Chapter 141: 096 Her Choice (Second Update)_2
Fang Yuxin indeed was a good girl, but she wasn’t the only good girl in the world! He didn’t need to cause a rift with Zhou Fanghua over Fang Yuxin unless, Fang Yuxin could show greater value!
Qiu Yiming felt somewhat irritated and annoyed, silently cursing himself for being too slow. Just when Qiu Hongsheng had mentioned the marriage earlier, he had been overjoyed and was about to suggest they expedite the wedding plans. However, before he could speak, Zhou Fanghua had cut in, suggesting in no uncertain terms they delay the wedding and even deliberately provoking Fang Yuxin, almost as if looking down on her.
Qiu Yiming really liked Fang Yuxin, and he thought Zhou Fanghua’s remarks were a bit too much, but as her son, could he really contradict Zhou Fanghua directly in front of Fang Yuxin?

He couldn’t do such a thing!
Worried that Fang Yuxin’s continued presence might worsen their relationship, he hurriedly suggested taking Fang Yuxin home. Fang Yuxin couldn’t have wished for more; she had wanted to leave the place long ago!
Once in the car, Qiu Yiming couldn’t wait to say, “Xinxin, my mom was in a bad mood today, don’t take it to heart.”
Fang Yuxin felt only annoyance; she suddenly felt fortunate that she had already lost her feelings for Qiu Yiming. Otherwise, enduring Zhou Fanghua’s public humiliation would have been unbearable!
“I don’t blame her, can we please not talk about it? I need some quiet.” She spoke indifferently and then turned to look out the window, clearly uninterested in engaging with Qiu Yiming.
Qiu Yiming felt even more irritated. He had just proposed to Fang Yuxin and had been rejected, only to come home to Zhou Fanghua’s troubling attitude! He couldn’t understand it; after all, Zhou Fanghua had always liked Fang Yuxin, so why had her attitude changed so abruptly?
Seeing that Fang Yuxin clearly had no intention of speaking, he too remained silent and drove straight to the Fang Family home. As they stopped, and Fang Yuxin was about to open the door, he unbuckled his seat belt, grabbed her wrist, and almost pleaded, “Xinxin, about today’s event, please don’t tell your uncle, aunt, and your brother, okay?”
Fang Yuxin remained silent, and he continued, “You know, your brother has some reservations about my parents, and I’m concerned it might affect both families’ relations if they learn about this. My mom may have spoken some improper words today, but she didn’t mean to, you understand, right? Please don’t tell, okay?”
Seeing his earnestness, Fang Yuxin knew that if she didn’t agree, he probably wouldn’t let go. She looked at Qiu Yiming and suddenly smiled, “Qiu Yiming, what do you take me for? In your eyes, am I someone who irresponsibly stirs up trouble?”
Qiu Yiming met her mocking gaze, and a sudden unease surged through him. Embarrassed, he released Fang Yuxin’s wrist and coughed awkwardly, “Of course, I trust you.” After saying that, he quickly changed the subject, “Zheng Tianhe is not easy to deal with; he has close relationships with many high-ranking officials, so you better be careful. But don’t worry, I won’t stand by idly; I will protect you.”
Fang Yuxin sighed, “I know Zheng Tianhe is tough to deal with, and from what you’ve said, he has considerable support among the higher-ups. You better not get involved, I don’t want to drag the Qiu Family into this.”
Qiu Yiming hadn’t expected her to respond that way, felt a warmth in his heart, and couldn’t help but say, “No! You will never be a burden to me, just be careful, I’ll figure something out.”
Fang Yuxin didn’t say any more. Originally, she indeed had intended to use the Qiu Family’s influence against Zheng Tianhe, but after witnessing Zhou Fanghua’s attitude, she changed her mind. Since she had decided not to continue her relationship with Qiu Yiming, there was no need to keep things tangled.
Qiu Yiming had other things on his mind, and since he didn’t want to see Fang Yuyang right then, he didn’t even get out of the car but drove off directly after Fang Yuxin disembarked.
Fang Yuxin watched the car fade into the distance, her lips curving into a slight, beautiful arc, yet the smile was somewhat cold.
Originally, she hadn’t planned to break ties with the Qiu Family completely. She had intended to reveal the truth about the Elemental Crystal to Qiu Yiming, as a favor to the Qiu Family. However, given Zhou Fanghua’s attitude, she couldn’t proceed with that plan.
Once the Qiu Family learned the news about the Elemental Crystal, their influence in the Safe Zone would significantly increase, which would make it even harder for her to break away from the Qiu Family later.
Now that the Qiu Family had shown no mercy, she couldn’t be blamed for being ruthless!
With this thought, she withdrew her gaze and turned, striding towards her home.
From the rearview mirror, Qiu Yiming watched Fang Yuxin growing further away, his unease growing. Why did he feel like he was losing something very important? What was it? What could it possibly be?
He suddenly slammed the brakes, the tires screeching against the pavement, and Fang Yuxin was long gone from the rearview mirror. Enraged, he punched the steering wheel, his expression growing uglier.
Just then, the two-way radio in the car sprang to life, “Captain, I’ve got some leads on what you asked me to investigate.”
Qiu Yiming’s expression tightened, no longer dwelling on why he felt restless and anxious, and he quickly drove away.
…
In a somewhat sparsely furnished office, Zheng Tianhe looked expectantly at the middle-aged man sitting across from him. The man had a square face, exuding authority with his sharp military uniform. He looked at Zheng Tianhe, a hint of dark cunning flickering in his eyes, “You mean to say, you want to research this Fang Yuxin?”
Zheng nodded, “Exactly, General, I have every reason to suspect that the rumor circulating in the Safe Zone is true, that Fang Yuxin may hold the secret to superpower Awakening, or at the very least, her superpower is quite special and could certainly help with Awakening. If we could fully understand it, we might be able to unravel the secret of superpower Awakening.”
“Perhaps?” The middle-aged man watched him, his eyes unfathomable, “I need to know, how confident are you?”
