The Sweetest Medicine - Chapter 713
Chapter 713: Heartbroken! Never even fallen in love (3)
“There’s nothing between us now, but I hope we will in the future. ”
“Please listen carefully, I am your sister-in-law’s master. Master is your father? You and your sister-in-law are like my daughters, so it’s impossible between us. Otherwise, it’ll be against ethics …”
“Wait,” Jiang Qi interrupted him with a confused expression,””We’re not even related by blood. You and my sister-in-law are only master and disciple. How is there anything wrong with our relationship?”
He Shigui replied seriously,”that’s how I feel. So, you can’t have any feelings for me. You should immediately get rid of these ridiculous thoughts.”
“No, I really like you. I like you very much. Master handsome, why don’t you try it out with me?” Jiang Qi abandoned all her reservations and grabbed onto he Shigui’s wrist as she said everything she had in her heart.
He Shigui glanced at the hand she was holding and pushed his hand away with a cold expression,””Since you want an answer, I’ll tell you right now. I don’t like you, not at all, so I can’t give it a try with you.”
Jiang Qi’s eyes trembled violently as if a sharp blade had pierced through her heart.
Her eyes and nose were sore, and she desperately held back the tears that were about to come out. She choked out,”Why?”
He Shigui replied,[there’s no reason not to like someone.]
“Where am I not good? “You told me I could change,” Jiang Qi blinked as she wiped away the tears in her eyes. She looked at he Shigui with blurry vision,”you don’t even know me. Perhaps…You don’t like me now, but maybe you’ll like me after we get to know each other. How would I know if I like you or not if I don’t try?”
He Shigui looked at her without any change in expression. There wasn’t a trace of heartache in his eyes as he said in a cold voice,””If you don’t like someone, you can’t try. That’s disrespectful. Besides, I’ve already said that you and your sister-in-law are the same in my heart. Trying with you makes me feel like I’m dating my daughter.”
Jiang Qi couldn’t help but burst into tears as she cried and said sadly,””But I … I’m not your daughter. You’re talking nonsense. You’re only ten years older than me. How could you have a daughter when you were ten?”
She continued sobbing.”When I was threatened by Gu shuling, you comforted me. If you don’t like me, why did you comfort me? and after that …”
The girl mumbled about the past and he Shigui felt helpless.
As he watched the crying girl, he Shigui wanted to comfort her, but he quickly retracted his hand.
It was impossible between him and her. Since that was the case, why should he give her any more illusions?
The cruelty of rejection would make her forget this inexplicable and extremely absurd relationship.
After Jiang Qi finished crying, he Shigui said,””You don’t really love me. You’re just grateful that I helped you. Actually, we’re from two different worlds, and we’re from two different generations. I’m ten years younger than you. We don’t have anything in common, and we don’t have a common love. A girl your age should find a boy who’s about the same age as you and start a relationship that you two should have at your age …”
Before he could finish, Jiang Qi said loudly,””But I don’t like boys my age. I like you.”
