And afterwards, there was no news at all, not because she completely abandoned her mother, but because she was under Xue Rong’s house arrest!

Xue Rong said with a heart like dead ashes, "Anyway, my plan failed, I have nothing to say, do whatever you want!"

This time, she didn’t beg for mercy like last time, nor did she curse! Only despair, deep despair!

Seeing her like this, Ye Anxin felt a pang of bitterness, sympathized with her, but still couldn’t forgive her!

In her view, since Xue Rong could think of poisoning people, she should not be forgiven! No matter how many reasons she has, she cannot harm her husband in this way!

She could choose to divorce, divide Nan Mingchuan’s assets, or try everything to win this man’s heart back, but she should never, ever, poison her husband and place him under house arrest! This is the most foolish and unforgivable thing!

"Uncle...!" Ye Anxin looked towards Mu Beiting, seeking his opinion.

Mu Beiting calmly said, "Everything is up to you!"

Ye Anxin sighed and said helplessly, "Let’s handle it according to the law! Hand her over to the judge and see how the judge rules!"

"Hmm!" Mu Beiting nodded, showing no objection.

Ye Anxin sighed and tiredly sat down next to Mu Beiting, "Pete, take her away!"

Pete nodded and gestured to the two black-clad bodyguards who had just escorted Xue Rong downstairs!

The two bodyguards received the order and pulled Xue Rong up from the ground.

Nan Mingchuan’s gaze was fixed on Xue Rong the entire time!

He naturally saw her despair!

In their thirty-plus years of marriage, no matter what happened, she was never in despair!

If she had screamed and shouted like last time, or struggled desperately, trying to escape, he might have thought she deserved it!

But this time, she was too quiet, unusually quiet!

He knew that a person only becomes like this when they are completely desperate!

And how did she become like this?

In the end, it was his responsibility, it was his failure to fulfill the responsibilities of a husband!

Even though he felt guilty towards her and thought about making amends, he also knew that he could never love her again or return to how they were before!

In the end, among the three of them, she was the most innocent one!

Thinking of this, a hint of reluctance flashed through Nan Mingchuan’s previously disappointed heart, as he softly called out to Ye Anxin, "Anxin...!"

Ye Anxin looked at Nan Mingchuan with puzzlement!

Nan Mingchuan implored, "Anxin, can you let her go?"

Upon hearing this, not only was Ye Anxin stunned, but even Xue Rong was taken aback!

Nan Mingchuan lowered his eyes, guilty, "Ultimately, this is my fault, it was my despair that drove her to a dead end! If I had been a little better to her and given her a glimmer of hope, she wouldn’t have chosen this path!"

Ye Anxin worriedly called out, "Dad...!"

Her worry stemmed from the fear that if they let Xue Rong go this time, what if she does something like this again next time?

Nan Mingchuan gently said, "Think of it as me begging you! Let her go! After all, she didn’t really harm me, otherwise, she would’ve poisoned me to death with rat poison instead of just putting me under house arrest! She still has feelings for me!"

Hearing Nan Mingchuan pleading for her, and after listening to his words, Xue Rong’s eyes immediately reddened! The cold and strong facade she had been maintaining instantly shattered, leaving only grievance and heartache!

Ye Anxin still hesitated, "But what if she harms you next time? I was too soft-hearted last time, and letting her go led to today’s situation!"

Nan Mingchuan gave Ye Anxin a deep look, his gaze fluctuating, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "Anxin, acknowledge your roots and return to your family! Jianning has gone abroad and will never return! The Nanshang Group needs a successor! Come back to the Nan Family; I will hand everything over to you, then I will take Xue Rong and leave here to find Jianning! Once we leave, we will never return, living a simple life!"

Perhaps due to the drug wearing off, Nan Mingchuan’s strength was somewhat restored compared to before, his voice louder, no longer weak and powerless!

After hearing Nan Mingchuan’s words, Xue Rong widened her eyes in disbelief, choking back tears, "Are you really willing to leave here with me? Spend a lifetime with me?"

Nan Mingchuan looked at Xue Rong, and upon seeing the tears in her eyes, boundless guilt and self-reproach overwhelmed him!

At that moment, he suddenly felt that the woman before him had aged so much!

In the past twenty-six years, he had never looked at her closely, nor asked what she needed! He only focused on satisfying her financially and materially!

It was not until this moment that he realized this woman needed nothing but his care and concern!

For all these years, he had neglected her too much; it was all his fault! He only wished to repent and make amends, but didn’t know if it was still possible!

Nan Mingchuan said earnestly, "For the past twenty-six years, I only focused on missing Fang Chuo and Anxin, neglecting your feelings. I’m sorry, it was all my fault! If you are willing to give me a chance, I am willing to give up everything in Du City and accompany you to find Jianning! Over a month ago, when Jianning wanted you to leave with her, you refused. I knew you couldn’t bear to leave me! At that time, I was foolish and didn’t appreciate you, repeatedly hurting you! I hope you can forgive my past mistakes and give me another chance. I will use the rest of my life to make up for what I owe you!"

The more Xue Rong listened, the more fiercely her tears flowed, until eventually, she was sobbing uncontrollably.

Seeing her not answering, Nan Mingchuan patiently asked again, "Are you willing to give me this opportunity?"

Xue Rong nodded vigorously, wiped the tears from her eyes and face, and sobbed, "I will, I will give it to you! Do you know? I have been waiting for these words for twenty-six years, hoping day and night for your change of heart! As long as you are willing to come back to me, I don’t want anything else, everything in Du City means nothing to me anymore!"

Upon hearing this, Nan Mingchuan unknowingly felt his eyes moisten, "It’s my late realization, but thankfully there’s still a chance, it’s not too late!"

This woman, whom he neglected for twenty-six years, today he finally realized, had given so much to him!

This house arrest was just a desperate act, driven to a dead end by him, only then did she act stupidly and do such a thing!

He knew that as long as he treated her well, she would definitely change her ways and not do anything foolish again!

Witnessing this touching scene, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but feel her eyes water too!
