Chapter 14: The Wrong Way of Comforting

Peter was more than half an hour late.

He saw Gerwen standing next to the door of the restaurant across the street. She wore her favorite beige sweater tonight, looking at her phone while occasionally checking the pedestrians passing by. Peter looked left and right, crossed the road, and trotted in front of Gwen.

After meeting Peter, she did not reprimand him or ask him why he was late. She just tugged her bag into her arms, turned and left.

It seems that she is really angry this time.

"Gwen, Gwen! Wait for me! Peter called out her name and hurried after him. And when he finally caught up with her, who was still sulking, Gewen directly slapped away his hand that wanted to hold her shoulder.

"Don't touch me!" She said coldly, then turned and walked on. Peter, who knew that he was wrong, could only follow her again with a helpless face.

"Gwen, wait. The restaurant is over there, let's go in first, and then say okay after ordering? ”

And his words only seemed to make Gwen more annoyed. She stopped and turned to look at Peter.

"Restaurant? Do you remember anything about the restaurant? She yelled at Peter. You booked your seat half an hour ago, and did you know that I was 'invited' out by them!? ”

At this time, the anger in Gewen's heart had gradually dissipated, and it was replaced by sadness and grievance. The boy he loves in front of him is just apologizing and longing for his forgiveness, but he doesn't understand why he is angry and what he wants.

"I've been texting you, why are you so late?" Her voice was already filled with tears. "Do you know how flustered I was sitting there alone? I don't even know if you're coming, whether I'm going to keep waiting. ”

Peter fell silent. He was indeed wrong about this, and he was wrong on top of wrong. It wasn't until he was almost there that he remembered to turn it back on, and the influx of text messages made him panic. However, it was already too late to say anything at this point.

After all, he did let Gwen be wronged.

"Gwen, I—" Peter said with difficulty, his voice feeling extra hoarse at this point. But when the words came to his mouth, he didn't know how to say them. In the end, he could only sigh and turn all his feelings into an apology. "I'm sorry Gwen, I was wrong."

And this apology is the last thing Gewen wants to hear. She did want to forgive Peter, but Peter's behavior at this point made her not know whether she should do it or not.

Tell me you understand why I'm wronged! Tell me you won't make the same mistake again! Her inner voice was crying out to Peter, but her pride prevented her from doing so.

"I..."

Seeing Gwen's completely silent appearance, Peter also began to be a little anxious. He didn't know what to say, but he felt nothing worse than silence.

"Gwen, it's a little cold now..."Now he just wants to make amends for his mistakes first, so that this one-year anniversary will not be ruined so completely." There's a nice family restaurant around the corner with a nice chocolate cake on the corner. Let's go there and sit down first, shall we? ”

"Don't mention any chocolate cake! Do you think I'm the kind of girl who doesn't think anything when she sees sweets? However, Peter's behavior was only a poor diversion technique in Gwen's eyes. Faced with this man who was not even willing to take responsibility, her heart slowly cooled.

"But you obviously are," Peter muttered subconsciously.

His luck was bad, for Gwen heard it very clearly. The nameless fire in her heart was ignited again, and she threw the bag in her hand to the ground, and took a step forward towards Peter in anger.

"What do you mean by that?"

Peter, realizing that he had made a big mistake, waved his hand again and again, trying to keep the matter from going worse. "I just want to relax the atmosphere..."

"So you think it's good to joke at this time?" Gwen's voice grew colder. "Is everything just a joke to you?"

"I... I didn't mean that. Peter's voice grew lower. Gwen ignored him, turned around and picked up and opened her bag, checking how much damage she had caused in her anger just now.

"Ahh She let out an exclamation and quickly withdrew her hand from her bag. The back of her hand had been cut open by some sharp object, a wound about an inch long, and blood began to gush out uncontrollably.

Without thinking, Peter quickly ran to Gwen's side and grabbed her injured hand. Driven by his spiritual powers, the Force was transformed into pure healing energy and began to cause the wound to scab and heal.

"Hmm..."Under this cool and comfortable feeling, Ge Wen couldn't help but sigh lightly. At this time, she suddenly remembered that she and Peter should be in the stage of quarreling, and suddenly twisted her head away in anger. Peter didn't know what to say for a moment, so he turned his attention to healing his wounds. The two fell into an awkward silence.

At that moment, the sound of a news report on the TV screen in the restaurant next to them reached their ears.

“... This afternoon, a car chase took place on Third Avenue in Manhattan. Two fugitive criminals stole Stark Industries' experimental weapons, causing massive infrastructure damage. Fortunately, due to the intervention of the Red Knight, there were no casualties..."

“... One of the criminals has been identified as Alexei, who led a team to rob St. John's Bank last year. Sisevich. The Rikers prison superintendent still has not been able to explain why the convict, who had been sentenced to 30 years in prison, reappeared on the streets of New York just a year later..."

After hearing the news, Ge Wen's expression softened significantly. After a moment of silence, she rubbed her sweater a little uneasily, and broke the silence first.

"You... Is this the reason for being late? ”

"Uh... Well. Peter nodded, then fell silent again. At this time, he naturally understood that it was best not to say anything about meeting his fans, but his honest nature made him feel that there was something wrong with hiding it like this.

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"Because—" Peter immediately spoke, but when the words came to his lips, he did not know what to say better. In the end, he chose to directly say what he really felt in his heart.

"Because I don't want you to worry about me."

Gwen looked up at him, the anger on her face had disappeared, replaced by a look that Peter had never seen before: "But, I'm still worried." ”

"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong." A sense of guilt rose in Peter's heart, and the intensity of the emotion made his mouth move uncontrollably. "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have left you alone to wait here. I shouldn't have been, I was really wrong. I..."

A smile flashed across Gwen's face, and that was what she wanted to hear.

She interrupted Peter and took his arm. "No need to apologize, just... As long as you get it. ”

A look of joy flashed across Peter's face, but there was still some uncertainty in his tone: "You... Forgive me? ”

"Nope!" Gwen pursed her cherry lips, but the serious expression didn't last long. "But I'm a little interested in the soft chocolate cake you just mentioned."

"Let's go!" Peter grabbed Gwen's hand and happily pulled her towards the house he had recommended. Gwen frowned, but then stretched out with a helpless smile.

With such a boyfriend who is as innocent as a child, I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
