She snorted again, her voice still thick with sobs, "Anyway, you don't like me... nobody likes me, maybe... maybe those who seem to like me on the surface actually hate me behind my back."
"I don't deny that I didn't have a very good impression of Miss Xia when we first met, but I later discovered that apart from her serious problem of saying one thing and meaning another, Miss Xia is actually a very good girl."
"Don't think I'll believe you just because you're saying nice things now..." She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, sobbed again, and then said with a self-awareness, "People judge others based on their first instinct... I'm no exception. You injured me the first time we met, so I hate you. The first time we met, you thought I was bullying Hua Yan..."
"It doesn't mean bullying the beautiful girl, it means bullying people."
She asked in confusion, "Is there a difference?"
“Of course there is a difference.” Seeing that she was still quite confused, Qi Chang’an didn’t say much, but just smiled and continued to ask, “I feel like you’re bullying Hua Yan, so what?”
"So you hate me..." Feng Guang bit her lip and muttered softly, "Hate me if you want... I won't care anyway. There are plenty of people in this world who hate me... one more won't make a difference."
She spoke with such magnanimity.
Feng Guang has always known that she is not a person who can be easily served. She often overhears people talking about her behind her back, but she just listens and lets it go. She will not waste her emotions on unimportant people. They say that she is willful, arrogant and domineering, so she lets them talk.
Qi Chang'an lowered his eyes and sighed, seemingly helpless about something. He said in a low voice, "The reason I refused to let Lord Xia teach you was because I felt there was nothing about you that needed to be corrected."
"...What do you mean?" The topic changed so quickly that her mind couldn't keep up.
Her face was still wet with tears, and she put on an air of ignorance, as if she knew the truth, which was rather endearing.
Qi Chang'an smiled and said with a smile, "I don't deny that you have many flaws. Indeed, it's easy to be annoying, but I think these flaws are just right for you."
"You mean... because I'm such an annoying person, it's good to have more flaws and be annoying?"
"Of course that's not what I meant." Qi Chang'an smiled when he saw her serious expression. "What I meant was that even though Miss Xia has many flaws, she is still adorable."
It's cute too...
Feng Guang finally lost her desire to cry. She looked at him with a strange expression and asked, "Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about the word 'cute'?"
"I think... that's probably not the case." Qi Chang'an coughed, his voice clearly tinged with a smile. "I just want to say that it's precisely because the scenery isn't perfect that it's so beautiful."
Feng Guang's heart skipped a beat. She paused for a moment, then silently moved to sit on the ground with her knees drawn up to her chest, turning her back to him so he wouldn't see the panic in her eyes.
With her back to him, she said in a muffled voice, "You don't need to comfort me. I was just rejected by the boy I like. I'm not going to do anything like that. I value my life the most. Even if everyone in the world died, I would still live on."
