Chapter 400: The Women's Meeting Was Like a Fan Meeting
She pouted slightly, feeling a bit aggrieved, and muttered in a low voice, "He is quite good in other aspects, but... it's just that he's too..."
She knew what her daughter wanted to say and interrupted directly, "Oh, my silly girl! Since when is being a playboy a flaw!"
"You are just too idealistic! By the time you finish struggling with this, the chance will have long passed, and you won't even get a taste of anything!"
Having said that, Liu Xiaoli ignored her daughter's little mood, picked up her phone with great interest, and started searching for "Nourishing Medicinal Diet Recipes" and "100 Dishes to Capture a Man's Stomach."
She muttered to herself, "Stewed soft-shelled turtle soup? Or maybe chicken soup with ganoderma? Oh, this Ten-Complete Tonic Soup looks good too..."
Watching her mother's posture, as if she couldn't wait to pack her up and send her to Jiang Jing immediately, Liu Yifei couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Anyone who didn't know better would think she was the one dating Jiang Jing...
Inside Shanshui Manor.
After receiving a call from Jiang Jing, Li Xue immediately told the other women the news.
"What? Mimi, Leng Ba, Nazha, and Yaya are coming?" Xinxin was so excited she almost jumped up. "Oh my god! Am I dreaming? Can I ask them for autographs? Can we take photos together?"
Su Xiaoxiao was also full of excitement: "I love Leng Ba so much! Her portrayal of Feng Jiu was just too cute!"
But after the excitement came a feeling of nervousness.
"Oh, I'm so nervous!" Xinxin hugged a pillow and whispered to Zhou Wenying beside her, "I'm about to meet my idols, Leng Ba and Nazha! Will they be even more beautiful in person?"
Zhou Wenying was also a bit excited and nodded: "And Tong Liya, she has such a refined temperament! Yang Mi's aura is also very strong. Will we look very plain in comparison?"
Li Xue was relatively composed, but her fingers holding the teacup tightened unconsciously.
After all, they were facing several hot female stars from the entertainment industry, and the invisible pressure brought by that kind of fame was real.
At this moment, Li Ruonan, dressed in a sharp, energetic outfit, walked in. Seeing the women looking somewhat uneasy, she couldn't help but laugh and clapped her hands: "Hey, hey, hey, sisters, why are you all acting like you're facing a formidable enemy?"
She walked to the center of the living room, put her hands on her hips, and teased: "What's there to be nervous about? Why are you so nervous? Don't forget, we are all sisters in the same trench now! We're on the same team!"
She winked, lowered her voice, and added with a mischievous smile: "Who knows, tonight, we might all be heading to the battlefield together! It's hard to say who will perform better then!"
"Thinking about it like that, don't you feel like we're all the same? There's no distinction between high and low status, right?"
These slightly suggestive words instantly dispelled much of the heavy atmosphere.
The women were stunned at first, but then they couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle, and the nervous expressions on their faces eased significantly.
"Ruonan! Can you watch what you say!" Li Xue said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Zhou Wenying was relatively calm and smiled: "Actually, Ruonan is right. Since we are all family, it's better to just relax."
"Although they are stars, they should be very easygoing in private."
Qin Shuang also nodded slightly: "Indeed."
Xinxin also adjusted from her initial fan mentality and began to excitedly look forward to seeing her idols in a moment, as well as the wonderful scenario of possibly living under the same roof in the future.
"I wonder what Leng Ba likes to eat? I recently learned a few new desserts..." Xinxin had already started planning how to entertain them.
The plane arrived at the destination very quickly.
Jiang Jing brought the fully disguised female stars to the entrance of the manor.
Li Xue and the other women, having received the news long ago, were already waiting expectantly in front of the main house.
Seeing they had reached the entrance of the house, Jiang Jing smiled and said, "We're home, you all can take off your gear."
The women gave Jiang Jing a charming roll of their eyes, took off their masks and other coverings, and adjusted their clothes.
They followed Jiang Jing out of the car.
When they saw Jiang Jing leading these four big stars, each with a different style but equally breathtakingly beautiful, they couldn't help but freeze for a moment.
In all fairness, Li Xue and the others were one in a hundred in terms of appearance, and they would be eye-catching beauties anywhere.
But at this moment, facing these four big stars, they still clearly felt a slight gap.
This gap didn't completely stem from their facial features, but rather more from a kind of aura.
It was something very hard to describe, but it could be felt.
The women were mostly college students, streamers, or office workers, so it was inevitable that they would feel a sense of unease as ordinary people facing stars.
Jiang Jing found it funny to see his women looking a bit dazed and even a little timid.
He cleared his throat and deliberately put on a straight face: "Hey, hey, beautiful ladies, are you lined up to welcome my triumphant return, or are you all collectively staring blankly here?"
The women were brought back to their senses by his words, and embarrassed blushes appeared on their faces.
Li Xue said somewhat bashfully, "Welcome back! We were just stunned by Sister Mi and the others' aura, and couldn't react for a second."
Yang Mi saw through the subtle emotions in Li Xue and the others' hearts at a glance.
She immediately raised a very approachable smile, stepped forward quickly, affectionately took Li Xue's hand, and said in a slightly chiding tone:
"Oh my, what are you saying, Sister Xue'er! What aura or whatever, that's all just put on for the camera for others to see."
"When we close the doors, we are all sisters, so don't bother with those superficial things!"
Leng Ba immediately followed up. She was naturally sweet-looking, and as she laughed, she showed no airs at all: "Yeah, yeah, Sister Mi is right!"
"We have to maintain our image outside, it's so tiring. Back home, we just want to be comfortable. Sisters, please don't treat us like outsiders."
Nazha and Tong Liya also nodded repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, seeing how beautiful you all are, we are the ones who are nervous!"
Tong Liya smiled gently: "Please take care of us in the future, sisters."
Li Xue and the others were smart girls, so naturally they could hear that Yang Mi and the others were deliberately lowering their status to comfort them.
They were afraid that this first meeting would cause them pressure or give a bad impression.
This thoughtfulness and kindness caused the small sense of awkwardness in their hearts to dissipate by more than half instantly.
The atmosphere immediately livened up. Especially Xinxin and Zhou Wenying, the two little star-chasing experts, who were so excited to see their living idols that their little faces turned red.
"Sister Mi, I love the characters you play so much!" Xinxin plucked up the courage to run in front of Yang Mi, her eyes sparkling.
"Sister Leng Ba, can... can you give me an autograph? Oh no, can I have a hug?" Zhou Wenying also edged close to Leng Ba, looking expectant.
"Sister Nazha, you are so beautiful! Can we take a photo together?"
"Sister Ya, your ancient costume look is absolutely stunning!"
Suddenly, the scene became exceptionally lively.
The big stars were also extremely cooperative, smiling as they hugged and took photos with them, answering their various curious little questions.
It was truly a scene of a small fan meetup; laughter filled the manor entrance, and the subtle barrier from just a moment ago vanished completely amidst the laughter.
