"I've heard some things about you..." He Yue slowly began to speak. If her previous interactions with him were resistant, even somewhat reckless, at this moment, she was cautious.
Listening to his story, even the hardest of hearts might shed a few tears.
It seems that being in a prominent family isn't all glamorous; the sordid affairs hidden in the shadows can be truly alarming.
Chi Yan laughed scornfully, "So, are you pitying me?"
"I... I suppose so."
"I hate others' pity!" Chi Yan clenched his fists, feeling as though it made him seem like a pathetic creature.
"Then, I'm sorry..." He Yue was at a loss for what to say.
"Forget it, forget it... Sympathy is better than hate." Chi Yan shook his head, his tone somewhat helpless, "Don't mind what I say, I'm just not in a good mood today."
"Do I really look like that Xiu Yanran?" He Yue asked, "Is that why you bullied me back then?"
