Chapter 28 - Contract Terminated (2/2)

Since the contract had been terminated, she could not stay at the hotel booked by the production team any longer. Chi Yaoxi immediately returned to the hotel, packed her luggage, and called Sister Ming.

The phone kept ringing but no one picked up.

Chi Yaoxi was deep in thought, shaking her head in disbelief, her heart gradually becoming cold.

Was the human heart so unpredictable? It was fine if the rest of the crew did not understand or support her, Chi Yaoxi couldn’t care less, but how could Sister Ming do this? That she wouldn’t even pick up the call she made?

Since her debut, Sister Ming had been bringing her along. Although she was usually a little long-winded and had extremely strict requirements, Chi Yaoxi knew in her heart that Sister Ming was doing it for her own

good.

It was also because of Sister Ming’s support and assistance that Chi Yaoxi’s path in the entertainment industry had been smooth sailing for several years.

In Chi Yaoxi’s heart, her feelings and dependence on Sister Ming could be said to be even closer than her biological sister.

However, at such a critical juncture, even Sister Ming was determined to leave and stay away from her?

Chi Yaoxi’s eyes became moist, truly unable to accept this result. This type of result was too chilling

She did not want to go back to her original home no matter what. Fortunately, she had bought a flat a few years ago when she had just debuted.

Chi Yaoxi carried her luggage, hailed a taxi, and returned to her flat. Before she reached the entrance, Chi Yaoxi saw a familiar figure. Why was Xiao Ye here?

Chi Yaoxi, who was mentally and physically exhausted, looked listless. She was a completely different person from her usual high-spirited self.

Xiao Ye watched as she got out of the car and walked over slowly with her luggage. He quickly took a few steps forward, took the luggage with one hand and patted her shoulder with the other. “I know. It’ll be fine. You don’t have to worry too much. I’ve already gotten someone to investigate. It’ll definitely get better.”

Chi Yaoxi felt grateful towards Xiao Ye. When she heard his comforting words, she forced a smile onto her face, nodding towards him to express her gratitude, but inside, she felt wronged, so upset that she wanted to cry.

Xiao Ye helped Chi Yaoxi clean up the house briefly. When he turned around, he saw her sitting on the sofa motionlessly, looking listless. Xiao Ye walked over and sat down to accompany her. “Yaoxi, you’ve always been strong. Believe me, everything will pass and you’ll get better.”

Chi Yaoxi stared blankly ahead, tears welling up in her eyes. She tried her best to hold them back, not letting herself cry.

Xiao Ye had never seen Chi Yaoxi in such pain and helplessness before. His heart was moved, and his heart ached beyond words. He gently pulled Chi Yaoxi into his arms and let her lean on his shoulder. “If you want to cry, just cry. You’ll feel better after that.”

Chi Yaoxi could no longer hold it in. She felt that it was too difficult for her to bear with all the stress and troubles she was having.

“Wu…” Her warm tears flowed into Xiao Ye’s arms, wetting his light blue shirt.

Xiao Ye didn’t say anything. He just quietly hugged Chi Yaoxi and let her cry out all her sadness, grievances, and pain.

A few minutes later, Chi Yaoxi stopped crying. She wiped her tears away and slowly got up from Xiao Ye’s arms.

“I’m sorry for dirtying your clothes,” Chi Yaoxi said tearfully.

Xiao Ye knew that she had calmed down a lot after crying. Looking at her tear-stained face, he deliberately teased her and said, “Don’t worry, you can buy me another one.”
