In the restaurant, Yu Weiya stared at Fang Yan who is sitting across from her. She could see that there is something wrong with this lass, always in a trance, like she is now. Her head lowered as she moved the food back and forth in her bowl.
“Hey, hey! What are you doing? Did you have any grudge with the food?” Yu Weiya nudged her.
“Huh?!” Fang Yan looked up in surprise and saw Yu Weiya gesture for her to look down?” Only then did Fang Yan noticed that while she was playing with the food, it doesn’t look appetizing anymore. Her already non-existent appetite slowly disappeared and in the end, she put down her chopsticks in resignation.
“What’s going on with you, being so inattentive.” Seeing her like this, Yu Weiya followed suit and put down her chopsticks.

“There’s….there’s nothing going on, I’m perfectly fine.” Fang Yan lowered her head and drank the glass of water, guiltily looking elsewhere.“Perfectly fine?” Yu Weiya snorted, “I wonder who it was who has been so absent-minded that she almost burned herself while trying to get water, hasn’t even finished half of the simplest plan and when eating out, made a big mess on the table. If others saw it, they would’ve thought I brought a child with me.”
Fang Yan quickly took a few paper napkins and quickly cleaned up the mess on the table.
Fang Yan doesn’t know what is going on with Zheng Weiqian recently. Right now, when they bump into each other, they would be like strangers and don’t even say a word of greeting.
“Tell me, jiejie will try to help you figure out the origin.” Yu Weiya said as if she had experienced it before.
“Tch, what nonsense are you spouting!” Fang Yan smiled, grateful for Yu Weiya’s concern. However, she doesn’t intend to tell her what is going on because she doesn’t even know what is bothering her.
“I’m fine. I didn’t sleep well last night so I’m a bit distracted.” Fang Yan casually made up an excuse.
“Really?” Although Yu Weiya doesn’t fully believe her, since the other party doesn’t want to say it, then she won’t force her.
“Yes ah!” Fang Yan changed the topic, “It’s almost time, let’s go back.”
When she saw that she has no objections, Fang Yan waved her hand to get the bill from the waiter until Yu Weiya suddenly pulled her hand down.
“What are you doing?” Fang Yan asked in puzzlement.
“Look, isn’t that person Shen Mulin. Who is that woman with her? What does she look so familiar?” Yu Weiya pointed at a table behind Fang Yan not too far from them.
Fang Yan turned and followed where she is pointing at. At one glance she could recognize that lady as Linshi president’s wife––Chen Hanyin.
What is she doing here? And why is she with Shen Mulin? Fang Yan had a bad feeling in her heart.
“Let’s go.” Fang Yan doesn’t want to stay here. When she first notice that lady, she only thought about quickly leaving.
“But I feel like that woman looks very familiar. She looks like….” Yu Weiya muttered.
“I remember now, she is Chen Hanyin. Lin Zhenyang’s wife, Lin Xuanxuan’s mother.” After much difficulty, Yu Weiya finally figured out why she looks so familiar. “But, why is she with Secretary Shen?”
“Oh, really?” Fang Yan indifferently said, “Let’s go, the break is almost over.”
“Wait, let’s hear what they have to say.” Yu Weiya nosily said.
Not far from them, Chen Hanyin glared at Shen Mulin and sharply said, “You took my money, did you forget what you promised me?”
“I didn’t forget.” How could she have forgotten what happened that year?
“Then why are you still seeing Yifan?”
“I’m not.”
“No? Then are you saying I’m blind? The person hobnobbing with him last night wasn’t you?” Last night, she went to her friend’s house to play mahjong but she didn’t expect to see her son with this girl intimately holding hands making her mood go down. In the end, she lost a hundred thousand.
“Yesterday we bumped into each other, I didn’t go to look for him.” Yesterday
“Do you think I will believe you? You this type of woman will always try to marry into rich and powerful families and pretend to be a phoenix. Let me tell you, as long as I don’t agree, don’t even think about entering Lin family in this life.” Chen Hanyin disdainfully stared at her.
“Whether you believe it or not, what I said is true.” After hearing these words before, Shen Mulin had grown immune to it.
“Humph.” Chen Hanyin looked at her disdainfully and took a check out of her bag, “Name your price, but you must promise, once you receive the money, you must immediately leave Shanghai. I don’t want you to appear in front of us, especially Yifan.”
Shen Mulin stared straight at her. She never thought that she would use the same method to force her to leave, just like that year when she bought her love.

Chen Hanyin saw that she didn’t speak and sneered, “You must know how much you are really worth. Don’t even think about trying to rob me in broad daylight.” She shook her head and continued, “You are not that valuable.”“Last time, you bought my love. This time, I won’t sell my dignity.” Shen Mulin said as she firmly stared at her.
“Heh. Dignity really is too funny. What dignity do you have left after you took my money last time.”
“Does Madame Lin know what she is doing. Trying to buy your son’s love and try to make him live a life he doesn’t even want, controlling him in your own hands. Then you drive me away from him and step on my dignity. Why does Madame Lin have such a beautiful face but a cold heart.” Shen Mulin calmly said as she tightly clenched her fist.
“You–––” Chen Hanyin never thought that there would be a day where Shen Mulin would go against her. This had never happened before.
“Or could it be that you couldn’t even achieve your own happiness and don’t want anyone else to get theirs too. Even towards your son you–––”
A crisp slap stopped Shen Mulin’s speech. Everyone in the restaurant looked over. Fang Yan and Yu Weiya, who was sitting next to them, were shocked by the sudden turn of events.
“What qualifications do you have to say that. Stop sticking close to my son, you are not worthy of him.” Chen Hanyin fiercely glared at her.
Shen Mulin clutched her face and sneered, “It looks like I hit a nerve. What Yifan said is correct, you never received your husband’s love.”
“You–––” Chen Hanyin raised her hand, wanting to slap her. However, before her hand could go down, someone caught her hand. Chan Hanyin turned around, wanting to see who is the person who dared to stop her from teaching this brat a lesson.
“You––Fang, Fang Yu?” Chen Hanyin stared at Fang Yan in astonishment.
“Madame Lin, what you are doing is out of your identity.” Fang Yan suddenly thought that this is what happened that year when they forced her mother away. She angrily flung away her hand.
“Secretary Shen, are you okay?” Yu Weiya worriedly asked. Shen Mulin blankly stared at them and shook her head.
No, she is not Fang Yu. Right now, Fang Yu should be around the same age as her, she can’t be in her twenties.
“You are Fang Yan.” Chen Hanyin narrowed her eyes at her.
Fang Yan didn’t look at her and said to Yu Weiya and Shen Mulin, “Let’s go.”
“I haven’t finished speaking, no one is allowed to leave.” When she saw that they are going to leave, then wouldn’t she have come here in vain?
“If you want Linshi to appear on the headlines tomorrow, then I don’t mind you blocking our path.” Fang Yan’s voice isn’t too loud but it successfully dispelled Chen Hanyin’s idea of holding them back.
“You–––” Chen Hanyin could only watch them leave. What she said is correct, if the reporters photographed them quarreling, then the Lin Family would lose face.
