291 Free Transfer
The three of them sat facing each other. Mrs. Liu was silent, but she suddenly got up and tried to kneel down in front of Ji Lingchen.
“Mrs. Liu, what are you doing?” Fang Xiaonuan cried out in shock and quickly went over to help her up.
There were a lot of people in the shop. When Mrs. Liu knelt down, many people looked over.
Mrs. Liu cried and begged Ji Lingchen, “CEO Ji, I’m begging you. Don’t take my daughter away.”
Ji Lingchen’s face was cold. If it wasn’t for the Liu family’s kindness to his sister, he would not have forgiven them for taking her.
“Madame, it was the Liu family who took my sister away for 15 years,” Ji Lingchen replied.
Mrs. Liu continued to cry. “CEO Ji, I don’t want Yanyu Corporation anymore. I’ll give it to you, okay? I just beg you not to take my daughter away.” After she finished speaking, she took out a company resale agreement from her bag. She had already drafted the contents of the agreement. The agreement said that she would transfer the company to the Ji Corporation for free.
“CEO Ji, I’ll give you the company. Could you let Xiaoyu stay with us? She’s my life. I can’t lose her!”
Fang Xiaonuan was affected by Mrs. Liu’s emotions and started to cry as well.
Back then, her parents would rather offend the Ji family than let her marry Ji Lingchen, whom they had never met before. This reminded her of strong parental love. Today, Mrs. Liu was willing to give the Yanyu Corporation she had founded to Ji Lingchen free of charge. This was also a sign of her love for Xiaoyu. Mrs. Liu really regarded Xiaoyu as more important than her own life. She was willing to give up everything for her.
Fang Xiaonuan pulled out a few tissues and sat down beside Mrs. Liu, helping her wipe her tears. “Mrs. Liu, Xiaoyu was lucky to meet you.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu started to beg Fang Xiaonuan again. “Xiaonuan, do you know how much I love Xiaoyu? Can you help me?”
“Mrs. Liu, I’m sorry. I can’t help you.” Fang Xiaonuan looked into Mrs. Liu’s eyes and said, “Mrs. Liu, you’re only looking at how much you and Mr. Liu have sacrificed for Xiaoyu. You two lived happily for 15 years, but you took away my husband’s right to have a happy family. My husband has been looking for her for 15 years, from 13 to 28. My mother-in-law fell sick from longing and passed away a long time ago. Do you know that my husband has been carrying this on his back for so many years? The endless guilt, self-blame, and remorse… The Ji family could’ve been as warm and harmonious as your family, but because Xiaoyu and my mother-in-law are no longer around, the Ji family fell apart.”
“My husband lost his mother, his home, and his sister when he was thirteen. Looking for his sister has kept him going all this time. You can’t just think about your own happiness and make my husband give up his family’s happiness. That’s not fair.”
Fang Xiaonuan wiped her tears dry and placed the contract back into Mrs. Liu’s bag. “Mrs. Liu, you see Xiaoyu as more important than your own life, but my husband is no different. Everyone in the Ji family is waiting for Xiaoyu to come home. She’s part of their family.”
“Can you understand how they feel? Mrs. Liu, my husband was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to accept it, so he had already given in and made sure you had a month to do so. He’s not a saint, so there’s no reason for him to always consider your feelings, right? Don’t force his hand. We, the Ji family, will never give up on Xiaoyu!”
She was talking on behalf the Ji family. This was enough to make her stance clear.
Mrs. Liu covered her face and cried. The originally elegant female CEO was now the most helpless woman.
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife, who would always support him, and felt touched. There were many things that he could not say, but his little wife, who understood him, said them for him. At this moment, his heart was completely full.
Fang Xiaonuan continued, “Mrs. Liu, Xiaoyu and I have been friends for many years. Our relationship is very strong. When I first found out about this, I was as worried as you were that Xiaoyu would lose her happy family. I even quarreled with my husband and lost my temper. At that time, I didn’t even think about my husband, nor did I think about the Ji family.”
“But the truth is that your family’s current happiness is built on the Ji family’s pain. There’s no reason for the Ji family to suffer in order to fulfill your happiness. Xiaoyu is already an adult, and she has the right to know about this. After knowing, everything will be up to her. If we really love her, we should respect her choice.”
Fang Xiaonuan had listened to her husband’s instructions. For the past month, she had held back and not told Liu Siyu. She had done so to give the Liu family time to accept the truth. She had not even told Xiaowen.
What the Liu family was most worried about was that Mrs. Liu would not be able to take it after she found out the truth. Now that she knew, there was no need to hide it anymore.
