Chapter 181 – My Son is Not Mine (part 15)

Liu Tingting sent Yun Yi back to the ward. Grandma Yun looked ashamed when she saw Liu Tingting.

Liu Tingting was a little confused. What happened? She looked at the nurse standing next to her.

The nurse smiled and whispered what happened in Liu Tingting's ear.

Liu Tingting glanced at the old man, who seemed to be subtly looking in her direction, and said loudly on purpose, "Grandma Yun, don't worry. We have seen this kind of situation a lot. Every day there are many letters asking for help from our foundation. We go through layers of screening and verification before we choose who to help."

"Is it really okay?" Grandma Yun asked a little more relieved.

Liu Tingting comforted her again. "It's okay. Don't worry. Our chairman's money is not spent frivolously. We do charity, and we will only help those who really need help. We will not let everyone's love be betrayed."

"Well said!" Others in the ward applauded.

Before that, the young girl who had stayed in the ward for a long time thought about something for a long time. She then finally walked up to Liu Tingting and said, "Hello, my name is Chen Yu. Is your foundation still recruiting? I want to join you. I graduated from **University. I passed CET-6 in English, and scored 101 in TOEFL. I just got this driver's license this year."

"Do you intend to work at our foundation? Does your family support this?" Liu Tingting saw that the other party was well-dressed. It seemed that she had an extraordinary family background. Would her family agree?

Chen Yu looked back at her grandma, and her grandma nodded at her. "My grandma agrees, and everyone else will agree."

Grandma Chen said with a smile, "Our family is very open-minded. We don't have any other requirements for her. She just needs to be happy. Before she was all about studying abroad. We let her go. Now she has changed her mind and wants to work in China. This could not be better."

It was precisely because the Chen family had such an open education model that after Chen Yu graduated from university, she was confused for a long time and didn't know what to do. Since she didn't know what she wanted to do, she chose to study abroad to continue her studies. But today, she suddenly changed her mind.

"That's great, our foundation lacks talents like you, Chen Yu. I'll give you a business card with an address and phone number on it. Come at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. Our vice-chairman will have an interview. If you pass the interview, then you can work for us. Let me tell you, our foundation pays very well," Liu Tingting said with a smile.

Grandma Yun was relieved when she saw this. She then looked at her granddaughter, who was sitting quietly on the side. "How about you, Yiyi? Will you go to work at the foundation in the future?"

Yun Yi didn't speak. She just smiled. She didn't want to think about things that were so far in the future right now. All she had to do now was study hard. Older sister is so good and so was Secretary Wang. She also had to work hard to become better.

However, if she really had to choose, she would choose to go to Feiteng International to work first. Auntie had invested so much in her, and she wanted to earn it back for auntie. After all, it took a lot of money to do charity. When she was old and couldn't work anymore, she would go to work at the foundation and use her remaining energy.

However, Yun Yi would not tell anyone about these careful thoughts.

Grandma Yun's operation went very smoothly and her recovery after surgery was also good. The doctors and nurses were very caring. The nurses were very attentive and took care of her in every possible way.

After she discussed things with Grandma Yun, Yun Yi decided to go back first. She couldn't help much by staying here, and she was wasting money.

Yun Yi thought about not staying in a hotel and just laying on the floor in the ward. Many families of the patients did this. But, auntie Li and older sister Tingting refused, saying that she was still young and they were afraid of her catching a cold.

Therefore, Yun Yi went back first.

Although Grandma Yun was reluctant, her granddaughter was right. "It's okay. Go back and study hard. Don't worry about grandma. Grandma is doing well."

Auntie Zhang, the nurse, said, "Yes, Yiyi. You don't need to worry. We will take good care of your grandma. The nursing home has also made arrangements, and we will take care of Grandma Yun. You have my WeChat so we can take videos for you when it's convenient."

Yun Yi nodded and bowed to Aunt Zhang. "Thank you, auntie!"

Before leaving, Yun Yi went to the foundation and found Chairman Wang. She offered to change the ten years in the agreement to twenty years.

Wang Wenying was stunned for a while. He then smiled. "The foundation provides you with only tuition and living expenses. The rest are the personal help provided by the chairman of the board. You don't need to do this."

Yun Yi said seriously, "I know. I will repay auntie Li's kindness in the future, but I can't make things difficult for you."

Wang Wenying glanced at Yun Yi approvingly. He understood a little why the chairman looked at Yun Yi differently. "Okay. Then I'll have someone redraft a supplementary agreement right away."

When Li Su received the call from Wang Wenying, she was very happy and looked at Lin Jihao with a sullen expression.

Lin Jihao was a little uncomfortable with the way Li Su was looking at him. "What's the matter? Isn't it only right to repay the gratitude? Why are you so happy?"

Li Su gave Lin Jihao a steely look. Who was she doing this for? She really didn't understand him! Then, she glared at Lin Jihao, turned, and left the office.

Lin Jihao touched his nose. Did he say something wrong? It shouldn't be?

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, five years passed. Li Su just got off the plane and drove to ** University.

Yun Yi had just finished class, and she had no classes in the afternoon. She was going to go back to the dormitory to clean up, then go to the company to help. Although she was only a sophomore this year, since high school, she had been helping the company in her spare time. At first she knew nothing and could only do her best. Yun Yi was not in a hurry, so she just learned slowly.

"Yiyi! Get in the car!"

Yun Yi heard a familiar voice. She looked up and smiled immediately. "Auntie!" She once thought of calling auntie Li as older sister Li, just like older sister Tingting and the others since it would make her seem closer. She just didn't know why auntie Li insisted on being called auntie, saying that she couldn't mess up the generations.

Yun Yi didn't understand what she meant at first, but recently, she seemed to slowly understand something.

Yun Yi skipped all the way into the car. "Auntie, when did you come back?"

"I just got off the plane. I came to pick you up and have a meal with you. Here!" Li Su handed Yun Yi a box.

"What is this?"

"It's a birthday gift! I reserved a box in Lanyue. Tingting went to the nursing home to pick up your grandma," Li Su said.

Yun Yi's eyes prickled a little. Before she was fifteen years old, she never had a birthday. But from fifteen onwards, all these regrets were filled. She was very happy.

"Auntie!" Yun Yi subconsciously said coquettishly.

"Do you feel very moved? Moved enough to promise yourself to me? Haha, if auntie hadn't promised my husband that I would be faithful to him, then maybe auntie would really have a forbidden love with you. Just thinking about it is exciting." Li Su was joking.

Yun Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said angrily, "Auntie!"

"I'm joking with you. You are not allowed to tell that old antique, Lin Jihao, what I said just now! I don't know what's going on with him. The older he got, the weirder he became. He wasn't like this when he was a child!" Li Su muttered while driving.

Yun Yi wanted to laugh again. Auntie's words reminded her of the battle of wits and courage between auntie and Lin Jihao in recent years. With the passage of time, Lin Jihao had become more sophisticated and mature, and auntie always thought that he was boring. Auntie was always worried that he would not find a girlfriend in the future, and was dedicated to making him change. It was a pity that auntie was rarely successful.

"Will the chairman also come? Didn't he go on a business trip to country D?" Yun Yi whispered, with a shyness and a touch of sweetness in her voice that she hadn't noticed herself.

Although Yun Yi's voice was small, Li Su heard it. She snickered to herself. Through her observations over the past few years, Li Su was sure that the current Lin Jihao and Yun Yi should have a good impression of each other. Moreover, Lin Jihao and Yun Yi had a better understanding of each other and a deeper emotional foundation in this life. Coupled with her observation from the side, there should be no reasons to break up!

As for the male lead, it was okay to be on good terms with each other!

Lin Jihao looked a little unnaturally at the bunch of flowers on the chair. He didn't understand why he had to give flowers on her birthday. Wouldn't it be fine to give gifts? However, this was what his stepmother had told him many times. Lin Jihao thought about it, then ordered flowers according to his stepmother's wishes.

As soon as Li Su and Yun Yi entered the door, they saw the bouquet of hyacinths.

Li Su glared at Lin Jihao. Why was he sending hyacinths?! Roses, lilies, lavender, forget-me-nots were all good.

Lin Jihao stood up and handed the bunch of hyacinths to Yun Yi. "Happy birthday!"

"Thank you!" Yun Yi blushed slightly and took the flowers.

"The meaning of hyacinth is to live passionately and enjoy a happy life! I think it suits you very well!" Lin Jihao looked down at Yun Yi.

Li Su's eyes were about to pop out next to him, so he quickly took out his mobile phone to check on what he said. Hyacinths really had this meaning. It seems that she was ignorant.

Yun Yi really liked them. "Living passionately and enjoying a happy life!" She couldn't help but look up at Lin Jihao.

Lin Jihao looked at her beautiful face, and his heart fluttered.

Li Su quickly turned on her camera and captured this scene.

The sound of the shutter broke them out of their stupor. Yun Yi lowered her head in embarrassment while Lin Jihao gave Li Su a helpless look. What was his stepmother doing?

At this moment, Liu Tingting's cheerful voice came from outside the door. "Here we are, grandma. Let's go in!"

The arrival of Liu Tingting and Grandma Yun broke the awkward atmosphere in the room. Yun Yi quickly greeted them. "Grandma, you're here!"

Yun Yi had a happy twentieth birthday, surrounded by her relatives, benefactors, friends, and people she adored. She closed her eyes and made her own birthday wish. She hoped she could stay like this forever.

Chapter 182 – My Son is Not MIne (part 16)

Lin Jihao had different feelings for Yun Yi. Lin Jihao knew that the feeling was probably love. Lin Jihao also knew that Yun Yi should have the same feelings for him. He was not an indecisive person, and the reason why he didn't clear this up was entirely because of Yun Yi.

Yun Yi was the first student funded by the Yuansu Foundation and the one who his stepmother devoted the most time and energy to. Yun Yi was a kind-hearted person, and she wouldn't dare to talk about her relationship until she had contributed to the company and had provided benefits. Lin Jihao was also afraid that Yun Yi would be gossiped about behind his back.

To love someone was to respect her. Therefore, Lin Jihao never spoke.

Of course, Lin Jihao had always been very confident. In his opinion, only he was the most suitable for Yun Yi.

But, beside Yun Yi, a man suddenly appeared, and he was a very attentive man.

"Yun Yi, are you finished with class? Are you hungry? I'll treat you to dinner!" Li Chaoyang shouted with a bright smile on his face.

Yun Yi felt a little helpless. "Thank you, but the last time was really nothing. There's no need to be so polite."

Li Chaoyang had already walked to Yun Yi's side. "How could I do that? It might not have been much for you, but for me, it was a life-saver. I have nothing to repay you with now, so I can only invite you to a meal to say thank you."

Yun Yi thought about it and felt a little helpless. "Okay, I'll just have one meal." She originally planned to go to the nursing home to eat with her grandmother, but now it seemed that she had no choice but to miss that appointment. Yun Yi took out her cell phone and called her grandma, saying that she couldn't accompany her to dinner.

Li Chaoyang took Yun Yi to a restaurant that looked good. "With my current ability, I can only invite you to eat here. When I make money in the future, I will invite you to a higher-end restaurant to eat!"

"There's no need! That time I helped you was really just a small thing. You don't have to take it to heart," Yun Yi said again.

In fact, her encounter with Li Chaoyang was really accidental. That day, she was visiting her grandmother at the nursing home. On the way back, she accidentally witnessed a car accident. The injured person in the car accident was Li Chaoyang. At that time, there was no one else on the side of the road, and the vehicle that caused the accident had immediately driven away after finding that there was no one around.

Yun Yi called medical services and the police. Together with medical aid, the injured were sent to the hospital and the medical expenses were paid in advance. As a witness, she had also memorised the licence plate number of the vehicle involved in the accident.

Because of the information provided by Yun Yi, the police quickly caught the perpetrator. Yun Yi didn't know what happened after.

She didn't expect that Li Chaoyang would suddenly appear. He wanted to not only return the medical expenses that Yun Yi had paid for that day, but also kept saying that he wanted to repay her life-saving grace. After that, Li Chaoyang appeared around her every day and was very attentive.

Yun Yi was a very smart person. She knew that Li Chaoyang seemed to be pursuing her, but she already had someone in her heart. Even if she didn't have someone she liked, she didn't want to talk about feelings for the time being. So, she had been avoiding Li Chaoyang.

But, Li Chaoyang was a persistent person.

"Yun Yi, you should know what I'm thinking. I like you. You are the kindest girl I have ever met. I know that I have nothing now, but I already have start-up capital. Next, I want to start my own business. Trust me. Give me a little time and I will definitely create a world for you!" Li Chaoyang said excitedly.

Yun Yi frowned. "I'm sorry. I don't want to talk about relationships right now."

"I know that you are a student sponsored by the Yuansu Foundation. You signed an agreement with the Yuansu Foundation. After graduation, you have to work at their company for ten years and you are not allowed to resign! This is basically an unfair clause! Don't worry, when I make money, I will ask the best lawyer to help you with the lawsuit. I will return all the money they have funded you over the years. This way, you won't be burdened!" Li Chaoyang had already inquired about this.

Yun Yi was a little unhappy. She sternly said, "You misunderstand. It is not because of this. I voluntarily signed that agreement, and it is not unfair. Also, I said that I don't want to talk about feelings now. It has nothing to do with this. To tell you the truth, I already have someone I like, but right now I am not qualified to stand by his side!"

Li Chaoyang looked like he didn't believe her. "Impossible. I've investigated it thoroughly. You don't have anyone you like! I know, it's a bit sudden for me to say this, and it's okay for you not to believe me, but I was just afraid of missing this opportunity as you are such a good girl. Yun Yi, I can wait. No matter how long it takes, I can wait."

Yun Yi was a little helpless. How could he not understand? "I didn't lie to you. I really have someone I like."

Li Chaoyang just didn't believe it.

Suddenly, a slightly urgent voice called out, "She does have someone she likes. It's me!"

Yun Yi raised her head in disbelief. "Why are you here?"

Lin Jihao took a deep breath and walked to Yun Yi's side. "Are you all right?"

Yun Yi felt a little dizzy and shook her head. "I'm fine."

It was fine. Lin Jihao was relieved, and then he looked at Li Chaoyang. "She didn't lie to you. She likes me and I like her too. The reason why I didn't make it clear is because I was afraid of delaying her studies and being criticized. Unexpectedly, you misunderstood."

Li Chaoyang recognized the other party at a glance. He often appeared on financial news. He was the president of Feiteng International. He looked at Lin Jihao and Yun Yi. "Impossible! How could you be together? Yun Yi, is it really him? Is he threatening you in return for his favor? That must be the case! The Yuansu Charity Fund is under the name of Feiteng International! You are so despicable!"

But Yun Yi couldn't help but say, "Don't talk nonsense! You can't slander the Yuansu Foundation, and you can't slander him! Without the foundation and auntie, I wouldn't be where I am today. I will repay their kindness. It doesn't matter who I like!"

Lin Jihao frowned and looked at Li Chaoyang. "Mr. Li, if there is no evidence, then don't open your mouth. Otherwise, you can wait for the lawyer's letter!"

Li Chaoyang still refused to believe that Yun Yi, who was such a kind and simple girl, would want to join a wealthy family due to greed and vanity. There must be some misunderstanding!

Yun Yi took a deep breath and said, "Let's stop here. I have already made everything clear. I have nothing to do with you, and I don't need to explain anything to you. We won't meet again in the future." After speaking, she pulled Lin Jihao out.

After leaving the restaurant, Yun Yi was calmed by the oncoming cold wind. She realised that she was still holding Lin Jihao's hand. She let go of his hand, lowered her head, and asked, "Why did you come here?"

"My mother called me. One of her best friends saw you and that Li Chaoyang went out for dinner and called to tell her. She called me again." Lin Jihao looked down at the hand Yun Yi had just held, as if her warmth remained.

"I'm sorry!" Yun Yi said, embarrassed. She lowered her head. She knew that auntie was in the United States now. Lin Jihao, who was busy with an acquisition recently, seemed to have not rested for a long time. But for her, he appeared here. Yun Yi didn't want to guess what it meant, and she didn't know how much Lin Jihao heard what she just said. She didn't dare to guess how Lin Jihao would react. How would she cope then?

"There's nothing to be sorry for. Have you eaten yet? Let's find a place to eat." Lin Jihao knew the burden on Yun Yi's heart, so he always respected Yun Yi's thoughts. He would not force her. He would wait until Yun Yi was willing.

Lin Jihao took Yun Yi to a nearby restaurant. During this period, Lin Jihao didn't mention the matter that just occurred, so Yun Yi was a little relieved.

After dinner, Lin Jihao drove Yun Yi back to school. "If he bothers you again, call me."

Yun Yi nodded. "I will. Drive carefully."

Lin Jihao nodded slightly, started the car, and suddenly remembered something. "I can wait."

Those words made Yun Yi's face brighten, and she felt as if there were thousands of fireworks bursting in her heart. He really understood.

Yun Yi suddenly wanted to cry. The person she liked happened to be the one who knew her the best. Was there anything more gratifying than this?

Yun Yi nodded solemnly. "Okay!"

Lin Jihao gave her a deep look, then drove away.

Yun Yi watched Lin Jihao leave, then turned around and walked to the school. She wiped her tears as she walked. Suddenly, a shadow appeared in front of her!

"You're crying. I guessed it correctly. He forced you, right? I know everything. Don't worry. I can't compete with him now, but one day, I will be better than him. I will be more successful and even more powerful. I will definitely save you! Wait for me!" After Li Chaoyang finished speaking, he suddenly hugged Yun Yi enthusiastically, then turned and left.

Yun Yi was caught off guard and was hugged by him. When she finally managed to process what just happened, she almost died of anger. But, Li Chaoyang had already left. Yun Yi stomped her feet angrily. Who did he think he was?!

This scene at the school gate was seen by many people. When they saw that Yun Yi was about to cry, some classmates who had a good relationship with Yun Yi rushed to ask what was going on.

Yun Yi briefly explained the matter.

People who had a good relationship with her knew about her. They knew that she was now an intern at Feiteng International, and she will work at Feiteng International after she graduated. Although some people would be envious, when they learned that Yun Yi could not change jobs or resign in the next 20 years, that envy disappeared. Twenty years was a long time in a person's life. Working in the same place for 20 years was scary to think about. Therefore, no one was envious.

"What! This man is too arrogant!"

"That's right, if he doesn't know anything, then he has a great imagination!"

"Yun Yi, be careful in the future. Don't meet him. This person probably has a problem with his brain."

Yun Yi and her classmates walked slowly to the school.

Over there, Lin Jihao returned to the company with a full face. "Secretary Wang, inform the others that the meeting will continue at one thirty in the afternoon."

Seeing him like this, Secretary Wang guessed something. "Okay, I'll let them know right away."

Lin Jihao suddenly remembered something and took out a box from his pocket. "I heard that you and your boyfriend are engaged next month. This is a gift. The car is parked in the parking lot B-2063 on the second floor."

Before Secretary Wang could speak, Lin Jihao had already left the office.

She opened the box. A Maserati? Her boss was so generous! It was really a shame! Secretary Wang, as Lin Jihao's assistant and secretary, was a few years older than Lin Jihao. She didn't have any ideas about Lin Jihao. Secretary Wang was a smart person. When she found that Lin Jihao didn't have any intentions towards her, she pulled away decisively.

But, sometimes, there would inevitably be some regrets in her heart.

Chapter 183 – My Son is Not Mine (part 17)

Lin Jihao and Yun Yi had a tacit understanding and left Li Chaoyang behind. Li Su was in a hurry. She was to fly back home the same day.

"Oh, this is a crucial situation. Why are you so unhurried!" Li Su heard that Lin Jihao was in the office and she came over.

"What's wrong?" Lin Jihao was looking at the acquisition plan. When he heard his stepmother's, he looked up at her.

"That Li Chaoyang… Why are you not in a hurry at all?!" Li Su was dying of anxiety! That was the male lead, the male lead who could make Lin Jihao's company go bankrupt!

Lin Jihao saw his stepmother's anxious pale face and sighed helplessly. He took out a document from the drawer and handed it to her.

Li Su grabbed it to take a look. The document detailed Li Chaoyang's life. It even included the fact that Li Chaoyang was abducted and sold.

"There's nothing to be afraid of!" Lin Jihao said without raising his head.

Li Su sighed. The current Li Chaoyang was nothing to be afraid of, but once he found out his background and returned to his family, he was a force to be reckoned with.

"Don't you think this Li Chaoyang looks familiar?" Li Su asked after flipping through the information. "I feel like I have seen him somewhere, especially when he looks seven or eight in the photos. I must have seen him somewhere."

Lin Jihao thought about it quickly, but had no impression whatsoever.

"Young Master Zhao! You forgot that my best friend named Tan Li… Her aunt is married to Young Master Zhao's cousin. I have seen photos of Young Master Zhao when he was a child on Tan Li's cell phone. He looked similar to when Li Chaoyang was seven or eight years old! I heard that the Zhao family also lost a child before," Li Su said.

There was such a thing? Lin Jihao thought about it. Their family was not on the same level as the Zhao family. He had never seen the photos of the Zhao family's young master! However, what happened to the Zhao family back then was not a secret in the circle. Mr. Zhao married two wives in succession. After Mr. Zhao and his ex-wife divorced, the ex-wife insisted on taking away the eldest son and went abroad. Mr. Zhao later married another, who gave birth to a son. The two sons were 5 or 6 years apart.

A few decades later, a high-speed railway was built in Mr. Zhao's hometown. The ancestral tomb was relocated. Mr. Zhao called both sons back to their hometown. The eldest son brought his wife and children back to China, and saw his half-brother was flourishing. Wherever he went, the local officials were very enthusiastic. He was involved in politics. In fact, he lived well abroad. When his parents divorced, Mr. Zhao had given him a lot of property.

Mr. Zhao was furious. He had changed his nationality to one of a foreign country. Now he wanted to enter politics. Wasn't that a joke! He didn't have any skills and hadn't graduated from university, so how could he get into politics? Mr. Zhao refused.

The eldest son was unhappy. He drank some wine and quarrelled with the old man. He said that the old man was partial and even attacked the old man's character. The two broke up unhappily.

The eldest son drove away in a rage with his wife and children. As a result, because he was unfamiliar with the road and he had drunk alcohol, he had a car accident on a remote road. When the police and the Zhao family got the news, they only saw the deformed corpses of the couple. The child was gone.

Lin Jihao frowned. He heard that Mr. Zhao had been looking for the whereabouts of that child for so many years. If Li Chaoyang was really the child of the Zhao family, and along with the importance that Mr. Zhao attached to that child…

Although he didn't think he would lose to Li Chaoyang, and that he also believed in Yun Yi's character, he didn't like the feeling of losing control.

"I'm just talking nonsense, it shouldn't be so coincidental," Li Su said quickly when she saw that Lin Jihao had already taken it to heart.

"Have you really seen photos of Young Master Zhao when he was a child?" Lin Jihao asked.

"Wait, I'll ask Tan Li to send it to me." After crossing over, Li Su had been paying close attention to the Zhao family's situation. The reason why she and Tan Li became best friends was that she knew the relationship between Tan Li and the Zhao family. Tan Li had always been a most ostentatious person, and there were many photos on her phone that proved their relationship. Li Su, as a best friend, had also seen it.

In fact, the grown-up Li Chaoyang and the Zhao family's young master were not similar, but when they were about 7-8 years old, they were really similar.

Soon, Tan Li sent a photo containing a 7-8 year-old boy.

Lin Jihao carefully compared them. It seemed that they were really similar.

Li Su frowned. "If it's true, then what should we do?"

Lin Jihao's fingers tapped on the table subconsciously. "If it's true, then it shouldn't be me who should be worried."

"What do you mean?" Li Su looked at Lin Jihao, then smiled. "Only you know what you have in mind. Yun Yi is a good girl. Since you are tempted, you should cherish her. But don't push her away. It would make it easier for others."

Lin Jihao couldn't help but roll his eyes. Was he that stupid?

Li Su glanced at him. "Since you know what you have in mind, then I don't need to worry. My girlfriends are still waiting for me in Paris. I left them and ran back alone. They were very unhappy!"

"Understood. I will pay for all of the aunts' expenses in Paris." Lin Jihao said with a good temper. He would not ignore the ability of his stepmother's girlfriend circle. There were some problems with the approval of a real estate project last time. In the end, it was one of his stepmother's best friends who helped.

"It's almost the same!" Li Su was delighted, turned around and walked out. She talked on the phone while she walked. "Oh, I'm fine. I'll take the plane back right away. You all should go back to the hotel to rest first. Don't go shopping behind my back. My son said that he will cover all the expenses in Paris this time! Okay, I want to buy a lot!"

Lin Jihao also heard the conversation between his stepmother and Secretary Wang. "Secretary Wang, I heard that you are getting engaged next month. I have nothing to give you. I bought a few Chanel bags and skin care products in Paris. I'll have someone deliver them to you later!"

Secretary Wang refused, but Li Su waved her hand and left.

Lin Jihao burst into laughter. His stepmother's life was really unrestrained.

Lin Jihao's gaze fell on the investigation data. Who should he find to reveal this matter about the Zhao family? The young master of the Zhao family had a gloomy personality and was not easy to get along with. If it wasn't done well, then it could cause a lot of trouble.

Got it! Lin Jihao's eyes lit up as he thought of a suitable person.

Zhao Weining looked at the appraisal report in front of him. The door suddenly opened. Zhao Weining looked up. "Dad, why are you here?"

Zhao Chengzhi walked in, saw the document, opened it, looked at it, and then threw it aside. "What a big deal! Is it worth it?"

"Dad!" Zhao Weining frowned. He clearly knew how much grandpa had missed that child for so many years and how guilty he felt towards that child. If he really got that child back, then who knew what would happen with how much his grandpa felt guilty over that child?

Zhao Chengzhi sneered. The death of his eldest brother was due to him. Zhi Dacai was overly capable! Although the old man didn't take his anger out on him, after that, he was a little bit less friendly towards him and even brought the woman back. If it weren't for him having only one son of his own… Hmph!

"It's just an ignorant boy, so there's nothing to be afraid of. He is the son of your uncle, and he should recognize his ancestors and return to the clan. However, your grandfather is not in good health. I'm afraid that he wouldn't be able to handle it. Let's talk about it after your grandfather is better. Arrange for our people to be around to keep an eye on him. Find a reason to get him out of town. Don't let him come back for the time being." Zhao Chengzhi said. The Zhao family like this was good. He didn't want any outsiders to break the peace. That child was the blood of the Zhao family, his nephew, and he would let him recognize his ancestors, but not now.

Zhao Weining originally planned to find someone to do that to Li Chaoyang quietly, but now it seemed that it was impossible. People like them are born with intrigue. Originally, uncle's lineage had already been lost, and the loss was clean and thorough. He didn't expect that the situation would become delicate when uncle died.

"Yes!"

"You are someone who does big things. Don't worry about these details all day long." Zhao Chengzhi glanced at his son. Maybe the environment his son grew up in had been too smooth as there were no setbacks. Zhao Weining's personality was always a bit domineering, but he easily broke down. It wasn't a good thing. It seemed that he had to set up a few obstacles for his son. He has a few illegitimate children outside, and two of them were good enough to be used as targets.

Soon, Lin Jihao learned that Li Chaoyang met a nobleman who took him south to do business together.

The return from the Zhao family would come soon. The recent projects of Feiteng International had been carried out very smoothly.

Lin Jihao smiled slightly. He deserved it. There was nothing to be ashamed of.

While abroad, Li Su had also been following the movements of the Zhao family and Li Chaoyang. She smiled with satisfaction. Although she felt sorry for the male lead, she had no choice. Who made her task target Lin Jihao? In order to complete the task, she could only feel sorry for the male lead.

"A-Su, hurry up! Why are you looking at your phone? Look at the handsome guy! Do you see that handsome guy over there? He's so handsome!" Lisa waved.

Li Su rolled her eyes. "What are you looking at? It's not yours. Aren't you afraid that someone from your family will come to find you?!" Then, she put away her phone and walked over.

Lisa said nonchalantly, "I allow him to dance and drink with women, but he doesn't allow me to see handsome guys!"

Li Su put his arms around her shoulders. "Okay, let's not talk about those unhappy things. Let's go! Let's continue shopping, and max out his credit card!" The life of the rich and noble ladies was not easy, but she was obviously already getting used to this kind of life. She knew other ways to squeeze out the anger and unbearableness.

If it was Li Su herself, she would not endure such a life. She would definitely choose to divorce. However, she would not casually criticise other people's way of life. After all, everyone was different, and everyone's choices were also different. She couldn't use her own standards to make demands of others.

Lisa nodded vigorously. "Yes! Buy, buy, buy!"

Then, several women rushed into a luxury store on the side of the street. Half an hour later, everyone came out with many bags. Lisa looked at the loot in her hand and smiled happily. Sure enough, shopping was always exciting!

Chapter 184 – My Son is Not Mine (part 18)

In the blink of an eye, another 5 years passed. Early in the morning, Yun Yi was dressed in work clothes and led a dozen people to visit the company with a smile. They were all students sponsored by the Yuansu Charity Foundation. They had just entered the university, but during the winter and summer vacations, they came to the company for internships.

"This is where everyone will work in the future. There is no need to be restrained or afraid. It is fine if you learn slowly. If you don't understand anything, you must ask your colleagues. Everyone came from this process. I have set up a group here full of students who have been sponsored by the foundation. Some of them work at Feiteng International and some of them work in the foundation. I will add you to the group. If you don't understand anything, you can also ask everyone. Do you have cell phones and WeChat IDs?" Yun Yi said with a smile.

Everyone nodded. As a gift for admission to the university required by the foundation, the foundation prepared a cell phone for each of them. Although it was just an ordinary domestic cell phone, it was an unexpected joy for them.

"Even if you have signed an agreement with the foundation and the company and will directly come to work in the company after graduation that doesn't mean that you can relax after four years of college and just pass by. At that time, the company will have an assessment, and only outstanding talents will come to work at the company. People who do not meet the standard will not be hired by the company. Therefore, you still have to study hard and not relax! I hope everyone can stay true to their original aspirations and continue to work hard!" Yun Yi said with a smile.

"Thank you, senior!" everyone said in unison.

"Okay, let's end the visit here today. Go back to school for now and report here during the winter vacation. Someone will arrange for you to go to your respective internship positions," Yun Yi said with a smile as she sent everyone downstairs. She didn't know how many of these people would not forget their original aspirations after four years. How many people would successfully stay and work in Feiteng International?

In the past few years, some people had become slack after they were admitted to university. Or, they had been influenced by the attitude of those around them to just get by. As a result, after four years, they almost couldn't even get their graduation certificate and therefore didn't pass the company's assessment.

Some people did not reflect on their mistakes, but instead took out the agreement they signed to sue Feiteng and the foundation for not abiding by the agreement. During that time, there was a lot of uproar. As a result, lawyers came out to interpret the agreement one by one, proving that Feiteng International and the foundation had considered all the consequences and had written it into the agreement. Although there was some controversy in terms of working years, in this incident, Feiteng International and the foundation were not at fault.

It was because the students themselves did not read the terms of the agreement clearly and did not meet the requirements in the agreement. So, Feiteng International's decision not to admit them was not wrong.

It had a big impact at the time. Many people said that this was the real version of the farmer and the snake. This didn't even take into account whether the agreement was legal or not, but the high school, university tuition, and living expenses were provided by the Yuansu Foundation. But, because they did not work hard and their grades were not up to standard, they weren't hired by the company. The other party did not ask for compensation, but they took the other party to court, which was really excessive.

In the end, the instigator withdrew the lawsuit in a sullen manner.

Neither Li Su nor Lin Jihao took this matter to heart, but the earlier sponsors led by Yun Yi took it to heart. They got together to discuss things for a long time. They didn't want their good intentions to be misunderstood, and they didn't want those juniors to waste their time and studies. So, they set up a group that was responsible for paying attention to the mental state of those juniors. It provided help in life and study, among other things.

They hoped their efforts would pay off!

Yun Yi's phone screen suddenly lit up. She saw it was Lin Jihao's WeChat. "Come up for dinner."

Yun Yi was a little shy and looked around. When she saw that no one was paying attention to her, she quietly got on the elevator and went to Lin Jihao's office.

The meals were already prepared. Yun Yi looked at Secretary Wang gratefully. "I'm sorry to bother you again."

Secretary Wang smiled and patted her on the shoulder. "Hurry up and eat! It will be cold in a bit." Her husband booked a table at a restaurant near the company. Now that she had a child, she had to leave quickly.

Yun Yi nodded and watched Secretary Wang enter the elevator before entering the office.

Lin Jihao was looking at some documents. When he saw her enter, he put the documents down. "Come here?"

It was only two words, but Yun Yi blushed inexplicably. "Okay. I'll go wash my hands."

Lin Jihao looked at her fleeing back and smiled. It was obviously not the first time she had come here for dinner. Why was she so shy?

A few minutes later, Yun Yi entered. It was obvious that her face was still flushed. She sat down across from Lin Jihao. Lin Jihao handed her the cutlery. "Let's eat!"

Yun Yi took the cutlery and nodded. "Yes." Why did she feel like they were an old married couple?! Yun Yi turned red again.

In the past few years, she and Lin Jihao had been in a relationship, but they had not made it public. Perhaps it was because she wasn't confident enough. She always wanted to wait. No matter what she said, Lin Jihao always supported her and respected her.

Yun Yi felt very lucky.

"Yun Yi, I have something to discuss with you." Lin Jihao gave Yun Yi a bowl of corn soup.

"What?" Yun Yi raised her head. There was a grain of rice on the corner of her mouth.

Lin Jihao smiled, stretched out his hand, and removed the rice grain. Yun Yi was a little embarrassed and quickly wiped her mouth with a tissue.

"There will be a charity party the day after tomorrow, which is organized by Yuansu Charity Fund and ZF. My mother should have gone, but she is in Tahiti and won't be back in time. So, I have to attend. I need a female companion. Are you willing to be my girlfriend?" Lin Jihao asked.

Yun Yi's eyes widened, and she stuttered, "What, what, girl, girlfriend?"

Lin Jihao looked at her intently and smiled. "Is it okay?"

Yun Yi's excited heart suddenly calmed down. "Yes!"

Lin Jihao smiled. "Let's eat!"

Yun Yian let out a sigh and started to eat.

As soon as she got off work, Yun Yi received a call from Liu Tingting. "Have you gotten off work? Hurry up and come down. The boss called me and asked me to take you to the beauty salon for maintenance."

Yun Yi was a little embarrassed. Her colleagues were packing their things and getting ready to leave work, so no one noticed her. Yun Yi quickly picked up her phone and walked. "Older sister Tingting, why are you here?"

On Liu Tingting's side, her husband was also gently reminding her. "Slow down. Watch the steps. Oh, look at you. I told you to be careful!"

Liu Tingting smiled and kissed her husband's face. "Don't worry, I'm fine." Then, she said into the phone, "You should hurry down. Aren't you embarrassed to let me, a pregnant woman, wait for you?"

Yun Yi felt a little helpless. She was embarrassed to let a pregnant woman run back and forth for her own affairs, so she did this. But she also knew older sister Tingting's character, so she couldn't keep her waiting for a long time. She quickly packed her things and left work.

When she walked out of the door of the company, she saw a car parked across the road with the window rolled down. Liu Tingting stuck her head out of the car window and waved to her vigorously. Most of her body was exposed, and her husband was watching her from behind. He held his hands nervously to protect her stomach.

Yun Yi hurriedly ran over, opened the car door and sat inside. "Older sister Tingting, can you be a little more conscious of the fact that you are pregnant? It is dangerous!"

Liu Tingting's husband, Chen Wei, nodded. "Yun Yi is right. You are almost a mother. Why are you so reckless?!"

But Liu Tingting said nonchalantly, "It's only been four months. How can I be so delicate? Don't listen to my mother's alarmist talk. Let's stop talking about this. Hurry up and drive. Don't waste time!"

"Don't be so troublesome. You are pregnant. You need to rest more." Yun Yi was still trying to persuade Liu Tingting.

"That won't work. This is your first public appearance, so you have to prepare well. Besides, the boss has spoken. This is a necessary process. I have made an appointment with Xiaoyu. She will come later. "

"Is your little sister coming too?" Chen Wei was Chen Yu's third cousin. He and Liu Tingting were also introduced by Chen Yu. They had fallen in love at first sight! After getting along for a while, they found that they were very compatible with each other, and they got married.

"Well, I said why the third auntie is so anxious. Little Yu is not that old. She always forces her to have a blind date. Even if she wants to go on blind dates, she has to find better ones. Let's see what kind of people they are!" Liu Tingting complained.

"Hasn't grandma already said that, before introducing someone to your little sister, she must first let her see it! With grandma keeping an eye out for your little sister, what else do you have to worry about?" Chen Wei laughed. Grandma had a very accurate feel for what people were like. When he brought Tingting home for the first time, his grandmother was very satisfied, saying that Tingting was a good girl. Facts have proved that grandma's vision was right!

"I just don't understand. Xiaoyu is doing very well now. Why is it an issue for a girl not to get married when she reaches a certain age?! What is the age when you should get married? Isn't marriage about love?" Liu Tingting had also experienced such a thing. At that time, her parents, brother and sister-in-law were chatting behind her back all day. They introduced her to many people and forced her to go out on blind dates. She moved out, but she still couldn't escape.

God only knew how she survived those years. Fortunately, Little Yu later introduced her to her now husband. The two hit it off at first sight.

Liu Tingting felt that she was lucky that she had met the most suitable person for her. But obviously, Little Yu didn't have such good luck. That person hasn't appeared yet and Little Yu was still searching. But Little Yu's family couldn't take it any longer.

Yun Yi sat quietly beside her and listened.

Liu Tingting suddenly asked, "Yiyi, did your grandma force you to go on a blind date?"

Yun Yi didn't expect the topic to suddenly shift to herself. She quickly shook her head. In fact, grandma had mentioned it a few times, but Yun Yi had shelved that topic.

Chen Wei sighed. How could a person who was so keen on gossip not even notice that Chairman Li had made it clear that she was matching Yun Yi and her son. There were so many people in Feiteng International. Why should Yun Yi be the female companion?

Chapter 185 – My Son is Not mine (part 19)

Liu Tingting and her party went to the beauty salon. Chen Yu was already there waiting. "Why did you guys take so long? I've been waiting for a long time!"

"There was a traffic jam and it's rush hour. I'm sorry. Your older brother has paid for all the expenses today!" Liu Tingting walked over with a smile and gave Chen Yu a hug.

"Come on! Do you think I don't know? You are holding older sister Li's card!" Chen Yu said angrily. Her mother found another blind date for her. Her grandmother saw the man and said he was good and asked her to meet him tomorrow.

"You're going to have a late night supper. Tell me whatever you want to eat!" Liu Tingting said with a smile.

"Don't want to eat. I'm trying to lose weight!" Chen Yu snorted.

"Older sister Chen Yu!" Yun Yi came up to say hello. "Let's go in and talk. It's windy outside!"

Chen Yu looked at Liu Tingting's stomach and nodded. The three of them went inside.

Ten minutes later, the three were lying there with the beauticians working on their faces. Liu Tingting was pregnant and only chose the most basic facial care. The other two underwent a complete set of whitening and maintenance courses.

Chen Yu sighed. "Tingting, it would be great if you had more unmarried brothers. It would save me so much trouble."

Liu Tingting also had some regrets. She had two best friends, Chen Yu and Yun Yi. She wanted to have two unmarried, smart and capable brothers suddenly appear, so that she could solve the marriage issues for her best friends! She was living a happy life now and she only worried about her girlfriends.

Yun Yi was a little overjoyed. She had already met her Mr. Right, so she wouldn't have to go through blind dating! However, Jihao wasn't that young. Would auntie be in a hurry? She hadn't told auntie about Jihao and herself. What if auntie was in a hurry and asked him to go on a blind date?

When Yun Yi thought of this, she felt a little uncomfortable.

The three of them were quiet for a while.

Liu Tingting felt that the atmosphere was a little dull, so she asked, "Little Yu, who is your blind date tomorrow?"

"I don't know. It is said that he is a boss who is a few years younger than me. He is almost thirty. The company has done a good job and is very capable," Chen Yu said expressionlessly. She didn't want to go on the blind date. When her mother talked about the other party's situation, she did not listen carefully. She only remembered one thing, that the other party was the eldest grandson of the Zhao family who had been lost for many years. Although old man Zhao was no longer there, the Zhao family had already spoken, and he would get a share of the property.

Chen Yu's mother cared not about money, but about the attitude of the Zhao family. For now, the Zhao family was more kind to this long-lost child. If she had a relationship with the Zhao family, then Chen Yu's father's career would be much smoother.

So Chen Yu's mother asked Chen Yu to perform well tomorrow.

The key thing was that grandma had also seen the profile of that person. Apart from his identity, he was really excellent.

So, for tomorrow's blind date, Chen Yu must go.

Chen Yu felt very helpless. Where did her mother get the confidence that as long as she wanted to, she would definitely succeed?! She was several years older than that Zhao Weicheng. The person surnamed Zhao was so good, why would he fall in love with her? There were so many young and beautiful girls that he could choose from!

Yun Yi kept silent next to her and merely listened to Liu Tingting and Chen Yu discussing the unreasonable phenomenon of why people urged marriage in today's society.

After returning to the dormitory, it was almost 11. Yun Yi thought about it, took out her cell phone, and sent a message to Lin Jihao. "Are you busy?"

In the next second, Lin Jihao had video called her. "Are you back?"

Yun Yi nodded.

However, Lin Jihao found that Yun Yi's mood was not good. "What's the matter? Is there anything bothering you?"

Yun Yi was a little embarrassed, but she wasn't a stingy person. "Will auntie force you to go on blind dates?"

Lin Jihao was stunned for a while, then laughed. Did she think that Li Su didn't know about their relationship? No way? How could such a smart person like Yun Yi be so slow on this matter?

Yun Yi was a little annoyed by Lin Jihao's laugh. "What are you laughing at?!" Yun Yi couldn't help but ask angrily.

Lin Jihao cleared his throat and held back his laughter. "Do you think my mother doesn't know about our relationship?"

Yun Yi's eyes widened. "Does she? Could it be that auntie always knew?"

Lin Jihao smiled. "It wasn't too early. She knew about it not long after I made up my mind. Don't worry. She wasn't unhappy. In fact, she was even very happy. She thought that I was no good in my last life, so I could only find you in this life. I also want to cherish you and not scare you away."

Only then did Yun Yi's anxious heart settle down. Auntie was her benefactor, and she was the person she least wanted to disappoint and sadden in her life. "Is that true? Auntie is really not unhappy?"

"Do you want me to let her tell you personally?" Lin Jihao was still a little bit intrigued. Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a harmonious relationship, it was not a good thing for a girlfriend to value her mother-in-law more than herself.

"No need! No need!" Yun Yi quickly refused. She wasn't ready yet!

Lin Jihao stopped teasing her. "Don't worry. I promised you that when you want to make it public, you can make it public. You don't have to care about others."

Yun Yi felt a slightly sweet feeling in her heart. "Mm, thank you."

Lin Jihao laughed softly, and the two chatted for a while. Yun Yi was relieved and quickly fell asleep under Lin Jihao's urging.

Lin Jihao put down his phone, looked at the news photos on the computer screen. He smiled.

Zhao Weicheng, hehe!

Lin Jihao and Yun Yi attended the charity dinner the next day. This was the first time that Yun Yi had attended such an occasion. After a short period of nervousness, Yun Yi quickly adapted. She stayed behind Lin Jihao and chatted with people with all kinds of backgrounds.

"Who is that person? Isn't it a bit strange?! Yo, the person next to him is the young master of the Zhao family!"

"Could it be the legendary young master of the Zhao family who was separated for many years? I heard that he has already recognised his ancestors."

"He is apparently two years older than the eldest son. What do you think of the fact that the eldest son of the Zhao family, who has been the eldest son for more than 20 years, is suddenly now the second young master…"

"What nonsense! Are you not afraid of offending young master Zhao? They are just cousins!"

Yun Yi followed the voice and looked over. It was older sister Chen Yu and Li Chaoyang! She was a little surprised and quickly looked at Lin Jihao.

Lin Jihao patted her hand reassuringly, signalling to her to not be nervous. Then, he walked towards Zhao Weining with Yun Yi and stretched out his hand. "I didn't expect Director Zhao to take time out of his busy schedule to attend the charity dinner. It's really an honor."

Zhao Weining and Lin Jihao shook hands, then Zhao Weining glanced at Yun Yi. "Who is this?"

Lin Jihao said softly, "This is Yun Yi, my colleague. Yun Yi, this is Director Zhao of the Administration for Industry and Commerce."

Zhao Weining looked back at his cousin meaningfully. It seemed that this Yun Yi was already dating Lin Jihao. "I haven't introduced you yet…"

"No need! We know each other!" Zhao Weicheng, the former Li Chaoyang, suddenly took his hand from Chen Yu's and reached out to Yun Yi. "Yun Yi, we meet again!"

Yun Yi looked at Lin Jihao. She reached out awkwardly. Zhao Weicheng grabbed her hand and held it tightly.

Lin Jihao smiled calmly and separated the two with his body. "We haven't seen each other for a few years. I didn't expect to see you again today. Should I call you President Li or President Zhao?"

Zhao Weicheng didn't speak. He watched Yun Yi hide behind Lin Jihao. "The name is just a title. Whatever makes Chairman Lin happy."

Chen Yu came over. "Weicheng, Chairman Lin, Yun Yi, do you know each other?"

Yun Yi was a little embarrassed. Could it be that older sister Chen Yu's blind date was Li Chaoyang? Why had he changed his last name? What exactly was going on?

Lin Jihao lowered his head and said softly, "I'll explain it to you later. Don't worry, it's alright."

Yun Yi nodded and her expression relaxed a little.

Zhao Weicheng saw the interaction between them and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

Zhao Weining saw this and smiled slightly. "Since we all know each other, that's fine. In the future, I'll have to ask Chairman Lin to look after him."

Lin Jihao smiled. "President Zhao is young and promising. I don't think I'll need to look after him. Instead, I'll have to ask Mr. Zhao for his care."

Zhao Weicheng didn't speak, he just smiled disdainfully. He was no longer the person who didn't understand anything five years ago and just rushed forward with a passion. After working hard in the south for so many years, he had experienced many setbacks and almost lost everything several times. Back then, he had thought that he had a great destiny ordained by god, and that he was blessed with good luck!

A month ago, the Zhao family sent someone to find him, saying that he might be their long-lost child. The final DNA test results also confirmed this. At that time, he was even more certain that he had a great destiny ordained by god! Even though his grandfather and parents were gone, he had the Zhao family. This identity alone could bring him a lot of things.

He thought at the time that he might have the capital to compete with Lin Jihao. Just when he was in high spirits and was about to return to the capital, he accidentally discovered that his good brother was actually in contact with the Zhao family. Having been in the business world for many years, Zhao Weicheng had long become suspicious, but he had never doubted his good brother. After all, his good brother was the one who took him south, and had never betrayed him in the past few years no matter how difficult it got.

But what is it that was in front of him?

Zhao Weicheng rushed to his good brother and asked him what was going on.

The other party told him a cruel truth.

It turned out that the Zhao family knew about his existence five years ago, but deliberately tricked him into going to the south. His so-called good brother was here to spy on him.

It was not until his grandfather passed away that the Zhao family found him and asked him to recognise his ancestors and return to the clan!

"Chaoyang, I'll apologise to you. But it's only natural for people to die for the sake of money. My family is waiting for me abroad, and I'm going to look for them. We probably won't see each other again in the future. For the sake of our brotherhood, I would like to ask you one last thing. Don't think about arguing with the eldest young master. You can't compete with him. Don't blame them. I don't know why they don't want you to go back so early. The people standing behind him don't want you to go back and break the current peace of the Zhao family. To tell you the truth, even if you went back five years ago and had the support of old man Zhao, you would not have been able to compete. The Zhao family is no longer the Zhao family of old man Zhao. If you want to be good, then give up those thoughts! You can't compete!"

It took Zhao Weicheng a whole week to digest those words.

Chapter 186 – My Son is Not Mine (final part)

On the day after he returned to the capital, his second uncle found him, told him about all the events of the year, and also made it clear that it was his intention to let him stay in the south for five years. Second uncle also gave him all the evidence that he had kept for many years. He learned from them that the death of his parents and his disappearance was all indeed an accident.

Second uncle also said that he was still from the Zhao family. He was second uncle's nephew, so what originally belonged to him would be returned to him. As for anything else, he shouldn't force it.

At that time, Zhao Weicheng still had three points of resentment in his heart. But, after contacting Zhao Weining, those resentments disappeared. This cousin, who was two years younger than him, had great scheming ability that was far out of his reach.

Zhao Weicheng thought that he should just accept his fate! At the very least, he was now a part of the Zhao family. No one dared to provoke him if he went out with this identity.

But after seeing Yun Yi and Lin Jihao, Zhao Weicheng's suppressed resentment burned again.

Even if he couldn't compare to Zhao Weining, couldn't he compare to Lin Jihao? He thought so!

"Mr. Zhao! Mr. Zhao!" Seeing that Zhao Weicheng had been staring at Yun Yi and Lin Jihao, Chen Yu was a little unhappy and let go of Zhao Weicheng's hand.

Although she was quite satisfied with Zhao Weicheng, she would not quarrel with him. If Zhao Weicheng had someone he liked in his heart, then he should just say so. Why bother going out on a blind date! Why did he invite her to a charity dinner? Wasn't that humiliating?

If it wasn't for her family education not allowing her to do such a rude thing as leaving the table on the spot, she might have really left.

Yun Yi looked at Chen Yu apologetically. She didn't know how to explain to older sister Chen Yu.

Lin Jihao patted Yun Yi's hand lightly. "Would you and your friend go over there for a drink? I'll find you later."

Yun Yi nodded with trust. "Okay."

Then, she looked at Chen Yu, "Older sister Chen Yu, shall we go over there for a drink?"

Chen Yu glanced at Zhao Weicheng and nodded. "Okay."

Yun Yi and Chen Yu went to the drinking area, and Yun Yi hurriedly explained things. "Older sister Chen Yu, that Zhao Weicheng and I really have nothing going on."

Chen Yu interrupted her. "I know. I know you better than him!"

After Yun Yi heard this, she felt a little relieved. She was afraid that there would be a situation where sisters turned against each other because of men. Although it was very old-fashioned, it often happened in life. Although the relationship between her and Chen Yu was not as close to that of Liu Tingting, she didn't want any misunderstanding between them that made older sister Tingting embarrassed. Chen Yu was Liu Tingting's sister-in-law.

"Actually, when I met him, his name was Li Chaoyang. That was five years ago. On my way back from the nursing home, I happened to see a car accident. I called the police and ambulance. I also paid the medical bills in advance. Later, he found me, returned the money, and said he wanted to repay me. Later, he seemed to be pursuing me, and I didn't agree because I wasn't interested in him. He was a bit self-righteous, as if he had misunderstood something. After that, I never saw him until this dinner."

Chen Yu took a sip of juice. "He was my blind date yesterday. We chatted and felt that we were in agreement with each other, so we exchanged contact information. Last night, he invited me to today's dinner party. Although I am satisfied with him, but it seems that it is not the case for him. What's the matter with him?!"

Yun Yi didn't know how this happened. "Older sister Chen Yu, I really don't have those kinds of thoughts about him. I have someone I like."

"It's Lin Jihao, isn't it?" Chen Yu smiled suddenly.

Yun Yi widened her eyes in surprise. "How did you know?"

"There is such a good person around you, so it's normal to like him. Don't you know that Lin Jihao is rather famous? He is rich and powerful. His character is also good, and there is rarely any bad news. Do you know how many women like him and dream of marrying him? It's normal for you to like him!" Chen Yu said with a smile.

Yun Yi looked at Lin Jihao. Even in the crowd, he was the brightest one.

"But if you like him, then it's fine to like him, but only like him like an idol. Don't get caught up in it." Chen Yu sighed slightly when she saw Yun Yi's eyes. "Lin Jihao is indeed very good, but such a person can only be viewed from a distance. He's not that someone that people like you or I could match. Of course, I don't mean to look down on you when I say this. I want to say that, for people like Lin Jihao, marriage is never because of love, but because of interests. Maybe there are also accidents, but… How do I say it? The reason why accidents are called accidents is because the probability is very small."

Yun Yi didn't speak. She believed in her eyes and her feelings. She knew that the most important foundation of a relationship was trust and respect. This trust and respect was mutual. He had given her a lot of respect, and she was willing to repay him with her trust.

But these words were not good to say to others.

After seeing the person next to Lin Jihao, Yun Yi had another headache.

"Older sister Chen Yu, you…" Yun Yi hesitated.

Chen Yu looked at her and smiled, "What's the hurry? I don't have to ask him. I'm just a little angry. It looks like he hasn't given up on you yet. Since that's the case, why would he accept a blind date and make it look like he was very satisfied with me. Thinking of his sloppy attitude makes me feel sick!"

Yun Yi let out a sigh of relief. "But, older sister Chen Yu, didn't you say that your mother was very satisfied with him?"

Chen Yu's face suddenly turned black. Yes, it was easy to reject Zhao Weicheng, but it was difficult to explain it to her mother. "It's alright. I have my grandma. I will go and teach in the mountains, then come back after two or three years. No matter how angry my mother will be, her anger will disappear," Chen Yu said.

"Ah? Teach?" Yun Yi was a little surprised when she heard that Chen Yu wanted to teach in a mountain village.

"Actually, I've had this idea for a long time, but I just couldn't make up my mind." Chen Yu wanted to go to a remote mountain village to teach, but she couldn't make up her mind. She and the foundation had been to impoverished mountain villages and knew what the standard of living there was. She came from a good family and was the only girl in the family. So, it had never been done.

This time was a great opportunity!

Yun Yi thought for a while. "Older sister Chen Yu, in fact, you can go to the school built by the foundation to teach."

"Ah? Is that possible?" Chen Yu asked.

"It should be possible, just ask Chairman Wang," Yun Yi said. The conditions for going to the school built by the foundation were much better than other places.

Yeah, why didn't she think of this before? Chen Yu began to seriously think about the feasibility of this matter.

Over there, Lin Jihao and Zhao Weicheng were also confronting each other.

Suddenly, Lin Jihao's cell phone rang. He looked down and reluctantly answered the call. "Hey! Mom."

"Why are you so useless? You can't catch a girlfriend? It's alright now. The love rival has appeared! Just you wait. I'll take a private jet back right away. I can't count on you anymore. I'll come to the door to propose marriage when I go back!" Li Su didn't wait for Lin Jihao to speak. She hung up the phone.

Lin Jihao looked at the phone, a little helpless.

Zhao Weicheng suddenly smiled. "What? Your mother knows about you and Yun Yi, so she called to settle the bill with you?"

Lin Jihao felt that excessive brain supplementation was a disease and had to be cured! "You're wrong. My mother thinks I'm too slow. I haven't caught my girlfriend yet. I'm going to find Yun Yi's grandma to propose marriage."

Zhao Weicheng rolled his eyes in disdain. "What nonsense. You can just lie to others, but you want to lie to me? Hehe, you people appear so bright and wonderful on the outside, but what about the inside?" When Zhao Weicheng said this, he stared at Zhao Weining, who was talking to someone.

Lin Jihao smiled slightly. He had no intention of explaining anything to Zhao Weicheng.

"If you really like Yun Yi, why haven't you been open about it and told everyone about your relationship? You are a liar. You have deceived Yun Yi! Just wait. I will definitely expose your true face," Zhao Weicheng said in a low voice as he leaned over to Lin Jihao.

Lin Jihao was really speechless. Five years later, he still hadn't made any progress. Since he was like that, it was strange that he could beat Zhao Weining.

It wasn't that Lin Jihao looked down on Zhao Weicheng. Although Zhao Weicheng had some skills, he was not a threat to Lin Jihao. Lin Jihao didn't know why his stepmother was so worried about Zhao Weicheng.

Did this Zhao Weicheng really have any ability that he didn't know about?

Lin Jihao couldn't help but look at Zhao Weicheng carefully again. Zhao Weicheng was a little annoyed. "What are you looking at?"

Lin Jihao retracted his gaze. "Nothing interesting. Sorry." After nodding, Lin Jihao left and walked towards Yun Yi.

After, Lin Jihao ignored Zhao Weicheng and took Yun Yi to talk to other people he knew.

Zhao Weicheng didn't intend on talking with others. He just stood in the corner and stared at Lin Jihao and Yun Yi the entire time.

Seeing this, Chen Yu smiled disdainfully. She took out her mobile phone and deleted all Zhao Weicheng's contact information.

After returning home, Chen Yu immediately told her parents that Zhao Weicheng had someone else he liked, and she had no interest in Zhao Weicheng.

Then, after her mother's accusation and father's sigh, she quickly packed up and ran to grandma's house.

Half a month later, she took her luggage and went to the first elementary school built by the Yuansu Foundation to teach for two years. She didn't tell any of her family members. When her grandmother found out, she scolded her son and daughter-in-law angrily. If they forced her granddaughter to have a blind date in the future, then she would cut them off.

Chen Yu's parents were also very annoyed. Their only precious daughter went to teach, and they felt bad for her. But that boat has sailed. They were helpless. Immediately, they started to worry again. Their daughter was in her thirties and she would teach for another two years…

Liu Tingting was also shocked when she learned that Chen Yu really went to the mountain village to teach. But when she saw Chen Yu's sincere and bright smile in her circle of friends, she felt that there was nothing wrong with this decision.

Yun Yi didn't have time to pay attention to Chen Yu's affairs. She was now faced with a difficult choice. On the day Li Su came back, she didn't even go home, and went directly to the nursing home with the dowry to formally propose the marriage between Lin Jihao and Yun Yi to Grandma Yun.

Lin Jihao and Yun Yi hurried to the nursing home. Yun Yi was confused. Why was auntie and grandmother looking for them in such a hurry? Lin Jihao had a headache. He thought that his stepmother was just talking about it casually. He didn't expect for her to really go to propose their marriage.

"What is going on?" Yun Yi asked in a low voice before entering.

Lin Jihao sighed. "Let's go in and talk about it!"

After the two entered, they saw Grandma Yun sitting opposite to Li Su with a frightened expression. The table between the two was full of gold jewellery.

Yun Yi's eyes widened. What was going on?!

Lin Jihao quickly closed the door. "Mum, what are you doing?"

Grandma Yun saw that her granddaughter had arrived, and quickly stretched out her hands to her granddaughter. "Yiyi, you are here. This, this…" Grandma Yun was clumsy and didn't know what to say.

Li Su said with a smile, "I'm here to propose their marriage! These are dowry gifts. This is only a small section of the dowry gifts and the rest will be made up another day. The most important thing now is to confirm the relationship between the two of them. I know you young people think about their careers and aren't in a hurry to get married. But you are not that young anymore. Besides, marriage will not affect your career progression. I am not a stubborn person. After Yun Yi gets married, she can still go out to work. It's just that it is better for her to have a child while she is young. She can recover quicker, and it's good for her and the child. As for me, I don't know how to take care of a child, but I can spend money and ask the best confinement nanny and nanny to help take care of the child. It won't affect your business…"

Lin Jihao saw Yun Yi's blushing face. Li Su had already talked about the child going to elementary school, so he interrupted her quickly. "Mum, this is too sudden! Why didn't you discuss this with me?!"

"Discuss this with you? Discuss when my daughter-in-law can enter our family?" Li Su glared at Lin Jihao in disgust.

Grandma Yun had a sudden moment of clarity. "You, you and our Yiyi… You have been together for a long time? Is that so, Yiyi? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?"

Yun Yi's face was red, and she couldn't say a word.

Lin Jihao said quickly, "Grandma, I should have come to see you earlier, but there were too many things to do and I didn't have time. Yun Yi and I have been together for a long time, and the reason why I didn't tell anyone was because Yun Yi wouldn't let me. She was afraid that others would gossip. Yun Yi is very smart and has a strong work ethic. I couldn't bear to let her deal with those burdens. So I didn't tell anyone. I know that we hid it from you. It is our fault. Don't be angry. "

Grandma Yun was not angry. She was afraid. What kind of family were they, and what kind of family was the Lin family? She never dreamed that Yiyi would be with Lin Jihao.

"Oh, what are you still worrying about? My son is a good-looking, talented person. He is worthy of Yiyi. He and your family's Yiyi are in love with each other. You know what kind of person I am. I have always liked Yiyi a lot. When Yiyi marries into our family, there will definitely be no conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. I will definitely be good to Yiyi! Do you think so?" Li Su said as she pulled Grandma Yun's hand. "For us elders, we don't have any other requirements. As long as the children are good, that's fine, don't you think?"

Seeing that Grandma Yun was still a little hesitant, Li Su said more. "Don't worry, although my son is a bit stupid, he is definitely not a half-hearted person. If you don't believe me, ask Yiyi. After so many years, apart from Yiyi, he has never gone after other women. If you are worried that Yiyi will be bullied after marrying, I can write an agreement. If Lin Jihao dares to do something wrong to Yiyi, I will ask them to divorce immediately. Then as compensation, I will write a contract in my name. All of the property will be transferred to Yiyi."

As soon as Li Su said these words, everyone present was stunned.

Although Grandma Yun and Yun Yi don't know how rich Li Su was, they could probably guess. So when Li Su said this, both of them were stunned. Grandma Yun was shocked at the sincerity, and Yun Yi was full of emotion. If it wasn't for auntie, she wouldn't be where she was today. In fact, as long as auntie spoke, she would definitely agree. She did not expect that her auntie would make such a decision in order to reassure her grandmother!

Lin Jihao didn't expect his stepmother to say this. Although he didn't think it was necessary, he still thanked his stepmother for her kindness.

"Grandma, I can sign a prenuptial agreement with Yun Yi. If I do anything wrong to Yun Yi after marriage, I can leave the house. All the property in my name, except for the company's shares, will be given to Yun Yi. Although I don't think such a thing will happen, if doing so will make you feel at ease to marry Yun Yi to me, I can do that," Lin Jihao said seriously.

Yun Yi shook her head. "No, there is no need to sign any agreement. Grandma, I believe in my vision. I believe in him and I believe in auntie. Even if such a thing happened, then it would only prove that I am wrong. My life won't change because of this! Grandma, believe me."

Yun Yi's face glowed with confidence.

Li Su smiled. "Yes, if Lin Jihao leaves you, it will be his loss! Don't worry, I will definitely be on your side!"

Lin Jihao was a little helpless. What did he do to make everyone think he would be such a scumbag?!

Grandma Yun thought about it. Li Su and Lin Jihao's postures were so low, which showed their sincerity. Looking at her granddaughter like this, it was obvious that she really liked Lin Jihao. Although Grandma Yun was still a little worried, she finally nodded. "Grandma believes in you."

Then, she looked at Lin Jihao. "I will ask you on behalf of my family's Yiyi. She is a sincere child. Once she chooses someone, she will always be good to him. You should cherish her well and don't let her down. If you really dare to bully her. I will do my best to get justice for Yiyi."

Lin Jihao said solemnly, "Grandma, don't worry. With you and my mother watching, how could I dare to?"

"That's right. We will watch him together. If he dares to have any bad intentions, I will break his leg!" Li Su said with a smile.

Grandma Yun looked at Li Su again. "You are the great benefactor of our family. No matter what you say, we will do it. But I only have one granddaughter, Yiyi, and marriage is a lifetime event. I have to be careful. I don't need any monetary requests, I only have one request. If there comes a day where you don't like Yiyi anymore, let her go and don't embarrass her."

Li Su looked at Grandma Yun. "Are you referring to the agreement between her and the foundation? Don't worry, if there is a day, the agreement will be voided. Yun Yi can leave at any time. If Lin Jihao doesn't allow it, I will pay to help Yun Yi file a lawsuit!"

Grandma Yun was relieved. "That's good! That's good!" Then she looked at Yun Yi. "I agree with this marriage!"

Yun Yi knew that her grandmother was doing all of this for her. Her eyes were red. "Grandma!"

Grandma Yun held Yun Yi's hand. "Good child." Grandma hoped to fulfill her beautiful fantasy about love. It didn't matter if it didn't work out in the end. Grandma would be here.

Li Su was very moved when he saw the state of the grandmother and granddaughter. Grandma Yun was actually a very wise person. She hit Lin Jihao. "Did you understand? Treat Yun Yi well and don't let her down."

Lin Jihao was also a little touched and nodded. "I know."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little sad, Li Su quickly clapped her hands and smiled. "Since Grandma Yun has agreed, let's pick a date! They can get engaged and then get married. As for the wedding, I'll take care of it. Yun Yi, what do you like? The style of wedding dress? We can ask someone to tailor it. Do you want a Chinese wedding or Western wedding? Where do you want to hold your wedding? Do you like castle weddings? What about the honeymoon? Where do you want to go? Forget the Maldives, there are too many people there. How about Tahiti?"

Lin Jihao hurriedly interrupted Li Su when he saw that Yun Yi's face was incredibly red. "Mum, we can talk about this later. Yun Yi and I haven't decided yet."

"You've already met the parents, but you haven't made up your mind yet?" Li Su said in surprise.

Lin Jihao looked at Yun Yi. Yun Yi was a little awkward. "I, I…"

"You can't be thinking of abandoning this responsibility?!" Li Su looked at Yun Yi.

Lin Jihao almost couldn't help but laugh. Yun Yi waved her hand and tried to explain. "No! No!"

"Mom, Yun Yi and I will discuss the wedding. You must give us some time to prepare!" Lin Jihao quickly said.

"What do you need to prepare? In the name of the company, let's announce it on Weibo. Our family is getting a wife, and we don't care about other people's affairs. If someone dares to make irresponsible remarks, it can only show your incompetence as a husband!" Li Su knew what Yun Yi was worried about, but Zhao Weicheng had already appeared. Therefore, she didn't dare to delay things any longer.

Lin Jihao thought about this and it made sense. If someone made irresponsible remarks about Yun Yi, it would indeed be a result of his own incompetence. He looked at Yun Yi. "Yiyi, what do you think?"

Yun Yi looked at Li Su, then at Grandma Yun, and finally lowered her head feebly. "Okay!"

"Then it's decided. I'll ask the master to set the date now!" Li Su clapped her hands and smiled.

Grandma Yun was worried about the dowry again, but when she saw Yun Yi's happy face, Grandma Yun stopped talking. Forget it. It wasn't like the Lin family didn't know their family's situation, so they would do their best!

Not long after, Lin Jihao's Weibo, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly posted a Weibo post. The content was a photo. In the photo, he and a young woman were holding a marriage certificate and smiling happily at the camera.

Immediately afterwards, the official Weibo of Feiteng International and the official Weibo of the Yuansu Foundation both reposted his Weibo, including blessings such as a hundred years of good luck and an early birth of a precious son.

Weibo immediately reacted.

Soon, the netizens dug up the identity of the woman, Yun Yi, who used to be sponsored by the Yuansu Charity Foundation, and who now worked at Feiteng International!

Netizens immediately made up the story of a Cinderella marrying into a wealthy family. Some people gave their blessings while others were not optimistic.

When Li Su was interviewed by reporters, she mentioned Yun Yi with a look of joy, "Yun Yi is a good child. I like her a lot. Yes, I am very satisfied. Jihao thought long about this before they agreed to get married. Only then did Yun Yi agree to get married." Her words made it obvious that she held Yun Yi in high regard.

When Zhao Weicheng saw that Weibo post, his face flushed with anger. He had recently been busy moving the company from the south to the capital. His career had not gone as smoothly as he imagined. The identity of the Zhao family did not seem to bring him much in terms of convenience. Because of the fluctuation of people's hearts, many people resigned. He didn't have time to pay attention to them for a while, but he didn't expect them to get married.

Zhao Weicheng drove angrily and wanted to find Yun Yi to let her see Lin Jihao's true face, but when he drove to Feiteng International, he happened to see Lin Jihao and Yun Yi coming out. Lin Jihao's hand supported Yun Yi's waist. The two were very close.

It must have been raining and the floor was slippery. Yun Yi accidentally slipped. Lin Jihao quickly hugged her waist and held her in his arms.

After that, Lin Jihao was probably afraid that Yun Yi would fall again, so he carried Yun Yi down the steps.

The car approached. Lin Jihao and Yun Yi got in the car and drove away.

Zhao Weicheng followed them not too far away.

He saw the two of them shopping for fruit in the supermarket like an ordinary couple. They then went to the nursing home. The two of them supported an old person and took a walk in the garden.

Even if Zhao Weicheng didn't want to believe it, what he saw in front of him told him that maybe he was really wrong. Lin Jihao and Yun Yi were really in love.

What about him?

Obviously he was the most suitable person for Yun Yi. Why was it not him who ended up with Yun Yi in the end?! But it didn't matter. He could wait. One day, Yun Yi would understand that he was the best.

Zhao Weicheng lowered his head, making it difficult to see his face.

In the end, Zhao Weicheng left silently.

Lin Jihao seemed to feel something. He looked in the direction Zhao Weicheng disappeared from, and smiled slightly. Did he already find out? The days in the capital were not as beautiful as he imagined, right? Next, he would be more deeply aware of this fact.

"Jihao, what are you looking at?" Yun Yi looked over there curiously. There was nothing.

"It's nothing. I was just thinking that it's not good to always live in a nursing home. Just wondering if we should take grandma home." Lin Jihao smiled.

"It's better not to. Grandma is used to living in a nursing home, and she would miss those old sisters. In the future, let's come and see her more." Yun Yi knew her grandmother's thoughts. Instead of living in a mansion, Grandma may prefer nursing home life.

"But if we have children in the future, won't grandma want to come back? Would she be willing?" Lin Jihao said in Yun Yi's ear.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Yun Yi blushed and rolled her eyes at him.

Lin Jihao smiled.

Three months later, Lin Jihao and Yun Yi held a grand wedding in Greece. When toasting, Yun Yi felt a little uncomfortable and nauseous. Li Su and Grandma Yun looked at each other. They quickly asked someone to change the wine to water, and then asked Yun Yi to replace her high heels. After the toast was over, a pregnancy stick was placed in front of Lin Jihao and Yun Yi to welcome them. There was also the happy faces of Li Su and Grandma Yun.

"Come, take the test to see if you're pregnant." Li Su said with a smile. Although Grandma Yun didn't speak, the hope in her eyes was very obvious.

Yun Yi blushed and took the pregnancy test stick to the bathroom. After a while, she came out.

Li Su quickly took the pregnancy test stick and looked at it. There were 2 bars! She was overjoyed. "That's great! You're pregnant! Hurry up and sit down and rest! Are you tired? Do you want to drink some water? What about the honeymoon? Since this is the case, let's make it up after the baby is born!"

Lin Jihao also looked surprised. After his initial surprise, he looked at Yun Yi, worried. He knew that Yun Yi had no plans to have children for the time being.

Yun Yi smiled. She didn't plan on having a child soon. She had been using contraception, but since this child was here, it was also God's intention. She will love this child well.

Zhao Weicheng had been waiting for Lin Jihao to show his true colors. Many days passed by. Yun Yi and Lin Jihao's first child was born and it was a girl. The Lin family held a grand ceremony for the child. Li Su and Lin Jihao attended the ceremony holding the child with a smile on their faces. Their words were full of love for the child. Li Su even announced that she would resign as the chairman of the Yuansu Charity Foundation and hand the Yuansu Charity Foundation to her daughter-in-law to manage. Therefore, 5 months after giving birth, Yun Yi resigned from Feiteng International and took over the Yuansu Charity Foundation.

A few years later, Yun Yi became pregnant again and safely gave birth to a boy. At the ceremony, Lin Jihao and Yun Yi attended with a pair of children, and their happiness was beyond words.

Zhao Weicheng had always been single. He had never been in love nor on a blind date. His uncle mentioned a few words, but Zhao Weicheng ignored it. His uncle didn't mention it anymore. As for the second aunt, she was so happy that he was alone, and she didn't care about it at all.

Zhao Weicheng knew that his love for Yun Yi might not have been purely love, It might have been an unwillingness to let go. And as time passed, this unwillingness gradually faded. But he was used to it. There was nothing wrong with being alone! Zhao Weicheng thought this as he looked at people flocking to his cousin.

Until that day, he stopped by a coffee shop due to the pouring rain. He met a woman wearing a long linen dress who rushed while on a call. "Making me go on a blind date… I will just go teach!" Then, she hung up the phone and started to organize her things.

Zhao Weicheng suddenly remembered his only blind date experience. It was her! A name and face gradually became clear in his heart.
