"I only said that I would protect this group of five. With another addition to the group, I'm afraid that I lack both the interest and the means to do so." Si Mobai did not beat around the bush. If Lan'er objected to Lin Suyin joining, then he would object to it even more!
Lin Suyin's eyebrows creased a little at being rejected outright. However, she still smiled gracefully and answered earnestly, "I see. I apologize for being overly excited about making friends. I lacked consideration for all of you. Please, don't mind me. I will go and ask the other teams if they would like me to join them."
Seeing how sincere she was, it was hard to turn her down. Luo Yunzhu apologized awkwardly, "I'm sorry. It's just that we already have our team…"
Maybe she'd been wrong about Lin Suyin? Luo Yunzhu wondered if she was too guarded. She might very well be harmless, unlike Tu Xiupei.
