"Mm, let's leave it at that." Ou Manhui said.
At that moment, it felt as if something heavily struck his heart.
"Why? To be friends?" he asked.
She opened her mouth, then said, "If you don't want to, we don't even have to be friends."
Sheng Shaocheng looked at her with a complex expression.
The morning light was faint, the sky seemed to have a slight glow, and the sunlight was about to break through the darkness, squeezing through the clouds. But his heart felt like it had suddenly fallen into boundless darkness.
"Do you still... hate me?"
Ou Manhui heard him ask, her lips slightly pale, "No. I don't hate you, nor blame you, it's just too exhausting being with you. Keeping a friend's distance is the best outcome for both of us."
"So you don't love me anymore?" he asked.
Her breath halted for a moment.
