Who says real and fake daughters can’t be sisters?

Si Ran made an appointment with Jiang Ya to meet at Mingyuan Private Kitchen. It was Yuanluo who brought her to this place. Although she knew that Yuanluo had a membership card here and could come here at any time, Si Ran seldom came here before.

This time when she met Jiang Ya, she couldn't explain why, she just felt that she needed to be cautious and go to a private place. After thinking about it, Siran could only think of this place. Anyway, Yuanluo had also informed her before, she could come anytime, so Siran simply decided to set the location here.

In fact, Siran was just feeling guilty. It was no secret that she and Jiang Ya knew each other and had worked together before. Even if the paparazzi photographed them meeting, they would only say that they were a good personal friend and no scandal would be spread.

Siran arrived at Mingyuan first, and was led to her own private room by the waiter. The waiter asked her whether she wanted to order now or wait for the guests to arrive.

Siran thought for a moment and said, "I'll order first and ask the kitchen not to make it yet. There may be some changes when the customers arrive. If there are no changes, just serve it as I ordered."

"sure no problem."

Si Ran ordered asparagus in soup, boiled shrimp, and clams in garlic sauce according to her usual taste. Thinking that Jiang Ya was from southern Province and her taste might be spicier, she also ordered crispy duck with sesame seeds and fish head with chopped peppers, plus a dish of baby cabbage in golden soup.

Although the portions of Mingyuan dishes were small, they were enough for two people. Si Ran ordered the dishes and handed the menu back to the waiter. The waiter took the menu and gave it to the kitchen staff. Si Ran sat alone at the table playing with her phone.

The boredom didn't last too long. Not long after the waiter left, another waiter brought Jiang Ya to the box.

Because there were outsiders around, Jiang Ya was still calm. Seeing that Siran had arrived, she greeted him as if she was meeting a friend: "Have you been waiting for a long time? I live a little far from here, I'm really sorry."

As soon as Jiang Ya opened her mouth, Siran also reacted, stood up and greeted her, and said, "I didn't wait long, I just got here a while ago."

Then he said to the waiter, "Show the menu I just ordered to Mr. Jiang to see if there is anything that does not suit your taste so that we can make some changes."

All orders at Mingyuan are placed using a tablet, and all internal employees can view the information on the system. Also because Siran asked them not to make it yet, the initial waiter did not have to go to the kitchen to give instructions.

Jiang Ya took a look at the ordered dishes and found that most of them were light, but there were two specialties from Southern Province. She guessed that Siran should like lighter flavors, so these two dishes were probably ordered specifically for her.

I couldn't help but feel a little warm inside, so I handed the tablet back to the waiter and said, "I like them all, just follow this menu."

"Okay, it will take about half an hour to prepare all these dishes, including the time for plating and serving. Can we serve them in forty minutes?" The waiter saw that the two people seemed to have something to discuss, so he started to communicate about the time for serving the dishes.

Jiang Ya glanced at Si Ran and found that she didn't mean to talk, so she nodded and said, "Okay."

The waiter tactfully withdrew and closed the door for the two of them. Jiang Ya's calm expression suddenly became unsustainable. She looked at Si Ran and said in a cautious and flattering tone: "Thank you for being willing to see me."

After knowing those things, Si Ran no longer had as much dissatisfaction and resentment towards Jiang Ya as before. Putting aside the preconceived dislike and looking at Jiang Ya again, Si Ran found that to some extent, he was actually a bit cruel to her.

She certainly doesn't think that she did nothing wrong and doesn't have to be responsible for what happened in the past. She just thinks that when she was not yet able to take responsibility for herself, she gave birth to herself, who needs to be taken care of by herself, and she has no relatives or friends to help her.

Judging from her ability and knowledge at the time, it was not enough to support her to make a better choice. To be more virtuous, wasn't she a victim at the time?

Siran actually didn't know what to say when he asked her out, so after organizing his words in his mind, he spoke.

"You don't have to be like this. Sister Zhou told me some of your past. Although I still blame you for being irresponsible and giving birth to me and abandoning me, after I know those things, I don't seem to blame you that much."

Although she was prepared for Siran's attitude towards her to soften somewhat because Sister Zhou had informed her in advance, but hearing Siran's tone which was obviously calmer than before, the development of things was still much better than she expected, and she couldn't help but have red eyes and the urge to cry.

But thinking that they were outside and the waiter would come to serve the food soon, if she really couldn't control her emotions, she was afraid that it would bring unnecessary trouble to Siran.

Sister Zhou said that Siran was well educated and was more suitable to be a star than she was back then. With the support of the Ji family, she should have a bright future. She had already felt sorry enough for Siran and could not affect her further because of her selfishness.

Jiang Ya raised her head and tried to calm herself down, holding back the tears that were about to fall. Then she smiled and said to Siran, "I heard from Sister Zhou that you want to develop in the theater in the future and no longer take on film and television works."

This was not a secret, and Siran had no intention of hiding it, so he nodded and said, "I do have this plan, but everything depends on how things go after I graduate. There are still two years left, so nothing can be predicted."

"Can you tell me why? I remember you said you loved acting. Why did you suddenly decide not to appear on the screen? Is it because... because of me?"

Jiang Ya asked hesitantly, not because she was narcissistic, but because Sister Zhou told her that Yuanluo had brought Siran to the company that day in order to plan her future development path.

But after Siran asked Sister Zhou about her past, she was silent for a long time before telling Sister Zhou that there was no need to plan her future development path, as she wanted to work in the theater after graduation.

Therefore, Sister Zhou also told Jiang Ya to give Siran some advice and not let her make a decision that she would regret because of a momentary impulse.

Si Ran listened to her tentative words and said, "Not entirely, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world. As long as I am active on the screen, there will be people paying attention to me.

By then, our relationship will no longer be a secret. Rather than being maliciously speculated about in the future, it is better to fade out of the public eye as soon as possible."

"If that's the reason, you can always deny our relationship. I just wanted to see you more and never thought of letting your relationship with me be affected."

Si Ran listened to her earnest words and suddenly remembered what happened when she was filming "The Cage". She felt that Jiang Ya was a bit contradictory, so she said, "If you didn't want to affect me, then why did you have to change the script and add more scenes so that we could play mother and daughter?"
