Oh, I see. A belated adolescence. Is it too late to start rebelling now?

Duanmu Ci silently complained in his heart, then tried hard to organize his thoughts, "When it comes to matters of the heart, no one else can interfere. As the saying goes, 'Only the person drinking the water knows whether it is hot or cold,' which is exactly the point. I suppose you won't be coming back to Haishan with me and Professor Yan this time. You should make good use of your time in Tokyo to see what kind of girl Jiazi is, and then make a decision in your heart."

"Okay." Wei Yue nodded, then said, "Let's not talk about me anymore. Let's talk about what gift you're going to bring to my house tomorrow!"

Duanmu Ci looked into Wei Yue's eyes and asked seriously, "Yuan-jun, are you going to discuss with me what gift I should bring to your house? Wouldn't that seem a bit too direct? Perhaps we should be more tactful?"

"We are friends, Duanmu-kun!" Wei Yue suddenly became hearty, patting Duanmu Ci on the shoulder. "Friends should be more honest with each other! My Yuan family's social standing is only slightly lower than that of the royal family, so please put more thought into choosing a gift, Duanmu-kun! Don't be too stingy, lest you be impolite."

Looking at Yuan Weiyue, who came from a "high-ranking family," Duanmu Ci began to carefully consider whether he had made the mistake of choosing friends poorly over the years...

Confucius once said, "When you see someone virtuous, think of emulating them; when you see someone not virtuous, reflect on your own shortcomings."

Duanmu Ci suddenly felt that it was time for him to "reflect" on himself... (To be continued...)
