He’s no Different from Pei Ziheng

Xia Ling was quiet for a long time before eventually nodding.

It was not because she had been convinced but because she did not want to listen to Sister Mai Na's persuasion anymore. She knew that Sister Mai Na had good intentions and only gave her such advice because she was really looking out for her. However, she could only appreciate Sister Mai Na's good intentions, as her experiences with Pei Ziheng were too horrifying and complicated that there was no need for anyone else to know about them. As such, she was unable to tell Sister Mai Na why she insisted on rejecting him.

After some time, Sister Mai Na would forget about this situation and settling it then would not be too late.

On the other hand, Sister Mai Na thought that Xia Ling had accepted it and smiled. "That's a good girl."
