Xia Liyou was deeply absorbed in her phone and didn't notice Ruan Xiangchen approaching. When she looked up, she met his gaze, which conveyed meanings beyond words.
"Well, I'm doing okay," Xia Liyou managed a smile, but the warmth did not reach her eyes before she lowered her head again.
"Liyou, about what I told you last time..." Ruan Xiangchen regretted his actions since that day. Seeing Xia Liyou leave heartbroken, he began to despise his confession, believing that she wouldn't have been so upset if he hadn't told her about it.
Xia Liyou paused for a moment, thinking, so he brought it up again.
Well, since he asked, she would tell him truthfully.
Xia Liyou took a deep breath, looked straight into Ruan Xiangchen's eyes, "Ruan, I hope you can pretend that nothing happened last time. I can handle my problem, and I don't like others to interfere, okay?"
"But, I cannot ignore your problems," Ruan Xiangchen firmly replied.
