Chapter 757: Chapter 760: Rivals Meet_1

In a certain street on Pipa Island, Yang Gang couldn’t help but sneeze.

"What’s the matter? Who’s cursing me?"

Yang Gang rubbed his nose, recalling the previous incident, causing his expression to become tense.

The incident where he mistakenly entered the film set resulted in many versions of the story being propagated online.

Yang Gang had seen similar incidents, but he never thought it would happen to him.

"What a close call. If it weren’t for my stealth ability, the drama crew would’ve beat me to death. But think about it, was that really film production? The setting, the costumes, even the camera were as rudimentary as a student film."

Yang Gang let out a long sigh, "Ha, is this the kind of crude film that my Xueji Kingdom can only produce? However, the physique of that actress wasn’t bad."

On the set.

Anqi smiled faintly, "No, he’s not a street thug, but an interesting person."

"Interesting?"

"Hmm."

Anqi then recounted the incident of Yang Gang mistakenly intruding the set and playing out the ludicrous hero-rescues-damsel scene.

Allen’s mouth twitched, "I didn’t expect such things to happen in reality."

He composed himself, looked at Anqi, and laughed lightly, "Sis, it’s pretty rare."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

Allen paused and then smiled, "Generally speaking, aside from He Deng, you seldom show interest in other men. Plus, I sense that when you talk about that man, you seem quite at ease, as if you’ve dropped your guard."

Anqi was taken aback, then gave Allen a displeased look, "Although I enjoy watching tearjerker dramas, I do laugh when watching comedies occasionally. The same logic applies here. I just find that man intriguing! Don’t read too much into it!"

Just then, the sound of Red Moon’s voice suddenly rang out.

"Hello, Anqi!"

Anqi turned her head and spotted a group of people approaching her.

Her gaze first fell on Red Moon, then moved to Su Xiaoxi who was standing beside her.

Her previously proud heart sank a bit.

Today, she had painstakingly applied makeup especially for the film shoot, hoping that her beauty would help her regain some pride, but her opponent turned out to be even more stunning than in photos, and due to her age, she appeared more mature and intellectual than herself.

The moment she laid eyes on Su Xiaoxi, Anqi knew she couldn’t win.

However, there was still some bitterness in her heart.

Zhang Miao gave Anqi a surprising look, a glint flashing in her eyes.

As an intelligent and mature woman, Anqi’s hidden thoughts were clearly transparent in front of Zhang Miao.

Anqi may be able to act haughty in front of others, but she couldn’t maintain her calm and aloof demeanor in front of the man she had adored for a decade, which was her flaw.

There are probably only two people in this world who could see through Anqi’s facade.

One is He Deng, the man she had been deeply in love with for ten years. In front of him, she can’t cover her hollow inner self by acting cold and aloof.

The other surprising person is Yang Gang.

Even though they had only interacted briefly and had just a few lines of dialogue, Anqi discovered that in the presence of Yang Gang, she felt very relaxed, not at all exhausted. It seemed like she naturally drops her aloof mask and shows her true self.

A ’normal girl’ who cries when hurt, and laughs when happy, not the aloof girl known throughout Xueji for her ’cold beauty’ and melancholy.

"Could this girl be the childhood friend and neighbor mentioned by Red Moon, whom He Deng has had a crush on since their childhood?" Zhang Miao thought to herself.

She glanced at Su Xiaoxi and decided not to worry about it anymore.

At this point, Su Xiaoxi took the initiative to start a conversation. She looked at Anqi and laughed, "I heard about you from He Deng a long time ago. You’re Anqi, aren’t you? You truly are a beauty."

Anqi collected herself and smiled faintly, "Hmm, but I still can’t compare with you, Sister Xiaoxi."

She placed heavy emphasis on the word ’sister’, potentially implying that she was younger than Su Xiaoxi?

She didn’t want to appear weak in front of Su Xiaoxi. Even if there was a slightest hope, she didn’t want to give up.

Su Xiaoxi knew Anqi was challenging her, she just smiled quietly in response to her provocation.

On the other hand, Red Moon was quite interested in watching the interaction between Su Xiaoxi and Anqi.

Meanwhile Zhang Miao showed signs of stress, whispering, "Red Moon, instead of just enjoying the show, why not break this awkward tension?"

Red Moon laughed, then introduced, "Let me introduce you. Allen, you’ve met before. This beautiful lady is Anqi. She’s a big star in Xueji, and she’s also He Deng’s childhood friend."

Red Moon paused momentarily, and then continued: "Anqi, this one is the old fortune teller, Yang Gang’s foster father; Zhang Miao, the woman that Yang Gang admired in his youth; this one is Little Qi, Yang Gang’s love rival; this one is Zhang Yu, same as above; this one is Yang Fei, Yang Gang’s adopted sister; this one is Su Xiaoxi, Yang Gang’s..".

"Wait a moment!" Anqi massaged her temples: "Um, Red Moon sister, who is Yang Gang?"

Zhang Miao broke into a light sweat, stood up, and lightly laughed: "Let me introduce you. This one is the old fortune teller, Red Moon sister’s boyfriend; this one is Little Qi, Red Moon sister’s foster son; this is Zhang Yu, my brother; this one is Yang Fei, Yang Gang’s adopted sister; this one is Su Xiaoxi, Yang Gang’s..".

"However, who is Yang Gang?" Allen also timidly asked.

"He’s the man who exchanged secret signals with you today." Finally, Yang Fei said.

Allen thought for a moment: "Oh, that man."

Allen took a look around and asked: "Where is Yang Gang?"

"He’s already on the island, whereabouts unknown." Red Moon paused and then laughed: "Anqi, we plan to visit He Deng’s house tonight. You and Allen come with us."

Anqi glanced at Su Xiaoxi and then clenched her teeth: "Okay! Noted! Um, Red Moon sister, I have something to do, I need to leave now."

Having said that, Anqi left.

"Oh, how heartless! We haven’t seen each other for more than a decade, and she left just after a few words." Red Moon paused and then laughed: "No worries, I understand. After all, the person she cares about the most now is not me, but Su Xiaoxi."

"Ha~" Su Xiaoxi gave a small twitch at the corner of her mouth, collecting her emotions, she said in a cool tone: "I think she misunderstood me."

Red Moon wagged her finger: "Anqi didn’t misunderstand. I don’t know your feelings for He Deng, but He Deng has always been pursuing you. From this perspective, you’re clearly Anqi’s love rival."

"Ha~this is troublesome, if I knew earlier, I wouldn’t have come."

"Hehe, if you hadn’t come, you would not have received Gang’s kiss as a reward."

Su Xiaoxi’s face turned red in an instant: "That was harassment! I’ve already recorded this fine in my ledger. Once we find Yang Gang and get his signature, his debt will be legalized."

Everyone: ..

"To be honest, I kind of feel sorry for Gang. In this whole world, only he would have to pay for kissing his own fiancée." Red Moon said, she suddenly turned to Su Xiaoxi, laughing: "Little Xi, if Gang was your husband, would he still charge you for kisses?"

Zhang Miao laughed: "Firstly, he would have to become my husband."

"Hmm, clever girl!" Red Moon muttered to herself.

She composed her emotions, looking at Su Xiaoxi and said lightly: "By the way, Xiaoxi, He Deng’s father He Feng is a director in Xueji Kingdom, and he greatly approves of Anqi’s acting talent. He also hopes that Anqi can marry He Deng. The old man is honest and although he’s a director, he’s not very good at hiding his feelings. During dinner tonight, he might..."

"No, I will go." Su Xiaoxi paused for a bit and said flatly: "Some things need to be clarified."

"Hmm, but it’s better to discuss these things privately." Red Moon added.

Su Xiaoxi nodded: "I understand."

"By the way, where did that guy Gang run off to?" Seeing that the atmosphere had become a little gloomy, Yang Fei hastily shifted the topic to Yang Gang.

As hoped, when Yang Gang was mentioned, the atmosphere immediately lightened up.

"Probably chasing some girls." Zhang Yu disapprovingly said.

"+1. Though Xueji is a small kingdom with a small population, there’s no shortage of beautiful women." The old fortune teller said.

Little Qi expressionlessly said: "Yes, there are many girls who squander their beauty due to undernourishment."

Everyone: ..

Red Moon sighed and touched her forehead: "Little Qi, no wonder you haven’t found a girlfriend yet, you just don’t know how to communicate. Gang is just emotionally insensitive and dull, but you’re a complete fool. I was thinking, if Xiaoxi and He Deng ended up together, I’d matchmake you and Anqi, but it seems unlikely now."

Everyone: ..

"Okay, we’ve all come to Xueji, surely we all have places we would like to visit? Let’s disband here and gather at He Deng’s house later tonight, everyone knows the address, right?" Red Moon added.

"What about Yang Gang?" Yang Fei asked: "I can’t reach him on his cellphone."

"We’ll look for him while on our tour. If we still can’t find him, we’ll deal with it later." Red Moon said with a light laugh: "After all, tonight’s get-together isn’t centred around him."

"Um, okay."

---

While everyone was chatting, in the southwest corner, a man was sneakily making a phone call.

"Hello, Minister, I’ve found a few foreign tourists. They’re incredibly attractive with excellent demeanour, seeming to be people from the Federation. If they participated in Princess’s selection, it would create an international sensation."

"Really?"

"Absolutely. Wait a minute, I’ll send you a picture."

A moment later.

"Hello, Hai Dou, no matter what method you use, you must get these women to participate in the Princess selection. If this wins the King’s favor, our futures will be limitless!" The voice on the other side said excitedly.
