Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 2376

"Why are you here?" Darryl was stunned.

He was puzzled to see Gonggong come into his tent quietly; it seemed like she did not want anyone to discover her.

"Darryl!" When she realized that Darryl was alone, Gonggong sighed in relief. She bit his lips and whispered, "I'm sorry about what happened before—"

Gonggong had worked with Zhang Jue to assassinate Darryl. Even though she did not use any of her internal energy, she felt guilty when she saw Darryl fall from the hillside and into the river.

Darryl had survived the catastrophe, but his internal strength was gone.

Gonggong was still ashamed of her action even after Darryl had regained his internal energy. She took advantage of the temporary ceasefire with the Raksasa tribe that night to sneak into Darryl's camp so that she could apologize to the man.

Gonggong had traversed the world for nearly a thousand years. She was haughty, and she had never bowed to anyone, but after she got to know Darryl and learned about what he did for the Nine Mainland, she admired him very much.

Darryl was probably the only person in the entire world who could make Gonggong look at him in a different light.

Darryl chuckled inwardly.

He felt Gonggong's sincerity, but he was still a little surprised. After a few seconds, he smiled.

Unexpectedly, Gonggong had taken the effort to apologize to him.

Darryl had hated Gonggong very much in the beginning. If it were not for her, he would not be so miserable. However, after he thought about it carefully, Gonggong did not use her internal energy when she hit him with the palm attack. He fell down the hillside because he had been severely injured from what had happened much earlier than that attack.

Therefore, Darryl did not hate Gonggong that much, and after he thought of Gonggong's position and the situation then, he was completely relieved.

However, it never occurred to him that Gonggong would apologize to him so humbly.

He felt special.

Darryl decided to tease her nonetheless. After all, she and Zhang Jue had almost killed him, so she was somewhat responsible for his injuries.

"Apologize? Do you think that would help?" Darryl smiled at Gonggong and said thoughtfully, "I trusted you so much in Mid Sky City, yet you and Zhang Jue had wanted to assassinate me? Did you know that I almost died? I almost died because of you."
