It was also from this day onwards that the useless daughter of the Lin Family disappeared. Although she was publicly recognized as trash, the Lin Family still spent a lot of energy and manpower to look for her. However, no one was able to find her.

After Lin Wanli went missing, the mother and daughter of the Ye Family were already favored by Old Madam Lin. Now that Lin Wanli had vacated her position, Old Madam Lin treated Ye Zhenzhen even more like her own granddaughter. After all, the mother and daughter of the Ye Family had been dealing with the Old Madam for many years and had spoiled Lin Wanli into a complete waste. How could she be worth the Old Madam’s attention when she was someone of no value to the Lin Family?

Because Mr. Lin was a live-in son-in-law, Old Madam Lin was still in charge of the Lin Family. His love for Lin Wanli was very limited. When Lin Wanli was around, he still had to act as a loving father. Once Lin Wanli disappeared, he could just ignore her. Besides, Ye Zhenzhen despite being his illegitimate daughter, was smart and capable. She had always been his right-hand man when he seized the Lin Family.

Therefore, in the huge Lin Family, only Mother Lin still thought of her daughter. No matter how bad Lin Wanli was, she was still her only daughter. As a mother, she could not turn a blind eye to her daughter’s disappearance.

Therefore, she searched everywhere for her daughter. She did not listen to advice and was unwilling to accept this fact. This search lasted for two years. It was only when the police had issued a death certificate that Mother Lin painfully acknowledged Lin Wanli’s departure.

“Xueyi, tomorrow is Ah Li’s funeral. I know you don’t want to face it, so you should rest at home.” Mr. Lin comforted his wife at home.

Mother Lin’s expression was sorrowful and she could not say a word.

Lin Wanli’s disappearance made it seem as if she was the only person in the world who was grieving. Whether it was Mr. Lin, Ye Zhenzhen, Ye Zhenzhen, or Zhou Tingyang, they seemed to have quickly resumed their lives. Not only that, Old Madam Lin even asked Mother Lin to prepare for another child, as if Lin Wanli had never existed…

“Huaijing, why don’t we search again? Hmm?” Lin Xueyi tugged at Mr. Lin’s sleeve and begged, “I really can’t bear it.”

Mr. Lin hugged his wife lovingly and comforted her, “Xueyi, we should also look forward. Wanli has already left. Besides, I’m the only one who loves you the most in this world. Listen to me and forget the past, okay? I will never leave you.”

Mother Lin cried bitterly, but she still listened to her husband’s arrangements.

As for Ye Zhenzhen, she only wanted Lin Wanli’s reputation to be completely ruined. However, she did not expect Lin Wanli to disappear completely. Thinking of this, her path with Zhou Tingyang was one step closer. She had promised Zhou Tingyang that she would help him deal with Old Madam Lin and help the Zhou Group get through this crisis. Just like that, the two of them became addicted to having an affair under the Old Madam’s nose.

…

It was still midsummer, and the scorching sun in Jinchuan in the morning burned one’s heart.

Outside Qingyuan Cemetery, Mr. Lin was attending Lin Wanli’s funeral with the haggard Mother Lin. Ye Zhenzhen, her mother, and Zhou Tingyang were all dressed in black and looked solemn.

The media reporters rushed over when they heard the news. Everyone rushed to hand the microphone to Mr. Lin. “Mr. Qin, has the matter of Lin Wanli’s disappearance been settled?”

“Mr. Qin, has Lin Wanli really passed away? ”

Father Lin could not stand the harassment, but he could only respond directly with a sorrowful expression. “My whole family has been looking for Ah Li for two years, but there has been no news of my poor daughter. I wish so much that she could return safely. I wish so much that I could hear Ah Li call me father again. I really miss her so much, I…”

Father Lin choked several times as if he had lost his daughter and the whole world.

However, all of his friends and family came to enlighten him. “My condolences, the dead cannot be brought back to life.”

“If my Ah Li can come back, I will do whatever it takes!”

At this moment, the media at the bottom of the stairs were moved to tears by Father Lin’s loss of his beloved daughter. On the opposite side of the street, a black car was parked by the roadside.

The woman in the driver’s seat seemed to have been watching the show. Finally, she put on her sunglasses, pushed open the car door, and pushed through the crowd to walk in front of the reporters.

However, no one noticed her until… She said to the man who was crying, “Daddy, I miss you too.”
