Chapter 326 - 326 Diary
326 Diary
“Alright,” Bai Hong nodded.
In fact, if Chu Yang had not had a gun, he could have wiped out the power Chu Yang held in M City with a knife. His combat power was not on the same level as normal people.
He had only lost twice in his life. Once, in a surprise attack by Chu Ning, and another, when Chu Yang had pointed a gun at his head…
It was late at night.
However, Yan Shen had yet to enter a state of rest. Ever since he found out about his health problems, he had started to reduce his sleep intake every day. Yan Shen did not want to waste his time on sleeping.
Yan Shen started to have the habit of keeping a diary.
He prepared a notebook for himself. In the dead of night, he sat at a table, flipped open the cover page, dipped his pen in ink, and wrote down his true feelings.
“When I can’t fall asleep at night, I often sit by the window thinking about the things I’ve done, whether right, wrong, or those I regret. Every heart-breaking story in the world had a heartwarming beginning. There is no point in overthinking the good times. Because all of the time will be wasted and will come to nothing. Only in this way can we recall a certain period of time, dust it off, and exclaim that it was the best time.”
“I’m more eager than anyone else in this world for you to be happy. However, I still feel a little regretful that I won’t be able to share in this happiness. My dear Miss Chu, my friend, your eyes are beautiful. They can hold the elements, the passing of time, the mountains, rivers and clouds, flora and fauna, but they only cannot have sad tears. When we were at the amusement park, I empathized when I saw you risking your life.”
“Miss Chu, I saw an interesting topic yesterday. Is the ending of the story important? If a good story had an ending that shouldn’t have been there, would you be able to accept it? Perhaps the ending of the story isn’t important. The only thing we can be sure of is that we are all fading away. So, it is best not to let the ending take away the luster of the story itself. I really hope that the next scene in everyone’s story will be a line of subtitles: Many years later… You are all rays of sunlight to me, but it’s almost sunset, so it’s time to return them to the sun.”
Under the soft light, Yan Shen’s pen scratched intimately against the paper, his beautiful and neat handwriting arranged line by line.
After writing the final full stop, Yan Shen closed the pen cover.
He opened the window and the breeze brought the fragrance of gardenias. Yan Shen smiled.
Just as he was about to go to bed, there was a light knock on the door.
Yan Shen didn’t ask any questions. He stood up, closed his notebook, and opened the door.
“Why aren’t you resting yet?” Bai Ya walked in unceremoniously and sat down on a random stool as she smiled.
“I was just about to go to bed. Have there been a lot of things to do at the company recently? Why aren’t you resting at this time?” Yan Shen said with a smile.
“Take care of your health,” Yan Shen continued after hesitating for a few seconds.
“Oh? You’re actually concerned about me? It’s not very tiring, but there are some cumbersome things to do.” Bai Ya was a little surprised. In the past, Yan Shen had been a little disdainful of her, but now his attitude had changed so much.
“You’re too strong. There are some things that you don’t have to do personally. What I mean is that you should live a more relaxed life. Don’t feel too much pressure and do more of the things that you want to do. After all, Sister is a great beauty,” Yan Shen said gently.
“Something’s not right.” Bai Ya gave Yan Shen a strange look.
“Are you Yan Shen or not? This is not like you.” Bai Ya felt that she had made the right decision to come that day. In her memory, Yan Shen had only been like this when he had been little.
“I’m still me.” Yan Shen naturally wouldn’t tell Bai Ya the truth. The Yan family’s future developments had to depend on her.
“Alright, but it’s a good thing. You see, you’re smiling more now and much more handsome than before. I’m a little hungry now, can you go and prepare something for me to eat?” Bai Ya wanted to know if Yan Shen had really changed or if he was just pretending.
“No problem. Wait a moment, I’ll do it now.” Yan Shen nodded and left the room.
After a while, Bai Ya went to Yan Shen’s seat and flipped through his notebook.
“Little brother, when did you start having the habit of taking notes? Miss Chu, Chu Ning, your charm is beyond my imagination.” Bai Ya’s expression was dignified as she softly muttered to herself.
Of course, Yan Shen knew what Bai Ya was trying to do, but he didn’t care. After all, there was nothing in the notebook that was not meant to be seen by others.
The next morning, Ye Ting still didn’t show up until just before class started.
