You're My Only Star

Chapter 63 - What Is My Mom Doing Here?

When she arrived at the office the next day, her co-workers were all discussing yesterday's live stream. Song Xing Xing walked over to her friend and listened as they were discussing the casts.

Liu Yu Sheng tugged at her hand and asked, "Xing Xing, did you watch the stream last evening?"

"Of course I watched them. You texted to remind me about the live stream."

"You didn't reply to my text afterward. I thought you were unwell and went to bed early."

Song Xing Xing chuckled. "My phone died after the live stream. Afterward, I was too busy cleaning Mr. Fluffball's area and then forget to look at my phone."

In reality, after she watched that live stream, Song Xing Xing was a little upset to see Bai Zhi. She tossed her phone at the side and was too lazy to look at the comments or news again.

Once upon a time, Bai Zhi had tried to set her up to get a role in a drama. Now that Bai Zhi was going to appear in this big production drama, Song Xing Xing could not help but wonder if she had played a trick again.

However, Song Xing Xing could not deny that Bai Zhi was a good actress. Otherwise, how was it possible for her to trick her for years?

Fortunately, Song Xing Xing was part of the post-production team. Logically, she should not have had many interactions with Bai Zhi. However, if the shooting was done in the studio, there would be a chance for Song Xing Xing to run into Bai Zhi.

Liu Yu Sheng heaved a sigh before she pulled Song Xing Xing into a corner. "I can't believe that Bai Zhi would be acting in the same drama as my idol. Just imagining her appearing on the same screen with Huo Yun Chen made me upset." As if she realized that she had spoken the wrong words, Liu Yu Sheng bit at her lips.

Last time, Song Xing Xing had already told her that she was no longer as closed with Bai Zhi. However, Liu Yu Sheng was still worried that her friend might have gotten close again to that person.

She did not want to make Song Xing Xing upset with her words.

"It's fine." Song Xing Xing patted her friend's hand. "I've told you that I am no longer as closed to Bai Zhi."

Liu Yu Sheng looked at her friend in worry. "What happened to you two?"

Song Xing Xing forced a smile. "Let's not mention this matter. What passed is past. I hope that I won't be seeing her again, but it seemed that this wish is a bit impossible."

In the past few weeks, Liu Yu Sheng had seen that Song Xing Xing was a little bit under the weather. She thought that perhaps, her low mood was something related to Bai Zhi.

Seeing that Song Xing Xing did not want to talk about this matter, Liu Yu Sheng decided not to mention that person again.

After discussing a little bit about the live streams, everyone went back to their computers and started to work on their episodes. As everyone was busy editing their videos, Producer Ming walked into the room and clapped twice to get everyone's attention.

Song Xing Xing took off her headphone and turned to look at the Producer.

"Alright, as everyone knows, the first season for this variety show will end soon," Producer Ming said. "Ning Yan, you will be in charged of that final episode, right?"

Ning Yan nodded. "Yes, it's me."

"After the final episode, most of you will start working with that new drama, and some of you are going to work on another project," Producer Ming continued. "

"Producer Jiang and Producer Yao had decided to hold a little party to celebrate the completion of our first season. It's nothing much. We'll have dinner together with everyone in the post-production team."

The post-production team heard about this free meal and was very happy. Some of them began to suggest a good place for the producers to treat them to delicious meals.

"As for the venue and time, I will let you know later." Producer Ming gave a few encouraging words before he walked out and leave the room.

Ten minutes before it was time for her to clock off, Song Xing Xing's phone on the desk started to vibrate. She glanced at her phone screen and quickly took off her headphone again when she saw the caller ID.

It was rare for her cousin, Song Yi to call her. Thinking that there was something important he wanted to say, Song Xing Xing swiped her finger on the screen and pressed her phone to her ear.

"Hello? Cousin Brother?"

"Xing Xing, you should be getting off work soon, right?"

"Un…" Song Xing Xing stood up and walked out of the office. "What's wrong? Why did you call?"

"It's nothing serious," Song Yi said. "Just that, Auntie… your mom arrived in Capital City a while ago. "

"Ah?" Song Xing Xing thought that perhaps she had heard wrongly. "My mom? What is my mom doing here?" A deep frown appeared on her face as Song Xing Xing tried to figure out whether her mother had told her about coming to Capital City.

The last time she talked to her mother was two days ago. However, Song Xing Xing was very sure that her mother had never mentioned anything about visiting Capital City.

Did she remember it wrong?

"I don't know. I guess Auntie wanted to give you a surprise?" Song Yi said.

"My mother came to find you?"

"Hmm… She came to my place a while ago and said she wanted to look at Xiao Jun. Anyway, once you get off work, you should come over and find my car. We'll be waiting across the studio to pick you up."

"Cousin Brother, you don't need to pick me up. I'll just come over to your place."

"What am I supposed to do then? We're going to arrive soon."

Song Xing Xing quickly noticed that there was something strange in Song Yi's words. "We?"

"Mmm… Your mother said it was not easy for her to come to Capital City. She wanted to look at the place you working at."

Hearing his words, Song Xing Xing began to panic.
