Chapter 18: I’m a Super Star! (3)
In Xu Shenxing’s words, Song Yu reached the top of her life.
– It was supposed to be like this.
After she obtains the dark blue pearl, everything in her life should run smoothly. It was almost all in an instant, she had a surprising number of fans all over the country, and there were also several well-known record companies queuing up to sign her.
Even now, according to her parents’ suggestion, she still didn’t sign with any company and is still waiting for the highest bid, but she still got a large number of invitations every day. She had to ask one of her distant aunts to be her broker to deal with these matters.
It was a great opportunity which ordinary people couldn’t have during their life, but it didn’t make Song Yu lose herself.
Indeed, in the beginning, she was quite happy and felt fulfilled due to be recognized and liked by others. However, as time went by, she calmed down from her initial impulses.
She once secretly took off the pearl, then found her song lost its wonderful and magical charm immediately, though it was still euphonious. In a manner of speaking, everything she owned now was just a castle in the air which was completely dependent on the pearl. This fact made the girl feel quite insecure.
Not only that, even the life of a superstar was different to what she had once dreamed of. Regardless of the paparazzis and her fanatical fans who always secretly followed her, the seemingly endless social activities were already making her exhausted.
“Trust me, that developer is very rich, and he just wants to have a meal with you! Give it a second thought; his money can help your future career a lot!”
After she had become famous, Song Yu moved out from the university dormitory. Today, she finished her daily work, then returned to her villa, which is just being used temporarily. Her aunt still babbling on and on about how good it is to have a meal with a famous real estate developer. She had rejected this developer’s invite three times, but it seemed that the developer was shameless and didn’t want to give up.
“But I don’t like his eyes when he looks at me.” Song Yu felt quite annoyed and uncomfortable when she saw her aunt’s disapproving expression. She couldn’t control herself and retorted loudly, “He doesn’t care about who I am and what I want. He just wants to f.u.c.k me!”
Then let him f.u.c.k you.
Although her aunt didn’t say it out, her expression had shown her real thoughts.
All of a sudden, Song Yu felt her heart was so empty.
That was not what she wanted.
The girl felt dispirited and threw her handbag at her aunt, then ran out of the house. She drove her brand-new BMW M6 and left the villa area.
“Tut, this kid…” Her aunt ran out of the door, but only saw the back of the car disappeared in the corner. She couldn’t help but show an expression as if she was saying “What a stupid girl!”.
Song Yu didn’t know why but she subconsciously drove her car to Jiangjin university.
Fortunately, it was cla.s.s time now. Around the playground area, she didn’t see many students walking about the university. She walked through the grove and went back to the small lake – the place where everything began.
The artificial lake was still as normal as usual. The wind blew across the lake surface as the sunlight reflected off the water when it rippled, which caused a gust of cool wind to disperse the summer heat around the lake. In the middle of the lake, a small area of Lotus’ were in full bloom; its pink petals were exceptionally beautiful in the background of verdurous lotus leaves.
Song Yu didn’t sit on the bench, but sat on the gra.s.s by the side of the lake, holding her knees. She took out the pearl and gazed at it as the sun went down.
She did it over and over again these days, and the Pearl always seemed addicted her soul. She felt it was as vast and profound as a sea.
Sunlight slanted down through the blue pearl; it reflected blue waves on the girl’s face.
Song Yu wanted to throw the pearl away to end this kind of illusory and luxurious life, but she still felt a little reluctant in her heart. This kind of ambivalent feeling made her feel more irritable.
“I found her! She’s here!”
Song Yu suddenly heard a man’s voice behind her, which was really scared her. Her hands slipped and caused the pearl fall into the lake.
However, she had no time to pay attention to the pearl now. An unconscious glance let the girl find several men in black suits with wearing oversized dark gla.s.ses were running through the grove and trying to get close to her.
She hastily stood up, asked alertly towards the several men, “Who are you?!”
They didn’t answer her but continued to run closer.
Seeing this, Song Yu took a deep breath. She opened her mouth and tried to scream out loud. Jiangiin University is a university – because of that, there are many students. As some young men, their warm blood still not cooled down due to the tribulation of life; in addition to Song Yu was a famous in the university, once they found out she was in trouble, these students would definitely help her.
The leader of these men in black didn’t expect that Song Yu was so determined as a girl. Song Yu could even see his frown.
However, that was all. The next moment, their leader rushed towards Song Yu and punched her in her stomach. His punch forced her swallow back her scream, and she could only fall to the ground. She vomited while clutching her stomach.
Although Song Yu knew a little self-defense, however, when she faced a real bad guy who knew kungfu, she was as weak as a lamb.
“Oh, you are awake… I advise you’d better save your energy, in order to amuse my boss a little while later.” The leader of men in black saw Song Yu’s unwilling expression, but he just chuckled and said with disdain, “I have seen too many opinionated women like you, but they all finally succ.u.mbed.”
“You’re that developer’s hired thug…” Because she didn’t eat anything when she ran away from home, she just vomited out some bile. She said after she caught her breath, but her hands and legs were still feeble; making her unable to stand up.
“Shut her mouth and take her away.”
Apparently, the man in black didn’t want to talk with Song Yu; he just scowled and ordered his subordinates.
At this moment, a giant whirlpool appeared in the middle of the artificial lake. A giant, clam-like monster surfaced above the whirlpool. It shot out a few tentacles, brandishing them towards the lakesh.o.r.e. Several men in black were too late to dodge these tentacles; these tentacles immediately whipped their bodies. They fell to the ground; no one knew if they were alive or dead.
However, their leader was quite agile and leery. He dragged Song Yu along with him and dodged the tentacles.
Afterwards, the giant, clam-like monster immediately changed its target to them.
“What the h.e.l.l is this!” Although the man in black had done many bad things, he apparently had never been in such a situation. He shouted loudly, in order to cover up his panic.
Seeing the monster’s tentacles shooting towards them, he hesitated for a moment, then kicked Song Yu’s waist. He took this chance to flee into the bushes, but as a result, the girl who fell to the ground had to face the monster alone.
Was this punishment because she wanted to get something for nothing?
When Song Yu desperately looked at the tentacle striking towards her, an idea suddenly but unavoidably flashed in her mind.
