Chapter 851 The Entertainment Industry, The Original Female Lead Killed by the Transmigrator (17)

Xiao Yun was also very curious about this. Zhang Dongfeng's mother was a well-known and formidable woman in the area. She kept her husband under strict control and never let him suffer a loss outside. Logically speaking, if she knew that the other party had such a father, she definitely wouldn't agree to it.

“How can a mother go against her child’s wishes? Zhang Dongfeng adores his wife, and they got together on their own. His mother can’t do anything about it,” said Xiao’s mother.

Xiao Yun nodded. That made sense. If Yao Yao found a wife who didn't suit her taste, she would at most just ignore her. She really wouldn't abandon her son.

Seeing that the kitten had eaten its fill, Xiao's mother went to get it a deep dish to hold water and was about to make a nest for it in a fruit box, but Xiao Yun stopped her.

"Mom, there's no need to build a cat bed for it. I'm going to town to buy cat litter and a litter box anyway, so I'll just buy them on the way back. I'll buy one that I can put in the car, so it'll be useful when we go back."

After thinking about it, Xiao's mother stopped what she was doing and said to her daughter, "Okay, you can go now. Buy some meat and vegetables on your way back. We'll just have something simple for lunch, and cook something nice for dinner."

Xiao Yun and Xiao Yu nodded in agreement, greeted their father who was watching TV in the living room, and then drove to town.

The village is only a few miles from the town, and there are few cars on the road at this time of day, so it only takes a few minutes to get there.

They went straight to the market, first buying the chicken, fish, meat, eggs, and vegetables that Xiao's mother had instructed them to prepare, and then followed the navigation to the pet supply store.

"Are you... Xiao Yun?" a female voice asked hesitantly.

Xiao Yun came in and went straight to look at the cat bed by the door, not paying attention to anything else. When she heard the sound, she looked inside and saw a young woman holding a child looking at her with a look of surprise.

Xiao Yun searched through the original owner's memories and quickly found the person's identity information. This was Liu Ran, the original owner's classmate in junior high school. The two had even been deskmates for a year and had a pretty good relationship, sharing little secrets with each other.

However, the original person went to high school and then university, while the other person went to vocational high school.

The two initially kept in touch occasionally, but as the original owner of this body entered her senior year of high school and focused on preparing for the college entrance exams, she could hardly use electronic devices anymore, so their contact decreased. Later, they would exchange New Year's greetings, and eventually, they gradually stopped contacting each other altogether.

Of course, the original owner had also received invitations to class reunions, but they were all high school classmates; she had never actually had a reunion with her junior high school classmates.

The original owner went to high school in the county, where she met a new group of people. She didn't get along very well with them because she was too busy studying and didn't make any close friends. So the original owner never went there.

However, the class group is still there. This summer, someone in the group wanted to organize a class reunion, but the response was not as good as before. We've only been working for a few years, and not many of us have achieved anything, so we don't have much to brag about.

Since the original owner of this body had never participated, Xiao Yun would certainly not go.

Liu Ran put the child who refused to sleep in the stroller next to her, handed him a toy, and then walked over, took Xiao Yun's hand, and looked her up and down.

"It's been so long! You've changed so much. Luckily, I've seen your recent TV dramas and movies, or I wouldn't have recognized you."

You look so much better in person than on TV! Your face is so radiant, it's like you could squeeze water out of it! I thought it was just a filter before, but it's really true. How do you maintain your youthful appearance?

Seeing that the other party looked so natural, as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, Xiao Yun chuckled and replied, "Liu Ran, it really has been a long time. It's been almost ten years since we last met."

Is this your child? When did you get married? Why didn't you tell me? My phone number hasn't changed. Given our relationship, I should at least send my blessings!

"Do you own this shop? With so many people keeping pets these days, your business must be doing pretty well, right?"

"No, you've guessed both of them wrong. This is my sister's child. She went out to do something, so I'm watching the shop for her for a while. This shop is also hers. I'm off today, and since I had nowhere else to go, I came here to play."

As for not being in touch for the past two years, it really wasn't intentional. My house caught fire the year before last. We were all safe, but almost everything was burned, including my notes and phone. I've lost contact with many people since then.

Xiao Yun thought about it and realized that Liu Ran had gone to a nursing school, which should have made it easier for him to find a job. However, he hadn't expected that Liu Ran's house had been on fire. No wonder he hadn't sent any New Year's text messages in the past two or three years.

If the original owner were still alive, she would probably have taken the initiative to contact the other party, and maybe they could have reconnected. But after she arrived, she felt it wasn't necessary, so they basically stopped contacting each other.

"So, are you working at the hospital now?" Xiao Yun asked.

Liu Ran nodded: "Yes, working as a nurse at the town health center doesn't pay much, but it's quite easy. Some of my classmates got jobs at the county hospital through connections, and I heard they're exhausted every day and have to work shifts, but their salary is only 300 yuan more than mine. They all regret it and want to quit."

Hey~ Let's not talk about me, let's talk about you. You've finally achieved your dream, you're a real big star now! What brings you back now? It's still a long way from Chinese New Year. And you even brought your pet back with you?

Before Xiao Yun could answer, the shop door opened again, and a gust of cold wind blew in. Liu Ran quickly said to the other side, "Welcome, what would you like to buy?"

Xiao Yun also turned around and saw that it was Xiao Yu. She smiled at Liu Ran and said, "This is my boyfriend, Xue Wenxi. He just went to park the car, so I came in first."

Then he said to Xiao Yu, "This is Liu Ran, my classmate, and also my best friend from middle school."

Xiao Yu greeted Liu Ran with a smile, and Liu Ran exclaimed in surprise, "Girl, you're amazing! Aren't celebrities supposed to be afraid to reveal their relationships for fear of losing fans? You're so open and honest, you're a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry!"

Xiao Yun shook her head with a smile and said, "It's not as serious as you make it out to be. Things are so different now than before. Information is so readily available that you can't hide anything if you want to. Besides, I don't rely on fans or online traffic. I'm an actress, and I have to rely on my acting skills. You know, my dream used to be to be an actress, to play all kinds of roles."

Of course, it's also for making money, but after entering this industry, I realized that celebrities are celebrities and actors are actors, they are really different.

Relatively speaking, celebrities earn money more easily because they are more famous and can command higher appearance fees for endorsements and commercial performances, so they need to maintain their public image.

But look at those famous actors, which one of them didn't get married and have children normally? It doesn't affect their ability to get roles at all. Ordinary people don't pay attention to these things, they only care about whether their roles are well-acted.

Only celebrities who rely on fan bases for popularity worry about losing fans and facing backlash, which could damage their careers; therefore, they often keep their marriages and children secret.

Liu Ran nodded, "That's true. I only recognize the faces of many actors, but I don't know their names at all. On the other hand, celebrities are always on TV and online, in commercials and variety shows. They're everywhere. After hearing about them so much, I can recognize them as soon as I see them."

You too, if we hadn't been together for three years and were so familiar with each other, even if I knew you went to drama school, I wouldn't recognize you at first glance, especially since you even changed your name. By the way, you still haven't said what you're back for?"

Xiao Yun: "We came back to attend my cousin's wedding. I happened to be free during this period and didn't have anything to do, so I came back with them."

We'll also get our marriage certificate while we're at it, but the wedding won't be until next spring.

Liu Ran was even more surprised this time, "Really! You're so fast! Congratulations! Don't forget to let me know when you set the date, I'll definitely be there, and I'll be your bridesmaid!"

Xiao Yun laughed and said, "No problem, that's exactly what I meant. You don't know, I haven't made any close friends since you. I was even worried about who to ask to be my bridesmaid. You know our local custom, younger sisters can't be bridesmaids. I didn't expect to run into you today. Quickly remember my contact information, we can't lose touch again!"

He then took out his phone and added her on WeChat, giving her two phone numbers, one for work and one for personal use. "If you can't reach one of them, you can call the other. Sometimes when I'm filming, I leave my phone with my assistant temporarily."

Oh, right, we came here to buy cat beds and litter, and we found a kitten on our way back today. It looks like it's only two or three months old. We'd like a cat bed and litter box that can fit in the car so we can take them home with us..."

Liu Ran patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll help you choose. Don't think that just because this shop is owned by my sister, I don't know it well. I often come here to help out, so I can make some decisions for you. I'll pick out the best ones and give you a discount!"

Xiao Yun raised her hand to interrupt her, "Stop, just pick the good ones, forget about discounts, don't end up selling them at a loss for your sister, and she'll punish you. Besides, your sister is rich now, she doesn't haggle when she buys things, she's not short of money~".

Liu Ran was amused by her appearance and knew that she didn't lack these three melons. In a small town like theirs, even the best things couldn't compare to those in the capital.

"Alright, alright, you're God now, you call the shots. This lavish and powerful attitude is really tempting!"

After buying everything that Guai Guai needed, and once again saying goodbye to Liu Ran, I drove home.

To be honest, in the few worlds she's experienced recently, apart from the few new friends she made when her original body returned to the cultivation world, she didn't make any in the other two. This is mainly because the original body wasn't the sociable type and didn't have any close friends from childhood, so she was too lazy to make any more friends.
