Chapter 52: An Unexpected Proposal

As Lin Yuer's business dealings in the capital continue to thrive, Wei Li becomes more persistent in his attempts to get closer to her. At a formal gathering, he proposes an ambitious partnership, one that would give Lin Yuer access to the emperor's court and his resources. While the offer is tempting, Lin Yuer is skeptical. Wei Li's motivations are unclear, and she wonders if he's simply trying to use her as a stepping stone to advance his own status.

Lin Yuer knows that this could be a crucial turning point in her journey. She must decide whether to trust Wei Li and take the risk of aligning with him, or to continue building her empire independently. The decision weighs heavily on her mind, but she resolves to think carefully, keeping her eyes on her long-term goals.
