The novel’s Lin Yiyi had a talented mother . Back then, Lin Ping had gotten rich through the seafood industry . She had practically taken over the entire seafood business in their city .

When they had first met, Gu Chenyi though that although this woman was beautiful, she had a wild horse’s spirit and no trace of femininity .

Alright, let’s stop the gossiping here . Lin Yiyi returned to her sense and quickly spoke to save her stepfather from disaster . “Mom, I didn’t try to kill myself . If I had done that, wouldn’t you be talking to a ghost, right now?”
Her daughter’s words immediately cut off Lin Ping’s long-winded yaking .
Speaking of this, she had been so busy earning money that she didn’t spend much time raising her daughter . By the time she realized her error, her daughter was already past the age when she would listen to her mother’s advice .
When Yiyi had fallen in love with Meng Yan, she had been against their relationship in her heart . However, seeing how happy her daughter looked, she was incapable of intervening .
Sometimes, there were many decisions and paths that could only be made and walked by yourself . Parents could only served as guides . They couldn’t take their children’s place in life’s unavoidable course of events .
