Chapter 30: Past Events
In the end, Liang Lisheng only agreed to give Zhao Xinzhi 3% of Zhaoshi Group's shares, and he could sell 6% of Liang Group's shares to Zhao Xinzhi, at a price 25% lower than the market price. Zhao Xinzhi deliberately made the conditions harsh to see where his bottom line was. Seeing his compromise, he knew his bottom line was still low.
Zhao Xinzhi and Liang Lisheng's father had a true brotherly friendship, but after his father died, Zhao Xinzhi had no feelings for him at all.
When Zhao Pengnian learned that he was going to marry someone else, he realized that since his grandfather agreed, he must have gotten a big piece of fat meat. Liang Yilin's sudden disappearance disrupted his plan, and the marriage with the Liang family became an irreversible fact.
But despite this, he did not want to be a pawn at the mercy of others. Since it was a marriage alliance and he was using marriage as a bargaining chip, he had to hold the benefits in his hands. He bit off a piece of fat from Zhao Xinzhi's mouth, taking away 1% of the shares of Zhaoshi Group and 4% of the shares of Liang Group.
He even took this opportunity to intervene in the Liang Group, and was faster than Zhao Xinzhi in changing the flag of the Liang Group and taking it into his possession.
No one paid attention to Yu Yin's wishes from beginning to end.

When Yu Yin came downstairs, she saw Ms. Jiang scolding Liang Zexian. She stopped when she saw Yu Yin and asked, "Are you leaving?"
"Well, I won't bother you anymore."
Liang Zexian called out in a friendly tone, "Yu Yin."
A kind smile appeared on his originally gloomy face, which was completely inconsistent with his arrogant temperament.
Ms. Jiang and Yu Yin both wondered what was wrong with him and whether he had taken the wrong medicine.
Yu Yin and Ms. Jiang got along very unfamiliarly and politely. When they first met, Ms. Jiang's attitude was very similar to Liang Lisheng in the study. She did not avoid the slap from Ms. Jiang at that time, and the pain was deeply memorable.
When Yu Yin thought of this, he couldn't help but recall what happened back then.
Back then, Liang Lisheng was very kind when he first came into contact with Yu Yin, as if he was a loving father who loved his children very much, but she still resisted him, thinking that he suddenly came to her with ulterior motives, and that he had no fatherly love for her, only exploitation.
Yu Yin remembered that he asked her about the jade pendant during a lecture in college, and felt that he must have known of her existence at that time, but he did not recognize her. He only remembered her when she became useful.
When Liang Lisheng revealed his true purpose for the first time, Yu Yin did not agree, and she did not agree two or three times.
Ms. Jiang's appearance in front of her completely disrupted the situation and made her even more disgusted with this marriage.
When she first met Jiang, she felt morally inferior, and she was powerless to avoid the slap. She was the product of an extramarital affair, something she couldn't face publicly. To this day, she's looked down upon because of this identity.
If she had a choice, Yu Yin would still like to be the girl from the fishing village who changed her destiny through studying. Everything was earned through her fair and honest efforts.
Ms. Jiang told Yu Yin some past events. It turned out that Liang Lisheng knew about her existence shortly after she was born. He had grown tired of his lover and separated from her, without any unavoidable reasons. He didn't want his daughter, so his lover threw her into the trash and left her to die.
Yu Yin thought that she was abandoned and was a child that neither her biological parents wanted, but when the truth was really laid out before her, she still found it hard to bear.
Some say she is aloof and doesn't know the joy of becoming a superior person overnight. Or maybe she has a strong sense of self-esteem, but Yu Yin doesn't want to agree to get married, nor does she want to recognize Liang Lisheng as her father.
At that time, Yu Yin's life had gradually returned to normal, peaceful and stable. She had a good job and was independent. She no longer had to rely on anyone and did not have to worry about being abandoned. Her dreams had come true.
It was Liang Lisheng who disrupted her originally peaceful life.
Yu Yin felt like a commodity, being measured by others. Perhaps she was even less than a commodity, merely the decorative wrapping paper surrounding the commodity, at the mercy of others. Once the commodity was in their hands, this wrapping paper would be torn apart and thrown into the trash, just like her biological mother, who, after receiving the money, discarded her without recognition and value, without hesitation threw her away.
Yu Yin refused to enter into a marriage without dignity, not to marry a stranger and face the prospect of being abandoned at any moment. She had already been abandoned by her biological parents for over twenty years. After learning she wasn't their biological child, she worried constantly that they would abandon her if she became useless and incompetent, unable to study. This fear caused her grades to drop during her senior year of high school, leading to a mental breakdown.
She didn't want to be abandoned again, and didn't want to be immersed in the pain of fear of being abandoned day and night. She was fed up with this kind of life.
However, Yu Yin's resistance was met with fierce criticism from Liang Lisheng.
She was fired from her job and sued for leaking trade secrets. She lost all her money and still owed money. She was blacklisted in the industry and wanted to change careers, but because of the Liang family's obstruction, she couldn't find a suitable job, had no money, and no place to live.
Yu Yin could only do part-time labor. She wanted a decent job, but it was impossible because the Liang family was watching. She wanted to stay at her sister's house for a while, but she found out that her sister and brother-in-law had been fired from the factory and were struggling to make ends meet. Her sister was pregnant at the time.
Yu Yin felt extremely guilty because she was the one who had implicated them, so she gave up the idea of looking for Xiang Yue and Mo Qianyao.
Later, bad news came from his hometown: his adoptive father had hit someone and crippled them. But Yu Yin knew it was blackmail. Family members came to his house every day to cause trouble, and his adoptive father's legs were even injured.
Yu Yin faced the reality and knew that she could not fight against Liang Lisheng, so she finally took the initiative to contact him, called him dad for the first time, and said that she agreed to get married.
Everything that happened to his adoptive parents, sister and brother-in-law came to an end, and the troubles that Yu Yin had gotten into were also resolved.
Yu Yin felt that her adoptive parents had raised her for so many years, provided her with food, clothing, and education, and her sister had been good to her. They did not get much in return for adopting her, but instead caused trouble. She could not be ungrateful and act only according to her own wishes.
Liang Lisheng controlled the Yu family and also grasped Yu Yin's weakness. She obeyed his orders and provided him with information and help.
Although Yu Yin's spine was broken, she didn't want to be Liang Lisheng's puppet forever. Later, she found that Zhao Shunian could defeat him.
Yu Yin had become flexible by then. He who knows the current situation is a hero. This was a profound lesson Liang Lisheng taught her. She switched sides to Zhao Shunian's side, trying to please him and use his strength to her advantage.
Gradually, she discovered that Zhao Shunian was somewhat indulgent towards her. She tested him little by little, and retreated when she stepped on his line. After finding the law of survival, she lived a comfortable and free life, and became much more lively.
Life is short, and she has experienced so much. Why should she watch others enjoy themselves while she indulges in self-pity and ignores the life in front of her? If so, she will be completely defeated and gain nothing.
