That day, I couldn't hold back and called Xie Jin'an. He said, “Song Yan, the biggest regret of my life is ever meeting you. Please, just hurry up and die.”
After he hung up, I laughed at my own delusions. I'd actually hoped he might offer me even a little comfort. From the day Xie Jin'an's parents got into a car accident on their way to my graduation ceremony, the big brother I'd loved was gone for good.
I became a rising young painter with a modest reputation. Later, the truth about the accident involving the Xie family was exposed, and Xie Jin'an desperately begged me to forgive him.
