Someone sees you as enemy, well, see them as enemy.

Yi Xin Xue watched the play of emotions on Ling'er's face, understanding more than she let on.

"Sister Ling'er speaks with such grace..." she said, setting the tea aside.

"But do enlighten me, what is it that fills your heart with such fervor?"

Yi Xin Xue wants a friendly relationship, but if someone sees you as an enemy, see them as an enemy too, the flowing river will return one fateful day anyway.

Ling'er's gaze flickered, but she held her ground, her voice steady as she replied.

"Only the desire to walk the proper path, Dao Yin Sister. To be as refined and worthy as those who have captured the Young Master's favor..." As someone from a noble family, how can she back off, let alone from someone like her?

But She doesn't seem so off, her aura, and mannerisms, are off the chart like a graceful elegant swan.
