His eyes shimmered with a vicious light as he coldly said, “You all wait for me, I definitely won’t let you off.”
The next day, when Lin Yi and Lin Yongqiang went to the civil affairs bureau to process the divorce, they were denied.
Lin Yi was furious. He pulled out his ID card and household registration, “I am Lin Yi, the son of the chairman of Lin Corporation. Don’t I even qualify for a divorce?”
An employee at the civil affairs bureau spoke, “We have already checked, and you indeed do not meet the conditions for divorce.”
Lin Yi angrily questioned, “What do you mean by this? It was my mother who told you to say this, wasn’t it?”
Lin Yi’s parents were both rural villagers with no formal education, not wealthy, yet they managed to send Lin Yi to school and also had another younger son.
One could say Lin Yi’s childhood was fairly poor.
If not for them, he might have starved to death on the streets long ago.
To such ordinary people, the most valued thing was the continuation of bloodline, and, more so, they believed that a son was an investment. They placed all their hopes on Lin Yi, wishing for him to stand out.
Hence, no matter what decision Lin Yi made, his parents would always stand behind him, supporting him.
It was precisely because his parents’ support that Lin Yi was able to successfully gain admission to the best university in the capital and then stayed in the capital. He took over the Lin family’s business, which he expanded rapidly, turning it into one of Hua Country’s leading enterprises.
Over the years, his parents constantly reminded him, “Yi Yi, our family’s future relies on you. You must work hard to achieve the heights our Lin ancestors reached, so that our family can climb to the peak.”
“Yi Yi, you are the pride of our Lin family. You must press on.”
Lin Yi’s parents kept encouraging him.
But all of this was not what he wanted, a fact Lin Yi understood better than anyone else.
The Lin family was nothing but nouveau riche. If not for capitalizing on his name, they could never have joined the ranks of the wealthy nor have reached their current status.
Gu Jingran had no relation to their family, and his grandparents were also void of any sentimental feeling.
Lin Yi grew up under his grandparents’ care and knew exactly their nature.
Yet, he still chose to honor them.
He even once thought that, in the future, even if he were to marry and have children, he would not mistreat them; instead, he would give them a lot of money.

But their greed exceeded his expectations. They conspired with outsiders to deceive him, plotting to take over his company and even causing the death of his son.
Lin Yi felt a chill in his heart.
Lin Yi sat on the couch, his hands clenched tight, fingernails digging into his flesh.
He closed his eyes, struggling to suppress the sorrow within him.
At that moment, his mobile phone began to ring, a string of unfamiliar numbers lighting up the screen.
Lin Yi hesitated for a moment before pressing the answer button.
As soon as the call connected, a gentle female voice came through, “Hello, Lin Yi, it’s me.”
“Xiao Mei? What do you want?” Lin Yi asked.
Li Xiao Mei spoke up, “Lin Yi, I called you yesterday. Why didn’t you answer?”
“Oh, I was busy yesterday, didn’t hear it,” Lin Yi replied.
Li Xiao Mei sighed, “Alas, after you left yesterday, Gu Jingran dumped me. Now he has found a new love. Lin Yi, please persuade him to come back and remarry me. We are about to have our wedding soon.”
Lin Yi’s hand clenched suddenly, his lips whitening slightly, but he bit back his anger.
He said indifferently, “Xiao Mei, is he marrying you again? Congratulations.”
Li Xiao Mei spoke, “Lin Yi, stop messing around, come and find him, I beg you.”
Lin Yi was silent for a moment, “Xiao Mei, you and Gu Jingran are both divorced, why are you still clinging to him?”
Li Xiao Mei started to cry with a sense of grievance, “Lin Yi, do you despise me now? Do you no longer want to be with me? In what ways do I not measure up to you, wuu wuu…”
Lin Yi listened to the sound of crying coming from the other end of the phone, frowning, “Xiao Mei, don’t cry, okay? Whatever it is, we can talk it over slowly.”
“Lin Yi, do you despise me for being poor? After we divorce, I will leave with nothing. I’ll transfer all my shares to your account. After we split, I don’t need your support; I can take care of myself. But, I want to take the child.”
Listening to Li Xiao Mei’s assertive tone, Lin Yi sneered, “Xiao Mei, that child isn’t mine.”
“What are you talking about? How could the child not be yours?”
Lin Yi said coldly, “The child is my sister’s.”
Li Xiao Mei was completely stunned on the other end of the phone, and after a long pause, she muttered, “Lin Yi, this joke isn’t funny at all.”
“The child is clearly Gu Jingran’s. How can you lie?”
“Xiao Mei, are you insulting me? Do you think I, Lin Yi, am a fool? Whether or not the child is Gu Jingran’s, he is a grandson of the Lin Family. You despise me for being poor, huh? Fine, I’ll give you three million, and you return the child to me.”
Lin Yi said calmly.
“You… Are you really willing to spend three million to buy this child?” Li Xiao Mei asked excitedly.
Lin Yi scoffed, “Heh, do you think I lack three million? The existence of this child is a disgrace. I wish he would disappear immediately.”
“Lin Yi, I promise you, as long as you’re willing to pay three million, I will send the child away,” Li Xiao Mei’s tone became much lighter.
Lin Yi snorted coldly, “Li Xiao Mei, do you think I’ll believe you just like that? Three million? You wish.”
“I’m telling you, Li Xiao Mei, if I don’t give you money, you’ll never even think of holding on to the Lin Family’s grandson.”
“Don’t forget, the Lin Family is under my father’s control, and although my father might be old, do you really think his authority is something you can shake?”
Li Xiao Mei became frantic, “Lin Yi, how can you force me like this? How can you bully me like this? Does your conscience not hurt? Aren’t you afraid of retribution from the heavens?”
Lin Yi ridiculed unapologetically, “Retribution from the heavens? As long as I, Lin Yi, am alive, that day will never come.”
Li Xiao Mei cursed furiously over the phone, “Lin Yi, I never thought you could be such a despicable person. Do you think I have no other options if you don’t give me the money?”
“Just you wait and see.”
After saying this, Li Xiao Mei hung up the phone fiercely.
Lin Yi looked at the disconnected call, a cold expression appearing on his face.
If Li Xiao Mei dared to play her hand, then he wouldn’t hesitate to oust her from the company and replace her with an obedient secretary.
After putting down the phone, Li Xiao Mei was in a frenzy, almost like she was possessed.
She was not willing to accept this; after going through so much hardship to finally marry Lin Yi, she absolutely couldn’t let Lin Yi ruin her happy marriage.
Li Xiao Mei took a deep breath and dialed Gu Jingran’s number, “Jing Ran, let’s get married, let’s get our marriage certificate right away, I don’t want to wait any longer, I love you.”
Gu Jingran sounded very impatient, “Li Xiao Mei, I am already married, we’ve registered, I won’t marry you again. I am going to find my wife.”
After saying that, Gu Jingran hung up the phone.
