Chapter 28

In fact, Jiang Ran is not fat at all, and is even a little thin. However, as a female star, she will look fat after appearing on camera, so she has to avoid certain foods as much as possible.

"Oh, it's so hard to be a female star." Luo Qingli sighed.

Jiang Ran shook her head. "Although I have to control my eating habits, I like this job. For the career I love, I can do anything!"

This is why Luo Qingli likes Jiang Ran. She has always been hopeful and has always worked hard for her goals, just like a passionate sunflower.

After Luo Qingli washed up and changed his clothes, he saw Jiang Ran was fully armed.

She was wearing a gray long-sleeved T-shirt and black trousers, with a large mask on her face, a black baseball cap on her head, and a pair of sunglasses in her hand.

"You look like you're going to rob a bank." Luo Qingli joked.

"You don't want a bunch of people to gather around us while we're having fun, do you?" Jiang Ran sighed exaggeratedly and said, "I'll have to bear with you, a beautiful lady."

It was still early, so Jiang Ran took Luo Qingli to the breakfast shop downstairs for a meal.

The owner of the breakfast shop seemed to know Jiang Ran. She smiled at him and said, "Is it still the same as before?"

Because it was the weekend, not many people needed to go to work, so there were only a few people sitting sparsely in the breakfast shop. Jiang Ran took off his sunglasses, nodded to the boss lady and said, "Yes, give me two servings."

Jiang Ran sat down in the corner of the shop with ease and got tableware for Luo Qingli.

"Do you eat here often?" Luo Qingli asked curiously.

Jiang Ran nodded. "This restaurant is cheap and delicious. Since I moved here, I've been coming here often. The boss lady already knows me."

When breakfast came, it was just ordinary buns, fried dough sticks and soy milk.

"Try it. Although it looks simple, it's made by the boss lady by hand. It tastes very good."

Luo Qingli picked up a bun and took a bite. The bun skin was soft and glutinous, and the filling was salty and fresh. It was indeed very good.

She has lived in Melbourne for so long, and there are many other delicious foods in Melbourne, but the buns and other pastries are not as good.

Luo Qingli ate three buns in one breath and finally burped.

Jiang Ran laughed at her, "Don't eat so much, save some space, we still have delicious food to eat at noon!"

After breakfast, Jiang Ran got in the car and took Luo Qingli to the destination.

This attraction is a park with a long history. It is shaded by trees and colorful flowers. Sitting by the lake and feeling the breeze gently blowing, it seems as if all your worries can be forgotten with the breeze.

Luo Qingli and Jiang Ran walked around casually first, then found a secluded place to sit down, enjoy the breeze and chat, and time passed quickly.

Jiang Ran glanced at his phone and said, "Let's go, the appointment time is almost up."

The two walked slowly to the restaurant located in the park.

This restaurant is integrated with the park and is filled with green plants and flowers. If you don’t look closely, you can’t tell that there is a restaurant here.

The two entered through a hanging flower gate surrounded by flowers and trees. The courtyard inside had rockery and flowing water, and the environment was very elegant.

An ancient building hidden among flowers and trees came into view. The two entered through the open wooden door and found waiters in traditional costumes waiting for them.

Jiang Ran gave the name of the person making the reservation, and the waiter took them to a seat near the floor-to-ceiling window in the restaurant.

The interior of the entire restaurant is also decorated in traditional architectural style, with an antique flavor. There are several tables in the lobby, and each table is far apart to ensure a certain degree of privacy. Each table can see the scenery outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Jiang Ran sat down and said, "My reservation was not early enough. All the rooms in the private room are sold out. There are only seats in the hall."

"It's okay. You can see beautiful scenery here as well. As long as you don't mind."

Jiang Ran raised the corner of his lips and said, "This restaurant is by reservation only, so there won't be many people coming. You don't have to worry about being watched here."

As he said that, Jiang Ran took off his mask and hat with confidence.

You cannot order dishes in this restaurant. The chef will decide the menu based on the ingredients of the day. Therefore, you don’t know what you will eat every time you come. It is like a blind box of food.

"Ranran, I'm going to the bathroom." Luo Qingli got up and went to the bathroom.

Jiang Ran nodded and took out her cell phone to reply to the message sent by Brother Yang.

Suddenly, she felt someone sitting on the chair in front of her. Jiang Ran subconsciously looked up and found that the person sitting in front of her was Ye Wanrou!

"Jiang Ran, you still have the mind to sit here and eat? The movie you got with great difficulty is going to fail?" Ye Wanrou had on delicate makeup, but her face was full of gloating.

"What does this have to do with you? Someone who is not even qualified to compete with me actually comes to talk to me like this?" Jiang Ran hit back neatly.

She just didn't understand. She just accidentally offended Ye Wanrou when she was still unknown, and Ye Wanrou has been pestering her until now. Not only did she trip her up openly and secretly, but she also tried every means to pull her down.

But is Jiang Ran someone who would compromise?

Ye Wanrou didn't get angry like usual this time. Instead, she smiled smugly and said, "I'm not qualified? You know who invested in this movie, right? It's Jiang Yao from the Jiang Group! If Young Master Jiang says anything, you won't be able to survive in this industry."

Jiang Ran raised her eyebrows. It turned out that the person behind Ye Wanrou was Jiang Yao, her dear half-brother.

She had been wondering before. Although the Ye family was rich and powerful, it was impossible for them to have such great energy to provide resources to Ye Wanrou. It turned out that she had hooked up with Jiang Yao.

Her brother has looked down on her since childhood, and it is very likely that he will team up with Ye Wanrou to deal with her.

"I originally thought Jiang Yao was a smart guy, but I didn't expect him to be so stupid. Investing in you is obviously a losing business, yet he can still do it."

Jiang Ran's words hit the nail on the head.

Although Ye Wanrou has the capital to support her, she has no other skills except her appearance. She can only stare with a blank expression when acting, and has been criticized countless times for her lack of acting skills.

If it weren't for the capital behind her, she would have no way of surviving in the entertainment industry. Even if she had the capital, she would just be a vase.

However, Ye Wanrou herself was open-minded and actually started using the gimmick of "the capitalist's princess" to market herself. The effect was quite good and attracted many fans.

Having been poked in the sore spot, Ye Wanrou's expression finally changed. She glared at Jiang Ran and said, "So what? If you don't find a sponsor quickly, you'll be defeated by me sooner or later!"

Jiang Ran raised her eyebrows. Didn’t Jiang Yao tell Ye Wanrou about his relationship with her?

It seems that in Jiang Yao's eyes, Ye Wanrou is just a tool to attack him.

Jiang Ran smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. Just focus on Jiang Yao. As far as I know, Jiang Yao often changes his female companions. As for Director Lin's movie, forget it. If I can't shoot it, you can't shoot it either."

Ye Wanrou snorted coldly, looked at Jiang Ran with resentment and said, "Jiang Ran, you want to soar to fame with this movie? I tell you, that's impossible. I will ask Master Jiang to stop everyone from investing in this movie. Just wait for the end!"

"Sorry, this movie will definitely go smoothly." Luo Qingli appeared behind Jiang Ran.

Hearing Luo Qingli's voice, Jiang Ran turned around and gave Luo Qingli a sly smile.

"Ye Qingli, why are you here!" Ye Wanrou raised her voice.

Luo Qingli sat next to Jiang Ran, looked at Ye Wanrou coldly and said, "First, my name is Luo Qingli, and second, Jiang Ran is my good friend. Do you have any objection to my appearance here?"

"Okay, you guys actually!"

"I will invest in this movie, so you don't have to worry about it."

"You invest? Ye Qingli, where do you get the capital to invest? Oh, that's right, you're following Ji Jinsi, so you must have money. But even if you have Ji Jinsi now, what's the use? Will Ji Jinsi still marry you as his wife?"

"Ye Wanrou, I thought you would be smarter and more intelligent when you grow up. Unfortunately, you disappoint me." Luo Qingli said calmly.

Luo Qingli's calm tone was a deadly blow to Ye Wanrou. She was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by that? What else do you have besides Ji Jinsi? Have you found another sponsor? Or are you pregnant?"

Ye Wanrou's simple brain was fully revealed in these few sentences. Luo Qingli didn't understand why Zhao Qian, who was a smart person, gave birth to such a stupid person like Ye Wanrou.

Luo Qingli looked at Ye Wanrou with disappointment. "Whatever you think, I just hope you have self-awareness and don't go against Jiang Ran again!"

"You!" Ye Wanrou's face turned red with anger at Luo Qingli's look.

Suddenly, Ye Wanrou seemed to see something and stood up and walked towards Luo Qingli.

"Young Master Jiang, you're finally here. They all bullied me!"

Luo Qingli turned her head and saw Ye Wanrou throwing herself into the arms of a handsome man like a little bird.

The man was tall but not thin, and one could vaguely see the shape of his muscles under his thin clothes.

It's just that his appearance is so outstanding that people subconsciously ignore his figure.

A pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes and a delicate face make Jiang Yao look androgynous, and sometimes even more beautiful than a woman.

Luo Qingli heard Jiang Ran snort beside her. She turned her head and asked Jiang Ran with her eyes, who is this?

"He's my elder brother, Jiang Yao, Ye Wanrou's lover." Jiang Ran whispered in Luo Qingli's ear.

Luo Qingli had heard the name Jiang Yao mentioned by others before.

He is the eldest son of the Jiang family's legitimate wife. It is said that he is very smart and has made great achievements in business. Others speculate that the Jiang family will be inherited by Jiang Yao in the future.

However, Jiang Yao is different from Ji Jinsi. Ji Jinsi has already taken full control of the Ji family through his own abilities, but Jiang Yao still has Master Jiang above him, and he only exists as an heir.

Jiang Yao hugged Ye Wanrou and came in front of the two of them, looking down at Jiang Ran condescendingly, his beautiful peach blossom eyes full of disgust.
