The premiere of "Meeting with Joy" was set to be held in the evening at a large movie theater in the imperial city. However, after Xiao Jia Yu woke up early in the morning, she was troubled. She looked at the two dresses that she laid flat on the bed and hesitated. At this time, the smell of the hotpot from last night was still floating in the apartment, reminding her that she had eaten the hotpot with Mu Chen until midnight.
One of the two gowns on the bed had been delivered in advance by Feng Likun. It was a silver sequined dress, a big new one, with a deep V-shaped shoulder strap on each side. She had tried it in advance and was sure it wouldn't go away, but she still felt awkward. The other dress was one that Yuan Feiqing had prepared for her when she was in her coming-of-age ceremony, but the last one she wore was a different one, so this one was still new. It was a purple dress that revealed her shoulders, but it was a design that had returned to the past.
Xiao Jia Yu hesitated for a moment. Then, he took turns wearing the two items on his body and took a picture in the mirror. After that, he sent the photos to Mu Chen and asked him to choose one of them.
At this moment, Mu Chen was in a meeting. When he heard the notification sound from his phone, he immediately apologized and subconsciously turned his phone into a mute. However, when he saw that the sender was Xiao Jiayu, he opened it without any principles. He knew about the first dress, Feng Likun had ordered it specially for him, and it seemed like the second one was some girl's personal uniform. She had a good background, and the two dresses she wore were both very pretty. However, Mu Chen secretly didn't want Xiao Jia fish to show off its meat, so he quickly went back to the second dress and continued with the meeting in a serious manner.
Xiao Jia Yu originally wanted to wear the second piece, but she was a little afraid that Feng Li Kun would be unhappy. Seeing that someone was supporting her, she quickly made up her mind.
Feng Likun had come to pick her up in a company car in the afternoon. When she saw the clothes on her body, her first reaction was indeed to be a little unhappy, but she soon became a little surprised and asked, "Jiayu, how did you get this dress?" Her question already showed that her first reaction was not to think that this dress belonged to Xiao Jiayu himself.
Xiao Jia Yu nervously tugged at her skirt, thinking that she was unhappy. She quickly explained: "Big Sister Feng, the dress you gave me was very good, but I always felt uncomfortable wearing it, so I changed it to mine."
Feng Li Kun quickly understood the reason for her uneasiness from the expression on her face. It seemed that the little girl wasn't used to wearing a revealing dress, and because of what she said afterwards, she calmed down her doubts. However, she started to be surprised by Xiao Jia Yu's ability to buy such a dress. She could tell at a glance that this dress was a custom-made version of a foreign brand name from a few years ago. Because it was more expensive than a normal brand name, it was considered a dress of small size and it was not a bad brand name. As Xiao Jiayu's manager, she naturally knew that she did not have a backer. To be able to buy such a dress at such a young age showed that her family was in good condition.
Feng Likun inevitably wanted to know more about the artists under her. Otherwise, if the media exposed her ignorance, she would be making things difficult for herself. She went straight to the point. "Jiayu, what are your parents doing?"
Xiao Jiayu hurriedly replied, "Sister Feng, it's not that I don't want to confess to you, it's just that my family doesn't want me in this circle, so …"
Feng Li Kun understood her meaning, and didn't want to press her any further.
Soon, they arrived at the theater where the premiere was held. Feng Li Kun and Xiao Jia Yu walked through the specially prepared tunnel. By this time, many of the movie's main inventions had already arrived. He Xi Yuan, Le Yu Jia, and Shen Feng were already present. Although the cast had been busy lately, they still had to attend the opening day of the movie theater. However, they wouldn't be participating in the promotional events in other cities.
Xiao Jia Yu quickly went up to greet them. Only Le Yu Jia looked at her dress and joked: "Jia Yu, I also took a fancy to this piece of clothing three years ago, but others said it was limited edition and it was sold out when I wanted to buy it. Can you sell it to me at a high price later?"
Today was the day when this movie was truly tested by the market. As a director, He Xiyuan was inevitably a bit nervous, but after hearing her words, he couldn't help but joke along with her: "Yujia, I haven't seen you for a few months, but this time I've clearly seen you fat. But you're also very broad-minded, so we're all happy for you.
"Director He, you were already biased enough at the set, but you're still biased now, so you can't be too obvious, right?"
Everyone laughed, only Feng Li Kun came out to smooth things over. "Yu Jia, this dress of Jia Yu's is sponsored by someone else. With her current state, how could she afford to buy such a gown, let alone give it to you?" She knew that Xiao Jia Yu's background was not that simple, but since Xiao Jia Yu took the initiative to hide it, it would not be good if there were many people who knew about it. Furthermore, if Xiao Jia Yu really could afford such a gown, even the most thoughtful people would not think about Xiao Jia Yu's family background.
Music was originally just a joke. Now that Feng Likun mentioned it, it was time for the conversation to end.
Xiao Jia Yu sat beside Shen Feng, who was still wearing his headphones and listening to music. Shen Feng quickly took off his headphones and asked: "How have you been recently?"
Xiao Jia Yu smiled as she replied, "Life is still pretty much the same as before, but because of me, I don't even dare to go out recently."
Shen Feng also smiled and then said tiredly: "The Star King is unwilling to cancel the contract. Tian Chen will go over to talk about the price they have been raising."
Xiao Jiayu frowned, "But the amount of money we have to pay for the cancellation of the contract is definitely written in the contract. Even if the Star King wants to raise the price, there is no basis for it."
Shen Feng shook his head and said: "Of course they know, they just wanted to stall for time."
When Shen Feng said this, Xiao Jia Yu understood immediately. In the past, the Star King was doing it for Chen Jie Yan, so he did not care about Shen Feng's life. However, the scandal this time around had turned into Chen Jiayan. Now that Shen Feng was the company's most profitable artist, they would definitely not let him off easily.
At this moment, Xin Yue, who had just gone to the washroom when Xiao Jia Yu came, came back. She didn't hide her glare when she saw Xiao Jia Yu and found a corner to sit down.
At this moment, Le Yujia looked at Xin Yue and began to sigh emotionally, "You guys are really different from us from before. When I just started out, I even wore a few A goods dresses to attend the event, but you guys can all wear big-name dresses. I don't think our company treats me very well."
At this moment, Xiao Jia Yu felt that although her words seemed to be a joke, it was completely different from the tone she used earlier. Earlier, when she spoke to her, it was clearly to tease her, but now there was a faint hint of ridicule. Xiao Jia Yu did not know why the usually good-natured Yue Yu was acting this way. Could it be that Xin Yue had secretly offended Le Shadow Queen? She saw Shen Feng put on his earphones again, so she also pretended that she didn't hear anything.
Although Xin Yue had recently tasted the feeling of being popular, she didn't dare to face Le Shadow in person. She hurriedly said with a smile, "Le'jie, don't joke around. My dress is only sponsored."
Le Yujia gave a vague smile but did not continue.
Very soon, more or less people arrived, but the first male lead hadn't appeared yet. Feng Li Kun looked at the time and made another call, saying to He Xi Yuan, "Qing Ran has been in a hurry to film for the past few days. Feng Li Kun looked at the time and then made another phone call, saying to He Xi Yuan," Qing Ran has been in a hurry to film for the past few days.
He Xiyuan did not seem to care too much as he hurriedly said, "The premiere ceremony will only start in an hour. We'll have to ask the host to say a few more words later. We can definitely make it in time."
Feng Li Kun then asked Xiao Jia Yu to go to the dressing room to fix up her makeup. After all, this was the first time she appeared in public as an actor. Feng Li Kun also hoped that her appearance would have a stunning effect.
Although Luo Qing Ran arrived late, he was still able to make it in time for the premiere. He was the first to appear on stage, with Luo Qing Ran and Le Yu Jia standing to the left and right of He Xi Yuan. However, when Xiao Jia Yu and Xin Yue appeared together, they still received a lot of attention. Of course, the reason was different.
The host of the premiere was the head of the domestic film channel, so the atmosphere quickly became lively. In addition, it was packed to the brim, giving all the hosts present the opportunity to speak up. Of course, the main voice still belonged to He Xiyuan and the two true stars.
Xiao Jiayu knew that it would be great if she could maintain her role as a vase. She had always smiled at the crowd below, appearing as dignified and appropriate as she had expected.
The premiere ceremony proceeded as planned and went smoothly. When it ended, Luo Qing Ran prepared to leave the night before returning to the set. However, before she left, she called Feng Li Kun.
"Sister Feng, I saw that Jia Yu was going to participate in the promotions around the world recently, so you should stay with her." Madam Feng, I saw that Jia Yu was going to attend the promotions around the world recently, so I saw that you should stay with her. As Luo Qing Ran said this, she subconsciously glanced at Xiao Jia Yu.
Feng Likun hurriedly nodded. "That's what I meant as well. She's only just experienced what she was before, so if I don't accompany her now, even I won't be able to rest at ease."
Only then did Luo Qinggran immediately leave. He had come and gone in a hurry and was afraid that he would have to spend the night on the plane.
Feng Likun brought Xiao Jiayu away as well. It was already very late and she wanted to return as soon as possible.
On the way back to the apartment, Xiao Jia Yu recalled the strange attitude that Le Yu Jia had just displayed and could not help but ask Feng Li Kun, "Madam Feng, could it be that Xin Yue has a grudge with Le Yu Jia?"
Feng Likun seemed to heave a sigh of relief when he heard her words. "I heard that you and Xin Yue were classmates. I forgot about this matter after seeing her again today. You should avoid interacting with your classmate as much as possible in the future." I thought you were on good terms with her, but now that you're ignoring her, I'm actually relieved. "I heard news that Xin Yue went to hook up with Le Yujia's fiancé."
Xiao Jia Yu was momentarily stunned. Although she knew that Xin Yue had the habit of being close to the customer, she didn't expect her to be so bold.
Feng Li Kun continued, "Le Yujia's fiancé chased her for several years before finally getting her. He truly loves her. As for the reason why she was able to gain a foothold in the circle, she has always disliked this kind of thing, not to mention the fact that it even touched her. "
