1 Chapter 1 Wedding, Truth_1

It was said that he built for her the most beautiful castle in the world, named Chang'an Forever.

Then, it was said that she ultimately left Chang'an Forever.

It took her a complete four years to understand that the so-called Chang'an Forever was a place she had never been to.

Qin Yin: I hope we have no ability to turn back time, and I wish to share deep affection throughout the remaining years.

Nan Sichen: In fact, I have always remembered, remembered the first time I met her.

What can one do about a person they had a crush on at first sight?

That day, that year, my mind was whirling as if I had lost a rosary bead, and my devotion was to you at first glance.

The banquet hall of the Qin Family was brightly lit, filled with guests; the dazzling lights were in sharp contrast to the darkness outside. The brilliant lights fell on the gold and silver decorations, casting a golden glow over the entire banquet hall.

Fragrance wafted back and forth as people moved about. The smell of wine and rouge intertwined, creating a hint of decadence.

Today was the wedding celebration of Li Yueyi and Qin Muliang. However, Qin Yin, trembling in disbelief, sat on the steps in the garden, unable to comprehend why things had turned out this way.

Li Yueyi was incredibly kind to her every day. She was so gentle, so good, and even her daughter was so innocent and attractive. This was why she had agreed to her father's marriage proposal.

Her mother had been dead for two years, and Li Yueyi had moved into the Qin Family home more than a year ago. She had never once raised her voice at Qin Yin; her kindness towards her was even more than she extended to her own daughter, Qin Han.

But just now, she overheard a conversation between Li Yueyi and Qin Han which hinted at their possible collusion in her mother's death.

Li Yueyi recommended that Qin Han should strive to work at the RM Group after her internship, as it was necessary to foster good relationships with some people in the RM Group.

She did not think it was unusual at first. After all, it's perfectly normal for a mother to plan for her daughter's future. But then, she overheard them mentioning her mother.

They even mentioned the procurement affairs handled by her mother. She heard Li Yueyi say to Qin Han, "Hanhan, once you join the RM Group, you must go to the Finance Department. There's a procurement account there, help me care of it. It's Zhao Xingyuan's old account. After her suicide, I thought everything was settled. But something's come up again, now someone wants to look into that account, you must deal with it swiftly, understand? "

Upon hearing this, she could hardly believe it. Could it be that Li Yueyi was involved in her mother's procurement case? Judging from her tone, it seemed like she was responsible.

Was it intentional or unintentional?

Just as Qin Yin was pondering, she heard Qin Han speak, "Mom, wasn't that case settled? Why bring it up again? Now that you're married to Dad, even if that woman is dead, what can she do?"

Finally, she understood. It turned out that her mother's death was all orchestrated by this mother-daughter duo. And to think she had once thought of them as a good stepmother and stepsister, having shared everything with them.

But what could she do now? Her father had already married Li Yueyi.

Qin Yin sat on the cold steps, her entire being enveloped in intense grief, exuding a palpable sense of sorrow.

Not far away, a faint spark flickered, suggesting that someone was smoking there. The person quickly approached, and under the light streaming out from the banquet hall, she could see who it was.

It was Nan Sichen.

They had grown up together, but she was not familiar with him. His family, the Nan Family, held immense power in Jiang City, while the Qin Family was nothing more than a small family running a modest business. How could they possibly be familiar with each other?
