Lu Ying took Fang Xi’s hand and slid a jade bracelet onto her wrist. Fang Xi was shocked and immediately said, “Auntie, I can’t have this! It’s too much—”

Lu Ying only held her hand and admired the bracelet before patting Fang Xi, stating, “It looks great on you! Wear it; I’ve prepared two of these—one for you and the other for Ye Tang’s future wife. Jewelry is meant to be worn and complement us, no matter how expensive. What matters is whether we like it or not, not its price.”

Fang Xi couldn’t help but nod in agreement. She’d seen and handled countless pieces of clothing and jewelry, and her point of view was very much in line with Lu Ying’s.

Fang Xi touched the bracelet on her wrist, feeling slightly uneasy. “Auntie, I thought what I did today would disgust you.”New chapters are publɪshed on Noᴠelꜰire.nᴇt

Lu Ying smiled at her. “Why did you do something so extreme if you’re afraid

I’ll be disgusted?”

Fang Xi looked up at Lu Ying and calmly replied, “I’m really not someone who can turn the other cheek and suffer in silence. Perhaps I’m not a suitable candidate to be a wealthy family’s daughter-in-law. However, I won’t give up my dignity for love. That’s why I still chose to speak up for myself before Lin

Yu and Xi Cheng. As for whether the Ye family can accept me, that comes after.”

She continued, “I will clarify my feelings for Ye Kun to you and Ye Tang, and I will also respect Ye Kun’s choice. I won’t make him choose between me and his family. I will make things as painless as possible for Ye Kun if we must break things off because he truly loves me.”

Lu Ying looked at Fang Xi’s sincere face, and her smile faded. “So, what you mean is that you were prepared to ask for forgiveness from Ye Tang and me from the get-go?”

Fang Xi nodded lightly. “This is who I am; I don’t want to pretend to be someone I’m not because I don’t have the energy to keep up the pretense, so I

might as well be honest with you. Even if the outcome isn’t good, I’ll have at least done right by myself.”

Lu Ying laughed, and Fang Xi was a little dumbfounded. Lu Ying told Fang Xi seriously when she was done laughing, “You did the right thing. You have to do right by yourself first to have the energy to do right by others. I despise those who constantly go on about contribution and sacrifice as if everyone around them owes them something; people like that are actually the greediest. Ye Kun didn’t make the wrong choice in loving you, Fang Xi. Our Ye family’s daughter-in-law should be someone who can achieve great things like you!”

Fang Xi was slightly overwhelmed by the unexpected goodwill she received from her future mother-in-law. Later, Ye Kun was pushing Fang Xi’s wheelchair up the neighborhood’s path, listening to her talk about the conversation she had with his mother, and he couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Fang Xi raise her hand with the bracelet to the night sky in joy and amazement.

“My father passed away very suddenly from an illness when I was young. My brother had just come of age and wasn’t strong enough to take on responsibility for the family company, and I was still a snot-nosed kid back then. My mother was the one who supported and pushed my brother into the top seat against all opposition. She just about paved the way for us two brothers with a kitchen knife,” Ye Kun remarked.

“My brother and my mother have had it tough. We’ve seen too much of the world’s fickleness. That’s why we never care about public opinions or reputations. It’s exhausting to live for others. The most important thing in life is to be happy. Only those who are whole and fulfilled are qualified to love and properly care for those around them. It may seem selfish and heartless, but how can you be truly tolerant if you are harsh even to yourself?”

Ye Kun’s gentle and serene voice made Fang Xi feel at ease. She reached out and took Ye Kun’s hand, saying, “I’ve never thought to get security from others, but you make me feel that I’m not alone anymore, Ye Kun.”

Yun Nan and Shi Nian fought over the binoculars up inside the building. Yun

Nan jumped up, reaching for the binoculars in Shi Nian’s hands as she said, “Come on, let me see! Why aren’t they coming up yet?”

Shi Nian had seen enough, so he handed the binoculars to Yun Nan before turning around with his back facing the outside and sighing, “I really didn’t expect things to turn out like this. *Sigh!*”

Yun Nan retorted, “Are you feeling sorry for Xi Cheng? No one forced him; he chose this path himself. I don’t pity him at all!”

Shi Nian could only sigh. He finally understood the old saying, ‘ There must be hateful deeds behind everypitiful man.’ Xi Cheng had gone too far, and there was nothing anyone could do. Shi Nian could only wish his friend luck.

Yun Nan lifted her binoculars, looked out, and coincidentally saw Ye Kun lean over and kiss Fang Xi. She was so shocked that she quickly put down the binoculars and muttered, “Ugh! Talk about seeing no evil! Seriously, those two should get a room. Stop with the PDA! You should wait until you get home to make out, guys!”

Shi Nian laughed.. “Did you see something inappropriate? Let me see!”
