“What do you mean she would become suicidal?” Shangguan Ling wrinkled his eyebrows. “Jing Zhichen, that’s too extreme a thought.”

Jing Zhichen looked at him indignantly. “Shangguan Ling, you know nothing at all. You don’t understand the love Tianxin and Qingcang had for each other. It was so pure and so simple.”

Shangguan Ling was speechless. He was starting to not understand what Jing Zhichen was thinking.

“I wouldn’t have suggested this if Qingcang was still around. The reason why I’m doing this is that although I don’t think you’re as good as Qingcang, you are not that bad. Most importantly, you like Tianxin and would never let her suffer.”

Jing Zhichen could feel his eyes watering as he said that.

He missed Li Qingcang.

If Li Qingcang were still alive, he would not bother with Shangguan Ling.

“Jing Zhichen, you’re a grown man. Don’t tell me you want to cry here?”

Shangguan Ling shuddered when he saw that Jing Zhichen was starting to get sentimental.

It was not a crime for grown men to cry, but Shangguan Ling would be very disgusted if Jing Zhichen broke down in front of him.

“Shut up! What do you understand? Unlike you, I am not afraid to show my true feelings.”

Shangguan Ling did not understand what he meant by showing his true feelings.

He didn’t try to hide his feelings for Ye Tianxin, but it was rather complicated.

Ye Tianxin was good.

She was so outstanding that Shangguan Ling could not help but fall in love with her. He sincerely loved Ye Tianxin, and nothing would change that.

“Shangguan Ling, let me ask you this—do you really like Tianxin? Would you still like her even though she only has eyes for Qingcang? Would you mind? Give me an answer now. I can be your middleman and help you talk to Tianxin. Tianxin may not listen to others, but she will surely listen to my advice.”

Shangguan Ling thought hard about the question. Would he mind at all?

He would not mind.

He was not a narrow-minded person.

He really liked Ye Tianxin.

When he first met Ye Tianxin, he already knew she had Li Qingcang.

How could he mind?

“I don’t mind.”

Jing Zhichen was ecstatic when he heard Shangguan Ling’s apathetic reply. He slapped Shangguan Ling’s shoulder hard with his hand.

“That’s great, buddy! In the future, you’d better be nice to Tianxin.”

Jing Zhichen stood up and left hurriedly. He then made his way to Ye Tianxin’s bedroom.

He stood at the door and was about to knock when he suddenly felt that he was not prepared at all. He did not know how to put it to Ye Tianxin.

His advice sounded lame.

“Tianxin, I heard from Guan Chenxi that you’re not feeling well. Is that true?”

When Ye Tianxin heard Jing Zhichen’s voice, she cleared her throat before replying, “Zhichen, I’m fine.”

“Tianxin, uh… I heard that Shangguan Ling confessed his love to you. What do you think about it?”

“Zhichen, I have rejected him.”

Jing Zhichen tried to be reasonable. “It’s good that you have rejected him. Shangguan Ling was a jerk. He actually wants to come between you and Qingcang. He is not worthy of someone as perfect as you!”

On the way to Lang Garden, Jing Zhichen had thought it over carefully. He wanted to speak well of Shangguan Ling in front of Ye Tianxin.

However, he no longer knew what to say when he stood outside Ye Tianxin’s door and heard her response.

He hesitated before saying, “Tianxin, rest well.”

He decided to not rush.

One needed to strategize and plan carefully.

He wanted Ye Tianxin to accept Shangguan Ling slowly and wholeheartedly.

Instead of love at first sight, it was more advisable for them to develop their feelings for each other over time.

They had to get to know each other first so Ye Tianxin could see for herself that Shangguan Ling was worthy of her love.
