Translator: Paperplane Editor: Caron_
“You rember the most beautiful girl in school from the foreign languages departnt, right? She was every guy’s dream girl in school. There could’ve been as many as three circles of guys lined up around the track who wanted to get with her. Yet she never fell for anyone’s attempts. It wasn’t until fourth year when you had to go to Beijing that she found out, ran over to the male dorms, and stopped to confess to you...”
“At the ti, you had returned from playing ball with a group of us. In front of so many people, she didn’t flinch at all. She said so much; she even planned out how your future would be together. It sounded quite nice, and you both looked like a nice match. Truth be told, at the ti, I was a little interested in her. You know... This fair lady deserved a proper man. But at the ti, I felt like the two of you were quite the match, so I really liked the idea of you two together. Thinking back on it, many people had the sa thought. But that day, even after she said so much, you simply replied sorry.”
“The most beautiful girl in school asked why you rejected her. What did you say back then?”
Han Zhifan tilted his head and carefully thought about it for so ti before saying, “...After so many years, I still clearly rember what you said – that a person was probably only single because there was soone who was impossible to be with or soone who would never look back.”
At the ti, he thought He Jichen was just spouting nonsense to get rid of the girl.
That day, He Jichen went back to the dorm and stayed there quietly for a long ti. He didn’t say anything until the next day.
Up until now, he figured He Jichen was in a bad mood then because soone confessed to him, but he now realized that He Jichen was in a bad mood because those words stabbed his heart.
At that thought, Han Zhifan added, “...What about her? The supporting actress who left you all alone for so many years. Deep down inside, was she that soone who was impossible to be with or was she that soone who would never look back?”
He Jichen stared at the liquid through the crystal clear glass with a dull expression on his face for a long ti. Then he looked up at Han Zhifan and said, “Soone who’s impossible to be with.”
As He Jichen said this, he looked down with infinite sorrow in his eyes. When he spoke again, his voice was soft with a hidden, imnse sorrow. “But in any case, there’s a possibility. As long as it’s her, I would turn back with no hesitation, but she’s never given the slightest chance...”
After a pause, He Jichen said, “...and she’s never thought about giving a chance.”
The atmosphere in the room instantly turned a little somber.
The two of them stayed silently like that for a long ti until they’d almost finished drinking their glasses. Then Han Zhifan cleared his throat and changed the subject to sothing more interesting: “Oh, right! Today, the woman who helped take care of the supporting actress’s wound and your wound... is she the on-call doctor for the production cast and crew?”
“No, that was the screenwriter, Cheng Weiwan.”
“Cheng Weiwan is the writer of “Three Thousand Lunatics”? She’s so young! That can’t be right... wasn’t she a writer? How does she know about dicine?”
“Oh, her dad is Cheng Weiguo.”
Cheng Weiguo? Han Zhifan’s fingers suddenly gripped the tall glass hard. His voice sounded a little excited. “Cheng Weiguo? You’re telling that her dad is the world-famous doctor, Cheng Weiguo?”
He Jichen nodded gently and swiftly replied with one word, “Yeah.”
