The love story of a wealthy family amid anti-fraud storm at the border

At Ling Yue's home in Nancheng, Ling Yue was a little surprised when her adoptive father confessed to her for the first time.

"Yuer, stop what you want to investigate."

"What do I want to check?" Ling Yue moved his body with difficulty, hoping to lean against it so that he would feel more comfortable.

"Father Yuan, what do you know? You..."

Ling Yue wanted to ask Yuan Ye what role he played in the whole incident.

However, she didn't have the courage to ask because she was afraid that the truth would be too much for her to bear.

"Yuer, don't ask anymore, the truth is..."

Yuan Ye paused, took a deep breath and continued:

"The truth is, you have to believe in all the people who love you. What they do will not let you down."

"What kind of answer is this?"

Although Ling Yue remembered Yuan Ye's words in her heart, she was eager to know the hidden meaning of these words as soon as possible.

"Yuer, everyone has their own standards for judging justice and evil, and everyone has their own goals to pursue. Some things may seem complicated, but they actually have deeper meanings behind them."

Yuan Ye looked at Ling Yue deeply, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and expectation.

"Dad, I can't pretend that I know nothing. From childhood to adulthood, a series of inexplicable things have always happened around me. I don't want to be kept in the dark anymore." Ling Yue looked straight into Yuan Ye's eyes and said firmly.

Yuan Ye sighed softly and slowly sat down beside Ling Yue.

"Yuer, I know you've grown up and have your own judgment and pursuits. But there are some truths that you shouldn't know yet. Believe in your father, everything I do is for your own good, to protect you."

"You always say you're doing this for my own good, but do you know what I really want?"

Ling Yue was very excited at this moment.

"I just want a complete family where we can live happily together."

Yuan Ye fell silent. He had raised Ling Yue alone since she was a child. For her and for the woman he deeply loved, he did not get married.

Because he wanted to give all his love to Ling Yue, this was the only thing he could do for Yi Han (Ling Yue's mother).

When Yuan Ye heard what Ling Yue said, the expression on his face instantly became extremely painful.

"Yes, this is perhaps what I will never be able to do. Back then, I couldn't save your father and mother, and now I can't give you a complete family."

Ling Yue listened to what Yuan Ye said. She felt as if what she had just said had deeply hurt Yuan Ye.

"Dad, I...I can't bear everyone who loves me leaving me, you know?"

Ling Yue's words made Yuan Ye's eyes widen. He originally thought that as a medical worker and a special forces member, Ling Yue had long been indifferent to life and death.

Ling Yue continued, "Perhaps you think I've become indifferent to life and death. Today, I'm telling you that when it comes to family and love, everyone's life and death is very important to me."

"If you can't accept it, how can you have the courage to let an old man like me accept the death of the one I love?"

Yuan Ye could no longer suppress the sadness in his heart, and he blurted out.

"I still haven't gotten over your mother's passing. I work and perform surgeries day and night.

Even until the end, I treated every operation and every patient as your mother.

Every successful operation I performed saved her life.

Now, I only feel a little comfort when I see you.

How can I bear the consequences of you being in danger and losing you?"

Ling Yue had never heard Father Yuan talk too much about her mother, because she knew that was an untouchable part of his heart.

"Dad, tell me about you and mom..."

Ling Yue looked at Yuan Ye, his eyes filled with longing and sadness.

At this moment, she just couldn't believe that her adoptive father, who had raised her, would do something illegal.

"Your mother? She's very nice, a really nice woman."

Then, Yuan Ye told Ling Yue about his first encounter with Yi Han and his subsequent experiences with her and Ling Yi. However, he omitted the details of Yi Han and Ling Yi's thousand-year love. (Another fantasy novel I just finished: Searching for a Thousand-Year Love.)

"Yuer, no one can bear separation. However, everyone's definition of separation is different. We must learn to accept the impermanence of life and death. However, the best way to answer to yourself is to be true to your conscience."

Ling Yue was still immersed in the past experiences of her father, mother and Yuan's father.

Ling Yue was immersed in Yuan Ye's narration of the past, feeling mixed emotions.

She had never imagined that there was such a deep emotional bond between her parents and Yuan Ye.

"Dad, after hearing what you said, I seem to understand your feelings over the years better. But what does this have to do with what I'm investigating? Why haven't you allowed me to continue investigating?"

Ling Yue raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion and inquiry.

Yuan Ye pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Yuer, the forces involved in the matter you are investigating are complicated and far from as simple as you think."

"Dad, what do you know? Can't you just tell me?"

Yuan Ye recalled that year in the Bashan Valley, when he saw the two tokens in Yi Chen's hands, he made up his mind to stop the bond between the two.

Yuan Ye looked at the obsession in Ling Yue's heart and said calmly: "Yuer, it's the same old saying. You have to believe in everyone who loves you."

"So, what are you going to do? Every time you leave, you disappear for several months. What exactly are you doing? Also, did you take the things in my safe?"

Seeing Yuan Ye getting up to leave, Ling Yue asked the question she wanted to ask most in a hurry.

"This is the message Gu Chenxin left for you. He asked me to tell you to keep it well. When the time comes to open it, you will naturally know the truth of the whole matter."

Yuan Ye placed what he had said in front of Ling Yue.

"What do you mean? Explain clearly."

Ling Yue looked at the things in front of her, her face was confused.

"Yuer, you're not a child anymore, are you still so childish? You know, your biggest flaw is that you're too impatient and too stubborn. That's really bad, you should change that."

"I……"

"All the truth lies within. Don't try to interpret it prematurely. That will only backfire. Be obedient..."

After Yuan Ye finished speaking, he left without looking back.

Little did he know that everything that happened today would completely change Ling Yue's future life.
