The reporter’s jaw dropped. “Then…”
Qin Zhou immediately stepped in and said sternly, “As per the original statement on the invitation, our artist is going to apologize publicly for this incident. Please don’t confuse the masses!”
Thereafter, he held and escorted his charge to the reception area, leaving the reporters gawking behind them.
The bodyguards got all the media personnel back to the press box. Meanwhile, the cameraman turned on the equipment and started the official live telecast of the event on all livestream platforms.
Huanyu’s top executives also took their seats one after another, while Yun Shishi and Qin Zhou sat close to Ji Yan at the centerstage.
At a distance not far from her, the actress’s rival had been measuring her with unblinking eyes as she walked up the stage.
Yun Shishi, in a white chiffon blouse and black three-quarter pants, which greatly complemented her long and slender legs, looked elegant and proper.
Her celebrity style was clean-cut, simple, and modest, very much reflecting her namesake, whereas her rival was loud and gaudy in her outfit.
The protagonist looked calm and composed.
She looked up slightly after she had taken her seat, displaying a clear, strong, and even aloof visage, much like a plum blossom in winter. She had an arrogant temperament, which allowed no profanity. Sitting next to her was Ji Yan, and despite her rival’s exquisite features, the latter’s presence could not hold a candle to her. Her rival kept sneaking a look at her when the gaze suddenly fell on her slender fingers.
There was a big diamond ring on it, which she had never seen before.
Since she started filming the new show, Yun Shishi had always taken the ring off in advance and kept it aside for safety reasons. Therefore, this was the first time Ji Yan had seen the ring.
Is she engaged?
Feeling quite unsure, she scanned the other’s profile again and started to feel uneasy when she saw how calm and collected the lady was.
Instantly, she realized that she should not have come here tonight!
The actress seemed to notice her opponent checking her out and reciprocated without warning. Ji Yan was startled but turned her head away with forced composure almost immediately when she heard the other whispering, “If you are starting to get fearful, it’s still not too late for you to express your regret now.”
“What!” She burst into a bout of angry laughter. “What am I afraid of, and what is there to regret?”
“Okay, then. We’ll see.”
The press conference finally commenced.
After the order was maintained and the hall went quiet, those sitting onstage finally turned on the microphones.
The first to speak was Qin Zhou. He delivered a simple speech, nothing more than to thank the various media for taking the time to attend the launch and those fans camping outside the venue for their patience and interest. After that, he invited Ji Lin, the Huanyu’s head producer, to deliver a speech.
“Some time ago, there were some people who published inaccurate information about our artist, Ms. Yun Shishi, on the Internet, particularly on Weibo and Tieba. This had not only caused great distress to the public but, even more so, unbearable damage to our artist’s reputation. First of all, as the head producer of Huanyu, I would like to announce solemnly that the implication of Ms. Yun in the romance between Ms. Ji Yan and Mr. Gao Nan is untrue.”
Almost instantly, there was an uproar below the stage.
The atmosphere turned agitated, with doubts written all over everyone’s face.
