The car slowly drove along the brightly lit street. Under the dreamlike lights, Ye Jia felt that she was immersed in a dream.

The news that she had just received echoed in her mind. For a time, there was no way to believe that all of this was real. Long Yingqi, who had known her for so long, was actually a fake? There was no one like Long Yingqi in this world?

Was that Long Yingqi who had been so good to him ever since she entered the Long Residence? How is this possible? Long Haochen hated her so much, so how could he treat her so well?

She suddenly recalled that Long Yingqi would mention the necklace to her almost every time they met. Was this his real purpose? From the very beginning, he had deceived her by pretending to be Long Yingqi in order to take out the necklace?

Suddenly, he felt that everything was fake, and his heart seemed to have lost something in an instant.

One wave had yet to calm down, the other wave had already begun. After hearing this news, should she be happy that Long Haochen didn't abandon her these past few days, or resentful of the fact that he had always deceived her? She knew she hated him a little more.

Ye Jia covered her mouth and cried out. Nangong Ye looked at her in the rear-view mirror and quickened her pace in the direction of her home. He quickly returned to the Nangong family and parked his car in the garden.

He then took off their safety belts and gently embraced her. He patted her back and comforted her, "Jiajia, I'm sorry. Perhaps I really shouldn't meddle in this. I made you cry, didn't I?"

Ye Jia shook her head in his arms, feeling so terrible that she couldn't speak. She should be the one thanking him, he was the one who let her know this fact, otherwise, how long would it take for her to be cheated by Long Haochen?

"Stop crying, alright?" Nangong Ye consoled her with a pained heart. Her eyes were already crying like walnuts. If she continued to cry, she would be blind. Seeing her tears, he was at a loss as to what to do.

"Elder Nan Gong … is what you said true? Was Long Yingqi really played by Long Haochen? Always? " Ye Jia choked on her sobs as she asked this series of questions. She really needed someone to give her a definite answer.

"It's true." Nangong Ye softly sighed and said in a low voice, "Long Yingqi never returned to the Long family ever since he was kidnapped by an outsider before he was 24 years old."

His gaze passed through the window and landed on a certain window. That was Madam Nangong's bedroom. The one who had kidnapped him was Madam Nangong. Actually, after he found out about the truth and Madam Nangong told him the truth, he had already forgiven everyone in the Long family.

When Madam Nangong knelt down in front of him and begged him not to leave the Nangong family behind, he could not bring himself to hate Madam Nangong no matter what. After all, Madam Nangong treated him better than his own son. Furthermore, Madam Nangong was already old and needed him to take care of such a large family business. Thus, he kept on pretending that he wouldn't forgive the Long family.

Just treat it as if Long Yingqi really wasn't here. Let's just let everything go back to the past. He was still Nangong Ye, the Nangong Family's ninth successor!

"Why did he do this to me …" Ye Jia started to cry even louder.

"That's what I'm angry about." Long Yingqi gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "He used his identity of Long Haoxuan to make love to Yi Chuan every day and cheated you of Long Yingqi's identity at the same time. I've never seen anyone more flowery than him in my life!"

"He lied to me because he wanted the baby in my stomach, right? In fact, what he really loves is Miss Mei-hui, right? " Ye Jia moved back a little and backed out of Nangong Ye's embrace, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Nangong Ye used her hands to wipe away the tears on her face and gently said, "I don't know what he wants to do. His thoughts — no one could have guessed it. Jiajia, there are many men in this world. They shouldn't be sad for such a heartless person."

"But there's nothing I can do not to be sad. What should I do?" Ye Jia helplessly covered her mouth, trying to control her sobs. If Long Haochen really only wanted the child in her womb, wouldn't the baby be snatched away by him after it was born?

If she lost him and lost her child, would there still be any meaning for her to continue living?

"Jiajia, don't worry." Nangong Ye seriously comforted him, "In the future, you will stay here, or come to America with me. As long as I am here, no one will be able to hurt you. Trust me!"

Hearing his words, Ye Jia hurriedly shook her head, "Mister Nan Gong …. "I don't want to disturb you, I …"

"Not at all!" Nangong Ye cut her off and she was even a little angry, "Look at such a big house, who would you disturb? "Why do you always like to keep people at arm's length?"

Ye Jia was speechless and stared at the unhappy Nan Gong Ye. She merely did not wish to trouble him. That was because she did not know what level Nangong Ye's feelings for her were. Was she merely a friend? If it was just a friend, how could he be so good to her?

She did not wish for Nangong Ye to have too many feelings for her that surpassed those of a friend. Her heart had already been filled to the brim by someone. She couldn't hold another person in her heart anymore. If she didn't want to hurt anyone, then she shouldn't let others fall in love with her.

Nangong Ye seemed to understand her thoughts. He lightly sighed and comforted, "Jiajia, don't worry too much. I'm concerned about you as a friend. If you were to approach me from a closer distance, it could also be said to be related to you."

"Family relationship?" Ye Jia did not understand. She wrinkled her nose and looked at him.

Nangong Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, the moment you saw me, you already suspected my identity, right? How can there be two strangers who look so much like each other? "

Ye Jia was surprised and opened her mouth. She looked at him with her mouth wide open and exclaimed, "You mean …. You're the real Long Yingqi? Are you really Long Haochen's twin brother? "

That's right, she had always suspected the relationship between Nangong Ye and Long Haochen and Long Yingqi, but she couldn't understand it at all, so she never thought about it again. He never thought that Nangong Ye would be Long Yingqi! What shocking news!

"You mean you were the one who was kidnapped twenty-four years ago?" Ye Jia mumbled as she struggled to digest this shocking news. Her mind was in a mess, even more confused than before!

Just then, the sleeping Madam Nangong who had been woken up walked out of her room. She bent over to look at Nangong Ye and said, "Yeye, who are you talking to? Why aren't you entering the room? Also, was someone crying just now? "

"Mom, I'll go in immediately." Nangong Ye complied and began locking up the car, getting out.

When Ye Jia saw Madam Nan Gong, she quickly wiped away the tears on her face and greeted carefully, "Madam, hello." She had never seen Madam Nangong before, so she was unable to understand her temperament.

On the other hand, Madam Nangong knew her. She sized her up and gave an 'oh' before standing up and waiting for them to get out of the car.

Nangong Ye turned to Ye Jia and comforted her, "Let Long Haochen personally explain to you everything. I believe he should be arriving here tomorrow morning."

Ye Jia was stunned for a moment, but Nangong Ye had already gotten out of the car. She walked around the car from the front and opened the door for her, extending her hand, "Get out, it's very late. Let's go upstairs and rest early."

Ye Jia hesitated for a moment before she pressed her palm against his, allowing him to help her out of the car. The moment they got out of the car, they felt two unfriendly gazes shooting towards them from the side. It was Madam Nangong!

Madam Nangong sized up the pot-bellied Ye Jia. She clearly remembered that she was Long Haoxuan's woman. Going home with a man in the middle of the night, what was this crying about?

"What did you bring her home for? "She is Long Haochen's woman." Madam Nangong turned to Nangong Ye and spoke with slight dissatisfaction. Back then, Nangong Ye had been heartbroken because of this woman. Now that she had come back with him, how could she welcome him with such a big belly?

When Ye Jia heard what Madame Nan Gong said, her face turned pale. She trembled uncomfortably as if she wanted to run away. That's right. Why would she follow Nangong Ye back here? What an inappropriate behavior!

"I'm sorry, I think I should leave this place." Feeling the slight unhappiness on Nangong Ye's face, she forced a smile and said, "Mister Nangong, I can go to Hu's house. I used to stay at her house."

"Unlike today, you may be in danger at any time, so it's better for you to stay here obediently." Nangong Ye looked at her with a serious expression. The people from the Mountain Gate Division were watching her closely, so how could he allow her to stay outside?

Madam Nangong's face turned ugly. Nangong Ye was obviously going against her! For this woman? Before she could express her dissatisfaction, Nangong Ye turned to her and said at the right time, "Mom, let Ye Jia stay here for a few days. I guarantee that she won't affect your life, okay?"

Only then did Madam Nangong's heart feel a little better. Nangong Ye's words could be considered as giving her a way out of this predicament. It was just taking in a girl anyway. Since the Nangong family was big, it was fine if he was happy. At the very least, it would not cause any discord between mother and son.

Ever since Nangong Ye found out about what happened 24 years ago, Madam Nangong had always felt guilty towards him. She had to be careful in everything she did, afraid that he would abandon her and the company to return to the Long family to be his second young master if he became unhappy.

Ru Yue nodded her head. "Since you want her to stay here, there shouldn't be any problems with it. It's just that …" Madam Nangong looked at Nangong Ye and said hesitantly, "Aren't we returning to the United States in a few days?"

Was he not going to reply? She couldn't return as Madame Long had blocked her at the last critical moment. Could it be because of this woman that he won't be able to return this time? She was now looking forward to returning to the United States, to save herself the worry.

Madam Long had never given up on planning to snatch Nangong Ye back. She was afraid that she would lose her. If he went back to the United States, at least he wouldn't have a chance to meet with Madam Long or Nangong Ye.
