“Just met, still hard to tell, but he says he accepts the child!”

“Do you know much about him?”

“Just getting started, don’t know much yet,” Lin Xiangwan spoke vaguely.

Song Yichen looked at her anxiously. “If he can’t treat you and the child well, then break up with him. Don’t ever oppress yourself!”

Lin Xiangwan managed a faint smile. “Of course. CEO Song, if there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work!”

Song Yichen gazed blankly at her. “… You aren’t going to ask why I came to your house last night?”

She tucked her smile away, speaking earnestly, “Don’t come again in the future…if you wish for me to stay here to work…”

Finishing her speech, she practically ran off!

Upon reaching the door, Lin Xiangwan was once again reduced to tears. If she could choose, she’d prefer him being the one who hurt her.

That way, it would be easier for her to let go.

But why is he being so good to her?

……

Song Yichen sunk into a chair, sitting idle and motionless.

Gradually, he showed a self-mocking smile, not a trace of joy in it.

“You’re definitely not my brother, I don’t have a brother. My parents only have me as their favorite!”

The words she first spoke when she arrived at their house were so firm.

At ten, she was like a little wildflower, beautiful and fierce, always ready for a fight.

She never needed anyone’s pity. What she wanted, she either grabbed it or tricked her way to get it!

Back then, her usual saying was, ‘No one can pity you, no one has to help you. If you want to live better, rely on yourself. If not, go and cry in a corner!’

At that time, he didn’t like her. She would always deflect from the bad things she’d done and try to justify herself.

“Why don’t you like me? I think I’m prettier than any girl you like. Are your eyes broken?” The fifteen-year-old her, in her first year of high school, boldly asked him when she came home.

It was the first time he really looked at her closely. At fifteen, she was already tall and pretty. Indeed, she was prettier than any girl he had seen.

At seventeen, he was in his adolescence. Seeing her slightly bulging chest, he had a physiological reaction. “Do you think you are pretty?”

“Of course!” She raised her chin proudly.

Since she could remember, Lin Xiangwan liked to say she was beautiful. And she really believed so. It seemed that as long as she was beautiful, she was superior!

Her mindset was truly annoying.

Only when he grew up, did he realize that the reason she always showed off her appearance was not because she was shallow. It was because only a beautiful exterior truly belonged to her.

Everything else was just others pitying her.

Arrogance, dominance, irrationality, all were expressions of her inferiority.

At seventeen, he didn’t understand much and her lack of boundaries irritated him. So, he disliked her even more. “Only if you become a lady, will I notice you. Otherwise, you will forever be a passerby in my eyes!”

Lin Xiangwan felt wronged, but stubbornly stared at him. “Fine, I will show you that I can be a lady!”

“Hmph …” He gave a proud laugh. “Don’t think that just by wearing a white dress, you’re a lady. You need to be sophisticated, polite, intelligent, elegant, and most importantly, kind-hearted. Which of these qualities do you have?”

Lin Xiangwan was hurt by his disdainful expression and her fighting spirit flared up. “As long as I have all of these, it’ll be good enough?”

These requirements were more challenging than reaching the sky for her, weren’t they?

Song Yichen nodded. “For now, yes!”

“Fine, just wait. Within two months, you will see a real lady!” She vowed with determination.

He took this as a joke and dismissed it with a laugh.

However, to his surprise, at the end of the semester two months later, Lin Xiangwan ranked first in the entire grade.

This nearly shocked the whole high school, everyone including her teachers didn’t believe her grades. The director of school discipline even played back the exam video to see if she cheated.

But she really hadn’t!

At that moment, he truly started to see her in a new light!

Holding up her report card, she cornered him at the door. “Song Yichen, am I a lady now? Not only do I wear a white dress, but I also have knowledge, manners, sophistication, and elegance!”

“Then you should continue to work hard!” He laughed.

“Of course. So, do you think I’m a beauty now?” She persistently asked.

“Almost there!” His appraisal of her wasn’t high.

“Then, can I be your girlfriend?” Her nervous hands were twisted to the extreme.

He patted her head and frowned, “You’ve just started high school and all you think about is dating?”

Not showing any embarrassment, she answered very earnestly, “I have to have a plan in advance. We can date for a few years and then get married as soon as I graduate. Of course, I can also marry you as soon as you graduate! I so desperately need a home, a real one, real family. I don’t want to wait, I want to as soon as possible…”

How many years does a person have in their lifetime? She wouldn’t have a home before the age of twenty, she really didn’t want it to be any later!

Her words moved him deeply. He never imagined that a naughty, almost problematic girl like her could have such a sentimental side.

So, she really was a very profound young woman!

From that moment on, he began to like this girl with all his heart!

‘Knock, knock, knock…’ The assistant knocked a few times and directly came in. “CEO, I’ve already told the doorman not to tell Manager Lin about her express mail!”

“Mm!” Song Yichen nodded.

He then laughed slyly. That little wild child was quite smart, actually shortlisted for the ‘Yutong Fund Plan’. The secretary accidentally gave Lin Xiangwan’s express delivery to him this morning, and he conveniently did her a favor!

“CEO, Qin Muchuan has declined our invitation, what can we do?” The assistant said with difficulty.

“He declined?” Song Yichen became moody and said with rage. “Who does he think I, Song Yichen, am? He is too dismissive of me!”

The assistant didn’t say a word.

‘Huatai Group’ was not an ordinary group, and Qin Muchuan was not an ordinary CEO. His declining the invitation was normal!

Actually, the CEO didn’t need to be upset.

Song Yichen said impatiently, “Continue to invite him. If you can’t get him, your bonus for the year will be withdrawn!”

“Yes!” The assistant left without any complaint!

……

Just as Lin Xiangwan returned to her office, she received a call from her foster mother, Song Yichen’s mother——
