It is said that he built a castle, the greatest in the world, called "Eternal Peace." Later, I heard that he finally left Chang'an for good. It took four whole years to understand that the so-called eternal peace is actually a place I've never been to... Qin Yan: May there be no years to look back on, and only the deep companionship of life remaining. Nán Sīchén: Actually, I've always remembered it. I remember the first time we met. How to make friends with someone you have a crush on at first sight. That day, that year, the beads were lost, at a glance, it was to take refuge in you. *The Qin family's banquet hall was brightly lit, with guests filling every seat. In stark contrast to the darkness outside, the brilliant lights illuminated the gold and silver-trimmed decorations. The entire hall seemed draped in a golden glow. Fragrances waft back and forth, carrying with them a gentle breeze. The scent of wine blends with the fragrance of rouge, creating an atmosphere of luxurious decadence. Today is Li Yueyi and Qin Muyang's wedding day, but Qin Yan just sits trembling on the bench in the garden, unable to believe how things turned out like this. Li Yueyi is always so kind and gentle, she's just lovely. Even her aura is pure and innocent. That's why she agreed to marry her father. It has been two years since Li Yueyi’s mother passed away. She moved into the Qin family over a year ago and has never spoken loudly, treating them even better than her own son, Qin Han. But just now I heard the conversation between Li Yuyi and Qin Han, it seems that mother's death is related to their mother. Li Yueyi wants Qin Han to work at RM Group after his internship, so she is now trying to win over some people in RM Group. At the time, I didn't think much of it, after all, it was only natural for a mother to make provisions for her child. But later on, I unexpectedly heard them mention my mother. She also brought up the procurement matters her mother had handled before. Hearing Li Yueyi say, “Hanhan, if you enter RM Group, you must go to the finance department. There is an account from the procurement department there. You help your mother settle it. It was Zhao Xingyuan’s account back then. After she jumped off a building and committed suicide, your mother thought everything was settled. Unexpectedly, something happened again. Now someone wants to check that account. You must dispose of it as soon as possible, understand?” When I heard this, I simply couldn't believe it. Could Li Yueyi have also been involved in the procurement case my mother handled back then? The way they phrased it sounded like those problematic procurement accounts were fabricated. Is it intentional or unintentional? Qin Yan was just thinking when she heard Qin Han speak, "Mom~ that case is over, right? Why are you bringing it up again? You're married to Dad now. Anyway, the person is dead, what else can happen?" Now I understand, it turns out that my mother's death was entirely caused by this pair. To think they pretended to be good people, with the stepmother acting as a kind person and treating Qin Han as her own sister, confiding in her about everything. But what can be done now that I know? Dad has already married Li Yueyi. Qin Yan sat on the cold stage, her entire being enveloped in an extreme state of sorrow. A palpable grief emanated from her, impossible to ignore. In the distance, faint sparks flickered, as if someone was smoking there. Soon that person walked over, and in the light spilling from the banquet hall, they were clearly visible. Nan Si Chen. They grew up together since childhood, but they didn't know each other. His family, the powerful Southern Family, resided in Jiang City, while the Qin Family was just a small business family. How could they possibly have known each other? |
