Chapter 396: An Unexpected Confession【1】
Li Qingcang’s physical strength was superior to that of Jing Zhichen in all aspects, so Jing Zhichen was dragged to the roof of the building like a weakling.
“Brother, you are too overbearing. How can you prevent me from getting close to Tianxin? She’s my cousin! We are relatives!”
Jing Zhichen was furious.
Li Qingcang stood aside, and he couldn’t help laughing as he watched Jing Zhichen fume with rage.
“So?”
Jing Zhichen was extremely angry, and he grabbed Li Qingcang’s collar. He was really going all out for Tianxin.
“So don’t treat Tianxin as your possession!”
Li Qingcang felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the word ‘possession’, and he said, “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is, you can’t let Tianxin be without anyone of the opposite sex.” Jing Zhichen let go of his hand somewhat guiltily. “You are old, and Tianxin is still so young. I don’t want her to give up her dreams because of you. I don’t want you to get in the way of her achieving her dreams…”
Ever since Jing Zhichen learned of Li Qingcang’s feelings, he had been thinking about this.
Tianxin was still young, only eighteen years old.
Her future was before her. Many things could still happen.
It was impossible for him to really let go just because Tianxin had a crush on Li Qingcang.
He had to be responsible for Tianxin’s future.
“Jing Zhichen, what do you mean?”
Li Qingcang only thought about Ye Tianxin’s future. He wanted her to chase her dreams.
“Boss, don’t pretend to be confused. Everyone in the world knows you like Tianxin.”
Jing Zhichen’s tone was full of resentment. He was Tianxin’s brother, but he was the last one to know.
Actually, Li Qingcang was the last person to know that he liked Tianxin.
“The…entire…world?”
Li Qingcang thought, ‘Was it that obvious?’
He himself only found out last night when Tianxin sang.
It didn’t make sense. Other people knew he liked Tianxin earlier than he did?
“Yes, the entire world knew that you liked her.” After Jing Zhichen finished speaking, he slapped himself. “I was a fool to believe that you and I both treated Tianxin as a sister!”
Jing Zhichen felt that he was the kind of brother who led wolves into the house.
He sent his naive and adorable sister straight into the wolf’s den.
Li Qingcang didn’t expect that Jing Zhichen’s reaction would be over the top.
“Don’t you support me?”
Jing Zhichen shook his head. “It’s not that I don’t support you. I just think you’re too old. Tianxin is only 18 years old, and she’s at the peak of her wonderful youth. How about you? You’re almost 27. Don’t talk about love and other issues, but let’s discuss some practical stuff. Tianxin will be 22 years old after graduating from university. If you two have a good relationship, you two will get married after graduation. Then, do you want to have children? Tianxin can’t be pregnant and go to graduate school at the same time, right? Besides, when Tianxin is 22 years old, you’ll be 30 years old…”
While Li Qingcang listened to Jing Zhichen’s words, he began to seriously consider the scenarios Jing Zhichen had mentioned.
“Brother, my dear brother, there’s no problem with you liking Tianxin.”
After Jing Zhichen finished speaking, he rubbed his eyes again.
“I don’t want Tianxin to sacrifice her plans because of you. I hope that my sister, Tianxin, can do what she wants even if she is in love. I don’t want my sister to miss out on great opportunities because of you.”
