Chapter 694: In Beautiful Company
Driving the Panamera, Lin Tian first went to the hotel to pick up Jiang Pan Die.
Jiang Pan Die seemed anxious, wearing a mask early and carrying a red bag while waiting downstairs.
Today, Jiang Pan Die’s outfit was quite casual. A pink long shirt underneath, topped with a white high-collar jacket adorned with a few pink bows, paired with a black beret and canvas shoes.
Adorable and full of energy.
Of course, there’s still that mask on her face; without it, she’d be perfect.
"Get in the car." Lin Tian waved his hand.
Jiang Pan Die didn’t hesitate and got into the back seat, saying to Lin Tian, "Do you have any other masks? Let me see them."
"Why?"
"To change, of course. The one you gave me doesn’t look good."
Lin Tian laughed, "You’re so good-looking originally, always attracting attention. Do you still need to turn heads when we’re going out to have fun?"
"You don’t understand. Do you know why I became a celebrity? Money is one thing, but mostly, it’s because many people like me. That feeling is really great. Would you be willing to live a life unnoticed? I certainly wouldn’t. Even when going out to have fun, I want to be the most dazzling," Jiang Pan Die said proudly, feeling her goal was admirable.
"Then if you take off the mask, you’ll definitely be the most dazzling." Lin Tian laughed.
"Hey, you know I can’t do that. Hurry up, take them out and let me choose, or else you won’t be able to handle the consequences." She finished with a proud little gesture, shaking her pink fist in mock threat.
"What? Are you planning to seduce me? Don’t worry, I assure you I’ll cooperate. Do you want me to take off my pants first, or my shirt? Or should I help you undress first?" Lin Tian joked.
"Hey! Can you be serious? You sound like a rogue." Jiang Pan Die said, gritting her teeth in annoyance. Being teased but unable to retaliate was too frustrating.
Lin Tian chuckled again, then took all the masks out from his pocket.
Teasing a big celebrity was pretty fun, but doing it too much would definitely be asking for trouble.
"Hmph!"
Jiang Pan Die made a small ’hmph’ sound, then took the masks with satisfaction.
There were only three masks in total, which seemed a bit few, but she didn’t complain. Instead, she carefully picked through them, trying each one several times. Then she’d pat Lin Tian on the shoulder and ask, "What do you think of this face?"
Lin Tian casually replied without looking, "Looks good."
"No sincerity!" Jiang Pan Die complained, and continued fiddling with them herself.
At this point, Lin Tian had already driven to Zhou Mi’s apartment building.
From a distance, Lin Tian saw Zhou Mi waiting at the entrance.
Today, Zhou Mi looked different from usual. The red contact lenses were gone, and so was the usual outfit of leather pants and studded boots.
Instead, she wore light makeup, her long hair cascading over her shoulders. Her face had subtle eyebrows drawn, with pink lipstick on her cherry-like lips. Her style had changed significantly, opting for a light white sweatshirt and black stockings.
At the sight, Lin Tian’s eyes lit up.
Although Zhou Mi was always good-looking, she was stylishly handsome. Now, her beauty was of a completely different kind.
If she usually dressed like this, she’d have countless admirers. How could it be like before, where no one dared to pursue her?
Zhou Mi saw Lin Tian long ago and opened the passenger door, smiling sweetly, "What? Stunned?"
Lin Tian swallowed hard, "This change is so big! I almost didn’t recognize you."
"I dress like this at home. Why? Don’t I look good?" Zhou Mi asked with a smile.
"No, no! You look great!" Lin Tian nodded like a fool, just agreeing eagerly.
"Hehehe..." Zhou Mi laughed, feeling satisfied with Lin Tian’s expression now. How about that? Isn’t this girl beautiful?
"By the way, what’s the surprise you mentioned?" Zhou Mi asked.
She had imagined a thousand possibilities before, but couldn’t figure it out. After all, this guy had an official girlfriend, so he couldn’t possibly blatantly give her something ambiguous, right?
"It’s behind you. The surprise is right behind you," Lin Tian said with a smile.
Zhou Mi turned around and was startled to see a woman sitting in the back.
"Hello." Jiang Pan Die greeted with a smile. Due to the mask, Zhou Mi didn’t recognize her.
Composing herself, Zhou Mi offered a dry smile, "Hello..."
Then, she quickly turned back, asking quietly, "Who... is this person?"
"Can’t you tell by her voice?" Lin Tian asked with a smile.
Zhou Mi shook her head; she hadn’t listened carefully earlier.
"Then take another look," Lin Tian said with a smile.
Zhou Mi turned around again, just as Jiang Pan Die was taking off her mask. This scene startled Zhou Mi again, but she quickly squealed, "You... you’re... Jiang Pan Die!"
Jiang Pan Die smiled and nodded, "Yes, I plan to hang out tonight. But I get recognized too easily, so I wore one of Lin Tian’s masks."
Zhou Mi was still a bit taken aback, her mouth agape.
"Can you sit in the back and help me pick which mask suits me?" Jiang Pan Die asked with a gentle smile.
Lin Tian watched this scene from the rearview mirror, subtly smirking. This guy could be so gentle with others, so why was she so easily riled up with him?
"May I?" Zhou Mi asked quietly.
"Of course you can."
With the confirmation, Zhou Mi moved to the back seat with a sense of excitement, not even glancing at Lin Tian, leaving behind only her lingering fragrance.
Zhou Mi sat down beside Jiang Pan Die, clearly a bit nervous.
But Jiang Pan Die, having faced many fans like this, seemed quite experienced, maintaining a smile and gracefully discussing with Zhou Mi which mask was suitable.
Once women have a common topic, they soon become familiar with each other. The sense of unfamiliarity was gradually disappearing.
"Where are we going to play?" Lin Tian asked.
"Let’s go to a bar; I haven’t been in a while," Jiang Pan Die suggested. As for Zhou Mi, she had no objections, as she loved lively places.
Lin Tian drove the car towards the bar street in Houhai.
It wasn’t far before Lin Tian noticed a car following them.
This was definitely someone following them from Zhou Mi’s place, but the person’s tracking skills were poor and soon exposed themselves.
Lin Tian didn’t think that such a clumsy guy could be someone sent by his nemesis. But it’s always best to shake off this kind of pest.
"Hold on tight," Lin Tian said, turning his head slightly to the two women in the back before pressing the gas pedal to accelerate.
Although this Porsche wasn’t quite as good as his own Porsche, with his driving skills, it was more than enough to leave the car behind.
Lin Tian’s driving skills were no joke; with a few turns, the car behind was already far behind in the dust.
Zhou Tang looked at the disappearing silhouette of Lin Tian’s Porsche, slamming the steering wheel heavily, then dialed a phone number...
