Chapter 551: Chapter 553: Beating Yellow (1)

Xue Feifei lived outside for a total of three days.

Previously, Xue Feifei had never thought that she would experience such a day, where like a stray dog, she was driven hither and thither, exhausted from continuous running.

She was smart, moving to a different hotel every day, not living in luxurious multi-star hotels, but rather in those affordable ones with rooms priced around two to three hundred yuan per night.

Moreover, the hotels she stayed in were not from the same chain brand, all to avoid being tracked.

She thought about returning to her hometown on the second day after the incident had occurred. She called her mother, “Mom, where are you these days?”

The Xue family, although not as wealthy as the Bai family, was also a decent middle-class family. They had a house and a car in Yan City. Xue’s father held a pretty high position in his company. Xue’s mother lived a decent life, naturally making time for self-care, travel, and shopping.

However, after her father owed a huge amount of money and fled, the Xue family house and car were sold. It was Feifei who became a star and paid off all the debts. But they had no means to buy another house in Yan City, where the housing prices were sky-high, so Xue’s mother moved back to her hometown.

Feifei had not been greatly successful in the past few years, but her income was still better than that of the average white-collar workers. This allowed her mother to have the spare time to travel and go shopping. During their call today, her mother happened to be out of town, “Feifei, is there something wrong? Did you and Xiaosong…”

Feifei had nearly forgotten about Song Yang. She had been utterly exhausted these few days, with no time to pay any attention to him.

He was feeling rather proud these days; after she didn’t respond too much to his initial messages, he stopped sending them on the second day. Which was appropriate, considering he had plenty of suitors in the matchmaking market, and he likely had quite a few backup options at this point too.

“No, I just missed you. Why, don’t you welcome me?”

“No, it’s just, I’m out of town right now, touring with some of your aunts. Do you have an emergency?”

“…” Feifei had no choice, “Then when are you coming back, Mom.”

“At least two to three days.”

Feifei nodded, “Then I’ll come see you in three days. I’m not too busy with work recently.”

She didn’t book a ticket immediately because it would attract unwanted attention, so she booked a ticket for three days later instead.

As for staying in budget hotels, she thought that someone like Yu Sixing would be more accustomed to luxury four or five-star hotels. He probably wasn’t so familiar with the type of budget hotels that were found everywhere.

As she had predicted, she roamed outside for three days, and Yu Sixing didn’t catch up with her. She was due to leave Yan City tomorrow. Although she wanted to return and develop her career here in the future, she thought that if she stayed in her hometown for a few months, he would likely lose interest in her and stop looking for her.

She considered calling the police, but if Yu Sixing really went to jail, the release of the video would bring her no benefits. At this moment, she deeply regretted her decision to join the entertainment industry, to become a celebrity.

If ordinary people’s secrets were exposed, they could move to a new place, change their names and live a normal life. But as someone in the entertainment circuit, she was recognizable even in the lowest tiers of the industry. Wherever she went, she would be linked with the scandalous video. Unless she moved to another country and underwent plastic surgery, she would never live in peace for the rest of her life.

Leaving aside her close friends and relatives, Huang Qichu would also come to know that she and Yu Sixing had already…

The hotel she stayed in tonight was the closest one to the train station.

The hotels around the train station were all a bit chaotic. Especially when she came to check in, the guest next door was a man with tattoos on his arms. He stared at her unabashedly while she walked by.

Being a single woman, it was not appropriate for her to wander around at night, so she had to order takeout.
