Chapter 251: Someone Else's Love

"He is! An annoying little spirit, but he belongs to me," Yun Xiangxiang shook her hips shamelessly.

Wei Shanshan was jealous of her slender waist. She tried to tickle her. Xiangxiang quickly dodged. She disliked getting tickled.

They played around before taking their baths. As they lay on their bed, Shanshan lamented, "Finding someone outside of this industry is probably better."

"The grass is always greener on the other side. But when Cupid strikes, you won't care."

Xiangxiang was going to be a spinster before she met Song Mian. Marriage could be a disaster for a celebrity like them.

Xiangxiang was only testing the waters when she met Song Mian. But then she was quickly drawn in and knew the taste of love.

A family of celebrities would have twice the attention. If they had any children, one of them must retire to take care of them. Actors were busy people.

"You must not see each other frequently," said Shanshan.

'We spend eighty percent of our time separated," Xiangxiang calculated.

"Aren't you worried about the problems you might face?" Shanshan was worried.

Xiangxiang was relaxed. "We knew our jobs and the things we had to face when we met. The knot wasn't simply tied."

"But the real deal will never be what you have in mind," Shanshan broke up with her ex because they spent more time being separated.

They used to be a sweet, happy couple, but the distance was just too high of a hurdle for them to overcome.

"Everyone's different," Xiangxiang couldn't be too confident. "We put our duties first."

Both of them prioritized their duties. No matter if it was their lives, their careers, or their family.

A sense of duty would keep them in line, reducing their chances of making mistakes.

"Some are dutiful too." Yun Xiangxiang added, "Perhaps life has treated them harshly, and they had to give up their relationship."

Xiangxiang felt that Shanshan's breakup was due to this unless he fell for another woman.

Any newbie in the industry would be busy as a bee unless their company supported them.

They didn't even have time for their life, let alone a relationship. If their partner acted up, that would spell the end of the relationship.

Shanshan agreed after she gave it some thought, "Maybe..."

"It's late. Go to sleep. I'll be off to Shanghai tomorrow," Xiangxiang didn't want to talk about Shanshan's sad history.

"I can't," Wei Shanshan's mind was in a mess.

Xiangxiang shifted the topic, "How long before your filming wraps up?"

"Two months, at least." Wei Shanshan estimated.

It was normal for dramas to take at least six months to film. Xiangxiang wouldn't take dramas because of this.

She could forget about studying if she starred in dramas. The leads usually had massive workloads. Films were relatively easier to do.

The scenes for films would take a lot of work. Every film would take three to four months, but she could study at the same time.

Under normal circumstances, a film usually wouldn't run for too long. They would often run from three to five months. That was not the case for dramas.
