"What's a pity? What's so scary about us being friends? You like men, not women. My fiancé may be jealous, but he knows your sexual orientation. He can't be your love rival, and he won't be hostile towards you. So we can still be friends."
Xiao Qian interrupted Li Zhen's thoughts.
Li Zhen was both amused and annoyed by her words.
"You know it's not what I meant—"}
"Oh, so you're afraid I'll be jealous and that you'll get along well with my Xiao Qiang? That's even more impossible. Although you two are cousins, and Shi Touyu has drawn many such gay comics with the label 'forbidden love,' it's all misleading. Rabbits don't eat grass near their nests!"
"I didn't mean that!" Li Zhen hadn't realized before that Xiao Qian was so good at changing the subject.
"So you mean you're afraid that if you get along with Yu Minglang, I'd be jealous? Rest assured, as long as I'm here, he won't fall in love with any man or woman. I still have that much confidence."
