Showbiz Scandal: The Official Announcement of My Ex and Myself-Chapter 254: Wei Yaoyao, Run Quickly

Strawberry mochi is quite delicious, one small piece won’t make you feel sick after taking a few more bites.

Yu Xia finished eating and clapped her hands. She was just about to ask Xie Qingci to carry the stuff for her when he changed the subject.

"Do we take a taxi or catch a bus to get there?"

She thought for a moment, weighing her options, and asked, "If we take a taxi, we’ll have only a little over two hundred left. We still need to eat and stay for the next three days, and the task might also cost some money... can Wei Yaoyao sponsor us?"

Xie Qingci raised an eyebrow, "I think he can."

"Yeah, Wei Yaoyao is definitely a kind-hearted guy. He can’t stand to see friends crashing on the street or unable to afford food. I bet once we reach him, he’ll treat us to a feast and put us up in a five-star hotel, right?"

Xie Qingci nodded in agreement without any conscience, "Right."

So, they cheerfully took a taxi straight to Wei Yaoyao’s place.

The taxi stopped at the intersection of an avenue. To avoid revealing Wei Yaoyao’s exact address, they got out of the car early.

Xie Qingci went to the supermarket to make a call, and Yu Xia waited outside, sitting on a stone bollard, hugging the cream puff bucket, bored, talking to the drone.

"Hey viewers, can you see me? I highly doubt this camera can capture all the exciting scenes. Hello, hello?"

"Speaking of which, have you seen all the teams? Have they found the clues yet? That red ribbon tied to the air conditioner vent where the lighting is dim is truly hard to spot. Well, only someone as clever as me could spot it so quickly. Of course, it helps that my brother is tall too." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"I wonder if anyone got caught. When we left the museum, the pursuers had the advantage. Maybe they found the route clues faster than other teams and then came over to block people at the third checkpoint."

"Dear viewers, did the pursuers spot us and come after us? Friends, please have mercy and don’t reveal our location, and if you must leak it, wait until we have settled in a bit, at least give us some time advantage."

As she spoke, Xie Qingci came out of the supermarket. Seeing her cutely facing the drone and chatting while holding the puff bucket and yawning, he laughed lightly and walked over to sit on another stone bollard.

"Tired?"

Yu Xia squinted, rubbing away the tears on her lashes, and nodded, "A little. I can’t wait to stay in a five-star hotel. What did Wei Yaoyao say? Did he say he would grab two bank cards before coming to get us? If that’s the case, I can wait a bit longer."

This is really like "poor wandering couple seeking help from the wealthy relative."

She sighed, "If Wei Yaoyao is really that courteous, then these little gifts we bought are really unimpressive."

Xie Qingci: "Then eat it."

"... Isn’t that out of line?" He really goes all out sometimes.

"I told him we’re out of money, only brought some fruit and two desserts, and he said it’s okay, the thought counts."

Xie Qingci leaned on his thigh, grabbing a cream puff and stuffing it into his mouth, unexpectedly wrinkling at the overly sweet cream.

Yu Xia was skeptical, "Really? But we didn’t buy fruit... Really? You’re even stingier than me? Only two apples are left."

The fruit bought by her brother, easily peeled ones have been eaten clean, leaving only two apples probably not as crispy and sweet as before. Can these serve as a present for guests?

Xie Qingci swallowed the last bit of cream, furrowed his brow, and took a couple of sips of water to wash away the sticky taste.

Then he said, "He said the thought counts. Go ahead, this puff’s fine."

"Your expression doesn’t look like it’s fine."

She grabbed a puff and ate it, sweet and pleasant. Although it couldn’t compare with the usual desserts, it was a comforting treat amidst their financial woes.

She ate two in a row, with Xie Qingci smilingly watching, then he looked up at the drone and asked her, "What were you saying to the camera just now?"

Yu Xia vaguely replied, "Asking the audience about the other teams’ status and whether the pursuers have come."

"... There’s no response, what’s the point of asking?"

"It’s useless, but it feels good to talk it out. Just talking to you gets boring, pretending there’s another teammate."

"You find talking to me boring?" He turned to her, his tone intentionally slow and relaxed.

The sky was a bit overcast, the dim streetlights were already automatically on, shadows of trees swaying, casting light spots on the side of his face.

His pupils seemed to flash with a fleeting light, the lips under his high nose were pressed flat, leaning on a thigh slightly, like a leopard poised to strike.

Beneath the laid-back demeanor lay a dangerous hint.

Yu Xia’s action of eating the puff paused for a moment.

"Did I say that? I meant there are only two of us, and often we have nothing to say, not talking to others for long causes fatigue. Come on, you greet everyone on camera too, refresh and awaken the long-time viewers."

Xie Qingci cast an ambiguous look at her, then waved to the drone, leaned closer and said:

"Good afternoon everyone, we’re about to meet with Wei Yaoyao, please don’t reveal our whereabouts too soon... Can you?"

[Yes!!! Absolutely yes! /Unleashing wild shirt-tearing man.jpg]

[Ahhhh face close-up of brother! Thanks to Yu Xia for the benefits!]

[Why do I sense a bit of drama here, the vexed brother who only wants to talk to sister and the oblivious sister trying to share him with the masses hahahaha]

[Tears in advance for Wei Yaoyao, Wei Yaoyao, if you’re watching the show, run!]

[Someone got caught! Ling Luo lost her shoe from running, you guys are the luckiest team.]

[The pursuers have moved to the third point already, and two people are specifically monitoring your updates, they’ll probably find you soon, quickly hide away brother.]

[Brother loves sister, even kids can see it clearly, but sister just doesn’t care.]

[My would-dare-not-catch-you-yu-qingci CP, please develop something, once the show is over, I want you both to be together!]

[Just now, when brother helped with the hair, I thought I’d go crazy! Yu Xia was visibly stunned, she’s definitely moved!]

[If Xie Qingci really gets together with Yu Xia, I’ll unfollow right away, what is it? So good background, not focusing on career but on dating?]

[Why not do both? Can’t he focus both on career and romance? I voted for him to debut because I want to see him shine bright in the entertainment circle. If he can balance both, isn’t it a win-win for everyone?]

[Xie Qingci clearly wants to move towards acting, Changhui didn’t want him to remain an idol forever. What’s wrong with liking someone? In this situation, he’s neither illegal nor morally corrupt, and he still stands out among idols.]

[Think too much, okay? Stop talking nonsense, have you asked Yu Xia before criticizing?]

[Don’t think a handsome face can win over Yu Xia, lots of people like her, you idol fans need to chill a bit, right?]
