She was clearly burning her bridges.

Once the media got hold of it, there would be no turning back.

Xia Yangyang seemed lost in thought, unsure of what her intentions were.

Finally, she spoke, “I just fear that I might regret it.”

The news of Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen’s divorce created quite a stir in the media.

The fairy-tale romance of the rich had shattered.

Many claimed they would never believe in love again.

Nevertheless, many women celebrated this development.

The position of Mrs. Gu was finally vacant.

Gu Qichen, on the other hand, had not issued any response.

However, when Gu Qichen saw the news, he threw his phone.

All the reporters in Shengyuan’s secretarial department knew about this incident.

Xia Yangyang stayed at home for two days to avoid the media attention.

On the third day, she went to Time.

She had to explain a lot of things to Shen Shichuan.

Shen Shichuan sighed, “I was the one who brought you into the entertainment industry, knowing that you never really wanted this. Now that you’re leaving, I have no objections. Becoming a star must have weighed heavily on you, and it’s a feeling I can understand.”

Xia Yangyang answered him, “Brother Shen, about Starlight, I have to ask you for a favor. I’m just a figurehead director of Starlight. In fact, all the shares belong to Time. So, Brother Shen, I’m entrusting Starlight to you.”

Shen Shichuan was surprised, “Managing Starlight for you is no problem. However, from what you just said, it sounds like you’re planning to leave?”

Xia Yangyang smiled, “I plan to study abroad.”

Shen Shichuan was silent for a while, “You’re trying to escape from a place that brings you sorrow. I didn’t expect that you and Ah Chen would end up like this.”

Xia Yangyang managed a weak smile and tried to act nonchalant, “We were just not meant to be. There’s nothing to regret.”

“Ah Chen has been in a bad state these days. Before you leave, do you want to see him?”

Xia Yangyang lowered her head, “Let’s forget it. We no longer have anything to do with each other.”

Xia Yangyang even refrained from asking about Gu Qichen’s condition.

Shen Shichuan sighed heavily, “Then I’ll invite you to dinner tonight as a goodbye. In the future, if you need help with anything, you know you can always come to me.”

Xia Yangyang stepped forward and gave Shen Shichuan a hug, “Thank you, Brother Shen, for taking care of Starlight. That puts my mind at ease.”

“Xia Yangyang, let’s be clear, I’ll be temporarily managing Starlight for you. In the future, you’ll have to take it back. You mustn’t think of passing this responsibility onto me permanently. I’m a shrewd businessman, after all. I never make deals that are not profitable.”

Xia Yangyang laughed, “No shrewd businessman would ever admit to being one.”

In the evening, Xia Yangyang had dinner with Shen Shichuan and Shen Manbing.

Shen Manbing was visibly upset throughout the dinner.

Even when Xia Yangyang tried to appease her, she remained angry.

In the end, Xia Yangyang stopped trying and just chatted with Shen Shichuan instead.

At this point, Shen Manbing couldn’t help but speak up, “Xia Yangyang, are you really planning to leave everything behind and go abroad? Even if you got a divorce from Ah Chen, you still have friends here. Do you have to go abroad?”

Shen Shichuan interrupted, “Yangyang plans to study abroad.”

Shen Manbing glared at him, “You think I’m a fool? She’s just running away. If she really leaves for a few years, what will happen to Ah Chen? Getting back together will be hard.”

Xia Yangyang couldn’t help but laugh.

She hadn’t anticipated that Shen Manbing would worry about her reconciliation immediately after her divorce.

Xia Yangyang responded, “Reconciliation with him is impossible. It might be a good thing for both of us to forget each other sooner.”

Shen Manbing’s expression became serious, “You might seem carefree, but I think Ah Chen won’t be able to survive without you. Look at him now. He’s neither human nor ghost. He’s not the Gu Qichen I know. He’s living alone in the Maple Villa, drinking all day. I visited him yesterday. I hardly recognized him.”
