Han Xi's gaze towards Lin Yan was noticed by Liang Minghao.
He already knew this person was the male protagonist. He had known he would be present when he confirmed the guest list.
The male protagonist was the center of this world. To make way for him, his own family had suffered such pain.
Liang Minghao looked down upon the male protagonist before him and simultaneously resented his existence. If not for him…
His fingers dug deep into his palm, yet his face maintained a gentle smile.
The appearance of Liang Minghao shocked many who were familiar with the Lin family's affairs. What was even more shocking was that Father Lin intended to return the position of power within the Lin family to him.
Previously, Liang Minghao had been in charge because Lin Yan had no interest in business, but in recent years, her capabilities had been proven.
To hand over her own authority, even if the person was her future husband, few could bear to do so.
It was unknown what kind of enchantment Mr. Liang had used on the Lin family to make them value him so highly.
They also did not believe Miss Lin would willingly give up the power in her hands. Hearts were fickle. With Father Lin suppressing things now, once Father Lin passed away, or could no longer suppress the other party, Miss Lin's life would likely become difficult.
They were all waiting to witness the changes to come within the Lin family.
Han Xi was also worried about Miss Lin. Although this was his first time meeting her, she had already occupied a place in his heart. He couldn't bear to see her suffer.
However, after the banquet, he would never have the chance to see Miss Lin again.
They did not witness the downfall of the Lin family. Instead, they watched as he invested in new projects, ones that were either not favored by others or required a long time to develop.
Everyone thought that those few years of dormancy had caused the former "rising star of the business world" to completely fall, which was incredibly lamentable.
But time told them they had worried unnecessarily.
The rapid development and rise of these industries proved his foresight was as sharp as before his dormancy. Compared to Miss Lin, Mr. Liang's sharpness was even more pronounced.
Furthermore, for some reason, the government consistently protected Lin Group, even commending Lin Group multiple times as a conscientious enterprise. This allowed the Lin family's business empire to expand rapidly.
It was not until rumors emerged that the source of the remarkably effective gene optimization fluid was the eldest daughter of the Lin family that people finally understood. However, by that time, Miss Lin had already become reclusive, making her impossible to reach.
Nonetheless, internal sources working at Lin Group headquarters revealed that Miss Lin frequently commuted to and from work with Mr. Liang, and their relationship was exceptionally good.
They often saw Mr. Liang giving Miss Lin gifts and flowers, with different surprises every day, filling the entire Lin Group headquarters with the sweet scent of romance.
The wedding day of Lin Yan and Liang Minghao did not invite many guests. It was not a grand, once-in-a-lifetime event, but rather one filled with warmth at every turn.
Lin Yan and Liang Minghao savored such a wedding. A wedding was a beautiful memory for two people, and they did not wish to spend it attending to unimportant guests.
On this day, all the official social media accounts of Lin Group launched a giveaway, and all the physical products under Lin's banner were announced to be discounted for three days.
"So many things I use are actually from Lin's!"
"Does anyone know how much wealth the Lin family possesses?"
"Is there still anyone who doesn't know the Lin family's ranking on the rich list!"
"Miss Lin is truly beautiful!"
"What right does that person surnamed Liang have!"
"He's very accomplished, you know. [Image] [Image]"
Suddenly, the internet was abuzz with discussions about the newlyweds.
Han Xi also stared at the various messages on his phone. He didn't know why he was looking at this, especially since he kept focusing on information about Liang Minghao.
The netizens were incredibly resourceful; they had dug up all of Liang Minghao's information, detailing all the awards he had won in various competitions.
This was a completely different person from him. How could such a person not inspire jealousy! Especially since he also possessed such a devoted lover!
Han Xi wished he could find some trouble for Liang Minghao, at least to prevent him from living such a good life. However, before he could do anything to harm him, he received a warning.
Afterward, his business was continuously met with difficulties from all sides. Various inspections and constant hindrances made Han Xi dare not make any further moves.
Although he remained unwilling, he dared not do anything else, only suppressing his discontent deep within his heart.
This carnival surrounding their marriage also caught the attention of others.
"Cut! Let's take a break." As the director spoke, everyone's taut nerves relaxed.
The actress on camera walked to the side to rest under an umbrella, picked up her phone from the table, and opened her social media app, only to see the overwhelming news.
She was stunned for a moment, then continued reading the content.
She was getting married. A person like this could always thrive, no matter the world. Her life was too different from hers; someone like herself could not possibly touch her life.
Thinking of the invitation for that evening, she felt a desire to refuse. The ending in her dream had already told her that this path was a dead end. She had to find another way out for herself.
Having made up her mind, she began to consider how to decline all future engagements. Currently, her abilities were not sufficient to directly say no, so she would have to proceed slowly.
But no matter what, this time she wanted to rely on her own efforts to change her destiny.
Married life was not much different for Lin Yan. After all, she was still the same person, and they had spent countless years together in other worlds.
Even though they were an old married couple, they still cherished this life of companionship.
Liang Minghao had unbound himself from his system. Apart from work, he devoted all his time to being by Lin Yan's side.
Lin Yan had also told him that she would continue to take on missions, but this time she would return directly at the end of the plot, rather than waiting to die of old age.
After all, there was no one there to tie her down, while in the real world, someone was waiting for her.
In the top-floor office of Lin Group's headquarters, Liang Minghao was handling some documents while Lin Yan read a book nearby.
"Host, long time no see. Congratulations on your wedding!"
"It has been a long time." Lin Yan put down the book in her hands.
The moment she put down the book, Liang Minghao's gaze shifted to her.
Lin Yan smiled at him, and he then continued looking at his documents.
"Since you're back, let's start taking missions!"
"Host, aren't you going to wait a little longer?" Didn't our host just finish her honeymoon? Doesn't she want to spend more time being intimate with Mr. Liang?
"No need. Anyway, coming back means returning to the original time. I'll come back right after the mission last night to get off work with Minghao."
"Alright!" It always found its host's thoughts incomprehensible.
"Minghao, the system is back. I'm going to do a mission," Lin Yan said casually, as if she were just going to get a glass of water.
"Then have fun!" Liang Minghao knew it was also boring for her to accompany him all the time. Since Lin Yan had a good relationship with the main god, she wouldn't be in danger, so he let her go and have some fun.
"Okay," Lin Yan replied.
"Mission commencing, Host, a new journey, please guide me!"
