"You think there's still hope for Shen Xin and me to be together, right?"
"If she still likes you, as long as you're both firm enough, there's still hope.
"But this depends on Shen Xin's choice. If she's willing to fight for you with her parents, you'll still have hope."
The light in Qiao Chen's eyes faded.
"So, it still depends on Shen Xin's attitude?" He lowered his eyes and murmured, "No matter how I fight for it, if she decides to alienate me, we still have no hope of being together.
"How could she go against her parents for me? She's an obedient and sensible girl, and she's very filial to her parents. She's alienated me because of her parents, so how could she fight for me with them?"
"Then, if your positions were swapped, would you be willing to fight for her?"
"I would," Qiao Chen replied without hesitation.
Qiao Mianmian smiled and asked gently, "So, how can you be sure that she's unwilling?"
