The next day, Yan Haikun and Yin Shulan were going to return to Fengcheng. But before leaving, Yan Haikun specifically took Yin Shulan to the detention center to "visit" Qi Silei.
In front of Qi Silei, Yan Haikun put one arm around Yin Shulan and the other on her lower abdomen. He said to Qi Silei, "We're here today to share some good news with you."
"Lan is pregnant with my child. She's already 8 weeks along. Sure enough, the infertile one is you. Tell me, is the child in the woman you had an affair with yours?"
After saying this in a cocky way, seeing Qi Silei raging helplessly across and being restrained by the police, Yan Haikun left triumphantly with Yin Shulan.
Moreover, Yan Haikun took Yin Shulan to the busiest shopping mall in Jincheng. They picked out a lot of baby products. His hand always supported Yin Shulan's lower back, and he would occasionally shield her abdomen.
Within half a day, the news that Yin Shulan was pregnant spread throughout the upper - class circle in Jincheng.
Along with it were the gossips about whether Qi Silei was capable. The Qi family became the biggest joke in Jincheng.
After they returned to Fengcheng, when the Yan and Huang families learned that Yan Haikun had remarried and that the woman was pregnant, both families were in an uproar.
Although his two sons said nothing, they refused to call Yin Shulan "mother" and moved out of the Yan family's old mansion to live on their own.
The elders of the Yan family rebuked Yan Haikun for remarrying without consulting them. They had originally arranged for him to marry the daughter of another prominent family in Fengcheng and had negotiated the details of the cooperation. They were just waiting for a year to pass after Huang Cen's death to finalize the marriage.
Who would have thought that Yan Haikun had quietly got the marriage certificate! Moreover, the woman he married was a divorcee! Although the Yin family was also a prominent family in Jincheng, how could it be compared with those in Fengcheng?
The Huang family broke off relations with the Yan family directly. They scolded Yan Haikun for being cold - hearted. Less than a year after Huang Cen's death, he had a new love. All his past affection had become a joke.
However, Yan Haikun's attitude was extremely tough. The reason he gave to the Yan and Huang families was the same as what he had told Yin Shulan.
— He needed this child to inherit the Yan Corporation.
Despite this, their union was still not well - received in Fengcheng.
The elders of the Yan family were cold to Yin Shulan and unwelcoming. Yan Haikun's two sons ignored her. Even on other occasions, many people were waiting to see her make a fool of herself. Yin Shulan's situation was as difficult as her mother had expected.
Yan Haikun was also having a hard time.
Although he was the person in power of the Yan Corporation, the Huang family held a portion of the company's shares. To retaliate against Yan Haikun for remarrying, the Huang family sold their shares at a low price, which caused the stock price of the Yan Corporation to drop sharply in the market. The Yan Corporation suffered heavy losses because of this, and this further intensified the elders' dissatisfaction with Yin Shulan.
Yan Haikun had anticipated such a result. To protect Yin Shulan, he had been extremely cold to her since they returned to Fengcheng. They hardly communicated except for necessary matters.
It seemed as if he had married her only for the child in her belly, not because he loved her.
Even Yin Shulan thought so.
She focused on nurturing the child in her belly. She took a lot of prenatal education classes every day and never did anything that was bad for the child. She just hoped that the child could come into the world safely and healthily.
After ten months of pregnancy, before the due date, she was admitted to the best maternity hospital in Fengcheng, waiting for the birth of the child.
On that day, only the maid at home and Yan Haikun's mother accompanied her.
After six hours of hard work, Yin Shulan successfully gave birth to a baby boy. For the first time since Yin Shulan married into the Yan family, a smile finally appeared on Yan Haikun's mother's face.
On the day Yin Shulan gave birth, Yan Haikun happened to be on a business trip abroad and couldn't come back. But when he learned from his assistant that both mother and child were safe, the stone in his heart finally dropped, and he was happy about the result.
This was their child! He wondered who the child would resemble more.
After dealing with his urgent matters, Yan Haikun rushed back nervously from abroad. But when he returned to Fengcheng and entered the ward, he saw his mother getting angry at Yin Shulan.
"After waiting for so long, the child born is a little blind boy. How can such a child inherit our Yan Corporation? Yin Shulan, be sensible and sign this divorce agreement. Give up your position as Mrs. Yan so that we can arrange a better woman for Haikun."
Yin Shulan was holding the crying baby, and all the color drained from her face.
The child was born with eye problems. The hospital said that it was a disease caused by an extremely rare gene, and there was currently no cure in the world. If it couldn't be cured, the patient would have to live in darkness forever.
Yan Haikun was extremely angry. He stepped forward and tore up the divorce agreement in his mother's hand. He rebuked his mother and for the first time strongly defended Yin Shulan.
However, within a few days, the news that Yin Shulan had given birth to a child with eye problems spread throughout the upper - class circle in Fengcheng.
The Huang family was the happiest. They claimed that this was the best retribution for Yan Haikun's betrayal of his and Huang Cen's love.
After returning home, Yin Shulan felt even greater pressure.
But to her surprise, although the child had eye problems, he was extremely smart. At only three months old, he could understand the emotions of the speaker and react accordingly.
He could distinguish his father, mother, and other relatives by smell, and his learning ability was extremely strong. At six months old, he called out "Mom" and "Dad" for the first time.
When the child was four years old, he was playing in Yan Haikun's study. Just by listening to Yan Haikun's video conversation with others, he found the loopholes in the conversation and gave a hint to Yan Haikun.
Yan Haikun was extremely surprised. This was a child with a talent for business!
This discovery gave them hope again. Yin Shulan took the child to various countries in search of a cure for Alström syndrome.
When Yan Yincheng was five years old, she took him to Texas, A Country, and found the ophthalmologist Tang Qian.
Although they still couldn't find a cure, Tang Qian discovered that Yan Yincheng's five senses were more sensitive than ordinary people's, and he had a very powerful brain. His IQ had reached 175.
Tang Qian took Yan Yincheng as his godson and taught him how to better develop and use his senses. Under his guidance, Yan Yincheng became more and more outstanding.
At the age of seven, Yan Yincheng improved a perfume formula of the Yan Corporation by relying on his senses.
After the formula was changed, the product was immediately popular among consumers. It became a hit in the market and was sold out all over the country. Even if they rushed to produce more, it was not enough.
The name "Yan Yincheng" was mentioned for the first time at the shareholders' meeting of the Yan Corporation. Yan Haikun could hardly contain his excitement. He clenched his fists and said,
"This child will become the 'living formula' of our Yan Corporation. With him, the Yan Corporation will surely grow bigger and become a world - famous enterprise."
Since then, Yan Yincheng has become the secret weapon of the Yan Corporation. When the market was still studying the products of the Yan Corporation and trying to make high - imitation products for profit, the Yan Corporation launched a brand - new formula.
The constantly updated perfume formulas completely consolidated the Yan Corporation's position in the industry. It became an irreplaceable domestic brand.
When the Yan Corporation started to expand its business in the technology field, the products launched by the Yan Technology Company were more stable in structure, more advanced in system, and more durable compared with those of its peers.
All their models were designed by the same person, Yan Yincheng.
Although Yan Yincheng couldn't see, he proved with his strength that the Yan Corporation needed him. He had become an irreplaceable role in the Yan Corporation.
Finally, Yan Haikun could openly hold Yin Shulan's hand and take her to various banquets. He would say proudly,
"This is my wife, Yin Shulan."
He could also introduce at the shareholders' meeting, "The second - largest shareholder of the Yan Corporation is my son, Yan Yincheng."
"Yan" is from Yan Haikun, "Yin" is from Yin Shulan, and "Cheng" means clear.
He hoped that one day, his son with Yin Shulan could regain his sight and see the wonderful world with his clear eyes.
As for whether he loved Yin Shulan?
Yes, he did.
He loved Huang Cen and also loved Yin Shulan.
The former accompanied him through his adolescence. Her love had made him who he was, allowing him to meet Yin Shulan at the best time and in the best state.
As the monk said, everything in the world has its own fate.
To have a good ending with Yin Shulan, to see his youngest son regain his sight, get married, have children, and have a large and happy family during his lifetime, he had no regrets in this life.
