Chapter 2224 - 2227: Turtle Egg, I’m Breaking Up with You!

"Also, after you get married, don’t let Maimai show up in public anymore."

Sheng Sheng jogged over, pondering for a moment: "Uncle Ling, is something wrong?"

"It’s nothing, actually, I don’t like Maimai being mixed up in the entertainment circle, but I can’t control her stubborn nature," Ling Yin patted his shoulder with a heavy heart: "It’s up to you, after the wedding, let her settle down and be a full-time wife."

"But Maimai might not like that kind of life."

He knew very well the temperament of the girl he was interested in. She was actually as headstrong as Qingqing, once determined, she wouldn’t be swayed even if nine oxen tried to pull her back.

She and Qingqing, one wanted a thriving life in the entertainment circle; the other wanted a life of iron and blood in a militarized world.

"Once a woman has a husband and children, her focus naturally shifts, so it’s up to you on how you guide her."

Sheng Sheng went home alone, looking at the rising sun in the east, feeling a headache. This was indeed a daunting task, how to guide her? Maimai doesn’t even want to have children, if she finds out that she can’t act anymore after marriage, she might say goodbye to him immediately.

He hesitated in his heart, not agreeing with his father-in-law’s viewpoint.

In his perspective, he would rather have Maimai be a happy bird, to freely fly in whichever sky she desires, and he would support that sky for her, as long as she is happy, that’s all that matters.

But this perspective was shaken due to the pressure from his father-in-law, along with something that happened afterward.

This is what happened: Maimai had a schedule, but she fainted on-site, and he wasn’t aware of it until three days later when he got the news, by then she was already lively and unaffected.

Upon further investigation, Sheng Sheng found that she was overworked, under great stress, and seriously anemic.

In a fit of anger, Sheng Sheng cut off all her work and arranged for a doctor to check her health. The doctor also said that her usual workload was too much, needing rest and recuperation. Following the doctor’s advice, he granted Maimai a six-month leave, and to prevent her from being idle, specially enrolled in a six-month advancement course for her, with not many classes, only two per week, so she could rest properly.

However, Maimai was not willing, pestering him to revoke this decision. She had her eyes set on a new film, wanting to be its female lead, hoping the company could help her secure it.

Naturally, Sheng Sheng refused to agree.

Due to this minor spark, things escalated, and Maimai ignored him for several days, directly going into a cold war.

During those days, Sheng Sheng cracked his brain trying to cheer her up, even halting Wenqing’s work to have him accompany his sister, but it all proved ineffective. Maimai was unfazed by soft or hard tactics, saying she wouldn’t acknowledge him, meant she absolutely wouldn’t, giving face to no one, forcing him to compromise.

Sheng Sheng was initially someone who dealt with soft over hard tactics, this time for her health’s sake, how could he allow her to throw a tantrum and cave in easily? Even if she shouted "Turtle egg" louder than the heavens, he resolutely refused to change his stance!

"Turtle egg, I want to break up with you!" Maimai lashed out, "Then terminate our contract, I’ll sign with another company, they’ll definitely be lining up for me!"

Sheng Sheng turned pale with anger: "Say it again for me! You want to what with me?"

Maimai lifted her chin: "I, Ling Maimai, want to break up with you!" Saying that, she directly took out her phone and declared on Twitter: [From this moment on, I am parting ways with Gu ZhiSheng, parting ways with Precious Heart Group, from now on, may we each be well.]
