"Well, you guys can talk. I need to go grocery shopping."
After Sally left, Brenda asked, "Spike, do you want to go to the hospital? Your face is bruised."
"You are looking down on me by asking me this," Spike said with a smile.
Brenda said apologetically, "My brother is young and impulsive. I'm so sorry. Please forgive him."
"I'm really fine."
Spike rubbed his face and asked sincerely, "Brenda, what do you think? Will you marry me?"
"Sorry, I don't want to."
Spike was surprised. He did not expect Brenda to reject him so directly.
Brenda said seriously, "I'm sorry. I know you are outstanding and have great achievements, but I don't have any feelings for you. We barely know each other, for the starter. We met once five years ago and spent a day together. This is the second time we have met each other, and you say that you want to marry me. But I think it's a bit rash."
