"This seems more sincere..."
Chi Qiu spoke in a voice filled with hidden resentment. As things had developed to this point, what temper could he possibly have left? Initially, in a moment of hot-headedness and spurred on by the bad influence of his so-called friends, he had acted rashly, resulting in the current situation. In order to prevent things from getting even worse, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and do this.
Losing a bit of face was not a big issue.
The major issue was if Chen Miao rejected him, or didn't even plan to reconcile at all, then that would be a significant problem.
"Alright, little sister, I've never asked you for anything, just this one thing. Could you do a favor for your cousin and not tell anyone else?"
"Really?"
Yu'er nodded thoughtfully, then her eyes rolled around as a hint of anticipation flashed through them, "Then as a condition, cousin, can you buy me a roasted sweet potato on the way back? That'd be great."
