Chapter 184: Chapter 185 Simon White (1)

After receiving a firm answer, she set down her phone.

Xue Feifei was right. Their situations were similar now: they were in limbo, neither high nor low. To call them poor? She made tens of thousands every month, and Feifei was about to take the senior designer professional exam, nearing a promotion. Despite Feifei mostly playing second or third lead in web dramas, those gigs still brought in hundreds of thousands, far more than your average job.

However, the unfortunate thing was, besides the medical costs needed for her mother, her enemies were too powerful. She needed to climb high for a chance to fight back.

The same went for Feifei. Even though her father’s debt had been paid off, who knows what changes the future held? Additionally, the entertainment industry was a fearsomely treacherous place with quick succession. Feifei was already 27, which might be fairly young in other professions, but in the entertainment industry, it was nearing “old age”.

Both she and Feifei faced crises. They both had to strive hard for a chance to change their current situations.

Despite Feifei drinking the night before, she woke up early the next day, eating a breakfast of boiled vegetables, sweet potato, and egg whites, followed by thick black coffee, even going for a morning workout to cut down on swelling.

Lu Weixi didn’t go home for the night, and no one cared. With Qin Zhiyou and Yang Mogui absent, she wouldn’t be questioned even if she roamed around outside for several nights. She drove to work, took some formal time off, and arranged her workload.

Although the cruise would only last four days and three nights, with a weekend in between, she didn’t know if there would be further delays, so she took off a few extra days just in case.

After arranging everything, she went to Hanhai Shopping again. When she was redeeming her prize, she specifically asked, “For the prize this time, do I need to attend any awarding ceremony, like meeting with your president or anything? Is he arranging this event?”

The receptionist stared at her blankly, “No, you don’t need to. This is a notice from our event department. We’ve confirmed with the first and second prize winners before notifying you because they couldn’t attend. The plane and cruise tickets have already been bought; you just have to scan your ID to board the ship. You don’t have to attend any award-giving ceremony, our president is very busy.”

Lu Weixi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The cruise was heading to a tropical location for at least four or five days. After finishing her work, she went home to pack her bags. As expected, Qin Zhiyou was not home, and no one asked where she had been the day before.

Before leaving, she made a special trip to the hospital to see her mother. Her mother was doing really well this time, visibly in better spirits and working hard on rehab. When she asked her in a slow, feeble voice, “How are things with you and Zhiyou?”

In front of her mother, Lu Weixi had to act like everything was fine, “Mother, don’t worry, I’m doing very well. Zhiyou and I are also doing very well, his mother even stayed at our place a while ago.”

Although Lu’s mother had been mentally unstable for the past six months, she had heard the gossip about Qin Zhiyou in the past four years. She tried to pat her daughter’s hand, “If you’re not happy, don’t force yourself.”

“Mm.” Hearing these words from her mother gave her infinite strength. No matter the difficulties or dangers, she was not afraid because she still had a haven to rely on.

However, this time at the hospital, she didn’t see Zhao Zihao. While chatting with the caregiver, she mentioned, “I heard that Doctor Zhao took a few days off again..”
