Chapter 24: Joint Statement
This is not a world filled only with light. Where there is light, there must be darkness; the two exist inseparably.
Meng Chao’s intentions were clear to Lin Qin. He wanted to tell him not to be fixated on the darkness of the past. People should look forward, look toward the light, rather than confining themselves to the shadows of their history.
As long as we keep chasing the light, darkness will eventually fade away.
Lin Qin understood the reasoning, but some things cannot be resolved just because you understand them. There was still a wall in his heart, tall and unyielding, as solid and unbreakable as ever.
Seeing the difficulty etched on Lin Qin’s face, Meng Chao let out a light sigh and ruffled his hair gently. "It’s okay. We’ll take it slow."
Lin Qin murmured an acknowledgement before blurting out a sentence without thinking, "Brother Chao, will you always stay with me?"
The moment the words left his mouth, Lin Qin realized he had crossed a line. He had only known Meng Chao for just over half a month, and saying something like this was utterly inappropriate.
He quickly tried to explain himself, "I..."
But before he could finish, Meng Chao’s voice interrupted, "Okay, I will always stay with you."
