Chapter 119/120: Ditch Gu Qichen!

Chen Yu smiled. "You finally remembered."

Xia Yangyang looked incredulous. "But but"

In her memory, "Brother Yutou" looked nothing like Chen Yu. At the Saint Orphanage, many children clustered around Xia Yangyang, but one child always sat alone, refusing to participate or speak. The other children called him autistic. As a young child, Xia Yangyang, not understanding autism, often pestered him to play.

Chen Yu had short hair then, resembling a small "yutou" (a traditional Chinese hairstyle), so Xia Yangyang called him "Brother Yutou." When her mother fell ill, Xia Yangyang visited the orphanage less frequently, gradually forgetting the other children. However, she remembered Brother Yutou—a taciturn, fair-skinned child.

Xia Yangyang never imagined Brother Yutou could be Chen Yu. Their personalities were vastly different. Chen Yu was a talkative celebrity heartthrob. How could he be the quiet Brother Yutou from her memories?

Seeing Xia Yangyang's disbelief, Chen Yu said, "Can't you see? My fans call me 'Yutou.' The whole world knows my favorite food is chocolate. I even left my agency to sign with Starlight—all because of you."

Xia Yangyang remained dazed, struggling to believe him. Chen Yu tousled her hair. "It's okay. I can wait."

Overwhelmed by the evening's events, Xia Yangyang fell asleep instantly and woke the next afternoon. She checked her phone and saw three missed calls from Gu Qichen.

Her heart skipped a beat. The calls came shortly after the banquet. Why had he called?

Xia Yangyang feared Gu Qichen intended to divorce her. She realized their marriage was merely a ploy to pressure Shen Manbing. Now that the couple had reconciled, Xia Yangyang, the scapegoat, was likely next.

Xia Yangyang stared at her phone before finally summoning the courage. Even if a divorce was necessary, she would initiate it, refusing to be used again. She felt she had run long enough; whatever was meant to happen would.

Xia Yangyang bathed, put on a fresh dress, and carefully prepared herself. Standing before the mirror, she looked radiant. She was going to confront Gu Qichen.

Leaving her room, she saw Chen Yu watching TV—a report on Gu Qichen and Shen Manbing's engagement.

The entertainment host announced, "Surprise! Pop diva Shen Manbing's mysterious boyfriend is Shengyuan Group CEO Gu Qichen. Sources say they're vacationing at Lake Bay, and Shen Manbing apparently proposed. It seems the pop diva's big day is near! We'll keep you updated"

Seeing Xia Yangyang, Chen Yu quickly turned off the TV. Noticing her attire, he asked, "You're going out?"

Xia Yangyang hummed, heading for the exit.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to dump Gu Qichen!"
