Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Our Friendship Ends Here

Yan Han spoke very earnestly, "No, I’m not jealous! Please feel free to do as you wish!"

Yan Han genuinely didn’t care if Yi Wei flirted with others. Even though he had always treated her as a younger sister, she had grown up, and it was only natural for her to fall in love. As long as the other party was dependable, Yan Han didn’t object.

Yi Wei stared at him as if she was trying to spot any trace of a lie or a facade on his face, but she ended up being disappointed.

There was really no trace of jealousy on his face.

Yi Wei found it hard to accept the fact that Yan Han didn’t love her and pointed to the gift she had just received, asking,

"If you mean nothing by this, then why did you give me a gift like this?"

Yan Han looked at her in confusion, "Didn’t you say you wanted matching gifts? I specifically had someone prepare it!"

He had gone through a lot of trouble to buy these two brocade scarves.

"So, both scarves are for me?" This time, it was Yi Wei who looked at him with a strange gaze.

"Of course!" Yan Han was decisive in his response, then got up to leave, announcing, "I have to go!"

He feared that if he didn’t leave now, Yi Wei would again confess her feelings for him.

For Yan Han, love and affection were utterly alien concepts. Or perhaps, even if they weren’t unfamiliar, to him they signified a burden.

From his grandparents, he had heard too many stories of his parents love, their trials and tribulations, defying their families, all for love, and their tragic romantic narratives over the years.

Therefore, from a young age, he considered love and affection to be nothing more than superfluous burdens.

He had never considered that the reason he and Yi Wei maintained such a good relationship for so long could be due to love and affection.

After Yi Wei’s confession, it only took Yan Han about half an hour to figure it out on his drive back home from the hotel.

The reason he and Yi Wei had been able to keep such a close relationship for so long was partly because his parents had instilled in him the concept that Yi Wei was his sister. On the other hand, it was because Yi Wei was able to tolerate all of him that others couldn’t endure.

As for him, his feelings towards Yi Wei were mostly habit.

Just like how he always kept his things in the same place.

Or how he would always do the same things at the same time: waking up, working out, eating, working, and sleeping, without exception.

So, to him, Yi Wei was nothing more than a sister who had been by his side since they were children.

It had nothing to do with affection, let alone love!

Having figured it all out within half an hour, Yan Han put Yi Wei’s matter behind him as soon as he got home.

He had thought that after explaining things to Yi Wei, they would quickly return to their previous relationship.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, Yi Wei brought her new boyfriend to the Yan family home for a visit. This boyfriend happened to be a well-known playboy in high society at the time

Yan Han had always been overly possessive about his belongings.

If he considered Yi Wei as his sister, then he had to ensure her happiness!

After all, he indeed cared about Yi Wei. It was just that the kind of care he had for her was different from what she wanted. It was completely just brotherly love towards a sister.

After all, Yi Wei was most probably the only one who could tolerate his quirky temper, that person who had accompanied him since he was young. To him, Yi Wei was a very important person.

That’s why he wouldn’t even blink an eye when sending her numerous expensive gifts.

Of course, he had money, but having money didn’t mean he liked to squander it around.

So, when he saw Yi Wei bringing that playboy into the Yan family’s living room, he unusually lost his temper in front of Yi Wei.

"Xiao Wei, if you insist on being involved with this guy, then our relationship ends here!" Of course, he didn’t mean to cut off his relationship with Yi Wei. His words were nothing more than an attempt to threaten Yi Wei.

But Yi Wei, whether she was acting or truly letting go, smiled and threw the brocade scarves he had gifted her in his face. Then, she left the Yan family’s house with the playboy.

A few days later, Yi Wei left the country with the notorious playboy, and afterwards, multiple versions of rumors emerged.

In the end, all versions converged into one: the Young Master of Yan family was heartlessly abandoned by Miss Yi, became jealous and resentful, and forced Miss Yi and another rich young man out of the country.

Yan Han paid no attention to these rumors.

In his view, ignoring them was preserving some dignity for Yi Wei. However, to others, it seemed like he was tacitly acquiescing to the rumors.

After Yi Wei left, Yan Han occasionally heard news about her. At first, naturally, there were stories of blissful love and happiness. Gradually, however, all the circumstances he had predicted started to happen to Yi Wei.

To sum up, Yi Wei was not doing well with that playboy, and her life was getting worse.

There was a twinge of guilt in Yan Han’s heart. If he hadn’t used such drastic measures against her, she probably wouldn’t have fled the country with that man out of spite.

So, he was partially to blame for her misery.

This sense of guilt and responsibility was why he went all out to save her five years ago when he found out she was in danger.

In the end, he rescued her, but Yi Wei was traumatized and regressed emotionally due to the shock.

The Yi Wei who was like a child, was extremely wary of the people around her. However, she seemed to rely on and trust him more than before.

He couldn’t ignore her in this state.

Even when taking care of Yi Wei led to Zhu Qianying misunderstanding him and leaving in a fit of pique, Yan Han never blamed Yi Wei.

If he were to blame anyone, it would be himself, for neglecting Zhu Qianying’s feelings because of his excessive worry for Yi Wei’s safety.

So, over these past five years, even though he suffered greatly due to Zhu Qianying’s departure, he maintained a brother-sister relationship with Yi Wei as before.

Even though Yi Wei didn’t seem quite the same as before, the doctors said that considering the extent of her injuries at that time, her recovery so far had actually been very good.

So, even though Yi Wei had become more wilful than before, Yan Han didn’t bother arguing with her.

He always felt that he was indirectly responsible for Yi Wei ending up the way she was now. Therefore, he felt he had to take on some of the responsibility for her current situation.

Perhaps due to deep-rooted influences from his childhood, he had a strange kind of trust and tolerance for Yi Wei, simply assuming that she had become a little more willful.

He never doubted or questioned Yi Wei about anything.

However, as it turned out, leaving the one he loved for the sake of a person like Yi Wei wasn’t worth it!
