The dungeon was dark and damp, yet there was a faint warmth and sweetness in the man's eyes.
"I love her; marrying her is my greatest blessing."
"She is beautiful, talented, smart, and kind."
"Her fate has not been kind; I must protect her and give her everything I can."
"Yun Shaoyan, you may not understand, but I must survive and return to her. I will."
He listened to the man's rambling words filled with affection, feeling a deep confusion within.
He had never experienced such feelings—loving someone so deeply that he would risk everything for them. Just the thought of that person could bring a genuine smile to his face, even in this filthy and dire place.
Curiosity got the better of him, and he asked, "What is her name?"
"Su Lingyu."
Suddenly, he felt an urge to meet this person.
Outside, faint singing could be heard, and through the curtain, he could vaguely see the performers' graceful movements on stage.
Su Lingyu tilted her head, her brows tightly knitted together.
The butler called out to her several times before she snapped back to reality.
She rubbed her sore eyes with her slender fingers and asked softly, "Has the Zhang Family made a decision?"
"Yes." Mo Qing glanced at Su Lingyu's slightly pale face, paused for a moment, and then continued, "They have decided to collaborate with the newly emerged Cloud Mark Workshop."
Su Lingyu's half-closed eyes made it difficult to discern her emotions. Mo Qing looked outside and suddenly caught sight of a figure, saying, "That is the owner of Cloud Mark Workshop, Yun Shaoyan."
Su Lingyu's weary almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly as she followed Mo Qing's gaze and indeed saw a man in a white suit, standing tall and confident.
Opposite him was Boss Zhang, who had originally arranged to collaborate with the Wen Family. Before Mo Qing could take any action, Su Lingyu had already stood up and walked outside, her figure slender yet upright.
"Boss Zhang, I didn't expect to see you here." The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, her beautiful eyes curving up, but her words carried an undercurrent of dissatisfaction.
Boss Zhang was taken aback for a moment, realizing what she was referring to. He chuckled awkwardly and pointed at Yun Shaoyan, introducing him, "This is Boss Yun, who has just established himself in Meiyuan Town. He returned from overseas and brought back that business model; he is definitely a skilled player in the industry."
From the moment Su Lingyu appeared, Yun Shaoyan's gaze had not shifted away from her. The smile on his lips grew more pronounced as he asked, "Is this the boss lady of the Wen Family shop that you often mention? I must say, I didn't expect someone who receives such praise from you to be such a delicate beauty."
His seemingly complimentary tone concealed a hint of frivolity.
Su Lingyu frowned and retorted sarcastically, "Those who snatch business are often shameless scoundrels. Meeting the legendary Boss Yun today only confirms that saying!"
"Miss Su, are you angry that I took your business?"
"How could I dare? Winning or losing is common in business; I certainly won't hold this against you. Mr. Yun is overthinking it."
With their conversation going nowhere, Su Lingyu exchanged a few pleasantries before leaving the restaurant with Mo Qing.
As they drove along the road, Su Lingyu fell into deep thought once again.
The current state of the Wen Family was not as glorious as it once was. Missing out on this business opportunity made it even harder to gain a similar chance in the future. She needed to come up with a plan to turn this crisis around.
The car sped along, the cool wind rushing into her clothes. Su Lingyu tightened her shawl around her shoulders, but her body still trembled slightly.
She didn’t know how much longer she could hold on.
Three months ago, she had been a newlywed, only to receive the devastating news of her husband’s unexpected death on their wedding day.
With sorrow and helplessness having no outlet, she could only force herself to take on everything for the Wen Family. No matter how much pain she felt, she had to swallow it alone.
The car came to a stop in front of the Wen Family mansion. Su Lingyu got out and hurriedly followed Silly Girl to Old Madam's room.
From behind the slightly ajar door came a series of violent coughs that made her heart tighten.
This family was her reason to endure.
Yun Shaoyan returned from a business meeting, loosened his tie, and lazily sank into the sofa, not wanting to move at all. He wearily closed his eyes, and an image of a white figure he had seen during the day involuntarily flashed through his mind.
He recalled what Boss Zhang had said: “This Miss Su is quite capable; she has managed to keep the Wen Family afloat until now. But what people are saying outside isn’t flattering at all. After all, she just got married when the Wen Family fell into misfortune. No matter how good a woman she is, no one would dare take her…”
A smirk played on his lips as a thought crossed his mind: he wanted to see her.
Su Lingyu, I finally get to meet you.
