Rebirth: Once Again With You

Chapter 394 Spying On Chen Ruolan (1)



It took Li Caiyi a few seconds to dig into her memory and find that intern face from Tianyue entertainment. A moment later, she gasped in surprise and awe.

"Wait, seriously? That man? You guys are still keeping in touch?!"

p Chen Ruolan pressed her warm cheek with both of her hands. "He is very knowledgeable about movies and other stuff, so we clicked well. Before we knew it, we texted each other all night. Then it gradually turned into a phone call, and recently we even did video call."

"Whoa. That's so amazing, Lan Lan!" Zhou Ya exclaimed excitedly. Her eyes beamed.

"I know, right? He is very patient with me and even gives me guidance on what path I should take if I want to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. Not only is he smart, but he is also good with words. Even a stupid person like me can easily understand!"

"He must be very patient and smart if he can get through to you." Feng Nian chided sarcastically from the side, but the happy Chen Ruolan didn't sense it and grinned even wider.

"I know, right?! He is such a perfect man for me. At first, I didn't think he was that handsome, but he is pretty cute when he smiles. Love is not only about appearance, so it doesn't matter."

Li Caiyi didn't expect Chen Ruolan, and that intern would hit it up so well. He appeared to be a good man, so although Li Caiyi was a bit sceptical about this, she wished for Chen Ruolan's happiness.

This was her first time seeing Chen Ruolan glow so much when talking about anything other than movies. It seemed she really liked him very much.

"You know what? I think Fu Hang likes me too. Or at least he is interested in me. He asked me to meet up during my summer break last night."

Zhou Ya squealed at the news, Li Caiyi gasped, while Feng Nian frowned.

"Wait a minute. Why is that guy getting all chummy with you so fast? Are you sure he isn't planning something weird?"

"Nian Nian, your distrust towards humanity is commendable, but Fu Hang is a good man. I can vouch for it!" Chen Ruolan puffed up her chest proudly.

"That doesn't reassure me at all. You were easily fooled by Li Chunhua before. What makes you think you suddenly become an expert in analyzing someone's character?"

Chen Ruolan pouted. "Do you have to put it like that? Caiyi was there when Fu Hand and I first met. She can be my witness. Caiyi, you also think Fu Hang is a good guy, right?!"

The dagger suddenly pointed at her, and Li Caiyi was at a loss for words. Especially when Feng Nian's sharp stare felt like it could pierce her skull.

"I don't know Fu Hang as well as Ruolan, but he does seem to be a proper and kind man. Nian, don't worry too much." Li Caiyi answered awkwardly.

Feng Nian scoffed when Chen Ruolan smiled smugly at her. "Do as you like. I'm not preventing you from meeting him or anything. Just be careful. There are a lot of bad guys targeting young girls like us. Never let your guard down."

"Nian Nian, you watched too many crime movies."

"I don't want to hear that from a movie-freak like you, out of all people. It's somewhat humiliating." Feng Nian grumbled.

"So when are you going to meet up?" Zhou Ya eagerly asked. Among them, she seemed to be the only one other than Chen Ruolan who was very enthusiastic about this.

"Hmm, tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?!!"

The three of them reacted, in the same way, this time. All could only stare at Chen Ruolan's blissful and dreamy expression with their mouth hanging open.

***

And that was how it became like this.

Li Caiyi tugged on Feng Nian's sleeve, who was currently bending forward in front of her.

She peeked from behind the pillar, trying to sneakily peek at Chen Ruolan's figure from a distance. With that gardener hat and dark sunglasses, Feng Nian looked like a suspicious person.

"Nian, are you sure we have to do this?" Li Caiyi had a hesitant and helpless look on her face.

How could she not? They were clearly spying on someone in the middle of the day. Passerby cast a weird look on them, and some even pointed at them while whispering something.

Feng Nian looked back and lowered her sunglasses slightly. "Caiyi, you know Lan Lan is very gullible. We can't let this Fu Hang deceive her."

"But we don't have to do it like this. We are unnecessarily standing out weirdly now."

"Lan Lan will notice us if I don't have this disguise. Speaking of which, why don't you wear any?"

Li Caiyi massaged her forehead. "In crowded restaurants like this, it would be more natural if we act as customers and sit at the table near theirs, rather than sneakily watching them from outside."

Feng Nian made a disappointed pout. She looked dissatisfied. Li Caiyi suspected that her friend secretly enjoyed this kind of stuff.

"But that Fu Hang guy met you before, right? What if he recognizes you?"

'Okay, she actually made a good point there.'

Li Caiyi thought about it for a bit before an idea struck her. She tugged her hairband and combed her hair with her fingers. Then she took off her glasses as well.

In a matter of seconds, it was almost like she turned into someone else Feng Nian knew.

"What do you think? I think he won't recognize me if I enter with this appearance."

"Huh? Oh! Sorry I spaced out. I knew you were twins, but I was amazed by how similar you guys are." Feng Nian said without being able to avert her eyes from Li Caiyi's face. "I thought you were Li Chunhua for a second."

Li Caiyi chuckled at her honest comment. "Precisely why I have to tie my hair and use glasses. If I don't, people won't be able to differentiate us."

"Wait, that's a non-prescription glasses?"

"Yes. My eyes are still quite healthy, so I actually don't need to wear them every time. I wear this so people can tell both of us apart."

Feng Nian was silent for a moment. "You even go so far… Do you not like it when people mistake you for your sister?"

Li Caiyi pressed her bangs as she replied, "Rather than dislike, it was more like I was uncomfortable. Xiaohua was a very bright person. Meanwhile, I was dull and gloomy. Without my glasses, I feel like everyone who stares at me has expectations of me. That I would be as charming and interesting as my sister."

Li Caiyi smiled faintly. "But I'm not Xiaohua, and I would never be the same as her no matter how hard I try. So I would rather crush that expectation by making myself different."

Feng Nian stared at her without saying anything, making Li Caiyi feel awkward. "Sorry, I was talking too much, didn't I?"

"No, it's not that. Caiyi, I never knew you were actually having that kind of thought all this time. But believe me, although you probably aren't shining brightly like your sister, that doesn't mean you don't have your own light. You are amazing, and I'm sure many people would agree with me."

After saying it aloud, Feng Nian grinned and clasped Li Caiyi's wrist.

"You look great now. It's a shame Zhou Ya isn't here to see it. Now, shall we enter?"
