Knowing that Gongze Yu will give it to her, she prepares to leave.
"Mayor Gong..."
"Please call me Gongze Yu." Gongze Yu emphasizes again how she should address him.
"But, Mayor Gong, that's not right." Bai Xue feels slightly annoyed. Can't he understand what she means? She doesn't want to have anything to do with him!
"Xiao Xue, you don't have to be so guarded against me. I won't hurt you. I just want to be your friend." Gongze Yu gives a bitter smile.
If he cannot become her lover, being her friend and silently supporting her is fine too.
"I am a married woman, it is inappropriate for me to be friends with men." In this world, platonic friendships between men and women are too rare. Even though having a male best friend is trendy, she does not want one.
"You are very loyal to him." The better she treats Su Yan, the more he feels it is unrequited.
"Loyalty to the marriage is the most fundamental morality for every married person."
