Chapter 2260: I Have No Right to Blame You

Seeing the graceful Liu Manqiong not far away, Ye Chen's first reaction was surprise.

Immediately after, he looked at Fei Kexin and asked in confusion: "Ms. Fei, what is the situation?"

Taking advantage of the fact that Liu Manqiong had not yet arrived, Fei Kexin smiled slightly and whispered: "I invited Miss Liu over. I didn't report it to you in advance, Mr. Ye, I'm really sorry."

As she spoke, Fei Kexin added: "I also saw that there seemed to be some misunderstanding between you and Miss Liu, so I thought about giving you and Miss Liu a chance to sit down and have a good chat. Otherwise, if we go back tomorrow or the day after, you won't have such a good opportunity if you want to clear up the misunderstanding with Miss Liu in person."

Ye Chen really did not expect Fei Kexin to observe so meticulously and consider things so unexpectedly.

However, although Ye Chen was surprised, he also felt a bit more grateful toward Fei Kexin.

In fact, he also wanted to have a good talk with Liu Manqiong before leaving Hong Kong. He did not force her to understand the original intention of his actions, but at least he had a chance to apologize in person.

To say he felt guilty toward Liu Manqiong, Ye Chen naturally did.

However, this afternoon at the airport, seeing that Liu Manqiong seemed very disappointed in him, Ye Chen did not know how to explain it to her. After all, whether she was willing to listen to his explanation was still an unknown.

Plus, he was about to return to the United States soon, so Ye Chen had some thoughts of giving up.

He felt that since the wood was already carved into a boat, he would just let things be. Although he did not tell Liu Manqiong the truth, he ultimately showed mercy to Liu Jiahui for Liu Manqiong's sake.

It was just that when he arrived at this snack street again just now, Ye Chen could not help but think of Liu Manqiong.

Thinking of her, Ye Chen felt a bit of a sense of loss.

This feeling was somewhat similar to the mood when he saw Nanako injured by Qin Aoxue and urgently taken back to Japan for treatment.

Although Ye Chen was not a kind person with overflowing saintly heart, he was definitely not a great evil person. If there was a grudge, he would definitely repay it; if there was a favor, he would definitely return it; if there was guilt, if he could not explain it clearly, he would always find it hard to let go in his heart.

While his mind was wandering, Liu Manqiong had already arrived. Ye Chen's heart was beating a bit, and Liu Manqiong's heart was even more nervous.

In fact, she did not know that Fei Kexin had also invited Ye Chen tonight.

Because what Fei Kexin told her on the phone was that Ye Chen had something urgent, so she happened to be alone, so she simply invited Liu Manqiong to dinner together.

Moreover, she learned from the conversation between Ye Chen and Liu Jiahui this afternoon that Liu Manqiong had a snack street of her own, so she used the excuse of wanting to taste local Hong Kong specialties to naturally guide Liu Manqiong to set the dining place here.

What Liu Manqiong did not expect was that Ye Chen was also here.

This made her heart flutter like a rabbit.

Although she resented Ye Chen for not telling her the truth and also resented Ye Chen for being too iron-fisted toward her father, she had him in her heart after all, so she had been thinking about Ye Chen almost every moment since she got home.

She was also worried that if she could not clear up this matter with Ye Chen, then after Ye Chen left Hong Kong, the two might not have any more intersections.

That was why she took the initiative to contact Fei Kexin, wanting to invite Fei Kexin out for a meal together. On one hand, she wanted to understand Ye Chen as a person, and on the other hand, she wanted to take the opportunity to buffer her own mindset. After her mindset eased, she would take the initiative to find Ye Chen and clear things up.

But suddenly seeing Ye Chen here, she became reserved again, not knowing how to break the awkward atmosphere between her and Ye Chen.

In the end, it still had to be Fei Kexin, this smart woman, to solve the problem.

She was too lazy to explain to the two why the other appeared here, just smiled casually: "Miss Liu and Mr. Ye really have a tacit understanding. You two actually chose this place. Could it be that you discussed it in advance?"

With one sentence, not only did she cast aside the fact that she had set up the meeting behind their backs, but she also instantly eased the awkwardness between the two.

Ye Chen smiled at this time and said: "I had already made an appointment with Miss Liu to eat here tonight."

Liu Manqiong sat down opposite Ye Chen, looked at Ye Chen, and asked faintly: "Not calling me Miss Manqiong, but changing to Miss Liu?"

Ye Chen smiled awkwardly: "Said wrong, said wrong, it's Miss Manqiong."

Liu Manqiong's eyebrows seemed to relax a lot. Then she put her bag aside, looked at Ye Chen, and asked: "Since we had an appointment, why did you stand me up?"

Ye Chen hurriedly said: "Isn't this already sitting here?"

Liu Manqiong said: "You sitting here is not to keep my appointment, but to keep Miss Fei's appointment."

Seeing that Ye Chen did not know how to answer for a moment, Fei Kexin suddenly said: "Oh, by the way, I have a short conference call. You two chat first, and order some food by the way. I'll find a quiet place to make a call."

As she spoke, she stood up and walked away.

Neither Ye Chen nor Liu Manqiong expected Fei Kexin to leave so decisively.

However, since Fei Kexin was not around, Ye Chen looked at Liu Manqiong and said very sincerely: "Miss Manqiong, I'm really sorry about today's events. The reason I stood you up tonight was mainly because I didn't know how to face you."

Liu Manqiong said: "So you were aiming to teach my dad a lesson from the beginning, right?"

"Yes." Ye Chen nodded and said frankly: "I heard that Uncle Zhong was going to be deported back, and your dad was determined to take his life, so I came to Hong Kong one step ahead of him."

Liu Manqiong asked again: "Because Yisu Shipping is your enterprise, and my dad happened to want to cooperate with Yisu Shipping, so you used this opportunity to approach us, right?"

"That's right." Ye Chen said: "My original intention was to approach your dad first, but not let him know my true purpose. After Uncle Zhong was deported back, I would take advantage of his most arrogant moment to settle the new and old accounts with him together."

Liu Manqiong looked at him and asked with a very serious expression: "Then what about me? Was I originally in your plan?"

"No." Ye Chen shook his head: "Before I came, I only saw you in the Liu family's information, but I didn't include you in my plan. I only targeted your dad this time I came to Hong Kong."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added sincerely: "However, for Uncle Zhong's safety, and also to teach your dad a more thorough lesson, I never made my intentions clear to you. I am indeed very sorry about this."

Liu Manqiong pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Actually... actually, you told me that you came to uphold justice... this can be considered as giving me a preventive shot in advance. It's my own lack of understanding, so I don't blame you."

As she spoke, Liu Manqiong lowered her head and whispered: "And to be realistic, regarding Uncle Zhong's matter, and your father's matter, it was indeed my father who was wrong first... And, regardless of what happened between him and Uncle Zhong, and my stepmother in the past, he shouldn't have had the intention to kill others because of such things. You taught him a lesson for Uncle Zhong and your father, I have no right to blame you..." ===== CHAPTER 2261 =====

As she spoke, Liu Manqiong lowered her head and said in a low voice, "And to be honest, regarding Uncle Zhong's matter, as well as your father's matter, it was indeed my father who was in the wrong first... Moreover, regardless of what exactly happened in the past between him, Uncle Zhong, and my stepmother, he should not have harbored murderous intent toward others over such matters. You taught him a lesson for Uncle Zhong and your father; I have no right to blame you..."
