"There are no outsiders around. It's still a mystery whether Old Man Li was angered to death by Li Ronghuan or by Mrs. Li."
"The rumor that Li Chuhai's death has something to do with Mrs. Li is spreading like wildfire. Some say that Li Chuhai escaped from the country as a criminal and was punished by the law because Mrs. Li asked him to come back. Others say that Li Chuhai committed a heinous crime and was targeted and reported to the authorities. He escaped from the country and was shot dead by the police. "
Xia Jinyuan's eyes darkened when he heard this. It was just a rumor, but the truth of the matter could be found after some details were cut out.
So the person who spread these rumors must know something. Then … Xia Jinyuan's heart suddenly turned cold. He said to Qin Xiu, "We'll go up the mountain to enjoy the scenery another day. Let's call it a day."
He had to ask his old man right away. The rumors outside were not clear, but his old man had definitely investigated it thoroughly!
Qin Xiu invited Xia Jinyuan out for a walk. His real intention was to talk about Ye Chien. Before they could talk, Xia Jinyuan was in a hurry to leave. Qin Xiu raised his hand and grabbed the iron chain that was covered with snow. His movement was a little big, and the iron chain connected to the small stone pillars on both sides swayed. Strips of snow fell off, revealing the rusty iron chain.
"When do you and Ye Chien plan to get married?" He suddenly asked. His jawline was slightly tense. His elegant and handsome face looked calm, but his heart was in pain when he asked the question.
It was cruel to ask the girl he liked when she would marry someone else.
Qin Xiu wanted to use such a cruel method to end his feelings for Ye Chien. It had been too long, really too long. It had been so long that he was used to silently liking Ye Chien and was used to looking at her photos before going to bed every day. It had been so long that … he thought that he would only like her in this lifetime.
As his sister said, it was too painful to like a girl who was already taken. He had liked her for so long, and it was time to let go. He wanted to let go very, very much. He wanted to try letting go.
Even if it was cruel to himself, he had to do it.
Xia Jinyuan, who was about to leave the mountain, did not expect Qin Xiu to ask him when he and Ye Chien would get married. If he had not suddenly come and left in the morning and let him know that he was still thinking about Ye Chien, he would have been fooled by him and thought that he had already given up on Ye Chien.
Qin Xiu asked a question that would hurt Xia Jinyuan. Xia Jinyuan admired Qin Xiu's gentlemanly demeanor at this moment. Knowing that Qin Xiu was thinking about his girlfriend, Xia Jinyuan didn't hate Qin Xiu at all.
From the very beginning, Qin Xiu was a gentleman.
If it were him, it would be very difficult for him to do what Qin Xiu did.
She replied with a smile, "She just graduated last year and is still working hard on her career. There's no hurry. Marriage should take a few more years."
It would take a few more years …
Qin Xiu lowered his eyebrows to hide the awkwardness in his eyes. "Why don't you get married early? You can still work hard on your career after getting married. "
After getting married, he would be able to ruthlessly cut off his feelings for Ye Chien.
"Jane Er wants to get married a few years later. I respect her decision. Getting married a few years later won't affect our relationship, so let's get married a few years later. I don't want to make her unhappy because of marriage. I'll do whatever she wants. "
Although he admired Qin Xiu's gentlemanly demeanor, he still had to be cautious. He could not let his guard down.
