Chapter 2255: Loving the house and its crow

~8 min read 1,517 words

After that hitman fell to his death, several hitmen hiding in the crowd outside the airport exit were also instantly subdued by other Wanlong Palace members disguised as ordinary people.

And the hitmen hiding in cars waiting for an opportunity didn't even have time to react before they were instantly blocked front and back by cars driven by Wanlong Palace members. Before they could react, they were broken into by Wanlong Palace members and taken away directly.

These hitmen only realized now that they had been under the strict surveillance of the Wanlong Palace warriors all along. Those hitmen who left the scene immediately after receiving the news of the bounty withdrawal were not bothered by the Wanlong Palace, while they, who were unwilling to leave, directly became prisoners of the Wanlong Palace.

At this very moment, in the VIP lounge of the airport, Liu Jiahui said to Ye Chen with relief: "Mr. Ye, the bounty has been withdrawn. Those hitmen must have received the news. You can rest assured..."

Ye Chen ignored him but looked at Wan Pojun and asked: "Pojun, is everything settled?"

Wan Pojun said respectfully: "Mr. Ye, the bounty has indeed been withdrawn, but there were still some hitmen who didn't leave within our surveillance range. However, our people have already dealt with them; one was killed, and seven were captured."

"Well done." Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "Send these seven people to Syria as well, so as not to affect the long-term stability of Hong Kong."

Wan Pojun immediately cupped his hands and said: "Your subordinate obeys!"

Ye Chen looked at Liu Jiahui and said indifferently: "Mr. Liu, the grudge between you, me, and Uncle Zhong will be completely drawn to a close after you return from Ye Ling Mountain in Yanjing. If you want to cooperate with Yisu Shipping, I will arrange for someone to connect with you at that time. As long as you can keep your promise from now on, I, Ye Chen, have no other requirements for you, and I won't make things difficult for you again."

Liu Jiahui finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and said respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your magnanimity!"

As he spoke, he hurriedly said to Chen Zhaozhong: "Zhong, I will write you a check for the money I promised you today!"

Chen Zhaozhong, who was on the side, said: "Young Master Ye, I don't want this money. Let's donate it all."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "How to dispose of this money is your freedom, Uncle Zhong. No matter what, I support it."

Chen Zhaozhong then said: "I have been hiding in the United States for these years and have seen many Chinese orphans like Qiangzai. So, 20% of this money will be used to support those Chinese orphans stranded overseas, and the rest will all be donated to Project Hope."

"Good." Ye Chen had no objections and said: "Uncle Zhong is a person with great love. Since you have decided, let's do it according to your wishes."

At this time, Fang Jiaxin, who had been silent, struggled for a long time before she couldn't help but remind him: "Zhong... your... your mother has a cerebral stroke, and her physical condition is very poor. She is hospitalized in the church hospital. You should keep some money to treat her illness..."

Chen Zhaozhong was stunned and blurted out: "When did this happen?!"

"Just a few days ago..." Fang Jiaxin didn't dare to look into Chen Zhaozhong's eyes and said in a low voice: "I went to the hospital to see her. The doctor said the situation is not optimistic. It's best to send her to the United States for treatment; otherwise... I'm afraid she doesn't have much time left..."

Chen Zhaozhong was flustered in his heart. He looked at Fang Jiaxin and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mrs. Liu."

After saying this, he turned to Ye Chen and said: "Young Master Ye, I want to go see my mother first!"

Ye Chen said: "I'll go with you, Uncle Zhong."

Chen Zhaozhong hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, saying respectfully: "Then I will trouble you, Young Master Ye."

Ye Chen said to Wan Pojun: "Pojun, prepare the car. We're going to the church hospital."

"Okay, Mr. Ye."

Ye Chen turned to Liu Jiahui and said: "Mr. Liu, you can go too. Hurry up and handle the remaining matters. It would be best if you can get the villa matter settled by tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, okay!" Liu Jiahui nodded without hesitation and said: "Mr. Ye, rest assured, I will solve this matter tonight!"

Ye Chen nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Liu Manqiong, who had red eyes on the side, and cupped his hands: "Miss Manqiong, I have offended you today, please forgive me."

Liu Manqiong looked at Ye Chen with a pair of teary eyes, sulking. She wanted to say something, but didn't say anything.

Liu Jiahui hurriedly reminded her in a low voice: "Manqiong! Mr. Ye is talking to you! What are you still doing, stunned? Why

Liu Manqiong stubbornly turned her face to the side and reached out to wipe away the tears sliding from the corners of her eyes.

Ye Chen felt a sense of guilt, but not knowing how to explain, he said to Liu Jiahui, "Mr. Liu, since Miss Manqiong does not wish to speak to me, you need not force her."

Liu Jiahui gave an awkward, sheepish laugh and said, "My daughter is ignorant of etiquette... I hope you will forgive her, Mr. Ye..."

Ye Chen shook his head slightly, turned to look at Fei Kexin, and said, "Miss Fei, thank you and Mr. Yuan for flying such a long way here. If you are not in a hurry to return, I will treat you to dinner tonight."

Fei Kexin smiled and said, "Alright, I am not in a hurry at all. If Mr. Ye still needs to stay in Hong Kong for a day or two, I can wait for you here. After Mr. Ye has finished handling your affairs, we can return together."

"Good." Ye Chen nodded readily in agreement. He planned to set off for the United States after Uncle Zhong's family moved into their new home. Since Fei Kexin was not in a hurry to leave, he could take the same flight with her then.

Fei Kexin asked Ye Chen again, "Mr. Ye, which hotel are you staying at?"

Ye Chen looked at Liu Jiahui and Liu Manqiong and said, "I haven't found a hotel yet."

Fei Kexin had also roughly figured out the situation, so she said, "Then let me choose a hotel and book a room for you as well."

Ye Chen nodded: "Then I will trouble you, Miss Fei."

Liu Manqiong looked up at Ye Chen, wanting to say something, but she did not speak.

Liu Jiahui, standing to the side, was rather disappointed. Although he had just been bullied by Ye Chen, he still had the shameless urge to continue inviting Ye Chen and Fei Kexin to stay at his home.

However, he also knew that in this situation, if he still wanted to save face, he really could not bring himself to make the request, so he hesitated for a long time and said nothing.

Ye Chen did not delay any further and left with Chen Zhaozhong and Wan Pojun.

Fei Kexin was also preparing to leave, but before she left, she specifically came to Liu Manqiong, took a business card out of her bag, took the initiative to hand it to Liu Manqiong, and said with a smile, "Miss Liu, I am Fei Kexin. This is my business card. If you have any needs in the future, you can contact me at any time."

Liu Manqiong was still immersed in a daze and pain. Suddenly seeing the business card Fei Kexin handed over, she was completely taken aback.

She had arrived later, so she had not even spoken to Fei Kexin. She did not know why this famous head of the Fei family would take the initiative to give her a business card.

Liu Jiahui, standing to the side, saw his daughter still in a daze and hurriedly reminded her in a low voice, "Manqiong, Miss Fei is talking to you!"

Liu Manqiong then came back to her senses and said in a panic, "Thank you, Miss Fei..."

Fei Kexin smiled kindly and said earnestly, "No need to be so polite."

Having said that, she stuffed the business card into Liu Manqiong's hand and smiled indifferently, "Miss Liu, I have things to do, so I will leave first. Let's stay in touch later."

Liu Manqiong nodded gently, exchanged some pleasantries, and then watched Fei Kexin leave.

Fei Kexin took Yuan Zixu out of the airport, and Yuan Zixu asked with some confusion, "Eldest Miss, you seem to be very concerned about that Miss Liu?"

Fei Kexin smiled slightly, shook her head, and said, "It is Mr. Ye who is more concerned about her; I am just loving the house and its crow."
