"Repay kindness with ingratitude?" Shen Mianmian raised her eyebrows in confusion. She knew that what Ruan Lingyu had come to say might not be pleasant, but where did this accusation of repaying kindness with ingratitude come from?
Ruan Lingyu asked softly, "Xiaonan helped you, yet you've disrupted his life. How do you see any difference between this and repaying kindness with ingratitude?"
Shen Mianmian pursed her lips and remained silent.
"Mianmian, I know Xining has already spoken with you once, and you might find her words unreliable, but I can assure you, if you agree to stop contacting Xiaonan, I can step in to sponsor your tuition and living expenses until you graduate. If you find a job in Beijing that you like afterward, I can also recommend you for it—just as long as you break off contact with Xiaonan. What do you think?"
