C37 (1/2)

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.”
