At night, she went home and told Yan Su about that. Yan Su paused briefly with excitement, then said, “You’re gonna work together with s.h.i.+ Xiang? G.o.d, don’t forget to take me with you. I haven’t seen him in a long time.”

“I’m not sure if they’ll pick me,” said Luosang shyly. “Nuanyi did recommend me, but the company will make the decision. Normally, many people will compete for a role in a game like this.”

“It’s okay. I’ll talk to s.h.i.+ Xiang. He’s the spokesperson, so he must have a say in this.” After saying that, Yan Su happily texted s.h.i.+ Xiang.

It was already the next day at seven pm when she got s.h.i.+ Xiang’s reply. He said, The game company will pick the voice-actors and actresses, not me. It’s inappropriate for me to talk to them on your friend’s behalf. The people in my company might think that there’s something between your friend and me.

Reading the text, Yan Su felt very uncomfortable, so she called him. After quite a long while, he finally answered. “Su, why did you call me at this time? I’m having a meeting with my team about the concert,” said s.h.i.+ Xiang in a low voice.

“s.h.i.+ Xiang, I’ve been on my own out here for all these years without asking you for a single favor. I’m fine with it, but this small thing about my friend will only cost you a few words. You’re not even willing to do this little thing for me. Aren’t you too… heartless?” Yan Su’s voice sounded calm, but the people who knew her well all knew that the calmer she sounded, the angrier she was. “I asked you to help my friend, because I want to go with her and see you,” she continued.

“Su, I’ve told you that I’ll arrange some time for us to see each other in the first half of this year,” s.h.i.+ Xiang said. “If you asked me to help a male friend of yours, I’d do it without hesitation. I’ve looked for this Xu Luosang online. She’s pretty, so my company would definitely ask me why if I tried to help her. I’m popular, but if I fall out with my company now, they will hire an online water army to post fake negative news about me. If that happened, my career would definitely be affected.”

“Your career is already good enough. You’re popular all over Asia now. You’re hiding your relations.h.i.+p with your girlfriend, and you refuse to do her even a little favor. I don’t believe that you’ve never helped anyone in the circle,” Yan Su said. “I watched that show you did earlier. Didn’t you help that female cast member who was with you at that time? People are saying that you guys are a couple. Did your company find fault with you about that, too?”

“My company arranged that. They want people to think that we might be a couple. In fact, I haven’t talked to her since a long time ago,” said s.h.i.+ Xiang in a soft voice. “Please don’t be mad. I promise you, I’ll end the contract with my company in a couple of years, when my career is stable. Then, I’ll focus my career in the mainland of China, and we’ll go public. You see, you’re a singer as well now, aren’t you? You’re so good at singing. You’ll become a star, too, sooner or later. By then, we’ll become the golden couple in the music circle. Su, you have to understand that I’m only 23 years old now. Making our relations.h.i.+p public is no good for either of us.”

“s.h.i.+ Xiang, I think you’ve changed.” Yan Su smiled bitterly. “I remember when you left me, you said that you only wanted to be a singer, and that you only wanted people to hear your songs. You said that you wouldn’t care even if it was only a flash in the pan. But now, the more you achieve, the more you want. We only have one single call each week. To be honest, even if we do make our relations.h.i.+p public one day, I wouldn’t know if you’re still the same person.”

“Su, no matter what I have achieved, you’re the only person in the world who knows all the goodness and badness of me,” s.h.i.+ Xiang said seriously. “One day, I’ll tell the world that you’re the person that I love most.”
