"Hecheng, it won't do you any good to make an announcement like this." Lin Jinya insisted with tears in her eyes. "I haven't recovered yet. I'm still in the hospital. As long as they can take a photo of me, they will find out that I really did cut my wrist."
"Moreover, you won't let me go to the press conference with you. They must think that it's just your side of the story." If not for the tube in her wrist, Lin Jinya would have grabbed Gu Hecheng's hand.
"Hecheng …"
"You're right." Before Lin Jinya could finish her sentence, Gu Hecheng suddenly interrupted her. "I didn't think it through. Let's go to the press conference together."
Lin Jinya was stunned by Gu Hecheng's words. Moreover, Gu Hecheng had said clearly that he had given her what he had promised. If she did not cooperate at the press conference, the image that she had painstakingly built over the years would be destroyed in front of Gu Hecheng.
No, absolutely not.
Lin Jinya's mind raced. After a while, although she was very reluctant, she had no choice but to agree to Gu Hecheng's request.
"Okay." Lin Jinya used almost all of her strength to say this word.
Lin Jinya now knew very well that Gu Hecheng wanted to cut ties with her. Now, it was very clear that she could not continue to waste time like this.
Shen Qianqian's face suddenly flashed in front of her eyes. She guessed that perhaps Gu Hecheng's insistence on cutting ties with her had something to do with Shen Qianqian.
"Do you think I'll give up just like that?" Lin Jinya sneered in her heart. Although she lowered her head, there was an indescribable fierceness in her eyes. "I can take a step back first, but I won't give up so easily."
Thinking of this, Lin Jinya felt a little better. She also had a new plan in mind.
"Thank you for your willingness to cooperate." Gu Hecheng looked up and glanced at Lin Jinya gently and gratefully.
This gentle and pitiful gaze was exactly what Lin Jinya wanted. This was the effect she wanted. She wanted to rebuild her image of being considerate and enduring humiliation in front of Gu Hecheng so that Gu Hecheng would feel sorry for her.
Thinking of this, Lin Jinya suddenly said, "He Cheng, you know how much my heart hurts when I have to endure the pain and attend such a press conference. But it's okay, I don't care. As long as I can help you, even if it's just a little, I'm willing to do it for you."
Gu's's a good thing he did not agree or disagree with Lin Jinya.
"Then can you agree to one last request of mine?" Lin Yinya probed.
"Okay, go ahead." Gu Hecheng relented.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll tell you when I think about it in the future, okay?" Lin Jinya was afraid that Gu Hecheng would think too much, so she hurriedly said, "Don't worry. It's not about love. It's just that … it's just that I haven't thought it through yet."
Seeing Lin Jinya frown, Gu Hecheng had no choice but to say, "You don't have to explain. I know what you're thinking. I'll promise you. No matter what you want me to do in the future, I'll do it."
To Gu Hecheng, this promise was an explanation to Lin Jinya.
The break-up press conference was held as scheduled in the afternoon. Gu Hecheng publicly announced that the two of them had indeed broken up.
As for the issue of cutting her wrist, Gu Hecheng hesitated for a moment. Seeing that Lin Jinya was in a difficult position, he took the initiative to say, "Although we broke up purely because of the breakdown of our relationship, perhaps I didn't think it through enough and didn't take the initiative to care about Jinyang's feelings. That's why Jinyang did such a thing to hurt herself."
"I admit that I can't absolve myself from the blame for this matter." Gu Hecheng's eloquence and calmness appeared on the screen. Shen Qianqian was pulled to a chair by her assistant to sit down. She saw Gu Hecheng continue and said, "But our relationship has only faded and we can't go on. It's not like what the media has speculated."
Gu Hecheng looked at the camera and said slowly, "There is no third party between us. Our relationship has come to an end. That's all there is to it. I would also like to solemnly declare that if the media or anyone else spreads rumors, I will take legal action against them. "
Shen Qianqian stared blankly at Gu Hecheng. For a moment, she didn't understand what was going on.
She had always thought that Gu Hecheng would finally divorce her and get engaged to Lin Jinya. After waiting for her for five years, they would finally have a happy ending. But she didn't expect that things would turn out this way.
What exactly happened between the two of them?
This doubt only appeared for about a second. Shen Qianqian suddenly curved her lips unnaturally. She sneered in her heart and said, "No matter what happened, it has nothing to do with me."
Shen Qianqian was about to stand up when the gossipy assistant pulled her down and said, "Isn't this the CEO of Gu Corporation? The Financial Backer Dad who shot the commercial with you the other day? So he was actually dating this woman."
Shen Qianqian was stunned. "Maybe. I don't know."
"This woman isn't famous either." The assistant suddenly raised her head and said, "Wait, I remember now. Isn't this the woman who came to look for you the other day after you finished shooting the commercial?"
Shen Qianqian was speechless. She didn't expect the assistant to be so smart when it came to gossiping at a time like this.
"Based on the situation that day, I feel that this woman seems to know you. Then, she seems to be very hostile towards you …" The little assistant began to use the gossip that she was good at. "She is also President Gu's girlfriend. No, she is now his ex-girlfriend …"
"Based on this situation, could it be that you also know President Gu?" The assistant suddenly raised her voice. Fortunately, they were in the office. Shen Qianqian quickly covered her mouth!
"Lower your voice. What are you doing?" Shen Qianqian frowned.
"Hey … there is a problem. Could it be that I was right?" The assistant looked as if she had discovered a new continent.
Seeing this, Shen Qianqian felt that she couldn't just ignore the assistant and not answer her question. She thought for a while and said, "We have only met a few times in the past. I am not familiar with these people."
"Is that so?" The assistant looked at her from head to toe. But when she thought about how she had been taking care of Shen Qianqian ever since she entered the industry, she really didn't see Shen Qianqian interacting with Gu Hecheng before the commercial. She started to believe her.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'm leaving." Shen Qianqian stood up. "I don't have anything to do for the next few days. If it's not urgent, don't call me or look for me. I want to take a break."
Shen Qianqian winked mischievously. Then she opened the glass door and left the office.
As she stood in the elevator, she suddenly thought of the sentence Gu Hecheng had said on the computer screen, "All relationships come and go, but that's all there is to it."
As the elevator dinged, Shen Qianqian stepped out. Her lips curved into a thoughtful smile.
Yes, that's all there is to it.
Gu Hecheng used to love Lin Jinya so deeply. She used to love him deeply too. But now, she had given up on him.
Shen Qianqian suddenly thought of a sentence. "When you are young, don't say things like 'never', 'never', and 'definitely'. Otherwise, time will prove to you that these words are a slap in the face."
Shen Qianqian smiled and left the office calmly.
Recently, she had been busy with filming. She did not dare to video call Xiao Kong when she was at the hotel. She missed Xiao Kong so much that she was going crazy. Therefore, she arranged some of her tight schedules together and made time to accompany Xiao Kong.
When Shen Qianqian returned home, Xiao Kong had not finished school yet. Mother Liu had already started preparing dinner at home.
"Mother Liu, I'm back." Shen Qianqian took off her coat and put her bag away. She rolled up her sleeves and walked into the kitchen. "Mother Liu, is there anything I can do for you?"
Mother Liu was dealing with the shrimp lines. When she saw Shen Qianqian come in, she immediately chased her out. "You've been so tired recently. It's rare for you to come back. Why don't you go upstairs and rest? What are you doing here?"
"Mother Liu, I'm fine. I'm here to help you." Shen Qianqian stood next to Mother Liu and smiled. "We haven't stood together like this in a long time. We are preparing food and chatting at the same time."
"Yes."
Speaking of this, they could not help but think of the time when they were at the Gu villa. When Gu Hecheng was not around, the two of them lived like this. At that time, Mother Liu was almost as warm as Shen Qianqian's mother in her heart.
"Okay, then help me pick some vegetables." Mother Liu pointed at the buckwheat vegetables in the distance. "Qianqian, you are an actress now. Don't cook anymore. Cooking is very smoky and is not good for your skin. What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
Although Mother Liu was joking, she inexplicably thought of how she used to cook for Gu Hecheng in the past. She could not help but feel sorry for her.
Shen Qianqian seemed to be able to see the sadness between Mother Liu's brows. She smiled and said, "Then how can I be so free? When I have time, I will think of cooking for Xiao Kong personally. I also want you to try my new dish. Of course, I'm afraid you won't like my cooking."
"Why wouldn't I like it?" Mother Liu glared at her. Now, she called her by her name very smoothly, as if she was calling her own child. "But Qianqian, don't tire yourself out. You know, Xiao Kong now asks me every day if Mom has rested well and if you have eaten well. That clever little guy is very satisfied with just one call from you every day. He is just worried about you."
