Ye Tingjun calmly said to Fang Lanlan, "This is not an impulsive act. An impulsive act is not the same as hiring someone to injure someone. The law is just, and we will make sure you receive the punishment you deserve."
Fang Lanlan looked at Ye Tingjun pleadingly: "Dad, I was really wrong. I only listened to my friend. I really didn't have that much thought in mind. I was really wrong. Dad, please forgive me this time. I promise I will be obedient from now on and I won't interfere with Xiao Fan's return home."
Ye Tingjun sneered: "You're interfering with my son's return home? How ridiculous! Does my son's return home depend on your mood? I was truly blind before. Fang Lanlan, let me tell you, don't even think about having anything to do with our family anymore. I'll consider it raising an ungrateful wretch. From now on, we'll have nothing to do with each other. I'll have your things returned to the Fang family."
Fang Lanlan looked at Xiao He unwillingly: "Mom, you love me the most. Please beg Dad for me. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I promise I will never get married and will serve you and Dad like a slave, okay?"
Xiao He sighed, "Fang Lanlan, I really want to know why. I've been so good to you, why aren't you satisfied? Why do you still want to hurt us? Why are you so cruel?"
Fang Lanlan realized there was no room for compromise. She looked coldly at Xiao He: "Why is fate so unfair? Why wasn't I your biological daughter? Why did I have to enjoy a princess-like life, only to end up as that extra child born into the Fang family? I'm not reconciled!"
At this point, Fang Lanlan clenched her fists and continued, "Ye Yifan is slowly starting to take back his position, and then I'm going to lose everything. Ye Yifan used to be unambitious, but after meeting Hua Kai, he changed. He's not the same as before. It was all Hua Kai's doing. I only had two more years until I got married, and everything would have been fine, but she had to appear at this time to cut off my path to survival. I hate it! I want to make them suffer. I want to vent my anger."
Xiao He looked coldly at Fang Lanlan: "I always thought you were sensible, that you didn't argue with Xiao Fan, and that Xiao Fan was being unreasonable. Now I know how wrong I was."
Fang Lanlan sat there, her hands behind her head: "But I have indeed been a good daughter. For so many years, I have tried my best to coax you and make you happy, but in the end, we are not blood relatives, and you still have your suspicions about me."
Xiao He looked at Fang Lanlan with a bitter smile and asked, "I was careful? What was I careful about? Because of you, my own son has never been able to return to the place he should have been. Haven't I been good enough to you?"
Fang Lanlan raised her hands: "These handcuffs are your way of being kind to me? You know it's me, so why are you still suing me? You can drop the charges, you can say it's a joke, but do you know what these handcuffs represent? If I go to jail, my life will be ruined."
Xiao He was becoming increasingly clear-headed: "What if those people hurt Xiao Fan and Xiao Zhou? What if they become disabled? Have you thought about them?"
Fang Lanlan said, "But they're all fine, so why can't you give me a way out?"
Xiao He laughed, annoyed by Fang Lanlan's self-righteousness: "Fang Lanlan, do you know how many people you hired? Eight. If Hua Kai hadn't also known kung fu, do you think they wouldn't have gotten hurt? No, they did get hurt. Xiao Fan got injured. If Hua Kai hadn't known kung fu, I really don't know what would have happened yesterday."
Fang Lanlan continued, "In the end, nothing really happened. Since they're not in any serious trouble, Mom, please let me go for the sake of our mother-daughter relationship. If I go to jail, my life will be ruined. Please take pity on me and give me a chance."
Looking at Fang Lanlan, who showed no remorse whatsoever, Xiao He felt a pang of despair: "This is beyond my control. Just listen to the police station. I have nothing more to say to you." With that, she walked out.
Fang Lanlan shouted from behind, "Mom, don't go! I was wrong. I misspoke just now. I was just talking nonsense. I was really scared. Mom, come back and listen to me."
She was filled with regret. Why had she said those things? Why hadn't she controlled her emotions? Why had she said so many things she shouldn't have in her excitement? What was she going to do now?
Seeing that Xiao He didn't turn around, she started calling Ye Tingjun again, but Ye Tingjun didn't stop either and went out with Xiao He.
Xiao He returned to the conference room and, upon seeing Ye Yifan, immediately hugged him, crying, "Xiao Fan, Mom was wrong, Mom knows she was wrong."
She finally understood the suffering Ye Yifan had endured all these years, and she truly regretted it.
Ye Yifan's heart was filled with complicated feelings. Saying "forgive" was not something that could be done with just a word, but her mother's embrace was indeed very warm.
Ye Jianxiao looked at Ye Yifan and wiped away his tears. At least the maternal love he had been waiting for had finally arrived, even if it came a little late.
At this moment, a policeman came out and said that Fang Lanlan wanted to see Hua Kai, but she only saw Hua Kai alone.
Ye Yifan looked at Hua Kai and asked, "Do you want to see her?"
Hua Kai thought for a moment and said, "Since she wants to see me, let's see her and see what she has to say."
Ye Yifan then said, "Then I'll go with you."
Hua Kai said, "Didn't she say she wanted to see me by myself? Then I'll go see what she has to say myself."
Ye Yifan wanted to speak, but Ye Jianxiao said to him, "Let Kaikai go and listen. If we don't go, we'll have to guess what she's trying to say. Fang Lanlan is no match for Kaikai. Let Kaikai go, don't worry."
Ye Yifan smiled as he listened to his grandfather's words: "I'm not really worried about Kaikai, I'm just afraid that hearing this will affect my mood."
Hua Kai smiled and said, "If it affects anyone, it will affect her mood. You think you can affect me? Not so easy." After saying that, she followed the policeman to see Fang Lanlan.
Fang Lanlan was still in the same spot. When she saw Hua Kai, she was very excited: "Hua Kai, why? Why did you go to Ye Yifan's side? Why did you let him deal with me?"
Hua Kai sat down opposite Fang Lanlan and said with a smile, "Do I need to ask you for permission to know Ye Yifan? You're clearly in the wrong, so why won't you let him fight back? Does Ye Yifan have to keep being bullied by you?"
“You’re not me, how would you know my suffering? I was switched at birth when I was little, and I’ve never been with my biological parents. I was only thirteen when I found out my surname was Fang. I was really scared then. I didn’t know what the Fang family was like, and I didn’t know if my adoptive parents would abandon me. What if they didn’t want me? Do you understand the pain and helplessness I felt? I could only choose a place that was more suitable for me and do everything I could to live a quality life. What did I do wrong?” Fang Lanlan said confidently.
Hua Kai couldn't stand it anymore: "Fang Lanlan, you think you're suffering, but what about Ye Yifan? Your biological parents knew he wasn't their biological son when he was three. Can you imagine what she's been through all these years? He finally found his biological parents, but because of your interference, he hasn't received maternal love. Don't you think he's pitiful? And a large part of his pity is because of you. If you're suffering, you should have empathy and understand Ye Yifan. But what about you? Do you even deserve to be called a human being?"
