Chapter 1360: If it weren’t for your third brother, I might have really ended up with him
"It’s coming up soon," Nangong Ran laughed. "I’m going to be the bridesmaid, and, and, I want a super huge, unbelievably huge, the biggest red envelope ever, remember to tell my third brother!"
"Yes, of course." Di Jinxuan nodded with a sweet smile.
Nangong Ran’s eyes widened, instantly joyous as she hugged Di Jinxuan, "Wow, sister-in-law, you are really so great, muah!"
After their laughter and frolic, Nangong Ran suddenly asked again, "Xuanxuan, did you know Bo Chenghe didn’t go abroad?"
"I knew," Di Jinxuan nodded, "Doesn’t everyone know?"
"What I mean is," Nangong Ran paused, asking seriously, "you know that he likes you, right?"
"I know," Di Jinxuan replied, "he told me."
"So what did you say?" Nangong Ran asked eagerly.
Di Jinxuan smiled, "Actually, with him, how should I put it, it was a twist of fate. When he told me these things, Nangong Jin was already pursuing me. Ranran, when it comes to feelings, indeed, there’s a first come, first served aspect to it."
As Di Jinxuan spoke, she looked over to Nangong Ran and took a deep breath, "I don’t really know how to explain it, I always felt complicated about Bo Chenghe. That he liked me, I’ve always vaguely known, though he never said it, and I never asked.
Until he left without saying goodbye, not even leaving a message, I felt like we might never have a chance again in this lifetime. Of course, he did tell me later, and I can understand, he really was under a lot of pressure at that time."
And everyone’s view on love is different, some people cling to it the moment they fall in love, striving to win at all costs, even if it shatters them to pieces. But some people have a more generous love, able to encompass and include a lot; like Bo Chenghe.
"I actually didn’t expect that at his age, he could have such an accommodating love. If Nangong Jin hadn’t come along, who knows, I might really have ended up with him."
What Di Jinxuan said was true, Bo Chenghe’s love may not seem as aggressive or intense, but upon closer reflection, the indulgence and magnanimity in it was deeply moving and touching.
Nangong Jin had also discussed Bo Chenghe with her in private, even Nangong Jin said, Bo Chenghe’s love, may initially seem despicable and weak, but in reality, it is very profound.
Therefore, Nangong Jin now harbors no animosity towards Bo Chenghe. Nangong Jin says that, perhaps, Bo Chenghe is the second man in the world, outside of her family, who loves her that much.
Or perhaps the first.
It’s just unfortunate that there was an accident, an interlude, a Nangong Jin appeared, and as it happened, Di Jinxuan fell in love with Nangong Jin. So, Bo Chenghe’s love was destined to end without fruition.
But his love, in some ways, truly deserves admiration: so steadfast, so unwavering. He watched her happiness, unobtrusive, undemanding, simply quietly guarding her.
As long as she was happy, he was willing to protect her like this for a lifetime.
Hearing Di Jinxuan’s words, Nangong Ran gave a bitter smile and spoke, "Bo Chenghe is a man worthy of deep affection, but it’s a pity his heart is all yours, and he might just end up alone for life."
Di Jinxuan frowned, "I don’t want that to happen."
That would make her feel guilty.
"Don’t be silly." Nangong Ran looked at her, "Matters of the heart are always voluntary. Just because you love me doesn’t mean I have to love you back. Bo Chenghe is free to make his own choices. You can’t control that, and life is unpredictable—who knows what might happen."
