"Teacher Wu, it's really not as serious as you think. Reaching such heights at my young age already defies the natural order, so your logic doesn't really apply to me," Ge Dongxu said, wanting to alleviate Wu Yili's concerns as he explained himself again.
However, the more Ge Dongxu explained, the more moved Wu Yili felt inside, but she didn't continue to show this emotion and instead kept it deep within her heart.
Wu Yili raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes and burst into laughter, "I've seen people who brag shamelessly, but I've never seen anyone brag quite like you!"
"Heh heh! I'm just telling the truth," Ge Dongxu laughed.
As Ge Dongxu mentioned that he was telling the truth, Wu Yili couldn't help but remember how she had once completely misunderstood him as a poor mountain kid, even inviting him out to eat in order to sneak him some extra nourishment. Her face blushed, and she couldn't help but give him a displeased stare, leaving Ge Dongxu baffled.
