Shang Ruyi was taken aback by his remarks.
His words were both considerate and harsh, making it hard to discern at the moment if he was a gentle, understanding person, or a distant, aloof one.
But there's no denying, he was also a clear-headed person.
Helping others, but never at one's own expense.
Actually, this is for the best; people should be like this, clearer in mind, to suffer less harm.
If only I could be as clear-minded as him.
"Thank you," Shang Ruyi said hoarsely.
Yang Suyi smiled faintly, glanced at her, then looked up at the mountains shrouded in misty rain outside the pavilion, and the winding river, and slowly said, "Let's enjoy the view."
So, the two of them just sat in the pavilion like that, quietly watching the scenery outside.
The wind and rain intertwined, not pouring down, yet hiding countless human thoughts within the tranquility, whether wanting or not, Shang Ruyi eventually calmed down.
