Chapter 46 – “I’m setting you up on a blind date. He’s your stepdad’s friend’s son. He’s a dependable person. Anyways, he’s definitely better than that lousy Meng Yan!” (1)
Since Lin Yiyi had taken the kids here for a special occasion, she had dressed up today too.
The original owner had a lot of clothing. She brought new clothes each season, and they were all famous brands too. Even a simple item like one of her T-shirts was probably an expensive seasonal apparel.
Although she didn’t know the cost of each item, it didn’t prevent her from becoming increasingly aware of how luxurious each of these items were…
For example, when she had been streaming, one of viewers had said her watch was worth tens of thousands. The original owner had already become accustomed to wealth, so this amount of money wasn’t noteworthy to her.
In the original owner’s closet and jewelry box, there were many items more expensive than a Xiaoxiang watch. Amongst these items, there was a jade bracelet that was almost transparent with a vibrant emerald-green color. Lin Yiyi didn’t even dare to touch that bracelet….
If she accidentally dropped the jade bracelet and broke it, her little heart might not be able to bear it!
She specially dressed up today, put on makeup, and went to the hair salon to fix up her hair. She looked a lot more glamorous than her everyday look.
So, it wasn’t surprising that someone would recognize her today!
Actually, it wasn’t only the netizen that had posted the photos on Weibo that recognized her.
After she and the two children entered the tatami room and sat down, the waitress that was waiting to hear this family’s food orders also recognized her.
Sometimes, people would look slightly different on TV versus in real life.
For example, this was how Lin Yiyi had felt when met the original owner’s ex-husband, Meng Yan. Without the camera filters, the makeup worn for the cameras, and the special lighting, this famous actor looked like a normal person.
He was only slightly more handsome than the average person.
When the waitress had first come into the tatami room, she didn’t immediately recognize Lin Yiyi.
However, as she stood there waiting by the table with a slight smile on her face as the family looked through the menu, she secretly looked at her…
As she kept looking at her, she suddenly felt something was off…
OMG, isn’t this Meng Yan’s ex-wife, Lin Yiyi?
Lin Yiyi was a very unpopular person.
She had acted in a few dramas and a few very popular movies too. She should have been able to rise up in popularity because of those movies, but even if all the main actors and supporting actors had gotten popular from those movies, she alone remained unpopular.
She had muddled along in the entertainment circle for a few years without ever becoming popular. Later on, when she finally appeared in the hot searches and was remembered by everyone, it was only because of her relationship with Meng Yan!
Back when Lin Yiyi had gotten together with Meng Yan, this waitress had been young child, but she knew that Lin Yiyi was the target of verbal abuse. Everyone felt that she wasn’t worthy of the film emperor. Even now, when people mentioned Meng Yan’s ex-wife, they would only have bad things to say about her. But, it wasn’t only because of her connection to Meng Yan anymore…
It was because people disliked how she would flaunt her wealth.
When she thought about it carefully, she had blindly followed the crowd and cursed at her too in the past.
The waitress suddenly a bit guilty
But…
In person, Lin Yiyi didn’t seem bad. She seemed gentle and spoke softly with her children. She seemed as if she was totally different from the person that used to flaunt her wealth.
While she was in the middle of looking at Lin Yiyi, she suddenly noticed a cold gaze directed at her…
The teenager, who was sitting across from Lin Yiyi, had turned his face and was expressionlessly staring at her with his exquisite face.
“Ah… Umm… Is there anything else that you want to order?” Startled, the waitress stumbled to find the right words to say.
Lin Yiyi, who was still looking through the menu: “…”
She hadn’t even started ordering food!
Once the food was ordered, the young waitress fled from the room as if she had been given an amnesty.
Lin Yiyi was speechless. She silently raised her head and looked at the teenager across the table. He was sitting there properly.
Did that waitress think she was a man-eating tigress?
