Chapter 171: Chapter 171 Jiang Yan: There’s a ghost!!!
The afternoon rain stopped and started again, making the air even more oppressive.
A few people simply moved the dining table into the small courtyard, finding some coolness under the shade of the trees.
The freshly cooked noodles had already been taken out of the pot, and fearing any more mistakes, Jiang Li did not let them add anything to it, not even seasoning. She had boiled it in plain water and served it straightway.
He Yun immediately understood her intentions. After rinsing the noodles in cold water, she added a bit of soy sauce and vinegar.
After a few steps, a barely palatable cold noodle dish was made.
Five people sat like this beneath the wall, staring at each other.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Yan once again brought out the old-model phone the production crew had given him and smacked his lips in dissatisfaction.
“It’s already two o’clock, how come those two haven’t arrived yet? Are we still eating or not?”
Shu Yan held an empty bowl, looking longing, “Maybe it’s because of the rain today; the mountain roads are hard to traverse.”
Hearing this, everyone felt even more disheartened.
Although the dishes in front of them were covered, the food, which already seemed unappetizing, now seemed even less appetizing.
But at least it was still food that could fill their stomachs.
And now they could only wait eagerly, unable to do anything.
Only Jiang Li sat quietly with an air of contentment, seeming to want for nothing.
Wen Jiaojiao licked her lips, her admiration for her deepening.
“Lili, aren’t you hungry?”
Jiang Li shook her head lightly, “Not hungry. If you eat only seventy percent full for every meal, over time you won’t feel very hungry.”
Moreover, she exercised early every day, and her body’s various indicators were already at a superior level, nutritionally balanced; so going hungry for a day wouldn’t make her feel much.
Back in Daqi, she meditated and practiced meditation with her master daily and even set a record of looking fresh and rosy after not eating for three days.
The Mystical Skill also advocates internal to external cultivation, nourishing the body with one’s breath.
It was only because her current body hadn’t been well taken care of in the past, staying up late and overindulging in food and drink, that her condition wasn’t even better now.
After another ten minutes, Jiang Yan, already irritable, stood up and began to pace around the yard.
“Let’s just eat now, they said they would be here at one, and now it’s already half-past two. They’re not hungry, but I am!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a knocking sound came from the gate.
Then, a somewhat tired but still sweet voice came through—
“Is anyone there?”
Apart from He Yun and Jiang Li, everyone else sprang to their feet.
“They’re finally here? And it’s a girl? Didn’t they say there was a guy coming too?” Shu Yan stretched her neck curiously.
Jiang Yan snorted coldly, “Girl or not, no good. They gave me such a low score and made me wait so long; I must have a word!”
[! Is it Su Yinwan and her group?! They finally arrived! My wait wasn’t in vain!]
[The young master is still playing tough at this point, let’s see if he remains tough once the door opens.]
[Why are these people so impatient? Don’t they consider the two new guests at all? They braved the rain and the mountain roads to get here safely, which is already commendable.]
[Why are there so many saints in the live broadcast room? Would you be in a hurry if you had to cook for others and end up waiting with an empty stomach for two hours?]
Wen Jiaojiao was initially planning to join the commotion, but after glancing back at Jiang Li, still poised neatly at the table, she quietly moved back.
That’s right.
They weren’t any big shots; did they deserve her to personally run over to welcome them?
Jiang Yan, with a face full of grievance, pushed open the door.
“You’ve finally arrived, huh? Do you know how long you’ve been late?”
As the door opened, the several people standing outside were fully exposed to his view.
Upon seeing the girl who stood before him, Jiang Yan was stunned.
The audience in the live stream room was getting excited.
“He’s lost it, he’s lost it, so this is the young master’s reaction when he sees his first love goddess.”
“Dying of laughter here, Jiang Yan was just playing tough, but why isn’t he now? Isn’t he still subdued by our Wanwan’s charm?”
Jiang Yan’s fans were all cursing his lack of fighting spirit.
The usually tough and rich young master actually went soft upon seeing the artist he was pursuing?
It was embarrassing for them as they could only watch Su Yinwan’s fans triumph in the comments, while they couldn’t even utter a word in retaliation.
Beauty leads astray, huh!
However, the next scene caught everyone by surprise.
Five seconds after his stupor, Jiang Yan’s face visibly turned pale, and he took a big step back into the yard, pointing at the two people outside and chattered, “Ghost, there’s a ghost!!!”
The audience in the live stream room: ?
Shu Yan, who followed him over: ?
Where did ghosts come from in broad daylight?
When she also stuck her head out to look at the person outside, she too was stunned for a moment.
“Um… are you okay?”
The consecutive reactions froze the friendly smile that Su Yinwan had managed to squeeze out on her face.
Was she that scary?
They’re doing this on purpose, right?
It was at this moment that the camera also happened to pan over.
After seeing the person on the screen, the audience reacted just like Jiang Yan and Shu Yan.
“This… Are you sure this is Su Yinwan? Could she have been switched on the way?”
“Help, no wonder the young master had such a big reaction; I’d be scared too at this sudden sight.”
“This is the so-called ceiling of the entertainment industry? 666, this ceiling really made me laugh.”
“Honestly, the young master looks better in drag.”
It’s true that Su Yinwan’s first appearance at the airport was somewhat stunning.
But with the bumpy ride and the high altitude, her complexion had turned pale as paper long ago.
She had makeup on at first, but after more than two hours of wind and rain, and being forced to wear an ill-fitting raincoat provided by the production team, her face was a mess.
The eyeshadow was all smudged, the lip color gone, mixed with the rain on her face, her whole body soaked through, and her hair damp and sticking to her head, she resembled a paper maché figure that had been soaked in water.
No wonder Jiang Yan got scared like that.
Poor Su Yinwan had been busy hurrying on the road, with no time to look in a mirror, thinking she still looked like the stunning goddess from the airport, gaining a vulnerable air after the rain.
But seeing Jiang Yan who not only did not recognize her but even turned pale and wanted to flee, Su Yinwan began to doubt herself, biting her lip and looking back at Shang Shaojing.
“Brother Shaojing, is there something on my face?”
Shang Shaojing, who only had eyes for his beloved, didn’t notice anything amiss and frowned, “There’s nothing, let’s hurry inside.”
Only then did Su Yinwan turn her gaze back to the doorway where Shu Yan was, and said with a sweet smile:
“You are Sister Shu Yan, right? I’m Su Yinwan, the flying guest this time. It’s very nice to meet you.”
Shu Yan was even more shocked.
This disheveled woman in front of her was actually Su Yinwan?!
Shu Yan had seen her before, at award ceremonies, where she wore haute couture dresses, dazzling and surrounded by stars like the moon.
Not like now, all…
Could this top star really be a flower that withers at the first sight of light?
