Chapter 69 There's always a price to pay.



Nanxing stared blankly at the words. This was her dream since she was a child, and she had Duan Ye's support, but why wasn't she as happy as she had imagined?

At this moment, Nanxing's agent, Xu Ke, also walked in. Her entrance was quite loud, but Nanxing remained motionless.

Xu Ke was a little puzzled, so he walked over and bent down to take a look.

The agent's intuition told her that this lone wolf was definitely not ordinary to Nanxing.

After all, there are so many comments under Nanxing's Weibo post, yet Nanxing only follows this one person, who isn't even a big influencer. It's hard not to be suspicious.

Furthermore, Nanxing debuted as a girl group through an open audition for amateurs, and is not from a professional acting background. With such a persona, she absolutely cannot have any weaknesses or scandals.

So, Xu Ke frowned and took Nan Xing's phone.

Nanxing snapped out of her daze: "Sister Coco."

Xu Ke sat down directly opposite Nan Xing and placed Nan Xing's phone on the table: "Come on, tell me, who is this person?"

Nanxing's face flushed slightly. He sat there in silence for a long time before finally managing to utter, "Friend."

Who is Xu Ke? She's a top agent in the entertainment industry; she recognized her immediately.

Xu Ke: "You like him, don't you?"

Although Xu Ke was asking questions, his tone clearly indicated his certainty.

Nanxing knew she couldn't hide it from Xu Ke. With her excellent information network, even if she didn't say anything, Xu Ke would find out by checking.

So Nanxing simply gave a bitter smile: "He got married."

Xu Ke was clearly stunned and stood there.

She originally wanted to warn Nanxing to recognize her own identity, since they had signed a contract that Nanxing could not date for five years and had to maintain the persona of being single, otherwise the penalty for breach of contract would be 50 million.

But now, she couldn't bring herself to say those words.

Nanxing took the phone and smiled at Xu Ke, but there were clearly tears in her eyes.

Nanxing said, "Sister Keke, this is my own choice. I know what to do. I didn't contact him, nor did I reply or pay attention to him. I just... want to see how things go."

Nanxing wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and when she looked up again, there was no longer any emotion in her eyes.

"I've always known what I want, don't worry."

In the end, Xu Ke simply patted her on the shoulder and said, "Nanxing, you always have to pay a price to achieve success. Since he's already married, you should restrain yourself."

Nanxing wanted to respond with a smile, but she couldn't manage a smile. She just nodded slightly.

Xu Ke sighed, opened the bag, took out the documents inside and handed them to Nan Xing: "Taking advantage of the popularity of the new drama, I've arranged for you to star in a variety show to boost your popularity. It's the hottest variety show right now, and you and Mu Feng will go together."

Nanxing: "Do we have to be there all day?"

Xu Ke: "Yes, starting next week, in Shanghai. You can go home tomorrow, but you'll probably be busy after that. After the variety show ends, you'll be joining a production team. I've got you a role in a period drama set in the Republican era."

Nanxing nodded: "I understand."

Xu Ke: "That's all then. Let's rest today. Good night."

Nanxing: "Good night."

Qi Yue came in after Xu Ke left. She had been standing at the door ever since Xu Ke came in, so she heard everything that was said.

Qi Yue has been following Nan Xing since she was a member of a girl group, which has been several years now. Hearing this…

She was also shocked.

After all, she had never realized that Nanxing liked Duan Ye.

Hasn't it always been Duan Ye who likes Nan Xing?

And... Duan Ye got married?

How long has it been since she broke up with Ye Nuan? Why does she feel so dazed?

With a thousand thoughts swirling in her mind, Qi Yue ultimately only asked, "Nanxing, are you alright?"

Nanxing had already collected her thoughts and said with a smile, "I'm fine."

"Let's go, take me home, and pick me up the day after tomorrow morning."

Nanxing stood up, ready to leave.

Qi Yue asked, "Is Duan Ye really married?"

Nanxing's body stiffened slightly, and her voice trembled noticeably: "Really."

Qi Yue was truly stunned. She really hadn't expected that Duan Ye would actually get married in such a short time.

Qi Yue was shocked and saddened for Nan Xing.

If you liked her, why wait until now to say it? You had so many opportunities before…

During those years, Duan Ye's eyes were full of love when he looked at Nan Xing.

But why are they drifting further and further apart now that they both have promising futures?

Nanxing has already taken the lead in going out.

Qi Yue's eyes couldn't help but redden. She knew that empty seats would eventually be filled, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

But this is something Nanxing insisted on missing...

Qi Yue thought that if Nan Xing had fallen for Duan Ye because of that fire rescue, she would probably let it go quickly.

But what if... after all these years, she only now realizes she likes Duan Ye...

Will Nanxing never be able to let go of this?

Unable to get an answer, Qi Yue could only hurry up and catch up with Nan Xing.

The neon lights of Beijing flickered, and Nanxing, sitting in the back seat, looked at the city's night view, tears welling up in her eyes.

At this time, Duan Ye should be with his wife.

Sometimes, a woman's intuition is frighteningly accurate.

The atmosphere in the hot pot restaurant is lively right now.

Luo Qingyuan and Sun Xiaoyin sat together. Next to Luo Qingyuan was Duan Ye, and next to Sun Xiaoyin was Lin Feng. Opposite them were Liu Jie and Ning Zhi.

Sun Xiaoyin quietly asked Luo Qingyuan, "Sister Luo, when are you having your wedding?"

Luo Qingyuan pondered for a moment, then smiled and replied, "The earliest would be next year."

Sun Xiaoyin: "Next year? That's a long time... But you're already married, so you can take your time with the wedding."

By the end, Sun Xiaoyin's voice sounded somewhat disappointed.

Luo Qingyuan: "What's wrong? Haven't you and Lin Feng sorted things out yet?"

Sun Xiaoyin: "No, we wanted our parents to meet and get engaged, but..."

Sun Xiaoyin was so embarrassed that she couldn't continue speaking.

Luo Qingyuan also felt helpless about this situation. Parents' disapproval was truly the biggest obstacle between couples, so she chose to act first and inform them later.

certainly…

She hasn't played it yet.

But we should try to keep it a secret for as long as possible.

Otherwise, if her parents and brother all rushed to Kyoto, then the world in Kyoto would really change.

Luo Qingyuan didn't know what to say, so she picked up the wine next to her and handed it to Sun Xiaoyin, and picked up another glass for herself: "Come on, I'll drink with you tonight. Let's not think about anything else, let's drink our fill, and then go to sleep."

Sun Xiaoyin's eyes lit up immediately. She reached out her delicate white hand to take the wine glass and clinked glasses with Luo Qingyuan: "Great! Sister Luo, you're so kind!"

Sun Xiaoyin didn't lower her voice intentionally when she said this, and Duan Ye heard it and couldn't help but look over with a smile: "Sun Xiaoyin, is it okay for you to call her Sister Luo?"

Lin Feng put his arm around Sun Xiaoyin and looked at Duan Ye with a smile: "Oh? Looks like you're the only one who can call me that?"
