Jiang Daoran burst out laughing when he heard these words from Long Ling'er.
He opened a can on his desk and took out a cube of sugar and put it into Long Ling'er's cup.
"Try the tea again."
Long Ling'er didn't say anything. She picked up the tea cup and took a small sip again.
The tea was still bitter.
But there was now a tinge of sweetness lingering in her throat.
Lin Yuzhen was that cube of sugar in Jiang Ning's life.
"I've given up,” Long Ling'er put the teacup down as if she was letting go of Jiang Ning. She sighed quietly, "As long as Lin Yuzhen is around, there's no way I can take him away from her."
"You should live your own life," said Jiang Daoran. "When the two of you were children, you two played together and you insisted on marrying him. But that was just something between children playing, and you would only know what love is after growing up."
'Tve been there before and I don't want you to feel pain and regret in the future. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Long Ling'er nodded.
"Jiang Ning won't bear to hurt you either,” continued Jiang Daoran. "He has always treated you like his younger sister and has always protected you and kept you from harm. I'm sure you can feel it too."
Jiang Daoran leaned against the sofa and smiled.
It was as if he didn't care about what Long Ling'er said earlier about how someone was going to kill him at the exhibition tonight.
He was more concerned about Jiang Ning.
He wanted Jiang Ning to live happily ever after. He didn't want Jiang Ning to go down the same path he did and hurt any of the women who loved and protected him.
"I understand," replied Long Ling'er. "Don't worry, I won't be a bother to them, and I can't be one anyway.”
If there was another woman in this world who could upset the relationship between Jiang Ning and Lin Yuzhen, that would make Long Ling'er even angrier.
She looked at Jiang Daoran and went back to the reason why she was here.
"Uncle Jiang, about tonight's exhibition..."
"The Pang family has never been so proactive before, so it'll look bad on me if they're so sincere and I refuse to attend," replied Jiang Daoran with a laugh. "Whatever will be, will be, you can't hide from it. Besides, there's no need to worry about news from such avenues."
