Chapter 1503 - Koi Fish Good Luck

Qin Yaoguang froze. She stared at He Chengjian and after a long while, she muttered, “Why? What problems do we need to work on? Tell me, I will definitely change...”

He Chengjian wasn’t a young man who had just entered a relationship. Now that he saw that Qin Yaoguang was almost 50 years old but was still talking like an 18 or 19-year-old girl, he found it even more ridiculous.

He said aloofly, “I’m already so old. If you could change, you would have changed long ago.”

This sentence was like a giant meteorite falling from the sky. It made Qin Yaoguang dizzy and her face instantly flushed red.

Wen Shouyi saw that the situation wasn’t good and quickly said, “You guys go in and have a chat. I’ll go ask the doctor if she can be discharged.”

She didn’t want to witness Qin Yaoguang’s embarrassing side here.

Qin Yaoguang had always treated her like a servant. If she didn’t know what to do, she probably wouldn’t even be able to be a servant.

After Wen Shouyi left, Qin Yaoguang let out a sigh of relief. She didn’t want to expose her ugly side in front of others.

In her life, she had only lowered her head in front of He Chengjian.

He Chengjian thought about it and followed Qin Yaoguang into her ward. He sat down in front of her.

“Big Brother He, you really can’t do this.” Qin Yaoguang’s eyes gradually turned red, and she spoke very slowly. “What did I do to make you angry? I really don’t understand. Other people don’t know what I’ve done for you all these years. Don’t tell me you don’t know as well?”

He Chengjian thought about how Qin Yaoguang had waited for him for dozens of years. It wasn’t that he wasn’t moved.

But that was all. This moved wasn’t to the extent that he had feelings for her.

“You were really good to me, at first.” He Chengjian sighed. “But towards your own daughter...”

“Brother He! Is it because of Nianzhi?!” Qin Yaoguang’s heart sank, and she became even more nervous. “Is it because of Nianzhi?!”

“Yes.” He Chengjian was very honest with her. “You promised me, but you did it behind my back. You know, I don’t usually think of other people as bad people, but once I find out that you’re not who you say you are, I’ll definitely think of the worst.”

In other words, he wouldn’t assume that anyone was a bad person until he found out the true bad side of this person.

Qin Yaoguang was angry and anxious. She couldn’t even speak clearly. “Brother He! There’s nothing I can do! When I see her, I can’t control myself!”

He Chengjian frowned slightly. “I don’t understand.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“... When I see her, I feel like I’ve betrayed you...” Qin Yaoguang’s eyes were full of tears, and her delicate lips were constantly moving. It was pitiful.

He Chengjian was stunned. He looked up and said, “No way! When you saw Nianzhi, why would you think that you had betrayed me?”

“Because I’m yours, and I’m yours alone, but I had a child with someone else...” Qin Yaoguang held her chest. “Brother He, is that why you didn’t want to be with me?”

“What nonsense are you talking about?” He Chengjian finally understood and was speechless. “If it weren’t for Nianzhi, you would never have had the chance to marry into the He family. I hope you can understand that.”

Qin Yaoguang’s eyes dimmed instantly. She was silent for a long time before she said, “So all the things I’ve done for you all these years aren’t as useful as Gu Nianzhi?”

He Chengjian stood up and said coldly, “Suwen and I are grateful to you for saving Ah-Chu. That will never change, but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want. You know me. I’m a clear-cut person. I don’t mix business and personal matters.”

Qin Yaoguang’s face turned pale and she smiled sadly. “How can I do whatever I want? Isn’t it just blocking a few of Gu Nianzhi’s jobs? Is it worth making such a big deal out of nothing?”

“You still think you’re right?” He Chengjian realized that Qin Yaoguang was really confused. “You think you only blocked a few of Nianzhi’s jobs, but to me, you lost my trust. How is this making a big deal out of nothing?”

Who was He Chengjian?

The Huaxia Empire’s highest-ranking military officer. He was a man of his word.

“But Gu Nianzhi is my daughter.” Qin Yaoguang was still indignant. “I’m doing this for her own good. What good would she do in that place? Only when she could no longer survive in C city would she think of coming back to beg us. Only then would she obediently marry Zhichu. Brother He, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?”

The more He Chengjian heard, the angrier he got, “What do you mean? In your eyes, is my son that bad? Do you have to use such an underhanded method to force Nianzhi into submission?! How could she fall in love with him with all her heart if you do this.. Qin Yaoguang, you’ve really turned an earthworm into a demon, haven’t you? Not only did you become so extreme, but you’ve also even lost your mind!”

“What did you say?!” Qin Yaoguang’s expression changed drastically as she looked at He Chengjian in disbelief. “How did you know? ! You sent someone to spy on me?! You have a video?!”

Qin Yaoguang immediately understood what the problem was when she heard the phrase “A worm becomes a spirit”.

This was the greatest humiliation in her life, second only to the fact that He Chengjian had broken off their engagement.

He Chengjian smiled. “Spy on you? You’re overthinking it. I did this to protect Nianzhi. If I hadn’t done this, I wouldn’t have known that you were so mean to Nianzhi.”

He approached her. “Qin Yaoguang, what are you thinking? Gu Nianzhi is your biological daughter! You’re making things difficult for her. What do you want? Can’t you just ignore her like you did in the past?”

Qin Yaoguang slumped on the sofa and took two deep breaths. She turned her head and said, “That’s enough. You don’t have to say anymore. If we’re separated, so be it. We need to calm down.”

He Chengjian nodded. “Okay, quickly send someone to take your things away. I won’t see you for a while.”

He turned to leave, but Qin Yaoguang said quietly behind him,”... You... You don’t want me again?”

He Chengjian didn’t turn his head. With his back facing Qin yaoguang, he frowned imperceptibly and said, “When we got engaged, it was my parents’ idea. I told you clearly from the beginning that I didn’t have feelings for you.”

“... But didn’t you know that I fell in love with you at first sight back then?” Qin Yaoguang’s voice was particularly sad and fragile.

She originally thought that even if she didn’t feel anything at first, she would definitely feel something after a long time.

She wasn’t wrong to think that way. There weren’t many couples who fell in love at first sight. Most people would fall in love after a long time.

“But after I met Suwen, I finally understood what it feels like to truly love someone.” He Chengjian raised his head and looked at the voice-activated light at the door of the ward. “I still remember the first time I saw her.”

“That day was the first day of school at B University. I passed by B University for something and saw everyone picking up new students. In the crowd, I saw a back figure that looked almost exactly like you. I thought it was you, so I went over and patted her on the shoulder to stop her.”

At that time, when Qin Suwen turned around, He Chengjian knew that he had mistaken her for someone else because their appearances were completely different.

She looked at He Chengjian in surprise and asked in amusement, “May I ask what is the matter?”

Crisp and tender with a hint of magnetism, her voice was very pleasant to hear. Although she wasn’t very good-looking, her expression was calm and polite.

Seeing that he had mistaken her for someone else, He Chengjian hurriedly apologized to her.

She didn’t mind it and smiled brightly. She waved at him and dragged a big old suitcase into the crowd.

It was the first time they met. He Chengjian didn’t take it to heart at first. He just thought it was funny that there was someone who looked so similar from the back.

After he came back, he talked about this with Qin Yaoguang. The two of them even laughed for a long time.

Later, when they met Qin Suwen again, it was during the debate competition at B University.

He was originally there to support Qin Yaoguang. In the end, he was captivated by Qin Suwen’s eloquence.

That night, all the lights were focused on her, making her unattractive face look radiant.

He Chengjian began to pay attention to her, even appearing by her side, to become friends with her.

Unknowingly, his feelings towards her had already changed.

When he realized that he had truly fallen in love with this unattractive but extremely intelligent girl, he immediately explained the situation to his father, and then broke off the engagement with the Qin family.

At first, Qin Yaoguang had no idea that he had fallen in love with Qin Suwen. She thought that he had fallen in love with another noble daughter of an prominent family, and she had once felt very sorry for herself.

Because at that time, with the Qin family’s background, her engagement with He Chengjian was definitely of a high status.

When she heard He Chengjian involuntarily reminiscing about the past, Qin Yaoguang’s expression became even gloomier.

She lowered her head and wiped away her tears with the back of her hand. She sobbed and said, “So after all these years of hard work and my efforts, I was still unable to move you. I was clearly the one who got to know you first...”

“Actually, I’ve already said that you don’t have to waste your time on me. At that time, there were so many people pursuing you. Even that crazy... geniuses had a soft spot for you. Why do you have to be so stubborn?”

At that time, Qin Yaoguang was indeed an influential figure in the school. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also extremely smart. In medical school, she was the campus belle. In addition, she was engaged to He Chengjian. In the eyes of her classmates, she was the winner in life.

However, He Chengjian suddenly broke off the engagement with her and turned to pursue Qin Suwen. In an instant, Qin Yaoguang lost face and suffered humiliation.

She couldn’t stay in school any longer, so she could only transfer to another school to complete her medical degree overseas.

It was also because He Chengjian felt guilty towards Qin Yaoguang that their He family became the Qin family’s supporter by allowing them to obtain many benefits.

If it wasn’t for the He family, the Qin family wouldn’t have developed to its current scale in more than twenty years.

“It was indeed my fault for breaking off the engagement back then, but in the past twenty to thirty years, your Qin family has already received enough benefits from our He family.” He Chengjian was a little impatient, “Even if you had married me back then, the benefits your Qin family received would only be this much. So, to put it in a deeper sense, I don’t owe you anything.”

Qin Yaoguang choked for a moment and lowered her head. “... You only know how to talk about benefits, but what about my feelings? After so many years, you really don’t owe me feelings?”

“I had no choice.” He Chengjian opened the door of the ward. “I tried to accept you, otherwise, why would I have married you? I even agreed to let you use my frozen sperm as a test tube baby.”

“If that test tube had succeeded, would you not have been so heartless?” Qin Yaoguang didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

She used He Chengjian’s frozen sperm to fuse with her egg cells to make four to five fertilized eggs, and only one of them was successfully implanted in her body.

However, after two months of successful fertilization, she naturally miscarried.

She had been so successful in the past, but on this matter, she was extremely frustrated.

Most people would choose to pick themselves up from wherever they fell.

But she had fallen into the same pit again and again.

He Chengjian said calmly, “But it didn’t succeed. This means that we are really not suitable for each other. I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it.”

He left Qin Yaoguang’s ward. Qin Yaoguang looked at his back and her face went blank.

..

The next day was Monday. Gu Nianzhi went to work in high spirits with the copy of the bid she had prepared.

She arrived early on the second floor of the Lu Corporation building. Seeing that Jin Dazhuang and the receptionist, Xiao Zhang, had arrived earlier than her, she smiled and said, “Are you guys nervous too?”

“Of course! This bid is related to whether or not I, Xiao Zhang, will be able to turn over a new leaf and become the receptionist of a big law firm!” Xiao Zhang held Gu Nianzhi’s hand. Her eyes lit up with excitement as she touched the folder in her hand. “I just transferred the koi fish today, so I’ll share your bid with some good luck.”
