Qu Linyuan thought he had won, killed Huo Tingzhou, and also sought revenge on Huo Tingzhou's woman.
But he soon discovered that even in death, he had not surpassed Huo Tingzhou.
In matters of the heart, he had not bested Huo Tingzhou; Yun Kai's thoughts were still occupied with Huo Tingzhou until her dying breath.
Even in business, he had not outdone Huo Tingzhou; Huo Tingzhou had calculated everything before his death.
As Qu Linyuan dealt with Zhou Baoling and Xu Jianan, troubles of his own came knocking. The people Huo Tingzhou left behind were not to be trifled with, and Qu Linyuan's company faced an unprecedented crisis.
But this time, Qu Linyuan no longer cared.
The Qu Family, his business empire—he cared for none of it anymore.
All he wanted was for Yun Kai to be alive again. If only Yun Kai could come back to life, he'd willingly give up everything.
The words "come back to life" suddenly made Qu Linyuan think of the Divine Wood Pendant.
