"Indeed, even you couldn't possibly..."
"It was me who asked her to pick up the ball for me."
"Now it's even more messed up, isn't it!"
Chen Yuan didn't mention the fact that she confessed her feelings to him, just like he wouldn't talk about Li Youyou's gossip.
Confessing is an action that requires a lot of courage.
Since she had mustered up the courage to do so, the least he could do as the person involved was to respectfully keep it private.
Chen Yuan had passed the age where he'd take pride in appearing popular.
Wait.
I'm not freaking popular at all.
Tang Jian and their lot don't invite me to drink, Zhou Fu and Tang Siwen are carrying on with their escapades without me; these two don't want to take me along either...
To be such a lonely old Yuan, who needs superstardom anyway?
"Do you guys dislike me?" Chen Yuan asked with a hint of sorrow while waiting for the car.
The two were taken aback by his question and fell into a subtle self-reproach.
