“Yes, the milk tea fell to the ground and spilled. That person quickly apologized and said that she would queue up to buy it again for me. She told me to wait at the door for a while.”
Lan Xin recalled the details at that time. “That person was quite meticulous. She only took a look at the label and went to queue. When she got it back, it was the same as the one I bought. I left without saying anything.”
“I wanted to tell you yesterday, but when Boss came later, I forgot about this. Do you think there’s a problem with this person?” Lan Xin frowned and asked.
“Ran Ran, why don’t we go to the milk tea shop and get the surveillance cameras?” Lan Xin immediately suggested.
“Wait. Finish filming for today first. We’ll go together later,” Bai Ran said.
“Stop acting like sisters in front of me. It’s about to start!” Sun Mei said impatiently when she saw that her provocation had failed.
“Then, Ah Xin, go up first! Relax!” Bai Ran instructed.
The filming was intense. This was the first time Bai Ran went to the stage as an audience.
On the stage, as the protagonist, the makeup artist had modified the makeup she had arranged for Bai Ran according to Lan Xin’s characteristics, completely exuding Lan Xin’s beauty.
Bai Ran sighed in her heart. Lan Xin really should not have been buried. After professional training, she could have completely become the one holding the fort.
“Cut! Filming is over!”
With the director’s announcement, everyone’s expression relaxed.
Lan Xin hurried down the stage and shouted, “Ran Ran, let’s go now! I want to see what’s going on!”
“There’s no need to be in such a hurry!” Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Bai Ran was already pulled out of the door by Lan Xin.
The two of them walked to the milk tea shop downstairs.
“I’m sorry, Miss. The surveillance cameras in this restaurant are private. I can’t let anyone see them casually.” After the two of them explained their intentions, the waiter rejected them expressionlessly.
“But look, she had an allergic reaction! If you don’t let us see the surveillance cameras, we’ll naturally think that your milk tea added something dirty. Be careful, I’ll complain to the consumer association and the Food Safety Department! Even if they don’t care, two groups of people will be enough to check on you!” Lan Xin was a little unhappy and had already begun to threaten them.
“I’ll ask the store manager.” The waiter straightened his expression and turned around. “Please wait a moment.”
Soon, the waiter returned and led them to the surveillance cameras.
The scene cut to yesterday afternoon. Lan Xin stared at the screen intently and suddenly pointed at a person on it and shouted, “It’s this person!”
What appeared on the screen was a person who had wrapped herself very tightly. She was wearing a hat and a mask, and her back was facing the camera. Her face could not be seen at all.
The waiter prepared the milk tea and placed it on the table. Just as he was about to seal the cup, she said something to the waiter, who then turned around. At this moment, her hand waved imperceptibly above the milk tea and then retracted back into her pocket.
“I remember now. That day, this lady said that half-sugar was not sweet enough and wanted to add some more sugar. So I turned around to look for sugar powder!” The waiter had an incredulous look on his face. He did not expect that such a small action would involve drugging.
“It’s all your fault! How could you throw the bubble tea that was not sealed there?!” Lan Xin shouted.
“I didn’t know either. It has only been a short while, but someone actually did these petty things! I’m really sorry, Miss,” the waiter apologized with his head lowered.
“Alright, don’t blame the waiter. We still have to see who this person is and what her goal is,” Bai Ran said as she stared at the screen again.
This figure, this back… Why did it feel more and more familiar the more she looked at it…
Did she come back personally?
Moreover, she was the only one who knew that she was allergic to walnuts… Perhaps this also explained why the weight was so light.
However, why was she treating her like this? Was it because she did not agree to send someone to look for her last time? Was that why she wanted to ruin her advertisement shoot? And since she came back personally, why didn’t she look for her?
