Hearing Li Xue's sharp words, the girls had almost lost the strength to retaliate. Not like they have anything reasonable with which they could retort in the first place. So, bowing their heads in embarrassment, they could just stare at the floor, praying if they could get some hole to hide.
Shen Bingling on the other hand, felt the warmth spread through her heart. Seeing Li Xue standing up for her made her feel like that even after losing everyone, she wasn't alone. And that one feeling was enough to survive in the world. Everyone wouldn't understand it, but ask the person who suffered something that she has just suffered now and they would get what she was talking about.
Shen Bingling stared at Li Xue as her eyes filled with both respect and admiration. At this moment of time, she has decided in her heart that – Even though Li Xue pushes her away, she would still be persistent to stay beside her. She would definitely earn the friendship she was yearning for.
