Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: 037 This is simply straightforward flirting.

Shi Lan, seeing her fearful demeanor, took the phone and pressed the answer button.

“An Lan, you’ve gained about two hundred thousand followers just this morning. Did you see it? I’m a bit excited now, I… I forgot what I wanted to say,” Tang Ze rambled.

Shi Lan was irritated by his shout, immediately moving the phone ten centimeters away and disdainfully said, “I have three scenes this afternoon.”

“You shoot! You shoot well! We’ll speak with our talent.”

“You’re not suspecting I’m possessed?” Shi Lan seized the opportunity to ask.

“Even if it’s a ghost, it’s a good ghost!”

Shi Lan: “…”

It’s really not any good ghost, Shi Lan thought to herself.

…

After the National Couple found out about the major uproar caused by Shi Lan’s video, they were fuming. Luckily, this incident didn’t cause much damage to their reputation, as their fans were good at making excuses–Gu Chengyu because he was annoyed by An Lan, and Chen Beini out of jealousy. With many fans, they could control the general direction of public opinion.

Finally, as they exited the guidance center, Gu Chengyu, clutching his phone and suppressing his rage, looked down on Shi Lan from a high position and said, “After today, we are completely clear of each other. I never owed you anything to begin with. From now on, our acting will show the truth!”

“Sure, we’ll see what level you’re at this afternoon.”

“Hmph.” Gu Chengyu looked at Shi Lan with disdain, as he was well aware of An Lan’s acting level.

Couldn’t even graduate from film school, played a few secondary female roles in dramas, and now she dares to challenge him?

Shi Lan didn’t pay attention to Gu Chengyu’s contempt and returned to the hotel with Sun Ling.

It wasn’t that she was being arrogant, but the acting skills of a stage actor were honed through relentless practice, whereas Gu Chengyu was a popular yet inexperienced actor. He always had a foundation in acting, but he didn’t have time to delve into deeper aspects. Hence, among young actors, Shi Lan had the confidence to dominate the scene.

Sun Ling followed behind Shi Lan closely, but her focus was on the heat and comments on Weibo. Knowing that the video she posted was gaining fans instead of attracting criticism, she felt a relief as if her death sentence had been commuted.

After returning to the hotel, Sun Ling went to get food for Shi Lan, but because she was too engrossed in her phone, she left without closing the door.

When the hotel cleaner passed room 1117 and thought there was no one inside due to the door being open–a professional habit–she entered to check if cleaning was needed but walked right into Shi Lan coming out of the bathroom.

“Hello, guest. I’m really sorry, I saw the door was open and thought there was no one inside. Do you need cleaning?”

“No need, go out.” Shi Lan sat down on the sofa and responded.

The cleaner apologized while stepping out. Shi Lan stared at the door for a moment, thinking that Sun Ling could sometimes be careless.

When Sun Ling returned with food, Shi Lan told her about the cleaner’s interruption.

Sun Ling immediately apologized, “I was constantly scrolling through comments, might have been distracted. I will be more careful next time.”

It would have been normal for someone to enter the room, but remember, on the bed of the female tycoon, there was a human-shaped pillow.

Shi Lan noted the hotel’s food quality had improved recently and didn’t feel like pursuing the matter further, but just then, a WeChat notification distracted her.

Shi Lan glanced at it and saw it was from Shi Yan and Shi Xiu, she ignored it and set it aside.

Mr. Yan: “Well done.”

As for the man’s behavior of making unnecessary small talk, Miss Shi showed a look of disdain.

It was clearly a forced flirtation, and the kind that left one unsure how to respond.

Shi Lan decided to ignore him for a couple of days to let him understand her stance. After giving him the cold shoulder, he should realize she was rejecting any flirtation, right?

Sun Ling accidentally saw the WeChat page on Shi Lan’s phone and asked, “You can ignore Mr. Yan too?”

“I would actually like to respond, but you tell me how should I respond to that?” Shi Lan handed her the phone and asked with a slightly harsh tone.
