Chapter 1036: Chapter 1036: The Engagent is Broken Off Chapter 1036: Chapter 1036: The Engagent is Broken Off Wealth tucked his head inside the car, but his big eyes kept rolling around.
“Bark bark bark!” he was thrilled, occasionally turning his head to look at Xu Chaomu with eyes wide, his fur blowing in the wind like a brave little warrior.
Xu Chaomu watched him and laughed out loud.
She rode along the bridge and released her hands from the handlebars as she reached underneath the bridge, letting the bicycle glide downward!
Facing the wind, against the light, in that mont, she suddenly rembered what soone had once told her: “If your heart faces the sun, there’s no point in being sad.”
That was pretty much her current state of life.
Those complicated and joyless events of the past, she let them go, heading towards the sunshine, she still needed to walk alone…
Fortunately, the journey was accompanied by sunshine and blooming flowers, not much pity for the world, but rather an indifferent, quietly passing ti.
When the bike ca down from the bridge, Xu Chaomu used one hand to steady the handlebars and stopped the bike on the roadside.
Under the bridge was an empty area developed for viewing the river, crowded with quite a few people.
Xu Chaomu stopped her bike, lifted Wealth out of the basket, and ran to the open space, one after the other.
Tying her hair in a ponytail and wearing white sneakers, Xu Chaomu was youthful and sunny, lively and bold, her smile bright and beautiful.
Blending into the crowd, she chatted and laughed with everyone.
There was a vendor selling small turtles, and Xu Chaomu, finding a small turtle quite cute, asked Wealth, “Wealth, how about buying a little turtle to keep you company?”
Wealth seed displeased, huffed, and turned his head away.
Xu Chaomu laughed even harder, touched Wealth’s little head: “I knew you wouldn’t like it, okay, okay, we won’t buy it, just you alone.”
She sat with Wealth on a dock, watching the vast river and the coming and going ships, facing the breeze coming off the river.
The air was fresh, and the environnt was pleasant here. Xu Chaomu didn’t want to leave.
She planned to stay until the sunset before heading ho.
Wealth obediently squatted next to Xu Chaomu, well-behaved and not running around.
Xu Chaomu patted his head and sighed.
Fortunately, he was still all right.
If anything were to happen to him, she wouldn’t let Bai Man off the hook!
By the river, she couldn’t help but think of Bai Man again, that woman, who kept texting her from different numbers even after Xu Chaomu had blocked all her main accounts.
Xu Chaomu felt this woman really had too much free ti…
But indeed, Bai Man had too much free ti.
After she sent Xu Chaomu the photos of Shen Chi throwing Xu Chaomu’s belongings, and received no response from her, she was displeased.
No response at all? No more love?
Bai Man thought this was for the best, it would be better to just sign the divorce agreent cleanly and not entangle with Shen Chi anymore.
During those days, Bai Xuan took a trip abroad.
When Bai Man knew her father had gone abroad, she imdiately perked up, no one at ho dared to control her, and she started going out again.
The first person she arranged to et was naturally Shen Chi; those days, she tried to et with Shen Chi several tis.
Shen Chi declined every ti, saying that their relationship was rely a collaboration, and moreover, the collaboration had not yet been realized, getting caught by reporters wouldn’t be good.
Bai Man was a bit disheartened; she knew what he was worried about.
Wasn’t it just the concern of getting entangled with a married woman?
So, in those few days, she resolutely went to find Gu Xiuting and discussed the annulnt of their engagent.
Gu Xiuting, dismissing her with disdain, said coldly, “Bai Man, have you thought this through? We are together out of mutual need, and splitting would be detrintal for both of us.”
“Sorry, but you no longer hold any value to . I have more important directions to work on, a bigger support to rely on,” Bai Man bluntly refused, leaving no room for rcy.
Gu Xiuting frowned, finding her words quite unpleasant.
He lit a cigarette and disdainfully said, “So, it appears those recent rumors in the newspapers are true? Your old flas with Mr. Shen have been rekindled?”
“That’s none of your concern. I just think it would be better if we could go back together and ntion the annulnt,” Bai Man said.
“You’re so confident in yourself? You really think you can win over soone like Mr. Shen?”
“I told you, it’s none of your concern. All you need to do is agree to the annulnt.”
“What if I refuse?”
“What are you aiming for then? You won’t fall for and I certainly won’t fall for you. The Bai Family provided so sponsorships and the Gu Family prospered.”
“I was just speaking offhand, what are you anxious about?” Gu Xiuting said with disdain. “You want to annul the marriage, just annul it. As you said, we are together just out of mutual need. But don’t be too confident, Shen Chi is not soone you can control.”
“At least, he is a normal man,” Bai Man hinted with a hint of ambiguity.
Gu Xiuting scoffed coldly, “Then I’ll just watch you and Mr. Shen enjoy a century of good harmony.”
“Thank you,” Bai Man replied ungraciously.
“Rember to send over the final paynt from the Bai Family,” Gu Xiuting said indifferently.
Having said that, he stood up and walked out of the restaurant without a trace of rcy.
“Then rember the annulnt,” Bai Man said.
“Don’t worry,” Gu Xiuting replied without turning back, heading straight out, “I was never interested in you anyway.”
Everything before was just an act, as partners of convenience, there was no real attachnt.
Now that Bai Man had spoken these words, it seed he wouldn’t need to return to C City, and could instead stay in Washington indefinitely.
As for Bai Man, she could fend for herself.
As soon as Gu Xiuting left, Bai Man’s heart blood with joy.
As long as Gu Xiuting agreed, the following matters wouldn’t be a problem. Still, losing such a big backer like Gu Xiuting, she did feel a bit reluctant.
She didn’t know what stance Shen Chi would adopt, now that she had severed ties with Gu Xiuting, he had no reason to reject her again.
Thinking this, a slight smile ford on Bai Man’s lips and her heart fluttered.
…
Gu Xiuting was quite quick and efficient in handling matters. As soon as Bai Man proposed the annulnt, he imdiately went ho to discuss it with his parents.
Before Bai Xuan returned to the country, the Gu Family, annoyed, directly annulled the engagent.
Bai Man made her own decision to dissolve her engagent with Gu Xiuting.
From then on, she, Bai Man, was a free individual, never again to intersect with Gu Xiuting.
Moreover, the matter was imdiately discovered by journalists, sparking a whirlwind of speculation.
Everyone felt that Bai Man must have found a new love. Coupled with the prior rumors, everyone believed that Bai Man and Shen Chi had rekindled their old romance.
Yet this reunion of the golden boy and golden girl once more provided great gossip and talking points for the circle.
Everyone lanted that rich n change won as easily as changing clothes. Shen Chi, who had shown such grand romance to his ex-girlfriend at the trade show, ended up back with Bai Man anyway.
