“Your argument is compelling, yet you lack definitive evidence.”

Xia Yangyang merely smiled, seemingly not in a hurry to produce any evidence.

She articulated her thoughts clearly, “Ever since the incident involving the ‘Heart of the Kingdom’, I’ve felt a manipulative force acting behind the scenes, someone close to me. At first, I didn’t know what their aim was, but as various incidents unfolded, it became clear. They wanted me to be defamed, to be betrayed by everyone. So, I decided to play along and hit rock bottom to force them out. What better way to destroy someone than to let them taste success as a Best Actress only to then throw them into the mire?”

“So you think I targeted you because of my sister’s career? But don’t forget, Xia Yangyang, it was me who brought you into showbiz, let you play Cinderella, and made you a star adored by many. You say I aimed to ruin your reputation. Aren’t all my efforts in vain if so?”

Xia Yangyang calmly responded, “Because your aim was never to ruin my reputation, ruining my reputation was just a means to an end. Your ultimate goal was to destroy my marriage.”

Shen Shichuan laughed, “The more you talk, the more confused I get.” “Everything you’ve done was to undermine the trust and feelings between Gu Qichen and me. With the ‘Heart of the Kingdom’ incident, you knew he would intervene, and I’d suspect Shen Manbing. But Gu Qichen would not, causing friction between us. Indeed, you succeeded. The necklace instigated the biggest trust crisis we’d had since our marriage. But we reconciled in the end. So, you used that crazy fan to expose Shen Manbing and Gu Qichen’s past in another attempt to disrupt our relationship. I guess you have many more tricks up your sleeve. I have no idea what else you’ll do. You insisted on signing me and even confined me in the studio with a big advertising budget. It seems you just wanted me to stay by your side, monitoring my every move to seize any opportunity to act.”

Shen Shichuan seemed patient and even somewhat appreciative, “Your argument kinda makes sense, go on!”

“Since I don’t know what else you’d do, I’ve taken the initiative to launch the first strike, giving you the outcome you desire. Now that I have nothing left, what else can you be concerned about?”

Finally, Shen Shichuan applauded.

He said appreciatively, “Xia Yangyang, I didn’t expect you to analyze my tactics so meticulously. This makes me feel like a failure. True, I did everything you said. I arranged that charity dinner, I was the secret buyer of ‘Heart of the Kingdom’ five years ago. I bribed the host and the security chief. The ‘Heart of the Kingdom’ jewelry was placed in your bag by the security chief when he checked it. Oh, I forgot to tell you, that security chief is indeed a top magician, which is why he was able to plant it without anyone noticing.”

Xia Yangyang’s face slowly hardened.

Shen Shichuan continued, “You are right, the crazy fan incident was indeed an accident. However, I have been using public opinion later to attack you, to destroy you. Indeed, I was trying to stir up a crisis of trust between you and Ah Chen. Once trust is lost in a marriage, it won’t be long before everything collapses.”
