"Mr. Xi..." She looked at Xi Jiu with hopeful eyes and nervously counted on her fingers, "I'm, I'm sorry! I..."
Xi Jiu: "It's okay."
The girl gazed at him blankly, completely at a loss.
A hint of amusement flickered in the man's eyes.
He still couldn't resist the urge to lift his hand despite Ruan Munan's warning look, and patted her head.
"I'm not angry." His gaze was intense and focused, "So, don't worry about it."
Adding to that, he said, "We are friends."
Shen Wenqian, who had just woken up and stepped out of the guest room, heard this and rolled his eyes with a 'huh'.
Saying 'we are friends' when secretly in love, and saying friends when openly in love. During ambiguous times, saying friends, and still friends after breaking up.
Friends really have it tough.
…
Although Ruan Qi was still a bit shy, Xi Jiu's 'We are friends' truly healed her.
Everyone had breakfast together.
