Chapter 609 - 608: Goodbye! Jiang Mingqing!

Chapter 609: Chapter 608: Goodbye! Jiang Mingqing!

A few days later, Lin Chun was discharged from the hospital and returned home.

Although he wasn’t seriously ill, he still felt dizzy and uncomfortable from time to time.

Therefore, Lin Xia and the others didn’t rush to go out for fun, wanting to wait until he felt better before setting off.

Lin Dong went out to play with Haizi, whom he had previously arranged to meet, and Lin Qiu and Lin Xia were each busy with their own matters, so only Lin Chun was home in the back house.

After the accident, Lin Chun felt that he had changed a lot.

The things he hadn’t dared to think or do before now seemed not so difficult in his eyes.

His eldest sister was right; if he liked Jiang Mingqing, why not let her know?

Even if Jiang Mingqing were to reject him harshly to his face, he no longer felt that there would be any regrets.

Lin Chun picked out a crisp and spirited outfit for himself, and to cover the wound on his head, he specifically chose a khaki hat to wear.

Jiang Mingqing was in the office writing lesson plans, and she was genuinely surprised when Lin Chun suddenly came to the school to find her.

If it was said that Lin Dong was still attending classes there, it could be said that he was just stopping by to chat with her.

But now that Lin Dong had already finished his college entrance exams and left school, it was obvious that Lin Chun had come specifically to find her.

She didn’t understand what Lin Chun could possibly want with her.

However, since Lin Chun had come all the way, she couldn’t just ignore him.

Seeing Lin Chun wearing a hat and casual clothes, Jiang Mingqing raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise;

The temperature had risen today, and in this weather, wouldn’t wearing a hat be hot?

But since she wasn’t very familiar with Lin Chun, she didn’t have the nerve to ask.

The largest interaction between the two of them was probably just the time they chatted briefly in her second brother’s car on the day of Sheng Yijin’s wedding banquet.

So, she went straight to the point, "Lin Chun! Do you have something to talk to me about?"

Jiang Mingqing was unaware of Lin Chun’s hospitalization.

Lin Chun had organized his speech before coming; he knew what the outcome of his visit would be.

But he still chose to follow his heart and speak the words he wanted to say without regrets.

"A little something! Can we find a place to talk for a moment?" After all, the office was not a good place to talk.

Jiang Mingqing readily agreed, "Sure! Let’s go to the sports field."

As it was class time, there were not many people on the sports field.

The two of them walked to a shady area under a tree and stopped.

Jiang Mingqing glanced at her wrist, "Lin Chun! I don’t have much time, I have a class next period! Just tell me, what did you want with me?"

"Okay!" Lin Chun’s palms were sweaty with nervousness, his breathing rapid.

He blinked rapidly, "Actually... what I wanted to say to you today is..."

The rehearsed words he had prepared disappeared completely when he faced Jiang Mingqing.

At that moment, his mind went blank, his lips so wooden that he couldn’t even open his mouth.

Jiang Mingqing had a certain premonition rise in her heart, and her face flickered with a hint of embarrassment.

She had sensed Lin Chun’s interest in her long ago.

But she had never imagined that such a reticent and straightforward man would find her and say it to her face.

Lin Chun took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage, "Jiang Mingqing! I like you! From the very first moment I saw you, I fell for you!"

Having said what he wanted to say, Lin Chun felt a tremendous relief.

He stared at Jiang Mingqing, and even though he had guessed the answer she might give, his heart still uncontrollably awaited her response.

Jiang Mingqing was stunned, and she covered her mouth and coughed uncomfortably.

Truthfully, she didn’t dislike Lin Chun, but he was simply not her type.

"Lin Chun! Thank you for your affection, but I’m sorry, we’re not suitable for each other!"

Lin Chun suddenly smiled as if a great burden had been lifted, "It’s okay! I should thank you! Thank you for giving me the chance to say all this!"

After he finished speaking, he still had a faint smile on his face as he vigorously waved goodbye to her, "Farewell, Jiang Mingqing!"

Then, Lin Chun turned around and left.

Jiang Mingqing watched Lin Chun’s retreating figure with a straight back and confident strides, and was somewhat flabbergasted!

She was completely baffled by his series of actions, as she thought Lin Chun would say something more.

But he just left with a carefree smile!

Could it be that he only wanted to tell her his feelings and then leave?

She always felt that Lin Chun had changed...

Lin Xia returned home from outside and upon pushing aside the door curtain, she saw Lin Chun sitting quietly on the sofa, staring blankly in the direction of the loudly-playing television.

Clearly, he was not actually watching TV.

Lin Chun sensed the noise and came back to his senses, "Xiaoxia! You’re back!"

"Yes!" Lin Xia observed him carefully, "Big brother! What were you thinking about just now? You seemed so engrossed."

"Xiaoxia! I was thinking about things!" Lin Chun glanced at the clock in the living room, "Sit down, let’s have a talk, just the two of us siblings."

"Okay!" Lin Xia did as told and sat beside Lin Chun.

Lin Chun crossed his arms and after pondering for a moment, he began, "Xiaoxia! I went to find Jiang Mingqing!"

Lin Xia let out a surprised sound, "Big brother! You went without telling anyone in advance?"

"It was a sudden decision!"

"Then what happened?" Xiaoxia guessed at the outcome but still wanted to hear it from her big brother.

Lin Chun smiled lightly, "I told her I liked her, then she thanked me for my affection but said we weren’t suitable for each other.

Honestly, I had considered this outcome before I went, so it was expected!"

"Big brother! Don’t take it too hard!" Lin Xia tried to think of how to comfort him since it was the first time her big brother had confessed to someone he liked and got rejected.

Lin Chun waved his hand, "Actually, I’m not too upset! I said what I wanted to say, and I have no regrets. Actually, I feel quite relieved!"

"It’s the best if you can think this way!" Xiaoxia watched Lin Chun’s expression, trying to discern whether he was putting on a brave face.

But Lin Chun changed the subject, "Xiaoxia! I was thinking, once Dongzi goes off to college, and you go to Lu Zheng’s place,

should Xiaoqiu and I also start thinking about our future plans?"

"Big brother! What are your thoughts?"

"Xiaoqiu’s boyfriend is a decent man, and they’ve been maintaining their relationship through phone calls, which isn’t practical! So I’m thinking, after you leave, I will take Xiaoqiu to live with our grandfather,

that way, she can have more chances to interact with Kang Yijun..."

Lin Xia was extremely shocked. What Lin Chun was stating now surprised her even more than knowing he had confessed his love to Jiang Mingqing.

"Big brother! How did you suddenly decide to go live with grandfather? Is this a well-considered decision, or is it a spur-of-the-moment choice because of what happened today?"

Lin Chun candidly replied, "I’ve had this idea since I was in the hospital! Xiaoxia! You’ve worked so hard these years. Clearly, I’m the big brother and you’re the younger sister, yet you’ve always been doing the elder sister’s duties!

I’ve been particularly useless, accomplishing nothing, and many things haven’t been handled properly! Even now, you’re married, but you still worry about us every day and can’t peacefully reunite with Lu Zheng!"

"Big brother! Don’t talk like that... actually..." Xiaoxia’s voice grew nasal, she had never imagined her big brother would one day express such thoughts.

Lin Chun interrupted her seriously, "Xiaoxia! Listen to me until the end! I insisted on returning here to work, partly because you all were here, I had feelings for Jiang Mingqing, but more so because of my own cowardice.

I always felt uneasy about being in unfamiliar places, and even with our grandfather there, I couldn’t manage.

But ever since my accident and the dreams I’ve had, it’s as if I’ve had an epiphany!

I can no longer live as I did before. I have to take on the responsibilities of being a big brother and do the things I’m supposed to do..."
