Chapter 808: Idol Man-G.o.dTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Ling merely thought that she was being a naïve little girl and didn’t think too much about it.

She sat and chatted with Feifei for a while more before leaving the room after reminding Feifei to have some good rest. She located Father Ye and Auntie Liu, who were waiting outside the room, and told them, “You might already know that Shaohui was lost for several years. The foster family that took care of him wants to become family with us. Thus, they’ll be holding a ceremony to welcome us. In the future, I’ll be the G.o.ddaughter of that family.”

Father Ye was a little afraid of this superstar daughter and said while rubbing his hands nervously, “Okay, okay… becoming family is good. They took care of Shaohui for so long… we’re already family on account of that. Xiao Ling, we’ll do as you say.”

Auntie Liu tugged at Father Ye’s sleeve, glaring at him. “What okay? Some random poor family wants to become our relatives just because Xiao Ling is a superstar? Why should we agree to it?” She was worried that if Xia Ling were to have G.o.dparents, there would be less money to split between them in the future.

Xia Ling said, “I’m informing you on what’s going to happen. This isn’t a discussion.”

Auntie Liu wanted to say something more but Xia Ling continued, “That family stays in the mountain. They want both of you to be present for the ceremony. Settle the matters at home, we’ll leave in three days.”

Auntie Liu started to shriek. “What’s this? This irritating girl… we haven’t agreed to go yet! Why? You’re disowning your biological parents and accepting some strangers as your G.o.dparents?! I’m not going! Your dad isn’t going either!”

“Ten thousand yuan.” Xia Ling said.

Auntie Liu was suddenly silent, greed gleaming in her eyes. She hadn’t expected that she would be paid for going into the mountains and was quietly calculating how much she could get out of this. She pretended to be dissatisfied and said, “Just ten thousand? That’s too little… do you think we are beggars?”

“Thirty thousand yuan.” Xia Ling responded. “Any more and you can go fly your kite.”

She had guessed that Auntie Liu would bargain, so she was already prepared to part with thirty thousand yuan.

Auntie Liu was still not satisfied. “Miss big superstar… are you that poor? Only thirty thousand? I think we still shouldn’t go… I’ll just stay here and tend to the kids, play some mahjong… that would be so much more comfortable.”

Xia Ling laughed. “You’re not going? Fine, don’t go then. Anyway, they were just being polite in inviting you guys. It doesn’t really matter if you go or not. I’ll go by myself then and save that thirty thousand yuan.”

Auntie Liu became anxious hearing Xia Ling’s words. “Aye… you can’t be like this! Who said I’m not going?!”

“You said it yourself, didn’t you?” Xia Ling gave a cold smile. “Thirty thousand… do you want it or not?”

Seeing that she couldn’t squeeze any more from Xia Ling, Auntie Liu agreed reluctantly. “Okay, I’ll go.” However, she wouldn’t give up completely. “We need to dress up nicely to go over to their place, or we’ll be throwing face for the Ye Family. Your dad and I don’t have any new clothes. Xiao Ling, perhaps you can bring us to buy some new things?”

“I don’t mind.” Xia Ling waved at them before turning and walking away. “Wear whatever you like.”

Auntie Liu was left stamping her feet in anger. “That irritating girl… I hope she gets knocked down by a car!”

Father Ye tried to reason with Auntie Liu. “Come on, Zhaodi… thirty thousand yuan isn’t bad already. The television and hot water dispenser in the house need changing. We also have money to buy some nutritious food for Feifei since she just woke up.”

Auntie Liu shoved Father Ye and scolded. “What do you know?! It’s all your fault that daughter of yours is like that! She’s a Diva and has such a big company! I heard that even the cleaners in her company drink Da Hong Pao tea! Did I ask her for a lot? Thirty thousand yuan? That’s peanuts to her! She’s treating us like beggars!”

Father Ye became unhappy at Auntie Liu’s words.

He thought about it closely. Yes, Zhaodi’s right. Thirty thousand yuan might be a lot for normal households, but for Xia Ling, what is that? He recalled watching a news channel that reported that the diamond bracelet on her hand was a least two hundred million. She was so stingy to the family but was willing to splurge on her little accessories?!

“This daughter… aye…” Father Ye sighed. “She’s a little unfilial.”

Hearing him sigh, Auntie Liu felt as if she found a comrade and became excited. She started to rant about Xia Ling with gusto. After ranting, they went into the ward to see Ye Xingfei, remind her to take care of herself, and encouraged her to become a big star as well.

After they left, Ye Xingfei couldn’t bring herself to rest completely. After all, she was an active young girl and had just woken up from a long sleep. She started to surf the web to get herself up to date on all the news in recent years, taking particular notice of her idol’s recent activities. That year, she had auditioned for Skyart’s training camp to get closer to her idol.

As she scoured the web, something caught her eye.

She called Xia Ling in excitement. “Sister! Sorry for disturbing your rest so late in the day! You are well acquainted with Bai Murong, right?! I saw that you filmed a variety show with him! Oh my G.o.d… he’s my idol… I like him so much! Sister, you’re so lucky to be able to film a program with my idol!”

Xia Ling had just taken a bath and was in a blurry, relaxed state with a towel wrapped around her body. She toweled her hair as she listened to Ye Xingfei swoon over the phone. “Bai Murong? Ah right, yes, I know him. That variety show was filmed a long time ago… the Man-G.o.d episode of Extraordinary Risks, right? I’ve also filmed several music festivals with him. He’s a nice guy.”

She ran through the memories in her head and finally recalled that this sister was crazily in love with Bai Murong before her accident. Then, she would pull Ye Xingling everywhere to watch Bai Murong’s concerts, buy fan merchandise, and was also the president of one of Bai Murong’s fan clubs. She couldn’t resist but smile to herself. This sister was just too adorable.

Xia Ling grew up in an orphanage and was constantly worrying about Xia Yu’s sickness when she was a young girl. Later, she was adopted by Pei Ziheng at the age of twelve and groomed to be a superstar. As such, she had never chased after a star before.

She extracted all the memories of Ye Xingfei and Ye Xingling chasing after Bai Murong. It was filled with all kinds of emotions… crying ones, laughing ones… It was surreal for her to see the entertainment circle through the eyes of a “fan.” She was touched by the innocence of the girls.

Ye Xingfei was so excited that her words tumbled out of her mouth. “Sister, sister, can… do… do you still contact Bai Murong? Can you help me arrange a meeting with him? I really like him so, so much! I want to talk to him and take a photo with him! All my friends will be so envious of me!”

Xia Ling was in a good mood as she teased. “You have a superstar sister… isn’t that enough for your friends to be super envious of you?”

Ye Xingfei’s face turned red as she complained. “No, no, that’s different! Murong is a Man-G.o.d to me! Man-G.o.d!”

“Okay, okay… your Man-G.o.d.” Xia Ling laughed out loud. “How about this? I’ll see when Bai Murong is free to meet up.”

“Thank you, sister! Sister, you’re the best!” Ye Xingfei thanked her profusely.

Xia Ling hung up and immediately called Bai Murong. She told him that her sister had woken up from her vegetative state. She also told him that this sister was his die-hard fan and wanted to meet him.

Bai Murong smiled on the other end of the line. “Okay, you’re lucky that I’m in S city these two days to film a show. Tomorrow night I’ll be flying to j.a.pan. Why don’t you bring her over to meet me tomorrow afternoon? I’m having high-tea with Luo Luo, but I’m sure she won’t mind having the both of you come along.”
