"Good. You have a clear perception of yourself. Always keep that in mind!" Edward said, raising an eyebrow. Since Rain was obedient to him, he decided to let Rain in peace.

"Hey guys, have I done something to you all to deserve that?! Why did you mock me one after another?" Rain felt sad and dejected at this moment and thought to himself, 'Why is it always me who's being bullied?'
"The evil will be defeated even when good men don't do anything." Tom couldn't help but put Rain down. Everybody laughed at his words, which made Rain feel even worse about himself.
