Chapter 154 : Something Must Be Going On
“All right, fine. I’ll go back now. Call me if you need anything,” Ma Haodong said after pondering for a few seconds.
“Sure thing, thank you.”
Xu Xiyan suddenly thought of Huo Yunshen, and was afraid that Huo Yunshen might be waiting for her at home, so she sent him a message.
She told him that she was going to her grandfather’s place.
A few seconds after the message was sent, Fang Xiaocheng called her.
“Yanyan, who are you with right now?” Fang Xiaocheng asked anxiously. “What are you doing?”
“What’s wrong?” Xu Xiyan asked.
“You don’t know yet? The news just reported that Ma Haodong was seen hugging you, carrying you out of the studio.”
Fang Xiaocheng had noticed that it was Xu Xiyan in the news and quickly got ahold of her to hear the truth of behind the gossip.
“Spill it! How do you two know each other? Are you two dating? Come on, I know you two aren’t on the same set.”
What Fang Xiaocheng meant was that something must have been going on between Xu Xiyan and Ma Haodong, because they were photographed together while they were working on different movies.
“You sure love your gossip,” Xu Xiyan said, shaking her head. “We’re just friends.”
“Hey, social media is getting flooded with your picture. Ma Haodong’s ‘girlfriends’ are going on a cyber manhunt. You might become famous after this.”
“...”
Cyber manhunt? Me?
I have a bad feeling about this.
Ma Haodong’s “girlfriends...” Even the sound of it is scary enough.
“Where are you at right now?” Fang Xiaocheng’s voice broke the silence.
“The hospital.”
Fang Xiaocheng rushed into Xu Xiyan’s hospital room half an hour later and saw Xu Xiyan lying on the bed.
“What the hell! Everyone thought you were having a date with a handsome man, what did you do to get yourself into the hospital?”
“A date? Yeah, right. I almost got a date in hell.”
“What happened?” Fang Xiaocheng asked as she sat down.
Xu Xiyan told Fang Xiaocheng the whole story.
“Are you shitting me?” Fang Xiaocheng shouted angrily. “Are those two trying to kill you?”
“Well, can’t do anything about it,” Xu Xiyan said with a sigh.
“See, I told you to drop the job, and you didn’t listen to me,” said Fang Xiaocheng. “Of course Xu Xinrou will find some way to get her hands on you. You better stop this right away.”
Xu Xiyan understood that Fang Xiaocheng was worried about her, but she wasn’t going to give up just yet.
“Orange, I have to go on! I’ve gone through many hardships to get to where I am now. If I quit right now, doesn’t that mean they get what they’ve wanted? Believe me, the tides will change very soon.”
Fang Xiaocheng couldn’t help but sigh. She was Xu Xiyan’s best friend. Even though she wanted to support Xu Xiyan’s decision, she couldn’t just ignore the trouble Xu Xiyan had gotten herself into.
Xu Xiyan left the hospital the next day. Fang Xiaocheng took her back to Shengshi Yujing.
