"W-Why are you asking this?" Dong Chengling, who was always serene, suddenly paled.
Facing Dong Chengling, Bai Ji scratched his head awkwardly. "I just... wanted to learn more about Ren Suo, and Chengling, you have a good relationship with him... I don't mean anything else by it..."
Dong Chengling gave Bai Ji a deep look. His expression didn't seem fake, unlike his usual face, which often bore a melancholic expression and a smile that didn't reach his eyes. Now, Bai Ji appeared shy, with a touch of hope, and his whole demeanor seemed to light up.
Their eyes met, and Dong Chengling understood.
"...Why are you interested in Ren Suo?"
Bai Ji covered his mouth, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Initially, it was because you, Chengling, often mentioned him."
So it was my fault?
"Back then, I felt that Ren Suo must be a fascinating person. Today was our first meeting, but he made a huge impact on me. I never expected someone could be so interesting."
