Chapter 670 Playing with the Doll (3)
"The thing I wanted most in the past now seems to be within my reach, but it is no longer what I desire," Qin Haowen said to Su Yanyi in front of him, his tone filled with sorrow.
"People always change," Su Yanyi was not the kind of person to offer a shoulder to cry on; her icy tone was far from comforting.
However, her words were extremely true, at least Qin Haowen nodded in agreement, admitting, "Yes, people do change. I’ve changed so much I barely recognize myself."
"What, do you regret it?" In the office, where only Su Yanyi and Qin Haowen were present, many matters regarding the Qin family were not something Su Yanyi wished Qin Jiran to know or see.
"No, but having such an outcome makes me feel that my past self was even more foolish. I used to fight and scramble for attention, filled with unwillingness, anger, blaming the heavens and the earth, wallowing in self-pity, all just to draw his gaze to me more. Yet, back then, no matter what I did, it was all in vain, and often, it backfired. I never would have thought that I could gain these things through such means. I find it absurdly laughable," Qin Haowen said.
Qin Haowen truly found himself ridiculous, desiring something but unable to have it, and now that he had it, it was through false pretenses. It turned out that sometimes, genuine feelings were less effective than lies!
"Don’t be too extreme," Su Yanyi said. Given the two percent of the shares at stake, she was in a good mood and didn’t drive Qin Haowen away, instead uttering a few more words than usual.
