âI donât hate youâ¦â
These four simple words were like heavy hammers striking Qin Yingyueâs heart.
Tears streamed down her face like a broken dam.
The two of them embraced tightly.
Qin Yingyueâs cries resounded throughout the entire underground parking lot.
The car owners who wanted to leave through this exit turned their cars around, not wanting to interrupt the two people who were crying in each otherâs arms.
Shen Shuyi quietly took a few steps back.
She was a little emotional, but also a little glad.
All the preparations in the world might not be as effective as a sudden encounter.
Quietly, Shen Shuyi also wiped her tears.
After so many years, they finally met.
After a long time, the mother and son separated. Qin Yingyue wiped her tears.
âLetâs go. This is not the place to talk.â
âOkay.â
Lin Yi heaved a sigh of relief. He thought that he wouldnât cry.
However, that moment proved that blood was thicker than water, and his eyes welled up with tears.
âGet in the car first. Weâll talk when we get home.â
Shen Shuyi came over and ushered the two of them into the car.
Then, she drove home.
However, when they arrived at the door, Shen Shuyi didnât let Lin Yi leave and asked him to stay.
If this incident hadnât occurred, it would naturally be a different story.
However, now that the mother and son had reunited, they needed more time to chat.
There not might be another chance in the future.
Lin Yi originally refused, but there were some things that he couldnât say out loud, so he agreed to Shen Shuyiâs request.
Shen Shuyiâs house was not small. It measured about 200 square meters in total.
With Shen Shuyiâs financial resources, forget 200 square meters, she could even afford a 2,000 square meter villa.
But the problem was that Liang Cunxiaoâs identity was sensitive. Being able to live in such a big house already exceeded the expected standards.
The house was huge, but the decoration was very trendy.
The house could not be changed, but it could be renovated.
Therefore, every few years, both families would change the interior design.
Liang Cunxiao, who was sandwiched between the mother and daughter, was stifled by this.
This was because he would sometimes go on business trips for more than a month.
Everything was dandy when he left, but when he returned, the house would look completely different. He would often, think that he had walked into the wrong house.
When they reached home, Shen Shuyi left to boil water to make tea.
Qin Yingyue was still unable to calm down, while Lin Yi was also a bit nervous.
This revelation required time to digest.
âWhat do you plan to do after the Qin family finds out that youâre back?â Shen Shuyi asked.
âIâll leave tomorrow.â Qin Yingyue said.
âHeâs in Doora, so Iâll go look for him there. Regardless, I canât stay in Yanjing anymore.â
âThatâs not necessary. Why are we hiding from them?â Lin Yi said nonchalantly.
âIf the Qin family causes trouble again, we can deal with them once more,â
Shen Shuyi and Qin Yingyue looked at each other and smiled.
This fearlessness really seemed to be carved from the same mold.
âThe distribution of power in Yanjing isnât as simple as you think,â Shen Shuyi said.
âEven though the Liang familyâs status has risen considerably now, we still donât have the right to touch the Qin family. Otherwise, Lu Beichen wouldnât bother playing these games with them.â
Lin Yi frowned slightly. âWhat happened back then? Itâs been so many years, and theyâre still brooding over it?â
âThey did something similar to what you did today,â Mrs. Shen replied.
âHmm?â
âYour dad, back in the day, was a prominent figure in Yanjing. He got into a fight with your momâs two uncles over your mom, and it caused him some issues. To this day, this matter hasnât been resolved,â Shen Shuyi explained.
âAfter more than 20 years, you beat up their son again. How do we rectify this?â
âUhâ¦â Lin Yi scratched his head awkwardly, âIâm really sorry.â
âItâs also because of what happened back then that the Qin familyâs influence has regressed. Otherwise, they would still be in the top three families now.â
âBut this isnât a solution in the long run,â Lin Yi remarked.
âItâs fine. In any case, I only come back occasionally. Iâve gotten used to wandering around for so many years. Iâm no longer accustomed to staying in one place for a long time,â Qin Yingyue said.
Shen Shuyi nodded. âYou donât have to worry about this. If your mother planned to, she could easily solve this problem. Itâs just that she doesnât want to.â
In terms of strength, there was still a huge gap between Lin Yi and Lin Jingzhan.
If Lin Jingzhan wanted to, he could quickly resolve the Qin familyâs matter.
However, for so many years, Lin Jingzhan and Qin Yingyue had never done this. This meant he just did not want to.
After all, they shared the same bloodline, and Qin Yingyue was not the kind of person who had a heart of stone.
She would not do such a thing unless she had no other choice.
âAlright then.â Lin Yi pursed his lips.
âCoincidentally, my plane is parked at the airport. You can take the plane and leave.â
âThatâs not necessary. Iâll just buy a commercial plane ticket and leave that way. Thereâs no need to go through so much trouble.â Qin Yingyue refused.
âBesides, itâll cost a lot in gas. Thereâs no need for all that.â
âWhat do you mean itâs not necessary?â Shen Shuyi said.
âYour son is amazing now. He has so much money that he canât spend it all. As a mother, itâs only right for you to enjoy it.â
Lin Yi smiled and nodded. âItâs settled then.â
The three of them chatted until past 11 p.m. before going to rest.
Shen Shuyi had been playing the role of a mediator. Although there was still some awkward distance between the two, they had gotten much closer.
In the entire Huaxia, the only person who could make Shen Shuyi behave like this was Qin Yingyue.
When they went to bed that night, Shen Shuyi arranged for Lin Yi to stay in Liang Ruoxuâs room.
Liang Ruoxuâs room was very big, measuring about 30 square meters. The room was neat and tidy, with light blue and gray as the main colors, which suited her personality.
Lin Yi couldnât fall asleep after suddenly changing his bed. He took out his phone and dialed Liang Ruoxu via WeChat video call.
The video call was quickly picked up. Liang Ruoxu was still at his desk at night, working on the documents in her hands.
âStill busy?â
âThere are a few ongoing projects to attract investors. I have to review them.â Liang Ruoxu complained.
âIf we canât meet the targets for the next two quarters, I might be at risk of getting replaced.â
âYo, the mighty Beauty Liang is actually afraid of this?â
âOf course, a certain someone wonât give me any political achievements. I have to rely on my own ability.â Liang Ruoxu said sourly.
âWhat about you? Why are you giving me a call so late at night?â
âGuess.â
âIâm not guessing,â Liang Ruoxu said proudly.
âAlso, where are you? It doesnât look like your house.â
âWhy do you say that? Iâm right at home.â
âStop making things up. Itâs not like I havenât been to Jiuzhou Pavilion before,â Liang Ruoxu said.
âYouâre probably at some vixenâs house again.â
âUh⦠In truth, youâre quite right in saying that. Let me show you which vixen it is.â
With that, Lin Yi turned the camera and showed it to Liang Ruoxu..
