Sheng Tang understood this type of phobia better than others, so she could also understand Jiang Baocu.
"...Am I being unreasonable?" She cried, asking Sheng Tang, "They asked me why I didn't want to participate, how do I explain?"
"You're not unreasonable," Sheng Tang said, "This is your psychological shadow, you didn't do anything wrong. I'm sorry, I haven't been a good friend, I always thought you were just nervous."
Jiang Baocu hugged her tightly.
"What should I do, Sheng Tang, I still have a performance coming up, I'm afraid I can't hold on!" Jiang Baocu cried.
Sheng Tang patted her on the back.
If it were the previous arrangement, slipping away would be fine, but now there were leaders present, and all the students and teachers were there. If Jiang Baocu slipped away, it would be a major incident.
Moreover, she was afraid to speak her reasons aloud.
She would face criticism and be labeled as "discriminatory," ensuring future gossip.
