So what if she's a fake heiress? She's being pampered by a powerful figure in Beijing'

Yu Wei accepted the admission notice and refused Shen Changfeng's request to accompany her.

But the man, like a cunning snake, coiled around him.

Shen Changfeng was everywhere—during doctor consultations, when she was preparing her portfolio, and when she met with her mentor.

At first, Yu Wei was somewhat resistant, but gradually she discovered that she and Shen Changfeng had a lot in common.

Shen Huaishan couldn't understand her designs and was unwilling to let her meet with others, so he belittled her in every way.

She knew this was a problem stemming from Shen Huaishan's family background. Shen Huaishan's mother was a waitress, and she had drugged and forced him into being with Shen Anguo. When he was young, Shen Huaishan's mother saw him as her lifeline to marry into a wealthy family. Before he turned ten, she didn't let him go to school or make friends, and instead locked him in the attic.

Shen Huaishan's mother told him that she locked him up because she loved him.

Love is possession, Shen Huaishan told her, and he treated her that way.

The means by which you love and possess her are not important; the result is what matters most.

But Shen Changfeng said that love is freedom.

Yu Wei didn't want to know Shen Changfeng's intentions in following her; she only saw him as a background figure and went about her own business.

But gradually, she discovered that Shen Changfeng and Shen Huaishan were different.

Shen Changfeng understood her design and had a close personal relationship with her mentor. Her mentor told her that Shen Changfeng had been asking her to take good care of him behind her back.

Later, she went abroad.

Shen Changfeng followed beside her.

Shen Changfeng said he was going to inspect the Shen family's overseas branch, and it just so happened that he was on the same flight as her.

Yu Wei smiled slightly, her eyes crinkling, but she remained silent.

Over the past six months, her depression and anxiety have gradually improved. With the care of her mentor and the concern of Shen Changfeng, she has emerged from that abnormal relationship.

They fell in love while studying in Paris.

Yu Wei asked Shen Changfeng when he fell in love with her.

Shen Changfeng, however, smiled shyly, like a young man.

He said he fell in love with Yu Wei during her university years.

When he returned to China to visit his mentor, he saw Yu Wei's collection of works on his mentor's desk and borrowed it to take a look.

Yu Wei's design philosophy coincided with his own, and he was a unique figure both at home and abroad. He felt as if he had met an old friend in a foreign land and wanted to meet this person who resonated with his soul.

However, Yu Wei was with his younger brother at the time, and a gentleman does not take away what another loves, so he had no choice but to give up.

Later, he went abroad to help his family manage their overseas businesses. When he returned to China, he learned that Yu Wei and Shen Huaishan's relationship had ended tragically.

Shen Huaishan said he loved her, but he didn't care about her at all. He didn't even know she was sick. He just thought Yu Wei was ungrateful.

Shen Changfeng initially thought it was just a quarrel between the young couple, but he realized the seriousness of the matter after discovering Yu Wei's medical records.

The Shen family has strict family rules. After receiving the news, Shen Changfeng went straight back to the old house and told his father, Shen Anguo, everything that Shen Huaishan had done.

Shen Anguo, a man who had spent his life in the military, made only one mistake: having Shen Huaishan. As the saying goes, "A father is guilty of not teaching his son properly." That very night, Shen Huaishan was urgently summoned back to the old house.

Shen Changfeng naturally came to Yu Wei's side.

Later, Yu Wei finished her studies abroad and returned to China with Shen Changfeng.

The day in the port city was warm and sunny. Shen Changfeng led her to the deck, where fireworks burst on the river. In front of a group of classmates, friends, and teachers, Shen Changfeng knelt down on one knee in front of Yu Wei and proposed to her.

Unlike her solitary state three years ago, Yu smiled and agreed to his proposal, putting on the ring that symbolized love and family affection.

Later still, Shen Changfeng took her to the Shen family.

Shen Anguo felt guilty towards her, so he treated her extremely well and readily agreed to their marriage, even giving them his family heirloom.

Shen Huaishan stood behind Shen Anguo, his gaze dark and unfathomable.

Yu Wei, however, was not afraid of him. In front of the Shen family, she gently stroked her lower abdomen with a soft smile:

"Dad, Chang Feng and I already have a child."

Hearing this, Shen Anguo was overjoyed and immediately set a date for their wedding.

With a grand procession of red bridal makeup and an eight-person sedan chair, Shen Changfeng gave Yu Wei the best wedding ever.

However, about six months after the marriage, the Shen family's business ran into problems.

Shen Anguo has health problems and is recuperating in the hospital.

At that time, Yu Wei was still pregnant. Shen Changfeng did not want to put pressure on her, so he only said that there had been a small accident. After settling her in, he went abroad.

The night he left, Shen Huaishan went to her bed.

Yu Wei was panicked, but Shen Huaishan covered her mouth, his voice filled with malice:

"My sister-in-law probably doesn't know how dangerous things my brother is dealing with abroad."

“If you dare to shout, my mercenaries abroad can take Shen Changfeng’s life. I mean what I say.”

As he spoke, Shen Huaishan opened his phone, which displayed Shen Changfeng's hotel name and room number.

Shen Huaishan's voice was like a ghost:

"You should never have seen through me, this illegitimate child."

"Listen to me now, and I'll spare your life and the life of the baby in your belly."

This is just the beginning.

In just one month, the Shen family was thrown into chaos.

Shen Anguo suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was placed under house arrest in the hospital. Yu Wei gave birth prematurely and is now bedridden.

Shen Changfeng committed suicide, his younger brother died in a car accident, and his younger sister was accused of economic crimes with no return date in sight.

On the day she received news of Shen Changfeng's death, Yu Wei committed suicide by jumping off a building in front of Shen Huaishan.

To cover his tracks, Shen Huaishan claimed to the outside world that Yu Wei suffered from postpartum depression and the sudden loss of her father, which led to his suicide by cutting his wrists.

Unable to control his rebellious son Shen Huaishan, Shen Anguo, clinging to his last breath, sent Xie Junfei to the capital.

What a big show.

The amount of information was so overwhelming that Huo Shen fell silent.

His family was messy too, but not this dramatic, let alone the kind of story where brothers turn into love rivals.

Xie Junfei patted him on the shoulder:

"It's okay, that happened more than ten years ago."

"Aren't we doing well now?"

Huo Shen nodded silently.

The art salon was to begin the next day, so Xie Junfei and Huo Shen went home and prepared to go to bed.

But just as I lay down in bed, the sharp ringing of the phone rang.

Xie Junfei answered the phone impatiently:

"Who?"

Upon hearing what was said on the other end, her eyes widened and she abruptly stood up.

"What did you say? Shen Huaishan committed suicide?"

The lawyer on the other end of the phone nodded:

“Miss Xie, Mr. Shen’s will was drafted a month ago. He will bequeath all his property to you free of charge.”

"If you accept, please come to the Shen family tomorrow morning."
