Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He Yi obtained the rental from the past years from Chu Tianyi successfully and it would not have gone that smoothly if not for Wan Wan. Although the huge amount of 41 million bucks in her account was crucial to her plan of expanding her business in the future, she was racked with guilt for using Wan Wan.

Ji Xueshan drove for almost an hour when He Yi’s dejection finally dispersed. She calmed her emotions before instructing her, “We should head to Fu Xing Leather Factory as planned!”

The incident with Wan Wan was an unexpected interlude and their original plan was to go to Fu Xing Leather Factory for business.

He Yi was indeed regretful for not able to get Wan Wan’s custody for the time being. However, there was no other way to back off than her to be tough.

She had to get revenge for her father and regain her daughter!

She had to persevere without rest to gain the resources to do anything she wanted and defeat the powerful Chu family in Yun City.

　　*

Fu Xing Leather Factory was located in the southwest of Yun City with the size of around 40,000 square meters. It used to be one of the most famous leather factories in Yun City and it was owned by the He company.

The factory ceased operation five years ago when the He company winded up because the CEO, He Hanlin passed away from a heart attack. All properties under the He Company should be sold by auction by the courts to pay for debt but the factory was an exception as it was put under He Yi’s name as personal property. Similar to Guibin Hotel, Chu Tianyi rented it out during the time Hei Yi served her sentence in prison.

However, the tenant had been losing money over bad business and closed down within two years. The factory had been vacant ever since.

He Yi was overwhelmed with emotions as she stood in front of the rusty iron gate of the factory. She knew that her father loved her genuinely and he had been taking safety precautions like transferring properties with great potential to her despite the He family’s great influence at the time.

Therefore, the properties under her name were still hers and nothing changed despite that the He Industries went bankrupt, auctioned off and she was imprisoned.

The properties He Hanlin left for her included the Guibin Hotel, Fu Xing Leather Factory, and a gym.

He Yi came prepared and brought a locksmith.

The locksmith she hired pried open all the locks and installed new ones before handing He Yi a bunch of shiny new keys.

Looking at the keys in her hand and the abandoned factory, she knew that this would be her starting point to the business industry of Yun City and the most important stage in her life.

He Yi became busy in the next two days.

She worked with the agency company she used for hiring her bodyguard previously to hire professional management staff and mass factory workers for the leather factory.

He Yi was not familiar with manufacturing leather but she liked it because all the leather products that she used since young were produced from Fu Xing Leather Factory. The He family had a private formula of leather production that was not shared with the public, only an heir of the He family had the right to learn.

He Yi knew that this would not be a lost art although her father passed away because he once told her that the He family’s exclusive formula for leather production was kept in a bank safe under her name with the fees paid for 20 years. She could redeem the precious formula passed down by her ancestors anytime as long as she brought her identification.

Everything starts slow. He Yi knew that long ongoing war was coming and she should not be impatient.

As for now, she had something more important to tend to than work. She had to visit Wan Wan!

　　*

The Elitist Private Kindergarten.

Since classes were over, all sorts of imported luxury cars stopped near the school gate. It looked like a luxury car show.

All the students there were from wealthy families with great cars as the kindergarten’s fees were extremely high and a normal household would never be able to afford it.

Two women were seated in limited edition Bentley, it was Old Lady Yi and Fang Yaqin.

The more they looked at Wan Wan’s photo, the more shocked they became. Therefore, they followed the address of Wan Wan’s kindergarten as provided on He Yi’s information documents to see the girl.

Kids were walking out of the kindergarten compound with their little schoolbags under the teacher’s guidance to be picked up by their parents who were waiting outside.

Su Anqi was on her phone when she got off the car. She seemed to be agitated and her tone was filled with anger.

“I’m so mad! Tianyi refused to listen to me and gave He Yi all the rent for the past five years!… I know that the hotel is hers, but her father owed Tianyi a big sum and it’s not paid off yet. Aside from the rental, she should just give the hotel to Tianyi! I can’t believe that Tianyi did something that stupid just because that brat Wan Wan was crying and that wench provoked him!… Forget about his aunt! Why would the proud Queen Chu be bothered with such a matter? She left the moment she heard that Guibin Hotel is He Yi’s, she didn’t even bother when we offered to give it to her!… Image is most important for her and Tianyi, so He Yi took advantage of it! Mom, honestly, I’ve been depressed for days because of this!”

Su Anqi ignored everyone when the teacher sent Wan Wan and Ke Ke to her and continued complaining to the phone as she was too occupied.

Old Lady Yi who was sitting in the Bentley right beside Su Anqi stared at her for a moment and before turning to Fang Yaqin, “Is that Anqi, Liangze’s distant relative on the phone?”

Fang Yaqin could tell with just one look. “That’s her! She married Chu Tianyi and became his second wife. Her son is just a month younger than Wan Wan.”

Old Lady Yi frowned and scoffed with disdain, “Like mother like daughter!”

Wan Wan held Ke Ke and walked to Su Anqi. She chose not to disturb her stepmother and stood there silently when noticed that she was in a bad mood due to her agitated tone on the phone.

“Goodness! 40 million bucks just went into that wench He Yi’s pockets! Queen Chu is blaming me for not making things clear and tainted her image! Even Tianyi is blaming me for being nosy and he’s been ignoring me! I am not going to let this go easily!” Su Anqi continued complaining endlessly to her mother Su Yuzhi about her resentment toward Chu Tianyi and Chu Piaoyun, ignoring the two children despite noticing them there.

Wan Wan was unaffected because she was used to getting ignored. On the other hand, Ke Ke was unwilling and held Su Anqi’s legs to ask for a hug.

Su Anqi had to tend to Ke Ke whilst talking to the phone so Wan Wan was naturally neglected.

Then, Wan Wan saw someone waving at her from a distance.

She blinked her huge eyes in confusion before recognizing that it was He Yi. She became hesitant for a while, unsure of whether to go to her.

He Yi took out a pretty teddy bear and waved it to attract Wan Wan. Indeed, she ran over as expected.

“Aunt,” greeted Wan Wan timidly.

The smile on He Yi’s face froze and she wanted to correct her. However, she ended up not saying anything. She placed the new teddy bear into Wan Wan’s arms and asked her gently, “Do you like it?”

Wan Wan took the teddy bear and looked at it before answering, “I have many teddy bears!”

“This one is different, I gave it to you! I guessed that you’re going to like it as the one daddy gave you!” He Yi asked confidently, “Am I right?”

Wan Wan held the teddy bear and looked up to stare at He Yi’s fair, beautiful face. She mustered up her courage and asked in an extremely soft voice, “Are you my Mommy?”
