Chapter 272: Chapter 271: The Past

Qi Yue: “Think again, she was quite pretty and even the star of the women’s shooting team…”

Qi Wanli shook his head, still unable to remember.

Qi Yue scratched his head and then continued, “The girl who beat you by 0.1 points in a ten-meter air pistol friendly match, remember her now?”

Qi Wanli immediately said, “Are you talking about Qin Xi?”

He finally remembered…

Qi Yue sighed helplessly, “Yes…”

Qi Wanli always focused solely on his training and paid no attention to outside matters, especially girls, so it was understandable that he had no impression.

Qi Yue went on to ask, “Do you know that Second Uncle had a crush on a girl when he was young?”

Qi Wanli thought for a moment: “I’m only aware that he was quite down for a while, apparently over a girl… Was that girl Qin Xi?”

Qi Wanli asked with a skeptical look, “Why bring this up all of a sudden?”

Qi Yue sighed, his expression somewhat resigned as he began, “I knew you wouldn’t know…”

Qi Yue organized his thoughts and slowly began: “Yes, the girl Second Uncle had a secret crush on was Qin Xi. You know how he is, always coming off as energetic, but he was always hesitant with matters of the heart. He had a secret crush on that girl for five years and never dared to confess his feelings! However, he had another reason for not confessing… because he discovered…”

Qi Yue paused, glanced at Qi Wanli, and revealed, “He found out that Qin Xi had someone she liked… and the person she liked… was you…”

“Me…?” Qi Wanli looked utterly astonished, clearly unaware.

Seeing Qi Wanli had no clue, Qi Yue wasn’t surprised and continued, “One Valentine’s Day, Qin Xi came to Second Uncle with a jar of paper cranes. Second Uncle then helped to pass the jar of paper cranes to you, do you remember that?”

Qi Wanli thought hard for a moment, then apologetically said, “Sorry, I really don’t remember that…”

Qi Yue glanced at her father, “Well, you were doing well then, handsome, serious about training, and the team captain, an all-around commendable guy. It’s no wonder you left no impression, with so many girls liking you…”

Qi Wanli didn’t expect his daughter to suddenly praise him. He touched his face, looking slightly uncomfortable, “That was all in my youth…”

Qi Yue said this with a resigned smile, “Sounds a bit melodramatic, doesn’t it? But the really melodramatic part came later… It was years later when Second Uncle discovered that the girl he liked, it wasn’t actually you she was fond of, but himself…”

Surprised, Qi Wanli asked, “Did the girl confess to him?”

Qi Yue shook his head, “No, by that time the girl had already retired and got married. Second Uncle found out himself. Once, he found the jar of paper cranes she had asked him to give to you in the storeroom. He accidentally broke the jar and saw there was writing on the cranes. That’s when he unexpectedly found out that on every single paper crane it was written, ‘Qi Qianli… I like you…'”

It was Qi Qianli, not Qi Wanli.

On every one of the hundred paper cranes, it said the same thing.

The fool had misunderstood for so long, always thinking that Qin Xi liked his brother, and when the girl brought him gifts, he thought she was asking him to pass them to his brother…

Qi Wanli: “…”

Qi Wanli was probably not expecting this turn of events and was stunned for quite a while.
