I paused for a moment, then replied, "Do I need to be so harsh?"
"Then you are ungrateful... Don't forget how Ye Zhi helped Sisi when she couldn't get down from Cangshan Mountain."
"What kind of logic is that... If anyone is helping, it's Sisi, what does it have to do with me?"
"Don't you understand her yet?... She just wants the best for you."
So she'll do everything she can to help anyone connected to you... She's the silliest woman in the world... She'll never understand... only the child who cries and makes a fuss gets candy... and the one who gets hurt is always the one who doesn't cry or make a fuss.
I stared at Nicole for a while before replying, "I don't know what you mean by saying that."
Nicole and I looked at each other, and she suddenly seemed deflated, saying, "Forget it, she's already let it go, so there's no need for me to interfere... Sisi is a good girl. If you truly like her, then be with her... We'll all wish you well, really!"
“Nicole…don’t talk to me with your emotions…get this straight, she’s engaged…she’s the one who values her career above all else…so why do you see me as the one causing trouble?…Do you think this is fair to me?”
"Can you stop being so prickly?...I'm not trying to stand up for her..."
"Then what is it for?"
"At least don't hate her... She was never acting for herself... I'm saying this because I feel she's really pitiful... She seems to have everything, lacking nothing, but she can never live for herself... I asked her, 'Do you regret this?'... She smiled and told me she didn't regret it... She said that seeing you happy is her greatest happiness... If she really has that kind of understanding, that would be wonderful!... As soon as she finished speaking, she wiped away her tears... Yes, like you, we can't see how she got through the past year or so, we don't know what she's going through, and sometimes we even feel like she's living a dream... But those pains and helplessness are really like needles, densely packed and piercing her body... How could she not feel the pain!"
"Stop talking... She chose her own path, it has nothing to do with anyone else... I've come to terms with it, and I've expressed it to her face... Besides, Yang Sisi isn't the child you describe who cries and makes a fuss, she's genuinely good to me; compared to Ye Zhi, you haven't seen the whole picture of my years with Yang Sisi either."
