Chapter 1264: Jian Yiling’s Decision

In the past few years, she had learned a lot about getting along with people. Despite this, she still did not know what to do in such a situation.

She had no idea that Qin Chuan’s thoughts about her would change so much this time around.

But she no longer needed nor wanted his love and attention in this life.

“The person that I like is A Sheng,” Jian Yiling told Qin Chuan clearly.

“I know that. But do I deserve this?” Qin Chuan asked. His voice was low, bitter, and even a little self-deprecating. “In our previous life, you loved me but I hated you. This time around, I fell for you unknowingly. Is this my retribution for destroying the Jian family in our previous lives?”

Upon hearing this, Jian Yiling shook her head: “It’s not retribution. It’s merely fate and destiny. This time around, I met and fell in love with A Sheng. It’s like you and Mo Shiyun.”

Qin Chuan was silent for a moment before he said: “Well, what I said still holds. If you don’t come with me, I will destroy the Zhai family.”

Qin Chuan did not listen to Jian Yiling’s words. He still wanted to force her to make a decision.

Once again, Qin Yufan tugged at her brother’s arm: “Brother, even if you like Yiling, you shouldn’t do this. Can’t you see? Your actions are hurting her! She’s getting married today. How can you force her to make such a decision? Brother, please don’t do this okay? I know there is no way to control your feelings. However, you can control yourself to not hurt the person that you like!”

Hu Jiaojiao nodded her head and added: “Yes, yes. If you truly like Yiling, you should let her be happy. You shouldn’t be forcing her to make a decision!”

Despite hearing these words, the expression on Qin Chuan’s face did not change. Qin Yufan and Hu Jiaojiao’s words would not change his mind.

If his thoughts could be easily changed, he wouldn’t be standing here today. He wouldn’t be forcing Jian Yiling to make a choice.

“Even if you plan to destroy the Zhai family, I won’t leave with you,” Jian Yiling replied.

Qin Chuan frowned when he heard this.

Then, Jian Yiling said to Qin Chuan: “Even if the Zhai family gets destroyed, I will support A Sheng. I can give him whatever he needs to build up his business in Beijing again. However, if I leave today, A Sheng will be sad. I will not sacrifice myself to make myself feel better. I will not let him misinterpret my actions.”

“Aren’t you worried that the Zhai family will be ruined because of you?” Qin Chuan asked again.

“Nope, I’m not worried. If they blame me for this matter, it only proves that they are not worthy of me marrying into. If that’s the case, there is nothing to be upset about if their family business gets destroyed. And if they care about me, they would have chosen me over the family business in the first place.”

As she said this, Jian Yiling’s eyes remained clear and certain.

Then, she handed the documents back to Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan stared at the documents handed back by Jian Yiling for a while. He did not reach out to take them.

In his mind, Jian Yiling’s decision was unexpected, yet within reason.

The Jian Yiling that he knew this life would make such a decision.

She would know exactly what she wanted.

She would defend what she wanted to protect.

Qin Chuan looked at Jian Yiling’s firm gaze for a while before he turned around and left the room.

Once he left, Hu Jiaojiao let out a big sigh of relief.

On the other hand, Qin Yufan, was not at all relieved: “Yiling, what do we do now? If my brother actually plans to destroy the Zhai family…”

“If he actually dares to do that, then I will dare to destroy him.” Jian Yiling replied.

From a long time ago Jian Yiling had been worried that Qin Chuan would hurt Zhai Yunsheng.

Therefore, she did a lot of things to attempt to change the hostile relationship between the two.

However, she ended up being the factor that triggered their hostile relationship this time around.

Despite not being able to change anything, she was no longer afraid to face Qin Chuan head-on.
