What position did Chen Da hold in Ren He's heart? Frankly, he was beyond a friend yet higher than a stranger, and if the time came and Ren He was certain of the other's character, he wouldn't mind letting the other into his circle of friends.
Ren He had strict definitions for friendship. In his previous life, due to certain events, he left his original post and then saw people's true colors.
But Ren He also understood that everyone drifts along with the currents of life, most not by choice.
What he could do in this life was to make himself stronger and then carefully choose his own circle. Ren He felt that he too had the right to select his own circle.
Friends were like a fortress deep in one's heart; they were a form of spiritual consolation when one felt most vulnerable. Therefore, everyone had the right to choose whether or not to be friends with someone.
