Maybe it really is like this!
Guo Man truly hoped Xia Liu could return to who he was before, regardless of his past self.
But he definitely wouldn't have been as cold as he is now, where the chill feels like frost even from a distance, making him unapproachable.
"Xia Liu, do you think there's a chance for us?"
Guo Man mustered a bit of courage from somewhere and asked him directly.
"I mean, is there a possibility?"
Realizing she was being too straightforward, Guo Man quickly clarified.
But instead, her words became even more blunt.
"Probably not. I'm not a good person."
Xia Liu's response was swift and decisive.
He wasn't a good person.
If Guo Man could understand this, perhaps she wouldn't feel as gut-wrenchingly hurt later.
"Oh, I was just joking. Don't take it too seriously. I only said that to lighten your mood since you're always so serious."
Guo Man's smile carried a hint of awkwardness.
Did you know?
She was actually rejected.
