The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

Hua Ye felt his eyes go dark, as if the whole sky was about to collapse, and an expression of extreme fear appeared on his face.

Her legs, which had become numb from kneeling for a long time, tried their best to stand up, but due to excessive tension and weakness, she fell heavily to the ground with a dull sound as soon as she stood up.

Hua Ye thought about it and couldn't help but start to complain: "General Hua, you are a man who has been through hundreds of battles and has seen countless experiences. How could you lose your composure like this? Even if your daughter married an extraordinary person, you wouldn't be so scared that you fainted, right?"

Before she could finish her words, she heard General Hua roaring in anger: "You disobedient and unfilial girl! You still have the nerve to quibble here! Tell us, what kind of person did you marry?"

At this moment, Mrs. Hua, who had been pretending to be asleep, suddenly woke up. She frantically pinched her own philtrum, muttering, "Oh my, what a sin! How could my precious daughter be so confused?"

Facing his parents' accusations and questions, Hua Ye appeared extremely firm.

She raised her chin and said without flinching, "Anyway, I've already married him. You all agreed to it. Now it's done, it's too late to regret! Besides, he and I have already gone through the Zhougong ceremony and become real husband and wife. No matter what, I will never separate from him!"

Xu Zhi, who was standing aside, listened quietly to Hua Ye's decisive words.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, outlining a deeper arc. It was a smile of relief that came from the bottom of his heart.

General Hua was so angry that his hands shook and he scolded, "Since he is the son-in-law of my Hua family, what's wrong with him kneeling to your father?"

"Dad, why are you so stubborn? Kneeling won't change anything. Besides, he's been very good to me. There's no need to prove anything!"

Hua Ye grabbed Xu Zhi's sleeve tightly and used the force to slowly stand up.

Her eyes were wide open and she glared at her father fiercely, her eyes full of dissatisfaction and resentment.

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to kneel, then don't kneel! I can see that this guy really cares about you. He even dares to offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for you. From this point of view alone, he is much better than that Zuo Nian. So, my girl, don't always think about other men!"

While General Hua spoke earnestly, he raised his slightly rough right hands, gently supported his forehead on both sides, and then slowly kneaded them, as if trying to relieve the irritability in his heart at the moment.

It seemed that he didn't want to continue to dwell on this matter and dig into it.

Hearing his father say this, Hua Ye couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

She forced a smile and muttered, "I didn't, it's just that when I saw Zuo Nian, I couldn't help myself..."

In fact, only she herself knows that the feelings for Zuo Nian deep in her heart are always hard to let go.

After all, they had spent a long time together, supporting each other and accompanying each other silently.

How could the moments we'd shared be erased so easily? Furthermore, we'd been together for decades...

At this moment, Xu Zhi, who had been silent all the time, suddenly leaned down slightly, put his lips close to Hua Ye's ear, and spoke softly.

"Yer, to be honest, I don't care about your past at all. But if you still cling to that old relationship, maybe one day I will..."

As he spoke, Xu Zhi grabbed Hua Ye's delicate and slender little hand and squeezed it tightly, as if he wanted to make her feel his affection and jealousy in this way.

"Xuzhi, no matter who you are, now that you have married my Ye'er, you must not let her suffer even the slightest injustice!"

General Hua suddenly stood up. Although he was over fifty years old, his strong and vigorous body still looked exceptionally tall and straight, standing like a vigorous pine tree.

Although he was more than ten centimeters shorter than Xu Zhi in terms of stature, the powerful aura he exuded was not at all inferior.

At this moment, Xuzhi looked at the upright father-in-law in front of him who loved his daughter deeply. He felt his tough attitude and the little hand that was tightly held in his hand and was slightly sweating due to excessive nervousness.

He couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart, and subconsciously restrained the cold aura that he had originally exuded, and spoke slowly.

"Please rest assured, my father-in-law. Ye'er is the only partner I have chosen since I was born. To me, she is not only the whole meaning of life, but also the one who will accompany me for all eternity, forever inseparable."

After saying that, he looked at Ye'er beside him affectionately, his eyes full of tenderness and determination.

Seeing that his attitude was gentle and upright, Mrs. Hua nodded secretly and thought to herself: What's more, her own daughter is reluctant to let him suffer any humiliation. She is really afraid of him and really loves him.

When Mrs. Hua came to her senses, she saw that her husband was in a stalemate with her, so she started to tell her story in an attempt to break the deadlock.

"With what you said, it doesn't matter what kind of person you are. The most important thing is that Ye'er likes you!"

"Dad, you're done! Whether he's a human, a demon, or a monster, I'm happy to like him. What's more, he's never let me suffer the slightest injustice and has always responded to my every request..."

Hua Ye inserted himself between them, creating a safe distance between them, and spoke very seriously.

But her hands were always tightly clasped on Xuzhi's big hands, and she was reluctant to let go. Today she deeply felt Xuzhi's undisguised love.

It's not the kind of love that wants to control, but a way of loving that respects other people's ideas.

"You two should go home and recuperate for a while before coming back. You two have lost a lot of weight, and it makes me upset just looking at you!"

Seeing the natural love between the two of them, Mrs. Hua quickly ordered them to leave, creating time and space for them to be alone so that their relationship could grow stronger.

She pulled General Hua over and sat him down, carefully advising him: "Girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up, and sons cannot be controlled by their mothers when they grow up. Please don't worry so much!"

Hua Ye really couldn't stand his father's capricious personality. When he heard his mother driving them away, she pulled Xu Zhi and walked out of the house.

"Dad, next time I bring my son-in-law to see you, I'll bring you some rare things. I will never forget you!"

Hua Ye quickened her pace as she spoke, fearing that her father would keep her.
