"Ji Yan, I haven't been doing well these past few days."
As soon as she stepped onto the rooftop, Ling Tian threw herself into Ji Yan's arms, whimpering almost uncontrollably.
Ji Yan froze, unsure of what to do for a moment.
She was crying so hard; if he were to push her away again, it would only make things worse.
However, he was reluctant to let her hold him like that.
They're not boyfriend and girlfriend, so such ambiguous behavior is indeed inappropriate.
After much deliberation, Ji Yan had no choice but to calm Ling Tian down and speak to her carefully:
"Ling Tian, let's talk this out. Let me go first, it'll look bad if someone sees us."
"No. Ji Yan, just let me hug you for a little while, okay?"
Ling Tian was eager to win back Ji Yan and was naturally unwilling to give up.
Ji Yan frowned in frustration, pondered for a long time, and finally mustered his courage to look steadily at Ling Tian:

Ling Tian bit her lower lip lightly, explaining with a wronged expression, "Ji Yan, I really never intended to lie to you."
"Stop spouting this nonsense, okay?"
"No. You've always held a place in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't have taken the initiative to talk to you."
Ling Tian knew that without Ji Yan's protection, her days at No. 1 Middle School would be even more difficult.
In order to win back Ji Yan's heart, she had to take the initiative.
