Chapter 85 - 85: Back Then, You Still Wanted Me to Give Up



He watched the two of them getting along harmoniously, discussing everything from the rattle drum to the future of the mother and baby industry, and from stock market trends to infant programming.

Lin Gantang was left speechless. Wen Yanqing’s knowledge spanned quite a wide range.

It was one thing if Lin Mingzhuo, as a grandfather, knew about these things, but what was going on with Wen Yanqing?

Fortunately, Mr. Lin didn’t overstay the visit and eventually let Wen Yanqing leave when it was getting late.

However, Lin Gantang didn’t even look at the expression of reluctance on his face.

Wen Yanqing drove back home and noticed that Shi Jun had parked his car there, seemingly waiting for him.

“When did you arrive? Why didn’t you give me a call?” Wen Yanqing approached, carrying his belongings.

Shi Jun put his phone, which he had been absentmindedly fidgeting with, back into his pocket. “I haven’t been here for long. 1 was thinking about some things, so 1 didn’t call you.”

“Want to come up and sit?” Wen Yanqing extended an invitation.

Walking alongside him, Shi Jun entered the house.

Wen Yanqing opened the door, and the living room lights automatically turned on.

Shi Jun came in and took a seat. Wen Yanqing poured him a glass of water and went to attend to the Little Leopard Flower that he had just brought home.

The Little Leopard Flower was probably feeling a bit uncomfortable in its new surroundings. It remained inside its bamboo basket for quite some time before tentatively extending its claws and crawling out of the basket.

“You’re keeping this little one?” Shi Jun seemed surprised. “Do you even have the time?”

“It can already eat cat food and use the litter box. If I’m too busy, I’ll ask to come and check on it.”

Aunt Zhong worked for the Wen family, and Wen Yanqing would occasionally ask her to help with cleaning up around Yuanshui River.

Shi Jun withdrew his gaze from the Little Leopard Flower.

The sunflowers in the living room were quite eye-catching, causing Shi Jun to raise an eyebrow.

“Gantang gave them to me,” Wen Yanqing explained with a smile.

Just mentioning Lin Gantang seemed to soften his friend’s expression. Shi Jun shook his head and picked up his water glass. “How have you both been lately?”

“Good. 1 just came back from her place tonight,” Wen Yanqing replied.

“That’s good. The fact that Lin Gantang is willing to bring you home means she’s quite serious about your relationship now,” Shi Jun said as he gulped down half a glass of water. He stopped speaking and started spinning his glass, looking restless, as if he wanted to conjure a flower out of it.

“Ever since we went to March Bar the other day, I’ve noticed you zoning out from time to time,” Wen Yanqing mentioned, taking a seat across from him.

“I went to see Jiayao,” Shi Jun let go of the glass and slouched back on the sofa dejectedly.

Observing his friend’s demeanor, Wen Yanqing figured that the outcome probably wasn’t favorable. “You were the one who initiated the breakup back then, and now you want to reconcile?”

“Back then, she mentioned wanting to settle abroad. You know my family situation well. 1 can’t go abroad. So, I made the tough decision to break up with her.”

Shi Jun’s mother had a mental illness and was in a mental hospital.

Shi Jun’s father was unreliable and had divorced his wife. After sending his wife to the hospital, he only cared about his pleasures.

Worried about his mother, Shi Jun couldn’t just abandon everything to pursue love. He had a strained relationship with his father. Several years ago, he had started his own company and worked hard to achieve some success during which time he had been searching for a better psychiatrist.

“Did you explain your family situation to her?” Wen Yanqing asked.

“I did, but she said that in the years since the breakup, all those feelings had faded, and there was no need to bring up those things again,” Shi Jun replied, sounding disappointed.

Wen Yanqing picked up the Little Leopard Flower, which had been circling his feet, and said, “Back then, you even advised me to give up on Gantang. Now it’s your turn. What’s going on? Can’t you do it?”

Shi Jun chuckled in self-deprecation. “Our situations are different. Forget it.

I’m not the type to relentlessly pursue someone. Since I made the effort to come here, are you going to send me away with just a glass of warm water?”

Shi Jun seemed inclined to have a few drinks, so Wen Yanqing turned around to fetch a few bottles. “This is all I have at home. Finish your drink and rest. Excessive drinking is bad for your health..”
