Before Jiang An left, she specially told Li Mei, “Mom, I might have to choose for a long time. I might not be back for dinner. Eat first when it’s time.”
Li Mei said disapprovingly, “You’re going to work overseas in two days. Our family has less time to eat together. If you’re hungry, well eat something else to fill our stomachs first. It’s fine. Your father and I will wait for you.”
Jiang An couldn’t refuse, so she could only agree. “Alright, I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
As soon as Jiang An left the house, she rushed to the mall where the movie theater was.
Baisheng Mall was an old luxury mall in Jingdu City. There were two floors in the mall that were specially used for art exhibitions.
After shopping for a long time, Jiang An chose a crystal vase with the theme of a flower goddess. “How much is this vase?”
The staff looked at the price tag and revealed a standard smile with eight teeth. “Hello, Miss. This vase costs 45,899 yuan.”
Jiang An personally checked it. After confirming that it was flawless, she got someone to wrap it up. “Can you wrap another layer of wrapping paper outside the gift box? I’m gifting it.”
Could it be that the staff’s attitude became better when she encountered such a straightforward buyer? She immediately said, “Sure. Miss, please follow me to the front desk to choose the wrapping paper.”
After Jiang An made her choice, she stood at the side and waited. She did not expect to be seen by an old acquaintance here.
Tan Si was wearing a pair of large sunglasses and a cap on her head. She was watching Jiang An’s every move from the corner. She raised her phone and took a few photos. “It’s really a narrow road for enemies. I can’t believe we bumped into each other after just going out on a day of training break.”
“She’s really rich now. In the past, she was just a b*tch who picked up my leftovers. She’s really lucky to be reincarnated into such a good family!”
Jiang An was now a rather famous actor. Her cap and sunglasses were all necessary. However, Jiang An and Tan Si had grown up together. Others might not be able to recognize them, but if the two of them saw each other, they would definitely be able to recognize each other at a glance.
Tan Si deliberately hid in Jiang An’s blind spot, so Jiang An did not notice her.
In addition, she had to rush for the next showing. After Jiang An finished shopping, she hurriedly stuffed it into her backpack and jogged to the cinema.
Tan Si took out her mask and put it on. She followed behind Jiang An, preparing to see who she was planning to give the gift to. She chuckled softly. “Haha, don’t let me catch you with anything on you. Otherwise, I’ll let you know what it means to lose your reputation!”
Jiang An rushed to the entrance of the cinema upstairs. She saw Zou Bai standing in the crowd at a glance. The cold aura on his body made him seem a little out of place in the mortal world.
Even the place where Zou Bai was standing seemed to be a vacuum. There was no one within a few meters. It was not that others did not want to approach him, but they did not dare and did not have the chance.
Zou Yi and Zou Er were standing not far away.
Jiang An pressed her hand to his chest and ran to Zou Bai’s side, panting. “I’m sorry I’m late.”
Zou Bai reached out and took Jiang An’s bag. He patted Jiang An’s back with the other hand that was holding the tickets and said unhurriedly, “There’s no hurry. If we’re late, we’ll go in later. If we’re late, we’ll be late. Don’t be in such a hurry to run next time. There are many people in the mall. It won’t be good if we accidentally bump into someone.”
Tan Si tried her best to identify Zou Bai, but she could not recall any relevant memories. “It doesn’t look like he’s from the entertainment industry. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t have forgotten his looks and temperament.”
Just as Tan Si was about to take out her phone to take a few photos, she heard a sound from afar.
“Are you crazy? Give me back my phone.”
“Why are you taking our phones? Don’t you believe that I’ll call the police and have you arrested?!”
The two young girls were arguing with the two men in black. The two men in black quickly tapped a few times on their phones before returning the phones to the girls. “Don’t take photos randomly. There are some people you can’t take pictures of.”
The same scene was playing out in two other places at the entrance of the cinema. Tan Si immediately realized that Zou Bai was just as he looked. He was not someone to be trifled with.
Tan Si knew her limits and stuffed her phone back into her bag. “Jiang An is good. It seems that she has hooked up with someone better. No wonder she has completely cut off all contact with Sea City. She wants to erase the past and start over.”
When Tan Si saw Jiang An and Zou Bai enter the cinema, she did not stay any longer and turned to leave..
