Chapter 552
Ji Yi forgot to go to the bathroom before she left the house, so the first thing she did when she arrived at the beauty salon was use the restroom.
Ji Yi truly never imagined that she would bump into *her* in the restroom.
She walked over to the restroom door and raised her hand. Just as she was about to push the door open, someone on the other side pulled it open. Ji Yi was caught off guard by the sight of Qian Ge’s carefully done make up.
The past few days, news of their incident got out to the whole world.
Now, to unexpectedly meet like this, not only was Ji Yi stunned, but Qian Ge also felt a little startled.
Ji Yi was the first to snap back to her senses.
Things were fine when she didn’t see Qian Ge, but as soon as Ji Yi saw her, the fire in her heart ignited.
She knew full well that Qian Ge wanted to see her embarrassed more than anyone, so she tried her best to push down the thought of wanting to shred Qian Ge into a million pieces. Ji Yi pretended she didn’t exist and brushed right past her into the restroom.
After entering a cubicle, she locked the cubicle door from the inside then waited for a while. Ji Yi heard the crisp sound of Qian Ge’s high heels gradually disappearing.
After using the toilet, Ji Yi continued to sit there for a while before she got up and flushed. Then she emerged from the cubicle.
As she came out, Ji Yi headed straight for the sink and turned on the tap. With some soap in her hands, she aimed for the water and was about to wash her hands when she saw Qian Ge through the mirror. She was standing at the exit with a slender women’s menthol cigarette between her fingers.
When Ji Yi saw her, she could sense the bewitching smoke coming from Qian Ge’s lips. She glanced into the mirror. When their eyes met for just two seconds, the smoke Qian Ge exhaled covered both their gazes.
Ji Yi pretended Qian Ge didn’t exist just like she did when she entered the restroom and blankly lowered her eyes. After carefully washing her hands, she reached for a tissue and dried her hands. Then she turned around and leisurely walked out of the restroom.
Ji Yi turned right and was just about to walk over to the front desk of the beauty salon. Standing next to her, Qian Ge spoke with an elegant voice, “Do you have nothing to say to me?”
Of course, Ji Yi knew what Qian Ge secretly meant with those words. She was waiting for Ji Yi to blame her for plagiarizing her performance and call her a little thief! She’s probably betting on me saying that!
That way, Qian Ge could just record me and post it up on Weibo. I’m already in dangerous territory, so this would only push me over the edge!
Ji Yi pretended as though she hadn’t heard anything, so her feet didn’t hesitate or stop walking at all.
“You may have nothing to say, but I have something to say to you today.” Ji Yi heard Qian Ge’s unhurried voice from behind her.
Ji Yi continued walking straight ahead.
The distance between them grew.
Yet, Qian Ge wasn’t in a hurry in the least. She continued to sluggishly lean against the wall and smoke her cigarette. “Ji Yi, did you know? He Jichen knew years ago that your character in ‘The Tempestuous Grand Tang’ would clash with my character in ‘The Legend of Qingcheng’.”
Ji Yi’s calm steps suddenly came to a stop at the sound of those words “He Jichen.”
She didn’t turn back.
Qian Ge didn’t hope for Ji Yi to turn around, but she put out her finished cigarette on the ashtray by the bin. She pushed herself up then strolled over to Ji Yi’s side.
