My Youth Began With Him

“Yes… He is quite handsome… Okay, that’s enough. Stop asking me such strange questions and making me feel uncomfortable. Let’s go, I will take you two out for a swim.”

Falling into Pudding’s trap of video calling Su Yu made Qin Ning feel very awkward.

Therefore, she decided to not talk to Pudding about Su Yu anymore. Instead, she continued to play with the twins by the ocean.

After they got back that night and had dinner, the twins were so tired that they fell asleep on the sofa.

Qin Chu and Mrs. Qin both held one of each and went upstairs to put them to bed…

Huo Mian and Qin Ning sat down in the garden, drinking coffee and enjoying the night view.

“Sister-in-law… During your toughest moments, did you ever think about giving up on Chu?” Qin Ning asked softly.

“What do you mean by giving up? As in breaking up with him? Or..?”

“As in when everyone else thought he was dead… did you also believe it?”

“To tell you the truth, during the roughest times, I did think that way. However, most of the time I believed that Qin Chu was still alive. It is really due to this belief that I was able to survive until now.”

“Sister-in-law, I heard that Su Yu likes you a lot,” Qin Ning said hesitantly. In the past, she didn’t know Su Yu well, only that he was in love with Huo Mian. She also knew that he was Qin Chu’s biggest threat, but now it seemed like he was the reason that Huo Mian and the kids survived and were able to run back into Qin Chu’s arms when he returned. Therefore, it didn’t matter whether Su Yu liked Huo Mian, he was and will forever be the Qin Family’s savior.

“You know Su Yu?” Huo Mian was slightly shocked, thinking that they didn’t meet at all since Qin Ning didn’t stay in China for very long.

“Oh, I don’t know him… It’s just that he has been video calling Pudding and Little Bean over the past few days and I got the chance to get to know him. I just thought he seemed like a pretty good guy…”

Huo Mian nodded. “Yes, he’s a very nice person… He’s very honest and never pretends to be what he’s not, nor does he care to. Therefore, he’s very easy to be around.”

“Then have you ever felt anything more towards him? Even a little bit?” Qin Ning probed while carefully observing Huo Mian’s expression.

After a few seconds of silence, Huo Mian laughed lightly. “If I didn’t have your brother, I think I would definitely have fallen in love with Su Yu. However, there are no ifs in life. After meeting your brother, I could never able to fall for anyone else. Maybe your brother cast a spell on me.”

“So even if my brother didn’t go back to find you, you still wouldn’t get together with Su Yu?”

A lot of people had asked Huo Mian this question, including Tang Chuan, Jiang Xiaowei, Zhu Lingling and even Su Yu himself.

Huo Mian had already answered them very clearly.

So she didn’t mind answering the question one more time.

“That’s right, Ning. Even if your brother never came back, I still wouldn’t choose Su Yu. My heart’s belonged to Qin Chu ever since I met him. Even if he really died and was gone forever, our beautiful memories still exist. It’s not like I lost my memory. I can’t forget him, thus I can’t love another person. That’s something I’m not capable of doing.”

“Okay, I understand… You’re the same as Chu, you’re both very dedicated.”

Qin Ning deeply admired Huo Mian…

“That’s why, in this world, we are the most suitable for each other.” Huo Mian laughed.

Then she looked at Qin Ning and said, “Over the last four years… it must have been tough on Qin Chu, right?”

“My brother didn’t tell you?” Qin Ning was slightly shocked.
