Chapter 572: Suddenly Wanting to Quit the Circle

“Borrowing a knife to kill someone. Before we know whether or not this person can be killed, the first step is not to find a sharp knife,” Song Mian smiled, “but to remove yourself completely first.”

Previously, Lucifer dared to do this because no one would be able to catch him after he did it. Now, he naturally didn’t dare to do it.

He was afraid that Song Mian would intentionally let Old Gus live, and that would be the end of Lucifer.

Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t help but smile. The situation had completely changed, and Song Mian had the absolute advantage.

“There’s one more thing...” Song Mian paused and said to Yun Xiangxiang, “I have already sent people to secretly try to save them.”

Yun Xiangxiang: !!!

“You’re deliberately stalling here to distract them and then pull the rug out from under them!”

This move was simply terrifying. If everything went smoothly and Song Mian saved everyone—acquiring evidence in the process—the other party would take the evidence to the Gus family to ask for the person. The irrefutable evidence was like a mountain. No matter how Old Gus tried to hide it, he had to hand the person over.

If he couldn’t hand over the person at this time, who would believe that the person was saved?

Even if the Gus family said it out loud, there was no credibility. To smooth out this storm, they would have to pay a huge price..

“Boyfriend, did I say that you’re really bad?”

Song Mian raised his eyebrows. “No, you only said that your boyfriend is the best in the world.”

Yun Xiangxiang thought about it and smiled. “But no matter how bad you are, you’re still my favorite. Good night!”

Then, without giving Song Mian a chance to react, she cut the video and went back to sleep.

While Song Mian was away, Yun Xiangxiang was always at home or in school. He Wei was especially busy this year, so he didn’t give Yun Xiangxiang too much work. However, the new phone that they decided to endorse in April was going to be released.

After more than a week of classes, He Wei called her. Xue Yu had finished filming, so the two of them were going to shoot an advertisement.

The advertiser gave her and Xue Yu one of the latest products, letting them try them out in advance. Yun Xiangxiang was very respectful and immediately used it. Before shooting the advertisement, she had to figure out the phone’s performance and strengths.

The advertisement was especially like an idol drama, especially Xue Yu’s line of holding the phone in his palm: “Hold you in the palm of your hand and protect you.”

It was as crisp as it could get. Even though Xue Yu was around 36 or 37 years old, he took good care of himself and acted like an idol.

After filming the commercial, Yun Xiangxiang noticed that Xue Yu was unhappy. It seemed like Xue Yu had been acting weird ever since she came back from the land of wine and flowers.

“What’s wrong, Senior?” Yun Xiangxiang handed him a bottle of mineral water.

“Thank you.” Xue Yu opened the bottle and took a big gulp. “I’m suddenly a little tired and want to quit this industry.”

“Quit the industry?!” Yun Xiangxiang was so frightened by Xue Yu that she almost lost her grip on the mineral water in her hand.

“Okay.” Xue Yu looked at the blue sky and raised his hand to block the sunlight. “Yeah, I feel like quitting.”

“How could you have such an idea! If you quit the circle, you won’t be able to sing anymore. Are you going to go to karaoke alone? How are you going to explain this to Brother Wei? And you have so many fans?”

Xue Yu was rendered speechless by Yun Xiangxiang’s question. He gulped down another mouthful of water.

“What’s wrong with you? Why did you suddenly have such an idea?” Yun Xiangxiang could tell that Xue Yu was struggling. He was different from those who were truly tired.

She had experienced the feeling of quitting the industry herself. She knew better than anyone what it should be like.

However, Xue Yu refused to speak. Although both of them were here to shoot the commercial today, He Wei was very busy and didn’t follow them.

Yun Xiangxiang thought about it and asked tentatively, “Is it because of Sister Xu Zi?”

“I’m going to be 37 soon. It’s time for me to get married and start a family.” If it weren’t for the fact that he had no relatives and no family, he might have been forced into a corner.

“Getting married and starting a family doesn’t necessarily mean you have to quit the industry.” Yun Xiangxiang felt that there must be something that she didn’t know. “Senior brother, you love this stage. I can tell that you’re reluctant to leave. But love, you can’t just give in.”

“Have you ever thought about what you’ll do for a living after you leave this stage?”

“Your savings are indeed enough for you to squander your life, but you’re not even forty yet and you’re already so decadent?”

“If you were in a different industry, have you ever thought about what it would be like?”

Xue Yu had thought about Yun Xiangxiang’s problems before. It was only after thinking about it that he knew the consequences. That was why he was so tired and agonized.

“Xu Zi’s father can’t accept my career,” Xue Yu said to Yun Xiangxiang after a long while.

“Senior Brother, Ah Mian and I are together. His money is enough for me to live comfortably and squander for a few lifetimes. However, I never thought of giving up my career,” Yun Xiangxiang said earnestly, “it’s not that I want to be strong, but I hope that I’m a valuable person and not someone’s subordinate.

“I can exchange my hard work for the rewards I deserve, and I can contribute to society through my work, even if it’s not much. These are my values.

“I love him very much. I can give up my life for him, but I can’t give up my faith for him.”

If she was a person without faith, soul, or value, she didn’t think that she was worthy of Song Mian.

Yun Xiangxiang’s words made Xue Yu suddenly raise his head. His gaze slowly focused, and a light rose from the bottom of his eyes.

“Junior Sister, you’re right. This isn’t for fame and fortune. This is where we show our value.” Xue Yu suddenly became enlightened. “Some things can be sacrificed for love, but some things can not.”

“Senior brother, can you tell me the cause and effect?” Yun Xiangxiang took the opportunity to ask.

At the mention of this, Xue Yu let out a deep sigh. “During the new year, I accompanied Xu Zi to her parents’ house to visit them...”

Xu Zi’s father had always been indifferent to him, but fortunately, he had mentally prepared himself for this.

At the dinner table, not only did Xu Zi’s father belittle the actors, he even said that actors like them had brought down society’s ethics.

He talked about how many people were crazy about chasing after celebrities. He also talked about how plastic surgery had become so popular that even a person could become an actor.

In Xu Zi’s father’s words, actors were a cheap scum of society. It would be best if they were all banned.

He was an elder, so Xue Yu endured it. When Xue Yu and Xu Zi were alone together, he suggested that he was not young anymore and that they had been dating for a year. It would be better to get married as soon as possible.

Xu Zi said that they needed to discuss marriage with their parents, so Xu Zi must have mentioned it when she went back. Xu Zi’s father personally called him, and Xue Yu happily picked up the call without waiting for him to say hello—and non-negotiable voice came from the other end of the phone.

“You want to marry my daughter? Sure, quit the entertainment industry first!”
