The next morning, Madam Lin appeared distraught, and Lin Fei Wei's complexion was also poor. Lin Ze Han looked at his mother and asked with concern, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"I'm looking for your sister, but the trail has gone cold." Madam Lin's face was haggard.
Lin Fei Wei paused her steak-eating. She asked with resentment, "Mom, why are you still looking? If you find your birth daughter, will you send me away?"
"I certainly don't mean that. I just want to know where my daughter is and if she's doing well. The thought of her suffering all these years outside makes my heart ache." Madam Lin's eyes reddened.
Lin Fei Wei was still unhappy. Lin Ze Han comforted his mother, "Mom, don't worry too much. We'll definitely find your sister."
"You two are going too far!" Lin Fei Wei couldn't stand her mother and brother both looking for their birth daughter. She angrily threw down her cutlery and got up to leave.
Mr. Lin also put down his cutlery. "Even if you're looking for someone, don't hurt Fei Wei's feelings! She's more important to this family. I'm going to the company."
Only mother and son remained at the table. Madam Lin looked at her son with pain. "I just want to find my birth daughter. Am I wrong?"
"Mom, you're not wrong at all. I'll help you." Lin Ze Han held his mother's hand.
Madam Lin's mood improved slightly.
Lin Fei Wei ran to the backyard and, in her anger, tore up the flowers and scattered them on the ground, but it didn't ease her frustration.
When she returned, she overheard her mother talking to a close friend on the phone, mentioning that the last place the maid worked in the capital was the Gu family's residence.
Lin Fei Wei thought, isn't the Gu family's residence Gu Yun Ting's home?
"Ye Wen Qing, I will definitely find her!" Madam Lin said indignantly.
Lin Fei Wei noted down the name and quietly left. Was Ye Wen Qing her birth mother's name? No! She would never admit to having such a lowly birth mother!
That lowly maid was surnamed Ye, and Ye Wan was also surnamed Ye. How could there be such a coincidence?
...
Ye Wan slept until past ten o'clock. When she woke up, Gu Yun Ting was no longer there. She picked up her phone to check the day's trending topics. As expected, her phone was flooded with news about the Chu Corporation's stock plummeting and several executives being taken away by the procuratorate for investigation.
Ye Wan's mood instantly improved, and the pain in her leg even lessened. She continued to follow the news. The Kong family had already announced the dissolution of the engagement with the Chu family, and all cooperative projects had been withdrawn.
Next came news of other major cooperating companies withdrawing their investments. The Chu Corporation building completely collapsed and instantly disintegrated!
When Jin Lan entered, he looked unhappy. Ye Wan quickly put her phone away.
"Little Wan Ye, I'm here to give you an IV drip. The nurse will come to change your dressing. If I do it, I'm afraid Gu Yun Ting will hunt me down," Jin Lan said listlessly.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Ye Wan would never tell anyone that the downfall of the Chu family was her doing.
Of course, she was the instigator, but Gu Yun Ting was the ultimate pusher.
If Gu Yun Ting had been willing to help Chu Zi Yin, the Chu family might still have a chance to recover. As long as Gu Yun Ting stood by and did nothing, no one would dare to help the Chu family, and the Chu Corporation would be finished.
"Your family, Chu Zi Yin's family... it's over! Sigh!" Jin Lan understood clearly. Although the Chu Corporation was still struggling, bankruptcy was only a matter of time, likely no more than three days.
"Are you very sad?" Ye Wan actually didn't want to see Jin Lan unhappy. This guy was always cheerful, no matter what happened. She rarely saw him so downcast.
