Chapter 1691: Chapter 1340: A Moment’s Mistake (Part 3)

But he inexplicably brought the woman into his own room.

For so many years, it wasn’t that he hadn’t been with other women or hadn’t had one-night stands.

But that time left a deep impression because the woman really resembled Xu Jing a lot.

In a certain sense, that night, he took her for Xu Jing.

The next morning, he woke up, the woman was still asleep, and he left without saying a word.

Afterward, he put it all behind him, but he never imagined that his one indulgence would lead to so many things.

Truly, he did not expect it at all.

Wen Biyue said, "Go find Xu Jing, even if you once made mistakes, so many years have passed, it should be enough, you have her in your heart, she has you in hers, you two have missed so many years, you shouldn’t miss out again because of this unintended mistake...

Besides, I also need you to help save my brother, do you understand what I mean?"

He understood, so he came. He didn’t consider what might happen after he arrived.

Song Yansheng might very well kill him, after all, he’s the creator of all the tragedies.

But he was unafraid, Wen Biyue’s decision already meant she abandoned him.

Now he desires nothing but to see Xu Jing one more time, even if just once.

But Song Yansheng’s words left him slightly shocked, unbelievable.

Song Yansheng turned his gaze, looking at the night scene illuminated by the streetlights outside, and spoke softly, "I used to be very conflicted about the past, so I dared not do many things, leading to missing out again and again, resulting in loss after loss. You see the outcome, the girl I liked fell in love with someone else, got engaged and it wasn’t to me. Facing these, what could I do? Besides silently watching from the side, silently guarding, there’s nothing I could do...

Until Xiao Chuan passed away, I knew it was the most untimely moment, the hardest time, but I still relentlessly brought her to my side. I told myself, all the pain she went through over those many years was because of me. If I weren’t so conflicted, so afraid, not even a bit weak, she wouldn’t have suffered so much, nor been so distressed..."

Song Yansheng smiled and said, "You see, everyone is no exception. A single thought can lead us to make grave mistakes, and when we let go of those mistakes, no one knows what might happen the next second... Nuannuan harbors hatred in her heart, that’s okay, I’ll use my love to melt her hate, just as she used the past fifteen years to melt the coldness in me into warmth... I have that patience, and willpower!"

"But, aren’t you afraid Nuannuan will keep investigating?"

"Afraid... but so what? Life always has some puzzles that one cannot solve in a lifetime, and if the answer brings only pain, then it’s better she never knows..."

He looked at Liao Qinghe, his voice gentle, "Moreover, the reason you came here so recklessly, isn’t it to make up for your past regrets? But there are some words I still want to say on behalf of Sister Wen: by making you come this way, she’s actually fulfilling you, not abandoning you..."

Liao Qinghe furrowed his eyebrows, looking at him.

Song Yansheng said, "I’ve known Sister Wen for years, we’ve come to quite understand each other. Indeed, she used you as a pawn, but not to make you my target of frustration for Nuannuan, she means to let you go to Xu Jing..."

Liao Qinghe’s thin lips moved, trying to speak, but in the end, he said nothing.

Song Yansheng already stood up, looking at him, "Mr. Liao, tonight’s talk, I hope it remains a secret between you and me, and that night many years ago, I hope other than you, me, Sister Wen, and Xu Jing, no one else will know. Can you do that?"

Liao Qinghe’s eyes trembled, and he nodded, "Of course..."

Song Yansheng gave an acknowledgment, then reached out to take out his phone.

Only then did Liao Qinghe discover that the phone was in a call state, and on the other end was Xu Jing.

Song Yansheng hung up the call and said to Liao Qinghe, "Go back, I think you two need to have a good talk, don’t let down Sister Wen, nor Nuannuan..."

After saying that, he turned to leave, Liao Qinghe froze, quickly called out to stop him.

Song Yansheng paused, turning to look at him.

Liao Qinghe asked, "She... I mean Bi Yue, what did she say to you? I want to know..."

Song Yansheng smiled briefly, "By this time, does it matter whether you know or not? After all, the moment you left, you had already made a choice in your heart, didn’t you?"

Liao Qinghe’s brows furrowed tightly, Song Yansheng said nothing more, turning and leaving.

Time goes back a few hours, during Wen Biyue and Song Yansheng’s call.

Wen Biyue said, "But, you would do anything for Nuannuan, wouldn’t you?"

Song Yansheng frowned and said, "So what?"

"So, if Xu Jing finds happiness, Nuannuan would definitely be happy..."

Song Yansheng said nothing.

Wen Biyue continued, "A Yu, for Nuannuan’s sake, let go of Qinghe, and for my sake, let go of my brother, can you?"
