Qin Yaoguang froze. She stared at He Chengjian for a long time before muttering, "Why? What problems do we need to solve? Tell me, I'll definitely change … "
He Chengjian wasn't a young man who had just fallen in love. Now that he saw that Qin Yaoguang was almost fifty years old and was still talking like an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, he found it even more ridiculous.
He said calmly, "I'm already so old. If I could change, I would have changed long ago."
This sentence was like a giant meteorite falling from the sky, smashing Qin Yaoguang until she was dizzy and her face flushed red.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Wen Shouyi hurriedly said, "You guys go in and talk. I'll ask the doctor if I can be discharged."
She didn't want to witness Qin Yaoguang's embarrassing side here.
Qin Yaoguang had already ordered her around as a servant. If she didn't know what to do, she probably wouldn't even be able to be a servant anymore.
After Wen Shouyi left, Qin Yaoguang heaved a sigh of relief. She did not want to expose her unbearable side to others.
In her life, she had only lowered her head in front of He Chengjian.
He Chengjian thought for a moment before following her into Qin Yaoguang's ward and sitting down in front of her.
"Brother He, really, you can't be like this." Qin Yaoguang's eyes gradually turned red, and she spoke very slowly. "How did I make you angry? I really don't understand. Others might not know how I've treated you all these years, but don't tell me you don't know? "
He Chengjian was touched when he thought about how Qin Yaoguang had waited for him for decades.
But that was all. He was not moved to the extent of having feelings for her.
"You were indeed very good to me at first." He Chengjian sighed. "But you treated your own daughter …"
"Big Brother He! Could it be because of Nianzhi?! "Qin Yaoguang's heart sank, and she became even more nervous." Is it because of Nianzhi?! "
"Yes." He Chengjian was very honest with her. "What you promised me was all against my will. You know, I usually don't think badly of others, but once I find out that they're not what they seem to be, I'll definitely think of the worst."
That is to say, he would not prejudge anyone as a bad person until he found out what was really bad about the person.
Qin Yaoguang was so angry and anxious that she couldn't even speak clearly. "Brother He! I had no choice! When I see her, I can't control myself! "
He Chengjian frowned slightly. "I don't understand."
"… As soon as I saw her, I felt like I'd betrayed you …" Qin Yaoguang's eyes were brimming with tears. Her exquisite lips kept opening and closing, making one feel pity for her.
He Chengjian was stunned. He looked up and said, "No way? When you saw Nianzhi, why did you feel like you betrayed me? "
"Because I'm yours. I'm yours alone, but I gave birth to a child with someone else …" Qin Yaoguang held her chest. "Brother He, is it because of this that you don't want to be with me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" He Chengjian finally understood and was speechless. "If it weren't for Nianzhi, you would never have had the chance to marry into the He family. I hope you understand that. "
Qin Yaoguang's eyes dimmed in an instant. She was silent for a long time before saying, "So all the things I've done for you all these years aren't as useful as Gu Nianzhi?"
He Chengjian stood up and said coldly, "You saved Ah-Chu. Suwen and I are both grateful to you. This will never change, but it doesn't mean that you can do whatever you want. You know me. I'm clear about public and private matters, and I won't mix them up. "
Qin Yaoguang's face was pale, and she smiled sadly. "How did I do whatever I wanted? Didn't I just block a few of Gu Nianzhi's jobs? Is it worth making such a big deal out of it? "
"You still think you're right?" He Chengjian realized that Qin Yaoguang was really confused. "You think you only blocked a few of Nianzhi's jobs, but to me, you made me break my promise. You call this making a big deal out of nothing? "
Who was He Chengjian?
The highest leader of the Huaxia Empire's military, a person whose words carried weight.
"But Gu Nianzhi is my daughter." Qin Yaoguang was still indignant. "I'm doing it for her own good. What's the point of being in that place? Only when she can't survive in C City will she think of coming back to beg us. Only then will she obediently marry Zhichu. Brother He, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? "
The more He Chengjian listened, the more annoyed he became. "What do you mean? In your eyes, is my son that bad? Do you have to use such a shameful method to force Nianzhi to submit?! How can she really fall in love with him if you do this?! Qin Yaoguang, are you really an earthworm that has turned into a spirit? Not only have your intestines been penetrated to the end, but even your brain has been penetrated! "
"What did you say?!" Qin Yaoguang's expression changed drastically. She looked at He Chengjian in disbelief. "How did you know?! You sent someone to spy on me?! You have a video?! "
Qin Yaoguang immediately understood what the problem was when she heard "an earthworm that has turned into a spirit".
This was the greatest humiliation in her life, second only to He Chengjian breaking off his engagement.
He Chengjian smiled. "Spy on you? You're overthinking it. I only did this to protect Nianzhi. If I didn't do this, I really wouldn't have known that you treated Nianzhi so badly. "
He approached her. "Qin Yaoguang, what are you thinking? Gu Nianzhi is your biological daughter! What do you want by making things difficult for her? Can't you just turn a blind eye to her like you did before? "
Qin Yaoguang collapsed on the sofa and took two deep breaths. She turned her head and said, "Alright, stop talking. If we're separated, then so be it. We also need to calm down."
He Chengjian nodded. "Okay, hurry up and send someone to take your things away. I won't see you for now. "
He turned to leave, but Qin Yaoguang said faintly from behind him, "… You … You don't want me anymore?"
He Chengjian didn't turn around. With his back facing Qin Yaoguang, he frowned imperceptibly and said, "Back then, our engagement was the idea of our parents. I told you clearly from the beginning that I didn't have feelings for you."
"… But didn't you know that I fell in love with you at first sight?" Qin Yaoguang's voice was exceptionally sad and fragile.
She had thought that even if she didn't feel anything at first, she would definitely feel something in the future.
She wasn't wrong to think that way. There weren't many couples who fell in love at first sight. Most people fell in love with each other over time.
"But after I met Suwen, I finally understood what it felt like to truly love someone." He Chengjian looked up at the voice-activated light at the door of the ward. "I still remember the first time I saw her."
"That day was the first day of school at B University. I had something to do and passed by B University. I saw everyone picking up the new students. I saw a back figure in the crowd that looked almost exactly like you. I thought it was you, so I went over and patted her shoulder to stop her."
When Qin Suwen turned around, He Chengjian knew that he had recognized the wrong person because the two of them looked completely different.
She looked at He Chengjian in surprise and asked in amusement, "What can I do for you?"
Her voice was very pleasant to the ears. It was crisp and tender with a hint of magnetism. Although she wasn't very good-looking, she was calm and polite.
He Chengjian saw that he had recognized the wrong person and quickly apologized to her.
She didn't mind. She smiled heartily and waved at him. Then, she dragged a large, shabby suitcase into the crowd.
That was the first time they had met. He Chengjian didn't take it to heart at first. He just thought it was funny that someone's back view was so similar.
When he came back and told Qin Yaoguang about it, the two of them laughed for a long time.
The next time he saw Qin Suwen was at the debate competition at B University.
He had originally gone to support Qin Yaoguang, but he was captivated by Qin Suwen's eloquence.
That night, all the lights were focused on her, making her unattractive face look even more radiant.
He Chengjian began to pay attention to her. He even appeared by her side intentionally or unintentionally and became friends with her.
Unknowingly, his attention to her had changed.
When he realized that he had truly fallen in love with this unprepossessing but extremely intelligent girl, he immediately explained the situation to his father and then broke off the engagement with the Qin family.
At first, Qin Yaoguang didn't know that he had fallen in love with Qin Suwen. She thought that he had fallen in love with the daughter of another aristocratic family, so she had been very remorseful.
Because at that time, with the Qin family's background, her engagement with He Chengjian was a proper way to climb the social ladder.
Hearing He Chengjian reminisce about the past, Qin Yaoguang's expression became even more dismal.
She lowered her head and wiped her tears with the back of her hand. She sobbed and said, "So after all these years of hard work and sacrifice, I still couldn't move you. I was the one who met you first … "
"Actually, I told you a long time ago that you don't have to waste your time on me. At that time, there were so many people pursuing you. Even that lunatic … genius had a soft spot for you. Why can't you let it go? "
At that time, Qin Yaoguang was indeed a popular figure on campus. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also very smart. She was a school belle in medical school, and she was engaged to He Chengjian. In the eyes of her classmates, she was a winner in life.
However, He Chengjian suddenly broke off the engagement with her and turned to pursue Qin Suwen, which made Qin Yaoguang disheartened.
She couldn't stay in school anymore, so she had no choice but to transfer abroad to complete her medical degree.
It was also because of He Chengjian's guilt towards Qin Yaoguang that the He family became the Qin family's help, allowing them to obtain a lot of benefits.
If it weren't for the He family, the Qin family wouldn't have been able to develop to its current scale in more than 20 years.
"It was indeed my fault for breaking off the engagement back then, but in the past 20 to 30 years, your Qin family has already received enough benefits from our He family." He Chengjian was a little impatient. "Even if you had married me back then, your Qin family would have only received so many benefits. So, to be honest, I don't owe you anything. "
Qin Yaoguang choked for a moment. She lowered her head and said, "… You only know how to talk about benefits, but what about my feelings? After all these years, you really don't owe me any feelings? "
"I can't help that." He Chengjian opened the door to the ward. "I tried to accept you. Otherwise, why would I marry you? I even agreed to let you use my frozen sperm to do a test tube baby."
"If that test tube had succeeded, would you not have been so heartless?" Qin Yaoguang wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
She had used He Chengjian's frozen sperm to fuse with her own egg cells to make four or five fertilized eggs. Only one of them had successfully implanted in her body.
However, two months after the successful pregnancy, she had a natural miscarriage.
She had once been so successful, but it was in this matter that she was extremely frustrated.
Most people would choose to get up from where they had fallen.
But she, on the other hand, fell into the same pit over and over again.
He Chengjian said calmly, "But it didn't work. This means that we're really not suitable for each other. I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. "
He left Qin Yaoguang's ward. Qin Yaoguang looked at his back, her face blank.
..
The next day was Monday. Gu Nianzhi brought the copy of the bid she had made and went to work in high spirits.
She arrived at the second floor of the Lu Corporation building early. She saw that Jin Dazhuang and the receptionist, Xiao Zhang, were even earlier than her. She smiled and said, "You guys are also very nervous?"
"Of course! This bid document concerns whether or not I, Xiao Zhang, will be able to make a comeback from now on. I'll be a carp that leaps through the dragon gate and successfully ascend to the front desk of a big law firm! " Xiao Zhang held Gu Nianzhi's hand, his eyes shining with excitement. He touched the folder in her hand. "I just turned the Koi today. I'll share some good luck with your bid document."
