"Then what is it?"
Lu Mei raised her head, her red, swollen eyes staring at him.
"Zhang Yi, if you don't have feelings for me, just say so."
"I, Lu Mei, am not the type to cling desperately."
"It's not a rejection. It's that I also have feelings for someone else. I don't know if you can accept that,"
Zhang Yi said all in a rush.
The air froze once again.
Lu Mei was stunned.
She had imagined many possibilities, such as:
Zhang Yi wanted to focus on his path to godhood, waiting until he became a Powerful Divine Being before considering such things;
Zhang Yi's feelings for her weren't strong enough, that he didn't like her;
That after going to Tianya Academy, he would need to focus on his studies…
But she never, ever imagined,
that Zhang Yi's hesitation was actually for this reason.
"Someone else?"
"Who is it?!"
Lu Mei's voice turned cold.
"Is it the Royal Princess Sofia from the Holy Roman Federation?"
