Having said this, Xia Chuyi also sighed and said, "Even parents and elders are , let alone our peers."
When Xia Chuyi spoke, her tone and expressions were very serious, which caught Ou Jun off guard for a moment.
After a brief silence, Ou Jun finally spoke up, unable to resist asking her, "Does your mother favor sons over daughters?"
"Huh?" Xia Chuyi didn't know why Ou Jun was suddenly focusing on her, but she just shrugged and told him, "There's no helping it, where we're from, favoring sons over daughters is quite common."
"In many families, girls are abandoned at birth, bundled into a winnowing basket, and then discarded in the wilderness."
Ou Jun's expression immediately turned ugly.
"Those people should all die!"
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi was slightly stunned, not expecting Ou Jun's reaction to be so intense.
Xia Chuyi quickly said, "My situation is actually quite good. My family didn't mistreat me, and my uncle has been very kind to me."
Ou Jun looked at her with an expression that shifted several times before finally saying, "Chuyi, you are an optimistic and strong child." Find the newest release on novel⚑fire.net
Hearing Ou Jun describe her that way, Xia Chuyi immediately smiled and said, "What else can I do?"
"The deeper one is stuck in the mire, the more they need to stay strong to survive."
"However, as long as one is willing to work hard, nothing is impossible to change."
Talking to Brother Ou, Xia Chuyi found herself unintentionally voicing her innermost thoughts.
Realizing she had been somewhat "presumptuous", she immediately touched her head with embarrassment and said to Ou Jun, "Oh my, Brother Ou, we were talking about your situation, how did it end up about me?"
Xia Chuyi felt quite awkward.
Then, Xia Chuyi immediately returned to the main topic, telling Ou Jun, "Anyway, I think if you are genuine with 'Ou Jiao' Miss, with sincerity comes the power to touch her heart, she will one day, surely understand the depth of Brother Ou's affection!"
Xia Chuyi spoke with certainty.
"But if in the end it doesn't work out, then it could only be said to be due to fate, Brother Ou, you shouldn't force it, nor should you be too hard on yourself."
Lastly, Xia Chuyi added.
Ou Jun looked at her, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
Truth be told, Ou Jun had thought that Xia Chuyi's persuasion would be ineffective on him.
Yet miraculously, he ended up taking it to heart.
After a while, Ou Jun sincerely said to Xia Chuyi, "Chuyi, thank you."
Seeing that Brother Ou seemed to be in a much better mood, Xia Chuyi waved her hands and replied, "Brother Ou, there's no need to thank me, I really didn't do much!"
She said earnestly, "Actually, it's me who should be thanking you. I received a lot of care from you in the Capital City."
Seeing how serious Xia Chuyi was, Ou Jun opened his mouth, about to say something.
She cut in first, "Of course, I know that Brother Ou, you were asked by Huo Shiqian."
"But still, I want to thank you!"
"At least with you looking out for me, Ou Cong and Ou Lianlian couldn't keep troubling me."
Towards the end of her sentence, Xia Chuyi couldn't help but smile warmly.
Seeing her , Ou Jun shook his head and said, "My brother and sister have indeed caused you trouble."
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi blinked and thought to herself: Eh, now that I think about it, Brother Ou is actually quite pitiable.
Look, Ou Cong is quite a handful, isn't he?
And Ou Lianlian is also very troubling...
