Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star
Chapter 59: The Breakup

The first one who was unsatisfied and uncomfortable was, of course, Shen Mozhen.

Shen Mozhen only had 8,000 fans on her Wei Bo account. She was an aloof person and rarely used her Wei Bo account. The only reason why she had so many fans was because of her identity as Tang Tu’s girlfriend.

She saw all the pings from the fans, and she also checked on Wei Bo to see how Tang Tu was interacting with Princess Man. She knew Tang Tu’s personality was very different from her; Tang Tu liked to browse Wei Bo and repost random things, but he had never reposted one’s Wei Bo so much.

A fan commented under Shen Mozhen’s Wei Bo to ask if she knew who Princess Man was, for they were both in the Capital City Music University.

Princess Man — Liu Man.

Shen Mozhen suddenly remembered the girl who made her feel so endangered.

She was too anxious that she couldn’t resist but called Tang Tu.

The first time she called, Tang Tu was still filming. Shen Mozhen sent a WeChat message to him, but he didn’t reply either.

The second time she called, Tang Tu’s assistant saw Tang Tu’s phone ringing. When Tang Tu finished his scene, his assistant told him that, but Tang Tu didn’t call back.

The third time she called was at dinner. Tang Tu was having takeout with other people at the cast, and when he received her call, he carried his takeout to the corner and picked up the call.

“Didn’t I say not to contact me while I’m working?” Tang Tu sounded very impatient.

Ever since they knew each other, Tang Tu told her he didn’t like annoying girls. He didn’t want to be disturbed when he practiced his instruments and when he filmed. Shen Mozhen, at that time, considered this not a problem for her. She was an independent and smart girl, and she also wanted to have some personal space in the relationship.

So, after Tang Tu came to Shanghai for the movie, he cut off all his connections with Shen Mozhen and never called her or texted her.

Shen Mozhen was the one who, during evenings, always carefully texted him, asking if he had dinner yet or if he slept well. Sometimes Tang Tu would reply to her, but sometimes he would forget to check on her because he was memorizing his scripts. When he remembered to check on her, it would be the next day, and he would be too lazy to reply to her.

He had never stood in Shen Mozhen’s perspective, so he did not know how hurt she would be from his actions. Sometimes, being ignored unintentionally is scarier than being purposely left out.

Shen Mozhen was not an idiot. From the start of this relationship, she knew Tang Tu didn’t like her that much. If one fell in love with another person, how would he forget to reply to her texts and not pick up her calls? Tang Tu always had an excuse, such as being too busy. But no matter how busy he was, he would have time for meals and toilet breaks. Was it that hard to send over just a text?

In the call, Shen Mozhen asked Tang Tu,

“Why did you not reply to my WeChat messages?”

“The director is trying to follow up with the agenda, so everyone’s very busy, including me. I don’t have the time to keep on checking my WeChat,” Tang Tu was still finding excuses for himself, “Oh, right, when you called, I was still filming and I didn’t know.”

“Ha. You don’t have the time to respond to my messages, but you do have the time to drop likes on someone else’s Wei Bo,” Shen Mozhen’s voice was a bit light when she said this, and it sounded a little nasal as if she was going to cry.

But Tang Tu didn’t care and became the interrogator instead, “You saw the comments on Wei Bo? Those are all nonsense from bored people, and you take them seriously?”

Normally, Shen Mozhen, who was sensible and considerate, would’ve apologized at this time and shown her tolerance and willingness to compromise.

But now she was tired. She found that she was always blindly pleasing Tang Tu but did not get any affection in return like she expected. Tang Tu was still full of himself, even in front of her. To him, she was like a pet. Only to play occasionally with when he remembered. But after all, pets were just pets. There were always more important people and things than her. When Tang Tu gets busy, he just forgets about her completely.

Shen Mozhen was born in a musical family. Her father’s side of the relatives were all musicians. She had the musical talent among her generation in her family. She was also her parents’ treasured baby, so she always received the best education, allowing her to have great elegance and appearance.

She had her pride and her limits.

And Tang Tu had provoked her limits countless of times already.

So, why should she continue to make compromises and ask for a change from a man who hasn’t liked her since the beginning?

Four years. They had known each other for four whole years. But had Tang Tu changed at all? Was he willing to change for her?

People’s nature was hard to change.

Shen Mozhen reflected.

She knew the answer in her heart. She had realized it for a long time now, but she didn’t want to face reality before.

“Tang Tu, let’s break up.”

Tang Tu, who thought his life is going just fine, couldn’t even dream that he would get dumped one day, by his first girlfriend. After Shen Mozhen said she wanted to break up, Tang Tu was stunned for a long time. Shen Mozhen didn’t speak anymore, and the two of them just remained still as they listened to each other’s breathing.

After a few moments of silence, Tang Tu asked her, “Did you think it carefully?”

“Yes, I know exactly what I said,” Shen Mozhen was acting impulsively when she broke up with Tang Tu, but Tang Tu’s neglect had always been a problem in their relationship.

Therefore, Shen Mozhen had no regrets, she had many admirers, and many were suitable for her. Maybe they were not as good as Tang Tu, but at least they appreciated her. Why should she spend all her energy on someone who didn’t even like her? Before, she was foolish, so she infatuated with Tang Tu for four years. But now it was finally time for her to wake up.

“Fine, if you want to break up, then we shall break up,” Tang Tu’s voice was fairly calm, but on the inside, he was very frustrated.

Tang Tu and Shen Mozhen had been friends for four years, and they had been a couple for two months. He would be lying if he said He had no feelings for Shen Mozhen. Technically speaking, Shen Mozhen could be regarded as his first love, so he felt uncomfortable inside that their relationship ended so hastily.

However, he could still calmly say to Shen Mozhen, “I’m filming now. You know how important this movie is to me and my career. If the news of our breakup gets announced at this time, it will have a great impact on both me and the crew.”

“I understand what you mean. I will keep the matter of our breakup confidential for the time being. You can announce it whenever you want. I am grateful that you announced our relationship on Weibo as soon as we confirmed it, so I will not try to cause you trouble now.”

Shen Mozhen was still very considerate when it came to Tang Tu. Both of them were sane and mature people. They hit it off when they decided to get together, so they also didn’t hesitate when they decided to break up.

That night, Shen Mozhen finally shed the tears she had been holding in, while Tang Tu tossed and turned for the night, unable to fall asleep.
