"I know he's an annoying person. He must have accidentally said something he shouldn't have, or maybe the way he looked at you made you uncomfortable. Don't take it to heart. I'll apologize on his behalf," Du Youqian said, gesturing toward the lake. "Let's not talk. Let's just enjoy the scenery."
"...Mm."
