Chapter 1347: Her Footsteps
Qu Zhen quickly understood there was no point in continuing this conversation with Master Zhai. And thus, he hastily said farewell to Master Zhai.
After that, Qu Zhen left the Zhai Residence with Sheng Yingying.
As soon as she exited the Zhai Residence, Sheng Yingying began to lose her temper: “Tch! That old man is saying whatever he wants because he’s old! Who does he think he is!”
“It’s alright. There’s no use in being angry. It’s true we wronged the Zhai family first. It’s only natural for him to not forgive us,” Qu Zhen said to Sheng Yingying.
“Well, he can only act that way for a little while longer,” Sheng Yingying scoffed. “We came to negotiate peace and yet, he puts on a show. Does he really think Master Sheng can win against the Loyalty Alliance? That grandson of his only knows how to fight. There’s no way he knows how to do business.”
“Don’t be angry. Let’s discuss this with Mr. Qin.”
Since they were unable to negotiate peace with the Zhai family, this meant they were going to focus all their time and energy on assisting Qin Chuan.
“Good! I want to see Qin Chuan defeat Zhai Yunsheng again!”
###
The recent actions of Zhai Yunsheng caused pain for people who belonged to the Loyalty Alliance.
When they were allies in the past, they never realized how hard it was to win against Master Sheng.
Eventually, everyone in the Loyalty Alliance placed their hopes in Qin Chuan. They desperately wanted him to deal with Zhai Yunsheng as soon as possible.
Thankfully, Qin Chuan agreed to help them.
He also wanted to end this matter as soon as possible.
He didn’t really care about whether he lost or won. He just wanted all of this to end.
Qin Chuan no longer knew whether there was a point to his actions.
Even though he had a lot of things he did not have in the past, he felt emptier and more lost than before.
He was like a machine that was desperately trying to replicate the world in his memories.
Yet, he had no idea what he was chasing.
He took out a picture of Jian Yiling from a drawer.
In that picture, Jian Yiling was wearing a fluffy white sweater.
Qin Chuan’s fingertips gently brushed over the photo.
He did not know when he fell in love with her.
In fact, he didn’t even know which Jian Yiling he was in love with. Did he like the Jian Yiling who was crazily in love with him in his previous life? Or did he like the Jian Yiling in his current life?
A few years ago, even though he had a crush on Jian Yiling, before he got his memories back, he could restrain himself from doing anything insane.
But those memories of the young girl who was crazily in love with him appeared again and again in his dreams… Eventually, memories of her were etched into his mind.
“Qin Chuan, I heard that your company needs funds. Please accept this credit card. Consider it as a gift from me.”
“Qin Chuan, I just learned to knit a sweater. I knitted one for you.”
“Qin Chuan, I just like you… Why can’t you accept me?”
“What’s so great about Mo Shiyun? What makes me inferior to her? I met you before her! I fell in love with you first!”
In the past, these memories annoyed him.
However, as time passed, they turned into things he longed for. He desperately wanted to hear her say those things to him again.
Even if that was the case, Qin Chuan knew that no matter what he did, he could not return to those times.
After all, Jian Yiling was no longer the original Jian Yiling. She was not the girl who loved him with all of her heart and soul.
Even if he destroyed Zhai Yunsheng, that girl would not return to him.
Despite knowing this, he was following in her footsteps. He was repeatedly doing wrong things even though he knew it would not yield the results he wanted.
