Qin Lianyi was silent. She thought she could get over Bai Tingxin. In the past years, she had been slowly getting over him. She would think of him less, and every time she thought of him, the ache in her heart would lessen.
She thought she was getting there and her heart would stop stirring for that man one day.
However, Bai Tingxin kept recurring to her these days. She would think of when he took her to the apartment, how he kissed her, what he said to her... and even lost sleep thinking about him.
She had been trying so hard to get over him but she failed because of Bai Tingxin's reappearance.
Bai Yulai said, "Are you going to get back together with Bai Tingxin? His engagement with the Gao family has been called off. Even if you get back with him, no one will criticize you."
Qin Lianyi shook her head. "I’ve never thought of getting back together with him. We grew up in different environments and don’t share the same values. Even if we do manage to get back together, problems will surface sooner or later. It's just that..."
She bit her lip and said frankly, "It seems that I still have feelings for him, so it's inappropriate and not fair to you if I date you. Bai Yulai, thank you for everything, but I think we should end it here."
Bai Yulai said, "Actually, you don't have to be sorry for the time we've spent together. You've never lied to me about anything. I've never been interested in women. When I was young, I even wondered if there was something wrong with me. My family also wondered if I was interested in men."
Qin Lianyi's eyes widened in surprise. "Well... are... you?" After asking the question, she immediately thought she was being inappropriate and quickly added, "I don't mean to discriminate in any way. I... I'm all for freedom to love, regardless of gender. I've read a lot of comics and novels..."
Her face could not help reddening at the end of her speech. 'Gosh, why did I say that?'
Bai Yulai was amused by Qin Lianyi, and the depressing atmosphere instantly disappeared.
