Chapter 67: Worth It to Wait? (1/2)

After hanging up, Lin Chuxue pressed her lips together. She could only use this as an excuse to cheer for Xu Cheng. Since when did she need to find a reason or excuse to even talk to him?

Lin Chuxue bitterly smiled.

She was standing on the balcony of Xu Cheng’s home. When Shen Yao came over, Lin Chuxue quickly put the phone into the bag.

“Are you really okay not going back for two days? Wouldn’t your boss take you to court or something?” Shen Yao held the fruit plate and chewed as she asked.

“Did you forget that my family is a big shareholder of the company? I’m basically half a boss. When the company just started, we needed a capable singer and celebrity to lead the company, and that was why I was chosen to give it a shot. The boss would never force anything on me. By now, we are already signing more and more new celebrities and trainees, so the company will still be able to function normally without me,” Lin Chuxue said.

“But you are a popular money tree right now, it would be unreasonable if your company doesn’t take advantage of a gold magnet like you,” Shen Yao pouted and said.

“Money can be earned anytime, and it’s not necessarily good to have money.” Lin Chuxue remembered how she and Xu Cheng missed the most opportune time to accept each other because of the gap in their social and wealth status.

Shen Yao bitterly smiled. Looking at the night view from the balcony, at the bustling city lights, she said in agreement, “Yeah, everything changed after the money came. My dad started to attract bees and butterflies, and lost something he treasured and wanted to protect in the past.”

Lin Chuxue looked at her and slowly asked, “You still don’t want to go back home and face your step-mother?”

Shen Yao was a bit lost. She looked ahead and shook her head. “Maybe the scar in my heart didn’t heal yet, so I don’t want to go back and face them. After all, with my current resources, I can make enough money to feed myself.”

She then turned around, looked towards Lin Chuxue and asked with a smug smile, “My big superstar, when do you plan on marrying yourself away? I heard that there are tons of rich heirs surrounding you every day, willing to spend millions after millions on you. Holy crap I’m jealous.”

Lin Chuxue chuckled and replied, “You said it yourself, I’m wearing the big superstar halo, and those people only want to play with me for that. Assuming that I lose that dazzling halo, maybe I won’t be worth that price anymore.”

Shen Yao asked, “So, do you have a target yet?”

Lin Chuxue bitterly smiled and shook her head. “I’m not interested in looking for one right now. I just want to focus on my music for now. I’m only 23, so why would I be anxious?”

“Hey, you came to develop your career in Huaxia all by yourself, sometimes it gets lonely for sure, so you obviously need someone to take care of you,” Shen Yao said.

Lin Chuxue smiled. “So, that’s why I came to visit you. Aren’t you my best friend that will take care of me?”

Shen Yao rolled her eyes. “Come on, you already threw me under the bus twice. I can still vividly remember the scene of getting besieged by your fans.”

Lin Chuxue laughed and replied, “That was because you didn’t believe how popular I was. At the first time, I even told you to be careful, you exposed my location yourself, and now you are blaming me?”

Shen Yao also couldn’t help but laugh awkwardly. She met Lin Chuxue in the air. She was the stewardess, and Lin Chuxue was in her sunglasses. She was assigned to bring Lin Chuxue out of the security check. It was good until she insisted on buying Lin Chuxue lunch, and then they were besieged by fans and barely got out.

Shen Yao smiled after remembering how they met. On the balcony, she let out a long sigh and said, “I wonder if Xu Cheng can beat the North Gate leader. As a local, I know a lot about North Gate’s gang leader. He’s a merciless guy that will use the most brutal means to get what he wants.”

Lin Chuxue looked at Shen Yao in surprise. “You are concerned about him?”
