Gu Xichen paused, then continued, "With a man like Long Yubei, he can play gas, but if you really play with him, you’re bound to lose because he holds the power. He has the right to end the ga between you at any ti. Don’t think that marrying you ans he’s serious. Giving you a ceremony is just changing the form, the nature remains the sa. If he wants to end it, a divorce agreent is all it takes. See, it’s that simple. He might fall in love with you sooner or later, but it’s also possible that the ga could end before he ever does."
Gu Lili was silent; for a mont, there was no sound on the other end of the phone.
Sensing that she might be feeling choked up inside, Gu Xichen said, "It’s not like you’re out of options. Don’t worry. If you divorce him, I can marry you right afterwards."
"Who’s worried about that?!" she imdiately replied. "I’m not, at all. I’m hanging up now; I need to sleep."
Before Gu Xichen could react, the call was already disconnected.
The phone was set down on the table by Gu Lili. She lay there, not wanting to think about anything, closing her eyes and forcing herself to sleep.
...
When Long Yubei returned, he found the door had been locked from the inside.
He didn’t force his way in, but instead slept in the guest room.
Therefore, when Gu Lili woke up in the morning, she realized that he hadn’t co back to sleep.
Did he not co back all night because of this incident?
Gu Lili was livid with anger, starting her day with smoldering frustration. She grabbed her bag and went downstairs.
Long Yubei was in the side hall having breakfast and saw her leaving the house.
By the ti he went out, she had already driven off.
Gu Lili ate out on the street and then went straight back to Xiliang Mountain.
She turned off her phone, closed the big door, and planned to stay there for a short while.

Early in the morning, Liang He’s nanny car arrived at the agency’s doorstep.
Shi Xiaotian followed him, and together they went to President Su’s office.
Little did they know, upon entering, they would find Sun Qianqian there as well.
Seeing her, Liang He wore an indifferent expression and sat down next to her, turning his attention to the opposite President Su, to imdiately clear his own na, "You’re not here to question , are you? I saw the news this morning; it’s got nothing to do with ."
"Is it really not leaked by you?" President Su asked. "Apart from you and your agent, no one else knew about Qianqian and Producer Zhou’s hotel incident. How did it make the news?"
"President Su, you know my reputation. Could it not have been that gossip-loving Producer Zhou who leaked it himself?"
"That’s very possible. I just called you in to ask, no suspicion intended."
As soon as President Su finished speaking, Sun Qianqian couldn’t help but shoot Liang He a disdainful look, "Nine out of ten, it was you who deliberately leaked it. Aren’t you just infatuated with ? I’ve never responded to you. Done in by your frustration and unable to swallow your pride after finding out about Producer Zhou and , right?"
"Infatuated with you? You wish. I was just looking out for you because you’re from the sa company. Do you really think of yourself as a precious flower? Spare . Soone like you, a broken branch and wilted leaf, shouldn’t act so high and mighty. You’re not even as attractive as my agent."
"You’re lying!"
"I’m not." He would never betray the nobility of his pride, his past feelings.
"Alright, that’s enough," President Su waved his hand, "let’s stop talking about it. From now on, no one is allowed to bring it up again. I’ve already had soone handle it. Liangzi, because of the ss you made crashing the hotel that ti, Producer Zhou stopped contacting Qianqian after that, and the lead actress role was scrapped too."
