Chapter 2928 I Don’t Care
Mrs. Jiang felt that it was probably because she was not thoughtful enough.
Looking at Jiang Huaizhou and Jiang Yujie, they were like siblings who were in love.
“Of course not!” said Jiang Huaizhou. “I do feel guilty towards Yujie. She did it all for me, so how can I not feel guilty? If I don’t feel anything at all, can I still be considered human? I would be an ingrate!
“However, I won’t lie to her by saying that I like her just because I feel guilty. That’s not repaying the favor, that’s hurting her.
“Lies that arise from guilt tarnish the relations.h.i.+p; it’s a hurtful thing,” said Jiang Huaizhou. “No matter what my feelings are for her, I must find her.
“I must let her know that I know about everything she did for me. In front of me, her worries are all unnecessary. I won’t look down on her or dislike her because of what she did for me, not to mention look at her with a strange gaze.
“To me, it’s all part of her experience. Who won’t have a past when dating? That’s just a part of the experience. I don’t care, and she doesn’t need to care either. That experience won’t be able to affect me nor her.”
“Think about it carefully again.” Mrs. Jiang was calmer now. “You want to find her, and I am glad that you don’t mind her past. But what about in the future? Can you still not mind it?
“All of Yujie’s worries arose because of you; she’s worried that you would feel guilty and won’t know how to face her. While feeling guilty because of her sacrifices, you will dwell on her past.
“I can totally understand her feelings,” said Mrs. Jiang. “And although B City is not small, it’s not big either. In the circle that we live in and socialize in, there will always be a place where we meet others.
“We will always meet people who know about Yujie’s past. Her ex-colleagues and the people she has met during a party when she attended events with Lu Qiyuan. And those neighbors in our old house. They will gossip about Yujie’s past.
“It looks like B City is so big, but actually, when socializing outside, we will always meet people we’re familiar with, or people who are related to those we’re familiar with.” Mrs. Jiang sighed.
“During that time, there will definitely be people who’ll talk about Yujie. At that time, can you still maintain your current att.i.tude without changing? Once people talk about Yujie’s past and criticize her secretly and you see that, can you still be unaffected?
“Yujie is not afraid of anything else, but she’s afraid of people’s words!” said Mrs. Jiang seriously. “You say that you don’t care now, but when so many people are talking about it, can you still not care?”
“I don’t care,” said Jiang Huaizhou firmly. “I am quite stubborn when it comes to certain things; you know that. Once I accept something, I won’t change my mind.”
“Even if you became succussful and have many achievements?” asked Mrs. Jiang further. “You’re starting a business now. Yujie believes in your skills, and I do too.”
“Let’s not talk about what will happen if you don’t succeed. If there’s an opportunity to succeed, you will definitely grab hold of it. You won’t be unaccomplished your whole life, right?! Even if you’re willing to live like this for Yujie, Yujie still won’t accept you.
“And I believe that in such a short time, your career will bear fruit.”
