Chapter 1351 - 1351 Famous
1351 Famous
Jian Ai followed Bai Zhou’s words and looked at everyone. Looking at the people in front of her, she couldn’t help but smile and say gently, “If they want to stay, stay.”
Jian Ai had not told Bai Zhou that she would be leaving for a while. She wanted to wait until after the New Year.
As for whether the twelve guards chose to stay in China, Jian Ai would not interfere. It was all up to them.
When she came out of Bai Zhou’s apartment, the sky was already dark. In the north, the days were short, and the nights were long. It was completely dark around five in the afternoon.
Thinking that her mother should be at Yaochi for work at this time, Jian Ai thought she would go home tomorrow, so she took out her phone and called Qinghuan and Guan Tao.
She had been away for a long time, and Qinghuan’s movie project had already wrapped up. Moreover, the final examination was in a few days.
Yuanxiang Restaurant was a Sichuan restaurant Jian Ai and the rest often visited efore.
Jian Ai booked a private room. Not long after, Guan Tao arrived.
“Xiao Ai!”
As soon as they met, the two of them hugged intimately. Guan Tao’s face was red from the cold, and she looked to be in good condition. Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile and say, “You seem to have gained weight!”
Guan Tao chuckled but didn’t answer her. Instead, she said to Jian Ai, “You’ve been gone for so long. There was no news at all. I thought you were kidnapped!”
“It’s not that exaggerated.” Jian Ai pulled Guan Tao to sit down and smiled. “I have some things to do recently, but I’m already done and preparing to return to school.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai changed the topic and asked, “How was it? Did anything happen while I was away? Did everything go smoothly between you and Gao Yang?”
At the mention of Gao Yang, Guan Tao’s face didn’t turn red. She nodded gently. “We’re quite good, but his family found out that he was working at a hamburger shop with me…”
“Ah?” Jian Ai was shocked. She reacted and couldn’t help but laugh. “Then their family knows he’s dating you?”
Guan Tao shook her head. “No, Gao Yang said he didn’t say it. It’s just that I think he should have been exposed. After all, with Gao Yang’s personality, he definitely wouldn’t go to a hamburger shop to work. If he does this, others will think that there’s a reason.”
Jian Ai nodded in understanding. However, when she saw Guan Tao’s nervous expression, she couldn’t help but comfort her. “Don’t be so nervous. Nothing happened, right? Moreover, with Gao Yang around, I think he’ll handle things well!”
Guan Tao nodded slightly. She was still a little afraid.
The main reason was that Guan Tao still felt inferior. Putting aside Gao Yang’s conditions, he had the Gao Tong Group, which belonged to one of the four major families in Baiyun. Just his name alone gave people invisible pressure.
Guan Tao wanted nothing else from Gao Yang. She just wanted to date Gao Yang seriously.
As the two of them were talking, the door of the private room suddenly opened. Then, a tightly wrapped person rushed into the private room and closed the door.
Jian Ai and Guan Tao were stunned at the same time. Before Jian Ai could react, Guan Tao chuckled and said, “Qinghuan, you scared us!”
Taking off the scarf that covered half of her face, Jian Ai saw Qinghuan’s face. She couldn’t help but say, “Is it that cold? You’ve wrapped yourself up like a mummy!”
“Xiao Ai, you still don’t know?” Guan Tao looked at Jian Ai.
Jian Ai was stunned. “Know what? Why?”
Guan Tao immediately explained, “They already broadcasted Qinghuan’s first drama on television. It’s the television drama she, Yun Buyao, and Lu Xiao filmed, ‘There Will Be An Angel Who Loves You on My Behalf’!”
“It’s already broadcasted?” Jian Ai was slightly shocked. She initially thought that they would broadcast this drama during the winter break, but she didn’t expect it to be broadcasted when she left.
At this moment, Qinghuan took off her down jacket and rushed up to hug Jian Ai’s neck from behind. She said unhappily, “You’re amazing. It’s fine if she disappeared, but you’re not paying attention to me! Tell me, where did you go?!”
“I went abroad!” Jian Ai quickly begged for mercy. “I’m too busy to care! Tell me more!”
When Qinghuan heard this, she let go of Jian Ai. After sitting down at the side, she shook her hair smugly. “Sigh, I’m already famous. Isn’t it annoying?!”
Looking at Qinghuan’s smug expression, Jian Ai couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “Look at how smug you are!”
“Xiao Ai, she’s really famous!” Guan Tao quickly said, “Yun Buyao’s drama has a guaranteed rating. With the national male god, Lu Xiao, it became a huge hit once it was broadcasted!”
“Now, Qinghuan is surrounded in school every day. People keep recognizing her when she walks on the street!”
Qinghuan sighed helplessly at the side. “Otherwise, why would I wrap myself up with only my eyes exposed? Fortunately, it’s winter. No matter how tightly I wrap myself up, it’s normal to look like this. If it were summer, I wouldn’t have anywhere to hide!”
She was already famous, but Qinghuan felt vexed. She even pretended that she had not received benefits.
Jian Ai couldn’t help but look at Qinghuan and say, “Why? You don’t like to be recognized? You don’t like to be surrounded?”
“I don’t like it,” Qinghuan said bluntly. “Although I’m already mentally prepared, I will be a public figure once the drama gets broadcasted. My private space will be squeezed, but I’m still not used to it!”
“You have no choice. As a celebrity, you have to bear this,” Jian Ai said. “You’ve just broadcasted your first drama, and this is just the beginning. When you become more famous in the future, you might have a fan club. By then, it will be much more serious than this.”
Jian Ai was just reminding Qinghuan to be mentally prepared. In the entertainment circle in the future, the situation of actors and singers was even more difficult. There was basically no privacy to speak of. Some fanboys and fangirls even checked their idol’s flight seat number clearly. It was even more common for them to chase cars and block hotels.
“I know.” Qinghuan pursed her lips helplessly. “I just want to film well. Anything else is fine. I don’t care.”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile when she heard that. She knew Qinghuan. She was not a hypocritical person, let alone a liar. If she were to be asked about her relationship in front of the reporters in the future, she might reveal Yan Tian.
As the boss of the management company, the only thing Jian Ai could do was to protect Qinghuan on the premise that she remained real!
The dishes they ordered were quickly served. Jian Ai had not eaten Sichuan food for a long time. Smelling the spicy taste, her taste buds hung up. She quickly picked up her chopsticks and ate. The three of them chatted as they ate.
“Xiao Ai, why did you suddenly go abroad again?” Guan Tao asked.
If she remembered correctly, Jian Ai had already gone abroad a few times this year. The two of them had grown up together and knew each other very well. Jian Ai had changed too much this year, and the changes in all aspects were very obvious. In fact, Guan Tao had long been puzzled. However, she had been waiting for Jian Ai to tell her, so she didn’t ask.
