At that time, she was deeply in love with Ye Feimo. The first betrayal cut her heart like a knife; for several days, she dared not look directly into Ye Feimo's eyes. Later, seeing that Ye Feimo hadn't noticed anything, she became bolder but still kept it from him, hiding things well each time.

Recalling those years, Han Bi's eyes were moist. She had struggled for two years to make a name for herself and found it very difficult; if no one supported her, who knew when she would have the chance to rise. And then to be shamelessly humiliated and beaten by fellow female stars from her company… how could she bear that

Now looking back at those times, if only she had gritted her teeth and endured it all without taking shortcuts, perhaps now she and Ye Feimo would be a pair of ideal lovers whom everyone envied. Han Bi regrets what happened then...

The journey was really tough then—trying to maintain the relationship while also managing her career, dealing with various difficulties and pressures. As an eighteen-year-old girl with fragile shoulders, how could she bear it all She always swallowed whatever pain came.

She didn't want to live that kind of life, so when choosing to betray Ye Feimo, she mentally prepared herself to let him go.

Even though there were many famous male artists back then who showed her affection and wanted a relationship with her, Han Bi rejected them all; she just couldn't bear leaving Ye Feimo.

Holding onto the hope that Ye Feimo wouldn’t find out one more day, she dragged things on. This only led to deeper wounds later.

Back then, she was very good to Ye Feimo. She feared poverty so much yet when his watch was lost, she used her entire savings to buy an identical replacement for him. The food and clothes she gave him were always better than what she had herself.

As soon as she had free time, she would go out to play with Ye Feimo and enjoy all the things that a young couple should enjoy.

She was a semi-famous actress dating a poor guy; if this were known by people in the industry, they might laugh at her. Yet, she didn't care about it and even thought of continuing to hide their relationship from him until she gained enough fame that she wouldn’t need to engage in such dirty transactions anymore. At that time, when she could choose what to do with her life, she would marry Ye Feimo and live happily ever after.

But who knew a single misstep led to more, until he left her decisively.

Han Bi thought back on the past, laughing and crying at once. She was truly naive then. Although she had struggled greatly and faced immense pressure, being with him made her happy. She felt as if she had shed off the glamorous facade of an actress and just existed as Ye Feimo's girlfriend.

Back then, how much she laughed!

Fei Mo didn't often smile, but sometimes when she insisted on seeing him laugh, he would.

If only they could stay that way forever...

Now, her career was successful and secure; she no longer needed to engage in dirty deals. She had enough money for a worry-free life and even if she didn't get married, she could afford luxury all her life.

However, where could she find back the happiness she lost

She had long lost her innocent heart.

And with it, her joyful heart.

Where should she start to find them back

"I regret it, Linda, I truly regret it," Han Bi said tearfully, hugging herself and burying her head in her knees. Her thick hair covered her face, tears glistening on her cheeks like a child abandoned by everyone.

"Han Bi, what are you saying"

"I regret it. I shouldn't have listened to your words back then…" Han Bi cried, thinking that if she had followed Cai Xiao Jing's advice instead of Linda’s and patiently waited for a couple more years, her life might have been entirely different today.

It would indeed be completely different.

If she had waited for another two or three years, she could still achieve success, gain recognition, and not lose Fei Mo.

Cheng Anya valued her very much back then. Perhaps Fei Mo and her relationship might have progressed smoothly, Cheng Anya would also like her, and she herself wouldn't be corrupted by desires and fame, looking entirely different from who she was before.

But can regret redeem everything

"Han Bi, are you blaming me" Linda's gaze flashed with a hint of coldness and disappointment. Han Bi silently sipped her drink; she didn't know whom to blame either. Linda said, "Han Bi, if it weren't for me back then, would you have been where you are today Could you have become an international superstar shining brightly on the global stage Probably not, you’d likely still be struggling as a second-tier artist. With your temper in those days, even reaching second tier was quite remarkable."

Han Bi gave a faint smile and faced Linda's accusation. She said, "If back then I hadn't listened to you, Cai Xiaojing might have made me famous; at the very least, Nie Mo being the president of An Ning Group, if I had stayed with him all along, whether or not I became famous wouldn’t matter to me."

Back then it was just a step away.

She didn't deny that because of Ye Nimo’s identity, she regretted her decision back then. But the heart that loved Ye Nimo, she never denied having it, and Cheng Anya thought she didn’t love him, but she simply didn’t understand.

Linda gave a cold laugh, "Han Bi, this is your mistake; you failed to recognize his identity. Who can you blame Look deep within yourself: if Ye Nimo wasn't the second son of the Ye Family and president of An Ning Group, would you still be so remorseful If Ye Nimo had nothing but a meager existence, would you follow him through hardships willingly Back then, you were already somewhat known. When you were together with him, did you ever worry about being exposed by the media and mocked Saying that you're dating a penniless young man—Han Bi, stop deceiving yourself; it's beyond your capabilities. Your regret now is simply because Ye Nimo is an heir to his family’s fortune, and you’re sorry for letting go of such an opportunity."

"Stop talking!" Han Bi raised her long hair and glared coldly at Linda. "For how many years have we been together You should know better than anyone how much I loved him. If not for your insistence that I make a name for myself before returning to him, if it weren't for the need to establish myself so Ye Furen would never accept me otherwise, and if you hadn’t asked me to keep him dangling on a string, I’d have returned to him in my second year. Back then there was no warmth; perhaps Nimo would have forgiven me long ago, and we'd already be together."

Linda's face darkened with fury at Han Bi’s accusations. She had been working hard for whom And now she was complaining about her. "Han Bi, are you blaming me All of this is your own choice. Yes, I made you lose Ye Nimo, but I also helped you achieve fame and success. Don’t forget: it was you who said back then that you wanted to make a name for yourself before coming back to him; it was you who declared that you would become an international superstar at any cost. That’s what you told me yourself. I’ve fulfilled your dream, but love must be pursued by oneself. Is it fair to blame me endlessly"

"Enough. I don’t want to argue about this anymore; I’m so tired. Let me be alone for a while." Han Bi raised her hand to signal Linda to stop talking; the more they discussed, the heavier she felt in her heart and the worse her mood became.ess; they can't tolerate the existence of another woman in their man's heart.Wen Ran wasn’t sure whether Ye Feimo loved Han Bi more or herself.
