Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn

Shi Lan had always been wild and untamed, a staunch advocate for freedom. She would never bind others with any so-called moral ethics, similarly, she would not be bound by anyone else.

In the past, she had Yan Shixiu and a marriage certificate.

Although Yan Shixiu felt it was a mere formality, throughout those three years, he had never heard the words 'divorce' from her lips.

And now? It seemed she was completely free, more elusive and unpredictable like the wind.

But... Shi Lan was Shi Lan, regardless of which life, she would always belong to Yan Shixiu.

...

In the evening, Huahai sent someone to pick up Shi Lan from the hotel. After hearing Tang Ze's explanation, she found it reasonable and had no objections. Her image as a 'green tea bitch' was now deeply ingrained in people's hearts, and Huahai's many concerns were justified.

More importantly, she could finally enjoy the luxury of a big bed and fragrant spa treatments to take care of her body.

Thinking back to her past life with her delicate, slender hands—a global signature—although An Lan's natural conditions were not bad, filming conditions were harsh, and it was inevitable that her hands were not meticulously cared for. And that scar on her wrist was truly unsightly, affecting the senses. She would need to undergo a scar lightening treatment, but even so, the possibility of becoming a hand model again was practically impossible.

While bathing, Shi Lan saw the healing scar on her wrist, reddish-purple in color, stretching across her entire wrist: "It's so ugly, maybe I'll get something tattooed over it."

But, for some reason, whenever she thought about getting a tattoo, Shi Lan would envisage Yan Shixiu's moist, shadowy, and guarded eyes.

Upon reflection, Shi Lan felt conflicted. Although she was annoyed about her wealth being inherited by others in her previous life, she understood that those assets no longer belonged to her. Dwelling on it was pointless, but Yan Shixiu... caused her much anguish.

And yet, that bastard had divided her wealth so decisively...

Shi Lan thought for a moment; here she could tattoo the character 'Shi,' styled as an English letter, representing Shi Lan's 'Shi' and also Yan Shixiu's 'Shi', marking it as her own seal, to remind herself that those were matters of a past life.

The two days flew by quickly.

Tang Ze, along with Shi Lan's new assistant, came to the hotel to escort her to the film set for check-in.

Upon entering Shi Lan's room, Tang Ze was astounded. Whether it was due to the hotel's excellent food or not, Shi Lan no longer looked like a lifeless, bloodless doll, but rather, she appeared much healthier and more radiant.

Looking around her room, the bar held empty bottles of red wine, the desk displayed the hotel's most famous pastries, the most expensive face masks rested on the nightstand, and new clothes neatly ironed hung in the closet. If it weren't for Shi Lan's presence, Tang Ze would have thought he'd entered the bedroom of an international superstar.

"Seems like you've got the mindset of a big star now, not bad! Oh, and this is Sun Ling, your temporary assistant. She'll take care of your daily needs during the filming of 'Smoke Beauty'. She's very competent and can fulfill all your requests,"

Tang Ze's implication being, if Shi Lan was satisfied, they could consider signing a long-term contract.

Shi Lan surveyed the new arrival from the sofa—a capable-looking girl in her mid-twenties, with long, straight black hair. While not exquisite, she looked tidy, clean-cut, and full of vitality.

"How good are you at arguing?" This was the first thing Shi Lan said to Sun Ling.

Tang Ze: "..."

Sun Ling: "..."

When it came time to join the cast, it was bound to be chaotic. Tang Ze wondered if the assistant could keep up with Shi Lan's pace.

"It's a bit presumptuous... ahem, well, let's go then."

Sun Ling found Shi Lan very strange. When she first heard that she was taking over the role of a 'little green tea', she was quite averse. In this industry, the worst fear is dealing with an 'actress', and Shi Lan was precisely that type.

Especially this time, as the leads were the National Couple, there were rumors about her obsessing over Gu Chengyu. Sun Ling didn't know if she would end up disrupting the entire production.

Shi Lan could see the repulsion in the other's eyes, but that was normal.

"An Lan... well, Gu Chengyu and Chen Beini have been on set for two days. We might run into them when we get there since there's a lot of interaction between opponents in the script..." While Sun Ling spoke, she continued to observe Shi Lan.

"Running into them would be best." After Shi Lan got into the car, she flipped through the script while responding.

After hearing her answer, Sun Ling felt like she needed an oxygen mask.
