A Billion Stars Can’t Amount to You

Ji Yi felt an electric shock when Zhuang Yi’s fingers touched her phone, sending her entire body shivering. She turned and glanced at Zhuang Yi. A second later, she ran out of the room in her hospital gown.

”Xiao Yi!” Ji Yi’s reaction came so suddenly that Zhuang Yi couldn’t catch up to her.

Zhuang Yi hurriedly chased after her.

Ji Yi still had a fever, but she was far faster than Zhuang Yi, a person of good health.

When Zhuang Yi made it to the entrance of the hospital, wheezing, Ji Yi had already gotten into a taxi.

Zhuang Yi hurriedly hailed a cab, handed the driver some money and asked him to follow Ji Yi’s taxi closely.

It happened to be the evening rush hour, so there was a lot of traffic on the roads. Luckily, Zhuang Yi didn’t lose Ji Yi.

After Ji Yi’s taxi came to a stop, Zhuang Yi realized Ji Yi had arrived at Chen Bai’s home.

When Zhuang Yi’s taxi stopped in front of the residential gates of Chen Bai’s home, Ji Yi was already inside.

She grabbed her things, hastily got out of the car and followed her in.

Following the path of the residential area, Zhuang Yi took several turns before she entered the building where Chen Bai lived.

When she took the elevator up to Chen Bai’s floor and stepped out, Ji Yi was already knocking on Chen Bai’s door.

The person who opened the door was Chen Bai. When he saw Ji Yi dressed in a hospital gown, he looked evidently worried. ”Miss Ji? What’s wrong? Are you sick?”

Ji Yi ignored Chen Bai and stared right at him with her pitch-black, large pupils and asked, ”He left because of what happened online, didn’t he?”

Chen Bai was stunned by Ji Yi’s question, but shortly after, he moved aside. ”Miss Ji, please come in first.”

Ji Yi stood her ground and stubbornly repeated her question, which Chen Bai didn’t answer. ”He left Beijing because of that video, didn’t he?”

”Miss Ji...”

Chen Bai kept trying to persuade Ji Yi to come in, but this time, after he merely called her name, she suddenly shrieked: ”He left because of that incident, didn’t he?!”

Chen Bai opened his mouth but didn’t say anything. Zhuang Yi, who just emerged from the elevator, shook her head at Chen Bai and walked over to Ji Yi. She reached out to gently grab Ji Yi’s shoulders and push her into Chen Bai’s apartment.

After the doors were shut, Ji Yi didn’t wait for Chen Bai to step into the living room when she relentlessly asked, ”I’m right, aren’t I?”

There aren’t many unexplainable situations when two people, who are clearly very close, suddenly grow apart.

It was only when that video came out to the public that Ji Yi suddenly realized this. Without waiting for Chen Bai to answer, she continued to ask, ”This was also why he signed me over to Huan Ying Entertainment, right?”

Chen Bai pursed his lips a little and looked out the window.

”He knew this video would come out a long time ago, which was why you guys rushed the production for ’Jiuchong Palace.’ It was also the reason why you guys were rushing work for YC, and why I was handed over in such a hurry. After the situation couldn’t be contained anymore, he had to hastily leave the country. Am I right?!”

As Ji Yi said this, the rims of her eyes turned red.
