Chapter 212 - Apologetic Puppy

Sei was taken aback with the words she said. To him, her, calling him shameless was something serious to the point that it bothered him and made him felt nervous. And the fact that she was covering her face as not to see him made him aggravated his worry.

At that juncture, Sei didn't know how to react. He raised his hand reflexively but he stopped midway. He was at lost and unsure about what's the right thing for him to say and do. Well, it was because this was the first time his wife was acting like this.

He knew how to console her when she was sad or hurt, however, this time, she seemed to be displeased and somewhat angry that she even called him shameless. He was at lost how to deal with a situation like this, he could only simply apologize.

"Sorry. I'm sorry." He said, this time his face was even more apologetic.

Davi who was now calming down from Sei's unexpected attack slowly peeked between her fingers the moment she heard him say he was sorry. And to her surprise, an extremely apologetic expression was flas.h.i.+ng across his face. His eyes reflected an intense worry and regret that he almost looked like a little boy who just did a grave misconduct and was now about to beg for forgiveness.

Seeing him like that, Davi was bewildered. She didn't expect him to suddenly look that miserable. She covered her face because she don't want him to see just how embarra.s.sed she was. And she called him shameless out of being too fl.u.s.tered. Well, to her, what he did was indeed shameless, especially because he was Sei, her supposedly innocent husband who just asked her to teach him how to French kiss not too long ago.

Wait… why is he looking like this? Did he misunderstood. something?

Davi was about to ask so she can clarify things to make him stop looking like a dejected little boy when her cellphone vibrated.

That same moment, before Davi could excuse herself to receive the call, Mr. Chen walked closer to them. Davi then gestured Sei she will answer the phone while the body guard sidled towards him to whisper something.

The person calling Davi was no other than the old professor who was really fond of her. She was the one who's always praising her and telling everyone how exceptional Davi was.

"Where are you? The next test is about to start?!" the old professor's voice was loud and strict as ever. Causing Davi to immediately reply that she's coming.

"Yes, prof. I'm coming." She said before she immediately faced towards Sei.

"The next test is about to begin so I need to go back now. I can finish it within forty minutes so…"

"It's okay miss. We'll send you back." Mr. Chen was the one who answered her before they entered the car hastily.

Davi looked at the quiet Sei as soon as she was seated, but before she could talk, Mr. Chen spoke first.

"Sei still need to prepare something so we're going to go home first." He said and Davi could only agree.

"Mm. I'll take a cab along with Kaide then." She replied and when she returned her gaze towards Sei, Davi felt a bit taken aback. His apologetic expression suddenly changed into something that seemed to be quite extreme and serious. He just looked as though the apologetic puppy a while ago transformed into an extremely perceptive and Argus-eyed beast that was currently focusing every ounce of his senses towards a certain approaching danger.

Davi was quite surprised with the one hundred eighty degrees change of his expression that her words just stocked in her throat. That moment, Davi could only deduce that Mr. Chen must have told him something really serious a while ago, so she decided not to pry about it anymore.
