“Qin Wei!”

A slightly ambiguous male voice reached them from far away. Luo Xiaoxi followed the voice and looked into a strange man’s meaningful eyes.

Qin Wei had many affairs with girls, and the man must have misunderstood her as one of them. Luo Xiaoxi was itching to kick Qin Wei away. “Get lost!”

“You’re so heartless.” Qin Wei knew what Luo Xiaoxi was afraid. He pretended to be dissatisfied and walked away.

Luo Xiaoxi turned back and went to look for Su Yicheng, who stood there with a glass of red wine in his hand and talked with the people next to him. His elegant and sedate manner made him more charming than any man present.

It was so strange that during these years, the more she looked at Su Yicheng, the more she loved him.

After the people around Su Yicheng walked away, Luo Xiaoxi walked over to him with a smile. However, Su Yicheng showed a cold look at her as if he wanted to freeze her with a thin layer of ice through his gaze. He looked so different from the modest gentleman he had been just now.

Damn! Luo Xiaoxi was depressed. She had done nothing, but why was he angry with her?

“Is it the way I walked that annoyed him?”

Before she could figure it out, loud noises were heard from the gate of the hotel. The sounds of photographers taking photos and noisy questioning voices kept echoing—

“Ruoxi, is this just a coincidence?”

“Ruoxi, do you know it before? Other actresses would try to avoid this situation. What do you think about it?”

“Ruoxi…”

It was not surprising that Han Ruoxi would come, but the reporters’ questions… seemed to be a bit awkward.

From where she sat, Luo Xiaoxi’s sight was blocked from the outside, and she could not see what was happening at the door. However, she had a bad foreboding, so she held Su Yicheng’s hands and ran out. “Let’s go to see what’s happening there.”

She saw that Han Ruoxi was escorted by a bunch of security guards while walking in. Han Ruoxi wore bright makeup on her face and had an overwhelming aura. Even the dazzling jewelry on her body couldn’t match her radiance. She was indeed the NO.1 star of Lu Enterprise Media and an international superstar.

She always looked so imposing but not overbearing, and there were news reports of her every time she showed up. This time, she impressed the reporters with her white and floor-length dress.

Luo Xiaoxi widened her eyes. “Oh, damn.” “How could she try to provoke Jianan in such a way?”

Su Yicheng squinted at her coldly. She smiled dryly and said, “I mean watch, i-watch.”

At this time, Shen Yuechuan hurried over. “Jianan and Boyan are in the restroom on the 10th floor. Should we go upstairs to tell her about it?”

“Wait.” Luo Xiaoxi walked through the crowd that surrounded Han Ruoxi and went to the front. She looked up and down at Han Ruoxi from the perspective of fashion. She touched her chin and went back to Su Yicheng and Shen Yuechuan. “Which restroom are they in?”

Shen Yuechuan said, “I’ll bring you to them.”

“Thank you.”

Luo Xiaoxi took Su Yicheng upstairs to inform Su Jianan and Lu Boyan of the emergency.

At this time, Su Jianan was still overwhelmed by a sweet feeling and felt that the air around her seemed to be full of the sweet aroma of honey.

She asked Lu Boyan, “It really doesn’t matter if you stay here?”

Lu Boyan checked the time and answered, “I will go down a while later and you can rest here. How about I ask Luo Xiaoxi to come here to accompany you?”

“No need.” Su Jianan swung her calves as she answered. “She must be with my brother now. She will hate me if I ask her to go upstairs. I will go downstairs with you.”

“Aren’t you tired?”

“I’m not tired.” Su Jianan smiled. “As you said, I have to get used to it.”

Lu Boyan was not used to seeing that Su Jianan suddenly became so cooperative. He scanned her carefully. Su Jianan tilted her head while asking, “Why are you looking at me like that. Could it be that you suddenly found your wife more photogenic than the stars in your company?”

Lu Boyan lifted his lips and said, “You’re right”

“Well?” Su Jianan smiled even more brightly. “Can I sign up for your company as a star? Xiaoxi and I could debut as a team. Maybe we’ll get famous overnight and have a promising future.”

“No.” Lu Boyan interrupted Su Jianan’s fantasies.

“Why?” Su Jianan was not content to the answer. “I’m not willing to give up my job as a medical examiner, but if I can be a star… I can resign!”

“Stars have to appear in the public. The more people know them, the better.” Lu Boyan slowly helped her put on her shoes, and when he got up, he lifted his upper body to look at her right into her eyes. His magnetic voice was low and deadly tempting. “As for you, you should be admired by me only.”

Lu Boyan’s deep gaze and tempting tone were ambiguous with unclear meanings. Su Jianan’s heart beat so fast as if she was a girl who just began to understand love, and she accidentally found that the man she loved in secret had the same feeling for her.

However, Su Jianan still pretended to be discontented and complained. “You’re being too overbearing… Should we go downstairs now?”

Lu Boyan pulled her up and walked out with his arm around her waist intimately. “You can tell me if you are tired.”

“OK.”

The two went out of the room to wait for the elevator. It didn’t take long before the door of the elevator opened. They were surprised to see Luo Xiaoxi, Su Yicheng, and Shen Yuechuan together in it.

Luo Xiaoxi looked strange, and Shen Yuechuan also looked not quite right. Su Jianan felt confused and asked them, “How did all of you go upstairs together?”

As she said that, she entered the elevator together with Lu Boyan. The clean and dust-free door of the elevator closed, and it descended slowly.

Luo Xiaoxi knew what Su Jianan was going to face when the door of the elevator opened again. She bit her teeth and simply decided to leave the problem to Su Jianan. “Jianan, you must be prepared because Han Ruoxi has come and her dress is…”

“Ding—”

Before Luo Xiaoxi could finish her words, the door of the elevator opened again. Spotlights flashed in from the crack of the door. Su Jianan panicked as she was completely exposed to the camera. The photographers went wild taking photos of her and her dress.

The reporters were allowed to go into the hotel for interviews before the banquet started. There was a rest area for the reporters in the hotel as well. The reporters were polite and didn’t block Su Jianan’s way but kept asking her questions. “Mrs. Lu, do you mind that your outfit is the same with Miss Han’s?”

“My outfit is the same with Han Ruoxi’s?” Su Jianan’s brain was blank for a second, but it was only a second before she looked at Han Ruoxi—

Han Ruoxi wore a white and floor-length dress just like her. Except a sexy high vent on Han Ruoxi’s dress, the details of Han Ruoxi’s dress were exactly the same as her dress.

Looking from a distance, others might think that they had worn dresses of the same style.

It was no wonder that the journalists would be so excited. Han Ruoxi and Su Jianan would be compared with each other even if they wore the same dresses in different places and time, let alone on an occasion where there was a great gathering of media workers.

The relationship between them was subtle, and the news that they wore the same dresses would become a hot topic.

One reporter pushed the question eagerly. “Mrs. Lu, what do you think this means? Do you mind?”

Su Jianan knew that the reporter wanted to hear her say something which could cause chaos, but if she really said that, she would make Lu Boyan lose face.

Besides, back when she tried the dress at the store, she had changed it before she got out, thus, Han Ruoxi should not have seen her dress and could not wear the same dress as her on purpose.

“This can only show that my taste is similar to that of Miss Han.” Su Jianan smiled. “There is no need for me to take it to heart. Everyone has the freedom to choose.”

The reporter did not expect to hear such a gentle answer and asked again. “Mrs. Lu, between you and Ruoxi, who do you think looks better in this dress?”

When answering such a direct and sharp question, Su Jianan would be attacked if she was not careful. Luo Xiaoxi felt nervous for Su Jianan, who, however, looked calm and even smiled more naturally and brilliantly. “This… everyone has his or her own taste.”

Shen Yuechuan thought it was time to end the interview, so, he told the security guards to remove the reporters. The reporters also knew that they should not go too far. Otherwise, once they enraged Lu Boyan, they would not be able to release the news about the hot topic on Internet. They walked away at once.

Lu Boyan smiled and said to Su Jianan, “You’ve progressed.”

Su Jianan smiled faintly and said with a trace of fear, “In fact, I don’t know what I have said…” She was just like a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers.

“You did it well.” It was rare for Lu Boyan to praise her.

Su Jianan sighed with relief. “Thank God, I don’t want to see Han Ruoxi again this evening.”

“It’s too late,” Lu Boyan said, “you are bound to be compared with each other again. It will be fine if you deal with them as you just did.”

Su Jianan actually knew that since she had worn the same dress as Han Ruoxi on such an occasion, no matter how they pretended not to care about it, she still did not want to lose to Han Ruoxi in fact. Han Ruoxi must want to win her as well. It was the battle of life and death.

“Come what may.” No matter how difficult the case was, she could always gradually analyze and restore it. She was not afraid of Han Ruoxi.

“Bravo, Jianan.” Luo Xiaoxi came over. “I thought that you would be scared.”

Su Jianan just wanted to express her disdain when she suddenly saw a person— well, Xiaoxi was in trouble.

“Yicheng!”

The voice was from Zhang Mei, who was dressed in a red and knee-length evening dress. Her steps were elegant and her smile was gentle and warm as she walked to them. It seemed that she could only see Su Yicheng at that time, and she looked like a little woman in love.

She was indeed happy. She had thought that Su Yicheng would not ask her to come to the ceremony, but when she suddenly received his text message, she was almost ecstatic. She put on her evening dress, shoes and jewelry that she had prepared in advance and carefully dressed herself up. Later, Su Yicheng’s driver came to take her to the hotel.

All in all, it was good to be prepared.

Su Yicheng also walked over to Zhang Mei, who naturally held his hand while saying, “We’re not in the company, and I am now your female companion. Can I call you by your name?”

“Of course.”

Zhang Mei smiled even more happily and contentedly before walking away with Su Yicheng.

Luo Xiaoxi watched their back and was stunned for a long while before she cursed. “How could this be?” She had thought that Zhang Mei would not come that night.

“I have good news for you,” Lu Boyan suddenly said to Luo Xiaoxi.

Luo Xiaoxi was frustrated. “What is it? Can it cure my heart which has been broken by Su Yicheng?”

“I decided to let you debut ahead of schedule,” Lu Boyan said, “but you’ll have to start with the small shows first and practice in the work. You will feel harder than now. Are you willing to accept my arrangement?”

Luo Xiaoxi seemed to come alive again in a moment. She widened her beautiful eyes and asked with disbelief, “You’re not kidding me, right? I really can debut ahead of schedule?”

“You can do it,” Lu Boyan said.

Luo Xiaoxi instantly forgot that she had been abandoned by Su Yicheng. She cheered and ran away. Su Jianan asked her where she was going. Luo Xiaoxi waved her hand and answered, “I am looking for someone to share this good news!” After that, she disappeared.

“Is she looking for your brother?” Lu Boyan asked Su Jianan.

“No.” Su Jianan shook her head. “In this case, she will only go to bother my brother. It should be that Qin Wei is here.”

Su Jianan was right. Luo Xiaoxi indeed went to find Qin Wei.

Qin Wei had seen that Su Yicheng was accompanied by Zhang Mei and thought that Luo Xiaoxi would come to him crying. He did not expect that she would run to him like a little mad girl.

He touched her forehead and asked her, “Are you so sad that you lost your mind?”

“Screw you!” Luo Xiaoxi pushed Qin Wei. “I’ll debut ahead of schedule! You can see me on the catwalk soon!”

“Really?” Qin Wei felt that Su Yicheng’s gaze was on them, so, he hugged Luo Xiaoxi intimately in his arms. “Congratulations. Let’s find a place to celebrate it for you?”

“It’s good to celebrate here.” Luo Xiaoxi took two glasses of champagne and clinked Qin Wei’s glass before continuing, “I hope that I can step on an international stage and be famous!”

Qin Wei smiled and said, “Sure, you will.”
