Capítulo 159: Best Friends

"Really?" Shen Jiayi asked.

When she saw Gu Yan nod, Shen Jiayi's face didn't look too good.

She was well aware that prior to Gu Yan's arrival at the capital, the latter wasn't acquainted with Shen Nana. The conflict between them probably arose during the incident at the book shop.

If it weren't for Shen Nana's constant ill-treatment, Gu Yan might not have involved herself with her troubles. Then, perhaps no seed of discord would grow between Gu Yan and Shen Nana.

A sense of guilt got the better of Shen Jiayi. "Gu Yan, sorry…"

"That is why you can't remain timid for the rest of your life. You need to become strong. That way, if Shen Nana wants to bully me again, you can protect me too." Gu Yan let out a warm smile. Her eyes were dazzling like the sun.

Shen Jiayi was stunned. "M-me? Protect you?"

"Yes, aren't we friends already?" Gu Yan suddenly put on an angry expression. "Wait, did you not consider us friends?"
