Dream Reading

Every time my superstar husband is rumored to have an affair, he compensates me with a diamond ring. In the three years we've been married, the diamond rings I've received are enough to hold an exhibition.
He always says to me, "It's necessary for work, please understand."
Looking at the provocative messages sent by the actresses involved in these rumors on my phone, I decided to let go.
But after I left the divorce papers and boarded a flight to the United States, my husband went mad in front of all the media.

99 Rumors of the Superstar Husband

At the break of dawn the next day, I began to pack, preparing to gradually erase every trace of myself from this home.


Just as I packed the last piece of clothing into the suitcase, Shen Yanqing came home reeking of alcohol.


With sharp eyes, I spotted the red lipstick mark imprinted on his white shirt.


It was probably intentionally left by Liang Mei.


If it had been before, when I was the devoted wife and manager, I would have promptly removed the evidence, afraid it would impact his entertainment career.


Even if gossip about him would spread the next day, rendering my efforts in vain.


Shen Yanqing was prepared to hear my nagging, but surprisingly, I didn't say a word this time, which caught him off guard.


Whenever he came home, I would promptly take his bag, set his slippers, prepare everything for him.


The room was so silent you could hear a pin drop, maybe because the silence lasted too long, Shen Yanqing took the initiative to explain:


"Liang Mei and I are just ordinary colleagues, the media is just sensationalizing, don't think too much."


This was the first time he took the initiative to explain to me.


Only then did he notice the closed suitcase in my hand, and he was stunned: "Why are you packing, are you going on a business trip?"


I gave a brief "hmm" and continued to bury my head in placing the clothes inside.


Upon hearing my response, Shen Yanqing inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief, raised a smiling face, and pulled out a luxury store bag from behind to hand to me.


"Today is your birthday, happy birthday, this is my gift to you, thank you for your hard work all these years."


It was a Cartier necklace, very simple in design, the lowest price range style.


He fastened the necklace around my neck and gently asked if I liked it.


I even wondered if there was something wrong with my ears, after three years of marriage he never remembered my birthday, yet this time he not only remembered but also bought me a gift?


But when my peripheral vision caught sight of the complimentary tag stuck on the bag, I suddenly realized.


It turned out the gift he gave me was just a bonus for reaching a certain spending limit with Liang Mei.


And he seemed to forget, I already had several identical ones in my jewelry box.


I remained silent, just stared at him intently in the mirror.


"Oh, right, I wanted to discuss something with you, the annual award ceremony is approaching, could you let Liang Mei have that prime-time drama resource you have? She's in a developing stage, really needs a good series to lay her foundation, you have so many resources, you wouldn't miss just this one, would you?"


He said this while cautiously observing my expression.


So that's how it is, I silently mocked myself, even such complimentary gifts had been secretly priced by him.


Don't just say one prime-time drama, even if it's all the scripts I have and the place of Mrs. Shen, I could give it all up, because tomorrow, I'm leaving.


Going to a place where he will never find me again.
