"Do you think we won't make it to the end, or do you have some doubts about me?"

A single sentence escaped Shen Tinghe's thin lips, his entire body radiating coldness.

Lin Qingtong felt a little guilty under his gaze, so she quickly added something.

"I'm just stating the facts. We've only just started dating, so who can guarantee what will happen in the future?"

She never placed any expectations on anyone, after all, the only reliable person in the world is oneself.

Shen Tinghe's gaze darkened, and he stopped arguing with Lin Qingtong. Instead, he turned to look at Liu Tingyu in front of him.

"We had a minor disagreement a few days ago, I'm sorry you had to see that. Let's talk about cooperation first."

She spoke clearly and logically, and Liu Tingyu couldn't help but glance at Shen Tinghe again before her gaze fell on Lin Qingtong.

"That's right, let's talk about cooperation first."

So Lin Qingtong put aside her thoughts and seriously discussed the cooperation with Liu Tingyu.

The collaboration went very smoothly, and no one caused any trouble.

Lin Qingtong frowned slightly. She felt that something was not quite right. After all, Lin Jiaorui was not someone who gave up so easily.

Just then, Geng Xiangmei rushed in.

"Oh no! Celebrity Home Furnishings just announced a collaboration with Liu Qingfeng."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingtong frowned even more deeply.

Who is Liu Qingfeng?

Liu Tingyu's expression suddenly changed, and she gritted her teeth and uttered a sentence.

"She is my biological sister."

Lin Qingtong was stunned for a moment and hadn't reacted when she heard her next sentence.

"But she was also the murderer of my parents."

Lin Qingtong gasped, her gaze turning to Liu Tingyu with concern.

"Why don't you rest for a while? I can go and gather some information first."

Liu Tingyu forced a smile and waved his hand.

"It's okay, I can handle it myself. Bring me the contract and I'll sign it."

Shen Tinghe handed her the contract. Her fingers trembled as she held the pen, and her eyes gradually filled with bloodshot blood and tears, surging with intense hatred.

She had no idea where to start, and Lin Qingtong sighed inwardly when she saw this.

"It's okay, you can come and sign when you're ready. If there's anything you're unhappy about, you can tell me what's going on."

Liu Qinyu then put down her pen, slumped into her chair, and recounted everything in a deep and thoughtful manner.

It turns out that Liu Qingfeng is Liu Tingyu's twin sister, but she was kidnapped due to an accident at birth. As a result, she grew up being pampered and loved, while her sister suffered greatly.

When the younger sister grew up, she found her way back on her own, but it was from that time that her family began to undergo tremendous changes.

While her parents' company ran into trouble and she even died from a serious illness, Liu Qingfeng's life got better and better, and she even married into a wealthy family.

As for the wealthy husband she married into, he was Liu Tingyu's previous fiancé.

They had three sons and one daughter and lived a happy and fulfilling life, while Liu Tingyu remained unmarried until she was over forty.

Although Liu Tingyu wanted to let go of everything, she never expected that Liu Qingfeng would suddenly appear in her field of vision.

Moreover, they are collaborating with their rivals, acting as their spokespeople.

Liu Tingyu would never believe that she wasn't after him.

Upon hearing about Liu Tingyu's experience, Lin Qingtong immediately felt a deep empathy, even though they had different experiences. Lin Jiaorui was her half-sister.

For a moment, Lin Qingtong was actually afraid, afraid that she would encounter such a thing in the future, and even more afraid that something would happen to her mother.

But she quickly concealed these emotions and looked at Liu Tingyu with concern.

"Do you need me to send you away?"

Liu Tingyu is in a bad mood and there's no way she'll sign the contract. So Lin Qingtong has no choice but to arrange a car to take her out of the company.

As a result, they had not gone far when Lin Jiaorui walked towards them, accompanied by a beautiful and charming noblewoman.

The noblewoman scoffed when she saw Liu Tingyu.

"I never imagined that my sister would end up like this, endorsing an unknown brand."

Liu Tingyu's face was slightly pale, and she didn't want to talk to her. Instead, she looked at Lin Qingtong and made a request.

"Can I leave now?"

Lin Qingtong nodded and, supporting Liu Tingyu, was about to walk around Lin Jiaorui and the others.

As a result, Lin Jiaorui grabbed Lin Qingtong and spoke with a sarcastic tone.

"I never thought that the woman of the dignified Ninth Master Shen would be afraid and would back down when she sees me. But then again, you will have to call me an elder from now on."

She puffed out her belly, looking quite smug.

Lin Qingtong was only concerned about Liu Tingyu and didn't care about Lin Jiaorui's words at all, only coldly uttering a sentence.

"Get out of the way."

But the more she did this, the less Lin Jiaorui would move aside; instead, she reached out to push Lin Qingtong away.

"In your current state, you still dare to talk back to me? I could kill you in a second, you know that?"

Before Lin Qingtong could speak, a cold and domineering voice rang out.

"I'd like to see who dares to take my woman's life."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaorui looked behind her and saw Shen Tinghe striding towards her with his long legs, exuding a chilling aura.

For a moment, she almost stopped breathing.

Shen Tinghe walked straight to Lin Qingtong's side, lowered his eyes, and spoke gently.

Are you alright?

Lin Qingtong shook her head slightly: "It's nothing, I just don't want to listen to some chattering crows."

Shen Tinghe didn't even glance at Lin Jiaorui, and directly gave instructions to the bodyguards.

"Didn't you hear? Madam said she doesn't want to see them."

Several bodyguards then threw the pregnant Lin Jiaorui and Liu Qingfeng out of the company.

The sun was scorching hot outside, and there were quite a few pedestrians watching the spectacle.

Lin Jiaorui was so angry that she cursed loudly: "Are you crazy? How dare you lay a hand on me? I'm your future sister-in-law!"

Shen Tinghe let out a mocking laugh through the door.

"I don't know where this crow came from, it actually wants to take my second sister-in-law's place."

"You're nothing but a mistress, a disgrace to the world. How dare you come here? Believe me, I can make sure you get dumped by Master Shen in no time."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Jiaorui felt a sense of fear for some reason. She knew that Shen Tinghe was capable of doing such a thing.

Lin Jiaorui was so angry that her face turned ashen, but she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal and could only turn and leave.

Lin Qingtong looked in the direction Lin Jiaorui and the others had left, then helped Liu Tingyu into the car and drove away.

As the vehicle drove further away, Liu Tingyu finally felt a little better and thanked them with red eyes.

"Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I don't know how sad I would be today."

“She flaunted everything she had in front of me before, and I almost died at her hands. Luckily, my assistant saved me.”

"But it is precisely because of this that some aftereffects have been left behind."

She wanted to continue explaining, but Lin Qingtong patted her shoulder and spoke softly.

I understand.
