Ruoruo's counter-question momentarily stunned Xiao Mei.
Over the years, she had encountered all sorts of men.
There were hypocrites who appeared dignified, and despicable men who were genuinely vile.

She asked herself: men like him, solid and steady yet modest and polite, were definitely the kind most normal women would desire.
