“What are you doing here?” Nian Junting sat in front of him.
Ji Chuan frowned and said, “We’re like brothers. We grew up together. Are you never going to talk to me again? Junting, don’t forget that we used to fight side by side on battlefields. We stayed close friends even after you retired. All these years, you always asked me when I’d be back so we could get together. Every time I came back, we spent about 20 days together in a month. I had an accident, and you went to the border, no questions asked. I, Feng Ji Chuan, will never forget that you, Nian Junting, are my friend. But are you going to give up on our friendship because of a woman?”
Nian Junting rubbed the spot between his eyebrows while saying, “Ji Chuan, I’ve considered you as my brother the whole time, yet how have you treated me? I just think that you owe me a sincere apology.”
“Alright, I apologize. But I also need to tell you honestly that I didn’t know what Shuangwei had said to Luosang that day. I didn’t even know about your illness.” Ji Chuan crossed his fingers, nodded, and said, “Today, I came here because of Nian Xi. Before New Year’s, I asked for both sick leave and marriage leave. As I didn’t get married, the marriage leave has been canceled. I need to return to the army in just two weeks. Even though I’m planning to get a transfer back to this city, it’s gonna take three months at least. I want to make up with Nian Xi. Now, Xu Luosang has come back to you, so can you please talk to Nian Xi?”
“Can’t you even work things out with a girl? Do you need my help with that?” Nian Junting crossed his legs.
“Haven’t you been opposed to our marriage all this time?” said Ji Chuan sourly. “Nian Xi and I have been engaged for such a long time. Do you really want us to break up?”
“Ji Chuan, you’re right. I’ve been opposed to your marriage, because I was upset. If I’m not happy, none of you can be happy. However, you know Nian Xi. How many times has she actually listened to me since she was little?”
Nian Junting stood up, looked down at him, and continued, “I can’t help you. You need to go to find her. You need to let her know that you love her. You shouldn’t have asked Leng Shuangwei to be her maid of honor. Back then, when that thing happened, didn’t you see how hard it hit Nian Xi? She thought that she lived in a happy family, but in the end, that family fell apart. She loved our mother so much, yet you tried to stab our mom in her heart. Do you even care about Nian Xi’s feelings?”
Ji Chuan clenched his fists, lowered his head, and pressed his lips together. “But… I feel sorry for Shuangwei as well,” he said.
“You feel sorry for Shuangwei, but she’s only a friend of yours. Nian Xi is your fiancee, your lover.” Nian Junting frowned and said, “In the future, Shuangwei will also have a husband who loves her.”
“She won’t. She’s all about you.” Ji Chuan shook his head.
Nian Junting abruptly stared straight at him and continued, “No wonder Nian Xi suddenly had a fight with you. You put your girlfriend and a female friend of yours in the same position. If I did the same, Luosang would directly break up with me without giving me any chance at all.”
“I never put Nian Xi and Shuangwei in the same position.” Ji Chuan stood up and said, “I’m clearly aware that Nian Xi will be my other half.”
“Ji Chuan, Nian Xi respects you. No matter how embarrassed she felt, she never argued with you in front of Leng Shuangwei. She has shown you enough respect. So, if you really love her, please respect her, too. If you do not love her, please stay away from her.” Nian Junting continued in a bland tone, “I’m not gonna say more about it. From now on, I’ll leave you two to handle it alone.”
