Feng Nu said, "It's okay. Nian Bing is a good guy and he cooks well. We are friends, actually, we haven't known each other for very long, maybe less than half a year now."
"Less than half a year?" Zi Qingjian's voice betrayed a hint of excitement.
Feng Nu gave a faint smile and said, "Even though we haven't known each other for long, we are very similar, we both have goals that we pursue unswervingly. He is like that, and so am I. So, we can only be friends, just like you and me." She glanced at Zi Qingjian knowingly before closing her bright blue eyes and saying no more.
Zi Qingjian was startled. Though he was a bit naive, he wasn't stupid, he naturally perceived the implication of Feng Nu's words. However, this did not deter him. In fact, it made him more hopeful. He thought that perhaps because Nian Bing would not become entangled with Feng Nu, she might be more willing to grow closer to him.
