Chapter 2442 - Newbie Ji Yan?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The anticipation for the show was largely due to the union of this perfect on-screen couple. Hence, any news about these two people would definitely snatch the headline.

Gu Xingze gazed gently at her for a long time before he brushed past her and walked away.

The reporters were stunned for a second, then they gave chase to the man.

When the director reached the scene and witnessed the chaos, he hit the roof. “How did these nosy flies get in?! Haven’t I repeatedly instructed not to allow any reporters here?!”

“We don’t know how these journalists managed to slip in, but they created a hubbub here!”

The director quickly assigned some men to maintain order and the kickoff ceremony was able to start finally.

Throughout the ceremony, Hua Jin stuck close to the protagonist. He would grumble against the noise incessantly one moment and then would fill her in about the latest gossip the next. The woman was not irritated by his nonstop chattering. On the contrary, she found the present him more likeable and cuter.

As the ceremony was about to end, an employee suddenly rushed over and whispered to the director, “Ji Yan is here.”

“Ji Yan?”

“Yes… It’s that newbie whom the investor specifically arranged to star in this production. She’s the supporting actress.”

“Oh!” The director mulled for a while before he frowned unhappily. “She’s very late!”

“She said that she was delayed by some problems on her way here.”

“Problems?”

“Yes. Her car was tailgated and she had to shake off the stalker before taking a cab here.”

The director continued to grumble under his breath, “Well, the ceremony is about to end, so what’s the point of rushing over now? The media will make a joke out of this! Tell her to get lost!”

“This isn’t ideal, director.” His worker voiced a concern. “No matter what, she was designated as the supporting actress. If we chase her away, she can complain to the investor and get us in trouble.”

The facial muscles of the director twitched for a while, then he eventually gave in. “Let her in!”

“Understood.”

Yun Shishi caught snippets of their conversation at a distance and asked Hua Jin curiously, “Who is Ji Yan?”

The man next to her replied softly, “I heard she’s a newbie with a strong backer, which allowed her to join the production easily.”

“Where did you get your news from?”

“I got this from other sources, actually. There have been rumors circulating online about her. Many said that she looks like Yan Bingqing.”

The actress’s facial expression froze the moment she heard that name.

“Yan Bingqing?”

“Yes.” The actor nodded. “She vanished completely from the public eye a while back, remember? After Ji Yan’s makeup photo was posted on Weibo, many netizens commented that she looks a lot like Yan Bingqing.”

In fact, many of them even suspected that Yan Bingqing had disappeared overseas to undergo cosmetic surgery.

[I’m pretty sure she went to do a thorough plastic surgery so that she could re-enter showbiz, but there’s an expiration to that. One may look good at the start, but as time passes, some adverse reactions will occur. When that happens, she’ll need to reinvent her image again.]

[I’m also suspecting that she’s Yan Bingqing! What has changed may just be her stage name, and with her having bigger eyes, higher nose bridge, and slightly sharper chin. Oh, her boobs may have expanded as well.]

[OMG! So I’m not alone! I’m also finding this Ji Yan suspiciously alike with Yan Bingqing!]
