Lu Xiao heated a glass of milk in the kitchen, planning to bring it to Ares. Even an apology needed an excuse.
However, just as she reached the top of the stairs, she saw the door to Ares's bedroom open. Ares stepped out. It looked like he had just washed his face, as the bangs across his forehead were damp.
Upon seeing her, a flash of surprise crossed his eyes, quickly replaced by panic. "Sorry, I just..."
"It's not your fault. I'm the one who should apologize. I didn't consider your feelings. I was just thinking that when we got married, I made the decision on my own, and you might not have truly wanted it. It seems I did the same thing again this time. I'm sorry. I was only focused on not holding you back and didn't think about how you felt. I'll be more mindful from now on. Here, drink this milk to calm yourself. I'll be more considerate of you in the future."
