"Xixia, are you stupid or what? All this time, your Brother Jingchen has been by your side, always revolving around you. His love for you is so obvious—can't you see it?"
This time, even the usually reserved Zhou Xingyan was forced to speak up. An outsider sees things more clearly, and it was evident that Gu Jingchen was interested in their Xixia!
"Xingyan, do you know? After everything that happened to my family, I've stopped dreaming about finding such a wealthy man and entering such a prestigious household. Sometimes, I wonder if he might really have feelings for me, but more often than not, I deny it. Look at me—what do I have now? I have nothing. Behind me is only my sick mother and the mess my family left behind. Even my own brother's whereabouts are unknown. The only one left treating me well is my Brother Jingchen, who gives me warmth. So, let's not bring this up anymore, okay? And don't tease me about it either. Please?"
