Jinyun Hall was filled with the sounds of chattering.
Young people were more eager to criticize; however they saw that Ning Yunzhao still hadn’t said anything but was instead smiling.
"You don’t think so?" asked a frowning companion.
"I don’t think so," said Ning Yunzhao. "She believes in herself; you yourselves don’t believe in yourselves, so instead you call her arrogant?"
The group was amazed.
"I know." A companion smiled, looking at Ning Yunzhao and at the girl present. "You two are alike."
Alike? Him and her?
Ning Yunzhao did not understand.
"You seem to be very low-profile, but your words and actions are always filled with pride, always looking like you’re thinking ‘This is as it should be’." The companion snorted teasingly. "This is what makes people the most annoyed."
Everyone laughed, Ning Yunzhao included.
"It isn’t pride; it is the springtime of youth," he said.
The companions laughed again.
"You just boasted about yourself."
