He rejected her, saying he didn't want to date right now.
He said she was still young and shouldn't focus on dating, but should study more and improve herself.
He said all his attention was on work at the moment.
He also said that even if he was looking for a partner, it couldn't be her.
She asked, "Why?"
In his heart, is she really that bad?
Is it because she has defects?
She does have some flaws, but she has worked really hard.
Worked hard to make herself perfect.
He answered, "My parents helped me have my fortune told, and I need to find a girl three years older than me, otherwise, I'll have a short life."
This answer hurt more than saying he disliked her for being disabled.
"You actually believe that?" she looked at him incredulously.
He seriously looked her in the eye and said, "I'd rather believe it than not; I don't want to have a short life."
Tang Li's heart twisted in pain, "Are you telling me that dating me would shorten your life? Would I bring you bad luck?"
