Zhou Rou couldn't hold back her tears. "I didn't mean to, I swear! Sometimes, I really hate who I've become now! But can you guys not be mad at me, please?

Let bygones be bygones! From now on, we're still good friends, alright?"
Li Si sighed. Even the strongest friendships could hardly withstand repeated hurt and attacks. But no one's perfect, and giving someone another chance was also giving herself a chance. She stood up, picked up her glass, and chose to believe her this one last time.
