Chapter 55 Sharing the Same Misfortune



Wei Changfeng thought that although he was in a foreign country, Lin Xiao must have already seen the "sensational" rumors about him circulating online.

Should I explain this to her? But from what standpoint should I do so?

Lin Xiao's gaze was always so calm whenever she looked at him, more serene than the Seine. Even if she believed those revelations, it probably wouldn't matter to her, right?

After all, it's just a scandal involving a male celebrity who doesn't care about anything.

Let's just forget about it. Anyway, the news about the clarification is trending now, so if she pays any attention to herself, she'll probably see it.

As for whether she believes it or not, what difference does it make?

Despite these thoughts, Wei Changfeng still casually opened Lin Xiao's WeChat Moments.

To everyone's surprise, Lin Xiao, who hadn't posted anything before, posted a few photos two days ago, and Wei Changfeng recognized him immediately in the second photo.

The inky sky was filled with stars, and nearby, dark tree shadows seemed to stretch out long arms.

That was a photo Lin Xiao took that evening on the terrace of a cabin in the town of Albertville.

The caption was just one word: Night.

The other photos are probably of Paris at night, with distant church spires and the dark waters of the Seine.

There's also a photo that was probably taken from the Montmartre hilltop of the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, overlooking the Paris night view.

Wei Changfeng recognized him because he had done magazine shoots there.

He thought for a moment, then liked Lin Xiao's post on WeChat Moments. He seemed to have a lot to say, but didn't know where to begin.

He then began looking through photos he had taken in Paris. Fortunately, his phone hadn't been stolen, and he still had many wonderful memories.

Besides the landscape photos, there were also some group photos of everyone in the town, including a few of him and Lin Xiao. Some were selfies he took with his phone, and others were taken by Xiao Hao.

In the photo, Lin Xiao has a shy smile and a peaceful, gentle gaze, possessing a cool and refreshing quality that sets her apart from other girls.

In the photo, Wei Changfeng is grinning foolishly, showing off his white teeth, and his eyes are like two crescent moons.

That was truly a stress-free time, free from the scrutinizing gazes of others, the tension of being surrounded, the flashing lights, and all external noise.

He took many photos in Annecy and Albertville, but unfortunately he only stayed in the cabin for one night and spent the next few days in a hospital bed.

Wei Changfeng opened his WeChat Moments and posted several photos from his time in France.

This is his private WeChat account, which is only used by close friends, so he can post freely, but he still posts very rarely.

In the same location as Figure 2, he chose a photo taken in the town of Albertville.

It's hard to say what she was thinking; she seemed as naive as a kindergarten child.

After posting it on his WeChat Moments, Wei Changfeng made a self-deprecating remark, but that's exactly what he wanted to post.

Lin Xiao's gentle smile still lingered in his mind, and Wei Changfeng shook his head, as if trying to shake her out of his mind.

Compared to Wei Changfeng's "thrilling" experience after returning to China, Lin Xiao's month in France was peaceful and fulfilling.

I attended several Chinese New Year celebrations in Paris and had meals with friends, so although it was my first time spending the Spring Festival alone, I wasn't as lonely as I had imagined.

Her father, Lin Haitao, said he would come to see her in a few months and told her to eat whatever she wanted and buy whatever she wanted, and not to deprive herself.

Due to foreign exchange controls, Lin Xiao only brought 100,000 euros with him, part of which was transferred by his father through a business account.

Although she was already quite well-off compared to the average international student, she still didn't dare to spend money recklessly, and to be honest, she hadn't developed a habit of spending money recklessly.

Lin Xiao once asked Yang Xile curiously why he had invited him to the embassy's New Year's Eve party.

She wasn't wearing designer brands at the time, and if she were an ordinary international student, she probably wouldn't have been invited to that party.

Moreover, if her family background is really very ordinary, even if she is invited to participate, wouldn't she become a laughing stock when she introduces herself?

Therefore, Yang Xile must have been certain from the beginning that he was also in the same circle as them, which is why he extended the invitation to her.

Lin Xiao had no idea how he figured it out.

"It's about temperament, or rather, demeanor," Yang Xile said, as if carefully considering how to choose the most appropriate words.

"At the party that day, although everything seemed new and exciting to you, you remained poised and confident, showing no stage fright or pettiness whatsoever."

Lin Xiao carefully recalled her performance that day, but since people cannot observe themselves from the outside, she did not know how she had acted so gracefully.

“Ah, there’s another reason,” Yang Xi chuckled mischievously, “You were wearing traditional clothing but you had a watch on your wrist, right? My second sister also has one of those watches, a limited edition.”

Lin Xiao looked at his mischievous smile and suddenly realized that all those compliments about his temperament and demeanor were nonsense. It turned out that he had recognized his watch!

Lin Xiao doesn't own many luxury items, but her watches are all quite nice. Besides the one Feng Jinglin customized for her 18th birthday, her father Lin Haitao also gave her two.

The watch Yang Xile mentioned that she wore at the embassy was a gift from her father to make up for bringing her stepmother and younger sister into the family on her 15th birthday.

At the time, Lin's father told her that the watch was very valuable, saying that even her younger sister didn't have one, and he only bought it for Xiaoxiao.
