BXBX NOVEL Chapter 394 - Lies
Chapter 394: Lies
“Alpha Xu said the same thing,” Song Wenye was vexed, but she could not comprehend. “How could there be such a coincidence? You know Pei Xu’s temper. Since the Ning family said so, he would certainly not do anything to Xu Wei.”
Shen Xi paused for a moment and said, “The child is innocent.”
Song Wenye sighed. With the Ning family protecting Xu Wei, Pei Xu could not touch her and thus they could not get their revenge.
Shen Xi was feeling sleepy so she told Song Wenye not to think too much as bad people would somehow get their retribution. She leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes.
Song Wenye was livid that God was unfair. Xu Wei was an unconscionable murderer, yet she did not suffer any retribution and relied on her child to get into the good graces of the Ning family. After talking for a while, Song Wenye was thirsty and asked, “Xixi, can you give me a sip of water?”
Shen Xi was half-asleep and let out a faint “mm”.
Song Wenye looked at the thermos and felt touched. ‘Xixi still loves me… She’s willing to share the flask that Toffeecito’s dad gave her.’ Song Wenye opened the lid and sipped. Her face wrinkled up and she almost spat it out. She swallowed it with difficulty. “Damn! Ginger water?!”
She hated the taste of ginger but she could not spit it since she had taken a sip. Otherwise, Shen Xi would kill her for wasting Toffeecito’s dad’s effort. However, she felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to die.
Shen Xi heard Song Wenye but did not open her eyes. She smiled warmly and her voice was tinged with happiness. “Give it back if you don’t wanna drink it.”
Song Wenye put the lid back on and stuffed the thermos back into Shen Xi’s arms with disgust. She asked, “Do you have a cold?”
Shen Xi’s voice was low as she said, “I got my period.”
Although Song Wenye was disgusted with ginger water, she still envied Shen Xi. “OMG! Toffeecito’s dad is so attentive!”
He was indeed the perfect boyfriend.
Shen Xi hugged the flask and said, “Yeah, you should sleep for a while so you’ll be energized for the exam later.”
Song Wenye could not sleep because she was bothered by Xu Wei’s matter.
Their plane arrived in S City on time, and the examination went well. At noon, the school arranged for them to have lunch before flying back to the Capital.
When they arrived, Song Wenye looked at Shen Xi and said, “I have something to do later, so I won’t join you. Is Toffeecito’s dad fetching you from the airport?”
Shen Xi nodded. “Where are you going later?”
Song Wenye was not sure if she should feel happy or sad about this. “The company asked me to go over to meet a few other girls who will be performing in ‘National Idol’ with me.”
“National Idol” was a talent show that was set to start recording on April 12th, which was less than two weeks away.
Shen Xi was aware that “National Idol” was about to start shooting, but she had never interfered with the company’s arrangements for Song Wenye.
Shen Xi spent plenty of effort to select contestants for the “National Idol”. Song Wenye was her trump card because that was where she could make her debut.
They found four other girls.
Two of the girls were poached from Country H where they were poor trainees exploited by their companies. However, these girls would soon become the main dancer and the lead singer in a big female idol group.
The remaining two were also set to be the future popular singers in China’s entertainment industry. Any one of them was a natural superstar and could beat Su Ruowan without trying.
To be honest, Shen Xi felt pressured by having many excellent talents in the same season. After all, Shen Xi was the mysterious mentor of this program, so she had a lot of say in it.
The Top Class was walking behind Shen Xi and could vaguely hear their conversation.
When Su Ruowan heard the two of them talking about “National Idol”, she sneered.
She did not see Shen Xi’s name in the application form for “National Idol”, but Song Wenye joined.
Song Wenye was only a clown who knew how to fight, so even if she joined “National Idol”, she would not gain fame and be eliminated in the first round.
Su Ruowan’s father invested in this talent show to promote her debut on the show but the company would decide on the final debut candidate.
‘Not to mention this trash Song Wenye, even if Shen Xi participated, she would be second to me!’ Su Ruowan thought.
Shen Xi was aware of this, yet she still allowed her friend Song Wenye to waste her time and effort in participating in this talent show. Su Ruowan thought friendship might not have been so great after all.
Su Ruowan wanted to advise Song Wenye if they were alone one day. She would tell her not to be such a fool and so sincere to others just to be betrayed.
There were a lot of cars parked outside the arrival hall.
The students of No. 4 High School would return to school for their afternoon classes, but Shen Xi and Song Wenye took a leave of absence for the rest of the day.
The Top Class heard the conversation between Shen Xi and Su Ruowan in the morning and Song Wenye also mentioned that Shen Xi came in a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost.
The group had their eyes wide open as they searched for the Rolls-Royce, but they could not find it.
Song Wenye looked around and pulled Shen Xi over. She lowered her voice and asked, “Where’s Toffeecito’s dad’s car? He’s not coming to pick you up?”
Shen Xi looked across to a black Maybach. Li Yuan rarely drove his Rolls-Royce and would frequently drive a low-profile car.
Song Wenye felt a little disappointed, but upon second thought, driving that Rolls-Royce would be an easy target for his enemies to assassinate him. She sensibly said, “I’ll take a taxi to the office, so I won’t disturb you two!”
Song Wenye then quickly left by herself. She knew she was a sucker for good-looking people, so she did not want to greet Toffeecito’s dad for fear that she would get enchanted.
The group from the Top Class was still searching for the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. When they saw Shen Xi getting into a black Maybach, they glanced at each other and laughed mockingly.
What a joke!
Song Wenye and Shen Xi’s lies were a little overstretched. The difference in the price of a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost and a Maybach was dozens of Ferraris!
