Chapter 1517: What Kind of Love Do You Want?

Once again, Jing Zhichen went to look for Shangguan Ling. He was pacing around in front of Shangguan Ling.

After a while, he stopped walking and looked at Shangguan Ling.

“Shangguan Ling, would you rather experience love at first sight, or would you rather allow your feelings to develop over time?”

Shangguan Ling was silent.

Jing Zhichen authoritatively looked at Shangguan Ling. “Shangguan Ling, this is just my opinion. You have to listen to my advice. Tianxin is not the type of girl who will return your feelings just because you like her.”

“Go on.” Shangguan Ling was listening intently.

Jing Zhichen thought for a moment. “I’m certain that Qingcang is dead. Otherwise, Tianxin would not be in a hurry to hold a memorial service for him. The memorial service has been conducted. It was arranged by Uncle Xuning and Xinghe. If they didn’t not have concrete evidence of Qingcang’s death,, they would not have arranged for the service. Hence, we can confirm that they are also very sure that Qingcang had perished during the explosion. The heavens are always jealous of talented people. Did you know that two years ago, Qingcang was seriously injured, and Tianxin braved all dangers to save him?”

Jing Zhichen felt as if a blade was being jammed into his heart whenever he mentioned Li Qingcang.

He was such a good man.

How could he leave them without saying anything?

It made everyone disappointed and sad.

After a long pause, Jing Zhichen continued to say, “Shangguan Ling, do you know what is the best way to go about this matter now?”

“What is it?” Shangguan Ling was curious.

“Start from scratch.” Jing Zhichen stroked his chin lightly. “Let Tianxin try to accept you slowly. Give her time so she does not resent your presence. You will gradually become more important to her. Eventually, it would seem natural for both of you to come together.”

Shangguan Ling looked at Jing Zhichen, not knowing what to say.

Words could not describe how confused Jing Zhichen was now.

He then wisely said, “If Tianxin wasn’t my younger sister, I would not bother to give you any advice. You know how hard Tianxin’s life was. She was born into a good family but her childhood was so…”

Jing Zhichen’s voice trailed off.

The image of Ye Tianxin rejecting him flashed across Shangguan Ling’s mind.

There was a quiet persistence and resolution in that petite face of hers.

Deep down, Shangguan Ling strongly believed that whatever Jing Zhichen said was simply untrue.

He wished that Ye Tianxin could be happy.

He hoped that she could move past her memories of Li Cangcang’s death and become happy again.

Jing Zhichen pursed his lips as he sat in front of Shangguan Ling. He was overwhelmed with feelings of melancholy again.

He thought to himself that if Li Qingcang knew about this, he also would not want to see Ye Tianxin wallow in despair.

“Shangguan Ling, will you be able to make Tianxin happy? Can you do it?”

Shangguan Ling felt that Jing Zhichen was not behaving like his normal self. “Let’s have a drink.”

“Let’s drink up!”

Shangguan Ling had visited Lang Garden several times since he was a kid.

It was a place he felt comfortable in. He treated it like his own home.

Shangguan Ling then brought out a bottle of wine and two wine glasses. He poured a glass of wine for Jing Zhichen.

“Jing Zhichen, do you think that it is possible for me and Tianxin to get together?”

Gripping the wine glass tightly, Jing Zhichen looked at Shangguan Ling and laughed bitterly. “Shangguan Ling, don’t tell me you want to give up now just because Tianxin rejected you. You were never like this before.”
