She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

He had his bodyguards block Lin Qingran and the others from entering, refusing to let them in.

"Miss Jiang, this is Mr. Fu's arrangement, and I have no way to disobey it." The bodyguard looked at Lin Qingran with some difficulty.

"We're just here to work, Miss Jiang, please don't make things difficult for us, okay?"

Lin Qingran had already prepared herself for the possibility that Old Master Fu did not intend to see her, so she was not surprised.

She took a deep breath and stared intently at the bodyguard.

"Go tell Old Master Fu that Bo Ye has already met with Fu Liancheng. If he still wants to prevent the power of the Fu Group from flowing out, let me in."

Upon hearing this, the bodyguard's face clearly showed surprise. He dared not delay any longer and hurriedly went inside to find Old Master Fu.

As expected, Old Master Fu let them in.

However, when they met, Old Master Fu still looked reluctant and displeased as he looked at Lin Qingran.

“Fu Liancheng and I are father and son. This is a private matter between the two of us. What does it have to do with you? Since you have already divorced Xiu Heng, you are no longer a member of the Fu family. Logically speaking, you haven’t cared about Xingze for the past two years, so why bother interfering? If it were for Lingdang’s future, it wouldn’t be necessary to go to such lengths. She’s just a little girl. Even if you wanted her to return to the family, we would never agree.”

Lin Qingran's brows furrowed with anger, and she retorted sharply to Old Master Fu.

"What's wrong with a girl? Does that mean a girl isn't Fu Xiuheng's biological child from his previous life? I'm a woman too, but I also built Shenghai Group from scratch. Fu's former wife also single-handedly put you in the position of power. Can you deny all these contributions with just a few words?"

Old Master Fu was also angry, but when facing Lin Qingran, he still maintained a superior attitude.

“You’ve gone to all this trouble to get in here, so let’s get down to business. Don’t beat around the bush with me.”

Lin Qingran laughed, "Isn't it you, Grandpa, who's more concerned about our meeting with Fu Liancheng? Otherwise, why would you let me in?"

Old Master Fu frowned impatiently and waved his hand dismissively.

"Speak quickly, stop talking nonsense."

It was clear that Old Master Fu was also extremely annoyed, not because Lin Qingran's words were wrong, but because the young man's words were all on point, which made Old Master Fu feel offended.

Lin Qingran cleared her throat and said.

"As for what Fu Liancheng said and did when they met, let's leave that aside for now. What I'd like to ask you, sir, is about Li Qing?"

Grandpa Fu immediately showed a look of astonishment, then his expression changed drastically, and he roared.

"You went to see Li Qing? Are you crazy?"

You can tell from Grandpa Fu's reaction that he cares a lot about Li Qing.

Lin Qingran turned her head and gave Bo Shicheng a look.

Bo Shicheng immediately spoke up, "Grandpa, when we went to see Fu Xiuheng, I secretly installed a surveillance device in Fu Liancheng's car. The location showed that Fu Xiuheng is currently in a manor in the suburbs of Qing'an City. I'm sure Grandpa Fu is familiar with this manor, isn't he?"

Before he could even say which manor it was, Old Master Fu was already stunned. He stared at Bo Shicheng in disbelief, unable to utter a word for a long time.

At that moment, Lin Qingran's phone received a text message from Wen Qingyu.

Lin Qingran glanced at it briefly, a strange smile appearing on his lips. Then he handed the phone to Old Master Fu.

After reading it quickly, Old Master Fu swayed violently and then collapsed onto the sofa.

He muttered to himself, "How could this be... how could this happen..."

Bo Ye curiously leaned over and glanced at the contents of Lin Qingran's phone.

Then, he let out a mocking laugh.

"Two men fighting over one woman. Who would have thought that the seemingly upright Old Master Fu had done such romantic things when he was young?"

What Wen Qingyu unearthed was nothing more than the story of how Old Master Fu and his college classmate pursued his first love when they were young, and how they eventually used some underhanded methods to win her over.

Lin Qingran looked quietly at Old Master Fu and spoke.

"Since we've already come this far, I suppose the old man doesn't need me to continue investigating. If you have anything to say, please say it now, so as not to waste time and effort later and cause greater impact on Xiu Heng and the Fu Group."

Grandpa Fu was completely stunned. Lin Qingran was not in a hurry and just waited quietly for Grandpa Fu. He was sure that Grandpa Fu would be able to reveal some key information today.

After a long while, Old Master Fu finally spoke, but his voice was barely audible.

"Back then... I was stupid back then..."

Back then, Mr. Fu was still a naive and somewhat stubborn young man. At first, his attention to his first love was merely superficial.

Similarly, there are many other people who are also paying attention to that girl.

Because most of the students in the school came from wealthy and noble families, only that girl, with her exceptionally good grades, overcame all obstacles and was specially admitted to this elite institution of higher learning.

That's why she stands out like a unique white flower amidst a sea of ​​blossoms, naturally attracting everyone's attention.

The girl was naturally aloof; some said she was like a lonely star in the cold night, isolated from the world. Yet her beautiful appearance was like the warm spring sun, making people want to get closer.

At that time, she had quite a few admirers, and many people would eagerly surround her every day.

Perhaps influenced by the enthusiastic atmosphere around him, Grandpa Fu also seemed to fall into a strange herd mentality and began to focus more attention on this special girl.

By chance, they were assigned to the same group to work on a project and were also to team up to participate in a competition.

As Grandpa Fu spent more time with the girl, he gradually came to understand her character and unknowingly developed genuine feelings for her.

At the same time, another formidable rival was also eyeing him—his college classmate who later stepped in to help his first love.

The man was a passionate person; as soon as he fell for the girl, he launched an extremely ardent pursuit.

He would send flowers and gifts, and frequently shower the girl with attention, making no attempt to hide his affection.

As for the fact that Old Master Fu also liked this girl, he showed extreme disdain and even sneered.
