After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

"Boss Gu, are you going back to the company?"

Gu Yichen sat in the back seat with the divorce agreement placed on the seat beside him. It was the biggest joke of his life in the past six months.

He fixed his eyes on Xia Shu's figure chasing him in the rearview mirror, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go back to the company first."

In the rearview mirror, Xia Shu was held down by the bodyguards who had chased after her.

She struggled to shake off the bodyguard's hand and tried to chase the car, but she fell down because of her leg injury after running a few steps.

The car turned a corner and Gu Yichen could no longer see her in the rearview mirror.

The car drove steadily and slowly through the street, and the tall plane trees on the roadside flashed past the car window.

Gu Yichen drooped his eyelashes slightly, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and rested.

While he was still half asleep, the driver called him, "Mr. Gu, we're here."

Gu Yichen didn’t know how long he had slept. When he opened his eyes and looked at the time, it was already half past eleven.

He got out of the car, walked straight to the company, and took the president's special elevator all the way to the president's office.

He took out the recorder that had been kept in the drawer.

Gu Yichen stroked the recorder with his fingers, squinted his eyes, and pressed the play button.

The voice of Xia Shu, whom he was very familiar with, rang out from the player:

"Director Cai, as long as you give me the lead role, I will do anything you ask me to do."

"Xu Xinzhu doesn't know what's good for her, but I'm different. Director Cai, you can ask me to serve you in any way you want, and I will make sure you feel comfortable."

"..."

Just by listening to the tone of her voice, Gu Yichen could feel Xia Shu's coquettish and seductive manner at that time.

Xia Shu lied to him again.

The so-called forced drinking, the so-called Cai Guoxiong threatened her...

all fake.

This woman doesn't tell the truth!

Gu Yichen's eyes were gloomy under his long eyelashes. He clenched the recorder, suddenly cut off the recording, and threw it heavily into the drawer.

He opened his laptop, logged into Weibo, and checked the latest developments online.

As expected, the conversation between Xia Shu and Cai Guoxiong four years ago was made public on the Internet by Lin Qingran, and public opinion immediately reversed.

Xia Shu’s fans were immediately outraged, passers-by turned against her, and netizens started to curse Xia Shu.

Xia Shu's rival company took advantage of this opportunity to step forward and expose Xia Shu's past scandals that seemed to be true.

The so-called national goddess and international film queen fell from the altar overnight.

All this was completely expected.

Gu Yichen no longer had any intention of clearing Xia Shu's name.

What else can he do now?

The collapse of a building never happens overnight.

He only hated himself for having misjudged the person and mistaking a fish eye for a pearl.

However, for Xia Shu, he has been using all means to oppose Lin Qingran.

Gu Yichen suddenly felt anxious.

Lin Qingran had warned him sternly before not to try to throw dirty water on Xu Xinzhu, but he did it anyway.

He didn't feel anything at the beginning, but now he realizes that he was extremely wrong. Because of this, he became a complete scum in Lin Qingran's eyes, a villain who would do anything to achieve his goals.

Having known Lin Qingran for so many years, he already knew how the other person hated evil and had a strong hatred for evil.

But he still challenged her bottom line again and again...

Gu Yichen clenched his palms, and the feeling of anxiety in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He quickly opened the drawer again, dug out the car keys, stood up, and walked out in two steps.

There are some things he still needs to explain to Lin Qingran.

Gu Yichen drove fast all the way to the bottom of Ran Yi Building, and unexpectedly ran into her who had just returned from outside.

"Lin Qingran!"

Gu Yichen hurriedly chased after him.

"I was wrong about Xia Shu. I shouldn't have done that. I can apologize to Xu Xinzhu. I will delete all the content that slandered her online. I'm sorry, Lin Qingran, I was too impatient, so I resorted to unscrupulous means."

Lin Qingran was stunned.

She turned to look at Gu Yichen who appeared out of nowhere, slightly surprised, "What are you doing?"

Gu Yichen looked at her with deep eyes, "Lin Qingran, I want to apologize to you."

"apologize?"

Lin Qingran glanced at the strange looks that the people passing by gave them, and thought for a moment, "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it somewhere else."

She walked straight into the elevator.

Gu Yichen followed with big strides.

After entering the elevator, Lin Qingran pressed the floor number and raised her eyelids indifferently, "Are you here to persuade me to delete the recording again?"

She never thought that Gu Yichen would ever give in. Even if he did, it would probably be just a brief show of goodwill before exchanging conditions.

Just like she never thought that Gu Yichen could give up Xia Shu.

"I'm not." Gu Yichen explained hastily, "Lin Qingran, I'm not here for Xia Shu this time."

Lin Qingran raised her eyebrows slightly, "Really? Then why did you come here?"

The elevator door opened, and Gu Yichen walked out behind her, "Lin Qingran, aren't you curious why I fell in love with Xia Shu at first sight?"

Lin Qingran smiled faintly, "She understands men's hearts better than I do."

She opened the office door, went in, and sat down on the sofa.

Gu Yichen sat opposite her and said, "The first time I met Xia Shu was not when she came to Jingchen half a year ago, but six years ago..."

He gave a complete account of what had happened to him at sea six years previously.

Lin Qingran's beautiful eyes trembled slightly, and when she heard Gu Yichen say, "Xia Shu was the first one to jump off the deck and swam towards me desperately," her expression obviously froze for a moment.

"Gu Yichen, how can you be sure that the person who saved you was definitely Xia Shu?"

"I didn't see her face clearly, but I saw the blue gemstone necklace on her neck clearly." Gu Yichen explained, "I only saw Xia Shu wearing that necklace. I have never seen a second one besides her."

"Xia Shu was filming on the sea at the time, and she saved me."

It was a stormy day, the sky above the sea was gloomy, and the waves were roaring like wild beasts. Miraculously, a teenage girl dared to jump into the sea to save a complete stranger.

This also made him always feel that the fate between him and Xia Shu was very magical.

In the past, Gu Yichen never told Lin Qingran about these things, and there was no suitable opportunity to mention them.

After hearing what he said, Lin Qingran stood up and picked up an opened file bag from the desk.

She came over with a file bag, took out a photo from it, and handed it to Gu Yichen, "Is this the sapphire necklace you mentioned?"

Gu Yichen took the photo, took a look at it, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

In the photo, the sapphire necklace is placed in a display cabinet. Although the photo was taken through a layer of glass, the structural design of the entire necklace is fully displayed, and the patterns of the sapphire cutting are clearly visible.

In the upper left corner of the photo, there is a line of words:

Lot 23: Heart of the Sea Necklace.
