She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

Chapter 107 doesn't seem like something Shen Pei'an would do.

Fu Xiuheng was stunned. "You knew? But... but I didn't know that Shenghai Group was a company you founded. If I had known, I would have stopped him when he first set his sights on Nancheng."

"President Fu, you're overthinking it," Lin Qingran said.

"If you had known earlier, you would not have stopped at that time, you would have been even more ruthless."

Lin Qingran stepped forward and stared intently at Fu Xiuheng.

"You and I used to be completely irreconcilable, Mr. Fu, you haven't forgotten, have you? Mr. Fu, it's okay to deceive others, but don't keep deceiving yourself until you start believing it yourself."

Fu Xiuheng took two steps back in disbelief. Did Lin Qingran really think that way about him?

In Lin Qingran's eyes, he was such a wicked person.

"Does President Fu have anything else to say?" Lin Qingran asked.

"If Mr. Fu is just trying to argue with me about these trivial matters, then I'm not going to play along."

Lin Qingran turned to leave, but Fu Xiuheng panicked and rushed forward to grab her wrist.

"The reason I know about Rongrong's accident is because I've been keeping an eye on the Lin family's activities lately! I know there are many things he's done that you can't tolerate, and I'm willing to sincerely repent and make up for all the losses I've caused to Shenghai Group! But this time, I really didn't collude with the Lin family!"

"I understand," Lin Qingran replied calmly.

Bo Ye stepped forward and pulled Fu Xiuheng's hand away.

"Are you done talking? If you are, then don't keep bothering me."

"Qingran!" Fu Xiuheng raised his voice.

"Let go," Lin Qingran said coldly.

"The grudges between us are irreconcilable. Today we can speak calmly, but if we meet again in the future, we will be enemies."

Fu Xiuheng looked at Lin Qingran in disbelief and shook his head slightly.

"Are you really this heartless? Just because I didn't trust you, just because I didn't know your identity, you did those things to Shenghai Group? But if I were in your shoes, what would you have done?"

Lin Qingran turned to look at Fu Xiuheng, "Perhaps. People are all driven by fame and fortune. If I were you, I would probably do the same to the Fu Group, even resorting to any means to attack our rivals. But Fu Xiuheng, it's been quite a while since we last met. You haven't investigated what happened between me and Lin Yuyan yet, have you? Fu Xiuheng, you're arrogant and conceited, but you're also a coward."

Lin Qingran forcefully shook off Fu Xiuheng's hand and left with Bo Ye.

Fu Xiuheng's eyes reddened, and his breathing became extremely heavy.

Anger, regret, and resentment were all intertwined in his mind.

He wasn't angered by Lin Qingran's words, but rather because Lin Qingran was right.

He truly lacked the courage to confront the past.

Fu Xiuheng clenched his fists. Perhaps he was not sincere enough in matters of the heart, and he had hurt Lin Qingran.

However, Fu Xiuheng was taught from a young age not to act on emotion.

Putting all that aside, he was clearly considering the interests of the Fu Group and the Fu family in everything he did, so how could he be wrong?

"President, let's go back." Lu An walked up to us without us noticing.

Fu Xiuheng suddenly turned around and grabbed Lu An's arm.

Lu An looked at Fu Xiuheng and was greatly surprised.

His eyes were bloodshot, like those of a mad, bloodthirsty leopard. He almost ground his teeth to powder before he spoke.

"You, go and investigate what happened between Lin Qingran and Lin Yuyan back then. I need to know all the results by tomorrow morning. I'm going."

"well."

Lu An stammered an agreement before turning and running away.

He barely dared to breathe as he ran to the underground parking lot. Only after getting into his car did he feel his frantic heartbeat calm down a bit.

So many years have passed, and he and Lin Qingran are now completely on opposite sides. What's the point of investigating those past events now?

Lu An is not the type to cause trouble for no reason; he will only do things for Fu Xiuheng if Fu Xiuheng gives him an order.

Therefore, Lu An was not clear about the grudges between Lin Qingran and Lu An back then.

But sometimes he would suddenly feel that Lin Qingran must have suffered a lot of injustice during those five years.

Lu An had a feeling, though he didn't know where it came from, but he always felt that if he found out the truth, Fu Xiuheng would be heartbroken.

As the night deepened and the capital gradually quieted down, it was already early winter. Standing outdoors, one could exhale white mist with every breath.

Zhou Lan seemed oblivious to the cold winter night, sitting alone in the pavilion in the backyard of the Lin residence, wearing only a thin blanket.

The teapot on the stone table in front of her had gone cold, but Zhou Lan still reached out and poured herself a cup of cold tea, sipping it slowly.

Suddenly, Aunt Liu rushed over and said, "Madam, the young lady from the Jiang family is out of danger."

Zhou Lan's hand trembled, and the tea spilled onto the table.

"How did your men do their job? Didn't I tell you to eliminate them completely?"

"I'm not really sure either," Aunt Liu shook her head.

According to the plan, the car that hit them had been tampered with beforehand; it would explode after the accident, leaving the three people with nowhere to escape.

However, the expected explosion did not occur; instead, the car veered off course and crashed directly into Jiang Xinyuan in the back seat.

However, because Jiang Xinyuan was sitting in a high chair, although she suffered severe injuries, the damage was mitigated and did not take her life.

Zhou Lan slumped into a chair. "This won't do. Once they realize what's going on, they'll definitely keep asking questions. We need to make sure they sort things out beforehand and don't expose us."

Aunt Liu nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Madam, Zhao Quanying has already taken care of these matters. However..."

"What?" Zhou Lan looked at her in confusion.

"I have a feeling that someone is trying to obstruct this whole thing. Do you think it could be Mr. [Name]?"

"Shen Pei'an?"

Zhou Lan fell into deep thought.

This does indeed seem like Shen Pei'an's style of doing things, but Shen Pei'an recently got into trouble in Nancheng, and with Zhang Yihong's sudden withdrawal of investment, Shen Pei'an is now extremely busy.

He had no time to pay attention to what he had done, let alone try to send someone to secretly stop him.

“It doesn’t look like him,” Zhou Lan said.

"Then... what if someone secretly tipped you off or assisted you, sir?" Aunt Liu asked tentatively.

Zhou Lan frowned. "You mean, that one?"
