Not long after, “Su Xia bought snacks secretly” began trending once again.
She clicked into her studio’s group chat on WeChat again and saw Xue Mingan’s latest text.
“Su Xia, do not play dead.”
Su Xia: “…”
She switched off her phone with a dogged resolution and continued watching her movie.
If she popped out in the chat right now, she would be seeking death. She was not that foolish to look for punishment on her own accord.
Besides, based on her understanding of Xue Mingan, he was extremely busy. He would probably forget all about this in a few days’ time.
——
During Su Xia’s three to four rest days, she lounged around at home comfortably. She was extremely well-rested and looked amazing. Her fatigue had all dissipated and was replaced by a sense of complete relaxation instead. After eating, she lay down and scrolled through her phone. Be it her bed, the sofa or the carpet, she could lie down anywhere.
This was her dream life.
Lu Jingyao’s concert took place the night before the broadcast of “Attack, Chef God”. She signed into her private account and saw the private messages Yangyang had sent her a few days ago.
“Qianqian, did you manage to buy tickets for Jingyao’s concert?”
She sounded extremely exhilarated. “Ah ah ah, I managed to buy the tickets! I got the front row of Section A. I never expected that I would be able to attend a concert after earning my own money for the first time. I even managed to snag tickets despite the fierce competition!”
“I have always envied other people for being able to attend Jingyao’s concert and see him in real life. Now I can do so too! If you managed to get tickets, we can meet each other in real life!”
Su Xia hesitated.
After pondering upon it for a while, she replied with slight embarrassment, “I managed to get tickets, but something came up and I should be arriving there on the dot. You had better go in first. Besides, I am busy after the concert as well.”
She puckered her lips slightly. “…I am rather busy nowadays,” she added.
Honestly, she did not want to trick Yangyang. However, it would be inconvenient to show her face due to her identity.
Yangyang replied at once. “Oh, I see. Alright, we shall meet next time then!”
“Alright,” Su Xia replied.
The weather was slightly gloomy the next day. The sky was overcast with dark clouds. It seemed like it would begin raining anytime soon. She could not help but shiver as she was greeted by a gust of cold wind when opening the windows in the morning.
Su Xia dressed herself in a white sweater and a pair of jeans. As usual, she put on a hat and a mask before leaving her house punctually.
She did not know how to drive. Xue Mingan had just finished work and had a day off, so he drove over personally to fetch her to the Imperial Capital Stadium.
It has been three days since she trended online for buying snacks. Su Xia had assumed that this incident was all in the past. Xue Mingan must have forgotten about it by now. However, he had not stopped talking about it since she got into the car.
“You are the first celebrity to ever go on the trends for buying snacks secretly. Buy all you want. Is it awkward for you now that I know all about it after your fan spilled the beans?” he asked.
Su Xia picked at her ears.
“What were you thinking? Buying high-calorie food and eating them so late at night? You must want to grow chubbier! After your face gets rounder and fatter, let us see how those fans of yours taunt and ridicule you!”
“Did you exercise when you were at home these few days?”
“Have you weighed yourself?”
“Did you look at the script…”
Su Xia yawned.
How much longer would it take to reach the stadium?
Calluses were about to grow in her ears.
Xue Mingan sent her a deathly glare. “…Su Xia, are you listening to me?” he asked.
“Yes,” she replied uncaringly. She then turned her head over lazily. “I am reflecting on myself. That is why I am not talking.”
