Chen Tingting pouted, wrinkling her chin.
After hearing what Lin Ruoxi said, Chen Tingting felt even more upset.
Xue Rui sat down to eat with Lin Ruoxi, a smile playing on his lips. He hadn't expected to tease Chen Tingting to the point of tears.
'Right. Gu Muxue is usually the one to shoo Chen Tingting away. Even though that girl only looks fierce on the surface, Chen Tingting is timid. A single cold look from Gu Muxue is enough to scare her off.'
'But Lin Ruoxi is different. The girl is innocent and simple, always speaking her mind.'
'And on top of that, she's outstanding in every way. The astonishing things she says so casually have a wide area of effect when it comes to crushing people's spirits.'
"What else do you want to eat?" Xue Rui asked softly.
He had made Chen Tingting cry, and this was the first time he had seen her so quiet—just like when he first met her in that little alley. It tugged at his heartstrings.
