Gu Xiaonuan, along with her culinary skills, had also forgotten the growing sense of affection she developed for Si Yuchen while living in his apartment.
Si Yuchen was unaware of Gu Xiaonuan's emotional changes; thus, he didn't realize what he had inadvertently missed out on.
If he knew Gu Xiaonuan had feelings for him too, he wouldn't have put in so much effort with such little results.
Si Yuchen hoped that Gu Xiaonuan could live well even after leaving him, but that required her cooperation.
Now, Gu Xiaonuan wouldn't even accept his terms, leaving Si Yuchen unable to ensure her future well-being.
Gu Xiaonuan had her own reasons for wanting a divorce; she wanted to completely sever ties with him.
Before the divorce, Gu Xiaonuan had already rejected his terms, conditions he proposed to ensure her a stable and comfortable life.
After the divorce, Gu Xiaonuan had even less reason to accept his care solely based on what he said.
