Chapter 385 Just This Little Love Is Enough
But it was obvious that Gu Yuan did not hear what Jiang Ning said.
When he reacted, he was the only one left in the room.
Gu Yuan sat at the empty dining table, holding a cup of cold coffee in his hand, with a hint of loss in his eyes.
Ever since Jiang Ning became busy with a new project, they rarely had the opportunity to share a leisurely breakfast time like before.
Whenever he saw Jiang Ning's hurried figure shuttling between the kitchen and the door, just on his way to work, he would feel an indescribable grievance and sadness in his heart.
He missed those warm mornings when the two of them sat around the dining table, savoring freshly baked bread while chatting leisurely and planning the day's work and life.
Even simple food tasted extra delicious during those days because their hearts were connected.
But the reality is that as Jiang Ning's career developed, she became busier and busier, and the morning time became extremely precious to her.
Gu Yuan understood her efforts and pursuits, but his inner emotions could not be easily calmed down.
He longed to feel that sense of being valued and accompanied again, even if only for a brief moment.
Finally, after Jiang Ning hurried out again, Gu Yuan couldn't help but express his feelings:
"Jiang Ning, I know you are very busy, but it takes time for our relationship to be reconciled. I respect your ideas, so I also hope that you can respect me a little more."
Jiang Ning was almost going to his studio, but when he saw the message from Gu Yuan, he couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.
Maybe a little guilty too.
After Gu Yuan mustered up the courage to express his dissatisfaction with the lack of breakfast time together, a barely perceptible flash of surprise and self-blame appeared in Jiang Ning's eyes.
She certainly didn't realize that her busyness had affected their relationship, especially in the simplest but most intimate moments of daily life - like having breakfast together.
Jiang Ning has always been fully committed to her work, and her focus and enthusiasm have enabled her to achieve remarkable results in her career.
However, this wholehearted devotion caused her to neglect other important aspects of life, including her emotional exchange with Gu Yuan.
She suddenly realized that while pursuing career success, she should also pay attention to the feelings of those around her and not neglect her care and companionship for Gu Yuan because of work.
Jiang Ning stopped, took a deep breath, and then sent a message to Gu Yuan:
"I'm sorry. I know I've been a little too busy lately and haven't been able to spend enough time with you. I'll try to adjust the balance between work and life in the future and leave more time for us."
After sending the message, Jiang Ning felt much more relaxed.
She decided that from now on, she would pay more attention to communication and getting along with Gu Yuan, and manage this relationship with all her heart.
After all, work is important, but love is equally indispensable.
The more energy she puts into her career, the less time and energy she has to devote to her family and personal relationships.
But for those who truly value her, being with her seems a little out of reach.
Jiang Ning originally thought that Gu Yuan would continue to support and understand her as always, just as he had always done.
But when Gu Yuan opened up about his feelings, Jiang Ning suddenly realized that she had neglected her partner's needs and forgotten the importance of finding a balance between work and family.
She seemed to see the disappointment and longing in Gu Yuan's eyes through his words, which was a silent request for them to live together.
Jiang Ning's heart was full of apologies. She wanted to go home quickly, hug him tightly, and give Gu Yuan a big hug.
So, she immediately promised him on WeChat.
They will re-examine their schedule to make sure they can make more time and space for their relationship.
She understands that success is not only reflected in work, but also in how to maintain emotional connection with her loved ones in a busy life.
This conversation also made Jiang Ning realize her negligence and inspired her determination to find a solution. She knew that only through the joint efforts and understanding of both parties could their relationship become stronger and happier.
But what she didn't know was that this was actually all Gu Yuan wanted.
Just this little bit of love was enough to bring him back to life from those complicated and disgusting interpersonal relationships.
Gu Yuan's heart was instantly filled with warmth. He knew that although there were many challenges and busyness in life, as long as they were willing to communicate and work hard, those precious times together would always come back.
