Jian Ai followed Bai Zhouâs words and looked at everyone. Looking at the people in front of her, she couldnât help but smile and say gently, âIf they want to stay, stay.â
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 Zhouâs 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 Qinghuanâs 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.
âXiao Ai!â
As soon as they met, the two of them hugged intimately. Guan Taoâs face was red from the cold, and she looked to be in good condition. Jian Ai couldnât help but smile and say, âYou seem to have gained weight!â
Guan Tao chuckled but didnât answer her. Instead, she said to Jian Ai, âYouâve been gone for so long. There was no news at all. I thought you were kidnapped!â
âItâs not that exaggerated.â Jian Ai pulled Guan Tao to sit down and smiled. âI have some things to do recently, but Iâm already done and preparing to return to school.â
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai changed the topic and asked, âHow was it? Did anything happen while I was away? Did everything go smoothly between you and Gao Yang?â
At the mention of Gao Yang, Guan Taoâs face didnât turn red. She nodded gently. âWeâre quite good, but his family found out that he was working at a hamburger shop with meâŠâ
âAh?â Jian Ai was shocked. She reacted and couldnât help but laugh. âThen their family knows heâs dating you?â
Guan Tao shook her head. âNo, Gao Yang said he didnât say it. Itâs just that I think he should have been exposed. After all, with Gao Yangâs personality, he definitely wouldnât go to a hamburger shop to work. If he does this, others will think that thereâs a reason.â
Jian Ai nodded in understanding. However, when she saw Guan Taoâs nervous expression, she couldnât help but comfort her. âDonât be so nervous. Nothing happened, right? Moreover, with Gao Yang around, I think heâll handle things well!â
Guan Tao nodded slightly. She was still a little afraid.
The main reason was that Guan Tao still felt inferior. Putting aside Gao Yangâs 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, âQinghuan, you scared us!â
Taking off the scarf that covered half of her face, Jian Ai saw Qinghuanâs face. She couldnât help but say, âIs it that cold? Youâve wrapped yourself up like a mummy!â
âXiao Ai, you still donât know?â Guan Tao looked at Jian Ai.
Jian Ai was stunned. âKnow what? Why?â
Guan Tao immediately explained, âThey already broadcasted Qinghuanâs first drama on television. Itâs the television drama she, Yun Buyao, and Lu Xiao filmed, âThere Will Be An Angel Who Loves You on My Behalfâ!â
âItâs already broadcasted?â Jian Ai was slightly shocked. She initially thought that they would broadcast this drama during the winter break, but she didnât expect it to be broadcasted when she left.
At this moment, Qinghuan took off her down jacket and rushed up to hug Jian Aiâs neck from behind. She said unhappily, âYouâre amazing. Itâs fine if she disappeared, but youâre not paying attention to me! Tell me, where did you go?!â
âI went abroad!â Jian Ai quickly begged for mercy. âIâm too busy to care! Tell me more!â
When Qinghuan heard this, she let go of Jian Ai. After sitting down at the side, she shook her hair smugly. âSigh, Iâm already famous. Isnât it annoying?!â
Looking at Qinghuanâs smug expression, Jian Ai couldnât help but roll her eyes. âLook at how smug you are!â
âXiao Ai, sheâs really famous!â Guan Tao quickly said, âYun Buyaoâs drama has a guaranteed rating. With the national male god, Lu Xiao, it became a huge hit once it was broadcasted!â
âNow, Qinghuan is surrounded in school every day. People keep recognizing her when she walks on the street!â
Qinghuan sighed helplessly at the side. âOtherwise, why would I wrap myself up with only my eyes exposed? Fortunately, itâs winter. No matter how tightly I wrap myself up, itâs normal to look like this. If it were summer, I wouldnât have anywhere to hide!â
She was already famous, but Qinghuan felt vexed. She even pretended that she had not received benefits.
Jian Ai couldnât help but look at Qinghuan and say, âWhy? You donât like to be recognized? You donât like to be surrounded?â
âI donât like it,â Qinghuan said bluntly. âAlthough Iâm already mentally prepared, I will be a public figure once the drama gets broadcasted. My private space will be squeezed, but Iâm still not used to it!â
âYou have no choice. As a celebrity, you have to bear this,â Jian Ai said. âYouâve 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.â
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 idolâs flight seat number clearly. It was even more common for them to chase cars and block hotels.
âI know.â Qinghuan pursed her lips helplessly. âI just want to film well. Anything else is fine. I donât care.â
Jian Ai couldnât 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.
âXiao Ai, why did you suddenly go abroad again?â 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 didnât ask.
