Shan Ling: âIâll get the staff to pick you up. Are you coming?â
Luo Xingguang: âWhere is she?â
Song Yaoyao directly ignored Luo Xingguang and replied to Shan Ling with a meme.
YaoyaoLovesGege: â[WavingAGlowStick·jpg] No, Iâm here with my Gege, so I wonât go backstage. Itâs the last episode, good luck!â
Backstage, Shan Ling who received this message was stunned.
When she realized who the âGegeâ that Song Yaoyao was referring to was, she was shocked.
âOh my god⦠Mr. Huo is here?â
Yu Bai, who was fixing her hair, paused and turned to Shan Ling. âSister Shan Ling, what are you talking about?â
âYaoyao said it, weâll find out later.â
Shan Ling waved her phone and asked the makeup artist to continue putting on her makeup.
Luo Xingguang had a good base to work with, so he only had light makeup on. His hair was tied up and he was playing with his phone in his chair. Crossing one leg over the other and swinging it gently, he asked, âAre you serious?â
âWhat? Yaoyao didnât reply to you?â
Shan Ling opened her eyes and was amused.
Luo Xingguang rolled his eyes. âThat darn girl, I treated her so well for nothing!â
âThatâs different. She brought her boyfriend today⦠Oh, no, I mean her fiancé. If she chats with you and he misunderstands, what will she do if he gets jealous? Itâs normal to not reply to you. Just face reality! This is lifeâ¦â
âTch⦠Whatever. Do you think I like Song Yaoyao? Unless the sky falls down.â Luo Xingguang rolled his eyes. âI like gentle and cute girls. What does Song Yaoyao, have?â
Only that guy in Huo Manor treated her like a treasure.
Yu Bai was slightly unhappy when the two of them talked as if there was no one else around.
When he heard this, he suddenly disagreed, âNo, I think Teacher Song is very beautiful and cute. She is also very capable. A girl like her should be the goddess in the hearts of many boys, right?â
âOh? You treat her like a goddess?â Luo Xingguang seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly, he pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows as he questioned him.
âOf course.â Yu Bai didnât even think about it.
Here we go againâ¦
Shan Ling shook her head speechlessly. âIâll go out first. You guys can chat slowly.â
At this moment, she began to envy Yang Fan. He was the one who had the foresight to hide out early so that he would not have to face such a troublesome scene.
Luo Xingguang shrugged. âIs that so? Then I hope you can keep it up.â
Those who treated Song Yaoyao as a goddess had not been beaten up by Song Yaoyao.
Or⦠they had not been beaten up enough.
Someone like him⦠He would never treat Song Yaoyao as a goddess. He was not blind.
If he was with her, every word of disagreement would make her angry, and he would be beaten up every day! If such a thing were to be reported to the police, he would never be able to hold his head up. How embarrassing would that be?
Thinking of this, Luo Xingguang could not help but sigh, stand up, and walk away unsteadily.
That last glance left Yu Bai baffled.
He did not know that Luo Xingguang had just thought of Huo Yunque.
Life must be tough for Mr. Huo; eliminating evil for the people, and sacrificing oneself for the greater good.
Shan Ling, who had gone out to hide from the drama, had subconsciously wandered to the front of the stage. She sent a message to Song Yaoyao.
Shan Ling: âYaoyao, where are you?â
At the same time, she raised her hand and waved.
At this time, more than half of the audience had already arrived. When they saw Shan Ling they thought that she was greeting everyone and started waving excitedly.
Song Yaoyao was among them.
Shan Ling was stunned. She felt bitter in her heart.
Shan Ling: âForget it, letâs meet again after the competition.â
There were so many people, she couldnât tell who was who. Besides, Song Yaoyao was a public figure now. She wouldnât just sit in the audience casually, it would cause a commotion.
For this reason, she would have probably done something to disguise herself.
This also made it more difficult for Shan Ling to find her.
She turned around and returned, just in time to meet Luo Xingguang. Shan Ling looked back and didnât see Yu Bai.
The two of them walked side by side. Shan Ling said helplessly, âWhy are you arguing with a junior? The two of you are really giving me a headache.â
One of them was sitting firmly in the entertainment industry. He was the number one Prince Charming in the hearts of countless boys and girls. The other was a young male idol from overseas who had been gaining momentum recently.
To be honest, Shan Ling didnât really like Yu Bai. His business skills were indeed not bad and his looks were also good, otherwise, it would be impossible for so many people to like him. Unfortunately, he was too ambitious. If he kept a low profile for a few more years, he might have been able to compete with Luo Xingguang. But right now, he was just relatively more popular among the other young stars.
Luo Xingguang was irreplaceable. He was not.
Luo Xingguang raised an eyebrow and snorted. âI canât stand him.â
When Shan Ling heard this, she shook her head. âTo be honest, if I didnât know that there was nothing between you and Yaoyao, I would have thought that you were fighting with Yu Bai over her.â
Fighting over a girl who was already taken?
Luo Xingguang choked. âWhat are you talking about?â
It was unbelievable.
Shan Ling laughed out loud. She looked at her side and asked in a low voice, âCould it be that Yu Bai has fallen in love with Yaoyao? Thatâs⦠courting death!â
She had debuted early and it had been fifteen years since her debut. Now, she was exactly thirty years old.
Looking at these boys was like looking at her younger brothers. Even though Yu Baiâs temperament was unstable, his abilities were not bad.
Luo Xingguang curled his lips. âFallen in love? No,â he said with a faint smile. âHe just wants to do something immoral.â
At this moment, his assistant called out to him from the front. Luo Xingguang acknowledged him, turned his back to Shan Ling, waved his hand, and strode away.
Shan Ling stood rooted to the ground.
âDo something immorââ
She quickly covered her mouth and forcefully swallowed the word.
The door to the dressing room in front suddenly opened from the inside. Yu Bai did not expect to bump into Shan Ling the moment he stepped out. He narrowed his eyes and affectionately held Shan Lingâs arm, âSister Shan Ling, were you out the front just now? I heard the audience cheering.â
âAH⦠Yes, thatâs rightâ¦â
The goosebumps on Shan Lingâs arms stood up, especially where Yu Bai was holding her. It was stiff, as if it was paralyzed.
Compared to others, she naturally trusted Luo Xingguang more.
On one hand, they were friends. On the other hand, Luo Xingguang was arrogant due to his talent, and he was very skilled in his own business. He did not want to play games.
Therefore, if he said that Yu Bai wants to do something immoral with Song Yaoyao⦠perhaps it was trueâ¦
âEh? Sister Shan Ling, why are you acting weird? Did something happen to you?â
A handsome face suddenly enlarged in front of her eyes, scaring Shan Ling so much that she jumped back.
Yu Baiâs hand was flung away, and the scene fell silent.
Shan Ling: ââ¦â
This⦠if she had known earlier, she wouldnât have been so gossipy! How could she still look straight at Yu Bai now?
Perhaps her preconceived thoughts caused her to look at Yu Bai with pity. Yu Bai blinked quickly and asked softly, âSister Shan Ling, did you hear something?â
Shan ling: âThat⦠Noâ¦â
Seeing this, Yu Bai felt even more aggrieved, âIs it Teacher Luo? I didnât do anything. I only said a few good words on Teacher Songâs behalf. Sister Shan Ling, are Teacher Luo and Teacher Song really friends?â
