C578 Battle of Wits and Courage
Chen Huayue hurriedly looked at her and whispered, "You actually came so quickly? What should I say?"
"Mom, I have already given you what should be said yesterday. You must not let it slip. Don't forget that you used to be an experienced person." Chu Yaruo reminded.
"I used to lie to men. This time, I lied to a woman, and a smart woman."
"It's the same. Isn't it all in our palms?" Chu Yaruo patted Chen Huayue's shoulder and walked to the door.
Ye Huiqian opened the door and Ye Huiqian and Min Huaicheng stood outside with gifts in their hands. Chu Yaruo immediately revealed a surprised expression.
"Director Ye, Director Min, why are you guys here?"
"Yaruo, can we have a good talk again?" Ye Huiqian pleaded.
Chu Yaruo looked troubled. She struggled at the door for a while before opening it. "My mother is here. Please don't say anything that will make her sad, okay? I asked her about some things yesterday, but she still hasn't recovered yet."
"Okay. Don't worry. We are here to solve this problem." Ye Huiqian nodded vigorously.
"Please come in." Chu Yaruo made an inviting gesture.
Ye Huiqian immediately walked in. When Min Huaicheng walked past Chu Yaruo, he looked up and down and stared at Chu Yaruo for a long time.
"Director Min, what happened to you?" Chu Yaruo's heart skipped a beat. She clearly reminded herself not to be afraid, but she was still afraid under Min Huaicheng's gaze.
"Miss Chu woke up really early. She seems to have put on makeup. Today is the weekend. Is there a date this early?"
"I, I... I originally wanted to accompany my mother to relax." Chu Yaruo quickly found an excuse.
Min Huaicheng looked at Chen Huayue. Her clothes were messy and her face was haggard. She looked like she did not sleep well. Chu Yaruo, on the other hand, was bright and beautiful. Instead, she seemed to think that someone would come to her house today.
Min Huaicheng did not point it out and said faintly. " Yeah. "
Chu Yaruo finally let out a sigh of relief.
The four of them sat on the sofa. Chu Yaruo kept hugging Chen Huayue and her eyes also turned red.
Ye Huiqian waited for a while before saying, "Yaruo, I'm sorry. I let you suffer such a huge shock yesterday. But I also have no other choice. I have been looking for you for so long. But there is no news. I can't think of anything. I can only hate myself. This time, I really can't lose you."
"Director Ye, don't be agitated." Chu Yaruo consoled.
Seeing this, Chen Huayue asked back, "What do you mean by this? You want to snatch my daughter? Is it that easy for me to raise her? You said you want her and you want her? You live well overseas. Do you know how we live?"
"Madam, I know it's hard for you to accept it, but please forgive me. I only have one daughter in this world. I'll agree to any amount of money you want." Ye Huiqian said bluntly.
Chen Huayue looked at Chu Yaruo and did not expect that Chu Yaruo really guessed correctly. Ye Huiqian would definitely give her money but they had already discussed it beforehand. There was a number of money and it was not worth as much as status. He had to put up the shelf.
"No way! I won't sell my daughter!"
"Madam, I..." Ye Huiqian looked at Min Huaicheng, who was beside her, with a difficult expression.
Min Huaicheng asked, "Why don't you listen to the child's decision? Miss Chu, what will you choose?"
Chu Yaruo did not expect Min Huaicheng to ask such a sharp question. She twisted her skirt and cried for a long time. Finally, she looked at Ye Huiqian and shook her head.
" Director Ye, I know you did not deliberately abandon me, but I am sorry. I cannot abandon my mother who raised me. I cannot let her stay here alone. "
"Yaruo, you are really mother's good daughter." Chen Huayue was touched as she hugged Chu Yaruo.
Ye Huiqian saw this scene and felt that it was Chen Huayue's credit that her daughter could be raised so well. If she were to forcefully strip the mother and daughter away, it would be too cruel.
Ye Huiqian comforted, "I know that it is also very difficult to abandon the relationship between mother and daughter but I also want to fulfill the responsibility of a mother. Since you guys are not willing to separate, why not let me take care of the two of you together?"
Chen Huayue wiped her tears and did not understand, "Director Ye, what do you mean by this?"
"Yaruo, I know that this is the place you rented. I just happened to settle a few properties here and I chose a place that is convenient for your mother to live there. I will find a maid to take care of your mother so that you can go there often. Isn't it good for you to have another mother? "
"Yaruo, you have always kept the hairpin that I gave you. Actually, you also find me very much in your heart, right?"
Ye Huiqian tried to persuade Chu Yaruo with tearful eyes and a hoarse voice.
Chu Yaruo immediately had tears streaming down her face as she looked at Ye Huiqian with a look of desire.
Ye Huiqian knew that Chu Yaruo had wavered and she immediately got up and grabbed Chu Yaruo's hand, "Yaruo, promise me that you will give me a chance, okay?"
"I..." Just as Chu Yaruo was about to speak, she looked at Min Huaicheng hesitantly.
Min Huaicheng frowned slightly. He could sense that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Chu Yaruo stared at him and shook her head the next moment.
"Not good. This is unfair to Director Min and Miss. I know Director Min doesn't like me. I don't want to ruin your current peace. Actually, it is already very good to know that everyone is safe and sound." Chu Yaruo spoke reasonably.
Ye Huiqian heard it, but her heart ached even more. She turned around to look at Min Huaicheng as if she was asking for his permission.
Min Huaicheng nodded. "How could I not be happy? I welcome you very much, Miss Chu."
"Really?" Chu Yaruo asked carefully.
"Yes." Min Huaicheng said solemnly, "We will announce your background in front of everyone so that no one will misunderstand Huiqian. We will also explain everything that has happened for so many years. We will let everyone know that she did not leave you behind on purpose."
"No!" Chu Yaruo said firmly.
Min Huaicheng said in a deep voice, "What's wrong? Is there a problem? This is good for you too."
Chu Yaruo was being stared at by Ye Huiqian. She slightly lowered her eyes. Sure enough, she did not guess wrongly. Min Huaicheng did not trust her at all. Even now, Ye Huiqian had no choice but to acknowledge her. Min Huaicheng still thought of ways to expose her.
If she openly acknowledged relatives, then wouldn't her lie be broken by herself? Min Huaicheng definitely wanted to use this method to make her expose herself, or people who knew about it to expose her.
At that time, no matter how foolish Shen Xining was, it was impossible for her to not know that Ye Huiqian was her dead mother.
No, she definitely would not let this kind of thing happen.
After Chu Yaruo thought it through, she walked in front of Ye Huiqian, "Director Ye, this will only make you embarrassed and also make my mother and I embarrassed. If it was just for the sake of reuniting, there was no need to show off these things. I just want everyone to sit together and have a meal peacefully. I don't care about anything else."
" Yaruo, this is too unfair to you. "
"Not mistreated. This is enough. I can't let my mother feel like she is losing me." Chu Yaruo explained seriously.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, but at least let others know that you're my daughter, right?"
"This..."
Chu Yaruo rolled her eyes.
