After traveling through time, I relied on rich people’s gossip to reach the top of my life.

At this point in the story, the old lady of the Zhou family, Lin Yuanyuan, choked up several times, and she seemed to be back in a helpless situation again.Lovers disappear, relatives turn against each other, and the promised future will never come back.

And another childhood sweetheart who grew up together accepted the test of being the heir of the family and went abroad to develop his career long before Zhou Zhi was kidnapped for the first time.When Zhou Zhi was kidnapped for the first time, he was worried and mobilized his connections to help rescue him, but in the end he couldn't make it back to suffer with them.

After Zhou Zhi was rescued, Mr. Jing came back to see him. He often called Zhou Zhi because he was worried about Zhou Zhi's condition.But in that state, Zhou Zhi could still exchange a few words with Lin Yuanyuan in front of him.Across the phone line, even though it was my playmate and elder brother whom I had trusted since childhood, I didn't know what to say.In other words, just because the other person is someone he trusts, he can let himself be silent.

Mr. Jing understood, but he was not a very patient person. In addition, the heir test was a bit tricky. Gradually, he had less contact with Zhou Zhi.But every time we contacted each other, the tacit understanding between the two parties remained the same.

When Zhou Zhi was kidnapped for the second time, it was the moment of acceptance for Mr. Jing's successor.No one from the Jing family, the Lin family, or the Zhou family took the initiative to tell him about Zhou Zhi.

By the time he finally passed the heir test, Zhou Zhi had been missing for a long time, and the mastermind behind his kidnapping had been arrested.All he could do was comfort her, but he also had his own family to protect and his own career to fight for, so his concern for Lin Yuanyuan was very limited.

Later, when the Lin family and the Zhou family went to court over Zhou Zhi's inheritance, he or the Jing family, as mutual friends of both parties, could not get involved, whether out of favor or profit, and could only be bystanders.Moreover, Lin Yuanyuan became a little paranoid and crazy after Zhou Zhi disappeared.

After the kidnapper confessed, Lin Yuanyuan hired several groups of people to assist the police in finding the kidnapper.Professional search and rescue teams, mercenaries, trained bodyguards, etc., everything Lin Yuanyuan could think of was brought in, but to no avail, Zhou Zhi's whereabouts could not be found, not even the broken body was found. .

Still unable to find anyone, the police withdrew a large number of people, leaving only a few "enthusiastic" people and people hired by Lin Yuanyuan to continue searching.But Zhou Zhi seemed to have disappeared from the world and could not be found anywhere.

Gradually, the number of "enthusiastic people" from the police became less and less. In the end, they only occasionally contacted Lin Yuanyuan's people by phone.Those who were hired by Lin Yuanyuan had been looking for them seriously with high bounties, but they couldn't find them no matter how hard they looked, so they were inevitably slacking off.

The employees are slacking off, but the boss can't take the money with peace of mind, and he doesn't want his employees to think that money is so easy to earn. After all, it is a job that licks blood on the tip of a knife. If you slack off a little bit at work, you may be in danger.Therefore, after private discussions, several bosses came to Lin Yuanyuan and canceled the cooperation between the two parties.Lin Yuanyuan also knew that she was a bit pushy, so in the end her reason overcame her sensibility and she canceled the cooperation.

After that, there was no large-scale search for people, and I only occasionally hired a group of professionals to spend several months looking for people.After that, Zhou's father took out Zhou Zhi's "suicide note" and took Lin Yuanyuan to court, asking the judge to rule Zhou Zhi dead in order to seize Zhou Zhi's inheritance.

For a time, Lin Yuanyuan could be said to have betrayed her relatives.Her tough heart allowed her to remain calm on the surface, but she inevitably felt tired in private.At this moment, Lin Yuanyuan "accidentally" met Bo Xingzhou, a man who claimed to be a "Feng Shui master".

No one knew where Bo Xingzhou came from or what kind of experience he had. It was as if one day suddenly there was a figure like Bo Xingzhou in Jiangcheng's upper class circle.He is an upstart in the shopping mall. The company he founded has innovative projects with unlimited potential for future development.Whether it is the younger generation of peers or the veterans who hang out in shopping malls, they all praise him.

It's not like no one has investigated his background, but every time there is loud thunder but little rain. There seems to be some force in the dark that prevents everyone from digging into Bo Xingzhou's past.Therefore, everyone assumes that there must be a "master" behind Bo Xingzhou, someone who cannot afford to offend.People who appreciate him appreciate him even more, people who once looked down on him have awe of him, and passers-by who have not interacted with him have no ill feelings towards him.

Lin Yuanyuan and Bo Xingzhou met at a charity auction organized by the government.They took a fancy to a lot at the same time and staged a slightly "romantic" "battle" - both parties went back and forth and raised the price several times. When one bid almost reached the highest price Lin Yuanyuan was willing to pay, , Bo Xingzhou gave up the bidding, picked up the wine glass, and toasted Lin Yuanyuan with a glass of wine from a distance, smiling, that kind of gentlemanly smile.

Lin Yuanyuan was not fascinated by him, but everyone around her had a good impression of Bo Xingzhou. They felt that he had a gentlemanly demeanor, a measured approach and a gentle smile, which could hit the girl's heart.

Lin Yuanyuan: "..." So the reason I'm not moved is because I'm not a girl?
At that time, Lin Yuanyuan was not in the mood to listen to or chat about gossip. She made such a complaint in her heart and forgot about the matter.I just didn't expect that Bo Xingzhou came over to me at the reception after the auction and said, "I know the general location of the person you are looking for."

Lin Yuanyuan initially thought he was a liar or an accomplice of the kidnapper.But because of such a little bit of luck, she was rarely patient enough to be prepared to listen to a stranger's long speech.But Bo Xingzhou only said one sentence next, "I am a Feng Shui master and can tell fortunes." After that, he handed the business card to Lin Yuanyuan, turned around and went to chat with others.

Lin Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, and then she went back to chatting and socializing with people as if nothing happened.It wasn't until she got home that Lin Yuanyuan recalled everything that happened today.People always say that people are most easily deceived when they are in desperate situations.

Lin Yuanyuan claimed to be not an irrational person, but she was unwilling to give up the chance to find Zhou Zhi, even if there was only a small chance.She felt that she didn't believe Bo Xingzhou's lies, she just wanted such an opportunity.So she found someone to investigate Bo Xingzhou.

The result was naturally the same as the previous ones, with no gain.However, given the premise that Bo Xingzhou calls himself a "feng shui master", Lin Yuanyuan is dubious about the "master" behind Bo Xingzhou. In other words, she prefers to believe that what hinders everyone from investigating Bo Xingzhou is "metaphysics", such as barriers and blindfolds.

Lin Yuanyuan, who thought she had the truth, personally contacted Bo Xingzhou and asked how she could figure out Zhou Zhi's specific location and what price she would have to pay.Bo Xingzhou's answer was very "extraordinary". He said, "The secret of heaven must not be leaked."

Lin Yuanyuan was so angry that she almost scolded her father on the spot, and then Bo Xingzhou's next words brought her back to reality, "However, if those close to her pray fervently, maybe one day she will receive a revelation from God."

If this were said to men and women, it would probably be, "I don't know if I like you or not, but if you are always nice to me, maybe one day my heart will fall in love?" This is a proper scumbag man/scumbag woman statement.

But at this moment, Lin Yuanyuan had no time to think too much. She only knew that "sincerity leads to spiritual success."As for how to calculate sincerity, isn't it Bo Xingzhou who has the final say?

Therefore, from that day on, Lin Yuanyuan and Bo Xingzhou had frequent contacts. She often gave Bo Xingzhou gifts, ranging from cufflinks and brooches to clients and project capital injections.In her opinion, she was expressing her sincerity, hoping that one day "God" would give her clues to Zhou Zhi's whereabouts.But in the eyes of outsiders, it was Lin Yuanyuan who fell in love with Bo Xingzhou and pursued him passionately.

Regarding her daughter's "ridiculous behavior", Father Lin and Mother Lin tried to persuade her, but it was useless, so they let her go. After all, the daughter earned her own money and lived her own life. As a parent, it is enough to give her love and respect.Mr. Jing also tried to persuade him, but Lin Yuanyuan gave him a rational and well-founded analysis, and Mr. Jing was stunned for a moment, as if he was wrong.In the end, I don't know if I convinced Mr. Jing or not. Anyway, Mr. Jing stopped asking about Bo Xingzhou's affairs after that, and his relationship with Lin Yuanyuan no longer had the closeness of childhood.

Naturally, the Zhou family also came to make trouble, and raised reasonable doubts that Lin Yuanyuan deliberately designed Zhou Zhi to be kidnapped and disappeared just for such a "little pretty face", and was not qualified to take over Zhou Zhi's inheritance.

Lin Yuanyuan was too lazy to argue with them and directly called the security guards to chase them away.Although the Zhou family didn't have any more trouble after that, when they went to court, the other party's lawyer kept asking questions about Lin Yuanyuan's relationship with Bo Xingzhou, whether she had betrayed Zhou Zhi, etc.

Lin Yuanyuan had never done anything wrong, so she argued with reason. You can imagine what happened after that. The two sides started to argue with each other, which was very lively.A good court hearing has become like a wet market.

The abnormal relationship between Lin Yuanyuan and Bo Xingzhou lasted for several years. During this period, Bo Xingzhou also revealed "God's will" to Lin Yuanyuan several times. For example, Zhou Zhi was in a very dark place, unable to see his fingers, surrounded by water, and he had nowhere to escape. .For example, Zhou Zhi's aura is in the southeast direction.After listening to Bo Xingzhou's "nonsense", Lin Yuanyuan actually looked for someone at the place he instructed, but naturally found nothing.Bo Xingzhou's explanation was that the place was hidden in darkness and would not be found for a while.

Lin Yuanyuan really believed it, and she felt that she was not sincere enough, so she continued to give gifts to Bo Xingzhou.

Until Lin Yuanyuan was found to have early-stage breast cancer during a physical examination.At that time, the property dispute between Lin Yuanyuan and Zhou's father had come to an end. Lin Yuanyuan was the legal heir to Zhou Zhi's estate, and their company was in the hands of Lin Yuanyuan alone.

Due to the hard work in the early years, the company is prospering.Even though Lin Yuanyuan has been relatively "prodigal" in recent years, the company's development is still unstoppable.According to Lin Yuanyuan's plan, the company's listing plan will be proposed in a few months.I already had preparation experience last time, and this time it will only be faster.

But she got cancer, although it was early-stage breast cancer with a five-year survival rate of over 90%.Treatment was definitely needed, but she almost had a brush with death. Lin Yuanyuan felt the fragility of life for the first time.At the same time, I began to reflect on the past few years. Have I lived like a human being?

Once people become suspicious, many details that were not taken into consideration in the past will spring up like mushrooms after rain.Zhou's family's attitude toward him, the police's different stories about the kidnapper, Bo Xingzhou's "nonsense" and his overt and covert demands for money suddenly became subtle.And because I was obsessed with taking control of the company, those nights of working overtime became a blur.

Everything seems to have become meaningless.

On the day she received the cancer confirmation report, Lin Yuanyuan locked herself in her room and thought for a day and night, and finally came to the conclusion that she would retire early and go abroad to find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters to recuperate.

Lin Yuanyuan is a person who will do whatever comes to mind. This kind of character is daring and bold, which also allows their company to continue to grow even after Zhou Zhi is gone.This time she decided to retire, and she started arranging the company's affairs without saying a word.

The listing is still going to happen, but the person organizing the listing will not be her, but the capable people she selected.From now on, she can just be an honorary boss and live her life with dividends every year.As for Bo Xingzhou, it was natural to make a clean break.

After waking up, Lin Yuanyuan's thinking was very clear. Bo Xingzhou was a liar. What he said about Feng Shui masters and God's will were all lies.Only the paranoid and devilish me would believe it and be deceived by him.

Because of the intersection between the two of them in the past, it really seemed like she fell in love with Bo Xingzhou at first sight and then began a passionate pursuit. The chat records also showed that the gifts Lin Yuanyuan gave out were all of her own free will. It was almost impossible to sue him for fraud.But Lin Yuanyuan was really unwilling to let him go just like that.

Therefore, while Lin Yuanyuan withdrew capital from Bo Xingzhou's companies and projects, she also found "experts" to investigate Bo Xingzhou's details.With the decisive decision to burn the boat, Lin Yuanyuan really found out the clues this time.

Bo Xingzhou does have "master" protection behind him.But it was not out of the "master's" volition, but under coercion.

The "master"'s son and Bo Xingzhou were college classmates, and their relationship could only be considered average.After all, one of them is an illegitimate son from a wealthy family (yes, Bo Xingzhou is an illegitimate son, but their family is not in Jiangcheng, so no one knows), so it is really difficult for them to get together.

But Bo Xingzhou saw the young master go exploring in the forest with his girlfriend and accidentally caused his girlfriend to fall off a cliff.The young master, who had grown up well-fed and pampered by his family, was so frightened that he even forgot to call the police. He just sat slumped on the edge of the cliff and murmured, "It's not me, it's not me."

Bo Xingzhou, who looked glamorous on the outside but was dirty on the inside, came up with an idea in a moment. He pretended not to notice that the young master’s girlfriend fell off the cliff, and coaxed the young master to follow him back to the hotel. He coaxed the young master to think of himself as a life-saver. straw.Then he went to the young master's father, the "master", and told him that he had witnessed the accident between the young master and his girlfriend.

Originally, even if the young master had to bear limited responsibility for accidents and unexpected things, according to the character of an "elegant" person, the young master must bear the responsibility himself.

But with a "witness" like Bo Xingzhou, things became troublesome. He could definitely say that the two were arguing at the time and that the girlfriend was pushed away by the young master.Or to be more cruel, say that the young master committed murder deliberately.

No matter which way you say it, it will destroy the young master, the "master", and the "master"'s family.He can selfishly gamble on his son's innocence with his career, but he cannot drag his family into trouble.

So the "master" compromised and accepted Bo Xingzhou's threat.Asked his son to go to the police station to report that his girlfriend was missing.Yes, it was reported as missing rather than accidentally falling off a cliff.This is also one of Bo Xingzhou's conditions. He who threatens people must have some leverage in his hands.

Later, out of guilt, the "master" personally took his son to his girlfriend's house and apologized to his girlfriend's parents, saying that it was his son's fault for not protecting his girlfriend that caused her accident.

I also broke down the incident and the reasons why I chose this way and told it to the young master.The young master has matured a lot since then, which is a blessing in disguise.

Another condition for Bo Xingzhou is the protection given by "masters".He didn't dare to ask for too much. After all, no matter how "advanced" someone defended his shortcomings, he still had his own principles and bottom line, so he didn't want much.

Here comes Mr. Bo, who suddenly rises to power in Jiangcheng, and Bo Xingzhou, who has no trace of his past.

This matter was so secret that no one else would know about it. The reason why Lin Yuanyuan was able to find out was entirely because the person she was looking for this time was a "deviant", and her investigative methods were often on the verge of breaking the law.

He directly obtained the evidence that Bo Xingzhou threatened the "master".

And this also became a bargaining chip for Lin Yuanyuan to negotiate with the "master".Of course, she didn't want to threaten the "master", she just wanted to tell him that she would send Bo Xingzhou to prison, and then he would no longer be a threat.

What the "expert" needs to do is to "lose contact" for a period of time when he is implementing the plan, so that Bo Xingzhou cannot ask for help from outside.
