Yun Muqing was still bothered by the strange thoughts after she sent the two carefree kids away.

She sat down on the lawn and placed her fair wrists under her chin. She sighed quietly. “I should have left Duo Duo there with them so she can help me by spying on them.” Then, Yun Muqing snorted angrily. “Duo Duo, that silly girl! How can she be so insensitive? She called Heather so dearly by ‘Miss Heather’ when she’s not even that close to me, her own mother! Heather is just a few years younger than me, but Duo Duo called her ‘Miss’! And Chu Feng, that moron, actually looked at Heather 26 times, whereas he just looked at me and Duo Duo for a total of 17 times only!”

Out of jealousy, Yun Muqing mumbled endlessly on her own. While touching her fair and soft face, suddenly, she was startled by an idea. For the first time in her life, she felt threatened by a young lady like Heather. Perhaps, I’ve grown old and lost my charm?

At the same time, in the president’s office at the top of a business commercial center in Happy Valley, Chu Feng and Heather were sitting on an authentic leather couch which was air-freighted from Italy. They looked out through the windows; outside the windows, there were tall and magnificent buildings and beyond the buildings, mountain ranges surrounded the city. Almost the entire scenery of Jiangling could be seen from the office.

An old gentleman, who was dressed like a butler serving a Western noble family, was standing straight and obediently at a corner in the office. He wore a tuxedo and his silver hair was combed meticulously. The elderly man looked at Chu Feng in arrogance and disdain—he disliked Chu Feng. The man was Old Henry, Heather’s family butler. He was the Senior Vice President of Happy Valley Group, a powerful man indeed. He usually acquainted himself with prominent billionaires, but now, he was ordered to serve tea to Chu Feng, a young lad in his twenties. He wondered what his mistress, Heather, was thinking about when she told him to serve Chu Feng.

“There’s an old saying that goes, ‘Try to ascend the mountain’s crest; it dwarfs all peaks under our feet’. [1] It means the higher you stand, the wider your horizon will be,” Chu Feng said while looking at the view outside. “Almost the entire Jiangling can be seen from your office here. If you stay here all day with a view like this, I’m not surprised that you can build the Happy Valley business empire worth a market price of two hundred billion USD within such a short period of time.”

Arrogance crossed Old Henry’s face when he heard Chu Feng’s words. He was very proud of his mistress. Miss Heather was the most talented lady, who has achieved an extraordinary success incomparable in the whole Western world.

On the other hand, Heather waved her hand and said politely, “My Lord, you’re too much. No matter how high we stand and how far we look, we’re still in Jiangling. But you are different, my Lord, you are a great man, much like a mighty dragon which glides through the sky and watches us from above, as though the whole world is under your feet.”

Chu Feng picked up his tea cup and sighed. “Well, it’s not always fun to be high above the sky alone. It’s better to stay on earth where you feel livelier being surrounded by people. It’s less lonely too.”

“That’s why you decided to retire and settle down with a quiet married life?” Heather glanced at Chu Feng and said quietly, “Besides, I think your wife has a prejudice against me. She doesn’t seem to like me very much.” She sighed.
