Chapter 370: Chapter 369: Prey (2)
She hated to be outdone by others. Cao Yuezhi said angrily, “Contact the studio and help me do something.”
“Okay, Miss Yuezhi, please go ahead.”
Cao Yuezhi whispered to her assistant, who nodded as she listened.
“Miss Yuezhi, there’s a dinner for the opening ceremony of the film festival tonight. You need to attend,” the assistant reminded her before she went to do something else.
Cao Yuezhi rubbed her temples in annoyance. “Got it.”
Truth was, Cao Yuezhi did not really like this kind of dinner party. She would have to toast and mingle with celebrities.
She had no choice but to act like a worthless performer, wandering around among the rich and powerful. This made her feel disgusted from the bottom of her heart. But she had to attend. For the sake of the new movie, for the sake of her reputation and status.
…
In the backstage celebrity lounge of the film festival.
The female host leaned over and hugged the man’s sturdy shoulders affectionately. She said coquettishly, “Mr. Wang, you have to stand up for me. Otherwise, I’ll never speak to you again.”
Wang Tiancheng sat on the sofa and hugged the woman in his arms. His fat fingers were tightly wrapped around the host’s slender waist. He said dotingly, “Yo, which blind female celebrity dared to bully my baby? Tell me and I’ll stand up for you.”
The female host was secretly proud.
Wang Tiancheng was famous in the circle for his “love of beauty” and his favorite hobby was to hunt women everywhere. Most of the female artists in Wang Entertainment had been on President Wang’s bed. Wang Tiancheng was quite generous with his woman. If he was satisfied with her service, he would generously give her money and resources.
Even though he wasn’t the most handsome man out there, many celebrities still tried their best to form a relationship with him.
“She’s from Song Entertainment. I think her name is Zhao Manshi.” The woman recalled the scene of being humiliated in public and complained in a sweet voice, “I followed your instructions and gave Lu Shanhe’s production team some trouble. Zhao Manshi is just a mere c-list female celebrity, yet she dared to embarrass me in public.”
Wang Tiancheng narrowed his eyes. Zhao Manshi?
It was a rather familiar name.
Wang Tiancheng had a good memory, and he was especially good at memorizing beauties. He quickly recalled that he had met this young lady of the Zhao family at a banquet previously.
She had a fierce personality and a beautiful appearance. She was like a thorny rose that had yet to be picked, which suited his appetite very well.
“Don’t worry, I’ll make the decision for my baby. Come, come and give me a kiss.” Wang Tiancheng smiled and pulled the female host into his arms with his large, fat hands.
The female host pretended to scream and giggled as she moved closer…
The door of the lounge was locked from the inside, and there was a rustling sound.
In the ups and downs, something fell to the ground. The door was shaking, and the sofa was creaking. The strange sound slowly subsided after a long time.
…
“Achoo–”
After the red carpet ended, all the celebrities and celebrities were invited to the dinner party.
Zhao Manshi hid in a corner to eat and suddenly sneezed.
“Did you catch a cold?” Gu Manxi asked gently. She looked up and down at the thin evening gown on Zhao Manshi’s body and frowned slightly. “It’s cold at night. I asked you to put on a coat just now, but you didn’t listen.”
Zhao Manshi giggled. “I don’t like to wear a down jacket. It’s too thick.”
It was winter, and the night was cold. The female celebrities attending the dinner party were all dressed gorgeously, exposing their arms and legs. It was very easy for them to get sick. Lu Shanhe was afraid that Gu Manxi and the others would be cold, so he specially brought a few long down jackets.
Gu Manxi put on the jacket to cover her arms and legs. But Zhao Manshi did not like this ugly jacket and refused to wear it.
She suffered the consequences and sneezed a few times.
“Wait here for a while. I’ll go to the lounge to get you a coat.” Gu Manxi felt sorry for her sister and gave her a few words of advice before quickly returning to the lounge.
The corner of Zhao Manshi’s mouth curled up. She thought to herself, my sister really cares about me.
As expected of my biological sister.
In order to not let down my sister’s good intentions, I’ll force myself to wear that ugly down jacket later. Zhao Manshi really liked this feeling of being cared for. Since she was young, although she was doted on by her parents, her mother seemed to only be interested in dressing her up as a beautiful doll for the public to see.
Her eldest brother, Zhao Yan, had a distant relationship with his family and rarely interacted with his younger sister.
Now that she had met Gu Manxi, Zhao Manshi deeply experienced the happiness of having an “older sister”. Gu Manxi cared for her without any distracting thoughts, just like all the older sisters in the world, caring for her younger sister.
Zhao Manshi covered her face and chuckled.
Zhao Manshi did not notice that a tall figure was slowly approaching her. It was like a cheetah that had its eyes on its prey, silently approaching and dividing this area into its own territory. All the women in the territory were its prey.
Wang Tiancheng, the CEO of Wang Entertainment Media, walked over.
He narrowed his eyes and peered at the young woman in front of him, who had exquisite makeup and a revealing gown.
Today, Zhao Manshi was wearing a petite strapless dress. It openly revealed her round and fair shoulders. The dress was quite short, and her slender snow-white legs were unmistakably exposed. Her wavy long hair was gently tied with a headband, and her long hair fell from her shoulders to her chest.
Zhao Manshi was originally beautiful and resembled Gu Manxi. Today, her beauty was suppressed by her sister on the red carpet, so no one noticed that she was actually quite beautiful. Especially now, in a dim corner, Zhao Manshi looked delicate and pretty. Her fingertips were holding a glass of champagne, and she was leaning gently against the long table. Her beautiful figure was all Wang Taincheng could see.
Wang Tiancheng sighed inwardly. She was really beautiful.
That kind of beauty belonged to “youth”. She was completely different from the female celebrities in the industry who wore heavy makeup. Zhao Manshi had the beauty of youth. It was also the trait that Wang Tiancheng, a middle-aged man in his forties, was most obsessed with.
“Beautiful…” Wang Tiancheng muttered. As he got older, he liked these fresh and youthful beauties more and more.
Wang Tiancheng coughed lightly and walked over. “Miss Zhao, long time no see.”
Zhao Manshi turned her head slightly and saw Wang Tiancheng in a suit and tie.
Zhao Manshi clicked her tongue. “Oh, isn’t this the CEO of the Wang Corporation? A noble like you should be on the central dance floor. What are you doing in this dark corner?”
Zhao Manshi did not like Wang Tiancheng. He was dressed neatly, but his pitch-black eyes were a little scary.
They were greasy and disgusting.
“We can talk about business anytime, but beauties are rare to find.” Wang Tiancheng leaned over. He was tall and looked down at the petite beauty. His gaze fell on Zhao Manshi’s exquisite collarbone. “Look at the way you’re dressed. Are you trying to seduce a man?”
Zhao Manshi was stunned.
A chill spread from her heels to her neck. Her body trembled slightly and she quickly moved away from Wang Tiancheng.
It was rumored in the industry that Wang Tiancheng liked women. He was indeed hooligan trash!
Zhao Manshi covered her chest and said angrily, “What I wear is none of your business. As for you, you’re so ugly. I bet you won’t get any kids with that face of yours.”
