"Forget about men, I don't even have a proper job or friends of the opposite sex," Qiu Xiaoying complained.
"How can you say you have no friends of the opposite sex? Aren't I one?" Su Wen quickly said.
The words of Su Wen rekindled the light in Qiu Xiaoying's eyes.
"Are you willing to be friends with someone like me?" Qiu Xiaoying asked, puzzled.
The man before her was simply too impressive.
So impressive that she didn't even have the courage to speak to him.
With a smile, Su Wen said, "Of course, I am happy to be your friend."
"If there's anything you need, just come find me in the neighboring village. As long as I can help, I will do my best."
His words made Qiu Xiaoying's heart skip a beat!
Her heart, which had been dead for several years, seemed to ignite in that moment, like an eternal torch alight within her.
As they talked, they arrived at her home.
Qiu Xiaoying's home was also a small courtyard, which, despite its age, was arranged quite neatly.
