'You need to understand my reasons. I did not give you any share of Qin corporations only because it is hollow from the inside. I don't want to bind you with a company which is on its edge, ready to bankrupt with one wrong move of Qin Yihong.

I know you wanted to inherit it, knowing it was once my and your mother's company but trust me, the Qin corporation of today is not what we built. The company built by us ended with the death of your mother. You will be wasting your time by inheriting it.

Second, I left the beach house for you because you love them. I know by doing this, I made you a target of TongTong but I am sure, you can handle her.

Third, the main reason for your anger, I know you hate me for adding the marriage clause. But you need to understand my reasons. You are twenty-six, suffering all alone. I want you to search for a life partner to settle down with.

I am sure, with time ticking in your head, to get my properties, you will search with true heart and will find your true man. I will also pray to God about the same.'

Qin Yanze wrote some more emotional quotes for Zhou Liying before ending the letter. With care, she placed back the letter in the envelope and looked at the sky. A sigh left her lips.

"Grandpa, it's not easy for me to find a man. From where the hell am I going to find a loving husband with whom I need to stay for three years?" she slumped her shoulders, trying to reason out the thinking of her grandpa.

'Sweetie, why are you worrying? Here I am, your soon-to-be husband.' Mu Yuehan thought to himself with a crooked grin.

Zhou Liying was working in her office when Zhang Lei arrived to meet her. He was first stopped at the reception before, at the command of Zhou Liying, he was allowed to enter her office.

"Miss, good evening." Assistant Zhang smiled at her.

"Is it really good?" Zhou Liying spat with revulsion. "Were you aware of that clause?"

"I was." He looked down with guilt. "Missus Qin met him. She taunted him about you and marriage, Boss was scared and that's why he added this clause. He also saw a good dream that you'd find a man in within a month of his death. So, he added this clause."

"A dream and he added this clause." Zhou Liying murmured and rolled her eyes. She shook her head. "What is your reason for coming here?"

"I am here to provide you with my service." Zhou Liying leaned on her chair and looked at him. "I know I no longer need to work after owning the café. But I am here to ensure you that, if ever you need my service, you can remember me. I will come to serve you at your one call."

Zhou Liying felt impressed with his loyalty. "Thank you, uncle Zhang. I also have a proposal for you, if ever you need some financial help regarding the café, you can always approach me. I will help you without any hitch."

"I know." He smiled and bowed to her. "I also want to give you this document. It has a copy of the will and also the photos of the properties which you will own in future."

Zhou Liying gave a stiff nod to assistant Zhang and sent him off.

Without opening the document, she placed it in her office bag and she was again busy doing her office work.

When Mu Yuehan returned to his apartment, he was quite in a happy mood. His brain was running in all directions as to how to utilise the next thirty days to marry her, not only that, to make her accept their marriage, to tell her his true identity.

He knew, that telling her that he was Mu Yuehan was going to be a tough task and then pursuing her after that was going to be tougher but he was all ready this time.

He was lost in his thoughts when he received a call from Zhan Wei, "Hey buddy." He answered the call in a cheerful mood.

"Here I am dying of heartbreak and there you are, all cheerful. You are acting like a traitor." He heard the gloomy voice of Zhan Wei from the other side of the phone. "Come to our usual bar right now. I am waiting for you."

Mu Yuehan looked at the blank screen of his phone. He sighed and decided to visit their usual bar. He knew Zhan Wei did not invite him to drink without any reason.

Also, he wanted to be there for his friend in his sad time because Zhan Wei stood beside him for the last four years.

He called Li Tao and asked him to pick him up. He also ordered him to bring some clothes suitable for the bar with him.

**

After thirty minutes, all changed into expensive clothes, Mu Yuehan arrived at their usual bar, one of the most expensive bars in the city. Knowing his way to their private room, he made his way toward it.

"What happened, buddy?" Mu Yuehan asked with concern when he saw bottle after bottle placed on the table. Zhan Wei was leaning against the sofa, already looking drunk.

p

"You are here, finally. Come and join me." Zhan Wei patted the empty seat beside his and served a drink for him.

Puzzled, Mu Yuehan looked at his friend and then at his brother, Mu TianYu with a raised brow.

"I don't know. He is like this from the time I arrived. He asked me to share his pain." Mu TianYu replied with a shrug and took a sip from his whiskey glass.

"What happened? Why are you drinking like this?" Mu Yuehan placed his hand on the shoulder of Zhan Wei.

"Are you my friend or an enemy?" Zhan Wei fumed angrily and roughly removed the hand of Mu Yuehan from his shoulder.

Mu Yuehan raised his brows, looking at the condition and action of his friend.
