"You might not be feeling it, but I do," said Gou Danhong. "I don't know if you are too big-hearted or what. How can those words not hurt?"
"I'm not big-hearted," replied Mu Chenyan. "Everyone knows that. My heart is very small. It can't accommodate too many things or people into it."
Gou Danhong gave her a small smile seeing her acting like nothing happened. He didn't know if she was too good at pretending or if was he just unable to see through her. Because he refused to believe that those strong words didn't leave any cuts on her heart. No matter how strong she was, some things would hurt anyone. And she was no exception.
"By the way, Professor Gou, how do you have time to come here at this time?" asked Mu Chenyan clearly trying to divert the topic.
