Chapter: 6254

Ye Chen asked again, "Dad, what's the point of all this? Thirty years ago is just water under the bridge. It won't interfere with others' relationships either."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added, "Dad, people should look to the future, Aunt Han was in love with you thirty years ago, but that doesn't mean she has to be now. She can love whoever she wants, and you can't force her."

"My..." Xiao Changkun argued stubbornly, "When Aunt Han first returned from abroad, you also went to pick her up with me. Can't you see how much affection she had for me back then?"

Ye Chen nodded, saying, "I can see it."

After that, his tone changed and he raised an eyebrow, saying, "But that's in the past already."

As he spoke again, Ye Chen said, "There's a joke I don't know if you've heard. It's about someone who gives five dollars every day to beggars at their doorstep. After a while, the beggars think it's only natural for them to receive five dollars from that person every day. One day that person didn't give him any money and he got upset and stopped him, asking why he wasn't giving him any money. The man had to say that he was buying gifts for his wife with the money. The beggar was furious and asked, 'You're using my money to buy gifts for your wife? Why should you use my money?'"

When he finished speaking, Ye Chen paused slightly and then said, "So you see, Aunt Han loved you for thirty years, but that's her own business. Her love can be yours too, but it doesn't mean she has to give it to you. When she decides to give it to someone else one day, you have no right to intervene or even ask questions."

After feeling ashamed, Shao Changkun asked in a flustered tone: "Ye Chen, don't you think I'm not worthy of Han Meiqing?"

Ye Chen shrugged and said with a hint of resignation: "No, Dad, I'll tell you honestly. You shouldn't be worrying about whether or not you're worthy of Aunt Han right now, since she's getting married to Professor He soon. Even if you are worthy, she won't choose you, so what can you do?"

Shao Changkun asked hastily: "So your meaning is that I should try to get her back before the wedding is over?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said with a sigh: "It's too late for that now. You should be worrying about what will happen if Mother finds out that Aunt Han is getting married. According to my knowledge, Aunt Han is coming home soon, but you haven't told Mother yet. If she finds out that Aunt Han is getting married, and she's going back to her alma mater, which is even more complicated since you two have had many interactions together... including studying abroad in South Korea... your good times are about to come to an end!"

"Ah!" Shao Changkun exclaimed when he heard Ye Chen's words.

Shao Changkun was shocked and asked nervously: "Ye Chen, do you think Aunt Han will invite me directly to her home to send out the wedding invitations? If Mother finds out that you've been hiding this from her for so long, she'll surely give me a hard time!"

Ye Chen smiled wryly and said: "I don't know if they'll invite you. But if you're afraid, you can just tell Aunt Han not to invite you to the wedding. Say you don't want to go."

Shao Changkun sighed and said, "This is just a stalling tactic. Even if I don't know this time, who knows when they'll hear about it in the future? Actually, many of our classmates already knew that Aunt Han was back in the country. At that time, we all went to the gathering you attended, but there wasn't much interaction or connection with Ma Er'an, so he didn't know."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Aunt Han's return date is quite sensitive. If I'm not mistaken, she returned at a time when my mom was getting scammed and lost her way, those few days."

Ma Er'an had stolen Ye Chen's bank card and transferred all the money to his own account, then got locked up in prison and suffered greatly.

However, Ma Er'an didn't dare tell anyone about what happened back then, so he just made excuses and covered it up.

At that time, Ma Er'an was suffering humiliation and torture in prison when Aunt Han just returned. Shao Changkun was thrilled at the time, with his biggest dream being to make Ma Er'an disappear completely.

If Ma Er'an knew that Aunt Han had returned during those times when Shao Changkun didn't even bother finding him but went to personally receive Aunt Han and invite her over for dinner, he would probably have a major conflict with Shao Changkun.

Ye Chen reminded Shao Changkun like this because she wanted him to wake up early. Since they couldn't shake off Ma Er'an, they shouldn't bother others anymore, or else they would be searching for death and finding it every day.

But Ye Chen didn't dare tell Ma Er'an or Shao Churan about this, so he had to find someone to vent to - Ye Chen himself was too lazy to play the role of his confidant.

Sure enough.

As soon as Ye Chen mentioned this, Shao Changkun's heart was filled with shock and panic. He quickly asked Ye Chen, "What will we do about this? That woman Ma Er'an is a neurotic. If she finds out about these things, her heart will be overflowing with anger. She might just sneak into my room one night and stab me to death! You know how that woman was when she was seeking revenge - no one was spared from getting scammed or killed!"

Ye Chen opened his mouth and said, "I'm also at a loss for what to do. If mom doesn't receive any news, it's okay. But if she receives rumors, I can only try to reason with her when she's about to take action." JrNovels.com
