Chapter 232 This Star Will Never Die

"……What do you mean?"

He Tingxuan's voice suddenly changed, becoming cold and sharp with an unconscious tension.

Shi Jing curled his lips in a mocking smile: "The literal meaning."

"..." He Tingxuan did not speak.

Shi Jing: "Su Ying is next to you, isn't she?"

"..." He Tingxuan did not answer.

Shi Jing kissed Zhu Jinzhao on the cheek and said with a half-smile, "He Tingxuan, a man can be henpecked, but he absolutely cannot be henpecked while wearing countless green hats. You are good-looking and successful in your career, why demean yourself like this?"

He Tingxuan took a deep breath on the phone and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "What exactly do you mean?"

"Hmph," Shi Jing chuckled meaningfully, "You should ask Su Ying that. Ask Su Ying how many men she brought to your new house to have sex while you were abroad."

"If I remember correctly, there were three in total? Two male actors from the same production team, and one well-known director in the film industry."

"Beep, beep, beep—"

When the mirror responded, all it heard was the busy tone of the call being disconnected.

"Shi Jing." Zhu Jinzhao grabbed Shi Jing's arm, her eyes wide with horror. "Is what you just said true? Su Ying really brought those men back to her and He Tingxuan's new house?"

Shi Jing turned off her phone, and her tone immediately softened: "Chao Chao, although I hate Su Ying, she is a girl after all. I would never deliberately make up these rumors to slander her."

"The paparazzi had already photographed her bringing those men home, and they had threatened her with the photos many times. She had spent at least nine million to shut them up."

"Huh—" Zhu Jinzhao gasped in shock, his mouth agape. "My God... Has Su Ying gone mad?!"

Shi Jing shook his head: "Su Ying has already lost herself in the evil desires of the entertainment industry. Whether she's crazy or not, even she herself may not be able to tell."

"Sigh..." Zhu Jinzhao sighed, her kneeling body suddenly collapsing. "She has clearly suffered a lot to get to where she is today, but why doesn't she know how to cherish it?"

Shi Jing smiled and patted her head: "Because she's restless."

"Chaochao, let's not follow her example."

Zhu Jinzhao nodded obediently and replied, "Mmm!"

"Smack!"

A glass vase shattered tragically at Su Ying's feet. Su Ying shrank back in fear, trying to dodge to the side, but shards of glass still flew onto her calves, leaving several bright red streaks on her fair skin.

"Speak!!" He Tingxuan glared at her with red eyes, roaring almost in despair, "Su Ying, say something!!"

"Ting, Tingxuan..." Su Ying cautiously reached out her hand, wanting to touch He Tingxuan but not daring to, and could only futilely and weakly stretch her hand out in mid-air.

"Don't call me!!" He Tingxuan clenched his fists so tightly that his whole body trembled violently. "Don't call my name!!!"

“I…” Su Ying was terrified by his furious appearance, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam.

He Tingxuan pointed at her and asked in a cold voice, "Su Ying, is what Shi Jing said true? Did you bring those men back to our new house?!"

Su Ying wiped away her tears and stammered, "Tingxuan, you...you have to let me explain..."

He Tingxuan: "Explain yourself! Didn't I give you a chance to explain?!"

"I..." Su Ying sobbed, unable to utter a complete sentence.

He Tingxuan grabbed a handful of hair in frustration, almost grinding his teeth to powder before forcing himself to calm down temporarily.

“Su Ying, I’m giving you a chance to explain. You can clear up all your grievances.”

Su Ying shakily withdrew her hand and weakly murmured "Mmm".

He Tingxuan: "Did you cheat on me? Did you sleep around with those men?"

"I..." Su Ying unconsciously scratched her hands, until the back of her hands was red and raw.

He Tingxuan glanced at her swollen hand and impatiently shouted, "Speak!"

"I...I..." Su Ying's body trembled violently, unable to answer the first question.

He Tingxuan's eyes were bloodshot as he forced himself to wait ten seconds. After ten seconds, she still didn't offer an explanation, and He Tingxuan instantly knew the answer in his heart.

"Su Ying—" He closed his eyes in anguish, two streams of hot tears trembling as they rolled down his cheeks, calling out Su Ying's name one last time.

"Go to hell."

He left behind this resentful and helpless curse, then turned and left his and Su Ying's new home.

"...Tingxuan!!"

Su Ying froze for a few seconds before hurriedly chasing after him.

"Tingxuan, it's not like that! It's not what you think!" She chased after He Tingxuan barefoot, crying as she said, "Tingxuan, please don't go! Stay and let me explain!"

He Tingxuan didn't even bother to look at her.

She stretched out her hand, trying to grab He Tingxuan: "Tingxuan, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please let me explain?"

He Tingxuan strode forward with his head down, not wanting to hear a single word she said.

She relentlessly chased after him, but seeing that she was about to fall behind He Tingxuan, she could only grit her teeth and take bigger steps. Unexpectedly, there was a sharp and hard stone on the sidewalk in the community. She stepped on it without paying attention, and her foot was immediately cut with blood.

"ah!!"

She let out a piercing scream and fell to the ground in a sorry state.

He Tingxuan, who was walking ahead, finally stopped.

"Tingxuan..." She clutched her injured right foot and pitifully reached out her hand to He Tingxuan, "Tingxuan, I stepped on a stone, my foot hurts so much."

"..."

He Tingxuan didn't say anything, but turned and walked towards Su Ying.

Su Ying's heart skipped a beat, and a smile immediately appeared on her face: "Tingxuan, my foot is bleeding a lot, it hurts so much."

He Tingxuan stood in front of her and clearly saw the blood on the soles of her feet, but he could no longer feel any pity in his heart.

"That's fine." He stood with his back to the light, his entire face covered in shadow.

"I'll consider all the love and time I've spent these past few years wasted. From now on, we're strangers."

"..." Su Ying was stunned.

A seemingly casual remark struck Su Ying like a massive boulder crashing down on her head.

Su Ying's mind went blank; all her consciousness and reason were smashed to ashes by the boulder.

She stared blankly at He Tingxuan, and before she could ask whether his words were true or false, He Tingxuan left right before her eyes.

The lonely and desperate figure walked further and further away under the dim streetlights, disappearing completely from Su Ying's life in just a few seconds.

They arrived so dazzling and radiant, but left like a star whose light had been extinguished.

From then on, it never lit up again.
