Accepted?

Bei Sangyun shook her head. She needed to dismiss that ridiculous thought.

She resumed eating her unpalatable food.

In the distance, Fei Chuan raised his head from his meal and glanced in Bei Sangyun's direction.

She had returned to her usual seat, surrounded by her lackeys.

Fei Chuan lowered his head and continued eating, the irritation in his brow deepening.

After his earlier outburst, Bei Sangyun had stopped following him around. She offered no explanation and maintained an expressionless demeanor. Was this incident not bothering her at all?

Her words of wanting to become his friend were indeed a lie. She was just playing him. And he was a fool for expecting something.

Fei Chuan angrily finished his soup in one go, stood up, and left the cafeteria.

...

The remainder of the day passed without incident.

No one approached Fei Chuan. The "bee" that had been buzzing around him for the past few days had disappeared.
