As the door closed with a click, silence returned to the room. Jin Ze held the same pose and expression he had when Qin Yinan left for a long time as he stared at the closed door. Then, he slowly moved his gaze away to fall on the document on the table. He bent down to pick up a cigar, lit it, and walked slowly toward the window.

Beijing at night was as bright as day, but for some reason, even wreathed in light, there was an undercurrent of melancholy to everything.

Jin Ze took a slow draft of the cigar and puffed out a beautiful smoke ring. Looking at the glittering lights, the man who normally only had time for the present and future suddenly found himself reminiscing about the past.

He was a man who didn’t have time for his past, and eventually, people often forgot the humble beginning that he came from. In fact, he too was caught in this mirage that he had created because he often found himself believing he was born with the riches. In reality, he was born poor, with barely anything to eat as a child. It was then that he swore to earn plenty of money to have a life free of basic worries like food and clothes.

He was talented and hardworking. He soon won many people’s respect and married Xiao Yin, who came from a rather respectable family.

Xiao Yin was a gentle woman and an only daughter; the dowry that she brought with her was the capital to his first business venture. It failed horribly, and he ended up in a mountain of debt.

The house that they were living in then was a gift from his in-laws. It was registered under Xiao Yin’s name. In the end, it was Xiao Yin who went behind his back to sell the house to help him clear his debt. He had to move into a dormitory alongside Xiao Yin.

It was true that misery loves company.

It was then that Xiao Yin was pregnant with their first child. At the time, they couldn’t even take care of themselves, much less a child. For the sake of the child, he considered having Xiao Yin abort the child and they would have another when they were in better conditions, but he didn’t know how to bring that up. It was Xiao Yin who saw into his heart and brought up the idea of abortion on her own.

Due to poverty, Xiao Yin didn’t have the avenue to make a good recovery. She failed to get pregnant for several years after that.

His career started to turn for the better. Their home kept changing, each one bigger than the one preceding it, until they moved into a luxurious bungalow.

Xiao Yin was finally pregnant again, but he was busy, busy working, busy expanding his empire, busy earning more money. He was so busy that when Xiao Yin went into labor, he was at a business meeting.

His daughter grew up without his company. He had seen his daughter less than ten times by the time she was three.

He believed that money was the best way to show his love for them until the day of the accident. His daughter accidentally wandered to the middle of the road, and a car was rushing down at her. In an attempt to save her daughter, Xiao Yin jumped to push her daughter away. She died on the spot. It was not until then that he realized he had spent too little time accompany Xiao Yin, but the little time that he did, Xiao Yin treated him so well, so so well.

He missed that simple time.

After Xiao Yin, there was no woman in this world who would tolerate him so quietly and without complaint anymore. Therefore, when he came across Cheng Qingchong, who looked like Xiao Yin, a very sick thought appeared in his mind.

He would mold Cheng Qingchong into Xiao Yin. Therefore, he had Cheng Qingchong move into the house Xiao Yin was staying in before she died, wear the brands Xiao Yin preferred, and using the perfume Xiao Yin liked.
