Chapter 1875 - Huo Ze and Xia Tang (79)
Chapter 1875: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (79)
Xia Cha looked at her manager, Sister Jin, and shook her head, “Not yet, but I plan to buy one at the mall.”
“You don’t have to buy one anymore,” Sister Jin said, pulling out a delicate bag from under her desk.
“This is the gown the company prepared for you. Wear this on the day of the annual party.” Sister Jin looked at Xia Cha. Her slender eyebrows, exquisite lips and nose, as well as her fair and classic oval face, were exactly like the Xia Tang’s.
No wonder the Third Master asked her to give this expensive gown to Xia Cha.
Sister Jin was Star King’s top manager. When Third Master arranged for her to take care of a young girl, she was unwilling to do so. She felt that the little girl was only favored by Third Master because she resembled Xia Tang.
However, after interacting with her, she realized that the little girl was not what she had imagined.
She was very talented and could compose her songs. Her voice was also very ethereal and moving.
After interacting with her for a long time, she had gotten attracted to her.
Sister Jin felt that her achievements in the future might even surpass Xia Tang’s.
Xia Cha opened the bag and took out a box.
There was a luxurious and resplendent gown decorated with diamonds in the box.
Xia Cha was a little surprised, “Sister Jin, this was designed by the world’s top designer, YG I think it’s priceless—”
Sister Jin nodded. “The company values you, that’s why they gave you this gown. I hope your performance in the future will not disappoint the company.”
Xia Cha nodded thoughtfully.
After leaving Sister Jin’s office, Xia Cha was a little thirsty. She walked towards the pantry in the office area.
When she walked to the entrance of the pantry, she saw Xia Furong and a other popular few celebrities there.
Xia Cha didn’t want to meet Xia Furong and was planning to leave. However, one of the celebrities’ words caught her attention. “Furong, you have a good relationship with Bai Tong. Did Third Master give her that dress?”
It had been a while since Xia Furong talked to Bai Tong. Ever since her face was injured by Cheng Hao, Bai Tong had ignored her every time she contacted the latter.
Bai Tong was now the number one star of Star King Entertainment. Xia Furong didn’t dare to offend her. Although Bai Tong treated her coldly, Xia Furong still tried her best to curry favor with her.
In front of other celebrities, she naturally had to act like she was close to Bai Tong. “Of course. The Third Master personally invited over to create a stunning gown for the future lady boss. Other than Sister Bai Tong, who else in the company is worthy of that gown?”
Xia Cha frowned slightly.
She did not expect the Third Master to personally invite YG over.
Everyone in the industry knew that YG was very difficult to hire. He only served the royal family.
Such an expensive gown had fallen into her hands.
“I think Third Master has been praising Xia Cha recently. Could it be that Third Master gave her the YG gown…”
Before the celebrity could finish her words, Xia Furong interrupted her angrily.
“How is that possible? Third Master is not blind. Why would he give it to Xia Cha? Only Bai Tong is worthy of Third Master. Xia Cha is just a country bumpkin. She is not worthy of being popular.”
Although the other celebrities did not know Xia Cha, they were jealous of her. As soon as Xia Cha entered the company, she was assigned a top manager and had even released a single in a short time. How could they not be jealous?
As soon as Xia Furong belittled Xia Cha, all of them laughed. The expression in their eyes was as if Xia Cha was very cheap.
“I’ll talk to you later. I need to go to the bathroom first.”
Xia Cha heard Xia Furong’s words and went to the washroom first.
Xia Cha placed the bag in her hand on the sink.
She went to the utility room where the mop was kept in the bathroom and stood behind the door.
She was slender and it was difficult for anyone who entered the washroom to notice that someone was standing in the storeroom.
After a while, Xia Furong came over.
Xia Furong immediately saw the bag on the sink.
The bag was rather exquisite and one could tell at a glance that the items inside were expensive.
Xia Furong entered the washroom cubicle with doubts.
When she came out of the cubicle and washed her hands, she saw that the bag was still there. She looked around again.
There was no one else in the washroom.
Xia Furong wiped her hands clean and opened the bag.
When she saw a box, she took it out again.
Seeing the luxurious gown in the box, Xia Furong widened her eyes.
Wasn’t this designed by YG?
Why was it in the washroom?
“Is anyone here?” Xia Furong shouted.
Seeing that no one was around, Xia Furong quickly took out the gown and placed the empty box into the bag.
Since Third Master wanted to give it to Bai Tong, she might as well give it to him in advance.
Xia Furong took the gown and left quickly.
Xia Cha stood in the cubicle for a while before walking out.
Carrying the bag, she walked out of the washroom unhurriedly.
…
Soon, it was Star King Entertainment’s annual gala.
Sister Jin went to Xia Cha’s apartment to pick her up. She frowned when she saw Xia Cha coming out in a light blue gown. “Didn’t the company give you a gown? Why are you wearing this?”
“Sister Jin, when I was about to take the gown out of the box this afternoon, I realized that it was missing.” Xia Cha frowned. “I had to rush to the mall to buy one.”
Sister Jin was surprised. “The gown is missing?”
Xia Cha nodded and said, “That day when I left the company with the gown, I was busy with my studies and work, so I didn’t check the bag. I didn’t expect it to disappear today.”
“When I left your office that day, I only went to the washroom. I think someone took the gown away while I was in the washroom.”
Sister Jin’s expression changed.
Ridiculous! How dare someone steal a gown from the company!
“Forget it. Let’s get in the car and go to the castle first.” If anyone were to wear that gown to the castle tonight, they would be thieves.
…
It was Star King Entertainment’s annual gala, and it was an extravagant affair. There was a long red carpet in front of the hotel, and fans of various celebrities stood on both sides of the cordons.
The ones with the most cheers were Bai Tong and a few Best Actors.
It was Xia Cha’s first time walking the red carpet. Sister Jin was worried that she would not be used to it. In the end, Xia Cha was unexpectedly stable and calm.
She could handle the cameras and fans’ shouts easily.
After signing and taking photos, Xia Cha walked into the banquet hall.
There was no media in the banquet hall. The buffet table was filled with various delicacies.
All the celebrities present were dressed to the nines and were dazzling, competing for attention.
Compared to those celebrities who wore gorgeous or sexy clothes, Xia Cha’s evening gown looked rather modest and low-key.
However, she was young, beautiful, and had an aura of independence. The moment she entered, she attracted a lot of attention.
Xia Furong was one of them.
Xia Furong was standing together with a few other celebrities. When she saw Xia Cha come in without any jewelry or a gorgeous gown, she carried the wine and walked up to Xia Cha, ridiculing her, “Oh my god, you actually came here in such a trashy gown. You’re really embarrassing Star King!”
