Shen Ping's comment left Song Xiaodong with an embarrassed expression on his face, and Song Xiaoru hurriedly said, "Director Shen, my younger brother isn't very good with words, don't take it to heart, thank you for your kindness."
Shen Ping laughed it off and said, "It's fine, I won't lower myself to his level. Xiaoru, about our matter..."
Song Xiaoru hadn't expected Shen Ping to bring up this matter right here and was quite embarrassed and unsure how to reply.
However, feeling Song Xiaodong squeeze her hand in encouragement, she finally mustered the courage to say, "Director Shen, thank you for valuing me so highly, but I have not yet considered my personal issues, and I wouldn't want to hold you back, so you should stop focusing your attention on me."
Shen Ping responded with a smile, "Personal matters eventually need consideration, right? We could start by trying to date, and I believe that my sincerity will definitely move you, Xiaoru."
