"I... cough cough... have heard a little about the issues between your parents. Do you... really mind that her dad once liked your mom?" Lu Yixia pondered for a moment, his voice deep, as he asked Shen Shi.
"It's not that..." Shen Shi shook his head and responded to Lu Yixia: "If I minded, I wouldn't have made the trip to Beijing to find her... It's her who minds this matter, not me..."
"And then?" Lu Yixia slightly raised his eyebrows and asked Shen Shi seriously: "Just because she can't accept it, you're going to give up? You don't want to make even a little effort or try?"
"But she said..." Shen Shi hesitated a bit, and though the words were on the tip of his tongue, he still didn't say them.
"She told you that it's absolutely impossible between you two, that she can't accept such a thing, thinks there's no hope for you, yada yada, and then she turned around and left?" Lu Yixia, seeing Shen Shi's hesitance, casually asked him.
