Chapter 80 - 80 80 She Should Please Herself
Chapter 80: Chapter 80 She Should Please Herself Chapter 80: Chapter 80 She Should Please Herself But before, photos of Liang Shiyu and Xie Linchuan together had been leaked by the entertainment media, so naturally, everyone knew about their affair.
Later, although the news of Xie Linchuan’s breakup with Liang Shiyu wasn’t widely known, those familiar within the circle were aware that Xie Linchuan and Liang Shiyu had already split.
Now, suddenly having to marry, once the child is born, wouldn’t that plainly show Liang Shiyu leveraging her child to ascend in status?
Xu Jinzhi, from her past life’s experience dealing with Liang Shiyu, knew her nature very clearly.
In the end, what Liang Shiyu cared about was her own reputation!
Why did she enter the entertainment industry if not for the thrill of being adored?
Even if she compromised now, saying she would exit the entertainment industry, she still wouldn’t want the persona she’d worked hard to build to completely collapse.
Moreover, Xu Jinzhi knew that after marrying Xie Linchuan, Liang Shiyu would definitely want to return to the entertainment industry.
After all, Liang Shiyu had done such things in her past life.
This lifetime, Xu Jinzhi didn’t believe she genuinely wanted to leave the entertainment industry.
So, she was extremely concerned about her reputation.
But what did that have to do with her?
Xu Jinzhi couldn’t even be bothered to look at Liang Shiyu, directly giving Xie Linchuan a cold look and impatiently said, “Once or twice is tolerable, but not three or four times.”
“You and Ms. Liang’s affairs are none of my business, but if I hear again that you want to use my wedding, I won’t be so polite.”
Saying this, Xu Jinzhi sneered mockingly, “Xie Linchuan, we’ve worked together for many years, you should know whether I have the ability, right?”
Xie Linchuan’s expression grew solemn, and he did not speak, clearly not doubting Xu Jinzhi’s capability.
The office fell into a brief silence, and after a while, Xu Jinzhi continued, “Can we talk about work now?”
Xie Linchuan still didn’t speak, and Xu Jinzhi turned to look at Liang Shiyu, her face set with a formal smile, “Ms. Liang, we’re about to start discussing work, please leave first.”
Liang Shiyu instinctively looked at Xie Linchuan beside her, but Xie Linchuan said nothing, leaving Liang Shiyu frustrated and without a solution.
Finally, Liang Shiyu had no choice but to leave the office.
After exiting the office, Liang Shiyu quickly glanced at the sign and then hurriedly headed in the direction of the restroom with her head down.
Meanwhile, in the office, Xu Jinzhi conducted business formally, completely ignoring Xie Linchuan’s expression.
Half an hour later, Xie Linchuan left the office, pulled out his phone, and found a message from Liang Shiyu saying she had gone downstairs first.
Xie Linchuan didn’t linger and went straight downstairs.
Upon arriving at the company parking lot and opening the car door, Xie Linchuan immediately saw Liang Shiyu with red-rimmed eyes.
“Linchuan,” Liang Shiyu’s voice still held a sob, and looking at Xie Linchuan, she seemed extremely aggrieved.
In the past, seeing Liang Shiyu with red eyes, Xie Linchuan would have been overwhelmed with pity and asked what happened.
Now, seeing Liang Shiyu’s red eyes, Xie Linchuan still felt pity for her, but at the same time, his heart grew increasingly heavy.
From knowing about Liang Shiyu’s pregnancy until now, only a week had passed, yet Xie Linchuan felt life had become a mess, as if he couldn’t manage anything properly.
But Xie Linchuan was very clear that it was his own inability to handle everything that had caused Liang Shiyu so much grief.
“I’m sorry,” Xie Linchuan said hoarsely.
“It’s my fault that you’re being looked down upon,” Liang Shiyu’s voice was choked with emotion—the people looking down on Xie Linchuan were clearly referring to Xu Jinzhi.
Xie Linchuan shook his head, “This issue was indeed my fault; it’s normal for her to be angry.”
He had known Xu Jinzhi for more than just a day or two; her temperament had always been like this. After all, Xu Family had only one daughter like Xu Jinzhi; she had the capital to be proud.
More importantly, it was indeed their problem to want to take advantage of someone else’s wedding.
“I know, I just feel a bit upset,” Liang Shiyu murmured quietly.
Xie Linchuan didn’t respond, and it was unclear whether he had heard Liang Shiyu’s words.
Casting a casual glance at the preoccupied Xie Linchuan, Liang Shiyu felt complicated at the moment.
She knew that Xie Linchuan loved her and she loved him too, but the Xie Family didn’t approve of her, insisting she leave the entertainment industry.
Of course, she was unwilling; she had fought hard to be among the top young actresses and the future would only be better!
But during these past few months apart, she seemed to realize that there was no one else around her like Xie Linchuan who still wanted to marry her!
She was in immense pain and conflicted, unsure of what to do. They clearly loved each other, so why couldn’t they be together properly?
And just then, Liang Shiyu found out she was pregnant, a moment that actually made her very happy.
She felt there was another chance with Xie Linchuan!
So, Liang Shiyu told Xie Linchuan about the pregnancy immediately, and Xie Linchuan said that this time, no matter what, they had to get married!
Things afterward seemed to go smoothly, yet not smoothly at all.
The Xie Family didn’t oppose their marriage, but they didn’t care at all about the wedding.
Of course, Liang Shiyu hoped to be grandly welcomed by the Xie Family, showing everyone she was beloved by the elders.
But now there wasn’t enough time; even the baby in her belly couldn’t wait!
It wasn’t that there was no solution—it was Xu Jinzhi, her future sister-in-law, who was unwilling!
Logically, marrying Xie Linchuan, who was the heir to the Xie Group, she should be the Mrs. Xie who would take charge of the household.
Though Xu Jinzhi’s maternal family was formidable, what of it?
Xu Jinzhi was to marry Xie Yanchuan and should, like other members of the family, seek to please and rely on her.
But every time they met, Xu Jinzhi did not regard her highly—even bordering on condescending!
This made Liang Shiyu feel extremely unpleasant.
It definitely shouldn’t be like this.
“Shiyu, let’s get our marriage license as soon as possible and have the wedding next month, okay?” Xie Linchuan suddenly said.
Liang Shiyu looked at Xie Linchuan, neither accepting nor rejecting, her expression clearly hesitant.
Xie Linchuan continued, “Don’t worry, I will arrange everything well and give you a grand wedding!”
“What if people gossip nonsense then?” Liang Shiyu muttered.
“That won’t happen; marrying me, you’ll be the legitimate Mrs. Xie. No one will gossip,” asserted Xie Linchuan.
What do you think?
