Ke Qing was the first friend Jiang Shang made here. At first, Ke Qing sat at the entrance with his head lowered, playing games and ignoring her completely. The more she talked, the more his dark, vacant eyes would slowly slide to the side, then lift at an unhurried pace and fix on her, staring… He wanted to tell her to stop talking, but thought saying anything would be too much trouble, so his face grew thoroughly conflicted. In the end, too much of a hassle, he said nothing. Later, when Ke Qing gave her a look that said, "You're so annoying," Jiang Shang smiled at him. His lashes fluttered, and his gaze drifted back to the game. A few minutes later, he said in a flat, indistinct voice, "Jiang Shang is an idiot."
