The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.

Shu Xiangyu immediately got up, tidied her slightly disheveled hair, and straightened her off-shoulder dress before going to open the door.

To her surprise, when she opened the door, she saw Liu Zhigang standing outside. Her excited expression immediately turned to disappointment, but it was fleeting.

She asked politely, "It's so late, Mr. Liu, is there anything I can help you with?"

Liu Zhigang is not tall, slightly overweight, with a thinning bald spot on his head, and his small eyes reveal a frivolous and shrewd nature.

"I didn't even have a chance to say much to Ms. Shu tonight. After the opening ceremony tomorrow, I have to go back to Beijing..."

Liu Zhigang smiled, but his words were loaded with meaning: if there were any actresses who wanted resources, they probably would have invited him in already.

Just as Shu Xiangyu was about to get rid of him, Xi Molin walked slowly down the corridor, holding his phone in his hand.

Upon seeing the strangers appear, Liu Zhigang's expression changed instantly. He straightened his suit slightly, took two steps back, and looked displeased.

He then said, feigning nonchalance, "Well, Miss Shu, let's chat again sometime."

After saying that, he turned and left without lingering for even a moment.

They must be very afraid that Schimerlin is some kind of paparazzi, and if he were photographed and the photos were posted online, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Seeing that the person had left, Shu Xiangyu finally dropped his pretense and stopped smiling.

Schimerling cautiously observed the situation in the hallway.

"Stop looking, come in, and close the door..."

She turned and went into the room.

"Was that person an investor?"

Schimerlin went in with a sullen face and closed the door.

If she doesn't arrive in time, I'm afraid I'll take advantage of her again.

Shu Xiangyu said calmly, "These people knocking on the door late at night have very simple intentions; it's just a matter of whether it's worth it..."

Her words were filled with unclear and ambiguous intentions, which made Ximerlin feel surprised and irritated.

"What do you find me for?"

She stood not far from the door, clearly appearing polite and distant.

Shu Xiangyu sat on the sofa, hands clasped, legs crossed elegantly, and looked up at her with seductive eyes.

"I'll need your help with guidance during this shoot, but don't think I asked you to come. I only heard about it from Teacher Fan when I arrived..."

She didn't want her to mistakenly think that she was the one who interfered and forced her to come.

"Ok, I know."

She had already guessed it when she heard Cheng Chen talk about it.

"There's one more thing..."

Shu Xiangyu looked down at her palms, then at her fingernails, and after a long while, she looked up, her eyes deep and her lips curved into a gentle smile. She said with a sense of relief, "I've decided to find someone to marry..."

Hearing these seemingly ordinary words, it was as if a thunderbolt had struck Xi Molin. She froze on the spot, staring blankly at her, unsure whether what she said was true or false.

She continued with her sigh, "I'm not getting any younger, and my parents are always urging me to get married, especially after what I said on Valentine's Day. They thought that I haven't gotten over the person in my heart because I haven't dated. I've thought about it for a long time. Since I'm going to let go, I might as well find someone to marry. That way, my parents can rest assured, and we can have two children together. That would be perfect."

His smile was tinged with endless bitterness, and his words became apologetic: "Actually, what you said before was right. No one will stay in the same place and wait forever. In the past six months, I have done a lot of unreasonable things to you, which is quite embarrassing. Don't worry, I won't do those stupid things again. In the end, we will both be hurt. It's not worth it."

She stood up and slowly walked to her, reaching out to touch her pale face. Her eyes deepened, revealing a hint of barely perceptible joy: "That's good... I thought you wouldn't be sad for me anymore."

Shimmerling's eyes reddened as he stared intently at her relieved expression. She panicked, experiencing a panic she had never felt before, a restless anxiety and helplessness she could no longer calm down...

She can accept separation, but she can't accept marrying someone else; she doesn't want to at all.

Seeing that she remained unmoved, Shu Xiangyu lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly. His cool fingers brushed across her cool ear before finally landing.

She turned her back to her and said, "It's late, you should go home and rest..."

Schimerling clenched her hands tightly. She wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start; she felt she had no right to.

"If you're serious, I wish you all the best..."

His low, hoarse voice tried his best to remain calm.

"Thank you... I'm serious, of course."

Shu Xiangyu remained calm and then returned to his bedroom.

She was left standing there, stunned. She should leave immediately, but her legs felt like they were made of lead, and she couldn't move an inch.

It's understandable that she chose to get married; Rong's parents will be happy, and her fans will support her. But what about herself? Can she really just marry anyone she wants...?

Everything went as she wished. She would no longer bother her. Why did she suddenly feel so bad? Why did her heart ache so much at the thought of her being with someone else?

She undoubtedly loved her, but having always stood firm and refused to soften her stance, this time she was truly going to have to watch helplessly as her daughter left her…

It was unclear how much time had passed; long enough that Shu Xiangyu had finished washing up and come out.

She was wearing a light blue bathrobe, drying her wet hair, and when she looked up and saw that she was still there, she was clearly stunned.

"You... haven't gone back yet?"

Shimmering, standing tall and imposing like a statue, looked up at her, his gaze fixed on her, his tense body suddenly seeming to possess the courage to shatter a high wall.

She moved her feet, no longer hesitating, and resolutely walked towards her until they met face to face, their eyes meeting.

Shu Xiangyu gripped the towel, his breathing becoming heavier, his eyes equally deep and unfathomable.

"Don't...marry someone else."

A short sentence, soft and husky, had been agonizing over countless times before finally being released from a confined heart.

"Why... can't I get married?"

Shu Xiangyu raised his eyes and sneered.

The casual rhetorical question continued to assault Shimmering's remaining rationality. She suppressed her nervous and flustered heart, suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her towards herself and holding her tightly.

"Don't marry someone else."

This time, the words were even more resolute.

The sudden closeness finally stirred up the resentment that Shu Xiangyu had been suppressing for so long. He frowned and turned cold, wanting to break free from her grasp.

"Schmelinger, who do you think you are? I've shamelessly chased after you and begged you every day, and you ignored me. Now that I say I want to get married, you're starting to object. What right do you have..."

Before she could finish her roar, Ximerlin held the back of her head and forcefully kissed her delicate lips.

Even after being bitten a few times by the angry woman, she didn't pull away at all, continuing to kiss her, gradually softening her kisses and becoming more tender and affectionate.

The events of New Year's Eve are still vivid in my mind. The two of us were deeply entwined that night, but when we woke up in the morning, they were nowhere to be found.

Shu Xiangyu punched her a few times, not hard, just to vent his anger.

Everything that happened tonight was just as natural, and they continued to adapt to each other's preferences in a tacit way.

She endured the domineering and passionate power of the moment without struggling any further. This desperate attempt to survive finally paid off, and the suggestions from netizens were excellent.

But it has to be something she really cares about.

As time passed, the deep-seated love and resentment eroded their pure feelings for each other, and perhaps only unrestrained physical intimacy could bring them peace of mind.
