Chapter 408 - 408 First Row!

408 First Row!

Chu Cichen furrowed his brows and followed Shen Ruojing. However, his gaze landed on the seats with nameplates in the second row.

Hmm…he had no idea of Jingjing’s status among scientists.

Although Divine Doctor Jing was usually responsible for treating illnesses, she had also researched and concocted many miraculous medical pills. Logically speaking, she did have a connection with the scientific research industry…

Just when he was thinking, he saw Shen Ruojing walking past the second row without giving it a glance and arrived at the first row seats…

!!

Chu Cichen’s phoenix eyes flashed with surprise. He looked at Shen Ruojing, only to see her heading in the left direction.

Chu Cichen’s gaze followed her and landed on the seat she was walking toward. Very soon, he saw the seat with Prof. Z’s name.

Prof. Z had been leading a retired life in Sea City…

Jingjing also always talked about enjoying life in retirement.

Could it be that…

His pupils constricted as he stared at Shen Ruojing in astonishment.

Shen Ruojing’s side profile was absolutely beautiful. When the dim lighting fell on her face, it accentuated her cool demeanor and the resolve in her gaze.

Chu Cichen retracted his gaze and his lips suddenly curled.

How many more secrets did his Jingjing have that he had no idea about?

Chu Qianshu and Shen Jiayi were both dumbstruck.

Even people who were seated beside them were stunned after seeing the actions of the two.

The major characters seated in the front row would usually be invited backstage for a rest the moment they entered. So, those people would be entering from a side door near the first row later.

Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen were both good-looking and looked very conspicuous. Hence, many people on the scene were observing them. At this moment, when they saw these two walking toward the empty first row, everyone started to discuss in private.

“Who are these two people? Don’t they know the rules?”

“My heavens, could it be that they wanted to get the major characters to sign autographs for them? Before they came, didn’t the staff members tell them the rules of this award ceremony? Are they going to openly defy the rules?”

“Those who can come here are all people with statuses. Isn’t it too embarrassing that they are ignoring their own statuses and going to the front so blatantly?”

“…”

Chu Qianshu anxiously stood up after hearing the comments from the surroundings. She wanted to rush over to stop the two of them, yet she didn’t dare to go to the front row. Hence, she could only stand at the third row and lowered her voice as she shouted, “Brother, no one is permitted to go near the first row. Where are you guys going? Come back quickly!”

She had an extremely embarrassed look on her face.

She had emphasized the rules here to them many times, but her ignorant eldest sister-in-law simply had no respect for them!

Although their family had money and status, this was a gathering of the academic world!

In this place, one’s background didn’t matter!

She was really afraid that the two of them might screw things up and say something in arrogance such as “I’ll cover all the fees for this event!” If that were the case, she probably would dig a hole right away and bury herself!

Chu Cichen turned his head to look at her and shot her a comforting glance. “Don’t be nervous, I’m just going with your sister-in-law as she has a family member’s allocation seat.”

Chu Qianshu. “??”

Family member allocation seat? From her sister-in-law?

She felt that maybe her command of the Chinese language had deteriorated because she focused too hard on research overseas. How could her sister-in-law possibly have a seat in the front row, let alone any seat allocations for family members?!

On the other hand, a hint of excitement gleamed in Shen Jiayi’s eyes. She directly looked at the guards standing at the side as she called out. “What are you all waiting for? Those two people are already in the first row!”

At this moment, even the guards were dumbfounded.

In an event like this, only scientists were qualified to be here. Also, when these scientists entered, they were told the rules and they knew not to go to the first rows. Although everyone might be very excited when they saw the major characters, they would usually comply with the rules.

So, the security guards had been pretty relaxed. This was the first time they encountered guests that ignored the rules.

The two guards then glanced at each other before hurrying over. Just before Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen sat down, the two guards stopped them. “Hi, you guys cannot come near the first row if your names are not on the nameplates. Please head to the back seats instead.”

Their voices weren’t loud, but because the people near the front rows were watching them, the four people in front looked very conspicuous.

After that, the people in the hall gradually quieted down and everyone was looking at them.

Now, a hint of mockery appeared in Shen Jiayi’s eyes.

Shen Ruojing was a buffoon and only knew how to beat people up. However, she didn’t understand that a place like this wasn’t one where she could casually enter!

The Shen Family was the number one family in the capital. But even so, Shen Yuansong had no way to give the special contribution award to himself. From this, one could see how heavy the weightage of this scientific award event was.

Chu Qianshu was even more anxious now. She ignored her embarrassment, and just when she was about to rush over to drag Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen back, she heard Shen Ruojing saying, “I have a nameplate with my name on it.”

After saying this, the entire scene fell silent again.

Shen Jiayi was stunned. Her eyes then turned round and she sneered. “How is that possible? Shen Ruojing, you are simply ignorant and ridiculous! Guards, don’t believe her. She merely came here hoping to get a seat!”

The guards were stunned too.

As the security guards here, they had long since memorized the names of all the important characters. Also, there didn’t seem to be a young man and woman among those important characters seated in the first row.

The guards coughed and spoke, “Sorry, please show us your invitation.”

The invitation would definitely contain the name of the invited person.

Shen Ruojing took her phone out and searched for the invitation in her email. “Please wait a moment.”
