But he is not afraid, because he has light in his heart, which is the persistent pursuit of dreams and infinite expectations for the future. He will continue to pursue the light in the urban workplace and write his own glorious chapter.

The Tragedy of the Rich: The Entanglement of Love and Pain

Lin Xiao, a girl of ordinary origin but with an artistic dream, has a beautiful face and her eyes always flash with vision and enthusiasm for the future. With her own efforts, she studied in a well-known art school and worked part-time in a cafe in her spare time to support her living expenses. By chance, Lin Xiao met Lu Yichen in a cafe. Lu Yichen, the heir of the Lu Group, is a rich and noble man with a handsome appearance and a cold and extraordinary temperament. He was dressed in a custom-made suit, and his every move showed the style of a rich man. That day, he walked into the cafe to avoid business socializing. Lin Xiao came forward to serve as usual, and accidentally knocked over the coffee, which spilled on Lu Yichen's expensive suit. Lin Xiao panicked and apologized repeatedly, but Lu Yichen was attracted by her sincere eyes in panic. "It's okay, you didn't mean it." Lu Yichen's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. Lin Xiao raised her head and met his deep eyes, and an inexplicable throbbing surged in her heart. After that, Lu Yichen often visited the coffee shop just to chat with Lin Xiao. Gradually, the two became familiar with each other, and the seeds of love took root and sprouted inadvertently. On a moonlit night, Lu Yichen plucked up the courage to confess to Lin Xiao, and Lin Xiao happily agreed. During the days of love, Lu Yichen took Lin Xiao around to play and see the beautiful scenery of the city. He took her to high-end restaurants to taste delicious food and gave her exquisite gifts, making Lin Xiao feel sweetness and happiness she had never experienced before. Lin Xiao also shared her love for art with Lu Yichen. The two visited art exhibitions together, discussed artistic creation, and their feelings became deeper. However, the good times did not last long. Lu Yichen's mother, Ye Wanrong, the head of the Lu Group, was furious when she learned that her son was in love with an ordinary girl. In her eyes, Lin Xiao was of humble origin and far from the Lu family's family background, and was not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Lu family. Ye Wanrong sent someone to investigate Lin Xiao's background, and then asked Lin Xiao to meet at the Lu family villa. Lin Xiao came to the Lu family with a trepidation. The luxurious decoration in the villa made her feel extremely depressed. Ye Wanrong sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at Lin Xiao with cold eyes, "Are you Lin Xiao? I hope you can leave my son. You and he are not from the same world at all." Lin Xiao's heart tightened, and he said firmly: "Auntie, I love Yichen, we are in love with each other." Ye Wanrong sneered, "Love? In a wealthy family, love is worthless. If you follow Yichen, it will only drag down his career. I can give you a sum of money, leave him, it will be good for you and him." Lin Xiao's eyes were red, "I don't want money, I just want Yichen." Ye Wanrong's face sank, "Don't refuse a toast, if you don't leave, I have plenty of ways to ruin your reputation." Lin Xiao left the Lu family in despair. She didn't know how to face Lu Yichen. After returning home, she cried all day and was in great pain. When Lu Yichen found that Lin Xiao suddenly lost contact, he was anxious and looked for her whereabouts everywhere. He called and sent messages to Lin Xiao, but never got a response. Just as Lu Yichen was running around looking for Lin Xiao, Ye Wanrong arranged a blind date for him, with Su Yao, who was also from a wealthy family. Su Yao was sweet-looking, gentle, and her family also had a pivotal position in the business world. Ye Wanrong hoped that the two could form a business marriage to consolidate the power of the Lu family. Lu Yichen was very resistant to blind dates, but Ye Wanrong forced him with the family business, and he fell into a dilemma. Lin Xiao struggled in pain for a long time and decided to let go for Lu Yichen's future. She sent a message to Lu Yichen: "Yichen, let's break up, I'm tired, we are not suitable." After seeing the message, Lu Yichen immediately ran to Lin Xiao's residence, but found that she had moved out, leaving only an empty room. Lu Yichen searched for Lin Xiao like crazy, but to no avail. Under the pressure of Ye Wanrong, Lu Yichen reluctantly started dating Su Yao. However, he always had only Lin Xiao in his heart, and he was just perfunctory towards Su Yao. Su Yao noticed that Lu Yichen's heart was not on her, but she also loved Lu Yichen deeply and chose to endure it silently. After Lin Xiao left Lu Yichen, her life fell into trouble. She repeatedly hit a wall in her artistic creation, and lost her part-time job because of her mental trance. To make matters worse, Ye Wanrong secretly made trouble, causing some galleries to refuse to display Lin Xiao's works, and her artistic dream seemed out of reach. Lin Xiao struggled to get by in despair, often crying alone late at night. By chance, Lin Xiao met Lu Yichen and Su Yao on the street. The moment Lu Yichen saw Lin Xiao, a hint of surprise and pain flashed in his eyes. Lin Xiao resisted the sadness in his heart and greeted them calmly. Su Yao noticed the unusual atmosphere between the two, and felt a little uneasy in her heart. After returning home, Lu Yichen's longing for Lin Xiao became stronger. He decided to go to Lin Xiao and regain their relationship despite his mother's opposition. However, when he found Lin Xiao, he discovered that she had fallen ill in the rental house due to long-term stress and poverty. Lu Yichen was distressed and sent Lin Xiao to the hospital for careful care. Ye Wanrong was furious when she learned that Lu Yichen had found Lin Xiao. She came to the hospital and saw Lu Yichen guarding Lin Xiao's bedside. She said angrily: "Yichen, how long are you going to be stubborn? Look at her, she is a burden to you." Lu Yichen stood up angrily, "Mom, I love her, I won't leave her again." Ye Wanrong said coldly: "If you are still with her, don't think about inheriting the Lu Group, I will drive you out of the Lu family." Lu Yichen fell into a painful choice, on one side is the beloved Lin Xiao, on the other side is the responsibility of the family. Lin Xiao heard their conversation on the hospital bed and was extremely sad. She didn't want Lu Yichen to lose his family because of her, so in the middle of the night, she secretly left the hospital and disappeared in Lu Yichen's world again. Lu Yichen almost collapsed when he found out that Lin Xiao was missing again. He searched frantically for Lin Xiao, but found nothing.

At the company's annual meeting, he was named the best employee of the year. Standing on the podium, Lin Yu looked at his colleagues and leaders below the stage, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart. He knew that his career journey had just begun, and there would be more challenges waiting for him in the future.

In pain and despair, he began to indulge himself and no longer cared about the family business. Seeing her son become like this, Ye Wanrong felt a little regretful, but she still insisted that she was doing it for the good of the Lu family.
