing the clothes, and cooking. In the future, she would even have to bear children and take care of them.
If their financial situation did not allow for it, all the more she could not behave like a daughter at home as she did in the past, getting pampered lovingly by her parents and leading a luxurious lifestyle.
Be it materially or emotionally, there would be a drastic slip in the quality of her life.
When the parents see that their daughter had lost her past elegance and beauty, with her figure going awry day by day, her hands getting rougher and rougher, and her fingertips getting coarser and coarser from doing chores…
The daughter whom they had pampered so lovingly at first started slogging her guts out for her family and even had to take care of her in-laws, so she would certainly have some conflict and disagreements with them. All the more she would not be able to be as carefree as she had been at home.
Although it was not very appropriate to use parental love for their daughter as a metaphor for the relationship between Han Zhuoling and Shi Xiaoya…
