Chapter 426: Late
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Everyone thought that Tan Si would arrive soon, so they gathered in groups of twos and threes to talk. As parents, they had many common topics to talk about. The children gathered together to play with toys.
Gao Tian and the others thought that Zou Bai would not join them, but they did not expect him to initiate the conversation. He spoke logically about parenting knowledge.
Seeing that he was so friendly, the others could not continue to be afraid. After a while, they became familiar with each other.
Sophie kept praising Jiang An, her eyes filled with love.
Meng Nuan also liked Jiang An. She felt that her acting skills were especially good and that she would definitely win an award in the future.
In addition, if she wanted to return to the entertainment industry, she had to restore contact with the people in the industry. Jiang An was a very good starting point.
Everyone was happily mixing around for an hour, but the audience in the live-stream could not wait any longer. They kept questioning the production team.
[It’s almost noon. Why isn’t Tan Si here yet?]
[The morning rush hour is already over.]
[Is she trying to make a dramatic entrance as the final one?]
[It’s not like she’s going to walk the red carpet. What sort of dramatic entrance is this?]
[Is she coming or not?]
The director also wanted to know if Tan Si was coming or not. He had gotten someone to call her several times, but she did not answer. When she contacted her manager, he did not know where she had gone.
He really wanted to ignore her and proceed to the next segment, but there were so many people watching in the live-stream. He definitely could not do that.
Just as the director was feeling anxious, Tan Si finally entered. She ran over with the child in her arms.
However, looking at her exquisite makeup and motionless hair, it was really unbelievable that she was in a hurry to rush over.
“I’m really sorry. There was a traffic jam on the way here. It wasn’t easy for me to run over.” Tan Si bowed to everyone.
Of course, this was a lie. It was already too late when she left the house.
Tan Si hired a professional makeup team to put on makeup for her. She wanted to suppress everyone for her first appearance, so she spent a lot of time on this.
However, she did not take the fact that she was late to the show to heart. After all, she was the most talked about female celebrity on Weibo. Being able to appear on this variety show was giving the director face already, so it was only right for her to be the last to appear.
When the car set off, she was not in a hurry. It was only because Wang Li could not stand it anymore and urged the driver to hurry up that they did not arrive any later.
However, Tan Si also knew that she could not go in just like that. When the car stopped at the door, she carried Tan Nian and said, “Mom, don’t spout nonsense after you enter.”
With that, she walked in in her high heels and pretended to breathe unsteadily.
No one took her lateness to heart, but bowing and apologizing was a little too much.
Meng Nuan quickly went to help her up and said, “We haven’t been here for long. Hurry up and sit down to rest.”
Gao Tian and the others went to pick up the luggage in Wang Li’s hand. She had brought in several suitcases and bags. She was so tired that her face was covered in sweat.
After she sat down, she immediately looked at Jiang An and waited for her to greet her. In her opinion, she was the one who raised Jiang An. She had to know how to be grateful.
Jiang An had no intention of paying attention to her. After all, she had not been treated as a daughter in the Tan family for so many years. She had even been pushed out to get married in place of Tan Si. What she had to repay had already been long repaid.
[Jiang An, what kind of attitude is this? Why don’t you even acknowledge your adoptive mother?]
[That’s right. After all, the other party raised her.]
[She’s the eldest daughter of the Jiang family now. Why would she still like her original adoptive mother?]
[Shut up. I hope you have an adoptive mother who will send you out to marry someone for your sibling.]
[After being raised for so many years, it’s only right for her to get married on behalf of her sister.]
[Bullsh*t. It’s not like Jiang An begged them to adopt her. Even if she grew up in an orphanage, it would still be better than growing up in the Tan family.]
[To be able to do such a thing, it means that she has never treated Jiang An as her daughter.]
Seeing that the live-stream was getting noisy, the assistant quickly asked the director, “Do you want to ban a few accounts that keep saying these things?”
“No need,” the director said. “As long as they don’t start fighting, they can say anything. That way, the viewership of the show can go up.”
Seeing that Jiang An had no intention of coming over, Wang Li was so angry that she wanted to stand up and rush over. However, before she could do anything, she met Zou Bai’s gaze.
She was instantly frightened. His gaze indicated that he was about to kill her in the next second.
Wang Li could tell that the other party had killed before. He was like a wolf she had seen in the countryside when she was young. Their gaze was the same..
