301: Chapter 301: The Truth 301: Chapter 301: The Truth The two of them had started talking from a little after eight in the evening and continued chatting until past ten at night.

It was not until Nizi was ready to go to bed that Chen Yang finally ended their conversation.

“You need to take care of yourself over there, rest when you should, eat whatever you want, and don’t hesitate to use what you need.

If you run short on living expenses, just tell your brother, and I’ll send you money,”

At the end of their conversation, Chen Yang had advised her with all these words.

Touched by his messages, Nizi felt extremely moved.

“Thank you, Brother Chen Yang.

I’m doing very well here; I don’t need money.”

Nizi, moved, declined Chen Yang’s offer.

After they wished each other goodnight, the chat finally ended.

After finishing his chat with Nizi, Chen Yang figured it had been quite a while, and Wu Kexin back at home should have finished up by now.

So he put away his phone and headed straight home.

On his way back, Chen Yang did not rush but walked home at a normal pace.

By the time he got home, it was almost eleven-thirty.

“Chen Yang, go check what took you so long!”

As soon as Chen Yang arrived home, Yang Ruoxi immediately questioned him.

Chen Yang had been out for over two hours, which was indeed unusual.

Facing Yang Ruoxi’s questioning, Chen Yang certainly couldn’t admit that he had intentionally stayed out, so he explained with a smile, “The farm had some issues, and I spent some time dealing with that.”

“Hmph, I don’t believe you.”

Yang Ruoxi snorted lightly, her face full of disbelief.

But then she quickly changed her attitude and turned to Wu Kexin.

“Kexin, you should sleep over tonight, it’s so late, and going back would be inconvenient.”

Yang Ruoxi warmly took Wu Kexin’s hand.

It seemed like their relationship had taken a new step forward.

Normally, Wu Kexin would naturally have agreed.

But today, Wu Kexin smiled and declined.

“Ruoxi, I’m afraid I can’t tonight because there’s a lot of paperwork to deal with at the village office, and I must go back,”

Wu Kexin said.

“But it’s so late, isn’t it inconvenient?

Wouldn’t it be better to go back tomorrow and deal with it then?”

Yang Ruoxi checked her phone for the time, which showed it was already past eleven at night.

Wu Kexin naturally knew it was getting late.

“Chen Yang is here; I can just have him drive me back.”

Wu Kexin insisted.

Seeing Wu Kexin so adamant about returning, Yang Ruoxi eventually agreed.

“Alright, then let Chen Yang drive you.”

Yang Ruoxi said, somewhat disappointed.

“Mm-hmm, Ruoxi, goodbye.”

Wu Kexin stood up, waved at Yang Ruoxi, and then walked out with Chen Yang.

“What’s going on?

What exactly is up with Ruoxi?”

Once they were outside the door, Chen Yang immediately asked.

Wu Kexin insisted on going back mainly to share what she knew with Chen Yang.

“Your guess was correct, Ruoxi really did have a fight with her family.”

Wu Kexin suddenly stopped, looked Chen Yang in the eyes, and said.

“I knew it.”

Chen Yang also stopped, thought to himself ‘just as I suspected,’ and asked, “Then do you know what the fight was about?”

Seeing Chen Yang ask this question,

Wu Kexin paused for a moment, hesitating.

She seemed conflicted about whether to tell Chen Yang.

Seeing this, Chen Yang directly said, “Mayor, if there’s something, you need to tell me.

We’re both friends with Ruoxi.

If there’s an issue, let me know, and I might be able to help solve it.”

Chen Yang’s expression was determined; he really wanted to know what exactly was going on with Yang Ruoxi and her family.

Why was her attitude about not wanting to go back so resolute?

Perhaps Wu Kexin was moved by Chen Yang’s words, or maybe she believed Chen Yang truly had a way to solve it.

So she clenched her teeth and said directly, “Chen Yang, the reason Ruoxi doesn’t want to go back is that her dad, he wants her to get married!”

“What?!”

As soon as Kexin uttered these words, Chen Yang was greatly shocked.

“How is that possible?

Ruoxi getting married?

Doesn’t she have no boyfriend?

Who is she marrying?”

Chen Yang’s face was filled with astonishment; this outcome was too unexpected.

Wu Kexin had apparently anticipated Chen Yang’s reaction, so when she saw his shocked, astonished expression, she was not at all surprised.

“That’s right.”

Wu Kexin nodded calmly and seriously, “The reason Ruoxi refuses to go back is that her dad is forcing her to marry someone.”

“Marry whom?”

Chen Yang asked in astonishment immediately.

Seeing the astonishment on Chen Yang’s face, Wu Kexin’s expression fluctuated slightly.

“Who she is marrying is none of your business; anyway, it’s a rich businessman’s son!”

“It’s said that this businessman and Ruoxi’s dad have a very close business relationship.”

“And the reason Ruoxi’s dad wants to marry her off to that businessman’s son is to make this business relationship even more solid.”

“That’s why Ruoxi is so determined not to go back.”

Wu Kexin blurted out everything she knew in one breath.

After hearing all this, Chen Yang’s astonished expression took a long time to fade.

“This… What era are we in?

Are they still doing this kind of thing?

This is too absurd!

Is it really necessary to sacrifice one’s own daughter for a business collaboration?”

After being astonished for a while, Chen Yang finally spoke these words.

Observing Chen Yang’s somewhat unnatural expression, Wu Kexin felt an indescribable emotion.

She could tell that Chen Yang really cared about Yang Ruoxi getting married.

“Chen Yang, you are so anxious; you must really like Ruoxi.”

Just as Chen Yang was still shocked by the sudden news of Yang Ruoxi having to get married, Wu Kexin suddenly asked this.

Upon hearing this question, Chen Yang was stunned again.

He hadn’t expected Kexin to ask so directly.

“That’s true, I do like Ruoxi!”

Following a brief moment of astonishment, Chen Yang suddenly composed himself and nodded firmly.

Seeing Chen Yang nod, Wu Kexin’s expression dimmed slightly, although she had already known this would be the outcome.

But still, seeing Chen Yang nod made her feel somewhat disheartened.

“Since you like Ruoxi, then you should seize the opportunity.”

Wu Kexin tried her best to keep her expression normal and said, “Tomorrow, Ruoxi’s father will definitely come to Willow River Village to forcefully take Ruoxi away.

If you truly care about Ruoxi, then you must seize the opportunity tomorrow and not let him take her away.”

“Otherwise, once Ruoxi goes back, she will inevitably end up married to the rich businessman’s son.”

Wu Kexin declared.

After hearing Wu Kexin’s analysis, Chen Yang remained silent for a long while.

Quite some time later, Chen Yang nodded very firmly: “You’re right; I must seize the opportunity tomorrow and not let her dad take her away.”

Chen Yang’s face was full of determination, moving Wu Kexin deeply.

She wondered if she were in that situation, would this man in front of her be so determined to keep her from leaving?

Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn’t.

She wasn’t sure, but she didn’t ask either.

“Yes, you must keep her here.

As for how, that’s up to you.

I can’t offer any advice.”

Wu Kexin spread her hands and said.

“I know, Kexin.

You have helped me find out so much; I’m already very grateful.

As for how to convince Ruoxi’s dad not to take her away, I’ll handle it myself.”

“Yeah, think it over.

I believe you can do it.”

Wu Kexin nodded, and then the two of them resumed their walk toward the village office.
