Xiao Qian was originally racking her brain, trying to figure out a way to break through Lily Tang’s defenses so she could accept her therapy.

But she never thought that her talkative, menopausal mother would just step in and easily unlock Lily Tang’s heart.

“In truth, your father, is just as concerned for you as my mother is for me.”

Upon hearing Xiao Qian mention ‘father’, Lily Tang made a face.

“Forget it, all he sees is money. He’s so busy every day ignoring me and even encourages me to go on blind dates with strangers.”

“Blind dates?”

Odd, this part doesn’t seem to have happened in her past life.

Xiao Qian didn’t remember Lily Tang getting married. In her past life, Lily Tang came to her for treatment years later, when she was almost 30 and her love life still wasn’t settled.

That is to say, the blind dates were unsuccessful.

“Yes, why do you think he brought me to Qiang City? It’s because when he was younger and living in the countryside, he had a friend who was a sent-down youth. He wanted me to meet his son. I’ve said time and time again that I don’t want to have a blind date. He insisted on forcing me to come over here. I hate him.”

“Maybe your father is worried about your health, and wants you to find a boyfriend to distract you, so you could eat more.”

“Not at all! He’s just dreadful. He want me to go on blind dates for his own benefit! That friend of his holds a government position, and he wants to marry me off in a political alliance. I won’t let him have his way.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qian immediately asked with caution.

“What’s the surname of that friend?”

“Zhu why are you asking about this?”

Xiao Qian sighed with relief. Thank god, the surname isn’t Yu. It has nothing to do with her own Yu Minglang.

“My boyfriend also lives here, so I was just curious if I might know him.”

“I’ve made up my mind not to please my father. Whatever he wants me to do, I’ll do the opposite. Anyway, he doesn’t care about me anymore.”

Xiao Qian looked at her, and with a smile on her face, she listened to her, encouraging Lily to vent her frustrations. It’s a good sign when an introverted person is willing to express their inner troubles.

After Lily Tang complained about her father to Xiao Qian for a while, she suddenly seemed to realize something, and said shyly.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have told you all this. It’s added to your troubles.”

“No, it’s fine. Hearing about the secret past of China’s rich is interesting. Shuixian, aren’t you afraid I’ll sell this story to a gossip magazine?”

Lily Tang shook her head, “You wouldn’t. You said I am your friend. I’m pretty good at reading people.”

No wonder she’s the daughter of a wealthy man; she has discerning eyes.

“Do you remember what I told you yesterday? About the significant changes in a person over time?”

“Yes, I’ve thought about it all night. I think feelings can disappear. There are no eternal feelings in the world. Family love, friendship, romantic love, they all change due to material reasons. Now my father only loves money, he doesn’t want me.”

Xiao Qian didn’t argue with her, but continued on her own.

“Everyone changes. Let me tell you about the person in my heart.”

The two girls were sitting side by side on the bed. Xiao Qjan gave Lily Tang a frozen pear. She tried a bite, but the pear hadn’t thawed yet, and it was so cold it made her wince. Xiao Qian put the basin with the frozen pears and persimmons on the radiator and began to talk about her own emotional journey.

“The person in my heart is a very good man. In his twenties, he was very clingy. Taking every chance to stick to me. There was so much he did. Let me tell you, once, he took me out on a date and ended up taking me to a muddy field and getting me all dirty…”

Xiao Qian spoke about one instance after another. There were so many shameless stories about Yu Xiaoqiang that it left his listeners dumbfounded.

“There was this one time, he snuck into my house through a window without telling my mom or my younger brother. My brother got up in the middle of the night, and there he was, following behind him like a shadow. It was frustrating and speechless.”

“Ha-ha! This is hilarious. Why does he sound like a child?” Lily Tang had never thought that such a person existed. This was very interesting to her.

“You think he’s like a child, huh? But do you know what he became like ten years later?”

“Did he become an older boy?” It sounded like he maintained a childlike heart.

Xiao Qian shook her head and pat her face a few times, trying to keep a poker face.

“Like this, like an ice cube. He won’t say more than 20 words a day. His eyes are piercing and very serious. He takes his work very seriously. When he’s with me, if he gets a call, he’ll leave right away without explaining anything to me. He doesn’t cling to me anymore. I’m always the one initiating.”

“Ah? How could that be? Did he change his mind wait, you’re still so

young? How old were you ten years ago?”

Xiao Qjan smiled slightly, “Don’t worry about the age difference. There was a time I thought he didn’t love me, or he was only concerned for my appearance and yearned for my youth, that’s why he treated the younger me better than the older me.”

She is only 18 right now, youthful and beautiful. In her past life, when Yu Minglang met her, Xiao Qian was almost 30, a stable and mature woman. Xiao Qian had once wondered, perhaps Yu Minglang treats her better now because she’s younger and more beautiful than she was back then.

“The kind of man who only cares about appearances is not worth keeping.” Lily Tang said with disappointment.

Xiao Qian shook her head, “That’s not it, it’s time, time changes us.”

“Time?”

“Yes, a man in his twenties is a big child. It’s normal for him to behave somewhat juvenile. If he’s still like this when he’s close to forty, that’s a problem. The same concern can be expressed differently at different ages. Of course, this also has to do with their image and career.”

Yu Xiaoqiang is only in his twenties right now and is essentially a big kid. Although he appears mature and is skillful at his job, when it comes to the girl he likes, his childlike behaviour and immaturity often unconsciously show. No matter how composed he seems to others, he is always more relaxed with Xiao Qian because he doesn’t have to pretend in front of her.

When Xiao Qian met Yu Minglang in her previous life, he was in his late thirties and nearing his forties. The way he expressed his feelings certainly wasn’t the same as it is now. At that age, one can’t be wild even if they want to. Yet in her previous life, he waited for her for half of his life.

After coming to these realizations, Xiao Qian suddenly cherished the current Yu Minglang even more because there won’t be a second chance at youth to grow together with him.

“If only people didn’t have to grow up…” Xiao Qian’s words touched Lily Tang’s heart.

She longed to be a little girl again, living in a tiny, ramshackle house relying on her father. Her father doesn’t care about her now as he used to.

“But people must grow up, Shuixian. You’ve grown faster than your father has aged. Take a good look at him, he’s grown old, he can’t hold you anymore, but he is still the person who loves you the most. Maybe his way of expressing it has changed, but I always believe, the love between relatives is conserved. It won’t disappear, it just transforms into other forms of expression.”
