Chapter 134
———————❖———————
Jiang
Ningning wished to see Qi Yuan again, thus she took care of her makeup and
dressed extraordinarily delicate today.
Chi
Ying smiled at Jiang Ningning's blatant love for Qi Yuan. She was acting like an
eager young girl who wants her crush’s attention.
Jiang Ningning was holding a paper bag, which contained a diary with slightly
yellowed pages. It was thick and probably has
more than 100 pages. According to Jiang Ningning, it records her youthful and
secretive thoughts toward her love all of which she wants to say to Qi Yuan.
Chi
Ying smiled and said, " What secret? Your feelings are already announced
to the world ."
"Yes,
I want to announce it to the world." Jiang Ningning was unbashful but
proud.
With
her crescent eyes, she said, "I don’t want to burn my chances. If I missed
confessing today, I might regret it years later. I don’t want to lose this
opportunity.“
Her
plan, like every ardent fan, is to rush a confession and show her passion in
front of Qi Yuan. As for whether or not
Qi Yuan accepts is another matter.
She
thought if she doesn’t say it, she can only look from a distance like duckweed
in the vast sea of people. She had tasted that sour feeling for many years. She
felt too humble, too desperate, just like a speck of dust.
Although,
the probability was only as big as winning the lottery. She might still have a
slim chance of being remembered by Qi Yuan.
Jiang
Ningning thought her appearance is unique and her figure is above average. She thought maybe Qi Yuan likes her type.
...
Jiang
Ningning not only brought a diary and cute gifts but also a lot of her precious
things. If she’s lucky, she might get a few more autographs from him.
Chi
Ying suddenly remembered from the original body’s memory, that she also had
such a diary. It's just that the person
she wrote about is not Qi Yuan, but Lu Jingyan.
If
there are no lapses in her memory, the diary that has been dusted in the past
should be placed in the study.
Chi
Ying never went to look for it. She felt the original body deserved that
privacy. Although they share the same body, their souls are different. After
all, the diary was written by the original body, and Chi Ying still had a hazy
impression of it.
She
couldn't recall the specific content but one detail that deeply shocked her was
that the original body collected every magazine which included Lu Jingyan's
interviews and news. She also cut out each magazine and meticulously glued them
in her diary. Naturally, the original body also copied every sentence Lu
Jingyan said in the interview. As Chi Ying recalled, her chest couldn't help
but burst with bitterness.
Although
she was born lacking in love and has no way of putting herself in the original
body's state of mind, she still felt moved and sad.
If
the original body told Lu Jingyan her feelings, would the ending have changed?
Soon, Chi Ying silently shook her head and quickly dismissed that idea.
What
was she thinking? It's just a novel ... She shouldn’t forget that the original
body was just a female supporting role.
...
Ten
minutes later, guests of the banquet entered the venue one after another,
including some relatively unknown lighting engineers in the group who also
gathered.
Only
Qi Yuan was not present.
Jiang
Ningning's excited eyes gradually dimmed and her delicate brows wrinkled
bitterly. She sighed softly, "Life is really difficult, Yingying what
should I do to catch up to Qi Da's level?"
"Maybe
there’s just a traffic jam on the road, just wait and see?" she said
comforting her.
Jiang
Ningning shook her head, "He wouldn't come, Qi Da is so busy and this
movie may just be a small part of his acting career."
"You
can't say that. Director Gu’s films are valuable and important that actors take
them seriously."
"Well,
yes." Jiang Ningning nodded and immediately cast her gaze on Director
Gu.
However,
she wondered why did Director Gu kept on staring in their direction? Jiang
Ningning was stared at for a while, so she smiled awkwardly at Director Gu. Gu
Yuanchen just looked back at her lightly.
Jiang
Ningning had the impression Director Gu was watching Chi Ying and it wasn’t the
first time.
She
smirked slightly and said, "Why do I feel that you mean something to
Director Gu?"
Jiang
Ningning rubbed her fingertips, "Director Gu is a young and talented
person, he is stable and he has a lot of money. I think he is reliable."
Chi
Ying shook her head.
Seeing
Chi Ying's serious appearance, Jiang Ningning hurriedly said: "Forget it,
your relationship is amazing. If you don't have chemistry, it just means that
he is not the right person. But don't be discouraged Yingying, you are the
person I don't worry about the most."
"..."
Chi
Ying accompanied Jiang Ningning to look forward to the appearance of Qi Yuan in
the next second and their eyes stayed looking at the entrance.
…
In
the end, Shu Bai was the one who entered. She pushed open the door holding a red
wine in her arms. She was wearing a white shirt and a dark brown skirt.
Shu
Bai's eyes met Chi Ying's for half a second, she staggered and her hands shook
a little.
Shu
Bai didn't say a word and silently poured wine for everyone present. She looks
gentle, quiet, and very well-behaved. She walked around in a circle and
received a series of thank yous.
Only
Gu Yuanchen was looking at her quietly. He
remembered every female star who auditioned for him.
Finally,
Shu Bai walked toward Chi Ying's seat. She was still the same as when they
first met. Timid. It's just that her hands are shaking badly.
...
Chi
Ying frowned at her shaking hands. She thought how could she not spill the wine?
But sure enough, a large part of the liquid spilled. It was soon smudged on the
tablecloth and had a big red stain.
Chi
Ying predicted what would happen, so she dodged in time but her skirt still inevitably
got wine stains.
It
was impossible to say she didn’t care. After all, the dresses Chi Yu bought for
her were always expensive. When it comes to things for his sister, Chi Yu
spends money generously without batting an eye. Chi Ying's eyelashes trembled
and she felt bad for the skirt.
Shu
Bai was truly stunned. God knows, she didn't mean it. She avoided Chi Ying's
gaze, her voice trembling: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry ..."
Chi
Ying looked at Shu Bai in confusion because she really couldn't see if this
delicate and timid little girl had any malice toward her.
She
turned around and came back to her sense, but she can’t do anything. She
wondered since Shu Bai is the heroine of this world, why is she so inferior and
cowardly? She behaves like a patient with severe social anxiety.
There
might be something wrong.
Chi
Ying's gaze unconsciously focused on several large pieces of bruised and
swollen skin on Shu Bai's legs, it was shocking. It looked like she got a
beating.
They
attracted more or less attention from the others. Even if she was curious,
asking Shu Bai would make her seem petty and careless.
Chi
Ying waved her hand and said, " Forget it, just pay attention next time”
Hearing this, Shu Bai secretly raised her eyes and glanced at her, then bowed tremblingly, "Thank you."
Her
waist was bent down, but the corners of her eyes were sour. She can't help but
feel uncomfortable. In the end, Chi Ying-senpai is always bright and beautiful and
she was always inferior.
That
dress was something she could never afford to wear in this life.

T/N: I feel kinda bad for Shu Bai... for now
