Transcript

00:00:00I tried everything I could to get Leanne, the most beautiful girl, in college.

00:00:04I eventually married her.

00:00:06But even after three years of marriage, our relationship never truly blossomed.

00:00:10She claimed she had a severe cleanliness obsession called misophobia

00:00:14and was undergoing psychological treatment for it.

00:00:17She would constantly ask for time.

00:00:19Once I kissed her on the lips, but her reaction was so intense

00:00:22that she ran straight to the bathroom to vomit her.

00:00:25Although she explained that it was just a physical reaction

00:00:28and had nothing to do with me, I was still devastated.

00:00:32And in the fourth year of our marriage, her company sent her abroad

00:00:35and we were separated for a whole year.

00:00:37On our fifth wedding anniversary, I decided to go abroad to surprise her.

00:00:42But when I got off the flight and arrived at her company's restaurant,

00:00:44the scene I witnessed at the restaurant next door changed my world.

00:00:48I saw Leanne booking a hotel room for another man.

00:00:52Standing outside the glass wall of the restaurant,

00:00:55I stared at her holding a bouquet of roses.

00:00:57A man in a suit stood next to her.

00:01:00They were laughing and talking.

00:01:02I had never seen Lioruyan smile so gently.

00:01:05It was as if all his coldness and distance had suddenly melted away.

00:01:09The love in his eyes as he spoke to me was something I had never seen for myself.

00:01:14In that moment, something inside me broke.

00:01:16After a long while, Ruyuan's gaze fell on me.

00:01:18The smile on her face slowly disappeared.

00:01:20She whispered something to the man and walked towards me with an umbrella.

00:01:24Leanne, why are you here?

00:01:25Her voice held a hint of displeasure.

00:01:28Not joy at my arrival.

00:01:30I forced a smile and handed her the bouquet.

00:01:33Happy fifth anniversary, Ruyuan.

00:01:35But before she could even pick up the flowers, I heard the man's voice in the distance.

00:01:39Ruyuan, the meeting is about to start.

00:01:41Ruyuan looked at me and said calmly,

00:01:43Come inside with me first.

00:01:45And then turned back.

00:01:46I stood there for a moment, then followed her.

00:01:49On the way, I learned that the man's name was Shah Chuha and that he was very close to Ruyuan.

00:01:54I tried several times to talk to Ruyuan alone, but Sean would always interrupt.

00:01:58Finally, when we reached the door of the meeting room, he looked at me and suddenly said something in Spanish.

00:02:03Ruyuan replied in Spanish.

00:02:05Both of them thought I didn't understand their language.

00:02:07But little did they know that five years ago, I had secretly learned Spanish just to get closer to Ruyuan.

00:02:13What they said meant something.

00:02:15Is this the man you married?

00:02:17Yes, but that's not important anymore.

00:02:20Hearing those words completely broke my heart.

00:02:22Before entering the meeting room, Ruyuan said coldly,

00:02:24I have a meeting.

00:02:25You wait here.

00:02:27He wasn't behaving like a husband, but like a stranger.

00:02:30I bent down and stared at the wilting roses in my hands.

00:02:34They were exactly like our relationship, on one hand.

00:02:37Love had lasted for five years, but in the end, there was nothing but emptiness.

00:02:42I wiped the raindrops from my face and threw the bouquet in the trash.

00:02:46I was tempted to return to China right away, but I thought I should at least ask him the truth.

00:02:51I didn't realize this wait would take two full hours.

00:02:54After the meeting I went with Liu Ruyuan to his home in England.

00:02:58It was a single apartment provided by the Research Institute.

00:03:01The room was impeccably clean, and everything was neatly arranged.

00:03:05Liu Ruyuan brought me a pair of new slippers.

00:03:08Just as I was about to put them on, I noticed another pair of men's slippers next to the shoe.

00:03:12They were exactly the same design as the women's slippers Liu Ruyuan was wearing.

00:03:17I saw your I've ordered new toiletries online for you, she said.

00:03:21Go rest for a while.

00:03:22Then she asked, you haven't eaten yet, right?

00:03:25I'll make you some noodles.

00:03:28I nodded.

00:03:29She always spoke to me with such politeness and distance sense.

00:03:32Even her politeness felt like a wall between us.

00:03:35The long flight had exhausted me.

00:03:37I settled on the living room sofa.

00:03:39Then my eyes fell on her phone lying on the coffee table.

00:03:42The screen suddenly lit up.

00:03:44The phone was right next to me, so I could clearly see that the sender's name was Jachan.

00:03:49In five years of marriage, I had never checked her phone.

00:03:52But then something happened.

00:03:54I picked up the phone.

00:03:55The message read,

00:03:56If you had decided to come to me earlier, the person sitting next to you today might have been me.

00:04:01Seeing these words, the last remaining hope in my heart vanished.

00:04:04Now, I was completely convinced that Xiao Chen was the man Liu Ruyan had once loved him he of.

00:04:10After a few seconds, the screen turned off.

00:04:12But then my eyes fell on her wallpaper.

00:04:14That Xiao Chen, there was a picture of her wearing a graduation gown.

00:04:17My wife's phone wallpaper had been a picture of her ex-boyfriend for five years.

00:04:21At that moment, I fully understood for the first time how small my status was in Liu Ruyan's world.

00:04:26A soft sound of utensils came from the kitchen.

00:04:29I put the phone back and acted as if I hadn't seen anything.

00:04:33Then I walked towards the kitchen.

00:04:35Liu Ruyan didn't even look at me.

00:04:37She simply offered me chopsticks.

00:04:39If you don't like the taste, don't force it.

00:04:41I took the chopsticks and asked,

00:04:44Softly, can you tell me the truth about the relationship between you and Xiao Chen?

00:04:47Liu, Ruuran, replied calmly.

00:04:49Xiao Chen is my ex-boyfriend.

00:04:51We were together for eight years.

00:04:52We were almost married.

00:04:54But later, our dreams and goals diverged.

00:04:57He wanted to pursue a career abroad.

00:04:59And I decided to stay in China.

00:05:01His voice sounded normal.

00:05:02But I could clearly feel the slight tremor in it.

00:05:05I bowed my head and asked again, eating noodles.

00:05:08That was it.

00:05:09There was a moment of silence.

00:05:10But this time, too, she didn't respond.

00:05:12It was late at night.

00:05:14We were both lying on the same bed.

00:05:16But as always, on different sides when Lurian.

00:05:18Lurian suddenly reached out and grabbed mine.

00:05:21Despite sleeping in the same bed while in China, she always avoided my touch.

00:05:26This was the first time she had ever held my hand.

00:05:28I thought maybe now she would explain everything that had happened that day.

00:05:32But she said, yes, Monet, I've made it.

00:05:34Decision.

00:05:35I'm going to settle here.

00:05:37My hands went cold.

00:05:38When she had come to England a year earlier, she had said it was just a short business trip.

00:05:43Then it stretched from one week to the next.

00:05:45I had stayed in China, taking care of her parents.

00:05:47Always hoping that one day she would return.

00:05:51But now in a very quiet voice, she was telling me that she wanted to stay here forever.

00:05:55I knew she wasn't waiting for me and at that moment, I had no strength left to stop her.

00:06:00I said softly, okay, it just rains a lot here.

00:06:03Take care of yourself.

00:06:05When I gave in so easily, I felt a sense of relief.

00:06:07She was probably surprised.

00:06:08She held my hand tighter.

00:06:11Oh, Monet didn't reply.

00:06:13She just closed her eyes because I had already made my final decision.

00:06:17I was going back alone.

00:06:19And the truth was, I never told her that I hated the rain.

00:06:24As the night deepened, Liu Ruyan's phone vibrated repeatedly.

00:06:27I knew these messages were from Xiao Chun.

00:06:30After a while, Liu Ruyan slowly got out of bed and said to me in a low voice,

00:06:34Xiao Chun saw his ex-wife cheating on him on a rainy and stormy night.

00:06:37That's why he's so afraid of thunder and lightning now.

00:06:40I have to go to him.

00:06:42I'll be back soon.

00:06:44Perhaps she wanted to comfort me, but I didn't respond and pretended to be asleep.

00:06:49Although no one knew better than me that this time I wasn't going to wait for her.

00:06:53After she left, I got out of bed.

00:06:56I picked up the phone at 4 o'clock and booked the first flight back to China for 4 o

00:07:00'clock in the morning.

00:07:00Then I left.

00:07:01I opened the pack and took out five beautifully packaged gift boxes.

00:07:05Each box had a special date written on it.

00:07:07I arranged them neatly on the table.

00:07:09Then I recorded a voice message in Spanish for Liu Ru.

00:07:12I sent it as soon as the recording was complete.

00:07:15Ten hours later, the plane landed at Beijing Capital International Airport.

00:07:19I slowly opened my eyes.

00:07:21There was no fatigue from the long flight.

00:07:22Only a strange languid piece in my eyes.

00:07:25Outside the window, I could see Beijing and March.

00:07:27The other sky looked exactly like the endless Edinburgh rain.

00:07:31That presses on my chest like a heavy stone, making it difficult to breathe.

00:07:35I had turned off my phone before boarding the plane at London, Heathrow Airport.

00:07:39Now its black screen reflected my own reflection.

00:07:43Deep dark circles under my eyes and an unkempt beard growing on my chin.

00:07:47Thirteen years.

00:07:48Thirteen years.

00:07:49Eight years of obsessively pursuing someone.

00:07:52Five years of marriage in name only.

00:07:53Finally, my entire youth.

00:07:55My entire passion.

00:07:56Everything was spent on Lyon.

00:07:58And finally, I had nothing.

00:08:00I didn't even come.

00:08:00Leaving only emptiness and brokenness.

00:08:02While unloading my luggage, a passenger accidentally bumped into me.

00:08:05He panicked and apologized repeatedly.

00:08:07I simply nodded my head.

00:08:09My voice so hoarse as if it had been rubbed against sand.

00:08:13After much effort, only two words came out of my mouth.

00:08:15It's okay.

00:08:16I got up and opened the overhead luggage compartment.

00:08:19Inside were just a few simple clothes and nothing else.

00:08:22When I left for England, my suitcase was packed.

00:08:25It contained Liu Ruhian's fifth wedding anniversary gift.

00:08:28German-made surgical instruments.

00:08:29She had long coveted.

00:08:31Her favorite Chinese sweets.

00:08:34There were also local specialty items for her parents.

00:08:37But when I returned, all those things were gone.

00:08:40Like the red roses I wanted to give her.

00:08:43Those roses, drenched and withered, in the rain were finally thrown into the trash.

00:08:47And with them, my last hope for thirteen years of love was buried.

00:08:51Forever in that rainy city.

00:08:54Like my own family, I had lost the person who had given me thirteen years of love.

00:08:57I had loved Liu Ruhian for years.

00:08:59As I exited the airport terminal, a crowd of people surged through me.

00:09:02Some held placards bearing the names of their loved ones.

00:09:05Others were scurrying to find someone in the crowd.

00:09:08Friends reunited after years were smiling and embracing.

00:09:11Children were laughing happily.

00:09:12And relatives were inquiring about each other's well-being.

00:09:15All around was a vibrant atmosphere filled with noise and excitement.

00:09:18But all this hustle and bustle had nothing to do with me.

00:09:20I walked with heavy steps like a lost soul, lost in the world slowly, fading into the crowd.

00:09:26Even my reflection seemed filled with loneliness and desolation.

00:09:30Reaching a secluded corner, I finally turned on my phone.

00:09:34The next moment, countless missed calls and messages flooded my phone.

00:09:37The phone vibrated continuously, making my palms tingle.

00:09:40They were all from Liu Ruhian.

00:09:42In just a few hours between my boarding the plane and my landing, he had called thirty-seven times and

00:09:46sent nearly one hundred messages.

00:09:48My fingers paused for a moment on the screen.

00:09:50Sheila.

00:09:50But I didn't even unlock the call.

00:09:52Without hesitation and without any emotional turmoil, I blacklisted the number.

00:09:57I knew by heart.

00:09:59After that, messages from her kept popping up in my WeChat window.

00:10:02Initially, she asked,

00:10:04Where have you been?

00:10:05I've seen the gift box.

00:10:06What does that mean?

00:10:07Then came the panicked messages.

00:10:09Ammo.

00:10:10Reply to my message.

00:10:11Don't go.

00:10:12We can sit and talk.

00:10:13And finally, a politeness.

00:10:15I'd never seen from her before.

00:10:17Um, I made a mistake.

00:10:18Please come back.

00:10:20I was wrong.

00:10:21I was wrong.

00:10:22These three words stung my eyes.

00:10:24Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on my lips.

00:10:26A smile that mixed sarcasm, stubbornness, and deep sorrow.

00:10:30I was wrong.

00:10:31Where was Liu Ruhian wrong?

00:10:32She simply never loved me.

00:10:35She was never wrong.

00:10:36In fact, she had been comfortably enjoying my thirteen years of unwavering devotion.

00:10:40While showering all her love, affection, and tenderness on another man.

00:10:44I opened the settings.

00:10:46Her acquaintances, I found the profile, photo, and clicked delete contact.

00:10:49As soon as the confirmation pop-up appeared, I immediately pressed confirm.

00:10:53A thirteen-year-old obsession was completely destroyed by my own hands in that very moment.

00:10:56As I left the terminal, I realized that Beijing in March was still holding up to the chill of a

00:11:01late winter.

00:11:01Winter?

00:11:02Winter.

00:11:03The cold wind stung like a knife against my face.

00:11:06I hailed a taxi and gave her the address of the house where Liu Ruhian, and I had lived together

00:11:10for the past five years.

00:11:12I had designed that house myself.

00:11:13During that time, I spent countless nights making adjustments to the plans, making attention to every detail.

00:11:18To give her the perfect home, every corner of the house was designed to her liking and habits.

00:11:24She had a strong obsession with cleanliness, therefore the highest quality, high germ-rim-free, and environmentally friendly building materials

00:11:31were used throughout the house.

00:11:32Even the cracks and corners were specially designed to prevent dust from accumulating pay.

00:11:37She had been undergoing surgery for several years and also had back problems, therefore the kitchen, the counter, and bathroom

00:11:43washbasin were custom-made to fit her high-tide.

00:11:46The large glass windows in the living room faced the hospital where she worked simply because she had once casually

00:11:51mentioned that she loved watching the sun set.

00:11:55But in the past five years, she had spent less than a year in this house altogether.

00:11:59She was always working overtime at the hospital, always busy with some surgery or another, always attending some academic conference.

00:12:06Even when she came home, her demeanor maintained a polite yet cold distance.

00:12:11It felt as if there was an invisible glass wall between us.

00:12:14She was extremely reluctant to even offer a simple hug or touch.

00:12:18I arrived at the apartment downstairs.

00:12:19I paid the taxi fare, got off, and looked at that familiar building.

00:12:23The 17th floor, the same window, that had once glowed with light waiting for my return, waiting for my return.

00:12:29The same place I considered my final resting place.

00:12:31Today, it was completely dark.

00:12:33Suddenly, everything felt strange.

00:12:36I took the elevator up, opened the door with my fingerprint, and clicked.

00:12:39The door swung open.

00:12:40The house was exactly as I had left it.

00:12:43Impeccably clean.

00:12:44Everything neatly arranged.

00:12:46Every corner reflected Lou Ryan's habits.

00:12:48Her white sneakers and high heels were neatly arranged in the shoe rack in the entryway.

00:12:53While my slippers were tucked away in a corner as if they were just a mismatched and unnecessary decoration in

00:12:57this house.

00:12:59I changed my shoes and went into the living room, tossed my bag on the sofa, and sank into the

00:13:03soft cushions closing my eyes.

00:13:04The fatigue of the long flight.

00:13:06Thirteen years of grievances.

00:13:08Resentments.

00:13:08A broken heart.

00:13:09At that moment, everything crashed upon me like a flood, after a dam broke.

00:13:13I felt like crying, but my eyes were dry and filled with pain.

00:13:18Not a single tear escaped.

00:13:20Perhaps this is the deepest pain of a broken heart.

00:13:22I don't know how long I sat there in the darkness.

00:13:25The neon lights of the city had flickered on outside the window, and then slowly my mind began to calm

00:13:29down.

00:13:29Then suddenly the doorbell rang.

00:13:32Once again.

00:13:33The second time.

00:13:34The voice was hesitant and shy.

00:13:35I froze, but didn't move.

00:13:38Who could have come looking for me so late at night?

00:13:40I couldn't imagine.

00:13:41The doorbell rang a few more times.

00:13:43Then a soft female voice rang from outside the door.

00:13:45Her voice was as light as a feather, but it struck me straight in the heart.

00:13:50Emo.

00:13:50Are you home?

00:13:51The voice was both familiar and strange.

00:13:54I remained silent for a few seconds.

00:13:55Then I got up, walked to the door, and opened it.

00:13:58Sun was standing outside.

00:14:00She was wearing a light beige cashmere coat and holding a thermos.

00:14:04Her long black hair was slightly disheveled by the wind, and her fair cheeks were slightly reddened by the cold.

00:14:09Her eyes lit up for a moment when she saw me, but the next moment they faded again.

00:14:14The pain hidden in those eyes couldn't be hidden from anyone.

00:14:16Jingyan, why are you here?

00:14:18I asked.

00:14:19My voice was still heavy and heavy, with a hint of uneasiness tinged in it.

00:14:24Saching had known me for 24 years.

00:14:26When we both met, we were little children running and playing in the same courtyard.

00:14:29Ever since then, she'd always followed me around, calling me Baya Amuka Amuk.

00:14:34She'd seen me transform from a cheerful, carefree boy into the broken, exhausted man I am today.

00:14:40Seeing her, her heart felt like it was being pricked with needles.

00:14:43It hurt so much that even breathing became difficult.

00:14:46I've been trying to call you for days, but I can't get through.

00:14:48She said, softly,

00:14:51Ank just told me you went to England.

00:14:54Her voice was soft, as if she was afraid she might hurt me.

00:14:57Further?

00:14:58I thought you'd return today.

00:14:59That's why I came here every day, waiting for you.

00:15:02She lifted the thermos in her hand.

00:15:05I've made millet porridge.

00:15:06Your stomach has always been weak.

00:15:08You probably haven't eaten properly on such a long flight.

00:15:11A faint smile appeared on her face.

00:15:14It was as gentle as a spring breeze.

00:15:15I stared at her, and suddenly I felt a crack open in that long, frozen, barren field of my heart.

00:15:22A faint warmth slowly seeped in through that crack.

00:15:26For the past five years, I had lived entirely for Liu Ruyan.

00:15:29For her sake, I hid my identity, suppressed my radiance,

00:15:33and distanced myself from almost all my old friends and relationships.

00:15:36But she remained, and in my knowledge, on every holiday, she would send me greetings.

00:15:41Sometimes she would even send something I liked, or a small gift, and I would often simply reply

00:15:46with a formality.

00:15:47Sometimes I wouldn't even reply to her messages.

00:15:49Yet she never left.

00:15:51I stepped aside, and let her in.

00:15:54Su Ching-in walked straight into the dining room in a familiar manner.

00:15:57She opened the thermos, scooped hot millet porridge into a bowl, and brought it with her.

00:16:01She placed some light dishes in front of me.

00:16:03Eat quickly, it's hot.

00:16:04It will satisfy your stomach.

00:16:05I sat down at the table.

00:16:07The steam rising from the bowl suddenly.

00:16:08It brought back memories of that night in the apartment in England.

00:16:11Liu Ruyan had also made noodles for me that night.

00:16:13They were bitter and cold, whereas the simple, simple dish was placed before me, was placed

00:16:17before me.

00:16:18A bowl of porridge.

00:16:19It was causing a slight burning sensation in my nose, and enough to make my eyes moist.

00:16:23I picked up a spoon, and slowly began to eat.

00:16:26The hot porridge sank into my stomach, spreading warm throughout my body.

00:16:29The chill in my body slowly disappeared, and the thick layer of ice on my heart began to

00:16:34melt, though.

00:16:36Su Ching sat across from me, watching me silently.

00:16:37She didn't ask what happened.

00:16:39In England, she didn't even try to find out how my relationship with Liu Ruyan ended.

00:16:44She simply supported me silently, because she knew me so well.

00:16:48I may have appeared calm and gentle on the outside, but deep inside I was a complete genius.

00:16:53There was no point in asking the things.

00:16:55I didn't want to say.

00:16:56At this moment I didn't need questions or comforting words.

00:16:59It's just someone's quiet companionship.

00:17:02After finishing a bowl of porridge, I put down the spoon, raised my head, and softly said,

00:17:08Qingyan.

00:17:08Su Qingyan smiled, and as she packed up the dishes said, Why be so formal with me?

00:17:13We've grown up together since childhood.

00:17:15She paused for a moment, but finally couldn't stop herself.

00:17:17Her voice was soft, but every word came from the heart.

00:17:20Amo, don't torture yourself anymore for those who don't deserve your love.

00:17:25My fingers paused slightly.

00:17:28After a moment of silence, I slowly nodded.

00:17:30My voice was quiet, but it held a firmness I'd never felt before.

00:17:35I know thirteen.

00:17:36Ears is enough.

00:17:37I don't want to waste any more time.

00:17:40Su Qing looked at me in disbelief.

00:17:42Now, she'd been waiting for these words for five whole years.

00:17:46Yes, I replied softly.

00:17:48The dead silence in my eyes finally began to lift, replaced by a faint glimmer of hope.

00:17:53I had given up on her.

00:17:55I had truly decided to move on.

00:17:58Just then my phone rang.

00:18:00Two words flashed on the screen.

00:18:01Papa.

00:18:02My fingers paused for a moment.

00:18:05Then I answered.

00:18:07Hello, Papa.

00:18:08Shen Jimshan's steady commanding voice came from the other end.

00:18:12His voice held more emotion.

00:18:14But I could sense the worry and pain hidden within her.

00:18:18Amo, you're back in China.

00:18:19I just arrived.

00:18:21Come to the old house.

00:18:23Your mother and I are here.

00:18:24Shen Jimshan's tone was such that it left no room for argument.

00:18:28There are some important things I need to talk to you about.

00:18:31I remained silent for a few seconds, then said,

00:18:33Okay, and hung up.

00:18:35Meanwhile, Su Qingya had cleared the table.

00:18:37She looked at me and said,

00:18:39Uncle and Auntie must be very upset.

00:18:41You should go and see them.

00:18:42I'll pack up a little and leave.

00:18:45Don't worry.

00:18:47There's no need to pack anything.

00:18:48Just leave it like this.

00:18:50I got up, picked up my coat, and said,

00:18:52I'll drop you off.

00:18:53Downstairs.

00:18:53There's no need.

00:18:56Su Qingya pushed me toward the door, smiling.

00:18:58I'll go myself.

00:19:00You better hurry up.

00:19:01Don't keep Auntie waiting any longer.

00:19:03Then she paused and said,

00:19:04And if anything happens, call me anytime.

00:19:07You still remember my number, right?

00:19:08She deliberately emphasized the last sentence.

00:19:11She was afraid that all these years my world had revolved solely around Yuliu,

00:19:15and that I'd even forgotten her number.

00:19:17I looked into her eyes.

00:19:19A warmth slowly spread within, within my heart.

00:19:21I smiled and nodded.

00:19:23I remember.

00:19:24Don't worry.

00:19:24After Su Qingyang left, I stood at the entrance.

00:19:28I looked at that house for the last time.

00:19:30The house that had housed my five-year marriage and thirteen years of passion.

00:19:34But now, there was no attachment left in my heart.

00:19:36No regrets.

00:19:38No attachment.

00:19:39Only relief, complete and true.

00:19:41I turned, closed the door, and pressed the elevator button.

00:19:44This time, I didn't look back.

00:19:46Just as I would never again look back at the past, which had been called Liuliu,

00:19:51the Shan family mansion was located in a quiet and luxurious villa zone in the western hills of Beijing.

00:19:56This place was considered one of the residences of Beijing's most prestigious and influential families,

00:20:00and I drove in through the main entrance.

00:20:03The butler was already waiting for me at the door.

00:20:06He respectfully opened the car door.

00:20:08Young master, you, I'm back.

00:20:10The master and mistress are waiting for you in the living room.

00:20:13I nodded.

00:20:13I got out of the car and went inside the villa.

00:20:16The living room was filled with warm yellow light.

00:20:19Shen Jimshen was sitting on the sofa, reading a financial newspaper.

00:20:22And as soon as I entered my mother, Linhuan immediately stood up.

00:20:25Her eyes turned red in an instant.

00:20:28Amo, you're finally back.

00:20:29She quickly walked over to me and touched my face.

00:20:32The pain was evident in her eyes.

00:20:35Look at you.

00:20:36You've only been gone for a few days.

00:20:38But how did you get so thin?

00:20:39Did someone treat you badly?

00:20:41Seeing the worry in my mother's eyes, my nose burned slightly.

00:20:44I reached out and hugged her.

00:20:46Mom, I'm fine.

00:20:47I'm sorry for worrying you and dad.

00:20:50You're my son.

00:20:52Linhuan patted my back.

00:20:53Her voice was choked.

00:20:55How can I not worry seeing you like this?

00:20:58Back then you were so adamant that you had to marry Ruyan.

00:21:01You hid your true identity just to win her love.

00:21:05I couldn't stop you.

00:21:06But you've endured so much in these five years.

00:21:08Do you think your father and I didn't know anything?

00:21:11My body went slightly stiff.

00:21:13I always thought I hid everything so well.

00:21:16But perhaps nothing can be hidden from parents' eyes.

00:21:18I fell in love with Liu Ruyan at first sight.

00:21:21That day I was driving somewhere.

00:21:23Suddenly I saw a crowd of people gathered on the street.

00:21:26Curious, I made my way through the crowd and then I saw her.

00:21:30Tsiya Yoyame.

00:21:31Wearing a white doctor's coat.

00:21:32She was kneeling on the ground.

00:21:34She was giving CPR to an injured person,

00:21:36unmindful of the blood and broken glass surrounding her.

00:21:39There was unwavering determination in her eyes

00:21:41and a glow radiated from her whole personality.

00:21:43I was completely captivated by her in that very moment.

00:21:46Later I searched everywhere for her information.

00:21:48Then I learned that she was one of the youngest surgeons at City Hospital.

00:21:53Her medical skills were exceptional

00:21:54and her demeanor was cool and detached.

00:21:57One day I overheard her talking to a colleague.

00:21:59She was saying that she didn't like spoiled boys from wealthy families.

00:22:03According to her, they only used their family power to swindle

00:22:07and had no real talent.

00:22:09She also said that she would never marry into a wealthy family.

00:22:13She simply wanted to live a simple life with a simple, honest man.

00:22:17Because of this one sentence,

00:22:19I concealed my identity as the Shen family's sole heir.

00:22:22To the world, I presented myself as just an ordinary architectural designer

00:22:25with a normal salary, a normal apartment, and a normal car worth about 200,000 yuan.

00:22:31I transformed myself into exactly the kind of person Liu Rouyan wanted.

00:22:34A simple, honest, and ordinary man.

00:22:37I spent eight years trying to melt her ice-cold feelings.

00:22:41Even though she always kept her distance from me.

00:22:44Even though she was so obsessed with cleanliness

00:22:46that she avoided even holding hands.

00:22:48Still, I never gave up.

00:22:50Everyone told me that Liu Rouyan didn't care about me.

00:22:53But I didn't listen to anyone.

00:22:55I always believed that if I was dedicated enough,

00:22:57her heart would melt one day, one day.

00:23:00For five years of our marriage, I held her in high esteem.

00:23:03She had a passion for cleanliness, so I did all the household chores.

00:23:07Every day, the house was sparkling clean before she returned.

00:23:10Hot water was always ready.

00:23:11I cooked her favorite meals,

00:23:13even thoroughly disinfecting the utensils beforehand.

00:23:16When her parents fell ill and were hospitalized,

00:23:18I served them like a son, caring for them day and night to me.

00:23:22When she was treated unfairly at the hospital,

00:23:24or when her colleagues harassed her,

00:23:26I quietly used the Shen family's influence and connections

00:23:30to clear the way for her,

00:23:31so she could focus on her medical research and career without worry.

00:23:36But she always believed that all this was due to her fate

00:23:39and her own abilities.

00:23:41For her, I gave up the opportunity to study abroad.

00:23:44I gave up the opportunity to take over the family business.

00:23:46I gave up the life that should have been mine

00:23:49and became the man who stood behind her for 13 years without any identity.

00:23:53Hmm.

00:23:54But I finally understood that

00:23:55a heart that has no love for you

00:23:57can never be proud.

00:23:58The marriage I held, Moe's,

00:24:00precious to her, was just a convenience of war.

00:24:03A compromise.

00:24:04A hollow shell.

00:24:05A mask to show the world.

00:24:08Sit down.

00:24:08Let's talk.

00:24:09Shen Jingshan put down the newspaper.

00:24:11His face was as calm as ever,

00:24:13but today it lacked its previous sternness.

00:24:16I left my mother and sat on the sofa.

00:24:18I know everything that happened in England,

00:24:21Shen Jingshan said calmly.

00:24:22But there was a command in his voice that couldn't.

00:24:25Be ignored, Mea.

00:24:27I know everything about that Shan too.

00:24:29And what Liu Ryan did too.

00:24:31I looked at him in surprise.

00:24:33You thought you could go to England hiding your identity

00:24:35and I wouldn't know anything?

00:24:37He let out a soft, cold laugh.

00:24:39You're my son.

00:24:40Shen Jingshan's son.

00:24:41How can I not keep an eye on your every move?

00:24:43My people were around you

00:24:45when you were standing in front of the Edinburgh Institute.

00:24:47If you hadn't stopped me,

00:24:49I would have sent people long ago.

00:24:51Hearing this, my throat choked.

00:24:53I couldn't speak.

00:24:54I always thought I was the only one

00:24:55who knew about my suffering and humiliation

00:24:57over the past five years.

00:24:59But I didn't know that my parents

00:25:00had been witnessing it all

00:25:02and felt the pain with me every time.

00:25:04They never spoke to me about it

00:25:06just to avoid hurting my self-respect.

00:25:10Dad, my voice choked.

00:25:12I'm sorry.

00:25:12I let you down.

00:25:14Disappointed,

00:25:15Shen Zishan looked at me.

00:25:17This time, his tone was softer.

00:25:19You didn't let us down.

00:25:20You were just very young

00:25:21and love blinded you.

00:25:24Every man makes mistakes in life.

00:25:26The important thing is to turn back in time.

00:25:29After a pause, he continued.

00:25:31At that time,

00:25:31you insisted on marrying that same girl.

00:25:33You insisted on living a normal life.

00:25:35Your mother and I could have stopped you,

00:25:38but we didn't

00:25:39because we wanted you to see

00:25:40the true nature of people

00:25:41by hitting the wall yourself.

00:25:43Now you've hit the wall.

00:25:45You've been injured.

00:25:46It's time to wake up.

00:25:48I nodded slowly.

00:25:49I'm awake.

00:25:51Seeing the determination in my eyes,

00:25:53Shen Zishan nodded with satisfaction.

00:25:55A glint of approval flashed in his eyes.

00:25:57Then he slid a file in front of me.

00:25:59Now that you're awake,

00:26:01let's move on.

00:26:02This is information about

00:26:03the Shen Group's medical and healthcare sector.

00:26:05Our group has been working

00:26:06in the medical field

00:26:07for the past 20 years.

00:26:08We control the entire industry chain,

00:26:10including drug research,

00:26:11medical equipment manufacturing,

00:26:12private hospitals,

00:26:13and the healthcare industry.

00:26:15See for yourself the scale.

00:26:17I opened the file,

00:26:18and my eyes widened.

00:26:19I only knew that the Shen family

00:26:21had become wealthy

00:26:21through real estate and finance,

00:26:23but I had no idea

00:26:24their influence in the medical field

00:26:26was so vast.

00:26:27Nearly half of the country's

00:26:29top private hospitals

00:26:29were owned by the Shen Group.

00:26:31Even the city hospital

00:26:33where Lian worked

00:26:33was controlled by

00:26:35one of the Shen family's

00:26:36biggest investors,

00:26:37and that was

00:26:38just the beginning.

00:26:40Yuangyo Pharmaceuticals,

00:26:41a subsidiary of the Shen Group,

00:26:42was one of China's leading

00:26:43pharmaceutical research companies.

00:26:44Its research centers

00:26:45were spread all over the world.

00:26:48Shan Qi and Chua Pharmaceuticals

00:26:50were no match for it.

00:26:51Shen Jing Shan's voice

00:26:52gradually grew colder.

00:26:54What was Lirayan most proud of?

00:26:56His medical skills,

00:26:57his academic reputation,

00:26:59and his surgical achievements,

00:27:00and Xiao Zhan was

00:27:02proud of his reputation

00:27:03in the family business

00:27:04and the medical world.

00:27:05He looked me in the eye

00:27:06and said,

00:27:07quote,

00:27:07they think you're not

00:27:08worthy of them,

00:27:09so I'll show them

00:27:10how insignificant

00:27:10the thing they're most proud of is,

00:27:12is in the Shen family's eyes.

00:27:14Yispo,

00:27:15in front of the Shen family,

00:27:16they're just

00:27:16ancients,

00:27:17crushable with a single finger.

00:27:19My fingers trembled slightly.

00:27:22I considered revenge,

00:27:23but even if

00:27:24a 13-year relationship

00:27:25is completely over,

00:27:27some memories

00:27:27and feelings

00:27:28still linger,

00:27:30that's why there was still

00:27:31a little softness

00:27:32in my heart.

00:27:33But dad's words

00:27:34were like a key that

00:27:35that unlocked

00:27:36a locked door

00:27:37of my heart.

00:27:38Ah,

00:27:39why should I endure

00:27:40this injustice?

00:27:40Why should I watch them

00:27:41both live?

00:27:45What do you want to do?

00:27:46I raised my head

00:27:47and asked dad.

00:27:48It's very simple.

00:27:49Shan Jing Shan leaned back

00:27:50on the sofa.

00:27:51His eyes were

00:27:52as sharp as a hawk.

00:27:53First,

00:27:54ruined Xiao Chuan's

00:27:55academic reputation,

00:27:56then destroyed

00:27:57his family business,

00:27:58turned him from

00:27:59a shining star

00:28:00in the medical world

00:28:01into someone

00:28:02everyone looks down on.

00:28:03And as for Leon,

00:28:05he's so proud of himself,

00:28:07isn't he?

00:28:07He thinks his medical skills

00:28:08are superior,

00:28:09so I'll show him

00:28:10how much my son

00:28:11contributed

00:28:12to where he is today.

00:28:13Bye.

00:28:14If it weren't

00:28:15for the Shen family's support,

00:28:16he would be nothing.

00:28:17Lin Juan sitting nearby

00:28:19also spoke,

00:28:20quote,

00:28:20when he got the job

00:28:21at City Hospital,

00:28:21when he was made

00:28:23Associate Chief Physician,

00:28:24when he received

00:28:25so many national-level

00:28:26research projects,

00:28:27Amo was behind it all.

00:28:29You were the one

00:28:29who quietly asked us

00:28:30to help him.

00:28:31Now it's time

00:28:32to take back

00:28:33what we gave.

00:28:34I remained silent

00:28:35because it was all true.

00:28:37When Lou Ryan

00:28:38was being promoted

00:28:39to Associate Chief Physician,

00:28:40his competitors

00:28:41were constantly

00:28:42plotting against him.

00:28:43Then I secretly

00:28:44called dad

00:28:45and asked for his help.

00:28:47That's when all

00:28:48the obstacles

00:28:49were removed.

00:28:49His research projects

00:28:50had been rejected

00:28:51several times.

00:28:52Then,

00:28:53using the Shen family's

00:28:54resources,

00:28:54I secured her support

00:28:55from one of the best

00:28:56research teams

00:28:57in the country.

00:28:58I even had her

00:28:59application documents

00:29:00redrafted.

00:29:01Only then did she

00:29:02receive funding

00:29:02for the project.

00:29:04But I never told her

00:29:05any of this.

00:29:06I was afraid

00:29:06that if she found out

00:29:07the truth,

00:29:07she would think

00:29:08I was showing off

00:29:09my status.

00:29:10She would become

00:29:11even less interested in me

00:29:12and distance herself

00:29:13from me.

00:29:14But now,

00:29:15looking back,

00:29:16it seems like

00:29:16all my sacrifices

00:29:17and silent contributions

00:29:18were nothing in her eyes.

00:29:20As if it were

00:29:21all natural.

00:29:22As if they were worthless.

00:29:24After a long-silenced

00:29:26ad,

00:29:26I quietly said

00:29:27I want to

00:29:27handle this all myself.

00:29:29The lost,

00:29:29a dull expression

00:29:30in my eyes

00:29:31had vanished.

00:29:33In its place

00:29:34was a bright glow.

00:29:35I want to take charge

00:29:36of the Shen Group's

00:29:37medical division.

00:29:38A glint of surprise

00:29:39flashed in

00:29:40Shen Jishan's eyes.

00:29:41Then he burst out laughing.

00:29:43Okay,

00:29:43very good.

00:29:44This is what I've been

00:29:45waiting to hear

00:29:45for the past five years.

00:29:46All the Shen family's

00:29:47wealth is basically

00:29:48for you.

00:29:49If you want to

00:29:50handle this,

00:29:51your father

00:29:51will fully support you.

00:29:53Lin Juan's eyes

00:29:54also lit up with joy.

00:29:55Come on,

00:29:56whatever you want to do,

00:29:58mother is always with you.

00:29:59Finally,

00:29:59she could see her confident

00:30:00and shining son again.

00:30:03There's one more thing.

00:30:04I picked up the file

00:30:05on the table.

00:30:06My fingers stopped

00:30:07at the words written on it.

00:30:08Divorce agreement.

00:30:09The entire process

00:30:10of my divorce with Lion.

00:30:11Please let the lawyers

00:30:13handle it.

00:30:13I don't want to have

00:30:14any connection

00:30:15with him anymore.

00:30:16Shen Jim Shen nodded.

00:30:18Don't worry.

00:30:19We've already hired

00:30:20the best divorce lawyer

00:30:21team in the country.

00:30:22In the country.

00:30:22Liu Ryan won't get

00:30:23a single penny

00:30:24from the estate.

00:30:25Everything he's spent

00:30:26in the past five years

00:30:27was the Shen family's money.

00:30:29We won't ask him

00:30:30for that money back.

00:30:31That's a huge concession

00:30:32for him.

00:30:33That night,

00:30:33I stayed at the old house.

00:30:35Lying in my childhood room,

00:30:36I watched the moonlight

00:30:37stream in through the window.

00:30:38And after a long time,

00:30:40I slept peacefully.

00:30:41There was no lion.

00:30:43No passion.

00:30:44No restlessness.

00:30:45Just a peace

00:30:46I'd never felt before.

00:30:48Finally,

00:30:49I no longer had to chase

00:30:50after Liu Ryan.

00:30:51I could become Shen Mo again.

00:30:53The heir to the Shen family.

00:30:55The person who should shine

00:30:56in his own light.

00:30:58Meanwhile,

00:30:58in Edinburgh,

00:30:59England,

00:31:00Liu Ryan sat alone

00:31:01in an empty apartment

00:31:02all night.

00:31:03Just before dawn,

00:31:04she slowly

00:31:04got up from the sofa

00:31:06and stood near the table.

00:31:09Her eyes fell in the five gift boxes.

00:31:12Now she truly realized

00:31:14that Shen He was gone

00:31:15and perhaps this time forever.

00:31:17The realization fell on her chest

00:31:19like a heavy stone.

00:31:20It became difficult

00:31:21to even breathe.

00:31:22For 13 years,

00:31:23no matter how cold,

00:31:24distant,

00:31:25or harsh she had been with him,

00:31:27Shen He had always been there

00:31:28for her

00:31:29whenever she worked

00:31:30late into the night.

00:31:31No matter how late it got,

00:31:32there was always a light

00:31:33waiting for her in the house

00:31:35and a hot meal

00:31:36ready for her.

00:31:37When she returned home

00:31:38exhausted after a long surgery,

00:31:39she often fell asleep

00:31:40as soon as she arrived.

00:31:41Then Shen He would quietly

00:31:42take off her shoes,

00:31:44massage her stiff

00:31:45shoulders and neck.

00:31:46Even his breathing

00:31:47would slow down

00:31:48so as not to disturb her sleep.

00:31:50When her periods hurt,

00:31:51he would have

00:31:51molasses and ginger tea

00:31:53ready, ready.

00:31:54He would also keep

00:31:55a hot water bottle nearby

00:31:56and sit beside her

00:31:57all night

00:31:58caring for her.

00:31:59He would attend to her

00:32:00every need,

00:32:00big or small.

00:32:02He would treat her

00:32:02like a princess,

00:32:03says.

00:32:04But Liu Ryan

00:32:05always took it all

00:32:05for granted.

00:32:07She had become so consumed

00:32:08by his presence that

00:32:09she never considered

00:32:10the possibility

00:32:10that he might leave

00:32:11one day.

00:32:12She always believed

00:32:13that no matter

00:32:14how he treated her,

00:32:15Shen He

00:32:15would never leave her.

00:32:17He was like that

00:32:18safe haven behind her

00:32:20always there,

00:32:21always within her reach.

00:32:23But now that safe haven

00:32:24had vanished,

00:32:25Shen He was gone.

00:32:27There was no fight,

00:32:28no screaming,

00:32:30no accusation.

00:32:31He had simply

00:32:32disappeared from her world

00:32:33and that was the

00:32:34most terrifying thing.

00:32:36Liu Ryan felt a

00:32:37strange emptiness

00:32:38in her heart.

00:32:39With a terrible panic,

00:32:40she picked up the phone

00:32:41again and tried

00:32:43to call Shen Mo.

00:32:44But the same

00:32:45cold message appeared.

00:32:46The phone is off.

00:32:47The red exclamation mark

00:32:48on WeChat

00:32:49silently filled her eyes.

00:32:51She tried to find

00:32:52his friend's contacts.

00:32:53She thought about

00:32:54asking someone

00:32:55about Shen Mo.

00:32:56Then she realized.

00:32:57In the past five years,

00:32:59she had never

00:32:59been a part of

00:33:00Shen Mo's world.

00:33:01She didn't even have

00:33:02any of his friend's numbers.

00:33:04She knew very little

00:33:05about him.

00:33:06All she knew

00:33:07was that he was

00:33:07an architect.

00:33:08But what university

00:33:09did he go to?

00:33:10Who were his friends?

00:33:12What was his family like?

00:33:13She knew none of this

00:33:14because she never

00:33:15tried to find out

00:33:16and Shen Mo

00:33:18never forced it.

00:33:20He didn't even

00:33:21remember her birthday.

00:33:22Her gaze fell

00:33:23on a written

00:33:23gift box.

00:33:25She had already

00:33:26opened it.

00:33:27Now in her hand,

00:33:28she held the same

00:33:28cold metal cufflinks,

00:33:30their chills

00:33:30stinging her palm.

00:33:32She remembered

00:33:33how bright her eyes

00:33:34had been

00:33:34when Shen Mo

00:33:35had given her

00:33:35this gift

00:33:36on their

00:33:36first wedding anniversary.

00:33:38But what was she

00:33:39doing at that moment?

00:33:40She was chatting

00:33:41with Xiao Chan.

00:33:42Xiao Chan had told her

00:33:43that his research abroad

00:33:44had run into

00:33:45some difficulties.

00:33:46She was lost

00:33:46in that worry.

00:33:47She didn't even

00:33:48look at the gift

00:33:49box properly.

00:33:50Just coldly said,

00:33:52It's all a pretense.

00:33:53It doesn't matter.

00:33:54She didn't even

00:33:55remember the expression

00:33:56on Shen Mo's face

00:33:57at that time.

00:33:58Now thinking back,

00:33:59he must have been

00:34:00so disappointed,

00:34:01so broken,

00:34:02as if possessed

00:34:03by some invisible force,

00:34:05she picked up

00:34:05the second gift box

00:34:06and slowly opened it.

00:34:07Inside was a

00:34:08hand-woven red thread.

00:34:10Inside was a

00:34:11small jade protection

00:34:12amulet.

00:34:13Liu Ryan's eyes

00:34:14widened.

00:34:15In a blink of an eye,

00:34:16her eyes turned red.

00:34:17She remembered

00:34:18it was their

00:34:18second year of marriage.

00:34:20She had gone

00:34:21to a medical camp

00:34:22in a remote

00:34:22mountainous area.

00:34:23There was a

00:34:24sudden landslide.

00:34:25Her car had

00:34:26overturned down

00:34:27the hillside.

00:34:28Although she had

00:34:28only suffered

00:34:29minor injuries,

00:34:30when the news

00:34:31reached Shen He,

00:34:32he was almost mad.

00:34:34He drove all night

00:34:35and waited

00:34:35at the foot of the mountain

00:34:36for two days

00:34:37and two nights

00:34:38until she emerged.

00:34:39Zanak until she emerged.

00:34:41After that,

00:34:41he tied this

00:34:42same red thread

00:34:43around her wrist

00:34:44and said with a smile,

00:34:45I prayed for your safety

00:34:46at the temple.

00:34:47I prayed for you

00:34:47at the temple.

00:34:48But at the time,

00:34:49Liu Ryan had thought

00:34:49it uncomfortable

00:34:50to undergo surgery

00:34:51while wearing it.

00:34:51And frankly,

00:34:52he even found it

00:34:53a bit unsightly.

00:34:54Yeah.

00:34:55Two days later,

00:34:56he took it off

00:34:56and threw it in a drawer.

00:34:58He never wore it again.

00:35:00He even got angry

00:35:01at Shen Mo,

00:35:02calling her superstitious

00:35:03and accusing her

00:35:04of interfering

00:35:05with his work.

00:35:06He had thought

00:35:07the thread would have

00:35:08been thrown away

00:35:08long ago,

00:35:09but he never imagined

00:35:11that Shen Mo

00:35:12had kept it safe

00:35:12for so many years,

00:35:14had brought it with him

00:35:15so carefully

00:35:16all the way to England

00:35:17and placed it in this gift box.

00:35:19Liu Ryan held the red thread.

00:35:21Her fingers trembled violently.

00:35:23The thread was as good

00:35:24as new.

00:35:25There wasn't a single sign

00:35:26of wearing tear on it.

00:35:27This was enough

00:35:28to prove how carefully

00:35:29Shen Mo

00:35:30had made her comfortable.

00:35:32But she never,

00:35:33even bothered,

00:35:34to glance at it.

00:35:35Her heart felt

00:35:36as if an invisible hand

00:35:37had gripped her tightly.

00:35:39A wave of suffocation

00:35:40and pain spread

00:35:41through her body.

00:35:42Just then,

00:35:43the doorbell rang.

00:35:44The Uruoian

00:35:44suddenly regained consciousness.

00:35:45She wiped away tears

00:35:46from the corners of her eyes.

00:35:47Then she got up

00:35:48and opened the door.

00:35:49There stood Shou Chan.

00:35:51Breakfast in his hand.

00:35:52A gentle smile

00:35:53on his face as always.

00:35:54Rui Yan,

00:35:55I brought you breakfast.

00:35:57You didn't reply

00:35:58to my message last night.

00:35:59I was a little worried

00:36:00before whenever she saw

00:36:01Shou Chan smiling like that.

00:36:03Her heart would fill

00:36:04with warmth.

00:36:06But today,

00:36:07she felt unreasonably irritated.

00:36:09Come in,

00:36:09he said,

00:36:10stepping aside.

00:36:11His voice lacked

00:36:12the warmth

00:36:12it had always had before.

00:36:14It was cold.

00:36:15Shou Chan came in

00:36:16and immediately noticed

00:36:17the two open gift boxes

00:36:19on the table.

00:36:20Also the red thread

00:36:21in Liu Rui Yan's hand.

00:36:22She frowned slightly.

00:36:24What is this?

00:36:25Shen left it behind.

00:36:26Liu Rui Yan silently shook her head.

00:36:28Then without another word,

00:36:29put the red thread

00:36:30back in the gift box.

00:36:32Rui Yan,

00:36:32don't worry so much.

00:36:33Shou Chan placed the breakfast

00:36:34on the table

00:36:35and came over,

00:36:36extending his hand

00:36:37to embrace her.

00:36:38Shen is just a little upset.

00:36:39Everything will be fine

00:36:40in a couple of days.

00:36:41He's been chasing you

00:36:42for so many years.

00:36:43He won't give up

00:36:44just like that,

00:36:45but Liu Rui Yan

00:36:46unconsciously took a step back.

00:36:48Shan's hand froze,

00:36:49midair.

00:36:50A look of surprise

00:36:51appeared in her eyes.

00:36:52In all these years

00:36:53of knowing her,

00:36:54even though Liu Rui Yan

00:36:55was obsessed

00:36:56with cleanliness,

00:36:58he had never avoided

00:36:59her touch like this.

00:37:00Rui Yan,

00:37:00what's wrong?

00:37:01She asked in a confused tone.

00:37:03Nothing.

00:37:04Liu Rui Yan nodded

00:37:05and went to sit on the sofa.

00:37:06I'm just a little tired.

00:37:08The sight of Sha Oken

00:37:09suddenly brought back

00:37:10memories of that rainy night.

00:37:13That night,

00:37:13Shao Chuan had told her

00:37:14that he was afraid

00:37:15of thunder and lightning.

00:37:17That's why he wanted

00:37:18to stay with her.

00:37:19She had thought

00:37:19Shen Ma's would be asleep.

00:37:22But he was awake,

00:37:23lying quietly in bed,

00:37:25listening to her excuses

00:37:27to spend time

00:37:27with another man.

00:37:29How much despair

00:37:30must have filled his heart

00:37:31at that moment.

00:37:32Then she remembered

00:37:33the scene outside

00:37:33the research institute

00:37:34where she had bent down

00:37:36to take off

00:37:36Shao Chuan's

00:37:37soaked shoes and socks.

00:37:38Her voice was so gentle,

00:37:40it could melt

00:37:40anyone's heart.

00:37:42And at that moment,

00:37:43there stood she.

00:37:44In his hands,

00:37:45he held the roses

00:37:46he had brought for her.

00:37:47They were completely soaked.

00:37:49Like an outsider,

00:37:50he silently watched

00:37:51as the tenderness

00:37:52and love he had always desired

00:37:54was being received

00:37:54by someone else,

00:37:56Shao.

00:37:56He even told her

00:37:57in Spanish

00:37:58that Shen Mo

00:37:58was just a use

00:38:00whether he was

00:38:00worthy or not

00:38:01didn't matter.

00:38:03Only now did

00:38:04Lian understand

00:38:05how deeply he had hurt

00:38:06Shen Mo

00:38:07Rui Anshan

00:38:07sat down

00:38:08next to him.

00:38:13The organizers

00:38:14have sent me an invitation.

00:38:15I've told them

00:38:16I'll take you with me.

00:38:17We'll perform

00:38:18on stage together.

00:38:19This will be

00:38:20a great opportunity

00:38:21for your international

00:38:21medical career.

00:38:26Lian looked at him

00:38:27but her heart remained

00:38:27academic reputation,

00:38:29international recognition,

00:38:30respect in the medical world.

00:38:32These were the most

00:38:32important things to her.

00:38:33For all of these,

00:38:34she had ignored

00:38:35Shen Mo's feelings.

00:38:36She had sacrificed

00:38:37her marriage

00:38:38and accepted

00:38:39Shen Mo's sacrifice

00:38:40without any guilt.

00:38:41She wanted to pursue

00:38:42her so-called ideals

00:38:44but now

00:38:45she had no interest

00:38:46in any of these things.

00:38:47I won't go.

00:38:48She slowly shook her head.

00:38:51Was Shao-Chan stunned?

00:38:52This was an opportunity

00:38:53many people

00:38:54yearned for.

00:38:55I'm not interested.

00:38:57Liu Rian said flatly,

00:38:58I want to go back

00:38:59to China.

00:39:00I have to find Shen Mo.

00:39:02I have to apologize to him.

00:39:03I have to explain everything

00:39:04and bring him back.

00:39:06I can't lose him.

00:39:07Shao-Chan's face

00:39:08instantly changed.

00:39:09Back to China.

00:39:10Back to Shen Mo, Brian.

00:39:11Don't forget that

00:39:12you chose to stay in England

00:39:14and be with me.

00:39:15What's the point

00:39:16of returning to him now?

00:39:17You two have been married

00:39:18for five years.

00:39:19I have to go back

00:39:20and clear everything up.

00:39:22Liu Rian's voice

00:39:22was tinged with irritation.

00:39:24I have to clear everything up?

00:39:25Shaan's voice rose.

00:39:27What more could he say?

00:39:28He left without another word.

00:39:30It was clear

00:39:30he didn't want to continue

00:39:31this marriage.

00:39:32Going after him

00:39:33and pleading now

00:39:33is just belittling himself.

00:39:35When did you become so humble?

00:39:37Yu Yan looked at her.

00:39:38And suddenly,

00:39:39Shaan felt very strange.

00:39:41Because for all these years,

00:39:42he had always stood

00:39:43on a pedestal

00:39:44in front of Shen Mo.

00:39:45He was always the one

00:39:46who was pampered and valued.

00:39:48He had never learned

00:39:48to be humble.

00:39:50But Shen,

00:39:51after Mo left,

00:39:53Liu Rian understood

00:39:53for the first time

00:39:54what it was like

00:39:54to be a babe

00:39:55and how small

00:39:56it felt to be

00:39:56in front of someone.

00:39:58This is my personal matter,

00:39:59she said coldly.

00:40:00It's none of your business.

00:40:01Now go back.

00:40:03I want to be alone.

00:40:04Shaan looked at her cold face.

00:40:07Anger was boiling inside her.

00:40:09But finally,

00:40:10she controlled herself.

00:40:12He stood up,

00:40:13adjusted his suit,

00:40:14and said in a soft voice,

00:40:15Okay,

00:40:16I won't force you.

00:40:17But think carefully.

00:40:19Don't make a decision.

00:40:20You'll regret later.

00:40:22With that,

00:40:22he left

00:40:23as soon as the door closed.

00:40:25Liu Rian couldn't

00:40:26control herself anymore.

00:40:27She collapsed on the sofa,

00:40:28tears welling up in her eyes.

00:40:30With trembling hands,

00:40:31she picked up

00:40:32the gift box

00:40:32marked day three.

00:40:33She slowly opened it.

00:40:35Inside was a photo album.

00:40:37As she opened it,

00:40:38her hand froze.

00:40:39The entire album

00:40:40was filled with photos of her.

00:40:42Her concentrated face

00:40:43during surgery.

00:40:44The photo of her falling asleep

00:40:45on the sofa exhausted from her.

00:40:46Her triumphant smile

00:40:47on the award stage.

00:40:48The rice cake

00:40:49sticking to her lips

00:40:50while eating.

00:40:51Lying curled up in bed

00:40:52in period pain.

00:40:54Staring lostly out

00:40:55the window

00:40:55from their

00:40:56first meeting

00:40:57to their fifth

00:40:57year of marriage.

00:40:59Thirteen years of memories,

00:41:01almost every important moment

00:41:02of her life.

00:41:03Shenmue had silently

00:41:04captured them on camera,

00:41:05then carefully preserved them.

00:41:07In this album,

00:41:08beneath each photo

00:41:08was a small note.

00:41:10The date

00:41:11and her feelings

00:41:12that day.

00:41:14September 15, 2013,

00:41:15to Nesahara

00:41:15for the first time

00:41:16at the scene of a car accident.

00:41:17She was busy

00:41:17saving the lives

00:41:18of the injured.

00:41:19Her eyes

00:41:20shone like stars.

00:41:21Perhaps that was the moment

00:41:22my heart beat for her.

00:41:24March, 2015.

00:41:25Today she smiled at me

00:41:26for the first time.

00:41:28Though it was just

00:41:29a courtesy smile,

00:41:30I was still happy.

00:41:31All night.

00:41:31Duh-back.

00:41:32October 7, 2018.

00:41:34Today she accepted

00:41:35my proposal.

00:41:37I married the girl

00:41:38I love.

00:41:39I will take care of her

00:41:40for the rest of my life.

00:41:422019.

00:41:43Our first wedding anniversary.

00:41:44I bought her a cufflink.

00:41:46She didn't like it.

00:41:47No matter.

00:41:48I'll search further

00:41:49little by little.

00:41:50One day,

00:41:51I'll definitely find

00:41:51something she'll like.

00:41:532020.

00:41:54She went to a medical camp.

00:41:56There was a landslide.

00:41:57I was very scared.

00:41:58As long as she's safe,

00:42:00nothing else matters.

00:42:012021.

00:42:02I prepared a gift

00:42:03for her birthday.

00:42:04But she was working overtime

00:42:06and didn't return home.

00:42:07The cake got ruined.

00:42:08No problem.

00:42:09We'll celebrate

00:42:10again next year.

00:42:112022.

00:42:11Our fifth wedding anniversary.

00:42:13She went to England

00:42:14on a business trip.

00:42:15I missed her so much.

00:42:17I want to go to England

00:42:18and surprise her.

00:42:19And then,

00:42:20the last note of the album.

00:42:22Edinburgh.

00:42:232023.

00:42:23A rainy night.

00:42:25She doesn't love me.

00:42:26Even after 13 years,

00:42:27I haven't been able

00:42:28to win her heart.

00:42:29My heart is tired.

00:42:32Leanne kept turning each page.

00:42:34Tears kept falling.

00:42:35The ink blurred

00:42:36and for the first time

00:42:36she realized

00:42:37how deeply Shenmue

00:42:38had loved her

00:42:39for 13 years.

00:42:41She had never realized

00:42:42that Shenmue

00:42:43had loved her so deeply

00:42:44for 13 years.

00:42:46In places like this,

00:42:48the ones she never got to see.

00:42:49The marriage

00:42:50she always considered hollow.

00:42:52The relationship

00:42:52she considered only feeling.

00:42:54It was all just

00:42:54her own misunderstanding.

00:42:56Shenmue never expressed

00:42:57all his love in words.

00:42:58He hid it in small gestures

00:43:00for 13 years.

00:43:02But Lurian never tried

00:43:03to lean in

00:43:04and see those feelings.

00:43:05Now she finally understood.

00:43:07She hadn't just lost

00:43:09the man

00:43:09who pursued her

00:43:10for 13 years.

00:43:12She had lost

00:43:13the person in whose eyes

00:43:14she alone lived

00:43:15who considered her.

00:43:16his entire world

00:43:17and who was perhaps

00:43:19the last person

00:43:20in the world

00:43:20to love her unconditionally.

00:43:22The news of Shen

00:43:23taking charge

00:43:23of the Shen Group's

00:43:24medical and healthcare division

00:43:25sent shockwaves

00:43:26throughout Beijing's

00:43:26medical community.

00:43:28It even became

00:43:29a national topic

00:43:30of discussion.

00:43:31Everyone knew

00:43:32that the Shen Group's

00:43:33sole heir

00:43:33had been missing

00:43:34for five years.

00:43:36Living a life

00:43:36like an ordinary person.

00:43:38But now,

00:43:39he had suddenly returned

00:43:40and as soon as he arrived,

00:43:41he had taken charge

00:43:42of one of the group's

00:43:43most important departments.

00:43:45It was clear

00:43:46he knew he was about

00:43:47to do something big.

00:43:47On his very first day

00:43:49at the company,

00:43:49Shenmue called a meeting

00:43:50of all the senior executives.

00:43:51He sat at the top

00:43:52of the conference room

00:43:53in a specially tailored

00:43:54expensive suit.

00:43:56His eyes were sharp.

00:43:57His thoughts clear.

00:43:59He listened attentively

00:44:00to department reports

00:44:01and the questions he asked

00:44:02were so precise

00:44:03that no one believed

00:44:04this was the same man

00:44:06who had been

00:44:06away from the family business

00:44:07for five years.

00:44:09Initially,

00:44:09many executives thought

00:44:10the young boss

00:44:11had come just to fulfill

00:44:12a formality.

00:44:13But by the end of the meeting,

00:44:14everyone's opinion had changed.

00:44:16They realized

00:44:16that Chairman Shen's son

00:44:18had never been

00:44:18a spoiled rich boy.

00:44:20He had simply

00:44:21fallen in love.

00:44:22And now that he had awakened,

00:44:24his true potential

00:44:24was beginning to emerge.

00:44:26After the meeting,

00:44:27Shenmue called

00:44:28the chief risk officer

00:44:29and the director

00:44:30of the legal department

00:44:31into his office.

00:44:32I need complete information

00:44:33about Shen

00:44:34and the Chan pharmaceutical group

00:44:35behind him.

00:44:38He sat behind his desk

00:44:39lightly tapping the table

00:44:40with his fingers.

00:44:42His voice was calm,

00:44:43but there was a pressure in it

00:44:44that couldn't be ignored.

00:44:46He could have gone,

00:44:47especially all their dark deeds,

00:44:48academic fraud,

00:44:49business irregularities,

00:44:50and financial problems.

00:44:52And financial problems.

00:44:53I need everything.

00:44:55Three days will be enough,

00:44:56sir.

00:44:56The chief risk officer

00:44:57asked immediately then.

00:44:59Without waiting,

00:44:59said,

00:45:00Actually,

00:45:00Chairman Shen has already

00:45:01given the order.

00:45:02We've already started

00:45:03gathering information.

00:45:05Almost everything is ready.

00:45:06I'll bring it right away.

00:45:07Shenmue simply nodded.

00:45:09His face was emotionless.

00:45:10He was no saint.

00:45:12He wasn't about to let go

00:45:13of the humiliation and pain

00:45:15Shen and Leon

00:45:16had inflicted on him.

00:45:17He wanted to show them

00:45:18the true meaning of power

00:45:20and the heavy price

00:45:21of challenging some people

00:45:23e some people.

00:45:24Soon,

00:45:25a thick stack of documents

00:45:26was placed on his desk.

00:45:27Shenmue began flipping

00:45:28through each page.

00:45:29Slowly,

00:45:30a cold smile formed

00:45:31on his lips.

00:45:32The air.

00:45:32Two shot

00:45:33to John Pharmaceuticals

00:45:34had secured.

00:45:35His prestigious job

00:45:36as a researcher

00:45:36at the Edelope Medical Research Institute,

00:45:38largely due to his family's influence.

00:45:41On the outside,

00:45:42he presented himself

00:45:43as a medical genius.

00:45:44But the truth was something else.

00:45:46His papers published

00:45:47in prestigious international journals

00:45:48were garbled.

00:45:49Many research papers

00:45:50contained serious flaws.

00:45:51The results of many experiments

00:45:53were unrepeatable.

00:45:54Some studies even plagiarized

00:45:56other people's work.

00:45:57The situation in the business sector

00:45:59was even worse.

00:46:00Clinical trial data

00:46:01for several of Chua Pharmaceuticals'

00:46:03key drugs

00:46:03had been manipulated.

00:46:04Marketing approvals

00:46:05had been obtained

00:46:06by bribing regulatory officials.

00:46:08The company engaged in

00:46:09tax evasion

00:46:11falsified financial records,

00:46:12inflated revenue figures,

00:46:14and profited

00:46:14from the stock market guard.

00:46:17Some of the drugs

00:46:18had even caused

00:46:18serious side effects

00:46:19in patients.

00:46:20But these cases

00:46:21were hushed up with bribes.

00:46:23Each of these documents

00:46:24was evidence

00:46:25that could completely destroy

00:46:27Shan's reputation

00:46:28and land him in prison.

00:46:30Shen Mo closed the file

00:46:31with a wry smile.

00:46:35Looking at the legal director,

00:46:36he said,

00:46:37quote, quote,

00:46:37the first step

00:46:38is to send the concrete evidence

00:46:39of the fraud

00:46:40in his research papers

00:46:41to the editorial offices

00:46:42of major medical journals

00:46:43as well as to the

00:46:44Ethics Committee

00:46:45of the Edinburgh Medical Institute

00:46:46and simultaneously

00:46:46reported to the

00:46:47International Medical Forum

00:46:48and the International Medical Forum

00:46:50expose him anonymously

00:46:51on academic platforms.

00:46:52His voice was ice cold.

00:46:54I want this so-called

00:46:55medical genius's reputation

00:46:56to be shattered overnight

00:46:58and the whole world

00:46:59to know him

00:47:00as an academic fraud.

00:47:01The legal director

00:47:02immediately stood up.

00:47:03Yes, Mr. Shen,

00:47:04I'll make arrangements right now.

00:47:06Step two.

00:47:07She opened the next document,

00:47:09hand over all evidence

00:47:10of tax evasion

00:47:11and falsified clinical data

00:47:12to the relevant departments

00:47:13in China and Britain.

00:47:14Also,

00:47:15activate our European partners.

00:47:17They should take

00:47:20cut off the supply chain

00:47:21and end

00:47:23all business cooperation.

00:47:24There was no mercy

00:47:25left in his eyes

00:47:26because this time,

00:47:27Shen wasn't just

00:47:28a wounded lover.

00:47:29He was the heir

00:47:30to the Shen family.

00:47:31Shen's voice

00:47:32was still calm,

00:47:33but his every word

00:47:34held the power of thunder.

00:47:36I want two of pharmaceuticals

00:47:37to go completely bankrupt

00:47:38within a month

00:47:39and have its assets

00:47:40auctioned off.

00:47:41Get him.

00:47:41Auctioned off.

00:47:42Step three.

00:47:44Find out which officials

00:47:45chew of pharmaceuticals bribed.

00:47:47What illegal means

00:47:49did they use

00:47:49to enter the European market?

00:47:51M.

00:47:51The evidence should be handed over

00:47:53to the relevant departments.

00:47:54Shen Mo's eyes

00:47:55turned ice cold.

00:47:57I wish Shao Han and Dean

00:47:58Tire Corp's family

00:47:59standing behind him

00:48:00never had the chance

00:48:01to stand together again.

00:48:02After making all the arrangements,

00:48:04the legal director

00:48:04and risk control officer

00:48:06quickly left.

00:48:07Only Shen Mo was left alone

00:48:09in the office.

00:48:09He got up and stood in front

00:48:11of the huge floor-to-ceiling

00:48:12glass window.

00:48:13He could see

00:48:14the busy city streets below.

00:48:16His deep gaze

00:48:17was lost somewhere

00:48:17in the distance,

00:48:18lost in the endless

00:48:19lines of cars.

00:48:20Just then,

00:48:21his phone rang.

00:48:22A name flashed on the screen,

00:48:23Sunyan Amo.

00:48:24He said,

00:48:25Work was finished.

00:48:26Saching and soft voice

00:48:27came from the other end

00:48:28of the phone.

00:48:28I'm downstairs at your company.

00:48:30I've brought you lunch,

00:48:31Shee.

00:48:33If you're busy,

00:48:33I'll come up.

00:48:34A smile involuntarily

00:48:35appeared on Shen Mo's lips.

00:48:37The coldness in his eyes

00:48:38vanished instantly.

00:48:40No,

00:48:40I'll come down myself.

00:48:42After hanging up,

00:48:43he headed straight

00:48:43for the elevator.

00:48:45Su Ching-un was standing

00:48:46in the company lobby.

00:48:47She was wearing

00:48:47a neat white suit,

00:48:48a lunchbox.

00:48:49In her hand,

00:48:50her long hair

00:48:51was tied up.

00:48:52A gentle and intelligent

00:48:54aura emanated

00:48:55from her entire being.

00:48:56As soon as she saw

00:48:57Shen Mo,

00:48:58she smiled and waved.

00:48:59Shen Mo quickly

00:49:00rushed over

00:49:01and took the lunchbox

00:49:02from her hand.

00:49:03How did you suddenly

00:49:04end up here?

00:49:05Saching and smiled.

00:49:06Auntie told me,

00:49:07It was your first day

00:49:08at the company.

00:49:09I knew you'd be so busy

00:49:10working that you'd

00:49:11forget to eat.

00:49:13Coincidentally,

00:49:14I had work nearby,

00:49:15so I brought you

00:49:16home-cooked food.

00:49:17All your childhood

00:49:18favorites.

00:49:19They both took

00:49:20the elevator up.

00:49:21Reaching the CO's office,

00:49:22Sun Yan opened

00:49:23the boxes one by one.

00:49:24Four dishes

00:49:25and the soup.

00:49:26Everything was

00:49:26Shen Mo's favorite.

00:49:28The aroma filled the room.

00:49:30Taste it,

00:49:30let's see if my cooking

00:49:31went wrong.

00:49:32Shen Mo picked up

00:49:33a chopstick

00:49:33and put a bite

00:49:34in his mouth.

00:49:35The familiar taste

00:49:36melted in his mouth,

00:49:37warming his heart.

00:49:39It's so delicious,

00:49:40just like when he was a child.

00:49:42Saching and his eyes

00:49:42lit up with a smile.

00:49:44If it's good,

00:49:45eat more.

00:49:46You've gotten quite thin

00:49:47these past few days.

00:49:48If you eat properly,

00:49:49if you don't eat,

00:49:50auntie will be worried again.

00:49:51He paused for a moment

00:49:52and asked softly,

00:49:53How's everything going

00:49:53at the company?

00:49:54If you need any help,

00:49:55let me know.

00:49:57Dad said that

00:49:58Super War will always

00:49:59stand by you.

00:50:00Super was one of

00:50:01Beijing's oldest

00:50:01and most prestigious

00:50:02financial families

00:50:03and a close friend

00:50:04of the Shen family

00:50:05for years.

00:50:06Their main business

00:50:07was investment.

00:50:08Their financial strength

00:50:09was immense.

00:50:09As for Sun,

00:50:10he was a top investment

00:50:12expert just returned

00:50:13from Wall Street.

00:50:14No one doubted

00:50:15his ability.

00:50:17Shen Mo looked at him.

00:50:18His heart swelled

00:50:19with gratitude.

00:50:20Thank you,

00:50:21Kinyan.

00:50:21Everything is going

00:50:22well right now.

00:50:23If needed,

00:50:24I won't hesitate

00:50:25to help you at all.

00:50:26Why so much formality?

00:50:28Suchingen smiled

00:50:29and placed a bowl of soup

00:50:30in front of him.

00:50:31Finish your meal first.

00:50:32It'll get cold.

00:50:34Watching Shimo

00:50:34take another bite,

00:50:35Suchigan felt

00:50:36both satisfaction

00:50:37and pain.

00:50:38He could finally see

00:50:39the old,

00:50:40confident

00:50:41Shen Mo back,

00:50:42but he also knew

00:50:44that the wound

00:50:44in his heart

00:50:45hadn't completely healed.

00:50:47Some wounds take time.

00:50:48He couldn't heal his wounds.

00:50:49He could have,

00:50:50but he could have

00:50:51stood by him.

00:50:52He could have helped

00:50:53him gradually fill them.

00:50:54At that very moment,

00:50:56a huge storm

00:50:56had erupted

00:50:57in Edinburgh, England.

00:50:58First,

00:50:59the academic fraud scandal

00:51:00broke, broke.

00:51:01The Shen family's team

00:51:02made public

00:51:03all the solid evidence

00:51:04against Shou Chan

00:51:04on fake data,

00:51:06falsified research results,

00:51:07falsified research results,

00:51:08and many other

00:51:09serious irregularities.

00:51:11Internationally renowned

00:51:11medical journals

00:51:12immediately launched

00:51:13an investigation.

00:51:14As soon as the evidence

00:51:15was confirmed,

00:51:15all research papers

00:51:16were withdrawn

00:51:16one after another.

00:51:18Shou Chan was

00:51:18permanently blacklisted.

00:51:20It was decided

00:51:21not to accept

00:51:21any of his research papers

00:51:22in the future.

00:51:24Immediately,

00:51:25the Ethics Committee

00:51:25of the Edinburgh

00:51:26Medical Research Institute

00:51:27also issued a notice.

00:51:28All his research activities

00:51:29were suspended and

00:51:30a special investigation

00:51:32committee was formed.

00:51:33Within just one night,

00:51:34the man,

00:51:34once hailed as a medical genius,

00:51:36became the biggest fraud

00:51:38in the academic world.

00:51:39Medical institutions

00:51:40worldwide distanced

00:51:41themselves from him.

00:51:42Old collaborative projects

00:51:43were cancelled.

00:51:44Criticism began everywhere.

00:51:46Shou Chan was

00:51:47completely panicked.

00:51:48He constantly called

00:51:49professors and heads

00:51:49of institutes.

00:51:50He kept calling.

00:51:51But no one answered

00:51:52his calls.

00:51:53Some even blocked him.

00:51:55His reputation,

00:51:56built over years

00:51:57of hard work,

00:51:58was destroyed overnight,

00:51:59I'd.

00:51:59But this was just

00:52:00the beginning.

00:52:01He hadn't even recovered

00:52:02from the shock

00:52:03of the academic scandal.

00:52:04When another blow struck,

00:52:05the UK tax department

00:52:06and drug regulatory agencies

00:52:08launched a simultaneous

00:52:08crackdown.

00:52:09The British branch

00:52:10of Chua Pharmaceuticals

00:52:11was suddenly raided.

00:52:12All the company's

00:52:13financial records

00:52:14were confiscated.

00:52:15Drug samples were taken.

00:52:17All clinical trial data

00:52:18was seized.

00:52:19Then,

00:52:20one after another,

00:52:21new scandals surfaced.

00:52:22Falsified data,

00:52:23tax evasion,

00:52:24commercial bribery,

00:52:25financial fraud.

00:52:26Everything became public.

00:52:27That very day,

00:52:28Chua Pharmaceuticals

00:52:29shares plummeted.

00:52:30The share price plummeted

00:52:32by nearly 70%.

00:52:33The market was shaken,

00:52:34and the company's future

00:52:36appeared bleak.

00:52:37Countless investors

00:52:38panicked

00:52:39and began selling

00:52:40their shares.

00:52:41Partner companies

00:52:41announced the end

00:52:42of collaborations

00:52:43one after another.

00:52:45Banks also began

00:52:46demanding repayments

00:52:47and early repayments.

00:52:49In just one night,

00:52:50Chan Pharmaceuticals'

00:52:52cash flow

00:52:52completely collapsed.

00:52:53Even its headquarters

00:52:54in China

00:52:54was left unscathed.

00:52:55The Drug Regulatory Authority,

00:52:57the Tax Department,

00:52:58and the Securities

00:52:58and Exchange Commission

00:52:59launched simultaneous

00:53:00investigations.

00:53:01The company's factories

00:53:02were sealed.

00:53:03Medicines were removed

00:53:04from the market.

00:53:04Bank accounts were frozen.

00:53:06Chua's father also

00:53:07suffered a devastating blow.

00:53:09In just one night,

00:53:09his hair turned gray,

00:53:10and he had to be

00:53:11hospitalized urgently.

00:53:14Within a week,

00:53:15the once-illustrious

00:53:16Chan Pharmaceuticals

00:53:17was on the verge

00:53:18of bankruptcy.

00:53:19The Shawan family,

00:53:21once a prominent

00:53:21social figure,

00:53:22was now a shattered family

00:53:24mired in debt.

00:53:25Shawan was utterly devastated.

00:53:27He locked himself

00:53:28in his apartment

00:53:28breaking everything,

00:53:30in his room,

00:53:30like a mad animal.

00:53:32He couldn't understand

00:53:33who he had offended

00:53:34and why such a terrible disaster

00:53:36had suddenly befallen him.

00:53:39Then his lawyer called.

00:53:40His voice was filled

00:53:41with despair.

00:53:42Mr. Shah,

00:53:43we found out

00:53:44that the one

00:53:45taking action against us

00:53:46is the Shen Group of China.

00:53:48The Shen Group orchestrated

00:53:50all the revelations.

00:53:51We can't compete with them.

00:53:53The Shen Group's strength

00:53:54is one hundred times

00:53:55greater than ours.

00:53:56We have no chance

00:53:57of retaliating.

00:53:59Shen was stunned.

00:54:00His eyes widened

00:54:01in disbelief.

00:54:02Which Shen Group?

00:54:03When did I offend them?

00:54:05The lawyer replied

00:54:05in a trembling voice.

00:54:06The Shen family in Beijing

00:54:08started out in real estate

00:54:09and finance,

00:54:10one of the country's

00:54:10largest business

00:54:12conglomerate's aunts.

00:54:13Their heir,

00:54:14Shenmo,

00:54:15Shen's pupils,

00:54:16shrank.

00:54:17His blood seemed to freeze

00:54:19in an instant.

00:54:20He suddenly remembered

00:54:21that rainy night

00:54:22in Edinburgh.

00:54:23The same man

00:54:24who stood holding

00:54:25a bouquet of drenched roses.

00:54:27Looking humble

00:54:28and ordinary.

00:54:29The one he had mocked

00:54:30in Spanish,

00:54:30the one he had said

00:54:32was unworthy

00:54:32of Liu Aliu Ryan.

00:54:34That man was actually

00:54:35the heir

00:54:36to the Shen Group.

00:54:37Shan's strength

00:54:38was drained

00:54:38from his legs.

00:54:39He fell to the ground

00:54:40with a thud.

00:54:41His face went

00:54:42as white as a rag.

00:54:43He finally understood

00:54:44who he had challenged.

00:54:46The thing he cared

00:54:47about most,

00:54:48she was proud.

00:54:49Her talent,

00:54:49her family,

00:54:50her business,

00:54:51her reputation,

00:54:52all of them

00:54:53were nothing

00:54:54in the eyes

00:54:54of the Shen family.

00:54:55They were mere ants.

00:54:57It could be crushed

00:54:57at any moment.

00:54:59Just then,

00:54:59the door opened.

00:55:00Lian stood at the door.

00:55:02Her face paled

00:55:03at the sight

00:55:03of the broken thing

00:55:04scattered around the room

00:55:05and the scoundrel

00:55:06Xiao Chua.

00:55:06She now knew everything.

00:55:08Xiao Chua's

00:55:09academic fraud,

00:55:10the collapse

00:55:11of Xiao Pharmaceuticals,

00:55:12the destruction

00:55:13of the Xiao family,

00:55:14and behind it all,

00:55:15Shen Motha.

00:55:16She had finally

00:55:17discovered the

00:55:17true identity

00:55:18of the man

00:55:19she'd spent

00:55:20five years

00:55:20married to.

00:55:22The man she'd

00:55:23always thought

00:55:23was a mere architect,

00:55:24a man she didn't

00:55:25even consider

00:55:26worthy of her.

00:55:28But the truth was,

00:55:29he was the sole heir

00:55:31to one of the country's

00:55:31most powerful business

00:55:32families.

00:55:33She remembered

00:55:34how she and Xiao Kuan

00:55:36had mocked him

00:55:36in Spanish-ish,

00:55:38how she'd always been

00:55:39cold and contemptuous

00:55:40towards her,

00:55:41how she'd mistaken

00:55:42Shaman most selfless love

00:55:43for her

00:55:44and lavished

00:55:45all her affection

00:55:46on Xiao Kuan.

00:55:47She felt as if

00:55:48someone had repeatedly

00:55:49hit her in the face.

00:55:50You slapped me.

00:55:51Her face was

00:55:52her heart was filled

00:55:53with shame and remorse.

00:55:55Seeing him,

00:55:56Xiao Chuan

00:55:56ran towards her

00:55:57like a drowning man

00:55:58clutching,

00:55:59sort of a straw.

00:56:00He staggered to her

00:56:02and held her hand

00:56:03tightly.

00:56:04Help me.

00:56:05Go and beg

00:56:06Shen Mo,

00:56:07tell him.

00:56:07Tell him he go.

00:56:10You're his wife.

00:56:11He'll definitely

00:56:12listen to you.

00:56:13Please talk to him

00:56:14for me.

00:56:15The Anne

00:56:16looked at him

00:56:17at the man

00:56:18she once

00:56:19idolized.

00:56:19But now,

00:56:21Xiao Huan standing

00:56:21before her

00:56:22looked utterly pitiful

00:56:23and only one feeling

00:56:23arose in her heart.

00:56:26Deep irony.

00:56:27This was the white

00:56:28moonlight she had all

00:56:29always yearned

00:56:29for the man

00:56:30she had hurt.

00:56:31Shen Mo to be with.

00:56:34But at the slightest

00:56:35trouble,

00:56:35he became so cowardly

00:56:37and helpless.

00:56:38Liu Rian jerked

00:56:39her hand away,

00:56:40her eyes.

00:56:40Cold.

00:56:41She stared straight

00:56:43at Xiao Chuan

00:56:43and said,

00:56:44Xiao Chuan,

00:56:45don't you understand yet?

00:56:46Why did Shen Mo

00:56:47take action against you?

00:56:48You did his own.

00:56:49You ruined 13 years

00:56:50of love.

00:56:50You ruined his

00:56:51five-year marriage.

00:56:52Do you really think

00:56:53he'll listen to me?

00:56:54So what should we do now?

00:56:56What should we do?

00:56:57Shen was completely

00:56:58devastated.

00:56:58He sat on the ground

00:56:59covering his face

00:57:01with his hands

00:57:01and sobbed

00:57:02like a child.

00:57:03I'm ruined.

00:57:04Have mercy on me.

00:57:06Li Rian looked at him.

00:57:07And in that instant,

00:57:08the last remaining hope

00:57:09in her heart vanished.

00:57:10She turned

00:57:11and left the apartment

00:57:12without a backward glance.

00:57:13She was going back

00:57:14to China.

00:57:15After finishing

00:57:16all the things

00:57:16she'd planned to do

00:57:17in England,

00:57:17to find Shen Mo

00:57:18to apologize to him,

00:57:19to atone for her sins,

00:57:20to atone for her sins

00:57:21and to tell him

00:57:22she now understood

00:57:23her mistake

00:57:23and ask him

00:57:24for another chance.

00:57:25And after finishing

00:57:25all the things in England,

00:57:26Liu Rian bought a ticket

00:57:27for the first flight

00:57:27back to China.

00:57:28Before leaving,

00:57:28she opened the remaining

00:57:29two gift boxes.

00:57:31A box marked day four.

00:57:33Inside was a men's ring.

00:57:35The same wedding ring

00:57:36Shen Mo had made for her

00:57:37when they married,

00:57:39married.

00:57:39In their five years of marriage,

00:57:41Shan had never taken it

00:57:42off her hand.

00:57:43Even though Liu Rian

00:57:44never wore his wedding ring,

00:57:46even though he rarely

00:57:48told people he was married,

00:57:49Shen Mo

00:57:50always wore it like

00:57:51it was a priceless treasure.

00:57:53And now he had left it there.

00:57:54Ahem.

00:57:55Ah-li-she, miss-li-de.

00:57:57Liu Rian picked it up

00:57:58with trembling hands.

00:57:59Inscribed on the inside was

00:58:01Love you for a lifetime

00:58:02and the initials

00:58:03of their names.

00:58:04Tears welled up again.

00:58:06One by one,

00:58:07they fell on the ring.

00:58:08Then he opened

00:58:08the last box.

00:58:09Day five.

00:58:10This was the final surprise

00:58:11Shen Mo had promised.

00:58:13With trembling hands,

00:58:14he opened the box.

00:58:15There were no gifts inside.

00:58:17Only two documents.

00:58:18The first

00:58:19was a divorce agreement.

00:58:20It bore Shen Mo's

00:58:21clear and strong signature.

00:58:22The document stated

00:58:23that all property

00:58:24after marriage

00:58:25would be transferred

00:58:25to Li Ruian's name

00:58:26and that Shen Mo

00:58:27was relinquishing all rights

00:58:28to the division

00:58:29of the property.

00:58:29Why,

00:58:30until the very last moment,

00:58:31he was still thinking about her.

00:58:33The second document

00:58:34was a complete description

00:58:35of the Shen Group

00:58:36and Shen Mo's identity.

00:58:37The sole heir

00:58:38to the Shen family

00:58:38was Yuan,

00:58:39Joe Pharmaceuticals,

00:58:41the president of Shen Group,

00:58:42the chairman of the company,

00:58:44the future owner

00:58:44of one of the country's

00:58:45largest business conglomerates.

00:58:46Every word

00:58:47felt like a

00:58:48hammer on lion's heart,

00:58:50shattering her

00:58:50years-long pride.

00:58:52Now she realized

00:58:53what she had lost.

00:58:54She thought

00:58:55she had married

00:58:56an ordinary man,

00:58:57but he possessed

00:58:58wealth and status

00:58:59she could never have achieved

00:59:01in a lifetime.

00:59:02And more importantly,

00:59:04she now realized

00:59:05that the man behind her job

00:59:06at the city hospital,

00:59:07her rise to associate

00:59:08chief physician,

00:59:09her research projects,

00:59:10every major success

00:59:11in her career.

00:59:16Moha, the man she'd always

00:59:17considered ordinary

00:59:18and insignificant.

00:59:19In reality,

00:59:19all his achievements

00:59:20were insignificant to her.

00:59:21She always thought

00:59:22Shen Mo was trying

00:59:24to reach her level,

00:59:25but the truth

00:59:26was the opposite.

00:59:26From start to finish,

00:59:28she herself

00:59:28was trying to climb up.

00:59:30Liu Rian sat down

00:59:31on the ground,

00:59:32clutching the divorce papers

00:59:33to her chest

00:59:33and burst into tears

00:59:34and burst into tears.

00:59:35Thirteen years of pursuit,

00:59:36five years of marriage,

00:59:37she had pushed away

00:59:38the person she loved

00:59:39most with her own.

00:59:41Most with her own hands.

00:59:42Now she understood

00:59:43what regret felt like.

00:59:45It was early morning

00:59:46when the plane landed

00:59:46at Beijing's capital airport.

00:59:48Lian stepped out,

00:59:49dragging her suitcase.

00:59:51The city was the same,

00:59:52but everything felt unfamiliar.

00:59:54She went straight to the house

00:59:55where she and Shen Mo

00:59:56had spent five years together.

00:59:58She opened the door.

00:59:59The house was empty.

01:00:00All of Shen Wo's clothes,

01:00:01clothes, shoes,

01:00:03design drawings,

01:00:04were gone.

01:00:05As if he had never lived there.

01:00:07Only the house

01:00:08was still spotlessly clean.

01:00:09Everything was in its place.

01:00:11As if the hard work

01:00:12of five years

01:00:13was still embedded in the walls.

01:00:14She went into the bedroom.

01:00:16She opened the bedside drawer.

01:00:17Inside lay her own wedding ring.

01:00:19The same ring

01:00:20she had never worn

01:00:21since their wedding

01:00:22and had kept next to it.

01:00:24Shen Mo's ring

01:00:25lay beside the two rings.

01:00:27As if mocking

01:00:28her entire marriage,

01:00:30Yurian picked up the ring

01:00:31with trembling hands

01:00:32and put it on her finger.

01:00:34The ring fit perfectly,

01:00:36but her heart

01:00:36felt more empty than ever.

01:00:38She pulled out her phone

01:00:39and called Shen Mo.

01:00:41Because she changed the number,

01:00:42the call went through this time.

01:00:43The call stayed on hold

01:00:44for a long time.

01:00:45Then someone picked up.

01:00:46Shen Mo's familiar voice

01:00:47came from the other end.

01:00:48But there was no warmth

01:00:49in it anymore.

01:00:50Only coldness,

01:00:51distance,

01:00:52and a slight impatience.

01:00:54Who?

01:00:54Hearing the voice,

01:00:55Yurian burst into tears.

01:00:56Her voice trembled.

01:00:58It's me, Amo.

01:00:59There was silence

01:01:00for a few seconds.

01:01:01Then came Shen Mo's flat voice.

01:01:03What's the matter?

01:01:04Oh,

01:01:05I'm back in China.

01:01:06I'm in our home.

01:01:08Please come back.

01:01:10We'll talk together.

01:01:11Shen Mo's voice

01:01:12was calm as water.

01:01:13There's nothing left

01:01:14to talk about.

01:01:15You must have received

01:01:16the divorce papers.

01:01:17If there's no problem,

01:01:18sign them.

01:01:19The lawyer will take care

01:01:20of the rest.

01:01:21No,

01:01:21Lu Yanggan cried.

01:01:23Amo,

01:01:23I don't want a divorce.

01:01:24I've realized my mistake.

01:01:26I really have.

01:01:27Please forgive me.

01:01:28We can start over.

01:01:30Please.

01:01:31Shen Mo laughed softly.

01:01:32There was only sarcasm

01:01:33in that smile.

01:01:34Dr. Liu,

01:01:35do you really think

01:01:35this is possible?

01:01:36Liu Ryan began

01:01:37to cry uncontrollably.

01:01:38I know I made

01:01:39a lot of mistakes.

01:01:40I shouldn't have

01:01:41treated you so coldly.

01:01:43I shouldn't have

01:01:44gotten involved with Sean.

01:01:46I shouldn't have

01:01:46hurt you.

01:01:48Amo,

01:01:49just give me

01:01:49one more chance.

01:01:50I promise I'll change

01:01:51this time.

01:01:52I'll treat you

01:01:53well.

01:01:54We'll live a good life.

01:01:56There's no need for that.

01:01:57Shen Mo interrupted

01:01:58her in a cold voice.

01:01:59In 13 years,

01:02:01I've given you

01:02:01countless chances.

01:02:02You were the one

01:02:03who rejected them.

01:02:03It's too late now.

01:02:05No,

01:02:05it's not too late yet.

01:02:07Lu Ryan spoke quickly.

01:02:08A last trace of hope

01:02:09in her voice.

01:02:10I've cut off

01:02:11all ties with Sean.

01:02:12The person I love

01:02:14is you.

01:02:14It's always been you.

01:02:16I was just too foolish

01:02:17before.

01:02:18I didn't understand

01:02:19my own heart

01:02:20clearly.

01:02:21Shen Mo called her

01:02:22by her full name.

01:02:23The irritation

01:02:23in his voice

01:02:24was clear.

01:02:25Stop making excuses.

01:02:27You don't love me.

01:02:29You love the status

01:02:30I can give you.

01:02:31The identity

01:02:32of the Shen family's

01:02:32heir,

01:02:33the resources,

01:02:33and the status.

01:02:35If I were still

01:02:36that ordinary architect,

01:02:37would you come back

01:02:38to me?

01:02:38Lu Ryan's words

01:02:39choked in her throat.

01:02:40She couldn't utter

01:02:41a single word.

01:02:42I've already had

01:02:43my lawyer send you

01:02:44the divorce papers.

01:02:45Sign them

01:02:46and we'll part ways

01:02:47peacefully.

01:02:48Shen Mo's tone

01:02:49left no.

01:02:51Room frame for the

01:02:52discussion.

01:02:52Don't call me again.

01:02:53I don't.

01:02:56With that,

01:02:57she immediately hung up.

01:02:58When Liu Ruyan

01:02:59called again,

01:03:00the line was already

01:03:01busy.

01:03:02Liu Ruyan fell to the

01:03:03ground,

01:03:03mobile in hand,

01:03:04and wept uncontrollably.

01:03:06She understood that

01:03:07Shen Mo really didn't

01:03:08want her,

01:03:09but she couldn't

01:03:10accept it.

01:03:11She couldn't lose him

01:03:12like that.

01:03:13She found out the

01:03:14Shen group's address,

01:03:14and the next morning

01:03:16went downstairs to

01:03:16wait under the

01:03:17company building.

01:03:18She was wearing a

01:03:19white dress and

01:03:20delicate makeup.

01:03:21She wanted to look

01:03:22like the person who

01:03:23had made Shen fall

01:03:24in love with her at

01:03:25first sight.

01:03:26Now,

01:03:26she stood there from

01:03:27morning until

01:03:27afternoon,

01:03:28watching people come

01:03:29and go.

01:03:30Finally,

01:03:30she saw that

01:03:31familiar Bendale car

01:03:32stop in front of the

01:03:33company.

01:03:33The car door opened

01:03:34and Shen Mo stepped

01:03:36out.

01:03:36He was wearing a

01:03:37black custom-made suit.

01:03:39His body was straight

01:03:40and confident,

01:03:41unked.

01:03:41His presence was

01:03:42extremely impressive,

01:03:43and his eyes were

01:03:44sharp and sharp and

01:03:45sharp.

01:03:45He seemed completely

01:03:46different from the

01:03:47quiet and reserved

01:03:48man Liu.

01:03:49Liu Ruyan had known

01:03:50before.

01:03:51Sechangan was walking

01:03:52with her.

01:03:53Sechangan was wearing

01:03:54a long champagne

01:03:54dress.

01:03:55Her hand was on

01:03:56Shen Mo's arm,

01:03:57and a gentle smile

01:03:58was on their face.

01:03:59They were walking

01:04:00together,

01:04:00a perfect pair,

01:04:02a handsome man,

01:04:03and a beautiful woman.

01:04:04The sight of this

01:04:05tore Liu Ruyan's

01:04:06heart apart.

01:04:07The pain was so

01:04:08intense that she

01:04:08couldn't breathe.

01:04:10She ran forward

01:04:11and blocked

01:04:12Shen Mo's path.

01:04:13No,

01:04:14Shen Mo stopped.

01:04:15His brow furrowed

01:04:16as he saw her.

01:04:17There was only

01:04:17coldness and

01:04:18impatience in her eyes.

01:04:20Zhu Qingan also

01:04:21stopped,

01:04:21but she didn't let

01:04:22go of Shen Mo's

01:04:23sister.

01:04:23She just calmly

01:04:24stared at Li Yan.

01:04:25There was no

01:04:26hostility in her eyes,

01:04:27only a slight

01:04:28distance and

01:04:28indifference.

01:04:29Come on,

01:04:30can you give me

01:04:31five minutes?

01:04:32Just five minutes.

01:04:33I want to talk

01:04:34to you.

01:04:35Liu Ruyan's eyes

01:04:36filled with tears.

01:04:37Her demeanor had

01:04:38become extremely

01:04:39humble and pitiful.

01:04:40I have nothing

01:04:41to say to you,

01:04:42Shen Mo.

01:04:42Shen Mo said

01:04:43coldly,

01:04:44talking about

01:04:45divorce with

01:04:45your lawyer.

01:04:46I won't get a

01:04:47divorce.

01:04:47Liu Ruyan looked

01:04:48at him tears,

01:04:49welling up.

01:04:50Come on,

01:04:5113 years of

01:04:52relationship,

01:04:53five years of

01:04:53marriage.

01:04:54Can you really

01:04:54just leave it

01:04:55like that?

01:04:56I know you

01:04:56still have

01:04:57feelings for

01:04:57me,

01:04:58don't you?

01:04:59I still have

01:05:00feelings for

01:05:01you.

01:05:01Shen Mo laughed

01:05:02mockingly.

01:05:03Lu Yan,

01:05:04don't you think

01:05:05too highly of

01:05:05yourself?

01:05:06The day I

01:05:07saw you

01:05:07taking off

01:05:07another man's

01:05:08shoes and

01:05:09socks in the

01:05:09Edinburgh rain.

01:05:11That day,

01:05:12all my feelings

01:05:12for you died.

01:05:14And the day

01:05:14you started

01:05:15making excuses

01:05:16to go to

01:05:16another man

01:05:16in the middle

01:05:17of the night

01:05:17that day.

01:05:18My passion

01:05:19for you

01:05:19also died,

01:05:20might.

01:05:21He stared at

01:05:22her.

01:05:23Every word of

01:05:23hers was a knife

01:05:24straight into

01:05:24his heart.

01:05:25You haven't

01:05:26come back to

01:05:26me today

01:05:27because you

01:05:28love me.

01:05:29You've come

01:05:30back because

01:05:30your honor

01:05:31is ruined.

01:05:32You've lost

01:05:33your support,

01:05:34so now you

01:05:34want to use

01:05:35me as a

01:05:35backup plan.

01:05:37It's a pity.

01:05:38I don't accept

01:05:39trash here

01:05:39anymore.

01:05:40Lu Ru Yan's

01:05:41face went

01:05:41white in an

01:05:41instant.

01:05:42Oh yes,

01:05:43I forgot to

01:05:44tell you one

01:05:45thing.

01:05:46Shen's voice

01:05:46was still as

01:05:47cold as ice.

01:05:48The Shen

01:05:48family is the

01:05:49biggest investor

01:05:50in the city

01:05:51hospital you

01:05:51work at,

01:05:52your medical

01:05:53license,

01:05:53and your

01:05:54department.

01:05:55We've

01:05:55submitted the

01:05:55relevant documents

01:05:56for re-examination

01:05:57of your research

01:05:58project.

01:05:59You know

01:06:00very well

01:06:00what you've

01:06:01done to

01:06:02reach where

01:06:02you are

01:06:03today.

01:06:04From today

01:06:05on you won't

01:06:05be able to

01:06:06work in the

01:06:06country's

01:06:06medical field.

01:06:07Lu Ru Yan's

01:06:08body trembled.

01:06:09She stumbled

01:06:09back a step

01:06:10and nearly

01:06:11fell.

01:06:12She finally

01:06:13understood

01:06:13how ruthless

01:06:14Shen Mo's

01:06:15revenge had

01:06:15been.

01:06:16He had not

01:06:17only ruined

01:06:17Shen but

01:06:18also taken

01:06:19away the

01:06:19most precious

01:06:20thing in

01:06:20her life.

01:06:21Come on,

01:06:22you can't

01:06:22do this to

01:06:23me.

01:06:24Li Yan cried

01:06:25in despair.

01:06:26That's my

01:06:26life's work,

01:06:27Shen Mo,

01:06:28looked at

01:06:28her coldly.

01:06:30You ruined

01:06:30my life's

01:06:31greatest

01:06:31passion and

01:06:33I ruined

01:06:34yours,

01:06:34your greatest

01:06:35achievement.

01:06:36Isn't this

01:06:36a fair

01:06:37calculation?

01:06:38There was

01:06:38no mercy

01:06:39in his

01:06:39eyes.

01:06:40With that,

01:06:40he didn't

01:06:41look at

01:06:41her again.

01:06:42He put

01:06:42his arm

01:06:43around

01:06:43Sachinkan's

01:06:44waist and

01:06:44walked

01:06:45straight into

01:06:45the company

01:06:45building.

01:06:46From start

01:06:47to finish,

01:06:48he didn't

01:06:48look back

01:06:49once.

01:06:50Li Yan stood

01:06:51there,

01:06:51staring at

01:06:52her back.

01:06:53Finally,

01:06:53unable to

01:06:54control herself,

01:06:55she collapsed

01:06:55to the ground,

01:06:56sobbing.

01:06:56Everyone

01:06:57around stared

01:06:58at her.

01:07:00Amidst the

01:07:01whispers and

01:07:01taunts,

01:07:02she had been

01:07:02utterly defeated.

01:07:04She was left

01:07:05humiliated like a

01:07:06clown.

01:07:07Sometime later,

01:07:08the Shen Group's

01:07:08annual medical

01:07:09summit was held

01:07:09at the Beijing

01:07:10International

01:07:10Convention Center.

01:07:12Top medical

01:07:13experts from

01:07:14around the world

01:07:14and almost all

01:07:15of China's

01:07:16leading medical

01:07:16companies attended.

01:07:18It was an

01:07:19event of

01:07:19unprecedented

01:07:19scale.

01:07:21I stood

01:07:21calmly on

01:07:22the main

01:07:22stage,

01:07:23dressed in a

01:07:23custom-tailored

01:07:24suit,

01:07:24delivering my

01:07:25speech.

01:07:25In the years

01:07:26since taking

01:07:26charge of the

01:07:27Shen Medical

01:07:27Division,

01:07:28I had

01:07:28implemented

01:07:28several major

01:07:29reforms.

01:07:30Under my

01:07:31leadership,

01:07:32Yuju Pharmaceutical

01:07:32developed several

01:07:33world-class

01:07:34innovative drugs.

01:07:35Many gaps in

01:07:36the country's

01:07:36medical technology

01:07:37were filled.

01:07:37A world-class

01:07:38medical research

01:07:39and development

01:07:40center was

01:07:40established.

01:07:41Deep

01:07:42collaborative

01:07:42relationships

01:07:43were also

01:07:43established with

01:07:44top universities

01:07:44like Harvard

01:07:45and Cambridge.

01:07:46Our private

01:07:46hospitals had

01:07:47also become

01:07:47the standard for

01:07:48high-quality

01:07:48medical services

01:07:49in China.

01:07:50In just one

01:07:50year,

01:07:51I had tripled

01:07:51the market

01:07:52value of

01:07:52the Shen

01:07:53Medical

01:07:53Division.

01:07:54I had

01:07:55become the

01:07:55undisputed

01:07:55leader of

01:07:56the country's

01:07:56medical industry.

01:07:57As soon as

01:07:58my speech

01:07:58ended,

01:07:58the entire

01:07:59hall erupted

01:08:00in applause.

01:08:01Everyone's

01:08:01eyes were

01:08:02on me,

01:08:03admiration

01:08:03and respect

01:08:04clearly visible

01:08:04in their

01:08:05eyes.

01:08:06After the

01:08:06speech ended,

01:08:07I calmed

01:08:07down.

01:08:08Suchingen

01:08:09immediately

01:08:09came to

01:08:10me and

01:08:10handed me

01:08:11a glass of

01:08:11warm water.

01:08:12A gentle

01:08:13smile was

01:08:13in her eyes.

01:08:14You gave

01:08:15a wonderful

01:08:15speech.

01:08:16I took

01:08:16the glass

01:08:17and smiled,

01:08:17stroking

01:08:18her hair.

01:08:18The coldness

01:08:20and sharpness

01:08:20in her eyes

01:08:21immediately

01:08:21melted into

01:08:22tenderness.

01:08:23You've been

01:08:23busy with

01:08:24me all

01:08:24morning.

01:08:25You're

01:08:25not tired.

01:08:26Suchingen

01:08:26smiled and

01:08:27nodded.

01:08:28Then she

01:08:29reached out

01:08:29and smoothed

01:08:29my shirt.

01:08:30All the

01:08:30arrangements

01:08:31for tonight's

01:08:31celebration

01:08:32banquet

01:08:32would have

01:08:32been made.

01:08:33Michael.

01:08:35I nodded

01:08:36and took

01:08:36her hand,

01:08:37our fingers

01:08:38entwined,

01:08:38for the past

01:08:39year.

01:08:40Suchingen

01:08:40had always

01:08:41been there

01:08:41for me.

01:08:42When I

01:08:42was busy

01:08:43at work,

01:08:44she would

01:08:44sit quietly

01:08:45beside me.

01:08:45She would

01:08:46not only

01:08:46help me

01:08:46with my

01:08:47work,

01:08:47but also

01:08:47take care of

01:08:49her.

01:08:50Sometimes

01:08:51when I

01:08:51would feel

01:08:52sad

01:08:52remembering

01:08:52the past,

01:08:53she would

01:08:54silently

01:08:54console me

01:08:55and show

01:08:55me the

01:08:55right path.

01:08:56Gradually,

01:08:57I learned

01:08:57to trust

01:08:57her

01:08:57completely.

01:08:59Her

01:08:59tenderness,

01:09:00her support,

01:09:00and her

01:09:01understanding

01:09:01began to

01:09:02heal the

01:09:03wounds in

01:09:03my heart,

01:09:03and she

01:09:04taught me

01:09:04to believe

01:09:05in love

01:09:06again.

01:09:07Three

01:09:07months ago,

01:09:08I proposed

01:09:08to Sachin

01:09:09in the

01:09:09same

01:09:09courtyard,

01:09:10where we

01:09:10grew up

01:09:11together.

01:09:12There was

01:09:12no grand

01:09:13ceremony,

01:09:13just a ring

01:09:14I designed

01:09:14myself and

01:09:15a question.

01:09:16Jingyan,

01:09:17will you

01:09:17spend the

01:09:18rest of

01:09:18your life

01:09:18with me?

01:09:19Sunyan's

01:09:20eyes

01:09:20welled with

01:09:20tears.

01:09:22She nodded

01:09:22and said,

01:09:23yes,

01:09:24I'm ready.

01:09:25Our wedding

01:09:25was scheduled

01:09:26for the

01:09:26following month.

01:09:27Just then,

01:09:28there was a

01:09:28sudden commotion

01:09:29at the entrance

01:09:29to the

01:09:29conference venue.

01:09:30I looked up

01:09:31and frowned,

01:09:32slightly,

01:09:33and happy.

01:09:34Standing at the

01:09:35door was

01:09:35Lyuroyan.

01:09:36She looked

01:09:37utterly devastated

01:09:37compared to a

01:09:38year ago.

01:09:39She was no

01:09:40longer the proud

01:09:41and confident

01:09:41surgeon she had

01:09:42been.

01:09:42Her hair was

01:09:43dry and

01:09:43lifeless.

01:09:44Her eyes

01:09:45were red.

01:09:45She was

01:09:46wearing faded

01:09:47white clothes.

01:09:48At this

01:09:49high-level

01:09:49conference,

01:09:50she looked

01:09:50completely

01:09:50dejected.

01:09:51Her life

01:09:52had been

01:09:52completely

01:09:53ruined in

01:09:53the past

01:09:53year.

01:09:54The city

01:09:55hospital had

01:09:56fired her.

01:09:57Her medical

01:09:58license was

01:09:59revoked.

01:09:59She could

01:10:00no longer

01:10:01perform

01:10:01surgeries.

01:10:02No hospital

01:10:02in the

01:10:03country would

01:10:03dare hire

01:10:04her.

01:10:05She had

01:10:05become an

01:10:06outcast in

01:10:06the medical

01:10:07world.

01:10:07When her

01:10:08parents learned

01:10:09of her

01:10:09actions,

01:10:09they were

01:10:10so enraged

01:10:11that they

01:10:11severed all

01:10:12ties with

01:10:12her.

01:10:13They refused

01:10:14to even

01:10:14see her

01:10:15again.

01:10:16Meanwhile,

01:10:17Xiao Chen

01:10:17was finally

01:10:17convicted of

01:10:18commercial fraud

01:10:19and tax evasion.

01:10:20He was

01:10:21sentenced to

01:10:2115 years in

01:10:22prison for

01:10:23tax evasion.

01:10:24The Xiao

01:10:24family went

01:10:25bankrupt and

01:10:26drowned in

01:10:26debt.

01:10:27There was

01:10:28no hope of

01:10:28recovery.

01:10:30Lu Yan had

01:10:30lost everything.

01:10:31She now

01:10:32lived in an

01:10:32old rented

01:10:33room and

01:10:34worked odd

01:10:34jobs to

01:10:35make ends

01:10:35meet.

01:10:36Every day

01:10:37she lived

01:10:37in regret.

01:10:38She watched

01:10:39my news.

01:10:40She watched

01:10:40me rise

01:10:41step by

01:10:41step.

01:10:42Seeing me

01:10:43and Sun

01:10:43Yan happy

01:10:44and in

01:10:44love tore

01:10:45her heart

01:10:45to pieces.

01:10:46She tried

01:10:47countless

01:10:47times to

01:10:48meet me

01:10:48but each

01:10:49time she

01:10:50couldn't

01:10:50even see

01:10:50me.

01:10:51Even at

01:10:52this conference

01:10:52today she

01:10:53somehow managed

01:10:53to sneak

01:10:54in.

01:10:55She just

01:10:55wanted to

01:10:55see me

01:10:56one more

01:10:56time.

01:10:57She just

01:10:58wanted to

01:10:58apologize to

01:10:58me one

01:10:59more time.

01:11:00The security

01:11:00guards stopped

01:11:01her from

01:11:01entering.

01:11:02She started

01:11:03sobbing wildly

01:11:04and screamed

01:11:05in my

01:11:05direction.

01:11:06Come in.

01:11:06Let me

01:11:07in.

01:11:07I have

01:11:08something to

01:11:08tell you.

01:11:09The entire

01:11:09hall turned

01:11:10to look

01:11:10at her.

01:11:11Whispers

01:11:11erupted

01:11:12everywhere.

01:11:13My face

01:11:13went cold.

01:11:14I waved

01:11:15at the

01:11:15security

01:11:16guards

01:11:16signaling

01:11:16them

01:11:17to let

01:11:17her

01:11:17go.

01:11:19Liu

01:11:19Ruian

01:11:19immediately

01:11:19broke

01:11:20free

01:11:20from

01:11:20their

01:11:20grasp

01:11:20and ran

01:11:21toward

01:11:21me.

01:11:21Staggering

01:11:22Ming.

01:11:22Tears

01:11:23welled up

01:11:23in Liu

01:11:23Ruian's

01:11:24eyes as

01:11:24she looked

01:11:24at me.

01:11:25The man

01:11:26standing

01:11:26before her

01:11:26was radiant.

01:11:27Full of

01:11:28success

01:11:28and confidence.

01:11:29He was

01:11:30the very

01:11:30happiness

01:11:31she had

01:11:31once held

01:11:32within her

01:11:32grasp and

01:11:33which she

01:11:33had rejected

01:11:34with her

01:11:34own

01:11:34hands.

01:11:35Liu

01:11:37Ruian's

01:11:37voice

01:11:37choked.

01:11:38I know

01:11:39I made

01:11:39a mistake.

01:11:40A very

01:11:40big mistake.

01:11:42I've

01:11:42regretted it

01:11:43every day

01:11:43for the

01:11:43past year.

01:11:44I think

01:11:45of you

01:11:45every day.

01:11:46Can you

01:11:47give me

01:11:47another

01:11:48chance?

01:11:49Even

01:11:49if I'm

01:11:49just

01:11:50allowed

01:11:50to stay

01:11:50with you,

01:11:51I'm

01:11:52willing

01:11:52to do

01:11:52anything.

01:11:53I looked

01:11:54at her.

01:11:55My eyes

01:11:55were calm.

01:11:56There was

01:11:56no emotion

01:11:57in them.

01:11:57No wave.

01:11:58No pity.

01:11:59Ruian,

01:12:00do you

01:12:00still remember?

01:12:01I said

01:12:01slowly.
