Bian Yue admired her own calmness at the ti.
After the huge shock, she could still promptly analyze the pros and cons, and said in a calm tone: "This matter cannot be fernted right now. Honey has just gotten on track, and my engagent with Li Sihe is already well known. If the scandal breaks out now, neither Honey nor the Li Family will be able to escape."
anny gasped in shock, tremblingly said: "President Bian! You’re actually so dedicated! I thought you were just casually running Honey! But you’re really planning to work hard on it?"
And Bian Yue, with her last bit of rationality, instructed anny to imdiately contact Qin Zhi’s agent, saying she wanted to et Qin Zhi.
anny agreed, and did not forget to assure Bian Yue, "Rest assured, the public will not know about this matter, it has been suppressed. As for Qin Zhi, I will handle it!"
That was the first confrontation between Bian Yue and Li Sihe.
She sat on the hall sofa, the bamboo dragonfly in her hands broke into two, the thorns sharp, piercing into her fingers. She expressionlessly removed them, watching as Li Sihe walked in from outside.
He was wearing a black suit, business-like and cold, elegant and noble, much like the leading man in a romance drama.
Their eyes t, both expressions were calm.
Bian Yue took a sip of iced water from the table, and then said: "On my way back today, I heard sothing. I don’t know if it’s true."
Li Sihe’s peach blossom eyes lowered, glanced at Bian Yue, calm and composed, "What answer do you want to know?"
"Sobody said you were seen coming out of Qin Zhi’s room. What were you two doing in there?"
"What do you think a man and a woman can do in a room?" Li Sihe sat down, unbuttoned his suit jacket, and looked at Bian Yue indifferently: "Do you want to ask if we were making love?"
Bian Yue found it unbelievable, looking up at Li Sihe.
She had to use all her strength to prevent herself from losing her composure.
And Li Sihe calmly said: "We did nothing. She took advantage of my drunken state to pull into the hotel room."
It seed as if Bian Yue had been drained of all her strength in an instant.
Seeing Li Sihe getting up, ready to leave, Bian Yue called out his na, her voice ice-cold, "Li Sihe, if you’re having an affair, don’t let the dia sniff it out. Neither I nor the Li Family can afford to lose this face."
Li Sihe’s steps halted, he turned his face to look at Bian Yue, very serene, very peaceful, he said: "Got it, don’t worry, there won’t be a next ti."
It was as if they grew apart from that mont.
At that ti, Bian Yue had not yet developed the calmness that cos with weathering storms over a year. She went to see Qin Zhi, the glamorous leading actress.
The latter had an innocent look in her eyes, smilingly said: "Miss Bian, you’re lucky to be born into a good life, but apart from that, what do you have over ? Mr. Li talks with into the night, could it be because you’re boring?"
Bian Yue stayed calm, stood up in front of Qin Zhi’s triumphant gaze, and crisply slapped her.
The clear slap echoed in the empty hotel.
"You hit ?" Qin Zhi covered her face, incredulous, "I’m a leading actress! Why did you hit ?"
"What is a leading actress? If I want, I can promote countless leading actresses in the future, who gave you the audacity to point fingers at here?"
Bian Yue sneered, gently tilted her chin up, posture proud: "The fiancé of Bian Yue, unless I don’t want him, is off-limits to anyone else!"
Qin Zhi looked at her hatefully, eyes filled with unwillingness.
Bian Yue just looked down indifferently, her words light and indifferent, "From now on, I don’t want to see you in the film and television industry. Consider retiring."
Qin Zhi stood in shock, not expecting Bian Yue to go to such lengths.
Qin Zhi, furious, stood up: "You dare to put on ice?"
"Isn’t soone who touched what they shouldn’t be put on ice?"
Bian Yue turned coldly and walked away.
Qin Zhi hysterically said from behind her, "Bian Yue! Do you think my case was an accident? Just wait and see! There will be countless others like in the future! I’d like to see how you can keep hiding !"
Later on, as Qin Zhi had said, within a year, Li Sihe was embroiled in nurous scandals.
Although the dia never again caught him red-handed, who could say he was innocent?
He was a graceful dancer and beca the epito of a debonair young noble who was desired by thousands of girls, all lining up for a chance to share his bed.
In the end, Bian Yue almost beca numb.
Shi An’an was the last, and the only one, who ca to provoke her directly.
But by then, Bian Yue no longer possessed the forcefulness and tactics she had when dealing with Qin Zhi; after all, people are inexhaustible.
Bian Yue thought, at the heart of it all, it was simply because Li Sihe no longer loved her.
And now, Wen Jiao was actually telling her that Shen Jinci liked her.
Bian Yue was very shocked, to the extent that she couldn’t believe it at all.
She didn’t feel like there was anything special about her, nothing special enough to be liked by Shen Jinci.
The final year of struggling with Li Sihe had in fact eroded Bian Yue’s pride in love.
"I am insecure, but that doesn’t conflict with the fact that Shen Jinci won’t like ," Bian Yue calmly responded to Wen Jiao.
Wen Jiao sighed, initially wanting to say sothing, but seeing Bian Yue’s dispirited look, all that was left was sympathy, and she hugged Bian Yue tightly, without saying a word.
"It’s okay... Bian Yue, it’s okay...it’s okay..." Wen Jiao said, "Ti will reveal a person’s heart, and you two have plenty of it."
But these words made Bian Yue’s heart quiver and begin to ache.
Ti will reveal a person’s heart.
But how much more ti is there, really?
Bian Yue felt uneasy at heart.
She said, "Jiaojiao, you go ho first. I want to go sowhere today."
The place Bian Yue intended to go was Ling’an Temple.
That day, she ca here because Shen Jinci went inside to worship his parents, while she sat outside under the eaves, lost in thought.
And today, with the rainy season of Gang City unceasing, Bian Yue held an umbrella amidst the surge of people, watching the thriving scene.
In her hand, she held the incense sticks bought from the temple entrance, approaching the incense burner. Inside, red candles were neatly arranged, burning intensely. Bian Yue lit the incense sticks with a red candle, devoutly offered her prayers, and inserted them amid the many others.
She was careless in her movents, getting burnt by other incense sticks in the burner several tis.
After all this, Bian Yue went to the temple abbot to get a peace charm.
The abbot stared at Bian Yue for a long ti, then suddenly smiled warmly and asked, "Benefactor, did you co with Mr. Shen last ti?"
Bian Yue was startled, and with hands pressed together, she bowed to the abbot, saying, "Yes, he is my husband, and we are married."
"This peace charm, is it also for Mr. Shen?"
"Yes." Bian Yue was sowhat embarrassed but reverent in front of the abbot, answering any questions, "He’s not in good health, and I hope he lives to a ripe old age."
The abbot nodded with a smile, handing a peace charm to Bian Yue, "This peace charm can be here, and even though Mr. Shen does not believe in Buddha, he will be moved by the Benefactor’s sincerity."
Bian Yue felt guilty inside, as, after all, she was also soone who didn’t believe in Buddha.
She said goodbye to the abbot, turned, and left, unaware that Li Sihe, who was separated by the crowd, brushed past her unnoticed.
