Chapter 229: The Dust Has Settled
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
If he wanted to get a sports car, he could afford one himself.
Why did he have to accept the gift from a woman who was trying to pursue him?
Yan Jianming looked good. There were many little celebrities that liked him, and a lot of people wanted to make connections with him. As a result, Lin Xiaojuan was always feeling threatened, but this time, the threat was the strongest she had ever felt.
She made Yan Jianming refuse the sports car. The sports car cost over ten million, and Lu Mengyun sent it to him so easily. As an ordinary person, it was hard to refuse the gift. However, Lin Xiaojuan felt like there was a fish bone stuck in her throat. Yet, Yan Jianming said that it would be a waste not to accept the gift and that he could just sell it away and make a profit.
Lin Xiaojuan argued with him over this matter, and she never rode in his Lamborghini. Yan Jianming knew that Lin Xiaojuan was angry, so he stopped driving it and left it in his garage. During that period of time, the two often argued and gave each other cold shoulders. Yan Jianming was no longer a pushover, and he began to stand up for himself.
Until one day, she was flooded with photos of Yan Jianming and Lu Mengyun in a hotel room, presented to her by reporters.
She was like a spirit who had been waiting for thousands of years, and finally, the dust had settled.
Even if she had already expected it, she felt a deep cut in her heart. During that period of time, she wished she was dead. Lin Xiaojuan asked for a breakup and planned to send Yan Jianming to another artiste manager. Yan Jianming was worried, and they gave each other cold shoulders for two months. They never spoke softly, and none of the calls from Yan Jianming were pleas for her to forgive him, but neither were they vows of cutting off all ties with Lin Xiaojuan. Lin Xiaojuan toughened up and broke up with him, but Yan Jianming self-harmed and went on his knees. Then, she gave in to him.
When it came to cheating, there was bound to be a second time if there was a first. Bad habits deep-rooted in men were extremely evident in him. Once again, Lin Xiaojuan helped him get the role of a male lead in a fantasy drama, which made him famous around many places. After behaving well for three months, he started his nonsense again and went back with Lu Mengyun.
After the show was broadcasted, Yan Jianming’s popularity rose further, and his film earnings doubled. It was impressive. Meanwhile, he still tried to bewitch Lin Xiaojuan into getting a higher share of his film earnings. This time, Lin Xiaojuan did not agree.
Because of this, the two gave each other cold shoulders for a month.
No matter how good a relationship was, there was no way anyone could handle an extravagance like this.
Lin Xiaojuan could finally see clearly. Yan Jianming was tired of her, and he no longer loved her. However, he could not leave her, as she was a manager that could give him a lot of opportunities and could pave a bright future on the red carpet for him. So, he continued cajoling her to keep her in his life.
Once he got famous, he would kick her out of his life.
The sad thing was that Xiaojuan could already see everything clearly, yet she still continued to hang on, hoping that he would mature. She wished that he would come to his senses on account of their relationship for all these years.
She had fallen too deeply into this relationship. No matter how capable she was at work, she was still a woman who had fallen in love. She could not control herself and got into deep sh*t. She watched helplessly as her love wilted. She could not do anything.
“Qianshu, am I too silly?”
“Everyone views such feelings differently, and everyone has different needs. You are looking for love, but he does not have what it takes to provide you with it,” Shen Qianshu said. Everyone had common sense. Yan Jianming had hurt her too deeply, and she should have kicked him out of her life a long time ago.
“I know, but I can’t bear to,” Lin Xiaojuan said. “I’ve been with him for so many years, and we’ve made so many plans together. He was in my plan for the future... and suddenly, they’re all gone... gone... It’s as if someone dug a block of flesh out of me. I’ve been hurting for over half a year. I’m thinking it’d be better if I’m dead rather than living so aimlessly. I’m waiting... waiting for the day he changes his mind. He will eventually realize who loves him most, but I...”
