Standing at the entrance of the camera store, after hearing Shen Yubai's words, Xu Chuning was momentarily stunned for a few seconds. She lowered her gaze, looking at the bag being handed to her, her lips parted slightly, "No need."
She was refusing Shen Yubai's "unequal kindness".
Shen Yubai's expression shifted subtly, his tone calm: "Why?"
Xu Chuning raised her eyes, "…Unearned wealth should not be accepted."
Her reason for refusing was sufficient.
Shen Yubai lowered his eyes, and stared at her for a while: "Are you sure?"
Xu Chuning: "Mhm, for one, I am not the top of our class this time, and secondly, the gift is too expensive. You've already given me a scroll of calligraphy."
