Zheng Jinfei is dead.

It is said that on that day, Zheng Jinfei was urgently sent back to the hospital for rescue. Her uncle and aunt were scolded by the doctor, she caught a cold, which led to a fever, causing her immune system to completely collapse, and she passed away in just a few hours.

On the day of Zheng Jinfei's funeral, my lawyer found me and said that my uncle and aunt requested a private settlement and offered me one hundred thousand yuan.

Ridiculous. One hundred thousand yuan.

Back then, the huge compensation I received had seven figures, and they actually thought they could settle with just one hundred thousand yuan.

"No settlement," I said coldly, "Let's follow the proper procedures."

Zheng Jinfei's funeral was not grand at all because my uncle and aunt were entangled in lawsuits, with no time or energy. Xu Wensen was also in a mess due to public opinion on the internet, and the company's stock plummeted.

After news of my lawsuit spread, public opinion took a big turn. I went from being seen as an ungrateful person to being the Cinderella bullied by my uncle and aunt. At the same time, I wrote a long article online, mentioning the whole story of Xu Wensen asking me to donate a kidney, to have his child, etc., causing my uncle and aunt and the Xu family to become pariahs overnight.

I didn't attend Zheng Jinfei's funeral, but on that day, I ran into Xu Wensen outside the new coffee shop I rented.

He grabbed my arm, lowered his voice and said, "Lin Xinlin, you are ruthless enough.

"After so many years of friendship, did you really not care at all?" He looked disheveled, with dark circles almost touching the ground, and his face was scruffy, clearly having not taken care of himself for a long time. "Did you really... ever love me?"

In the moonlight, I saw a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.

But I had no more expectations.

I shook off his hand and said, "It's all in the past."

Yes, it's all in the past.

My brand new life has just begun, why would I look back?
