Chapter 743: I love you
Andrew sighed and helplessly shook his head before pulling her into his embrace. "It's alright, we will get through this."
Burying her head on his chest, she vigorously shook her head, "We won't until and unless you decide to stop being indebted to him. You have already done and given him enough brother Andrew. When will you realize that he is using you and is trying to leech off you? He never cared for us, he only took advantage of the vulnerable situation and forced you to be loyal to him."
Kissing the top of her head, he said, "He helped us when we had nothing, maybe his intentions were not good but he at least made sure that we did not sleep hungry right? And you don't have to listen to him anymore, you can do whatever you want and no one will stop you."
"No, you don't understand." Pulling away, she shook her head, "I don't want you to go against the Li's."
"Jenni—"
Cutting him off, she added, "I love Yushen and he is a Li. I don't want my own brother to plot against them. Whose side am I to choose if that happens? I don't want to choose Yushen over you or you over him. I just want to live a peaceful life with everyone I love around me. Is that too much to ask?"
Grabbing his hand, she continued, "We have everything now so can't we just be our own? Can you just let him go? Do you have to listen to him and go against the Li's even though you don't want to?"
When Andrew did not say anything, Jennifer let go off his hand. Wiping her tears away, she said, "Don't find me in the future, you can leave."
"Jenni you—"
"Please brother Andrew leave, I don't want to see you ever again. You are just thinking about yourself and that stupid man, you are selfish. I don't wanna be associated with someone like you so just leave."
Clenching his hand into a fist, Andrew took a deep breath and walked out of the apartment.
Sitting on the floor, she hugged her knees and started crying.
…
Outside the apartment.
Holding a bouquet of roses in his hand, Yushen was waiting for the elevator when Andrew came down from the stairs
"The elevator isn't working," he grumpily said before storming out of the building.
"Thank you so—" Yushen stopped midway when he realised that the man was already gone.
Not paying much heed to it, he started walking upstairs.
….
When he entered Jennifer's apartment, he widened his eyes in shock when he saw her sitting on the floor crying.
Tossing the bouquet aside, he squatted down and quickly pulled her into his embrace. "What happened? Why are you crying Jenni?"
Burying her head on his neck, she started crying harder. Would Yushen hate her if he finds out about her family? The thought about him hating her and not willing to be with her made her heart ache.
Scoping her into his arms, he placed her on the couch and cupped her face. "Hey, what happened? Stop crying." Wiping her tears away, he asked, "What happened? Are you hurt somewhere? Did someone tell you something in the office?"
When she shook her head, he sighed, "Then what happened? Tell me what happened Jenni? I don't like it when you cry. Did I do something? Did I make any mistake? I am very sorry if I—"
"No, you did not do anything. It's just—" Looking at him, she said, "I don't want you to hate me Yushen."
"What? Why would I hate you? Are you crying because you think that I hate you? Are you crazy?" Pulling her into his embrace once again, he frowned, "Stop thinking about useless things, I can never hate you okay?"
"What if I tell you that my family they—"
Cutting her off, he pulled away and cupped her cheeks, "My mom has always taught us not to judge people by their background or their family members because each person is bound to be different from the other."
Kissing the back of her hand, he added, "I love you Jennifer and not your family. Why do you think I never asked you about your family background? It's because I don't care who they are or what they do. All I care about is you and I know that you are the sweetest and nicest person I have ever met."
"You love me?" She asked.
He sighed and helplessly shook his head, "I had plans but well, the situation asked for it so—"
Cutting him off, she pounced into his embrace. "I love you too Yushen, I love you so much."
Grinning from ear to ear, he hugged her tighter.

"Master Mr Mo woke up."
Leaving his meal in between, Pulos rushed towards Mo Dinjung's room.
"Uncle Mo," he beamed before rushing towards him.
Groaning in pain, Dinjung asked, "Is he alive?"
Pulos nodded his head and said, "The Li's saved him."
"Well, I see that we have an additional bunch of men to deal with," Dinjung mockingly smirked.
"Don't worry uncle Mo, Andrew is already dealing with the Li's back in country S. You must focus on recuperating first."
"I have rested enough Pulos, now it's time to make sure that my little nephew pays for what he has dared to do."
