Daniel glanced at the news article that Maisie was writing—a piece she had copied from a senior.

Maisie looked concerned. "Is it bad? It always feels too deliberate when I copy. I just don't like it, no matter how I look at it."

"I think it's not bad." Daniel smiled after reading. "It's organized with clear points, and the writing is smooth. It's just the words you used are not poignant enough. It's too soft."

"Are you sincerely complimenting me?" Maisie asked as he played with her hair, his eyes filled with allure.

He shared his honest thoughts, "When writing an article, especially those by journalists, you need an attitude that isn't afraid of offending people. It's impossible to take care of everyone's feelings.

Maisie pondered. "Oh..."

"Don't worry about making enemies," he assured. "One must have a couple of enemies to live in this world!"

"So that's why you said you're not a good person?" she asked.

"Hmm. I indeed had many enemies before," he admitted. "But I don't have many now. I'm trying my best to build good relationships with people."

"Why?"
