Lin Tingfeng finally pulled his thoughts back from their flight, looking longingly at Ye Wenyu, and said to her, "Xiaoyu, let me deal with those troubling matters first, then we can sit down and have a proper talk." Their future was something they needed to discuss and plan together, but right now his life was a tangled mess, and he had to face it head-on, clear away the fog, and make everything clear.

He needs to take back the Lin Group. If the group falls into the hands of those two wealthy mother and daughter who only know how to buy, it will only go bankrupt.

Ye Wenyu smiled and nodded again. She could feel Lin Tingfeng's deep love and sincere intentions; he was determined to have a tomorrow with her and to promise her a future. Waves of warmth washed over her. It felt so good to be loved sincerely by someone.

Lin Tingfeng said to her, "You must believe me and wait for me!" He looked at her, his eyes filled with a gentle light.

Ye Wenyu smiled again, her nose tingling slightly. The feeling was like returning home on a snowy day and seeing the streetlights, a warmth and comfort filling her heart with hope. She thought to herself, "Tingfeng, don't worry. This time, I will never doubt you, distrust you, or be wary of you like before. I made a mistake once, but I won't make the same mistake again."

She nodded, knowing that a storm was about to break. Lin Tingfeng, now healthy, would definitely target Lin Tingyue and Cai Wenchuan. She gazed at him and pleaded, "Promise me you will be a good person and have a forgiving heart."

Lin Tingfeng gazed at Ye Wenyu with deep affection, remained silent for a few seconds, and then nodded heavily. He would definitely keep his promise to her.

Ye Wenyu smiled.

She stretched out her arm, her face flushed, her big eyes sparkling, and looked at Lin Tingfeng.

Lin Tingfeng looked at her, puzzled, wanting to believe her yet hesitant to. His heart pounded wildly, as if a nest of rabbits were living in his chest.

Ye Wenyu blushed and whispered, "Can I have a hug?" Her voice was as soft as a hair, but Lin Tingfeng could hear it.

"sure!"

Overjoyed, Lin Tingfeng reached out and hugged Ye Wenyu tightly. The soft, fragrant body within him felt like a garden in springtime.

He lowered his head and kissed Ye Wenyu's hair tenderly. He thought to himself that he had never intended to be a good person, because from childhood he knew that to defeat an enemy, he had to be more ruthless than the enemy.

But now, he has decided to take a roundabout and safe approach, so that he can be safe and Xiaoyu can have a bright future.

In order to give her a future, he decided to change himself.

Therefore, he looked at her and said earnestly, "Xiaoyu, don't worry, for your sake, I will be a good person." He used to be full of violence and murderous intent, but from this moment on, he would become gentle and tolerant. He would be much more peaceful towards others and the world, because after all, God had been kind to him and gave him Ye Wenyu.

Ye Wenyu hugged Lin Tingfeng tightly and softly hummed in his arms.

Lin Tingfeng, afraid that she would worry, continued earnestly, "I promise I won't do anything crooked or illegal, okay?"

"Okay!" Ye Wenyu lifted her head in his arms and smiled happily.

Lin Tingfeng smiled and kissed her on the cheek. The air seemed to hold threads of sugar; everything was as beautiful as a fairytale.

Ye Wenyu's face turned even redder, like a cherry in spring.

Lin Tingfeng released her hand, letting her out of his embrace, and then got out of the car himself to open the door for her and help her out.

Then, as she left, he stood there watching her until her figure disappeared around the corner of the school road. Only then did he come to his senses, get back into his car, and sit there in contemplation for a while with a slight smile on his face before driving away.

However, although Lin Tingfeng promised to be a good person for Ye Wenyu's sake and to treat Cai Wenchuan and Lin Tingyue with tolerance, they did not give him the chance.

Since Zhang Yingzi ousted Lin Tingfeng from the Lin Group at the shareholders' meeting and stripped him of his position as president of the Lin Group, Lin Tingfeng has become a complete idler. He moved out of the president's office and did not go to the group for more than ten days without anyone paying attention to him. He can no longer be considered an employee of the Lin Group, but only a shareholder holding shares in the Lin Ting Group. When he was the president of the Lin Group, he was surrounded by a large group of people every day, fawning over him. They sought him out like stars around the moon, birds fawning over phoenixes, considering it an honor to know him. But after he stepped down from his position, he became deserted. He was diagnosed with cancer and underwent surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Not a single former employee or colleague came to visit him, as if he were already dead, no longer living in this world. Sometimes, because none of his former acquaintances showed up, Lin Tingfeng really suspected that he was dead, only he himself was unaware. Perhaps he was in a car accident on one of his journeys and died, and everyone outside knew except him. If Ye Wenyu hadn't taken the initiative to appear and care for him so much, taking him for checkups, accompanying him to his hospital appointments and surgeries, waiting for him outside the operating room, and staying by his bedside to take care of him after his surgery, he would have really suspected that he was no longer in this world.

People leave and the tea grows cold; when the wall falls, everyone pushes it down; when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.

Apart from the one-third of the shares he held that he couldn't keep his word about, he had nothing left.

It would be virtually impossible to find former colleagues, employees, and friends to help him make a comeback.

Lin Tingfeng picked up his phone, opened his contacts, and dialed several numbers. These were all friends who had called him brothers when he was in power. However, none of them answered the phone, giving him no chance to speak.

After making a few such calls, Lin Tingfeng simply gave up on contacting his former friends. He thought to himself, now that Zhang Yingzi was in control of the Lin Group, everyone was eager to distance themselves from him and sever ties; how could anyone possibly help him?

Therefore, this road is blocked.

Comparing the two, he felt even more that Ye Wenyu was precious. She was the only girl who stood on the opposite side of worldly conventions and appeared by his side when he was down on his luck.

After leaving the Lin Group, only Ye Wenyu cared about him.

After being diagnosed with cancer, Lin Tingfeng underwent surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, spending a considerable amount of money. Now that he has recovered his health, he is considering how to take back the Lin Group.

But he found that he had almost no idea where to start!

People used to refuse to contact him, but now the Lin Group is like an iron barrel, completely leak-proof.

After thinking it over for several days, Lin Tingfeng finally decided to go find Cai Wenchuan. He had heard that Cai Wenchuan and Lin Tingyue had gotten married, and he wondered if Cai Wenchuan was happy after marriage.

Perhaps, he is the only breakthrough.

Having made up his mind, Lin Tingfeng began to take action. One morning, he drove to Q University and inquired around. Cai Wenchuan was a well-known young and promising professor at Q University, so it was easy to find his address. Lin Tingfeng found Cai Wenchuan's office and waited for him in his office chair. Knowing that Cai Wenchuan held such a high position at Q University, Lin Tingfeng was quite impressed with him.
