In the dark night, the speeding sports car crushed the rain on the way to the hospital.

The person in the driver's seat was steering with one hand and holding a cell phone with the other.

After the second call still indicated that the phone was turned off, he frowned, threw the phone aside, and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

After a while, the phone that was thrown aside suddenly rang.

Ling Che immediately picked it up, glanced at the caller and answered it.

"what's up?"

"Mr. Ling."

This time it was Qi Shui who called. He said, "The hospital just called and said Chairman Qiao has passed away."

Ling Che held the phone, frowned and closed his eyes.

It's still a step too late.

"What about the young lady?"

Qi Shui said, "The young lady is still in the hospital and hasn't come out yet."

After hearing this, Ling Che immediately hung up the phone, turned the steering wheel and drove quickly to the hospital.

......

Hospital corridor.

The second page of letter paper appeared before my eyes.

[Back then, Zhuang Ce and Ling Xiu De contacted me privately and offered me a cooperation.

I went as they agreed, initially assuming they were there as the general manager of Huarui, a subsidiary of LS Group, and the vice president of LS Group, to discuss a potential partnership. Later, I learned they had a major collaboration planned: they wanted to recruit me.

Zhuang Ce even assured me that as long as I cooperated with them, the Qiao Group would remain prosperous for decades to come.

I have selfish motives. Over the years, I have devoted myself to the company's business and only want to develop Qiao Group better and better. So when faced with their invitation, I hesitated. I was selfishly inclined to join them.

But before I made up my mind to cooperate with them, Ling Zhengqing, the chairman of Ling Group and Ling Che's father, proposed a marriage to our Qiao Group.

After weighing the pros and cons, I opted for a marriage alliance and declined Zhuang Ce and Ling Xiu De's invitations. Seeing that I wouldn't cooperate with them, Zhuang Ce sent me a photo of me talking with them that day. I knew he was using it to remind me that, regardless of whether I actually participated in their collaboration, I couldn't escape my connection to them.

So I just kept my mouth shut and pretended it never happened.

Until... Ling Che's father died in an accident. I knew that the accident might have something to do with them, but I could only pretend I knew nothing.

Once the two's evil deeds were exposed, it would mean that the photo would be made public. At that time, a simple photo would cause a huge storm of blood and blood, and could also decide the life or death of the Qiao Group at any time.

The existence of this photo also means that they can control me and the entire Qiao Group at any time. And Dad has been controlled by this photo that cannot be seen by anyone for so many years.

Yi'er, Dad was a coward in this matter, turning a blind eye to it for his own selfish desires. Every time I think about it now, I feel overwhelmed with resentment and guilt. I feel deeply sorry for the Ling Group, and even more so for Ling Che.

It was not until Zhuang Ce and Ling Xiu De were both imprisoned that Dad was able to dig up this matter that had been buried deep in his heart for many years and find an opportunity to tell you.

Yi'er, I know that when you find out about this, you will hate me immensely. But perhaps by this time, Dad is no longer around, and he has left forever with his own regrets.

I thought I might see your mother after I die and apologize to her in person. But then I decided not to. She was so kind, she should have gone to heaven, while I, having done so many wrong things, am destined for hell. Even if I could see her, I wouldn't have the face to call her Rufang anymore.

Yi'er, the Qiao family will depend on you three siblings from now on. Xile is withdrawn and afraid of people, so don't give up on him. Take good care of him. Ruyuan may be spoiled, willful, and a little ignorant, but she's still your sister after all. Since Daddy's gone, don't treat her badly. Daddy's relieved that you already have most of the shares in the Qiao Group. I'll give the rest to Ruyuan. Don't mind her; she doesn't know anything and isn't as capable as you. Consider this a guarantee for her future.

As for your Aunt Liling, it’s up to you whether you can tolerate her or not. Dad will agree with you.

Yier, Dad is really not feeling well. I am very tired after writing this. I don’t even have the strength to lift the pen.

My dear daughter, walk well and boldly in the days ahead. Dad knows that you can overcome every difficulty with strength.

You are smart and sensible, and your future days will surely be bright, peaceful and happy.

Dad wishes you and Ling Che to love each other and grow old together.

Goodbye, my daughter.]

The sudden welling of tears blurred my vision, and the tears accumulated in my eyes fell like broken strings, hitting the letter paper one by one, almost dripping through it.

Qiao Ruyi held the letter paper in her hand weakly, tears streaming down her face.

A photo suddenly fell out of the envelope and slid to the ground.

Qiao Ruyi looked over with tears in her eyes. The moment she saw the photo clearly, she could no longer hold back and buried her face in her palms and burst into tears.

That photo was the one Zhuang Ce left for her!

She didn't expect that Zhuang Ce used a photo to trick all of them!

Qiao He is not Ling Che's father's murderer!

Then what is this belated fatherly love!

Qiao Ruyi felt a sharp pain in her heart, a piercing pain that made it hard for her to breathe, a pain that even breathing was tearing at her heart.

She turned to look at the empty ward, feeling unbearable pain.

Why! Why wait until he's dead to tell her this!

Qiao He, why on earth?

......

There were lightning and thunder outside and heavy rain was pouring down.

Heavy rain hit the car, and the wipers swung left and right rapidly.

The sports car sped through the rain all the way to the hospital. Before it reached the door, the headlights shone on a figure not far ahead. Ling Che braked suddenly, slammed the door and got out of the car.

That thin figure stood quietly by the roadside in the dark night with heavy rain.

The heavy rain hit her mercilessly, soaking her from head to toe. Her shaky figure looked like a discarded doll.

"Qiao Ruyi!"

Ling Che ran over with an umbrella and saw the dazed look in her eyes when she raised her head.

The raindrops hit her pale face, and she looked sad, like a broken porcelain doll.

Ling Che held the umbrella in his hand over her head, clasped it in his arms with one hand, and scolded, "What are you doing!"

He was cold and soaking wet, and even when I held him in my arms he was shaking slightly.

Qiao Ruyi let him hold her, still holding the handwritten letter in her hand.

However, after the letter was soaked by rain, the handwriting became blurred and could no longer be recognized.

“Ling Che…”

Ling Che heard a subtle voice ringing in his ear.

It is very light and small, and there is a deep sadness in the loneliness.

"I have no family anymore..."

None left.

Even if I want to hate someone, I don’t know who to hate.

Ling Che felt as if someone had shot him in the heart, causing him to feel a sharp pain.

He held the person in his arms tighter and whispered in her ear, "Qiao Ruyi, you still have me."

Qiao Ruyi was held in his arms, her eyes blank, not knowing whether it was tears or rain on her face.

She just felt cold, tired and very weak.

Suddenly, the person in his arms lost all strength and fell down. Ling Che dropped the loose bag in his hands and took over her body that was almost falling down, with panic in his eyes.

"Qiao Ruyi!"
