Chapter 320: Tenacious and stubborn

Liang Xiao Dan looked surprised.

Yukito hesitated. “I know that you may not like us because of our parents, but we have really loved Nee-chan from the bottom of our hearts. And at such a difficult time, we don’t want to stay away from her.”

Yukira supported his brother. “Yes…Mrs. Liang. We won’t be a bother for you. We will even help in the household chores!”

They both stood nervous about her decision.

Liang Xiao Dan blinked her eyes as she looked at them dumbfounded. Then she chuckled and said, “Oh dear, you are welcomed to live here anytime. And we all like you very much.”

Yukira pursed his lips.

She smiled. “Even if you two are their sons and your parents have hurt Nana, but that doesn’t mean that you two are bad. Children must never suffer because of their parent’s mistakes. And Nana already told me how you two protected her that night, even if you were just five years old. I cannot thank you enough for that. You went against your father and then your mother throughout all these years. Standing at the side of justice takes courage, especially when it’s your family that is wrong. But you two always supported Nana, and I am proud of you two.”

The twins felt relieved that she didn’t hate them.

Liang Xiao Dan hugged them. “You both are my children as much as Nana and Shin. You don’t have to feel ashamed of yourselves. Even if you cannot erase your family’s past, you can write your own life by making the right decisions and choices. Then one day, you would be known by your own work and success. In fact, you can be the inspiration for those children who face such a similar situation as you. If you are parents are wrong, that doesn’t mean that the child will be bad. It is his choice what he makes, whether to follow his parent’s footsteps or do the right thing.”

They both nodded.

Liu Chunhua said, “Yes, dear. What she said is absolutely right. You both are overthinking about this.”

The twins awkwardly smiled.

“Good.” She laughed. “I am sure Zou and Shin will be just as thrilled.”

Nana said, “Sit here, you two.”

The twins obediently sat near her.

She raised her hands towards them and suddenly twisted their ears.

“Oww!!”

They both screamed in unison.

“Nee-chan!”

“What Nee-chan!?” She glared at them. “I am angry at you for saying such things. I have already told you before not to think of what happened in the past and just live in the present. But you two still…”

The twins immediately apologized. “Sorry, Nee-chan! We won’t talk like that from now on! Promise!”

Nana felt satisfied. But she hesitantly glanced at Yukito. “Yukito…are you sure? I mean about Jing…”

Liu Chunhua furrowed her brows. “Jing?”

Liang Xiao Dan looked confused. “Liu Jing? Why are you asking about him?”

Yukito quickly said, “its nothing! Actually, we have been quite good friends, so she was worried about us.”

Liang Xiao Dan was still suspicious but said nothing.

Yukito quickly brushed it off, but Nana understood it, so she dropped the subject for now.

Liu Chunhua looked downcast. “I know. Jing has also disappointed me a lot. He should have made Jinhai realize that he was doing it wrong but…I-I…”

Their actions terribly hurt her.

It was silence.

Nana smiled. “It’s okay, Mom. It’s not your fault.”

“I…, I will leave now. You take care. And if you need anything, then just call me, okay?”

She cried and nodded. She had grown quite close to Liu Chunhua too in these past months, so it was difficult to part with her and the family.

Outside, the atmosphere was too gloomy.

When Liu Chunhua came down with Liang Xiao Dan, Jinhai already rushed to her side.

“Mom, what did Nana say? Did you talk to her? Did she agree?”

Liu Chunhua stomped her foot. “Jinhai! Are you even in your senses? What are you thinking! Nana has told me the same thing. She wants to live separately, and I support her.”

Jinhai froze. “Mom!”

“What, mom! You still have the nerve to want her to come back to you!?

Jing didn’t see the twins either, and he felt like a nervous wreck.

“Mom…Yukito…I -I mean and Yukira too…”

“The twins have decided to live here with Nana too.”

Jing’s face turned pale. For the first time, he felt fear of losing someone. All this time, he rejected all those confessions of numerous girls buy today; he was shit scared of Yukito’s rejection.

L-live here…Is Yukito breaking up with me?

Liu Hai saw the state of his sons and felt guilty.

Shin said, “Now that you got your answer again, get the hell out of here.”

Jinhai squinted his gaze and quietly said, “I am not going anywhere. And Nana has herself said that I could stay here as long as I want.”

Liang Zou flared up. “You plan to stay outside like a sore thumb!?”

Jinhai laughed. “Yes, I will. You can just ignore me if you want, but as I already said before, I am where my Nana is.”

Liang Zou and Shin were stunned.

They had never seen someone so tenacious and stubborn.

Liu Hai tried his best to make him understand.

“Jinhai, please listen to me. You will not get anything by doing this.”

Jinhai said, “No, Dad. I have already decided. Nobody can stop me.”

“Liu Jinhai, you better not make the Liang family your enemy. Just because I wasn’t in Beijing for so long, don’t underestimate my influence.”

Jinhai smirked. “And don’t forget that all those years the Liu family was and is reigning in China. I am in every position to fight you.”

Liu Chunhua shouted. “Jinhai! Is this the way you talk to your father-in-law!”

“There is no right way for me when it comes to Nana. I want Nana back, and that is the only thing I know.”

Liang Zou sneered. “It’s alright, Liu Hai. If your son is, so hell-bent in suffering, then we welcome him. After all, no matter how much he suffers, it would never match up to what my daughter has endured.”

Liu Chunhua asked, “Liu Jinhai. I am telling you to come with me right now. Or else I will kick you out of the Liu family. I will neither allow you to return home, nor you can retain your CEO position.”

Liu Hai and Grandma Liu widened their eyes. Jing was shocked.

“Ch-Chunhua..you..”

“Mom..”

She raised her hand. “No, Mom and Hai. Jinhai has crossed all his limits, and I, as a woman, cannot condone his actions. I understand what Nana must be going through. I just saw how hurt and broken she looked. I am a woman first before anybody’s wife or mother. He has to pay the price and repent his actions. I love my sons, but I also love my daughter-in-law. I will not tolerate what Jinhai did.”

After how Huian had troubled them in the Liu villa, it was the first time when they saw Chunhua’s firm side.

She had stood just like that for Jinhai too, and now she was doing the same for Nana.

Jinhai smiled. “Okay, mom. If that is what you wish. Disown me from the Liu family. Disown me from the company. But I am not going anywhere.”

Liu Chunhua stared hard at him, and he equally gazed at her straight, letting her know his seriousness.

She turned to face Liang Zou and Xiao Dan. “This is Jinhai’s decision. From now on, he has nothing to do with the Liu family. So you are free to punish or treat him however you deem fit. We won’t interfere.”

They were all shocked by the turn of events.

“Mom, Hai, Jing. Let’s go.”

Grandma Liu was tired. “Chunhua. I understand your concern but-“

“No, mom. If this is what Jinhai wants, then let him bear it all.”

“Bro…” Jing rushed to him and said, “Bro come with us. We will surely think of something.”

Jinhai smiled. “it’s okay, Jing. Go. This is my fight to get Nana back. I will not back down.”

He hesitated.

Jing looked upstairs for any sign of Yukito, but there wasn’t even his shadow.

Liu Hai sighed. Jinhai was stubborn, just like him. Once he set his mind onto something, he won’t back down.

Shin yelled. “Guards! Take this man away. He is a nuisance!”

The guards immediately surrounded him, but Jinhai sent one cold glare at their way, and they froze at the place.

They couldn’t help but gulp. His aura and pressure was not something anybody could stand.

“I know the way. You don’t need me to escort out.”

Jinhai smiled. “Let’s see how long Nana can stop herself from coming to meet me.”

Jinhai glanced upstairs and narrowed his gaze as he saw something flutter.

“After all, she loves me so much. She is angry at me. But that doesn’t mean I’m not in her heart anymore.”

He glanced one last time at that shadow and turned and left the villa.

From the corner, Nana stood behind a pillar and heard everything.

She shut her eyes as a tear slid by.

No Jinhai. You are wrong. Do whatever you want, but I’m not going to forgive you. What you are expecting will never happen.
