Chapter 135 Rejection
Mu Xiaoxi looked at Shen Li, hoping that he could take off his mask, but Shen Li didn't respond.

She felt a little disappointed, because she hoped to know the real Shen Li, not a masked him.

I hope it is the person in my imagination, not the person named Shen Li.

Shen Li looked at Mu Xiaoxi with some conflicts in his heart.

He knew he was wearing a mask because he didn't want to be recognized, and he didn't have the courage to let her see his real self.

But he also knew that if he didn't take off his mask, the relationship between him and Mu Xiaoxi could only remain at the level of friends.

He was silent for a while, but finally did not take off his mask.

He looked at Mu Xiaoxi and said softly, "Xiaoxi, I know you want to know the real me, but I don't have the courage to let others see the real me."

After hearing what he said, Mu Xiaoxi felt a little disappointed.

She knew that she couldn't force Shen Li, and she also understood that Shen Li's past had caused him great harm.

She stood there quietly, thinking.

In the end, it was denied that Shen Li was Shen Ye. If it was Shen Ye, he would definitely take off his mask and be with him.

It's just that she wasn't ready yet, even if it was Shen Ye, she didn't know if she would accept it.

In the end, she decided to be friends with Shen Li.She thinks that Shen Li is a good person, and they can share each other's stories and feelings together, but the relationship between them can only stay at the level of friends.

She smiled and said, "Shen Li, I think you are a good person, we can be friends."

After hearing her words, Shen Li was a little moved.

He knew that Mu Xiaoxi's decision was not easy, and he also knew that he was lucky to know her.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiaoxi. I also think you are a good person, and I am very happy to be friends with you."

They sat under the cherry tree, enjoying the warmth of this friendship.

In this romantic scene, they know each other's heart and their boundaries.

They know that no matter what the future holds, they will always be each other's friends.

Although the relationship between Mu Xiaoxi and Shen Li was only at the level of friends, the atmosphere between them became a little awkward.

They sat silently under the cherry tree, without talking, only the faint sound of the wind and the singing of the birds.

Finally, Mu Xiaoxi broke the silence.She said: "Shen Li, I should go. There are still things to deal with tomorrow."

Shen Li nodded, but did not speak.Looking at Mu Xiaoxi's leaving back, he felt a little sad.

He knew that his past had hindered his relationship with Mu Xiaoxi, and he also knew that he needed more time to face his heart.

Mu Xiaoxi turned around, looked at Shen Li, and said, "Shen Li, we are still friends, right?"

Shen Li nodded, smiled and said, "Of course, we are friends."

Mu Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Okay, I should go. Goodbye."

Shen Li looked at her leaving back, feeling a little complicated in his heart.

He didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, he knew that the relationship between Shen Li and Mu Xiaoxi could only stay at the level of friends.

What if it was Shen Ye?Could it be just this level?

He sat quietly under the cherry blossom tree, recalling the little things between him and Mu Xiaoxi.

Finally, he stood up and took a deep breath.

He knew that Mu Xiaoxi was not ready yet, and it was not time for him to confess his identity.
