Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn Chapter 24: 024 is too abusive

Chapter 24: 024 is too abusive

Yan Shixiu withdrew his gaze, not disturbing Shi Lan as he hurriedly found temporary lodging at the hotel.

The assistant saw this and was even more puzzled, wondering what exactly was his boss thinking?

Yan Shixiu knew he had lost control, the impact of the words “Shi Lan was ambushed” was definitely not any lesser than hearing about Shi Lan’s car accident in Thailand, as if the image of Shi Lan’s funeral was still vivid in his mind.

Having lost her once, he could not make the sa mistake again.

…

Miss Shi did not sleep long in the chair before Sun Ling woke her up; there were too many mosquitoes on the lawn, and Sun Ling was worried that Shi Lan would end up with a swollen head from the bites during the shoot.

“An Lan, when you shoot the last night scene, I’ll go fetch the pillow that the shop said they had delivered; I need to sneak over and get it.”

“Go ahead,” Shi Lan replied, rubbing her stiff neck.

“By the way, An Lan… did you know Boss Yan before?” Sun Ling suddenly asked.

“Why do you ask that?” Shi Lan was startled.

“Just now while you were sleeping, Boss Yan ca over to look at you. He stood behind you for a while, told not to disturb you, and then he left suddenly.”

So, the shadow of that man she saw just now wasn’t an illusion.

Shi Lan was stunned for a mont, noticing Sun Ling’s inquisitive look, she quickly denied, “How would I know why?”

Why don’t you know? You’ve been his human-shaped pillow?

The first person to co to see you after your accident?

Despite everything, Sun Ling felt there was sothing more to it, but Shi Lan’s phone, which she sotis kept, really did not have Yan Shixiu’s contact information. The two of them seed to have no interaction at all; just a strange pair indeed.

After shooting the last character promotional film, Shi Lan was extrely sleepy.

However, the crew notified all the actors of “Smoke Beauty” to have dinner at the hotel that evening.

Thinking of sitting at the sa table with Gu Chengyu and Chen Beini, Shi Lan felt it would upset her stomach, but Director Tang had specifically instructed that Shi Lan must attend.

Shi Lan went back to her room to take a shower and remove her makeup, then went to the hotel’s restaurant with her hair loose and her face bare. An Lan’s body was still young; even though she had stayed up all night, her skin looked fair and gleaming without makeup, fragile as porcelain.

Sun Ling waited at the entrance of the restaurant, guiding Shi Lan to the main creative team’s table.

At that mont, Director Tang and two assistant directors were already seated, with the National Couple sitting to Director Tang’s left, intimately playing with their phones.

Shi Lan’s seat was to the right of Director Tang, and to her right, there was another empty seat that seed more like the head seat.

The atmosphere and the situation were actually quite awkward.

Everyone knew there was bad blood between Shi Lan and Gu Chengyu, though it differed vastly from what others imagined.

Shi Lan, like a fawning dog, should have been jealous and sucking up to Gu Chengyu at various occasions. Yet, she showed no intention of doing so, instead displaying a visible irritation.

She seed to not even care about the National Couple. Chen Beini was dressed exquisitely, ready as if for a grand occasion. But Shi Lan? Completely bare-faced, not even wanting to glance at the couple sitting across from her. If there was one word to describe her attitude, it would be… disdain.

“Director Tang, is everyone here?” The staff, noticing all the main creators were present, intended to remind them to comnce dining.

Director Tang looked up at the empty seat next to Shi Lan and shook his head, “No rush.”

The staff at the other tables kept an eye on the activity at this table, gossiping secretly:

“Speaking of which, An Lan really has it tough, having to watch the National Couple flaunt their love every day. Now they are even showing off right across from her. Moreover, everyone in the crew praises them as a match made in heaven, a golden boy and girl; it’s just too much suffering for An Lan.”

“The National Couple is holding hands at the table now, isn’t that deliberate?”
