Chapter 16 Run Away When You See Me?

It was already dark when Wen Ran got off work. She bought a bowl of oden at a convenience store near the community and went straight into her small studio when she got home.

Wen Ran didn't have any urgent projects on hand, so it was not difficult for her to come up with a jewelry design within seven days.

But Wen Ran has never been a procrastinating person since she was a child. She likes the feeling of security of holding things tightly.

Wen Ran's dedication lasted until after eleven o'clock in the evening, when he was interrupted by a phone call.

It's Ivy.

Ivy complained at the top of her voice, “Wen Ran, what are you doing?”

Wen Ran looked at the table and said, “Draw a draft design.”

“Drawing a draft design?” Ivy thought, okay, it's business, she lost her temper, “Okay, okay, Li Wan and I were discussing where to go and what to eat tomorrow in the group chat, and you haven't said a word for a long time.”

“It's up to you to decide. I have no opinion.”

Ivy was unhappy when she heard this. “You are not a tool, can you participate a little?”

“...Then let me take a look.”

After hanging up the phone, Wen Ran carefully looked through the chat history in the group.

The place Ivy suggested going to is the “Museum of Broken Relationships” which has been very popular on the Internet recently. There is an Internet-famous restaurant in a shopping mall not far from the “Museum of Broken Relationships”, so they can go there to eat after the visit.

Wen Ran had no objection to this arrangement.

Wen Ran, [Yes.]

Ivy, you are really good at participating [thumbs up]

Li Wan,[It's settled then?]

Ivy, [Can we meet at the square at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon?]

Li Wan,[OK]

Wen Ran, [Yes.]

Saturday.

Wen Ran got up early in the morning and perfected the draft design. As she was drawing, she had new ideas.

Just as she was about to make some changes, the alarm on her cell phone rang. Wen Ran immediately put down what she was doing and started to pack herself up.

When Wen Ran took a taxi to the meeting point, Ivy and Li Wan had not arrived yet.

Not long after, Li Wan came out of the subway entrance.

Ivy was the last to arrive, just in time.

Ivy bought the tickets online in advance, and the three of them checked their tickets and entered the museum.

The Museum of Broken Relationships consists of several rooms. It’s not a big place and uses mirrors to magnify the visual effect. Plus, because it’s the weekend, there are so many people that we can only move at the speed of the crowd.

Wen Ran had no interest in these things at first, but he couldn't walk, so he could only follow and watch.

Each exhibit in the grid is accompanied by a text introduction, telling a gripping love story.

There are stacks of round-trip tickets between two cities, telling the helplessness of love;

There are pregnancy test sticks and ultrasound reports, accusing love of being cruel;

There are wedding dresses and wedding shoes, expressing the regrets of love...

Some visitors may have felt the same way and shed a few tears.

Wen Ran felt calm, she felt that love was the icing on the cake for life.

If love is sad, then it can be completely removed.

So it’s important to live your life well.

Ivy changed the subject, “Do you have a boyfriend?”

Wen Ran shook his head, and Li Wan also shook his head.

Li Wan said that she had never been in a serious relationship and only had a little ambiguity with a classmate in college. However, maybe everyone knew that they would go their separate ways after graduation, so they didn't break the paper and the relationship never started.

Ivy disagreed, “I think people should be a little selfish, enjoy life while it lasts, don't worry about so many things, just talk about it first.”

Li Wan shook her head, “I think you should consider all aspects when starting a relationship. After all, it's a lifelong relationship. Otherwise, look at these...”

She pointed at the exhibits and said, “This is the ending.”

Ivy was furious. “If everyone is so cautious about love, what kind of love is that? Love is the impulse of the moment. It is hard to control the emotion at the moment, so it is so vigorous.”

As they talked, they turned their attention to Wen Ran.

Wen Ran was stunned for two seconds, like a peacemaker, “What you two said makes sense.”

Li Wan took two steps forward and turned around, “Ivy, you are a person with ideas.”

Ivy asked, “What do you mean?”

Li Wan's eyes dodged, and he casually glanced at the display cabinets. “My relative introduced me to a blind date. We've been chatting on and off for half a year. Recently, he asked me to meet him.”

Ivy immediately became interested and leaned forward, “What do you mean?”

Li Wan pursed her lips, “It's a bit embarrassing to be alone, so I thought...”

During the Chinese New Year at the beginning of the year, Li Wan went back to his hometown. He was reluctant at the time and added that person's contact information in order to deal with relatives. However, after chatting for half a year, he felt that the person's conversation, work, living habits, etc. were all pretty good.

That person must have felt that Li Wan was a good guy, as he mentioned twice in recent days that he wanted to meet her when he was free.

Li Wan understood what he meant. It simply meant that since they were attracted to each other, they wanted to develop the relationship seriously.

But Li Wan had never been in a relationship, and the blind date was with such a strong purpose, so she felt nervous and wanted to find a friend to go with her.

But she has no friends in Shanghai.

When she first came to Shanghai, she wanted to make friends.

But she rented a house and had changing roommates one after another.

Her colleagues at the company responded to her enthusiasm with only distant politeness.

But the feeling that Wen Ran and Ivy gave Li Wan was just like when she had just graduated, gentle and enthusiastic.

“Wen Ran and I will go with you.” Ivy was smart and understood what Li Wan meant. She was also very interested in blind dates. She took Wen Ran's arm and said, “Wen Ran and I will warm up the atmosphere for you. I promise it won't be awkward.”

Li Wan looked at Wen Ran and confirmed, “Is it okay?”

It's okay. Wen Ran nodded, “Okay.”

Li Wan smiled shyly and took out his phone, “I'll ask him and arrange a time.”

Wen Ran felt that Li Wan must like that man very much.

Ivy bought a package ticket, which included the Museum of Broken Relationships, the Stress Relief Museum and the Starry Sky Art Museum.

After leaving the Museum of Broken Relationships, the Stress Relief Museum is right next to it.

There are dolls that anyone can squeeze, a foam pool that anyone can step on, and a whole wall of screaming chickens that anyone can bump into.

Many people crashed into the wall from a long distance away, and the screaming chickens on the wall and the people made a sound that irritated the eardrums.

The people who were playing got up from the ground, laughing, but Wen Ran felt his heart tremble at the unpleasant sound.

Li Wan and Ivy were obviously very interested in this place, and even pulled Wen Ran to quicken their pace, wanting to experience it quickly.

Wen Ran wrinkled his face, retracted his arms, and apologized, “I don't want to play. I'll go to the Starry Sky Art Museum next door and wait for you.”

Ivy urged again, “Since you are here, why don't you try it out?”

Wen Ran shook his head, his slightly round eyes filled with rejection.

Ivy had no choice but to give up.

When you enter the Starry Sky Art Museum, you will see billingbilling colors everywhere. The use of six-sided refraction in the space makes you feel as if you are in the universe and the stars.

It was beautiful, but Wen Ran felt dizzy after concentrating on it for a while.

Wen Ran had no choice but to walk to the side and go to another space.

Another space is entirely shaded with the same light, which changes color every ten seconds. There are relatively few people here, with only a few taking photos.

Wen Ran glanced around and saw a familiar figure.

He was wearing a loose casual shirt, as tall as a male model, and wearing a black mask, revealing his Western-style eyebrows and eyes.

Wen Ran was stunned for a moment, not quite sure that this person was Yan Wangshu.

How could he come to a place like this?

He also took the trouble to take photos for a young girl.

The girl was wearing a tight white shirt and a pink plaid miniskirt. There was a bow of the same color on her collar. Her hair was slightly yellow with a bow hairpin on the side.

Like anime characters.

The girl struck a lively pose, and after taking the photo, she ran to Yan Wangshu to check the results.

She was obviously dissatisfied, and she stamped her feet coquettishly and gave Yan Wangshu a look of disdain.

Is this person really Yan Wangshu?

Wen Ran exited this space with doubts.

She returned to the entrance to wait for Ivy and Li Wan.

More than ten minutes later, Ivy and Li Wan came over.

Wen Ran followed them inside, “I think I saw President Yan just now.”

“President Yan? Which President Yan?” Ivy had a feeling that Wen Ran had seen it wrong. “Impossible! Are you sure?”

Even though I'm wearing a mask...

But that height, those eyebrows...

Wen Ran had no choice but to tell the whole story.

Ivy was even more certain that it wasn't Yan Wangshu. “President Yan can be ordered around by his girlfriend? I guess they just look alike.”

Li Wan also thought it was impossible, “And isn't President Yan's girlfriend that female star, Yan Ran?”

“...” Wen Ran blinked, not quite sure, “Maybe they really do look alike.”

The three of them checked in one space after another and took a lot of photos.

Finally, there's a dizzying mirror maze.

The mirror maze is full of mirror scenes, and you will easily bump into the wall if you are not careful.

The three of them were originally walking together, but they separated as they walked.

Wen Ran walked carefully, waving his hands in front of him tentatively, for fear of accidentally bumping into someone.

She placed her palm against the cool mirror and immediately used her hands and feet to feel out which side was the real path.

Draw a semicircle on the ground with your left foot and lunge slightly.

Well, there is no wall on the left, it is a real road.

Wen Ran turned left stiffly.

In the four... no, six transparent mirrors, Yan Wangshu stood there with his hands in his pockets. His posture was much more casual than usual. I don't know how long he had been watching.

Wen Ran,!!!

Two seconds later, Wen Ran turned around so fast that the hem of her skirt was lifted up in a circle.

The next second, there was a crisp “bang”.

Wen Ran was hit hard this time and took several steps back, covering his forehead.

There was a stinging pain from my forehead, and even my scalp was numb.

Yan Wangshu walked over, half smiling and half teasing, “Am I that scary? You run away when you see me?”

Wen Ran knew that the scene just now was indeed funny, so it was no wonder that he made fun of it.

Wen Ran was wearing flat leather shoes today, and her height was only up to Yan Wangshu's chest.

She looked up, her clear eyes alert like a deer, then leaned back, her back against the wall, her slender hands covering her brows, her face flushed, “President Yan.”

Yan Wangshu frowned slightly and said in a teasing tone, “It seems that I am really the one who scares people.”

Wen Ran just realized that this was the same as admitting that he saw him, recognized him, and then turned around and banged his head against the wall in fear!

Wen Ran shook his head and said, “No.”

He was wearing a mask, so she couldn't see his specific expression.

Yan Wangshu looked away and turned around, “Let's go.”

Let’s go?

Let’s go together?

In no mood.

Wen Ran didn't move.

Yan Wangshu half turned around, his profile looking fierce, “Aren't you leaving?”

Wen Ran then followed him.

It was strange that although Yan Wangshu walked slowly, he was able to find the real road accurately without using his feet or hands to explore.

It took a while to reach the exit.

Yan Wangshu turned around and said, “You go out first.”

“And you?”

After saying this, Wen Ran secretly annoyed himself for speaking too quickly and asking such a question.

I thought Yan Wangshu would not answer, but he did, and said he still needed to find someone.

Wen Ran guessed that he was looking for the girl just now.

Li Wan came out before Ivy. She saw Wen Ran's forehead was red and held back her laughter. “You walked so slowly; how could you bump into someone like this?”

Wen Ran pursed her lips, looking aggrieved.

Li Wan thought she was in a lot of pain, so he stopped smiling and asked with concern, “What's wrong? Is it painful?”

Wen Ran shook his head, “I met President Yan.”

“Really?” Li Wan opened his eyes wide unconsciously.

Wen Ran nodded, “Really!”

“I can't?”

“I am sure.”

“Isn't that two-timing?”

Wen Ran, “...”

Li Wan was confused, and when she looked up, she saw Yan Wangshu and a young girl walking out one after the other, and their eyes were fixed in their direction. She couldn't hide even if she wanted to.

Li Wan stood up and greeted, “President Yan, what a coincidence.”

Yan Wangshu nodded slightly in response.

Yan Wangshu turned his head to look at Wen Ran who was sitting on the leather stool.

She was wearing a light green halter dress, revealing her fair skin. Her right hand was covering her forehead, her head was buried, and her soft black hair fell to her chest, covering her little face.

Yan Wangshu walked over and called her, “Wen Ran.”

Wen Ran, am I not transparent enough???

She kept a polite expression on her face and raised her head, “President Yan.”

“Does it hurt?”

“!??” Wen Ran put his hand down, “Much better.”

She had a full forehead and clear white skin, with a small fist-sized red mark between her eyebrows, which didn't look serious.

Yan Wangshu looked at it for two seconds and said, “If you feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital.”

“ ...Thank you President Yan for your concern.”

The girl next to him seemed to be getting impatient waiting, “Uncle, hurry up!”

uncle?
