Nobody knew that Chen Shiyu had quietly retired due to a family tragedy, and had chosen America as her retreat location.
Xu Yixue lived in the same city in America as Chen Shiyu, and by an odd twist of fate, they were even neighbors in the same district.
After her retirement, Chen Shiyu altered her appearance and no longer carried the enchanting allure she had on stage. She seemed just like the girl next door. Xu Yixue, whose family was in the entertainment industry, had met Chen Shiyu a few times and was thus able to recognize her at a glance.
Soon after, Xu Yixue and Chen Shiyu became friends, often helping each other in a foreign land. Chen Shiyu grew very fond of Xu Yixue's beloved daughter, Tongtong, and openly said that if she could have such a sweet and adorable daughter, perhaps she wouldn't have chosen to abruptly leave the entertainment industry due to emotional issues.
Xu Yixue shared this sentiment.
