I looked up at Liang Guangzhou and said, "Let's go."
Liang Guangzhou lowered his head and kissed me. After a while, he released me, breathing heavily, and said, "Qu Man, you are mine."
I nodded, "Yes, I am yours."
Liang Guangzhou smiled with satisfaction, wrapping his arm around my shoulders as he led me away.
After Liang Jiacheng's engagement banquet, he officially took over all the wealth and power of the Liang Family.
In this battle for inheritance, Liang Guangzhou was defeated.
Outside, there were rumors that Liang Guangzhou initially had a better chance than Liang Jiacheng, but he lost completely because he was infatuated with me.
I simply smiled lightly upon hearing this.
I had no time to listen to such gossip; I was busy making money.
After losing the Liang Family's assets, Liang Guangzhou became even busier.
The second time he took me to the lakeside, I learned that he had another company outside.
Moreover, it was much stronger than the Liang Family.
His company was nurtured using the resources of the Liang Family, strong enough to potentially swallow the Liang Family whole.
Having been with the Liang Family for so many years, he certainly knew where their weaknesses lay.
Thus, his company could be described as the Nemesis of the Liang Family.
Meanwhile, my own company grew rapidly with Liang Guangzhou's help.
Liang Guangzhou said, "Manman, I can't give you the status of the matriarch of the Liang Family, nor can I let you receive the applause and admiration of the world."
"The only thing I can give you is the ability to gain power, money, and recognition on your own."
He held me close and pointed at the lake.
"Just like in this grassland, I can teach you how to hunt and help you claim a piece of land."
"Instead of just feeding you meat."
I felt deeply moved.
Indeed, only by achieving everything through my own efforts would I no longer worry about losing it or wonder if Liang Jiacheng would love me if I weren't like Chen Yue.
I wouldn't fear losing anyone's love anymore.
What he gave me was the best gift and promise I could imagine.
Old Lady Liang passed away from overwork.
Liang Guangzhou and I returned to the Liang Family to pay our respects.
When Liang Jiacheng saw us, he merely cast a deep glance at me.
I know he is physically and mentally exhausted.
Old Master Liang's illegitimate son, raised abroad, has returned home. He has received Old Master Liang's favor and a portion of the Liang Family's assets. This was something Old Lady Liang never expected. Throughout her life, she had been wary of Liang Guangzhou, only to have another illegitimate son emerge unexpectedly. Old Lady Liang was so furious that she passed away.
Liang Jiacheng is under immense pressure; his illegitimate sister is following in the footsteps of her illegitimate brother, seeking out reporters to publicize her background and claim her share of the inheritance. At this moment, Chen Yue is no longer sweet and charming. She looks haggard and weary. She walks straight up to me.
"What kind of drug did you give him?" Chen Yue asks me. I look at her in confusion and ask if she has lost her mind. Ignoring my question, she continues, "For the past two years, he has made me wear your clothes, imitate your style, mimic your behavior, and even at night... at night he calls out your name..."
As she speaks, she starts to cry. Her words are absurd and laughable, but I cannot bring myself to laugh. I glance at her makeup, hairstyle, and clothing... she really does resemble me. She has become my substitute.
I turn my gaze away in annoyance and look up at Liang Guangzhou: "Guangzhou, I'm tired; I want to leave." Liang Guangzhou glances once more at Old Lady Liang's portrait, takes my hand, and we turn to leave together. Chen Yue curses me from behind with a shrill voice, completely losing her composure. I stop in my tracks but ultimately do not turn around.
After Old Lady Liang's funeral, the Liang Family faced turmoil. Several key businesses were targeted, leading to a severe shrinkage in market share. Old Master Liang and his son were exposed for illegal operations, tax evasion, and unfair competition; the entire Liang Family fell apart except for Liang Jiacheng. The stock market trembled as shareholders frantically sold off their shares, banks came knocking for debts, and the Liang Family's financial chain broke.
In a single night, the Liang Family's empire collapsed, never to regain its former glory.
Liang Jiacheng lost everything in an instant.
From being the center of attention to becoming someone everyone avoided.
I had someone deliver a card to him, returning every penny of the breakup fee he had given me back then.
But he sent the card back, and the messenger conveyed his words: "Thank you."
Although Liang Jiacheng had fallen on hard times, he was not reduced to living on the streets.
He still had the ability to make a living, and he was truly capable; if given the chance, he could turn things around again.
I took the card back and didn’t mention it again.
As for Chen Yue, after the downfall of the Liang Family, she immediately divorced Liang Jiacheng.
Her actions did nothing to save the Liang Family.
Chen Yue's father's company relied on the Liang Family's industries for survival.
With the Liang Family gone, her father's company was also on shaky ground.
Not long after, the company was found to have a dark history and was teetering on the brink of collapse.
Ultimately, Chen Yue's father went bankrupt.
On the night her father's company declared bankruptcy, I was at the window with Liang Guangzhou, admiring the moon and raising our glasses in celebration.
"Look at the moon," Liang Guangzhou exaggeratedly pointed at it.
I couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, I see it."
"The moonlight is really beautiful tonight," Liang Guangzhou said with a smile.
I smiled back: "Indeed, it's beautiful."
Liang Guangzhou took my hand, our fingers intertwined.
I turned to look at him, and he looked at me, his dark eyes sparkling like stars.
He said, "Thank you for not letting me be alone anymore."
In my heart, I silently said: Thank you for teaching me independence and confidence.
The moonlight is truly beautiful.
