Chapter 1243: Chapter 1246: After the Separation (2) Chapter 1243: Chapter 1246: After the Separation (2) The other party excessively hinted at her own brother several times online, which is called riding the coattails of his fame without shame. If she remained completely silent, she’d be deemed arrogant and isolating, which would also lead to criticism. If they cooperated in a sham coupling for publicity, the fans of the couple would tend to side with one over the other, leaving the other side drained. Once the couple eventually split, the other side would play the victim and pull the other down, essentially turning it into a major spectacle.

Feifei initially appeared as Huang Mi’s “mistress,” when Huang Mi had not even gone public with a girlfriend yet. Just the label “mistress” made it predictable how severely she would be criticized. Later, even after the situation was clarified, and she announced her relationship with Yu Sixing officially, the fans were still relentless. If it hadn’t been for Feifei’s respectful and admiring treatment of Huang Mi during their later cooperation, with absolutely no romantic feelings involved, and Huang Mi also maintaining a good relationship with her, she would still face criticism to this day.

This time, she was filming with Huang Mi, that arthouse film. After getting the script, she went ahead to the filming location to familiarize herself with the local environment. However, her early departure was related to another issue: the situation at Yu Family was too chaotic, seemingly Yu Sixing was delayed by some matter. She didn’t want to inconvenience Yu Sixing, so she decided to go work first.

As expected, after she started working, Yu Sixing didn’t follow. Although they still video called every day, it wasn’t the same as living together.

Despite Feifei’s fiery temper, she wasn’t a fool. Her relationship with Yu Sixing had just gone public, and despite some reservations on both sides, a romantic relationship would naturally involve being together constantly. He reported on his whereabouts punctually every day. Feifei knew he was extremely busy with work, having several major projects for either shooting or financing. In this frosty period for the film and television industry, every company was extremely cautious about investing money, so it was reasonable that he was working hard.

Yet, she still vaguely felt like he was hesitating about something, but just not saying it.

Anyway, she didn’t have a deep-seated determination to grow old with Yu Sixing. Although they were in a relationship, love is precisely the emotion that’s most susceptible to change. She could only assure that while she was in love, she would do everything expected of a lover. As for everything else, she would leave it up to fate.

Like today, she had already told Yu Sixing about her return to the country. But when she reached the parking lot, there was no sign of Yu Sixing’s car. As she got into her car and was about to leave, Yu Sixing finally called to apologize, “I’m sorry, I was really tied up with work today and couldn’t come to pick you up.”

“It’s fine, I’m not without a driver or assistant; I could manage even without you coming over.” Although Feifei expressed understanding, there was still an unmistakable hint of ironic resentment in her words.

Yu Sixing fell silent for a bit before adding, “I had my secretary clean the house yesterday, so when you get back, you don’t need to worry about cleaning up. Rest assured, I instructed them very clearly to not touch your stuff when they were cleaning.”

“It’s okay, that stuff isn’t worth much anyway. You could have thrown it all out, and it wouldn’t matter.”

“Feifei.” Yu Sixing’s voice slightly lowered.

Feifei could sense it and didn’t want to start a fight with him just upon her return to Yan City. After a long pause, she said, “I have some other things to handle, I’ll hang up now, go back to your work.”

After saying that, she didn’t wait for Yu Sixing to say goodbye and hung up the phone. She thought for a bit, then decided to call Lu Weixi. The phone rang for a long while before finally being picked up: “Feifei.”
