Li Rui and his wife at the time were both actors .

His wife back then was a newcomer in the show business and Li Rui fancied sweet young girls, so they got married .

With his help, his ex-wife steadily climbed the ladder to fame .

Eventually, their relationship deteriorated over time .

At the time, Qiao Lian had just started working in this field and had not yet develop a sharp sense for situations .

She only took Old Liu’s word that Li Rui was having an affair .

Li Rui was similar to Shen Liangchuan in that he deliberately kept a low profile, hence trying to get any information about him was not easy .

However, at that time she had been desperate for money to pay her rent . So she gritted her teeth and, for three days straight, waited at the spot he was likely to appear at .

She stayed awake for three whole days, only having bread and mineral water . Eventually she managed to snap that shot of Li Rui and his new lover . Happily, she handed the picture over to Old Liu . Back then, she had not felt that she was doing something wrong .

Because she had been reporting a fact .

But now…

She widened her eyes, stunned by Shen Liangchuan’s words .

Li Rui and his ex-wife had divorced by that time?

She was speechless, feeling very much at a loss and helpless all at once . She bit her lip and stammered, “How- how is that possible?”

Shen Liangchuan looked away as he said, “Li Rui and his wife parted in peace . Their relationship had fallen apart because they spent most of their time being apart from each other . They had filming commitments . Both of them were at the peak of their careers, so their divorce had never been publicly announced . You only saw that Li Rui had a new lover, but did you also know that at the same time his ex-wife had a boyfriend too?”

Qiao Lian’s lips quivered slightly as she asked, “But- but why did he not clarify the situation then?”

Shen Liangchuan replied with a gloomy expression, “When the news broke, his ex-wife’s popularity went up a notch as the public sympathized with her . And because he still felt guilty towards her, he decided not to clarify it and instead admitted to the affair . ”

Qiao Lian was stunned by this new discovery .

In reality, the public opinion was never too tolerant when it came to third parties and affairs .

Hence, Li Rui’s ‘affair’ had ruined his entertainment career .

At the time, he had been at the peak of his career . And when this incident happened, he was heavily criticized and all the filming crews canceled their contracts with him . From then on, he vanished from the scene .

When Qiao Lian realized that persistent action of hers had been the end of a celebrity, she felt as though there was an invisible hand tightly squeezing her chest, choking her .

She had never meant hurt anyone . Her intention had just been to bring things out into the open for a fair debate, and for people to judge for themselves .

Now she felt a mix of all sorts of emotions in her heart . Guilt, shame, remorse and sadness—they were pouring like water off a broken bottle .

She looked up and took a quick glance at Shen Liangchuan . Realizing that she could no longer face him, she said, “I- I understand . ”

Then, she quickly got up from her seat and walked out of the study, ashamed and embarrassed .

She left the villa in a daze, walking into the night and breathing in the fresh air of the night until she slowly calmed down .

Under Shen Liangchuan’s glare, she had felt as though she was a dirty, unworthy being .

However, she did not realize that from the study’s balcony on the second floor, Shen Liangchuan stood watching her as she walked away .

Her emotions did not go unnoticed by him .

He clenched his fists tightly .

Years ago, when Xia Yehua left her marriage with nothing and he entered the entertainment industry, everything had seemed glittery on the surface . But if it hadn’t been for the fact that he had the Shen family’s name to lean on, he wouldn’t have had it that easy .
