Xie Xi knew that Pei Xu was pursuing me.

She also knew how persistent Pei Xu's entanglement with me was.

When Pei Xu disappeared from my daily life, she widened her eyes in surprise.

"What did you say to him? He actually stopped looking for you."

I looked at her. "You seem quite disappointed?"

Xie Xi propped up her head lazily. "I've known him for many years, and I had a pretty good impression of him."

"Oh, but since you don't like him, it's a good thing he's not around."

I pinched her cheek. "Instead of worrying about me, why don't you think about you and Qi Zhao?"

"What about me and him! We were getting along just fine!"

"Think about when you two will get married."

"I don't want to. He hasn't even proposed to me yet, um... although we are engaged."

We chatted for a while, neither of us dwelling on what had just happened.
