Chapter 369 Should Shen Weisheng Stop Shen Youlin?
There was a very cold silence between He Jian and Shen Weisheng after whatever the latter said.
It was after a long time, He Jian coldly spat out.
"Why would Lanlan refuse to accept my feelings?"
He Jian couldn't really think of any reason. However, the mere mention that Mo Roulan could refuse to accept his feelings bothered him very much and it could be seen very nicely from his cold face.
"There can be many reasons."
Shen Weisheng also pointed out actively.
"The most prominent reason can be the difference between your age. You are at least five or six years older than her, Jian."
A frown marred He Jian's forehead at these words.
He had actually thought about this but he had also researched. After his research, He Jian had found that there are actually many couples who are married despite the large age gaps and living happily.
Lanlan's and his age gap was just six years!
It should not be that big of a problem, right? Or will it be?
He Jian now didn't really know when he saw Shen Weisheng's firm eyes.
He had never felt so low confident before but this matter surely made him feel insecure and lowered his confidence.
In all his life, he had liked just one person this much but even that person….getting close to her was seeming to be so difficult suddenly.
Shen Weisheng didn't seem to see this and continued
"Maybe she doesn't even feel that way for you, Jian. There can be many reasons, Jian. You can't think that Mo Roulan would accept you just like that. Maybe…she already has someone else inside her heart."
He Jian's fists were clenched tightly as he heard everything Shen Weisheng said silently.
Every word seemed to stab his heart mercilessly but he also seemed to be thinking over everything Shen Weisheng said.
Shen Weisheng just stayed silent.
A few moments later when he didn't hear anything from He Jian. he spoke but quite gently this time
"Jian, Mo Roulan doesn't know about your feelings for her also and it is not guaranteed that she would really accept them. You don't have any right to push away those who want to win her heart. Whether it is Cheng Yang or Shen Youlin."
Shen Weisheng said as he remembered the things Fang Zhihan had told him about Cheng Yang. contemporary romance
"Mo Roulan has the right to explore and get to know with whom she feels comfortable to spend the rest of her life and if she thinks that that person is not you then she also has the right to reject you. You can't force your emotions on anyone, Jian."
Shen Weisheng sighed again when he didn't hear anything from He Jian after he finished.
He turned around to leave but he had just turned around when He Jian spoke.
"Of course, she does have the right to explore. She can explore as much as wishes but she is fated to return to me in the end. I won't let her go even if she rejects me but I won't force her also. I will wait as long as she wants. I will wait for her to have the same feelings for me. I will wait for her to accept me but I won't let anyone have her."
When Shen Weisheng turned around this time, he had a deep frown on his forehead.
"Jian, that is also forcing her."
"I know…"
He Jian smiled helplessly this time. His eyes were filled with something else…
something that Shen Weisheng saw there for the first time.
It was fear.
"I am very selfish for her. I can't see her with anyone else except me. I can't even accept that thought. I can promise to keep her happy …to give her anything she wants but I can't let her go because…" there seems to be great pain inside his chest whenever he thinks about Mo Roulan leaving him.
Because he can't live without her.
He Jian never said this to Shen Weisheng but Shen Weisheng could feel it.
He suddenly understood why Fang Zhihan had said that Mo Roulan was He Jian's bottom line.
One question however surrounded Shen Weisheng's mind constantly now.
Should he really stop his sister or let her continue her path?
Because from what he could see, He Jian would never let Shen Youlin win.
As if seeing his thoughts, He Jian said suddenly in his cold voice.
"You should stop her, Weisheng. The pain might be lesser than the pain she would feel later…"
Shen Weisheng looked conflicted and He Jian continued
"I know that you feel guilty and regret whatever you did in the past and hence you feel obligated to take a stand for your sister but the way you are choosing to push away the guilt and reconcile with her…it is wrong."
The next few words, He Jian in a quite less cold tone as if he was trying to make Shen Weisheng understand.
"Fight to make her stay with someone who will love her the way she wants…Lanlan really doesn't love her that way, so she is already in the wrong direction."
After that, He Jian patted Shen Weisheng's shoulder and left the balcony before Shen Weisheng while the latter stood there looking at nothing in particular.
Shen Weisheng seemed to be in a daze.
He suddenly remembered his father's face.
The face was a little blurry in his memory but the words he had said to him were very clear.
"Xiao Sheng, you need to protect your sisters in the future. They are your responsibility."
At that time, he remembered that he really had said to his father that he will protect Shen Yiling and Shen Youlin in the future.
However, time changed everything.
Shen Yiling, his mother, and everything else changed so much after his father left that Shen Weisheng couldn't even get a hold of his real self.
He was struggling to stay sane so how could he remember anything else!
And when he came back, he didn't feel any need to protect Shen Yiling. He didn't feel any brotherly affection after seeing her actions and the one who was really genuine towards him.... he pushed her away.
And now today he suddenly seemed to remember his father's words.
He was to protect Shen Youlin, to make her happy …but how could he do that when her happiness lay in Mo Roulan whom…she would never get!
