"But you know, even if you can't tell whether I pretend or not, or if I am the kind of person to do so, the truth is that I don't really have a reason to pretend to begin with", Wu Long's words returned her thoughts to their conversation.
"How come? You're not going to say that you have the same morals she does, right?"
"Haha, of course not, if you ever catch me saying that, you can confidently declare that I'm lying, most people will agree with you as well"
"Then?"
"It's because Lan'er is not pushing me to change my behavior. If anything, she's troubled by her belief that she is making things harder for me. Even though I try to find a solution to those worries or hers… but that's beyond the point... The fact is, I am the one who is choosing to seek new answers. So why would I need to pretend?", Wu Long's words caused Hong Yue to make a doubtful expression.
