"Um... I'm sorry..."
"I'm sorry..."
After a prolonged silence, they both spoke at the same time. Having said that, they were both stunned. They exchanged a glance and then burst into laughter.
Xu Qingqiu also pretended to forget what had just happened and sat down beside Chu Tian. They both simply smiled, quietly watching the small fish swim to and fro in the pond before them.
Eventually, Chu Tian broke the silence:
"Sorry, my temper might not have been great today. I said some harsh things; please don't take it to heart."
Xu Qingqiu waved her hands frantically.
"Not at all, not at all..."
Halfway through her sentence, perhaps realizing she was being a bit insincere, she hesitated for a moment, then chuckled and said, "It was indeed quite direct, and it really made me feel bad."
"It feels like I've seldom had experiences like this since my debut. For a moment, it was like being a trainee again. Do you remember Song? He used to say things much worse than you did..."
