"The company," Yun Shu stated with finality, "Take me to him, rest assured, as long as you do as I say, I’ll have Shenshen give you a sum of money that’ll let you live the rest of your life without financial worries." This was undoubtedly a huge temptation. Kang Jinse drove out of the garage, encountering reporters blocking the way at the entrance, yet this time she showed no mercy, zipping straight out, leaving the reporters to watch helplessly as the car disappeared at the end of the mountain road. Throughout the drive, Kang Jinse was internally debating whether to take Yun Shu to Yun Shen or to notify Ji Yunya. She weighed her options; both Yun Shen and Ji Yunya were the most fearsome people in her heart now. She had already decided to leave this place, yet just before doing so, she found herself entangled in these grudges again. Content originally comes from Novᴇl_Fire(.)net Su Ye’s eyes flickered with a secretive glimmer as she took out her phone, pretending to casually browse the news while actually sending a text message. Suddenly, Yun Shu grabbed Kang Jinse’s hair, her voice cold, "This isn’t the way to the company. What do you think you’re doing? Trying to tip off Ji Yunya?" Kang Jinse cried out in a sharp voice, "Let go first, you’re hurting me." Yun Shu scoffed, "I’m warning you, don’t try to play tricks on me, or even at the Edge of Heaven and Earth, I’ll have Shenshen kill you." Shocked at heart, Kang Jinse eventually turned the car around; this route was the quickest way to the Yun Group headquarters. The car stopped in front of the Yun Group building, Yun Shu burst out the door in a hurry and strode towards the lobby. Kang Jinse turned to look at Su Ye, warning, "Everything you just saw, it’s best you forget all about it." Su Ye hung her head, "I know." Kang Jinse spun the steering wheel, and the car sped away from the Yun Group. Finding a secluded spot by the roadside, Kang Jinse stopped the car and took out an envelope from her bag, handing it to Su Ye, "You’ve followed me for so many years, take this money and find a better opportunity for yourself." Su Ye looked at her in shock, "Sister Kang... you...." Kang Jinse stuffed the envelope into her hand, "I’m leaving Jiangzhou. I don’t know where I’ll go next. Su Ye, I really appreciate all your care over the years. Lastly, let me give you a hug." As she spoke, Kang Jinse gently hugged her. A flicker passed through Su Ye’s eyes, she pursed her lips, whispering softly, "I’m sorry...." "What did you say?" Kang Jinse, not having heard clearly, asked. "Sister Kang, take care of yourself in the future." As they parted ways, Kang Jinse said, "Before I leave, do one last thing for me, will you?" Su Ye lifted her gaze to look at her. "Take this car and sell it at the second-hand market, the proceeds to a charity under my name as a good deed, to build up some virtue for the next life." She laughed at herself mockingly, finding it ridiculous that someone like her would have such kindness. "Alright." Su Ye agreed. Kang Jinse got out of the car and took her luggage from the trunk, waving goodbye to Su Ye. Su Ye sat in the car, watching the woman outside. Approaching her forties, the woman’s beauty had faded, showing signs of age, yet she had good fundamentals. Kang Jinse had been beautiful, dubbed the "National Fairy" for her sultry figure and enchanting charm when she first debuted. She could have had a bright future but fell in love with a man, throwing herself at him like a moth to flame, and from that moment on, her career was doomed. Having followed Kang Jinse since her own graduation from university, Su Ye had witnessed her transformation from an ambitious rising star to the point where she had to flee the city in disgrace. Her feelings were indescribable. Initially grateful for the opportunity Kang Jinse had given her, Su Ye later watched her squander her potential and grew to despise her lack of fight. Over time, her feelings changed, and now, did she regret it? No, she didn’t. Such a woman needed to be jolted awake by harsh reality to come to her senses. Kang Jinse smiled at her. At that moment, Kang Jinse looked beautiful, resembling her younger self. She watched Kang Jinse turn away, then hail a taxi, placing her luggage in the trunk and leaving in the cab. After sitting quietly for a while, Su Ye took out her phone and made a call. The second time, still no answer. What was she busy with that she wouldn’t answer her phone at such a time? After pondering for a moment, she started the car, turned around and headed back to the Yun Group, parking across the street and gazing at the company building. Kang Jinse bought the earliest ticket to Jiangtian Village and while waiting for the bus, many people recognized her, pointing and saying things too unpleasant to hear, some even took photos of her with their mobile phones.
