chapter-159
Xie Feng was sweating bullets when he found out that Shen Xinya was actually part of the Shen family in Hong Kong and he had scoffed at that family just a minute ago!
As if he wanted to lower the rising temperature of his body caused by the embarrassment, he took a glass of water and started drinking it quickly.
It was then that Yin Yue, who was looking at everything with humor from one side, gave Xie Feng another big surprise. With a casual smile, she leaned slightly closer to Xie Feng and whispered softly:
"Oh, in case you didn't know... Xinya is THAT Shen Xinya... You know, the most famous superstar of the entire Asian continent and the woman who publicly received the title of the most beautiful woman in Asia."
*Cough... Cough...*Xie Feng almost spits out the water he was drinking! He forced himself to swallow the water in his mouth and, consequently, began to cough furiously as he looked at Yin Yue with his eyes wide open.
After he stopped coughing, Xie Feng patted his chest and asked carefully:
"Excuse me... I didn't hear you. What did you say?" He still thought he had misheard.
"As I said... Xinya is the super famous singer, with over a billion of fans!"
Xie Feng breathed some cold air as he looked at the woman sitting next to him giving a sign of victory as she raised two fingers from one hand.
"This..."
Xie Feng did not know what to say, so his mouth opened and closed slightly a couple of times.Who was Shen Xinya? A young woman in her early twenties, the most beautiful woman seen in Asia for the last two millennia! Many people claimed that even empresses and queens of the past could not compete with the overwhelming beauty of Shen Xinya.
With over a billion fans, anyone who dares to make her suffer would be no different than trying to kidnap the queen bee from various honeycombs! Who was willing to be persecuted by the whole world? With so many fans, even in America, you would be found!
But, most importantly, she was one of Shen Duan's two children! Shen Duan, a business genius who not only formed a commercial empire that covered all of Asia and even spread throughout Europe and, unlike many successful businessmen, Shen Duan formed his fortune without stepping on other people's bodies, so his enemies were not too many in comparison.
A single sneeze from Shen Duan could make the whole economy shake and the foundations of the planet itself would be shaken!
"Hehehe~ Xiao Feng, surprised?" Shen Xinya smiled. Her beautiful eyes curved sweetly, forming a small half moon.
"Girl, how could I not be surprised Who would have thought... Who would have thought..."
Then, Xie Feng looked at her with a genuinely happy smile: "I am so glad to know that you led a good life... I am so happy to know that you finally succeeded in fulfilling your dream of becoming a famous singer."
When she heard and saw the genuine happiness in Xie Feng's eyes as he looked at her, Shen Xinya's lips curved into a smile so beautiful that even her own fans would be surprised... A smile of genuine happiness formed by receiving a compliment from someone truly appreciated. Unfortunately, that smile was covered, so no one could see it.
"You see? I told you it! Tell me, did you learn to play the piano like I asked you when we were little?" Shen Xinya asked with a pout. Her expression was obvious as the scarf on her face lifted slightly, making Xie Feng can't help but laugh softly.
"In fact, I learned to play the piano. When Xie Yao's family adopted me at that time, I still remembered your insistence So I ended up learning to play the piano." Suddenly, Xie Feng's gaze went slightly out of focus and he muttered, "Those were really good times. Really..."
The death of Xie Yao's parents did not only sadden her. Xie Feng was also very sad because he too saw them as real parents. Although they were not related by blood, Xie Feng received warmth and family love. He naturally loved them as a real family... But, being the man of the house and the eldest of the two, Xie Feng had the right and obligation to be the support of Xie Yao.
If Xie Feng had allowed himself to be swept away by sadness and depression, Xie Yao would never have been able to recover from such a trauma... That was something he could not afford.
"That's great! Xiao Feng, when we arrive in Beijing you must show me how good you have become! I still want to sing with you on stage. Do you see? Even now I'm still singing as a vocal soloist!"
Probably due to the joy of meeting again, Shen Xinya was so excited that she didn't even notice the look of sadness that went through Xie Feng's eyes for a little second.
"I am sorry... But I don't think that's possible." With a complicated look and a bitter smile, Xie Feng shook his head.
"Eh?" The bright and happy smile on the beauty's face slowly disappeared. Somehow, she realized that things were not so simple.
"Why not?" After hesitating for a moment, she asked carefully as she looked into his eyes.
*Sigh*... Xie Feng sighed and with a smile that was hard to describe, he said slowly: "Although I am really very happy for you, the life you live and the life I live are like worlds apart..."
With a slight sadness in his eyes, he looked at her: "Many things are different from when we were kids... Many things have changed."
Xie Feng was more than willing to sing a song with her. But many times, the adult world was cruel. No matter how much we wanted something, there were many times when we had no choice but to surrender to the responsibilities we carried.
Since Xie Feng obtained his power, the first thing he did was learn to defend rather than attack... Because he wanted to protect Xie Yao from any rain and storm that tried to touch her. While he slept, while she slept, while they took a shower, while they were at the university studying, while they ate dinner; at all times, Xie Feng always watched over and protected Xie Yao without her knowing anything.
There was only one exception to this rule... When Xie Feng played the piano, he always played from the depths of his heart, so for a few minutes, that vigilance over Xie Yao disappeared.
And if something happens to her? If through carelessness on his part something bad happens to Xie Yao, Xie Feng could never forgive him. He even reproached himself for being careless in college when he went to the music hall and relaxed his vigilance in a moment of stupidity.
Therefore, Xie Feng could not accept Shen Xinya's proposal. She was a person loved by all, a person who lived in the light like a heavenly fairy...
But what about Xie Feng? On that night of destruction, the number of people that Xie Feng killed was several tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. If people would know something like that, how could he not be hated and repudiated? What's more, Xie Feng killed many other people over the years.
Qin Lim's team was a clear example. Although Xie Feng was not to blame for what happened, many people in that attack group had families, fathers, mothers, sons, wives... But Xie Feng destroyed all that.
Therefore, while Shen Xinya was light, Xie Feng was undoubtedly darkness. She could enjoy her dream life, but he had to take responsibility for the obligations that were placed on his shoulders.
To say that they both lived in separate worlds was not too much exaggerated.
Of course, all these issues were not topics that Xie Feng could talk about with Shen Xinya. He was genuinely happy for her, and he wanted her to have as normal a life as possible. Anyway she couldn't do much either, there was no point in dragging her into a big problem that she wasn't part of.
What Xie Feng didn't know was that in truth, although she did not know the reasons and did not know too many details; Shen Xinya had a little idea of the reasons why Xie Feng was saying that.
That night in her hotel, Yin Yue hacked into the security cameras on the Laoshan Highway. Shen Xinya saw Xie Feng in that place and, although the cameras were disconnected before she could see more, she could imagine approximately what had happened that night because the next morning, her father called her to warn her not to leave her apartment too much and explained what had happened to Nangong Chen.
For all these reasons, Shen Xinya knew that Xie Feng was not living a normal life.
"You..." Shen Xinya looked at Xie Feng with angry eyes and for a moment did not know what to say.
So what if he killed people? She still considered him her best friend! Even after so many years she was still a little crush on him! However, he wanted to exclude her with a few words? There was no way she would agree!
"Listen to me carefully..." Shen Xinya looked at Xie Feng like a little wild cat, slightly surprising him.
But before she could continue her words, cries from the front of the plane silenced her.
At the same time, a cruel smile formed on Xie Feng's face.
'Good timing...'
