"Then I'll have to trouble Director Zhang," Lu Lishan said with a smile.

Director Zhang waved his hand, and someone immediately pulled Yao Zheng up from the ground.

Yao Zheng bared his teeth and shouted, "You...you're actually in cahoots with him! Lu Lishan is a gangster, didn't you know that!"

"Mr. Yao!" Director Zhang sneered, "President Lu is the president of Qingshan Entertainment Company and has made indelible contributions to the development of film and television culture. He's even going to be nominated for the Top Ten Outstanding Youths of Yangcheng next year! Does Mr. Yao mean that our mayor can't distinguish right from wrong?"

Yao Zheng stared wide-eyed, speechless.

"I have to thank President Lu for arriving early, so you didn't get away!"

"But...but can't you see his men? His guns..."

“These are the guns I’m handing over!” Lu Lishan smiled.

“Director Zhang, one of my brothers works with the police at the border to combat various arms smuggling activities. These guns were all confiscated by him. Now I am handing them over to you, Director, as it is my duty as a citizen of Yangcheng!”

Yao Zheng was completely dumbfounded.

"Mr. Yao," Director Zhang chuckled, "did General Lu just order someone to fire?"

"No...no."

"But Mr. Lu didn't cause you any real physical harm!"

"this……"

"A person as principled as President Lu should be a role model for all citizens of Yangcheng!"

"Director Zhang, you flatter me," Lu Lishan replied in unison. "Ever since I came to Yangcheng, I've been determined to be a law-abiding citizen!"

"Okay." Director Zhang nodded. "Then please come with me to make a statement. Thank you for your cooperation!"

...

The statement was just a formality.

After all, given Lu Lishan's intimidating presence, no one dared to utter a word.

The Yao family eventually returned to Qin Minzhi's care, and Qin Minzhi managed the Yao family affairs until Yao Wanyin's condition improved.

Lin Yuqing is also slowly getting better. She was originally an optimistic and cheerful person, but this time the blow was too great for her. Although she bravely got through it, she is still much more silent than before.

Jiang Can and Yao Wanyin gradually became familiar with each other.

One day, she pushed Yao Wanyin in her stroller in the yard. The warm sunshine felt wonderful on her skin.

Bai Jingyuan was held up by something and asked Jiang Can to stay with him a little longer. Jiang Can smiled after reading the message and put her phone back in her pocket.

“Jiang Can,” Yao Wanyin said softly, “you must be bored keeping me company, right? If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. You really don’t need to worry about me! I can manage on my own.”

"It's nothing." Jiang Can helped her cover her legs with the blanket. "The artists in the company are all behaving themselves now, and the United Hospital is under construction. I just need to check the construction progress on time."

"I really envy you." Yao Wanyin smiled at her. "You have a career you love, you're so capable, and you have the Third Young Master by your side with all his heart..."

"You also have someone by your side who is wholeheartedly with you!" Jiang Can smiled, her big eyes seemingly holding countless stars, making her especially beautiful.

"I heard from Uncle Yin that during the time when everyone thought you had amnesia, Bai Jingyuan came to keep you company every day!"

Yao Wanyin blushed slightly, a glimmer of light appearing in her eyes.

"Actually, I envy you!" Jiang Can said softly. "You've encountered so many setbacks, yet you still maintain a brave and positive attitude, which is truly admirable... Especially when you stood up to expose Yao Manning, I felt like you were a heroine!"

“Wanyin,” she gently held her hand, “how did you manage to endure for so many years? If it were me, I don’t think I could have lasted that long!”

Yao Wanyin smiled sheepishly, "You're making me sound too noble! Actually, when I kept those pieces of evidence, I never intended to expose her in public one day..."

Jiang Can was taken aback.

“I used to think that as long as Yao Manning didn’t hurt my mother, it would be fine. Anyway, I didn’t have many days left to live, so I used this method to protect my mother’s safety.”

"Later, Yao Manning went even further, so I became more cautious and secretly went to the hospital for a medical examination every time I went there, and eventually I got the DNA test report."

“And that night…” Yao Wanyin’s voice trailed off, a smile playing on her lips, “I met someone who made me make up my mind.”

Jiang Can understood that the person was Bai Jingyuan.

If it weren't for that night, Yao Wanyin wouldn't have been so eager to vent her anger. It was because she met Bai Jingyuan that a ray of light shone into her dark life, giving her the unwavering determination to keep going.

“It’s because I met him,” Yao Wanyin said softly, “I want the whole world to know I exist, I want to… stand firmly by his side.”

Jiang Can's heart stirred, and her nose felt a little sore.

"Bai Jingyuan will definitely not let you down." She looked into her eyes. "Wanyin, you made the right choice!"

Yao Wanyin smiled, a smile under the sunlight that was the most beautiful she had ever shown in her twenty-odd years.

...

After this incident, Huo Wenyuan suggested that he meet with Jiang Can.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. I'll talk to Grandpa about it," Huo Zhixing said softly in Jiang Can's ear as he embraced her.

Jiang Can was peeling an orange when she broke off a segment and popped it into his mouth.

The sweet and sour taste instantly soothed his tongue, leaving him feeling incredibly refreshed.

Just as he opened his mouth to ask for the second piece, Jiang Can's hand stopped.

Huo Zhixing stared blankly for a few seconds, then slowly closed his mouth and said softly, "Whatever decision you make, the premise is that you can't wrong yourself!"

Jiang Can pondered for a moment, then smiled softly.

"Going to see your grandfather, how can that be considered a grievance?"
