Qin Yinanâs ostentatiously care-free reaction fueled Su Zhinianâs anger. He clamped his hands around Qin Yinanâs neck, planning to choke the life out of him. As if feeling that was not enough, he took a step back and raised his leg, aiming to kick the manâs abdomen, when Qin Yinanâs thoughts filtered into his mind. If only I didnât overdrink and mistake Cheng Qingchong for Song Song in my drunken state...
Su Zhinianâs movement halted. Cheng Qingchong? My secretary?
He loosened the hold on Qin Yinanâs neck, and his icy gaze flashed with surprise.
The drunken Qin Yinan was still trapped in the memory from the night before. Su Zhinian continued to read more of his thoughts. ...In that case, if Cheng Qingchong didnât get pregnant, would I have carried out the marriage with Song Song?
Cheng Qingchong is pregnant? When Su Zhinian heard from Song Qingchun that Qin Yinan had reneged on the marriage, he was very confused why this man who had been so nice to Song Qingchun would give up on her. He had considered the possibility of Qin Yinan having another woman, and he had even suspected that it was Tang Nuan, but the name of his secretary truly was a shock. Not only that, she already carried his child?
If I didnât bow out of the marriage, would Song Song proceed to marry me? Qin Yinan suddenly scoffed in self-deprecation. Who am I kidding?
When he heard from Song Qingchun that she had something similar to tell him, he had been petrified. He had sat where he was for a long time before pulling his gaze back onto Song Qingchun. He had leaned back in his chair before asking, "Is it because of Su Zhinian?"
He knew better than anyone that the only person who could make her withdraw from the marriage was Su Zhinian. However, he had still asked because he wanted to hear it from her lips, to devastate himself one last time. The answer had been even more devastating than he thought.
Song Qingchun, who was Su Zhinianâs biological sister, had admitted without hesitation and readily with a crisp and unambiguous, "Yes."
Her plain attitude had brought tears to his eyes. However, he had refused to give up and explained it to her in the manner of a friend. "Song Song, you have to understand that heâs your older brother... You cannot be in love with him..."
How she replied to him, he could still replicate word by word. She had said, "Brother Yinan, I know heâs my brother, and Iâm his sister. We can never be a couple, but that doesnât mean we cannot be together, right?
"Brother Yinan, I understand that youâre just looking out for me, but I know what Iâm doing. In fact, Iâve never been so clear of a decision before. If I really proceed to marry you, itâll really be the biggest mistake of my life.
"Tonight, before I came to see you, I thought it through. In this life, even if I cannot marry Su Zhinian, I will not marry anyone else.
"Heâs not going to take a wife, and Iâm not going to find a husband; weâll just be together forever, a lifetime of being beside each other..."
Song Qingchunâs confession caused Su Zhinianâs body to shudder violently. His leg that was aimed at Qin Yinanâs abdomen slowly moved back onto the floor.
