Chapter 2258: Warm Softness

Meanwhile.

The Liu family had also taken a car back to their mansion on Shixun Road.

On the way back, Liu Jiahui sat in the same car as Fang Jiaxin, while Liu Manqiong drove her own Tesla.

Liu Jiahui saw his daughter's distracted and lost state, so he wanted her to ride back with him, but Liu Manqiong refused.

Liu Manqiong was upset and wanted to be alone, but she did not expect that on the drive back, the only thing in her mind was Ye Chen.

She always subconsciously thought of every little detail since she met Ye Chen. The more she thought, the more she felt that Ye Chen seemed to have been branded into her heart.

However, when she thought about how Ye Chen had been deceiving her from beginning to end, she could not help but feel a lot of resentment toward him.

Fortunately, although she was burdened with worries, she did not encounter any unexpected events on the way back and safely drove home.

After she parked the car, Liu Jiahui got out of the front car as if he had lost his soul. He looked as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and even his movements were somewhat inconvenient.

Seeing this, Fang Jiaxin hurriedly supported him and asked with concern: "Jiahui, are you okay?"

Liu Jiahui sighed, waved his hand weakly, and said: "Let's talk when we get home."

Liu Manqiong also felt some heartache for her father and hurriedly walked to the other side to support him.

After the three entered the villa, Liu Jiahui let the two bring him to the sofa to sit down.

The moment he sat down, Liu Jiahui let out a long sigh of relief and sighed to himself: "I, Liu Jiahui, have lived for over fifty years, and today is the most terrified day..."

Fang Jiaxin, who was on the side, wiped her tears and choked up: "I'm sorry, Jiahui, it's all my fault..."

"It's not your fault." Liu Jiahui waved his hand and sighed: "It's that I have been too arrogant all along. I always felt that a mere Chen Zhaozhong was nothing but a bedbug in front of me, and as long as he appeared, I could crush him... But I never imagined that the Ye Changying who dominated the scene back then would actually have a son..."

Fang Jiaxin said: "I've heard Chen Zhaozhong mention that Ye Changying before. If I remember correctly, he seems to be the son-in-law of the An family in the United States."

"Yes..." Liu Jiahui said with lingering fear: "Ye Changying back then had great fame in the Chinese sphere, but what was most famous was his wife, An Chengxi... That was truly the pride of the Chinese... Whoever spoke of her couldn't help but give a thumbs up..."

As he spoke, Liu Jiahui added: "I used to think that his family of three had all died. After all, I never heard the news that their son was still alive. I didn't expect that their son would be no ordinary person... Let alone the An family, this giant, just the Wanlong Palace alone is enough to make people tremble with fear..."

He paused and sighed: "With such a backer, Chen Zhaozhong, I have lost this time with complete conviction."

Fang Jiaxin hurriedly said: "Jiahui, when you go to Yanjing in a few days, I will accompany you."

Liu Jiahui looked at her and said earnestly: "Going to Yanjing is very hard. Ye Chen asked me to repent before his father's grave and not leave for three months. By then, I'm afraid I'll be sleeping in the open and eating in the wind, and I don't know how much suffering I'll have to endure."

"It's okay!" Fang Jiaxin said without hesitation: "Since we are husband and wife, we must share the hardships together."

Liu Jiahui laughed at himself and suddenly said: "Actually, if you still have Chen Zhaozhong in your heart, you can consider rekindling your old relationship with him. He now has a backer like Ye Chen, and with his own outstanding ability, his future will definitely be limitless."

Fang Jiaxin hurriedly shook her head and said: "Jiahui, I told you when I returned from the United States that he and I are finished, and it is impossible to go back in this lifetime. For so many years, I have felt more guilt toward him. After all, it was I who caused him to drift outside for so many years, so I have always secretly taken care of his family, just to make myself feel better..."

As she spoke, Fang Jiaxin's eyes filled with tears. She looked at Liu Jiahui and said sincerely: "Jiahui, after today's events, he can safely return to Hong Kong and safely reunite with his family. The hurdle in my heart can be considered passed. From now on, I just want to live a good life with you, just like the vows we made when we got married, whether in poverty or sickness..."

Liu Jiahui, who had spent his life among flowers, suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of being moved.

In the past, he had a high-and-mighty attitude toward every woman. He felt that these women were objects of his favor and were extremely lucky to receive his favor.

It was precisely because of this detached mindset that he could spend so many years indulging in flowers.

Although Fang Jiaxin was the one he liked the most among all his women, in his heart, he still looked down on her.

Fang Jiaxin's departure with Chen Zhaozhong to the United States back then was, in his eyes, like his favorite toy being snatched away. After Fang Jiaxin returned, he just wanted to tie this lost-and-found toy by his side forever.

But if asked whether he really loved Fang Jiaxin, his answer would definitely be negative.

Even though he did indeed like Fang Jiaxin back then, after Fang Jiaxin left once, he had been controlling himself not to invest too much in this woman.

And all these years, he had been implementing this very well.

Although Fang Jiaxin was honored as Mrs. Liu, she had no opportunity to control his family property. Even if they were married, she was just a canary kept in captivity.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt that the depths of his heart had been touched by Fang Jiaxin's words just now.

He had spent his life indulging in flowers with full pride, but the moment he knelt before Ye Chen to beg for mercy, his pride had long since vanished.

Now, he was more like a general who had lost a battle. He had lost his former pride, but because of the woman by his side who would not leave him, a trace of softness emerged in the depths of his heart.

It was a trace of softness that could make a loser feel a little warmth.

So, he sighed softly, nodded, and said: "If you have really let go of him in your heart, then we will live our lives well from now on. Past matters will be written off."

Hearing this, Fang Jiaxin's tears flowed like a spring.

All these years, she also knew Liu Jiahui's attitude toward her.

Although she was unwilling, she at least had self-knowledge and knew why Liu Jiahui held a grudge against her.

For so many years, she had always wanted to find an opportunity to eliminate this barrier, but she had always been unable to do so.

But who would have thought that after Liu Jiahui encountered a disaster today, the grudge in his heart toward her would suddenly be eliminated? This made her incredibly excited.

Liu Manqiong, who was on the side, also underwent subtle changes in her heart.

In the past, she had many dissatisfactions with Fang Jiaxin, but now, she suddenly felt some sympathy for this woman.

Moreover, seeing that she and her father could completely eliminate the barrier, Liu Manqiong felt a bit of relief in her heart.

However, she did not want to watch the two confess their true feelings here, so she stood up and said: "I'll go back to my room to rest for a while."

Liu Jiahui hurriedly asked: "Manqiong, have you contacted Ms. Fei?"

"No." Liu Manqiong asked in surprise: "Why do you ask about this?"

Liu Jiahui said: "I just feel that you can have more contact with Ms. Fei."

Liu Manqiong shook her head and said: "She and I are not from the same world, there is nothing to contact."

Liu Jiahui said earnestly: "Ms. Fei must know Ye Chen better. From her, you should be able to know some information related to Ye Chen!" ===== CHAPTER 2259 =====
