Xu Wendong stood there, bewildered.
He hadn't expected Nie Xiaoyu to ask such a question.
Although he felt Nie Xiaoyu had some fondness for him, he hadn't considered changing their purely classmate-like bond, which was his most precious and beautiful memory from middle school.
Just as he was at a loss, Nie Xiaoyu's voice came again, her eyes full of nervousness and apprehension: "I know I'm not good enough for you, but in my heart, you're the closest person to me in this world."

She genuinely wanted to strengthen their relationship.

Xu Wendong said, "Xiaoyu, you are an excellent and strong girl. You haven't been defeated by life's various hardships, which is something many people can't achieve."
"As for not being worthy of me..."
