You got your marriage certificate and then abandoned me? I'll feed the richest woman in the wor

Chen Yuan answered the phone, and a fat man's excited shout came from the other end: "Brother Yuan! The acquisition and handover of the Lin Group is complete! What should we do with the remaining Lin family employees?"

The phone was held to the ear.

Chen Yuan's gaze passed through the manor's floor-to-ceiling windows and fell upon the deep night outside.

His voice was completely flat.

It exudes a bone-chilling cold.

"Those who are capable, stay and do the work."

"Those vampires who live off the Lin family's connections are all kicked out."

"The severance pay should be capped at the minimum standard; don't give a penny more."

With just a few simple words, the dead end of that group of parasites was sealed.

On the other end of the phone, Wang Kai readily agreed.

Chen Yuan hung up the phone and casually tossed it onto the coffee table.

The screen's light gradually dimmed.

The former office building of the Lin Group in downtown Jianghai.

Dark, gloomy clouds pressed down on the glass curtain wall.

As a result, the lighting in the lobby on the first floor became dim and oppressive.

Cold air seeped in through the gaps in the revolving door.

Lin Qinghan stood on the smooth marble floor tiles of the hall.

He was wearing a pair of cheap canvas shoes that he had bought for thirty yuan from a street stall.

The soles of the shoes are so thin that you can feel the coldness of the floor tiles directly.

He was wearing an old, yellowed coat, with the zipper pulled all the way up.

Those once-filled wardrobes with Chanel haute couture and limited-edition Hermès bags.

The villa and the building had already been sealed off by the court.

My stomach feels empty.

Only excessive gastric acid is burning the fragile stomach wall.

The pain was so intense that she could only bend over and press her stomach tightly with both arms.

There wasn't even a single grain of rice left in the house.

Lin Jianguo's slashed finger became infected and festered. He had no money to go to the hospital for treatment, so he could only wrap it in rags and let it rot.

Wang Guilan throws tantrums and screams every day in the cramped rented room, causing headaches to run wild.

For a meal costing a few dozen yuan.

In order to avoid starving to death in the urban village.

She could only swallow all her pride.

Returning to the place where I once held sway and was in a position of great power.

"Could you please let me meet the new boss?"

Lin Qinghan walked to the front desk.

His voice was so hoarse it sounded like he'd swallowed a handful of shards of glass.

She bent her waist very low, her posture so humble it was almost insignificant.

The receptionist is touching up her lipstick in front of the mirror.

Hearing the sound, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at her.

A huge roll of the whites appeared in his eyes.

"Hey, isn't this the arrogant CEO Lin from before?"

"Why are you dressed like a ragpicker coming back?"

The harsh mockery was like a resounding slap in the face.

He slapped Lin Qinghan hard across the face.

Her cheeks burned, and her nails dug deep into the flesh of her palms.

The feeling of humiliation crept up my spine.

"Please, I just want my new boss to give me a job."

"I'm willing to do anything, whether it's cleaning or data entry, as long as I get paid."

She lowered her head, trampling her dignity into the mud.

Ding--

The private VIP elevator at the far end of the lobby.

Suddenly, a crisp notification sound was emitted.

The security guards and receptionists who had been mocking Lin Qinghan instantly changed their expressions.

I've stopped reapplying my lipstick.

They all stood ramrod straight, not daring to breathe loudly.

"The new CEO has come downstairs!"

"Get this crazy woman away! Don't let her offend our important guest!"

Two security guards rushed up and grabbed Lin Qinghan's arms from both sides.

They roughly dragged her towards the gate.

The elevator's metal doors slid open slowly to both sides.

A group of executives in suits escorted one person out.

Lin Qinghan clung tightly to the load-bearing pillar in the hall.

He desperately turned his head, trying to see the new boss who held the power of life and death.

As long as I can beg him.

Even kneeling on the ground and kowtowing could earn enough to feed a family.

My gaze traveled through the layers of people.

The man walking in the middle was wearing a slightly tight-fitting custom-made suit.

He wore the highest-level employee badge from Star Venture Capital around his neck.

He strode ahead.

Lin Qinghan's pupils contracted sharply, and she even paused for a moment.

The new president, who walked in the center position and was surrounded by all the senior executives like a star.

It's Wang Kai!

That fat best friend of Chen Yuan's who follows him around all day and is so poor that he has to borrow money for food!

It used to be at the Lin family villa.

Every time Wang Kai came to see Chen Yuan, Lin Qinghan would have someone take away and throw away the teacup he had used.

They wouldn't even let him step over the threshold, for fear of getting the wool carpet dirty.

just now.

This fat man was being trampled under her feet.

He actually became the high-ranking new president.

Wang Kai stopped in his tracks.

Looking down at Lin Qinghan, who was being held in mid-air by security guards.

His chubby face was filled with undisguised glee.

"Isn't this Miss Lin?"

Wang Kai dusted off his suit and strode over.

The leather shoes made a dull clattering sound as they stepped on the marble floor.

"Why are you making a fool of yourself here?"

Lin Qinghan was trembling all over.

But now she doesn't even have the right to beg for food.

"Mr. Wang... Mr. Wang."

She forced out the name from her chapped lips.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, leaving dirty streaks.

"Please, give me a job, my parents are starving to death..."

Wang Kai snorted coldly.

He pulled a thick acquisition document from under his arm.

This is the final certificate of ownership that I just received from the notary office.

With a flick of his wrist, he slammed the document down in front of Lin Qinghan.

"Give you a job? You think you're worthy?"

"Open your eyes wide and look carefully, what's the name of this building now!"

The documents fell to the ground and scattered.

At the bottom of the first page, a bright red official seal was affixed to the black ink on white paper.

Lin Qinghan's gaze unconsciously fell on it.

At the signature of the legal entity representing the highest authority.

Two powerful, vigorous characters, written in a flowing, elegant style.

Like two sharp swords, they pierced straight through her eyeballs.

"Chen Yuan".

It felt like a ton of explosives were detonating in my head at once.

All cognition was utterly shattered into dust at this moment.

It turns out that Star Ventures belongs to no one but themselves.

It turns out that Wang Kai was just an agent pushed to the forefront.

The ultimate mastermind who drained the Lin family dry on the dark web and then openly swallowed up all of the Lin family's assets.

From beginning to end, there was only one person.

Lin Qinghan stared at the final legal signature on the acquisition document in Wang Kai's hand, then collapsed to the ground as if struck by lightning: "The mysterious tycoon who bought my life's work... is actually Chen Yuan?!"
