The CEO’s Substitute Wife Is A Genius
Chapter 197: Big Shots Gathering! All for Jiang Man?

Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Big Shots Gathering! All for Jiang Man?

The female celebrity was infuriated.

Her national popularity was extremely high.

How could there be someone who didn’t know who she was, what her name was?

Even people who never chased celebrities would watch TV dramas, wouldn’t they?

The several ancient-style idol dramas she had starred in were very popular, and she considered herself a top figure in the entertainment industry now.

"Sis, let’s get ready; it’s our turn to go on."

The assistant approached in a timely manner, bending over and offering support in an extremely obsequious way.

The female celebrity snorted coldly and didn’t forget to greet JOJO before she left.

"Alright, everyone disperse, I need to touch up my makeup," JOJO said with an air of indifference.

After ordering someone to close the car door, she called Jiang Man.

"Sister, how are you going to deal with that female celebrity who provoked you just now?"

JOJO was itching to act, her voice filled with excitement.

Jiang Man glanced at Wen Rui, the young girl was very nervous, holding a tablet and watching the red carpet live stream.

Whether it was due to nervousness or not, her hand was continuously clenched around a tissue.

"Coming toward us now is the creative team of ’Wasted Times’."

The moment the host finished introducing, the audience at the scene started screaming wildly.

"Chengzhou! Chengzhou! Mommy loves you!"

A group of mom fans shouted.

If you listened carefully, you could hear other names amid the cheering.

"Yingying, our unique swan (hungry)!"

The ’er’ sounded with a Taiwanese accent.

"Her name is Zhou Ying," Wen Rui said, lifting her head.

Her car was fitted with privacy film, so people outside couldn’t see clearly inside, but from inside the car, she could see everything outside perfectly.

"Did you hear that? She’s called Zhou Ying," Jiang Man said indifferently to JOJO on the phone, her voice unfluctuating.

But JOJO got even more excited: "How do we do it, how do we do it?"

"JO Bao, I find that you’re really quite sinister," Jiang Man said, amused by her anxious behavior.

However, JOJO laughed heartily: "An evil person will be grinded by another, right? Can you ban her in the fashion industry? Make it so she can’t wear couture anymore; that would be interesting! Who asked her to mock you, our beloved Mo An hadn’t provoked anyone."

"It’s a matter of a few words," Jiang Man said before hanging up the phone, planning to call Caesar.

After some thought, she decided not to disturb Caesar with such a trivial matter, so she looked for He Hua’s contact in the LV work group and dialed the number.

He Hua was already at the venue. This year’s V Awards red carpet, LV’s trump card was a respected veteran.

Of course, many other celebrities were also wearing LV.

Her job was to capture as many stunning moments of these female stars as possible, market them like crazy, and vie for attention for LV.

Therefore, she had to supervise on-site and dared not slack off.

The respected veteran had been scheduled to be the finale, but being modest, she didn’t care about the order of appearance and gave the chance to the younger generation.

So, she was arranged to be the third-to-last to appear.

He Hua occasionally glanced at the photographer’s camera, paying attention to the breathtaking moments of the female celebrities captured under the lens.

How to put it, they were beautiful, but when everyone was beautiful, it didn’t seem so extraordinary.

While she was busy, she received a call from Jiang Man, and she was pleasantly surprised.

"Mo.....Miss Jiang, what can I do for you?"

"You know Zhou Ying, right? Ban her from the fashion world."

"Ah?" He Hua was suddenly stunned, feeling a bit out of her depth.

Why would Miss Jiang have a feud with Zhou Ying?

Zhou Ying was a rising starlet in recent years, with extraordinary fashion resources.

Why would a renowned designer waste time on such an insignificant figure?

Though perplexed, since it was Master Mo An’s command, she acted without hesitation.

After hanging up with Jiang Man, she immediately called the president’s office to have them quickly implement the ban on Zhou Ying.

No sooner had she given the instructions than another call came in.

When she saw Caesar’s name prominently displayed on her phone, He Hua was so excited that she nearly hit the wrong button.

"Caesar..."

"Today’s LV front-page headline needs to be changed," the voice on the phone said deeply, with an authoritative command.

"Change? Wasn’t it supposed to be the respected veteran?" He Hua was surprised.

The respected veteran’s status was not lower than JOJO’s; although they were in different fields, they were both considered equally distinguished.

"Change it, for someone named Wen Rui. I’ll send you the details later."

"Okay..." He Hua didn’t dare to object.

After the call ended, an email immediately popped up in her inbox.

Upon opening it, she could hardly believe her eyes.

Wen Rui, a no-name singer from the eighteenth line? Not even that well-known, having just debuted not long ago.

Had Caesar lost his mind? Why would he suddenly order all the resources be given to this person?

[Mo An’s new design will descend abruptly, catching a certain household completely off-guard.]

The last line of the email left He Hua dumbfounded.

Mo An...designing clothes for a nobody like Wen Rui?

This made no sense!

...

At this time inside the venue, many audience members took their seats one after another.

Yi Sha, along with Lady Ming, Ming Ran and the others, took their seats in the 12th row of the VIP section.

The first 10 rows were occupied by celebrities.

Of course, the first row was reserved for the sponsors.

After Ming Ran took her seat, she took out her phone to send a message to Ming Xiang.

Ming Ran: "We’re here, looking forward to your performance."

Ming Xiang: "Mwah to my dear sister, you’re not here to see the stars, you came specially for me."

Ming Ran: "Of course, my mom is also here, she’s not into chasing stars, if not to see you, then who?"

Ming Xiang: "Aaah, I’m so in love with Great-aunt! I’ve got to go get my makeup done."

Ming Ran: "Mhm, go ahead, you’re busy."

After their chat, Ming Ran looked around.

The big screen was broadcasting the red carpet event outside, but she had no interest in it.

"Ranran, look, is that Nan Juefeng?"

Madame Ming brought over a mini telescopic lens.

She came today partly to support her niece and partly hoping to get the chance to meet Nan Juefeng.

It was said that he was one of the sponsors for the V Blog Night event.

"It’s him." Ming Ran glanced once at the man in the front row dressed in a snappy suit, wearing a gray iridescent suit that was impeccably handsome. His demeanor did not lose to the male star next to him who was greeting people.

In fact, his domineering business aura was even stronger, his elegant nobility stood out in the crowd, making him unforgettable at first sight.

Ming Ran only took one look before turning her gaze away.

She was self-aware that such a high-quality man was out of her reach; he wouldn’t spare her a glance.

Besides, her heart was filled with Lu Zhendong at the moment, and she had no spare thoughts to pay attention to other men.

"Go on, go over and greet him."

Madame Ming nudged her daughter.

Seeing her unmoved, she raised her voice: "Go on, it’s just a greeting, I’m not asking you to do anything else!"

Yi Sha’s eyes lit up at the sight of a tall, rich, and handsome man.

She enthusiastically stood up, warmly taking Ming Ran’s arm: "Madame, I’ll accompany Miss Ming over."

"Let’s go, a greeting is just common social courtesy," Yi Sha persuasively whispered in Ming Ran’s ear.

Ming Ran nodded and finally perked up with a heightened spirit.

By this time, Nan Juefeng had already been surrounded by a throng of stars and escorted to his seat.

His seat was arranged to the left and Lu Xingzhou’s to the right, with the aisle in between.

Behind Lu Xingzhou’s seat was JOJO, and next to it was Jiang Man’s name tag.

Just the sight of the name tag made Nan Juefeng’s heart ache, and after taking his seat, his peripheral vision couldn’t help but steal glances towards the back.

"President Nan..."

It was not until a soft voice entered his ears that he looked over.

Nan Juefeng’s gaze shifted onto Ming Ran.

"Miss Ming." He nodded slightly but did not stand up.

Ming Ran smiled gracefully: "I didn’t expect you to attend such an event."

It was rumored that Nan Juefeng was extremely low-key and rarely showed his face in public.

At an event like V Blog Night, with audiences and media gathering, it seemed out of character for him to appear.

Hearing this, Nan Juefeng hooked the corner of his mouth: "I’m here to show support for a friend."

His simple statement took Ming Ran by surprise.

"President Nan’s friend is really lucky to have such a loyal friend like you," Yi Sha spoke up in time, attempting to catch Nan Juefeng’s attention.

But Nan Juefeng only gave her a fleeting glance, his attention quickly shifting away.

He had no interest in knowing who she was or in learning about her.

Yi Sha, oblivious to Nan Juefeng’s indifference, thought that all mighty CEOs were so lofty.

She quickly fished out her business card, presenting it with both hands: "President Nan, my name is Yi Sha, I am..."

Before she could finish, Shen Yu interrupted her, taking the business card away: "Sorry, our president prefers quiet."

The implication was that the two of them were too noisy.

Yi Sha’s face turned from white to green in an instant, as if she had stepped onto a painter’s palette.

Ming Ran was used to such odd behaviors.

There were many rumors about Nan Juefeng, and in them, he was always portrayed as a strange and aloof person.

Despite his wealth, he apparently lacked any female companionship.

The reason, unbelievably, was that he had an unattainable love; for this unattainable love, he had remained chaste for 15 years, staying single until he could find her.

Upon hearing about such a paragon of pure love, Ming Ran could only shake her head in disbelief, doubting the existence of such an exceptional good man in the world.

"Yi Sha, let’s go back to our seats," said Ming Ran after completing the greeting, looking as if she had finished a task, and began to pull Yi Sha away.

At that moment, however, there was a commotion at the emergency exit.

A throng of bodyguards were escorting someone in.

The man sported a sleek back hairdo tied into a ponytail, his hair dyed white, dressed in a black tailcoat, and wearing a pair of black sunglasses.

The sunglasses concealed his eyes, making it hard to discern his exact appearance.

But even the outline of his figure allowed Yi Sha to recognize who this person was instantly!

My goodness! The Caesar of the LV Group?

What’s he doing here???

Caesar only attended LV’s haute couture show each year.

Even at the Paris, Milan, Tokyo, and New York fashion weeks, he would occasionally be absent.

Other international fashion shows were even more out of the question, only attending at his whim.

To Caesar, V Blog Night was a trivial event, having someone like He Hua, the CEO for the Greater China area, attend was more than sufficient.

Caesar’s appearance immediately caused a stir inside the venue.

His presence was even more shocking than that of a sponsor like Nan Juefeng, unbelievably surprising!

The V Blog staff was flustered and overwhelmed by this unexpected honor.

The seats had been arranged beforehand, and someone of Caesar’s stature was supposed to sit in the front row.

But the only spot left in the front row was on the very edge.

The other seats were taken by sponsors; it seemed inappropriate to ask them to move.

Caesar, escorted by a cluster of people, scanned the seating area.

"Where’s Jiang Man sitting? I’ll sit next to her."

At the mention of Jiang Man’s name, everyone was stunned into silence.
