She—the hidden heiress of the Shen family, had long resided abroad with her aunt.
He—the sole heir of the Ning family, burdened with heavy responsibilities yet indulging in endless play, idle...
Shen Lu felt extremely heartbroken when he saw Shen Yueyan like this. When had her Xiaoyan ever been like this...
She held back the tears that were about to burst out and reached out to wipe away the tear marks on Shen Yueyan's face.
Shen Yueyan couldn't help it. She stared at her aunt in front of her blankly, and finally threw herself into her arms and burst into tears.
She felt so uncomfortable. Her mind was filled with Ning Yifan's heartless smile and all the beautiful memories between them. They were so beautiful, but why did her heart feel like it was being stabbed back and forth by a sharp knife when she thought of them? The pain went deep into her heart and made her heartbroken.
She roared and vented wildly, tears washing over her features. She wanted to drive away all the heartache, but they showed no signs of leaving, as if they were setting up camp here.
Chen Lu just held her in his arms, not saying a word, and cried with her.
As Shen Yueyan was crying, her eyes accidentally glanced at the tombstone she was carrying with her.
She paused, and her crying stopped abruptly.
She stared at the two tombstones for a long time, and in a trance, she seemed to see her father and mother...
Mom and Dad were playing with her on a piece of grass. Dad was still as handsome as ever, Mom was still as elegant and generous as ever, and she was still that little princess.
In the sunshine, on the grass, the three of them ran, laughed, and made noises, expressing their love for each other.
Five years later, she saw her parents again, albeit in an illusion.
Slowly, the excited heart calmed down.
But not far away, there was a figure silently watching her. She looked at him and slowly walked closer. His outline gradually became clearer, but she found that it was him...
He was waving at her, smiling as brightly as always, but as she got closer, his figure gradually faded away, until finally, when she got close, he had already disappeared.
She slowly stood up, wiped the tears from her face, looked at the two tombstones, and held them in her arms.
Shen Lu gently stroked Shen Yueyan’s haggard little face, rubbing it with his thumb: “Xiaoyan, do you want to continue?”
Shen Yueyan looked down at her arms and nodded.
"I know you're in pain, so the choice is yours. No matter what you choose, Auntie and Uncle Li will support you."
"Don't worry, Auntie. I won't let our five years of hard work go to waste. The plan will continue!"
She had sacrificed too much for this plan. The three of them had endured five years of hardship in the enemy camp, and the pain they had endured during that time was self-evident. Now, all their efforts were about to be rewarded, and she would not allow any accidents to happen, including to herself...
She took a deep breath and tried to force a smile: "Auntie, I'm hungry, let's eat!"
After the meal, the three of them sorted out the shares they had acquired in the past few days, as well as all the shares they had held in Ning's company over the past five years.
I found that I still have a long way to go to surpass Ning Changyuan.
At this time, Shen Yueyan took out a contract from her bag.
"I still have some here." Her expression was indifferent, as if this was a piece of insignificant white paper. Little did she know that this was the [Share Transfer Agreement] she had tricked Ning Yifan into signing one night after getting him drunk...
"Share transfer agreement?" Shen Lu and Li Kun exclaimed.
Shen Yueyan's face was pale and her tone was as indifferent as before: "Ning Yifan has 10% of the shares in Ning's. Adding him in will help us a lot."
The coldness of her words and the indifference of her expression made it impossible to imagine that the person she was talking about was the person she had slept with for five years.
But, there’s still a little bit to go.
Shen Lu took action and took out three share transfer agreements from the bedroom and placed them in front of the two of them.
"Auntie, this is..."
"This is the agreement I asked the three directors of Ning's to sign. With the three of them, there should be no problem."
"But how could they agree?"
Shen Lu smiled faintly: "Over the years, I have figured out the details of the Ning's internal directors. Few of them are clean, but the problems of these three are more serious. I induced them a little and then offered a high price to buy them. For their future, they had to sign."
Now, the shares under the name of the mysterious man "S" have exceeded those of Ning Changyuan.
