Two years later.
Xu Qing looked at the three babies playing with their friends in the amusement park and smiled gently. However, there was a hint of loneliness in her smile. It had been two years. She had her own business empire and was powerful enough to protect herself. Where was Qiao Yanhui? Did he still remember Xu Qing from Anning Village?
In the past two years, Xu Qing had experienced countless lonely nights. Every time she woke up, she hoped that the warm embrace would still be there, but in reality, what greeted her was only coldness.
In the past two years, the people around Xu Qing had changed a lot.
Lei Wangshu realized how cold-blooded and ruthless the methods of the Yin family were and had already divorced Yin Shaoqing. The Yin family didn’t agree. Xu Qing used Bei Shu’s identity to help Lei Wangshu leave the Yin family.
From then on, Lei Wangshu returned to being a high-spirited career woman and swore to make the Yin family pay the price. Lei Wangshu’s heart had been broken and she saw Yin Shaoqing’s true colors clearly!
Xu Qing gave Lei Wangshu an opportunity. Therefore, Xu Qing’s wine industry was booming in the capital because of the addition of Lei Wangshu and Lei Yanning.
As a result, Mr. Bei Shu became more and more famous. Many factions were trying to find out Mr. Bei Shu’s identity, but unfortunately, no one knew Mr. Bei Shu’s true identity!
Also, Xu Qing had successfully established a children’s amusement park where children under the age of seven could come to play. Of course, it was safe. After all, the strength and prestige of the Dark Night Army were higher than in the past.
There was also one thing that couldn’t be denied. During the development of her faction, assassinations, threats, and even schemes against Xu Qing had been endless. However, she had survived them all!
The most serious time was when there was a threat concerning the royal family. This was the most difficult. They had relied on the power of the Lei family, the influence of the Honglu School, and Mr. Bei Shu’s medical skills to survive.
In the past two years, Qiao Yanhui seemed to have disappeared! There were a few times when Xu Qing almost died. At that time, she felt indignant and unwilling to do. At the very least, she had to wait for Qiao Yanhui’s explanation! Even if he said, “I don’t love you anymore!” And she couldn’t bear to let the children become orphans… So she gritted her teeth and survived until this day!
The current Nine Lakes Town had also changed greatly. It was so prosperous that one couldn’t tell that this was a border town. Most of the town was basically under Xu Qing’s sphere of influence.
Xu Qing kept a low profile and didn’t bully others, so the people in the capital tolerated her. Of course, they weren’t too willing to let a businessman threaten the royal family. However, Xu Qing was no longer the little village girl from back then.
“Mother!” The children’s soft voices pulled Xu Qing back to reality.
Xu Qing looked down at the three cute children in front of her and felt a sense of warmth in her heart. These three children were really becoming more and more like Qiao Yanhui, especially the eldest son, Xu Yuandeng. With his serious expression, he was simply a miniature version of Qiao Yanhui. However, every time she thought of this, Xu Qing would feel bitter. How much did she miss Qiao Yanhui that she actually associated the three of them with him? She didn’t even remember who the children’s father was! Xu Qing had never checked because she didn’t want to investigate this past.
“Mother, I want to eat cake.” Xu Hanxue pouted and wheedled beside her mother. The little girl was as cute as a Barbie doll. When she wheedled, no one would bear to reject her! Moreover, Xu Hanxue was now the family’s favorite.
“Be good, let’s go back and eat Auntie’s birthday cake!” Xu Qing pinched Han Xue’s chubby face and said gently.
“Okay!” Xu Hanxue jumped up excitedly.
The two brothers looked at their sister affectionately.
As Xu Qing led the three children home, she couldn’t help but look in the direction of the capital. Even though she couldn’t see him, she knew that Qiao Yanhui was there!
Anning Village had also changed a lot. It was getting richer and richer and brick houses had been built. This wasn’t entirely because Xu Qing was buying herbs. Most young people lacked opportunities. Now, they had the opportunity, and they were all very smart. They went to town to make special snacks or be tour guides…
After all, Nine Lakes Town was a tourist destination that many noble families wanted to visit.
When Xu Qing returned to the village, kind faces could be seen everywhere. They were grateful to Xu Qing. If it weren’t for Xu Qing’s help in getting Mr. Bei Shu to buy herbs from their village, Anning Village probably wouldn’t be so rich, nor would every child be able to study out of town.
It was easy for the young people in Anning Village to get married now. After all, the village was rich, so the villagers had confidence in everything they did.
