Chapter 301: Chapter 296: Cocktail Party Chapter 301: Chapter 296: Cocktail Party “She refused? Why?”

In the president’s office of Chenfeng Media, Mu Jincheng looked astonishedly at his assistant, uttering words of surprise.

The assistant adjusted his glasses and said, “Shen Yan’s agent has already called to decline the advertisement.”

In fact, this advertisement wasn’t Chenfeng Media’s, but the Mu Family’s.

However, Mu Jincheng was also responsible for this area and knew that Shen Yan was coming to shoot this commercial, so he had been waiting.

But what he ended up waiting for was Shen Yan’s refusal to do their Mu Family’s advertisement.

Mu Jincheng’s face momentarily turned ugly.

“Did she not give any reasons?”

“None.”

Deep down, Mu Jincheng understood why Shen Yan would refuse.

But he still couldn’t accept it.

“President Mu,” there was a knock on the office door.

Mu Jincheng saw the dazzlingly dressed Shi Lian, waving his hand to dismiss the assistant.

He was planning to take Shi Lian to attend the Mu Family’s cocktail party tonight.

After meeting with the person responsible from the Bai Family yesterday, Mu Jincheng was directly and mercilessly rejected.

It was undoubtedly a slap in Mu Jincheng’s face.

The Bai Family would also be attending tonight’s cocktail party.

So, he wanted to take this opportunity to persuade the Bai Family again.

Shi Lian’s acting skills were certainly no less than Shen Yan’s, and her physical appearance was also on par.

Moreover, having been immersed in the entertainment industry for a longer period, Shi Lian was much more stable than Shen Yan.

The Bai Family had no reason to refuse Shi Lian.

Shi Lian felt that Mu Jincheng was wasting time and energy.

Shen Yan and Li Xu represented Xinyu at this cocktail party.

The conservative dress Liu Su had specially chosen for Shen Yan suited the gathering of entertainment figures and business personnel at the event, which was essentially a networking banquet.

After joining Xinyu, the opportunities for Shen Yan to attend such banquets were so few they could be counted on one hand.

At the venue entrance, there was a stretch of red carpet.

Lined on both sides were escort cars, with security personnel present.

Beyond the barriers that were set up, the media’s cameras clicked incessantly in rapid-fire succession!

The flash photography could blind someone’s eyes.

Watching the female celebrities vying for attention at the entrance, the media quickly captured their every move, trying to find some fodder for laughter or unusual behavior to magnify and spawn a series of hot stories.

When they saw a female star entering arm-in-arm with a wealthy businessman, they quickly pressed forward to snap pictures and greeted them.

A top female star, not seen for a while, who had subtly tweaked her face, also became the target of the media’s relentless 360-degree, no-blind-spot photography.

Capturing even the slightest flaw, the headlines on tomorrow’s front page would surely read something like “So-and-So Female Star’s Botched Plastic Surgery.”

What was a business and entertainment industry cocktail party was treated like a star-studded gala.

Shen Yan didn’t want to walk down that stretch of the red carpet, and glancing sideways at the sharply handsome Li Xu, when a flash of light came their way, both raised their smiles to just the right degree.

Today, Shen Yan was dressed in a white evening gown, her elegant and noble air making even the bright sequins adorning it seem dim, the fabric with its fine lustrous sheen shone brilliantly under the lights!

Her pale, flawless swan neck was adorned with a pale rose-colored gemstone necklace, which made her skin appear even more translucent and radiant!

The media up front immediately noticed the stunningly radiant Shen Yan, their eyes lighting up instantly.

Chu Jinghe, who was standing in front of the red carpet and was just about to fuss with her dress, saw the media, which had previously not stopped snapping pictures of her, suddenly turn directions, excitedly capturing the scene behind her.

Chu Jinghe stiffly turned to look and saw the breathtaking figure under the flashes of light; her smile nearly faltered.

Shen Yan’s hair was simply styled, secured at the back of her head with a golden hairpin, with a lock of black hair falling at her neck adding a touch of beauty.

On her feet were milky white shoes embellished with tiny diamonds, the dress of medium length with elegant lace edges and pleats that cinched her slender waist.

On her slender wrist, she wore a gold bracelet inlaid with green gemstones!

The gemstone on her neck was the “Angel” necklace from the recent auction, which was snapped up for the lofty price of ninety million.

The pair of shoes she wore were handcrafted, and the diamonds inlaid on the surface were genuine!

Even just scratching off a little bit could sell for a high price, enough for an ordinary family to live well for several years.

Yanyan had no idea how much the shoes and necklace cost.

She only knew that the dress she wore was really soft, and it was likely handwoven, then handmade into a dress.

Yanyan looped her arm through Li Xu’s and walked together towards the short stretch of red carpet, greeting the people ahead.

“Click! Click!”

This was Yanyan, after all!

The degree to which Yanyan had recently exploded in popularity had surprised everyone in the industry!

Who would have thought that Yanyan, who everyone assumed would meet her demise in the entertainment world, would skyrocket to fame?

“Yanyan, I heard you’re preparing to take on a new film role, can you reveal any details?”

“Yanyan, are you and Su Huai dating? The internet is all abuzz with your shipping! We’re very curious.”

“Yanyan…”

“My next film role hasn’t been decided yet, and Teacher Su and I are not girlfriend and boyfriend, as you’ve pointed out, it’s just an internet ship. Everyone enjoys shipping pairs, and I don’t mind being shipped with anyone!” Yanyan replied to the media’s questions with playful laughter.

“Today’s event is a regular banquet, not a press conference, so let’s save these questions for the next press conference, okay?” Liu Su stepped up with a smile, fending off the media for Yanyan.

Next press conference?

Had Yanyan ever attended one?

Did they take them for fools?

Everyone wanted to write a great story and get their hands on exclusive information.

At this moment, Li Xu stepped forward with a smile, jokingly asking everyone why they weren’t asking him questions; he was very much looking forward to it!

The media’s cameras and mics instantly turned towards Li Xu, successfully shifting everyone’s attention away.

Yanyan pulled her arm away and turned to head towards the entrance of the banquet.

Chu Jinghe turned her head just in time to see Li Xu, who had stepped in front of the cameras to shield Yanyan, smiling charmingly at the lens, and she frowned.

Each one of them protected Yanyan.

It was as if they were all under Yanyan’s spell.

Yanyan spotted Chu Jinghe up ahead, and without any cameras around, she didn’t even greet her.

She simply walked past Chu Jinghe’s side.

Chu Jinghe’s face darkened.

Just as she was about to call out to Yanyan, she looked up to see Mu Jincheng coming out to greet them, and her eyes lit up!

Mu Jincheng looked especially handsome and charming today!

He was breathtakingly handsome!

The next second, Chu Jinghe’s smile froze on her face, then in a flash, she clenched her fists and walked over with a sweet voice calling out, “Jinchen!”

Yanyan walked past Mu Jincheng, heading straight for the center of the banquet.

Mu Jincheng snapped back to reality when Chu Jinghe called him out!

But his gaze couldn’t help but follow the stunning figure that had just passed.

“Jinchen,” Chu Jinghe’s voice trembled slightly.

Mu Jincheng’s attention was once again pulled away by Yanyan, intensifying Chu Jinghe’s sense of crisis!

“Yanyan!”

Xie Xuan, holding a glass of wine, turned and nodded slightly towards Yanyan.

Surprised to see Xie Xuan and Wen Yan there, Yanyan approached them.

“Yanyan! You’re here too!” Wen Yan swallowed a sip of champagne, looking Yanyan up and down in astonishment, and exclaimed, “You look really beautiful today!”

“Thank you.”

“Yanyan,” Liu Su followed up, speaking softly, “Several Qi Family executives are here, would you like to go over and say hello?”

Qi Family executives?

Yanyan followed Liu Su’s gaze to see several men in suits talking together, some older, some middle-aged, and some young…

Yanyan caught a glimpse of one of the young men giving Li Xu a secret signal, and her black eyes narrowed slightly.
