Yao Feiran's gaze was indifferent, as if she were looking at a stranger.

For a moment, Lin He felt a pang of panic.

When they were dating, Yao Feiran always looked at him with a gentle smile. She was very emotionally stable. Sometimes when he encountered problems at work, Yao Feiran could break them down and analyze them. She wouldn't ask for gifts unsolicited, but if you gave her a gift, she would show a happy expression. She would cherish your efforts and would also give you things you like.

Although it seemed like he did more throughout the process, she was always there to support him when he was feeling lost.

But now, all that's left in her eyes is indifference. While he was still struggling with his decision, she completely withdrew from his life.

That's why he was angry and wanted to get to the bottom of it.

At this moment, Mr. Lin walked over, beaming, and said, "President Yao, your brother got married without telling me. I only found out from Old Xu. I've come uninvited, so please don't send me away."

"This is Mr. Lin giving me face."

Yao Feiran gave a polite smile, and only then did Lin's father notice Lin He's presence: "Lin He, what brings you here?"

Lin He looked at her, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating. Yao Feiran said calmly, "He's my younger brother's former senior."

Lin's father suddenly realized.

"I see. I thought my son had some kind of relationship with President Yao."

Yao Feiran smiled without saying a word, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then left.

Lin He was stunned for a long time. His father, who had noticed something amiss earlier, pulled him aside.

"What's your relationship with President Lin?"

"She's my girlfriend, and we had a fight."

"Since it's a conflict, as long as it's not a matter of principle, it's not a big deal. You should hurry up and coax her back." Lin's father was initially overjoyed, but his brows quickly furrowed: "Wait, you didn't listen to your mother and go see the Zhao family's youngest daughter, did you?"

Seeing that Lin He didn't answer, he said angrily, "You bastard, do you think you can keep this from President Yao?"

Seeing his father's reaction, Lin He felt even worse.

"Dad, Yao Feiran...who is she?"

"She's a major shareholder in our company, and not just ours. Her net worth is far beyond what the Lin family can compare to. She also has shares in several large international corporations. The latest oral neuroprotective agent for ALS is a project she invested in, and it's already in production. You don't even know her background? I heard you mention having a girlfriend of over ten years, could it be her?"

A bitter smile appeared on Lin He's lips: "Yes, she didn't tell me anything."

Lin's father looked at Lin He with increasing suspicion. Yao Feiran had never publicly acknowledged any boyfriend, and probably didn't care much about this son. Moreover, his son, as an illegitimate child, was recognized and then encouraged by his birth mother to go on a blind date with the youngest daughter of the Zhao family, which Yao Feiran probably gave up on.

The initial enthusiasm of Lin's father was extinguished by a bucket of cold water.

"It seems that President Yao was just playing you. After all these years, you still can't hold onto a woman's heart. You're really useless. You'd better not offend her, or I won't be able to protect you. Remember, I don't only have you as my son."

"Yes, Dad."

Lin He felt a cold sweat break out on his back. He had probably offended her. His mother actually thought she could get rid of Yao Feiran with a million yuan. How ridiculous.

Moreover, Lin's father did indeed have more than one illegitimate son, which is why Lin's mother was so anxious and wanted to use him to get help from others. But if his mother knew the truth, she would probably regret it immensely.

The people she looks down on are actually people she can't reach.

After attending the wedding, Yao Feiran flew directly abroad with a large amount of supplies. As an aid worker, she was dedicated to treating civilians displaced on the battlefield, providing them with medical support and food.

She was born with the ability to sense danger, saved countless lives, and lived peacefully for ten years until the war ended before flying back to her country.

In recent years, Yao Menghe has had two daughters from somewhere. One of them is blonde and blue-eyed. Yao's mother scolded her for a while, but she was still overjoyed and took care of her grandson.

As for that celebrity named Gu Ceming, he has long been blacklisted, burdened with huge breach of contract fees, and is penniless.

Yao Menghe has also matured a lot.

"Now I finally understand the troubles of being rich. It turns out they're all after your money and can't get your heart. I've spent so much money supporting him all these years, and he still lets me play around with other women. I'm not bad looking either. Does he think I'll forgive him no matter what?"

"You're overthinking it. You can't get true love without money. At least you have time to feel sentimental. When you're broke, you don't even have time to feel sentimental. The next day, you just have to get yourself together and work like a beast of burden."

Yao Menghe: "...It's almost Chinese New Year, and the employees' year-end bonuses are still a bit low. I'll apply for some special awards for them."

After a while, Yao Menghe said, "By the way, sis, your ex-boyfriend was just getting his hopes up for nothing. He can't dream of becoming a rich young master."

Yao Feiran knew what she meant. Lin's father died suddenly, and his first wife and daughter joined forces to seize power, turning the company into an empty shell. In addition, so many of Lin's illegitimate children had returned, and Lin He got nothing.

Before joining the Lin family, Lin He was an employee of a large factory with an annual salary of one million, but now he has nothing.

When Yao Feiran left, Lin's mother came looking for her many times, even approaching Yao Menghe, but Yao Menghe dismissed her.

"He was never meant to be. Although he was quite capable, his status limited him, and he underestimated his first wife's daughter. She had been with the company for so many years and had already made ample preparations."

Lin's father died of a heart attack and was not discovered until several hours later, which can be seen as a consequence of being abandoned by everyone.

More than ten years later, Wang Ying fell and had to go to the hospital frequently. Yao's parents then settled in Shucheng with her parents, and her maternal grandparents also came with them.

With several housekeepers and Yao Menghe's two daughters, the family is in constant chaos every day.

Yao Feiran spent a few years in a country where war had broken out. When she was transiting through another country on her way back to China, she took the opportunity to travel for two days. In the financial district of the city center, there was a middle-aged man who looked a lot like Yao's father.

Yao Feiran recalled the group photo from back then and guessed that the other person was the original owner's uncle. He had never appeared in the original story until the original owner died. She heard that he had always had excellent grades and then went abroad and never came back.

After returning to China, Yao Feiran did not tell her grandparents about the incident, but she told her mother.

Yao's mother remained expressionless: "Your uncle is smarter than all his brothers and sisters. He got into a university in the capital during the college entrance examination and then went abroad to study."

"Then why don't you come back? Did your grandparents do something to hurt him?"

"No, actually your grandparents' favorite person wasn't your dad, but this uncle. They were very proud of him back then. Another reason your aunt disliked your grandma was that when your uncle went abroad, your grandma gave him most of her savings."
