No, you never think of me now. I can easily believe that you were not thinking of me in the least. 压根没想到，你现在怎能想到我，显而易见，你根本不会想到我。
But I said that only to prove to you that I could not be thinking ill of you, my dear. 可是，我刚才说的只不过向你表明，我不可能把你想歪了，亲爱的。

so, for my sake, if not for your own, be composed, and do not torment 4 yourself with such fancies. 为我想想，哪怕不是为你自己，心静点，别让这些念头折磨你自己。
