A man's pride is a strange thing.
Wang Yunxiao doesn't care if others call him poor, ugly, or an uncultured lowlife.
But he cares deeply about Eldest Miss Li's pity.
Even though Li Mumu has never done such a thing.
Eldest Miss Li never discriminates against the elderly, weak, sick, or disabled; she always treats everyone equally, never judging based on wealth.
But deep down, Wang Yunxiao knows the vast gap between him and Li Mumu.
If Li Mumu had only said, "I'll lend you five hundred bucks, don't worry about paying it back," he might not have resisted much, just self-mockingly thinking that the rich lady didn't see him as a person.
But what Li Mumu said was, "Can't you even muster the courage to borrow money? Worried you can't repay it? You don't even have this little courage and still think of dating me..."
Those words utterly shattered Wang Yunxiao's defenses.
Only the truth could hurt so deeply.
