Chapter 190 My Friend Knows Your Friend

7 PM.

Shen Jian sent Tian Xiwei a WeChat message right on time.

Tell her to meet in the hotel lobby.

I thought taking Tian Xiwei out would be a thrilling underground adventure.

But the result was surprisingly smooth.

The two met in the lobby and then simply walked out without anyone noticing or stopping them.

Shen Jian had originally been thinking about whether he should disguise himself or something, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary.

Wearing a hat and mask, and dressed in loose, baggy sportswear, Tian Xiwei walked beside Shen Jian looking quite obedient: "Haha, finally out here~."

"Didn't your agent stop you?"

Tian Xiwei smiled and nodded: "Of course I stopped them, but they were probably too tired from the flight, so they all went back to their rooms to sleep. I told them I would also rest early today, so she didn't bother me. I guess they're already asleep and have no idea that I secretly ran out to eat with you."

Shen Jian nodded: "That saves a lot of steps. To be honest, I was already prepared to have you cosplay out."

"Ha, dream on!" Tian Xiwei chuckled. "You want me to cosplay? Tell me, what do you want me to cosplay?"

"Uh—" Shen Jian looked at the lively eyes beside him, opened his mouth, but in the end he forcibly suppressed the answer in his heart.

He quickly changed the subject and asked, "By the way, how did you get my WeChat? I don't think I've ever given it to you before. Do we have some mutual friends? But I don't remember anyone mentioning you to me."

Tian Xiwei proudly waved her phone: "Of course, it's because my WeChat Moments are so powerful! I got it from my friends."

"So your friend knows me?"

"You don't recognize my friend?"

"I don't know him, how does he have my WeChat?"

Tian Xiwei: "My friend met your friend, and then my friend asked your friend for your WeChat, and then my friend recommended you to me, which is how I added you."

"6".

Shen Jian wasn't surprised when he heard Tian Xiweimei's explanation.

Just as Lin Youyou said before, it's highly likely that she got it through a friend.

However, Shen Jian did have some candidates in mind.

The most likely candidate is Meng Ziyi.

As for other friends in the industry, Shen Jian felt that none of them were indirectly acquainted with Tian Xiwei.

However, he did not continue the topic.

The two walked on the streets of Qiqihar. Although the city was not large, it was very lively and comfortable at night.

There's a unique kind of warmth and vibrancy to it.

People were strolling around the streets and alleys, appearing very relaxed.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, both of them covered their faces very thoroughly.

Of course, Shen Jian had planned the route in advance, and he took almost all the more remote roads.

Outside the hotel, paparazzi who had been following them couldn't spot them at all.

The production team is filming here, but the news has already been leaked.

So there should be quite a few reporters following along on the flight.

But it's better to avoid trouble, so Shen Jian still made some preparations and avoided their line of sight.

"By the way, where are your assistants? Why didn't they come along?"

"They're going to be watching a show later, and they also have a conference call at work, so we can just bring one home after we finish eating."

When the topic of barbecue came up, Tian Xiwei's eyes lit up again.

Even through her mask, you could feel her dimples smiling.

"Where are you going to take me to eat? You've mentioned so many places before, can we find the best one? And I also want to go to the night market."

"Won't your manager find out if you go home too late?"

Tian Xiwei said nonchalantly, "So what if they found out? We're already out here, we're going to eat our fill first."

And didn't you say this during your previous live stream? Never make things difficult for yourself, always ask for help from others! So, I guess this is also a form of encouragement for me.

Shen was speechless.

It seems that her inspirational writings ruined her.

"Alright, let's go eat barbecue first. I know a pretty famous place."

The two took a taxi and soon arrived at a restaurant called Jingxuan Barbecue.

After they went inside, they ordered a private room and started ordering a lot of things from the menu.

Tian Xiwei appears to be somewhat thin.

But when it comes to eating, he is anything but hesitant.

She ate even more than Shen Jian, and while eating, she looked at Shen Jian with interest: "Aren't you curious about who I asked to get your WeChat?"

Shen Jian thought for a moment: "Could it be Sister Meng? Or... Sister Chun?"

Tian Xiwei smiled and nodded: "That's right, it's one of the two. I'll give you another chance, choose one of the two."

"————" Shen Jian rolled his eyes: "There's no need to guess, it must be Meng Ziyi."

Tian Xiwei remained noncommittal: "Yes, you guessed right. I got it from a friend through her."

Shen Jian asked, somewhat puzzled, "Who exactly is this friend of yours?"

Tian Xiwei shook her head smugly: "My friend here is a real beauty, you know Li Yitong, right?"

"I know." Shen Jian nodded. "I've seen Teacher He Jiu's program before."

"Yes, she knows Sister Meng. I messaged her when I arrived at the hotel today, and we happened to be talking about you. She said that Sister Meng seems to know you, and since I wanted your WeChat, she asked her for it for me."

Shen Jian didn't find it strange that these young actresses knew each other through their social circles.

Perhaps some fans online are saying that everyone is competing with each other.

But in reality, the intimacy is often much greater than people imagine.

Moreover, Tian Xiwei belongs to the post-95 generation of actresses, and among them, most are laid-back and only a few are ambitious.

Moreover, many people at this stage know, to varying degrees, that they can no longer strive to climb the ladder as hard as they did when they first debuted.

Take Li Yitong, or Li Dengdeng, for example. A few years ago, when they were at the peak of their popularity, you could see the drive in their eyes, but now they have all become more indifferent.

Perhaps after reaching a certain stage, they found it difficult to overcome that invisible barrier to the top, and ultimately gave up their own sharpness.

Choose to quietly and slowly decline within this industry.

However, this is true for most actors as well. In their youth, they are glamorous and can freely choose the roles they want.

However, as actors age, their options may become increasingly limited, especially for actresses.

The meat sizzled as it was grilled.

While grilling, Shen Jian took care of Tian Xiwei by serving her meat.

"You and Sister Meng have a good relationship?" Tian Xiwei suddenly asked.

Shen Jian: "Yeah, we met on a variety show before."

Tian Xiwei: Oh, you met on a variety show, like us? Did you take her out to dinner too?

"Uh—" Shen Jian was startled.

Holy crap—this is practically a death trap question.
