I won.
All the property and power of the Meng Family have fallen into my hands.
I have become the true master of Meng Corporation.
Looking at everything before me, I only feel an unprecedented fatigue.
When I first returned to the Meng Family, Meng's Father treated me coldly, Meng's Mother was full of suspicion, and Meng Xue and Meng Jie wished they could drive me away.
Now, Meng's Father and Meng's Mother are dead, and Meng Xue and Meng Jie have received their due punishment.
In the entire Meng Family, I am the only one left.
I was once trapped in so-called familial ties, unable to move an inch; now I am alone, yet incredibly liberated.
I am Meng Qing. Now, I have my own Meng Family.
I decided to let go of my obsessions and start a new life.
I disposed of all the assets of the Meng Family, leaving only a portion for personal living expenses, while donating the rest to charity.
Then, I left that city and moved to a brand new place.
This city is located in the south, with a pleasant climate and a slow pace of life, making it ideal for living.
With the remaining money, I opened a small company and began running my own little business.
Although it is not as large as Meng Corporation, it is still somewhat scaled.
I bought a small apartment. Although it is not big, it is arranged in a simple and cozy way.
Unlike the luxurious mansion I had at the Meng Family, there are not many decorations here, nor are there any extravagant furnishings.
But this place makes me feel at ease.
Sometimes, I dream about the unpleasant things from the past, but every time I wake up, I quickly find my inner peace again.
I started to pay attention to charitable causes, using my resources to help those in need.
In this process, I felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment and tranquility.
Although I once had immense wealth and power, I now cherish this ordinary and genuine life even more.
I think this is the life I want.
One morning, I walked into a café.
This café is one of my favorites; the owner is a young girl who is very beautiful and good at business.
Every time I come in, she prepares a cup of my favorite coffee for me.
Today, however, she made me a new coffee that has a very special flavor, something I have never tasted before.
I was curious and asked her what kind of coffee it was.
She smiled and told me that it was specially prepared for me, with coffee beans that her father brought back from abroad, giving it a unique taste.
I really like this coffee, so I decided to buy some more to take home.
The girl was very happy and packed some coffee beans for me, also giving me a VIP Card, which allows me to enjoy a 20% discount every time I come in the future.
I thanked her and left with the coffee beans.
As I reached the door, a stranger walked towards me.
He was tall, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and looked quite refined.
He had a smile on his face and seemed very friendly.
We brushed past each other, but for some reason, I suddenly stopped in my tracks.
I turned around, looked at him, and asked, "Excuse me, are you here to drink coffee too?"
The man was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile.
"Yes, I heard the coffee here is quite good, so I came to try it."
I nodded and asked, "So do you like the coffee here?"
The man thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, I'm not a big fan. I find the coffee here too bitter for my taste."
I chuckled and replied, "Actually, the coffee isn't that bitter; it's just that your heart is too bitter."
The man was stunned for a moment, then fell silent before saying, "Perhaps. But some people are destined to bear more pain and responsibility."
I looked at him and said nothing.
The man smiled and extended his hand, saying, "Nice to meet you, my name is Lin Fan."
I gently shook his hand and replied, "Gu Qing."
Lin Fan chuckled and said, "Your name sounds lovely."
I smiled back but didn't say anything.
Lin Fan and I sat in the café for a long time, talking about many things.
We chatted like two old friends, discussing life, sharing experiences, and reminiscing about the past.
I never imagined I would talk so much with a stranger.
But for some reason, I really enjoyed this feeling.
Perhaps it was because I had let go of my past obsessions and found a new direction in life.
I no longer avoided the past, nor did I fear facing myself.
I was ready to coexist peacefully with my past and continue looking forward to embrace a new future.
