Staying at home for a few days, Liang Yin finally calmed down again.

 

Zhong Mingzhen had someone send over the equity shares transfer letter, but Liang Yin did not accept it.
As for the alimony she didn’t take even a single cent.

 

She really didn’t want it once she had said so.

 

In fact, she already has enough money.
Zhong Mingzhen has never treated her shabbily.
The money in her bank card never runs out and dividends will always be given to her at the end of the year.
She does not have the habit of squandering, so she uses it all for investment.
Just like when she bought the Jiayuan apartment that year and the profits from her investments over the years have long since doubled multiple times.
Even real estate, she already owns several both in the country and abroad.

 

She is not short of money.
No matter how much Zhong Mingzhen gave her, it was nothing more than the alteration numbers in her accounts.

 

These were not what she had wanted all along.

 

In addition to those she had packed herself, all the items that were originally in the mansion abroad were sent over too; clothes, jewelry and all sorts of stuff.

 

It was the butler who personally delivered them, and he cried sadly when he heard that she was no longer Mrs.Zhong after her divorce from Mr.Zhong.

” ”

 

He has taken care of the mansion for the past 5 years, yet it was her who has always taken care of him.

 

Mrs.
is a kind-hearted person, he doesn’t know why she just separated from the Mr.

 

Liang Yin didn’t know either, so she could only comfort the old butler and then said she could always see him again in the future.

 

The people from the Zhong family came in wave after wave and dealt with all sorts of matters, while Liang Yin coped with them and then waited patiently for everything to end.

 

Divorce is such a tedious matter.
In addition to ending a long relationship, there are even more minor details.

 

And during this time, Zhong Mingzhen did not appear again.

Today Zhong Jianian, the youngest uncle of the Zhong family, finally came back after a busy month.

 

Zhong Jianian has been in the entertainment industry over the years and has made lots of money.
He had invested in a variety show recently where a group of celebrities were cast off to an uninhabited island to let them fend for themselves, and he had also stayed with them for a while.

 

The show stressed on reality and the uninhabited island was really as it said to be, without even any network which was simply indescribably miserable.
After the first episode was over, he hurriedly patted his butt* and came back.

 

[T/N: 拍拍屁股 (Pāi pāi pìgu) – metaphor for not taking responsibility]

 

Once he was back, he started looking for Liang Yin.
However, Liang Yin was not in and he only found Zhong Mingzhen in the study.

 

“Mingzhen, where is Yinyin? Is she not home? Why did I hear that she is acting in movies again?” As he spoke, Zhong Jianian pushed open the door and walked straight in.

 

He has always been a special presence in the Zhong family and is treated like the fire and water with Father Zhong, who is his half-brother – born of the same father but different mothers.
He however has no ill feelings towards Zhong Mingzhen and Liang Yin is the closest person to him in the Zhong family.

 

He just had a phone conversation with Chen Hua’en outside.
Before he left for the island, Chen Hua’en told him that [Winter] will begin casting.
As he has invested a lot of money in this film, he hurriedly called him when he thought of it.
As a result, he was told that the female lead had been chosen, and it was actually Liang Yin.

 

He knew his brother.
Liang Yin was not allowed to act again when she married over at that time, so he didn’t understand why Liang Yin would resume.
Seeing that he had reached home, he didn’t continue to ask Chen Hua’en and thought he could simply look for the person to ask directly.

 

Chen Hua’en told him that Liang Yin had returned to the country and since she is back, she will naturally be in the Zhong family.

 

Who knew that after looking around, he didn’t see Liang Yin at all and the servant only said that Mrs.
did not come back at all …

 

Zhong Mingzhen was in the midst of handling business.
When he saw his youngest uncle walk in like this, there was no displeasure shown on his face but the pen in his hand stopped after hearing the last part of his words.

 

He has been busy with work these days which was no different from before, except the ring on his hand has been taken off.

 

“You don’t know? Yinyin is going to act?” Zhong Jianian looked at Zhong Mingzhen’s reaction in surprise.

 

Yinyin doesn’t seem like someone who would keep everyone in the dark and go acting secretly.

 

“Which film?” Zhong Mingzhen asked.

 

Feeling apprehensive, Zhong Jianian still responded, “[Winter], Chen Hua’en’s, seems to be with … Zhou Jianchen?”

 

A flash in his eyes as Zhong Mingzhen just remembered the scene where he sent her back that day and he finally had the answer in his heart.

 

“You really don’t know?” Zhong Jianian’s eyes widened.

 

Putting the documents in his hand aside, Zhong Mingzhen didn’t speak anymore.

 

Zhong Jianian had already walked over and pulled out a chair to sit down, “Eh no, it’s fine if Yinyin kept it from your father.
But there’s no way to keep it from you ah.
Not right, she can’t hide it from your father to go acting again … so what’s going on? Where’s Yinyin? Where is she, how come Wu Ma* and the others said they have not seen her … eh, what is this?”

 

[T/N: 妈 (Mā) – except mother, this is also a form of address for middle-aged woman or old maidservant]

While Zhong Jianian was talking, he got a quick glance at the two small booklets beside Zhong Mingzhen’s right hand and the top one hugely written with the words ‘Divorce Certificate’.

 

Reaching out his hand to take it, Zhong Jianian flipped it open and his face changed, “You divorced Yinyin? !”

 

Zhong Mingzhen was still busy and didn’t speak.

 

Yet Zhong Jianian continued to ask, “Why, why are you both divorcing?”

 

Zhong Mingzhen finally opened his mouth, “There is no reason.
She should have her own life.”

 

“You bullshit!” Zhong Jianian, however, burst out in anger.

 

Raising his head, Zhong Mingzhen’s gaze was serenely deep.

 

Zhong Jianian came back to his senses instantly, “You mean the divorce was brought up by Yinyin?”

 

Zhong Mingzhen did not answer.

 

“Why did she suggest a divorce? You agreed when she suggested a divorce?” Zhong Jianian was still in shock.

 

Zhong Mingzhen was silent for a long while and he still explained, “The marriage was hasty and she was still young then.
Perhaps she is a little tired of it after so many years.”

 

“What can she be tired of? ! Don’t you know how much she likes you!” Zhong Jianian was simply speechless.

 

Listening to his words, Zhong Mingzhen paused again.

 

“Don’t tell me you don’t know again?” Zhong Jianian could not believe it.

 

Zhong Mingzhen just looked at him.

 

Zhong Jianian was really angry.
He thought this was something that anyone could see, but as it happened he couldn’t see it!

 

“Mingzhen, are you blind or stupid ah? The first time Chen Hua’en came to our house, he could see clearly that Yinyin liked you, instead you can’t plainly see it after all these years! Do you know why Chen Hua’en first approached Yinyin to act? That was because he saw the love for you in Yinyin’s eyes!” He was infuriated to death since that was how obvious it was.

 

Zhong Mingzhen was stunned as he listened.

 

Chen Hua’en came to the house that year and chose Liang Yin after much consideration.
Yet she hesitated and turned her head to look at him.
He could see her meaning and so he said, if you like it then just go act.
At that time, he could see that she liked acting but beyond that, there was nothing else.

 

She was young then, and just habitually sought his help …

 

“Also, why do you think Yinyin wants to act? She did it because of you! At that time, you loved watching movies and would stay in the home theater when you had nothing to do.
Knowing that you liked it, she thought of herself acting in the movies for you to watch! But I doubt you’ve seen it at all!”

 

Zhong Jianian was utterly agitated, “As long as you have seen it, you ought to surely understand her feelings! Chen Hua’en had said he had filmed a young girl’s unrequited love in it!”

“Ah! I’m really infuriated to death by you! Even a person as stupid as me can see it, but a smart person like you actually are not able to tell … I damn thought that you would have long understood her feelings all these years!”

 

After Zhong Jianian finished, he apparently didn’t want to say more.
Picking up the hat that he just took off, he walked out in a rage.

 

Zhong Mingzhen had nothing to say since his youngest uncle’s words had completely made him unable to react.

 

He never thought Liang Yin would like himself.
He has regarded her as a younger sister and she only treats him as an older brother.
For so many years, she has indeed never talked about it.

 

But, is she someone who speaks easily?

 

Zhong Jianian rushed in again and placed the tablet in his hand in front of the table before saying, “Watch it yourself!”

 

A movie was paused on the screen.
It was Liang Yin’s first film [Where’s Spring], and Zhong Jianian had already dragged the play button on the scroll-bar to the end.

 

Zhong Mingzhen tapped on it and Liang Yin’s face was revealed.

 

She was only 17 at that time with a face full of youthfulness.
Sitting sideways on the bow of the boat with two braids, there was a shy smile on her face.

 

The voice-over asked: Do you like him a lot?

 

She nodded with a little blush on her face.

 

The voice-over asked again: Then what are you willing to do for him?

 

She lowered her head, as if pondering over when she soon looked up again and replied with a smile: I am willing to do anything for him.

 

The voice-over asked again: Does he know you like him?

 

She shook her head and dropped her smile.

 

The voice-over then said: Then why don’t you tell him?

 

Lowering her head, she was somewhat silent: He has someone he likes.

 

The voice-over asked again: So how long will you like him?

 

She hesitated, then looked up and smiled again, which was a determined smile — I will like him until I can’t like him anymore.

 

The movie ended here, as if it came to an abrupt end but with a long lingering effect.
Holding the tablet, Zhong Mingzhen did not move for a long time.

 

Zhong Jianian looked at him and said, “These were not script lines.
The filming had completed at that time.
Chen Hua’en saw her sitting by the boat and went over, and then there was this dialogue.
He later thought it was good and put it at the end of the movie.
“

 

After a pause, he then said, “You should be able to see who she was talking about.”

Zhong Mingzhen didn’t speak.
He no longer knew what else to say.

 

He did like watching movies at that time, yet he really had never before watched a movie of hers.

 

“It was also precisely because of you that she gave up acting later! You don’t even know how much she likes acting afterwards, but in order to marry you, she just stopped acting as she said so and just retired from acting.
You know she was already the Film Empress at that time! Less than half of her lifetime, she has lived and died for you, yet you don’t even realize it!” Zhong Jianian wished the iron could turn straight into steel.

 

[T/N: 恨铁不成钢 (Hèn tiě bùchéng gāng) – metaphors for feeling resentful towards somebody for failing to meet expectations and impatient to see improvement]

 

Zhong Mingzhen did not respond.

 

Zhong Jianian left again soon after.
Zhong Mingzhen dragged the scroll-bar to watch it again and it happened to stop at the last two sentences.

 

— So how long will you like him?

 

—  I will like him until I can’t like him anymore.

 

Zhong Mingzhen felt a sudden pain which gradually spread all over his body.

 

 

 

**********

 

 

 

The marriage certificate that was tossed aside on the table happened to have flipped open revealing the picture of them together.

 

On it, his expression was indifferent while she, however, was smiling sweetly.

 

 

 

**********

 

 

 

Not knowing how long later, Zhong Mingzhen finally picked up his cellphone and dialed Zhong Jianian’s number.

 

“If Yinyin likes to act, you just invest for her in the future.”

 

His voice was inexplicably hoarse.

She eventually still didn’t take what he gave her.
