Qin Chuan’s eyes were filled with sorrow and self-mockery as he said this.

However, he did not regret any of his actions.

In fact, he didn’t even have many expectations to survive.

“Can’t we be friends?” Jian Yiling asked.

“If I asked you this question in our previous lives, would you say yes?”

Upon hearing this answer, Jian Yiling shook her head slowly.

She could say yes right now. However, she knew she certainly couldn’t in her previous life.

Despite giving this response, Jian Yiling said: “But I still hope you can say yes. I don’t want you to experience what I experienced in my previous life.”

After a pause, Jian Yiling added: “Mo Shiyun made her own decisions in her life. You don’t need to blame yourself for what happened to her. I also made my own decisions. My decisions have nothing to do with you. You do not need to punish yourself either.”

Upon hearing these words, a light flickered in Qin Chuan’s eyes. He did not expect that after what he did, Jian Yiling would say such things to him.

After a long pause, Qin Chuan asked, “Are you saying this because I almost became friends with you and Zhai Yunsheng in this life? Or are you saying this because you loved me deeply in our previous life?”

“Perhaps both reasons play a part,” Jian Yiling answered. “I can’t differentiate it but I don’t feel like I have the need to.”

Both her lives made up her current self.

It was enough to just follow her own heart.

Jian Yiling’s frankness struck a chord in Qin Chuan’s heart.

“Do you really want me to get better?” Qin Chuan once again confirmed with Jian Yiling.

“Mhmm,” Jian Yiling responded without the slightest hesitation.

Qin Chuan closed his eyes when he heard this. A memory from the past came to his mind.

For some reason, he suddenly felt extremely relieved.

It didn’t matter whether they hated or loved each other right now. She wanted him to live on and he also wanted her to live on.

When he was on the verge of death, she still wanted to save him. She wasn’t influenced by those tangled emotions and messy memories from their previous lives.

After another long silence, Qin Chuan said to Jian Yiling: “Then I’ll leave everything to fate. If fate lets me live, I will live.”

“Okay,” Jian Yiling answered.

This conversation with Jian Yiling made Qin Chuan’s mood change drastically.

“Take your medicine on time and remain optimistic,” Jian Yiling said to Qin Chuan.

Then, she noted down a few other things before leaving his hospital ward.

As Qin Chuan watched Jian Yiling leave, he silently vowed to himself that he would try his best to live on. He would watch from afar and protect her happiness.

Long Yuetian knew that Jian Yiling and the others were very busy recently. And thus, after work, she decided to visit them with some food.

However, she didn’t expect the Second Master of the Zhai family to arrive a few moments after her.

“Woah, you guys are so in sync,” Luo Xiuen commented. “Either you don’t come, or you come together. And both of you brought food.”

Upon hearing this, Long Yuetian was incredibly embarrassed. She was afraid to meet Zhai Zhongshen recently.

And thus, she had been trying to avoid him.

After a week of not running into him, Long Yuetian gradually relaxed her guard.

She definitely did not expect to see him here today!

However, Long Yuetian kept up her confidence and told herself she couldn’t be scared of him. It was just the Second Master of the Zhai family! Even if he held a lot of power, he was still a human being! He couldn’t eat her alive! Furthermore, it was just a marriage contract. She hadn’t broken any laws! Therefore, there was no need to be scared of him!
