บท 19: You Deserve Someone Better

Before she even finished speaking, the atmosphere dampened immediately.

"It's okay, Fanxing. Who has not loved a jerk in their youth? Remember how you comforted me when I broke up in university?"

"…"

Speechless, emotions flashed across Shen Fanxing's eyes, causing a sigh from Xu Qingzhi. She whispered,

"Su Heng is just a passerby in your life. There is no need for you to dwell too much on him. Given your exceptional qualities, you definitely deserve someone better."

She deserved someone better…

Her grip on the phone tightened, as a distant yet familiar face flashed through her mind.

Even though it was only momentary, her lips turned upwards.

It seemed that the anger had made her lose her sense of rationality, to the point where she could think of such seemingly unrelated things.

"Fanxing… are you alright?"

Shen Fanxing snapped out of her trance and replied,"… I'm fine. I just feel that… you're right."
