Chapter 694 Let’s Break Up
“I’m always like this,” hearing her words, s.h.i.+ Xiang was a little angry, because she actually chose to side with Xu Luosang. “Besides, I can’t do whatever I want sometimes. I was late because the company didn’t arrange the schedule well or because of some unexpected situations. How can that be my fault?”
“No matter why you were late, you don’t seem sorry at all. On the contrary, you’re blaming others.” Yan Su felt a little uncomfortable. “s.h.i.+ Xiang, I sometimes attend events and work with stars, too. Last year, I took part in the New Year’s Gala at a TV station. I saw Bai Chengze there. He’s a very well respected singer who has won the Golden Melody Award a couple of times. He wasn’t like you. He even got there an hour early to coordinate better with the TV station and everyone else.”
“How can you compare me with him?” s.h.i.+ Xiang said without thinking, “He used to be popular, but he’s only a has-been star now. He doesn’t have much work to do, so starting to work earlier or later makes no difference to him. I’m not like him. The commercial value of every minute that I have is way higher than his.”
Yan Su couldn’t believe it. Luosang’s words made her have doubts, and s.h.i.+ Xiang’s words allowed her to see him as a whole new person. She didn’t realize it before. Was it because the conversations that they had before were too short? It might also be because they never talked about these kinds of things. Her s.h.i.+ Xiang had changed. He’d become so sn.o.bbish.
“s.h.i.+ Xiang, have you forgotten about your original intention? You said that you only wanted others to hear you sing. Why do you think so much of money now? You already have a lot of money…”
“Su, I can only say that you don’t know me well enough, or maybe you don’t care about money because your family is rich. Your parents didn’t want us to be together because my family wasn’t as rich as yours, isn’t that right?” s.h.i.+ Xu said in a deep voice, emphasizing the last three words.
“So for money and fame, you hooked up with that so-called Young Mistress?” Yan Su asked.
s.h.i.+ Xu stayed silent for a couple of seconds and then responded in a deep and cold voice, “What do you mean?”
“s.h.i.+ Xiang, Sangsang speaks many languages. I’m afraid you don’t know that yet. She has pa.s.sed Korean Test Band 6, so she might speak better Korean than you. About those words that your a.s.sistant said and those small tricks that you guys played, she knew it all. She just didn’t point it out.” Yan Su chuckled with an extra soft and gentle voice. However, tears were gus.h.i.+ng out of her eye sockets, and she couldn’t stop it.
For a moment, s.h.i.+ Xiang’s brain was blank. He was pretty shocked to learn that Luosang understood Korean, but soon, he calmed down and said, “I didn’t think that she’d even make up ridiculous lies like that about me. It’s because I caused the company to change her schedule. That was my a.s.sistant’s mistake. I promised her that I’d clarify it for her, but she pulled strings, found an unknown boy, and had me replaced. I was disgraced because of her. I didn’t blame her for that, but she’s now trying to frame me.”
Yan Su couldn’t even bear listening to him. “Enough. s.h.i.+ Xiang, that person you’re talking about is my friend. She’s a friend who’s been helping your girlfriend the whole time. I share an apartment with Sangsang. Don’t I know what kind of person she is? I never told you that I signed the contract with the music company and got good resources for my career because Sangsang found someone to help me. I’m not silly enough to doubt a person who has helped me. What have you ever done for me? It’s been so many years, how have you ever helped me? I don’t know if there’s anything happening between you and another woman or not, but what you just said makes me feel like we’re no longer two people from the same world. Based on your current value, I think you might really hook up with another woman. Let’s break up. If there’s a misunderstanding, we can resolve it. But there’s a problem with your moral quality. I think we’re no longer good matches for each other.”
