Chapter 12.3 (2/2)
Jiang Yishan asked, “Your brother urged you to go back?”
Qin Shaocheng turned around and put the phone aside without denying it.
“Then will I have to go?” Jiang Yishan stared at the ground. “Can’t we stay for a few more days?”
Qin Shaocheng looked at Jiang Yishan, and he thought that he probably couldn’t go back to his former place. If he’d go out looking for a different place, he’d be harassed by the paparazzi. After some deliberation, he said, “For the time being, I won’t turn over this place. You can stay here first.”
Jiang Yishan didn’t give up. “Can’t you leave after the New Year?”
“You.” Qin Shaosheng hesitated for a moment the said, “Don’t always rely on…”
“Winning your heart by coquetry, isn’t it?” Jiang Yishan didn’t know whether to laugh or not. His expression was out of control. “You just don’t like me. When you liked me, you said you like me best. Have you forgotten?”
“Yes, I admit it.” Qin Shaosheng said, “I liked it wrong.”
He said he liked it wrong.
Jiang Yishan’s chest seemed to be smothered with a punch, and he was dying. “I can change, okay? I will listen and I’ll be good. I’ll never be like before. Don’t you want me?”
He pressed hard: “I don’t want to be a star anymore. I won’t be willful. I’ll listen to everything you say. I will learn well. Will you give me a chance?”
Qin Shaocheng couldn’t bear to see Jiang Yishan like this, but he still said ruthlessly: “We’ve broken up for four years now. You should learn to be a bit more mature.”
“There’s no chance, is there? What do you think I’m doing…” Jiang Yishan couldn’t speak any more. He took a deep breath but didn’t even have the strength to exhale. He thought it was so difficult to chase someone as his plea for forgiveness had no response.
Did maturity mean letting go? Wasn’t maturity admitting your faults and making up for them?
He thought that if he could come back, if his life could rewind to when they first met…
He used to be rich and stupid. He was doted on but didn’t appreciate it. He became too fearless because he had someone to rely on. With love, he was able to spend lavishly to his heart’s content. But when he looked back, he found his hands were empty.
But how could life turn back? His life was merely a dream of a golden wheat. [2]
In his dream, he didn’t fail Qin Shaocheng.
