Chapter 10

Shen Yanshi’s expression gradually became gloomier.

Ming Tianlang was shocked and said, “Is this impossible?”

As far as he knew, Xiang Nuan and Shen Yanshi had just broken up not long ago!

Moreover, even if Xiang Nuan had ten times the courage, she would not dare to have the best of both worlds.

Cao Lian sneered: “How many news in the entertainment industry are true? She pretends to be pure and innocent in front of people, but who knows how many people’s beds she has slept with behind people’s backs.”

Chen Yanshi clicked on the Weibo post titled “Xiang Nuan’s eyes when looking at Xia Zeming”. It was a 20-second short video. Everyone around her was rushing to answer the questions, but she was the only one quietly looking at Xia Zeming who was painting with his head down.

It was a look he had never seen before, one full of nostalgia, loss, yearning, admiration, and too many indescribable emotions mixed in it. It was a strange Xiang Nuan he had never seen before.

Chen Yanshi threw the phone back to Ming Tianlang: “I have something to do and I’ll leave first.”

He picked up his coat and left.

When he walked out of the club, Gong Nian chased him out.

“Feast time!”

Shen Yanshi’s eyes were dim and unclear: “What’s the matter?”

Gong Nian stared at him blankly, unable to discern his emotions for a moment. They had clearly grown up together, and she thought she knew him best, but she had been away for a few years and when she came back, she found that she couldn’t seem to see through him anymore.

He has become more cunning than when he was a child, with eyes that are hard to see through. Perhaps it is because he has been working in the company for a few years, and the slightest bit of boyish naivety from his childhood has completely disappeared. He is now as steady and unfathomable as an ancient well.

Gong Nian bit her lip and said, “I heard that you’ve been dating a little celebrity recently?”

“how?”

“Women in the entertainment industry are very messy. They will do anything for profit. I am worried about you.”

Shen Yanshi sneered: “More unscrupulous than me?”

Gong Nian froze for a moment, unable to answer.

“I will let a lawyer follow up on your divorce lawsuit. Don’t worry, I will fight for your best interests.”

“I don’t need the greatest benefit, I just want it to end as soon as possible. I’ve had enough of the banquet.” Gong Nian’s eyes were red, and he looked fragile and helpless.

When Chen Yanshi looked at her red eyes, a thought flashed through his mind: Why did Xiang Nuan never cry?

She is always so lively, enthusiastic and bright, and she is easy to be happy.

He thought she was always happy.

“Please tell your lawyer the specific details.”

Shen Yanshi turned to leave, but Gong Nian grabbed his arm and asked with sobs, “Do you still blame me?”

“Why should I blame you?”

“When you had that accident, I couldn’t stay with you. But, but I was forced to do so. My mother forced me to marry Wei Chengze, and I couldn’t let you go. I wanted to be with you. These years, I haven’t had a good life. Wei Chengze cheated on me, and he also beat me. During the banquet, without you to protect me, I was always bullied.”

Gong Nian cried bitterly, grabbing his sleeve tightly as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

“Gong Nian, I don’t blame you, and I don’t need you to stay with me. Even if you stay, you can’t help me.” Shen Yanshi’s voice was cold.

Gong Nian’s fingers trembled and he looked up at him in a daze.

Yes, this is Chen Yanshi. He doesn’t really need a woman to accompany him through the lows. He only cares about gains and losses.

“The divorce lawsuit will be settled within three months. When the lawsuit is over, you and Wei Chengze will have nothing to do with each other. Don’t think too much and be at ease.”
