Chapter 563 - Where’s Your Bodyguard?

Yun Xiangxiang gave a wry smile. “I’d rather not have this limelight.”

The same sentence had been said again. This meant another actress had been offended.

The main thing was that they were not in China. If they were within their sphere of influence, they could still control the media.

Their words were not effective in the media here. If they were to rashly intervene, it might have the opposite effect. When the time came, people would accuse her of bribing the media in order to stand out. Probably no one would believe that she was suppressing her own news.

Wasn’t it a great opportunity to show off? Wasn’t their goal to gain fame and fortune? Only a fool would push such an opportunity away.

Therefore, she chose to avoid the media. When she returned home, she asked Song Mian, “Shall we fly back tomorrow morning?”

“Sure. When we return to China, it’ll be the morning there. Let’s take off early, I’ll get people to prepare now.” Song Mian saw that Yun Xiangxiang’s expression was not right. “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy?”

“I’m not happy because I didn’t win the award,” Yun Xiangxiang made up a story.

“To be honest,” Song Mian looked at her cute little face, “if you were a person who cared about fame and fortune, you would have been unhappy a long time ago.”

“I just don’t want to suffer an undeserved disaster...” Yun Xiangxiang told Song Mian about what happened at the film festival.

In fact, the award ceremony was a live broadcast. Song Mian watched the whole ceremony. Only then did he understand what Yun Xiangxiang was worried about. “It’s very simple. I can make a phone call and make sure you don’t have any news tomorrow.”

“Let nature take its course.” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want to do anything deliberately, and she didn’t want to use Song Mian’s power. “If she hates me because of this, there’s nothing I can do. Although I can understand, I didn’t take the initiative to hinder her interests.”

If someone were to exact their revenge on her, Yun Xiangxiang would fight back mercilessly.

How cowardly was she to ask Song Mian to settle the media? She didn’t even dare to face this bit of jealousy and hatred?

She was willing to do so in China because she had made money for Huan Yu Century Entertainment, so there was no problem in using their resources.

In addition, they were in the same circle. They would see each other in the same workplace, so it would be good if there was less friction.

That was not something to worry about when overseas. She was in a hurry to leave because she didn’t want the media to be too curious about her. They would poach her from Song Mian and disrupt their happy times.

Initially, she had only come here to attend the film festival. Now that the film festival was over, her work was done. With the current situation, she would definitely not go anywhere else. It would be a waste of time if she stayed. She might as well leave as soon as possible. She still had to film back at home, and the start of school was not far away.

“Besides, if you interfere in such matters, people might misunderstand that you are trying to suppress me and I have offended you.”

Seeing that Song Mian seemed to want to say something, Yun Xiangxiang spoke first, “You should know that there are many people who play by the rules. Don’t do bad things with good intentions.”

Song Mian smiled helplessly. He and Yun Xiangxiang both understood. Others were not fools and wouldn’t be able to understand their attitude.

Whether it was to suppress or to protect, they only needed to probe a little to understand.

Yun Xiangxiang was deliberately saying the opposite. She didn’t want people to know that she had someone protecting her and that she had a strong backing.

Since she had said so, Song Mian naturally didn’t force her. He immediately ordered Song Yao to prepare a flight in the early morning. It would be morning when they returned to China.

“Let’s go. Since we’re returning to China in a few hours, I’ll bring you to have a delicious meal.” Song Mian pulled Yun Xiangxiang along as they walked out.

“I haven’t removed my makeup yet...”

“Don’t worry, it’s a private kitchen.”

Originally, Song Mian had planned to bring Yun Xiangxiang there tomorrow afternoon. However, Yun Xiangxiang was in a hurry to leave, so he decided to bring it forward.

When they came here, other than the two days of sightseeing and enjoying the local delicacies at Carl’s house, they basically had nothing else to do.

Yun Xiangxiang really hadn’t tasted all the delicacies here.

The place Song Mian brought Yun Xiangxiang to was very high-end. There were many luxury cars parked at the entrance.

The privacy was also very high. The two of them were placed in a private room. Each private room was equipped with a kitchen, and they would have a personal chef cooking for them. The waiter would then bring the food to them.

The delicious dinner made Yun Xiangxiang’s mood better. After eating, Yun Xiangxiang went to the bathroom. There was a separate bathroom in the private room, but it was a toilet. Yun Xiangxiang didn’t like to use it, so she asked if there was a public bathroom.

Perhaps it was because it was very late, there were not many people here. Yun Xiangxiang didn’t meet anyone when she went to the bathroom.

However, when she left the bathroom and was about to return to the corridor of their private room, she met an acquaintance.

It was Lu Xihua, who was wearing a dark gray suit. After returning from France, she didn’t meet Lu Xihua again. After all, she was in China, and Lu Xihua was abroad.

Lu Xihua also saw Yun Xiangxiang. He seemed to be heading in the direction of Yun Xiangxiang. The two of them passed each other without looking away.

However, Lu Xihua suddenly stopped and turned around. “Miss Yun, where is your bodyguard?”

Yun Xiangxiang stopped and turned her head. “What do you mean?”

Yun Xiangxiang suddenly had a bad feeling about this sudden question.

“It’s nothing. It’s just that something happened to Miss Yun of the Faran Kingdom. It’s not safe for her to go out without bodyguards.” Lu Xihua smiled and left.

Yun Xiangxiang felt that he was implying something, but she didn’t chase after him. At this time, Song Mian also left the private room.

“What’s wrong?” Song Mian happened to see Lu Xihua looking behind Yun Xiangxiang. When he walked over, Lu Xihua was already gone.

“I just met Lu Xihua.” Yun Xiangxiang felt that her good mood was ruined again.

“Lu Xihua? What did he say to you?” Song Mian’s eyes narrowed.

“He said that it’s not safe for me to go out without bodyguards.” Yun Xiangxiang snorted. “I don’t believe that he would dare to kidnap me.”

“Don’t worry, he doesn’t have the guts.” Song Mian held Yun Xiangxiang’s hand. “Song Yao called. We’ll go straight to the airport. They’ll pack their luggage and bring it over.”

If it wasn’t for Faye Yi, was there a reason why Lu Xihua dared to take Yun Xiangxiang away?

Yun Xiangxiang had planned to go back earlier, but now that she met Lu Xihua, she couldn’t wait to leave.

Their car arrived at the airport and Yun Xiangxiang got on the plane. The plane would take off in half an hour, so she planned to rest.

However, seeing sSong Qian’s anxious face, she couldn’t help but wonder, “Qianqian, what’s wrong?”

“I made an appointment with Ai Li yesterday to return to the country, and now, I’m leaving early. I called her, but I couldn’t get through.” After three hours, she had made more than ten calls, and the phone was always out of service.

It was normal for the phone to have no signal. Three hours was indeed a bit long, and it was not an exaggeration to worry about it.

However, Yun Xiangxiang’s heart sank when she thought about it. She suddenly remembered what Lu Xihua asked her just now, “Where’s your bodyguard?”
