Chapter 822: Qin Chuan’s Feelings (1)
“Secondly, I’ve already allocated my assets. After I die, all my property and real estate will belong to Qin Yufan. However, all the companies and businesses under my name will go to you. You’re the son of the Qin family. You will inherit the Qin Group. After all, Yufan will get married in the future. The Qin Group must not be handed into someone else’s hands.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan asked Qin Hongzhi: “Is the Qin Group really more important than your own life?”
Qin Hongzhi nodded: “Yes, it’s the foundation of the Qin family. It is indeed more important than my life.”
As Qin Chuan looked at Qin Hongzhi, his hatred for him suddenly dissipated.
He used to hate Qin Hongzhi because he had abandoned him and his mother.
But now he realized that for the sake of the Qin Group, Qin Hongzhi could even give up his own life.
Therefore, what was the point of hating him?
It wasn’t because he and his mother weren’t important. Rather, it was merely because the Qin Group meant everything to Qin Hongzhi.
After Qin Chuan left Qin Hongzhi’s ward, he decided to go and look for Jian Yiling.
To his surprise, it appeared as though Jian Yiling had already known that he would go and look for her.
“I don’t want the equity of the Qin family. However, you must promise me one thing.”
“What is it?” Qin Chuan asked as he looked at Jian Yiling. There was always a strange feeling in his heart.
“I want you to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you will not harm the Jian family,” Jian Yiling replied.
“Why do you think I would harm the Qin family?” Qin Chuan asked with furrowed brows. He did not understand Jian Yiling’s words. Upon hearing her words, a stifling feeling appeared in his heart.
It seemed as though a heavy stone was pressing down on his heart.
“I had a dream. The dream was incredibly realistic,” Jian Yiling explained.
“And in your dream, did I harm the Jian family?”
“Yes.”
“Is that the reason why you’ve been keeping your distance from me all this time?”
All along, he could vaguely sense that Jian Yiling was keeping her distance from him. Furthermore, at times, he felt like Jian Yiling was afraid of him.
He never knew the reason for this. In fact, he just assumed that Jian Yiling did not like him as a person.
Jian Yiling paused for a moment before she nodded.
Upon seeing this, Qin Chuan smiled bitterly. Then, he said: “So… I lost to a dream?”
In the past, he assumed that the two of them simply did not get along.
He just blamed it on destiny.
After all, you couldn’t force someone to like you.
However, he never expected that the reason for all of this was a mere dream.
The truth was difficult for him to accept.
“You didn’t lose,” Jian Yiling said.
Jian Yiling did not know what Qin Chuan meant by “losing.”
Qin Chuan: “I remember you asked me for a promise when you starting treating my mother. Back then, were you worried that I’d hurt you and your family or something?”
Jian Yiling could not deny this. Therefore, she nodded again.
Qin Chuan’s smile became more bitter as he said: “I can accept that you dislike me. However, it’s really difficult for me to accept that this is all because of a dream.”
“What if the dream was a memory from a past life?” Jian Yiling asked.
Jian Yiling did not know how to explain this matter. She wasn’t very good at expressing herself when it came to these things.
“Even if it’s a memory from a past life, what does it have to do with me right now? You’re basically accusing me based on groundless assumptions. That’s not fair to me.”
He liked her, but he also knew that she did not like him.
And thus, he never expressed these feelings of his.
He never wanted to bother her.
When he saw her together with Zhai Yunsheng, he merely gave them his blessings from afar.
