If this relationship was called friendship, who would believe it?
Mo Dayun hurried here, partly to seek an explanation and get some titles for the deceased Zhao Tianjie, and partly to take advantage.
With Zhao Tianjie dead, Zhongcheng Hall completely lost its power, and Mo Dayun, as his old friend, naturally wanted to take the first bite.
So upon hearing about this matter, he immediately took a special plane with over 50 subordinates and went straight to Zhongcheng Hall.
Amongst his subordinates, over 30 were professional asset appraisers.
He wanted to seize Zhongcheng Hall’s most valuable assets before others.
However, at this moment, Mo Dayun’s thoughts changed.
Although Zhao Tianjie was gone, there was suddenly a Zhao Weinan.
No king in the mountain; the once world-famous Zhongcheng Hall now had to rely on the beauty plan, letting a woman take the position to preserve the clan, how ridiculous?
Yet even if Mo Dayun was displeased, he could only silently get up and leave.
"Young Master Lin, though the scenery of Dragon Sleep River is nice, it can get boring after a while. How about coming to my Qiuyu Mountain for a visit sometime? Although it’s not as famous as Dragon Sleep River, it offers some unique views."
Mo Dayun hinted, raising his cup to drink the tea, then got up and left.
With Mo Dayun’s departure, many others also rose and left.
They were all eager to make a move on Zhongcheng Hall.
In the following days, Lin Beichen remained at Zhongcheng Hall.
During these days, many sought to meet Lin Beichen and hoped to talk to him.
However, upon learning that the woman beside Lin Beichen was from Zhongcheng Hall, they immediately stood up and left.
In just a few days, Lin Beichen had met with more than 30 families.
Lin Beichen was not tired, but Zhao Weinan, being a delicate woman, found the intense meetings overwhelming, even just standing by Lin Beichen without speaking stressed her.
That day, after the crowd left, Zhao Weinan suddenly knelt on the ground.
"Lin Beichen, do you know? The family feels like it’s nearing its end these days, but for me, these are the best days of my life..."
Zhao Weinan looked at Lin Beichen, her beautiful eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Every time I came to this house before, clan members would criticize me endlessly, finding 180 faults in how I dressed, and they felt like turning me into a puppet with no own thoughts!"
"And now, they are using every means to please me. The luxurious jewelry I hadn’t seen before, they moved box by box into my room.
Last night, my father inexplicably received a call, becoming a major director of Zhongchengguan Mining Group.
My mother, just an ordinary teacher, unexpectedly got named to manage several educational funds today."
As Zhao Weinan spoke, she became increasingly excited, a thread of madness appearing on her delicate face.
"Isn’t this life good?"
Lin Beichen said blandly.
Zhao Weinan stared at Lin Beichen dazedly, suddenly calming down, her eyes seemed to glow with golden light.
"Lin Beichen, don’t you understand? All this is because of you!
Because you always keep me by your side, making them think I am your wife, they flatter me like this.
But I know, I am not worthy, nothing actually happened between us..."
Zhao Weinan spoke dazedly.
The first time she met, she disliked this young man for not understanding rules, being unreasonable, always messing around.
The second time, she thought he was deliberately stalking, feeling more disgusted.
By the third meeting, she had become this young man’s maid.
And now?
He is the sky.
And she, just a weak woman looking up at the sky.
"Why need to have a relationship, do you think I can’t protect you?"
