"I thought Qingmu Garden was our home for just the two of us. No matter how close they are to you, they are still outsiders," Ding Ye tightened his grip on Su Hongxing's hand, his deep eyes narrowing slightly. "Or are you saying, in your heart, these outsiders are more important than me?!"
Su Hongxing couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this. "Are you competing with them for favor?"
Considering Ding Ye's aloofness, would he compete for favor? She seriously doubted it!
"Do I need to compete with them for favor?!" Ding Ye sneered.
Su Hongxing couldn't help but laugh out loud. It was clearly a rivalry for favor, yet he wouldn't admit it. She thought his personality had changed, but it turned out to be the same, just better at pretending than before.
"Don't you find those two bothersome?" Ding Ye steered the conversation back to what mattered most.
"No, they are both very cute," Su Hongxing replied earnestly, no longer laughing.
