Chapter 2252: You have a good daughter!

Facing Liu Manqiong's questioning, Ye Chen no longer covered it up and asked Liu Manqiong: "Miss Liu, do you know that more than twenty years ago, your father promised a young man named Ye Changying that he would no longer trouble a young man named Chen Zhaozhong? But not long after that, Ye Changying died in an accident, and your father immediately broke his promise, causing Chen Zhaozhong to hide in Chinatown for more than twenty years?"

Liu Manqiong stared with wide eyes, looking at Ye Chen in disbelief, and asked him: "You... what is your relationship with those two people?"

Ye Chen said indifferently: "Ye Changying is my father, and Chen Zhaozhong is my father's friend."

Hearing this news, Liu Manqiong felt her scalp explode instantly. She stared at Ye Chen, choking up: "So, you came to Hong Kong and moved into our house, not to talk about cooperation with my father at all. You were calculating to approach our family and waiting for an opportunity to seek revenge on my father..."

As she spoke, her eyes instantly turned red, and tears couldn't help but fall. She asked softly: "So from the first time we met until before noon today, you were just acting, right?"

Ye Chen was suddenly stared at by Liu Manqiong's desolate eyes and felt a bit uneasy. He subconsciously explained: "I was acting, that's true, but I was only acting in front of Liu Jiahui."

Liu Manqiong, with tears in her eyes, questioned: "When you were in front of me, weren't you acting?! If you weren't acting, why did you hide your true identity and true intentions?!"

Ye Chen looked at Chen Zhaozhong and said indifferently: "I hid my identity and intentions to wait for today to seek justice for Uncle Zhong. You should know how much effort your father put into wanting Uncle Zhong's life. If I hadn't come, Uncle Zhong might have been assassinated the moment he walked out of this airport gate!"

Liu Manqiong looked in the direction of Ye Chen's gaze. When she saw Chen Zhaozhong, she couldn't help but feel ashamed.

So, she looked at Chen Zhaozhong, bowed deeply, and said very apologetically: "Mr. Chen, I had heard about my father wanting your life before. Regarding this matter, I have tried to persuade him many times over the years. He always used the excuse that your whereabouts were unknown to brush it off. I only learned from others today that you had returned to Hong Kong, so I rushed over, wanting to make it clear to my father that no matter what, he could no longer make things difficult for you."

Having said this, she looked at Ye Chen again and said resentfully: "It's just that I didn't expect that after rushing over, it would be the situation it is now..."

Liu Jiahui cried and said: "Manqiong... Dad really knows he was wrong. You plead with Mr. Ye. As long as you give Dad a chance to turn over a new leaf, Dad is willing to bear any price..."

Liu Manqiong sighed, looked at Ye Chen, bit her red lips, and pleaded: "Mr. Ye, I beg you, considering that my father hasn't committed any major mistakes, don't make things too difficult for him..."

As she spoke, Liu Manqiong looked at Liu Jiahui and added: "My father, although his style of conduct is not very upright and his character outside cannot be considered good, he is at an old age after all..."

"And... and I, as a daughter, know his character very well. He can't be considered a good person, but he can't be considered a bad person either. Compared to real villains like Hong Yuanshan, he is nothing more than narrow-minded and profit-seeking, but he has never truly harmed anyone's life. This time with Mr. Chen, it was thanks to your intervention that my father didn't commit any major mistakes..."

Liu Jiahui didn't expect that he would be such an image in his daughter's eyes.

However, he knew very well in his heart that everything his daughter said was true.

He couldn't be considered a good person, hadn't done any good deeds, and his style of conduct was even a bit sleazy, but he couldn't be considered a heinous villain either.

He had never killed anyone in his life, nor had he let anyone kill for him.

The only one he wanted to kill was Chen Zhaozhong, but he didn't succeed.

So, he knelt in front of Ye Chen again and begged: "Mr. Ye, Manqiong is right. I really haven't done anything heinous. Even if I'm not good, I'm not guilty of death. Please spare my dog's life. I will definitely give you all the money you want!"

At this time, Liu Manqiong also knelt down suddenly, lowered her head, and said: "Mr. Ye, money is something outside the body. As long as you can give my father a chance to turn over a new leaf, we won't hesitate no matter how much money it is!"

Ye Chen didn't expect Liu Manqiong to kneel down as well, so he reached out to help her up.

But Liu Manqiong resisted, while saying with a blank face: "Mr. Ye, if you don't agree, I won't get up. If you really want my father's life, then please kill me along with him."

Ye Chen looked at Liu Manqiong's resentful eyes and felt a pain in his heart, so he couldn't help but sigh, looked at Liu Jiahui, and said coldly: "Mr. Liu, you have a good daughter!"

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Zhaozhong and asked: "Uncle Zhong, how do you think this matter should be resolved?"

Chen Zhaozhong said respectfully: "Back to Young Master Ye, I just want to return home safely and reunite with my family. The rest is not important..."

As he spoke, fearing he hadn't expressed himself clearly enough, he said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, as long as Mr. Liu withdraws the bounty, I don't want to pursue anything else!"

Liu Jiahui was moved and ashamed when he heard this. He looked at Chen Zhaozhong, kowtowing while choking up: "Zhong, thank you for your great kindness. If I, Liu Jiahui, can survive, I will definitely do my best to repay your kindness!"

Ye Chen looked at Liu Jiahui at this time and said indifferently: "Liu Jiahui, considering Uncle Zhong and Miss Manqiong, I can spare your life."

Liu Jiahui was moved to tears with excitement, kowtowing repeatedly: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, thank you, Mr. Ye! Thank you for raising your hand, thank you!"

Ye Chen said coldly: "Don't be happy too soon. I spared your life, but that doesn't mean you don't need to pay other prices."

Liu Jiahui nodded repeatedly without hesitation: "I know, Mr. Ye, I know! 20 billion US dollars in ten years! Even if I have to smash the pots and sell the iron, I will definitely scrape it together!"

Ye Chen waved his hand and said indifferently: "I don't want your money."

"Ah?!" Liu Jiahui thought he had heard wrong and exclaimed: "Mr. Ye... you... what did you say?!"

Ye Chen said coldly: "Don't doubt yourself, you didn't hear wrong. I don't want your money!"

"Then..." Liu Jiahui became nervous again: "Ye Chen doesn't want my life, doesn't want my money, then what price does he want me to pay?! Does he want my legs and arms? Or does he want me to be paralyzed and lie in bed until I die?"

Just when Liu Jiahui was uneasy, Ye Chen looked at Chen Zhaozhong and said word by word: "Liu Jiahui, if you want me to let you go, listen carefully to the following things. As long as you can do them, I can let you go!"

Liu Jiahui nodded like a chicken pecking at rice without hesitation: "Mr. Ye, don't say a few things, even if it's hundreds of things, I agree!" ===== CHAPTER 2253 =====
