Chapter 873: Return to Qingning City (1)
"Stop! Stop! Tingting, Tingting, calm down, calm down. I know you’re, uh... flexible, and all that. Just take it easy, have some water." An Yiqing hurriedly picked up Gu Tingting’s coffee and thrust it into her hands without explanation, watching her down it in one gulp.
"Ah, Qingqing, what should I do... I’ve never been in love before, nor have I ever liked any man, Big Brother An is the first, sob sob..." Gu Tingting downed the coffee in one gulp, her head drooping in defeat like a beaten hen as she laid it on the table, "I feel like my life is in darkness, if I can’t win over Big Brother An, I have a premonition that I will definitely lose happiness..."
Seeing Gu Tingting so disheartened, An Yiqing felt a twinge of pity. The three of them had known each other for almost a year and had lived intimately under the same roof for a few months. An Yiqing had always been very fond of the lively and adorable Tingting, truly treating her like a younger sister and protecting her as such. Now, seeing Tingting normally so sharp-witted lose her confidence, An Yiqing felt it necessary to properly correct Tingting’s thinking.
"Tingting, lift your head and listen to me."
An Yiqing reached out, lifted Gu Tingting’s head from the table, and looked sternly into her watery eyes.
"Tingting, the reason why so many people like you is because you are Gu Tingting herself, not the shadow of anyone else."
An Yiqing paused, then continued, "As a sister, I am glad that you like my Big Brother so much. But as your best friend, I don’t want you to forget yourself in the process of loving someone. Tingting, you need to understand that love should be mutual, deserving of admiration and respect. A relationship where you lose yourself will not last."
