In his previous life, Wang Qian did not hesitate to abandon his family and children to escape the cage of the countryside, not returning for ten years.
However, for the rest of his life, he l...
The Liu family residence.
"Welcome, everyone!"
Liu Jingxian was well-prepared. He stood at the entrance of the retro-style mansion, which was full of Athens, with a gentle smile on his face. Behind him stood Liu Yanran and Liu Yang, the two siblings.
"Chairman Liu, you should have received the 15 million I just transferred, right?"
Qiu Minxia was the first to step forward and asked seriously.
"received!"
Liu Jingxian nodded. "Ms. Qiu is indeed a straightforward person. The first payment arrived so quickly."
“We are people of integrity!” Qiu Minxia replied.
Liu Jingxian's expression froze.
Liu Yanran and Liu Yang were somewhat indignant.
Does Qiu Minxia mean that the Liu family are untrustworthy people?
"Xiao Qian, Boss Gao, you're here too!"
After a brief silence, Liu Jingxian changed the subject, "Could it be that you've come to visit my Liu family? Come, let's go inside and talk."
"No!"
Wang Qian shook his head. "We came with Sister Xia to look at houses."
"right!"
Qiu Minxia chimed in, "Let's skip the formalities and get to the point."
"This... will work too!"
Although Liu Jingxian was somewhat disappointed, after careful consideration, he still made a gesture of invitation, "Come, I'll take you to see that villa."
As he led the way, he didn't forget to say to Liu Yanran, who was following behind him, "Yanran, isn't Xiaoqian your classmate? It's rare for him to come to our house as a guest, so why don't you introduce him to him properly?"
"Okay, Dad!"
Liu Yanran responded and moved closer to Wang Qian. "Wang Qian, time really flies, don't you think?"
"It really is fast, it feels like a lifetime ago!"
Wang Qian surveyed the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings and nodded in deep agreement.
Do you remember any of our university professors?
Whether intentionally trying to ease tensions with Wang Qian or not, Liu Yanran spoke without a trace of resentment or hatred today, her face always bearing a gentle smile.
"Of course I remember."
This time, Wang Qian did not refuse Liu Yanran's kindness, and even talked with her about his university days with deep feeling.
Although he guessed that Liu Yanran's motives were not pure, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions when he recalled the past.
"Back then, we were both naive and innocent."
Liu Yanran seemed to be immersed in her past memories as well, a smile playing on her lips, her tone becoming gentler than ever before, "Those things I did before, looking back now, were really childish."
“Indeed!” Wang Qian nodded.
"But have you noticed that those seemingly childish things have become the most precious memories?" Liu Yanran said meaningfully.
Wang Qian paused, a look of confusion flashing across his face.
But it was only fleeting.
The next moment, he took another step and continued walking towards Liu Jingxian and the others.
Liu Yanran kept in sync with Wang Qian and seemed to have endless things to talk about.
"After leaving school and truly entering society, time flies by, and no matter what you do, it seems like there's not much meaning in it."
She looked up at the clear sky in the distance, a bitter look on her face. "On the contrary, every little thing, every naive word, every unintentional scene from college will become clearer in my memory as time goes by."
"Then, these memories will slowly accumulate in my heart and become regrets."
"The longer time passes, the harder it is to let go."
"Especially..."
At this point, Liu Yanran hesitated, a hint of sadness rising in her eyes.
Wang Qian guessed what Liu Yanran wanted to say, but he just casually said, "It's all in the past. Life is still long. The past can't be chased, so let's cherish the present."
As he spoke, he quickened his pace, seemingly intentionally avoiding Liu Yanran and not wanting to discuss the previous topic anymore.
He didn't know whether what Liu Yanran had just said was from the bottom of her heart, or whether it was intentional.
But for him, the things that had the greatest impact on him in this new life were all the events of his previous life.
Even if he fully awakens in this life, how easy is it to let go completely?
rear,
Liu Yanran stood there, her eyes dim and her expression lost.
It was indeed her father, Liu Jingxian, who wanted her to turn from enemy to friend and bury the hatchet.
As for what method to use to achieve her goal, that's naturally up to her to decide.
So she deliberately brought up the past in hopes of rekindling the lingering feelings Wang Qian had for her.
She firmly believed that Wang Qian's apparent indifference towards her was definitely an act.
During college, Wang Qian was head over heels in love with her.
Because she kicked him away, Wang Qian became self-destructive and even gave up his studies, voluntarily dropping out of school to go home.
In this situation, if she were willing to put aside her pride and take the initiative to show Wang Qian her gentle side, and if she could also reminisce about the past, she might be able to rekindle the feelings that Wang Qian had buried deep inside.
Just now, when Wang Qian didn't reject the topics she was discussing, but instead spoke to her with deep feeling, she thought she was about to succeed.
Unexpectedly,
In the blink of an eye, Wang Qian actually stopped the topic.
And they just walked away as if nothing had happened.
On the contrary, she herself was truly trapped in the past and unable to extricate herself.
While her words were indeed somewhat purposeful, they also stemmed from her genuine feelings.
Even after several years, the various things that happened between her and Wang Qian have always remained the biggest regret in her life.
The longer time passes, the more this regret will magnify in the depths of her heart.
In particular,
When she learned that Wang Qian had married and had children with an ordinary country woman, her resentment was aroused to the extreme.
There's a saying that goes, "What you can't have is always the best!"
In her mind, even if she broke up with Wang Qian, he must continue to love her deeply and remain true to his original intentions.
Having an affair with another woman is a betrayal of her, an unforgivable and unforgivable crime.
Moreover, this emotion is a strange ebb and flow.
If Wang Qian acts like he cares a lot, she won't care as much.
But if Wang Qian really lets go, her resentment will only grow stronger and stronger, eventually accumulating into endless hatred.
She hasn't let go yet, so how could Wang Qian possibly let go?
That's not fair!
"No, I don't believe you can really let go!"
She muttered to herself, forcibly suppressing the complex emotions in her heart, and quickly chased after him.
But before she could bring up the past again, a luxurious villa came into view.
"This is it!"
Liu Jingxian pointed to the villa in front of him and said with a smile to Qiu Minxia, "Ms. Qiu, what do you think of this villa?"
