"You, you, you also look down on people and kick them when they're down."
Qu Jing didn't expect Lin Baoni to be so direct. She wasn't used to this straightforward way of speaking. Back in the compound, everyone spoke in roundabout ways.
"You're overthinking it. It's unnecessary for you. I'll say it again: live your own lives, let's keep to ourselves and go our separate ways."
