Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Lu Xingzhou Exposes Her Online Alias

"Don’t cry, the dress you’re wearing is very beautiful, it doesn’t matter if you don’t change."

Lu Zhan’s voice of comfort was mixed in from the side.

With that comfort, Wen Rui became even sadder, "The dress my cousin worked so hard to make for me, such a beautiful dress that no one will get a chance to see, it’s really such a pity."

"It is a pity, but there’s nothing that can be done about it. Don’t worry, I will definitely catch the culprit for you! I will have someone check the surveillance right now!"

"Don’t rush, you two." Jiang Man frowned deeply, and her voice suddenly turned cold, "I’ll come to find you, wait for me."

"What happened?" Lu Xingzhou and Nan Juefeng in the front row both heard her voice.

Jiang Man glanced at Lu Xingzhou, "Come with me."

Lu Xingzhou was the biggest sponsor of this event, whatever he wanted to do could be done with just one word from him.

Seeing the two leave quickly side by side, Nan Juefeng frowned and called Shen Yu over, "Follow them and see what’s going on."

"Yes, President."

The backstage rest area suddenly bustled, the news that Wen Rui’s evening gown had been slashed spread quickly.

When Jiang Man and Lu Xingzhou arrived, Wen Rui was sitting on the sofa, already having cried her eyes out.

She was holding the slashed gown in her arms, looking utterly pitiful.

Lu Zhan stood by her side, wanting to give her a hug, but due to the occasion and his status, he had to hold back.

He gently patted her shoulder, soothing her with a soft voice.

"Your cousin is here," he said in a gentle voice.

Upon hearing this, Wen Rui looked up to see that it was indeed Jiang Man; she rushed over with the tattered dress.

"Wuwuwu... cousin..." she cried sadly, sobbing uncontrollably.

Jiang Man touched her head, "It’s okay, I’m here."

She was very calm, her tone unfluctuating, "Don’t cry for now, let me see what the dress looks like."

"Mhmm," Wen Rui nodded softly and mushily, pushing the dress that looked like a mop forward.

As Jiang Man took it in her hands, she realized that the dress had been cut to shreds, impossible to restore.

Lu Xingzhou came up behind her, and upon seeing the situation, his temper flared, "Did you design this dress too?"

"Mhmm," Jiang Man responded.

"Someone go, check the surveillance!" Without another word, Lu Xingzhou ordered sharply.

The person in charge arrived quickly and personally led a team to the surveillance room.

...

"Did you guys hear? A female singer’s evening gown was slashed to ribbons, what kind of grudge could this be about?"

"Wasn’t it Wen Rui, the singer who dazzled everyone just now? She’s a new artist, and it was her first time on the red carpet making such an impression. Probably someone with jealousy targeted her."

"Was that dress expensive? How much money will the singer have to pay if they can’t catch the culprit?"

"Luckily, it was designed by an unknown designer. If it were a famous designer, it would be hard to say. As far as I know, chief designers under LV like Mo An, Lawrence, Anna, just for designing a set of clothes, demand tens of millions."

"My god? Tens of millions? Even if they sold the singer, she could not afford that."

"Exactly, so luckily the singer hired an unknown designer. With her status and wealth, she couldn’t have afforded a renowned designer to make her clothes anyway."

"I think those famous designers’ designs are nothing special. The dress designed by this unknown designer is even more beautiful. After today, this unknown designer is going to become famous."

"True, fame can come in an instant."

"Manman, do you want to go take a look? Jiang Man and Lu Xingzhou are there."

Ming Xiang had gone to join the crowd and returned, out of breath.

Jiang Man was doing leg stretches, loosening up her limbs.

She reacted indifferently after listening, "I think I’ll pass on joining the crowd, it’s none of my business."

"Don’t you want to see what the fake Jiang Man who’s impersonating you looks like?"

"I want to know, but let’s wait for another time. Didn’t the band leader tell us to warm up first? After all, today’s performance is quite important."

"Ah, it won’t take long."

Jiang Man simply couldn’t withstand Ming Xiang’s relentless persuasion and was dragged by the hand, trotting all the way to the celebrity rest area.

There were quite a few onlookers, gathered in a bunch; there was simply no way to get close to Wen Rui’s makeover room, which was surrounded and packed tight.

"Hey, isn’t that the beautiful sister from before?" Ming Xiang, with her sharp eyes, spotted Shen Yu in the crowded throng at first glance.

As Jiang Man followed her gaze and saw Shen Yu, her heart immediately started to flutter chaotically.

Before she had met Nan Juefeng, she indeed had a little interest in Lu Xingzhou.

But after meeting him, she felt that no one could compare to him.

She was thinking about what she could possibly do to get close to Nan Juefeng.

"Oh my, you can’t see a thing, there are too many people!" Ming Xiang couldn’t help but complain.

Jiang Man let the surging crowd push her around, jostling her from side to side.

...

Inside the makeover room, Wen Rui had already been soothed.

Jiang Man hated the noisy and clamorous sounds, finding them annoying.

She glanced at Lu Xingzhou: "Disperse the onlookers, I need to make a new outfit for Ruirui."

As soon as she said this, everyone present was shocked, their eyes widening.

"Now... to make it?" Lu Zhan stammered in surprise.

Jiang Man stood with her hands in her pockets, her expression cool and haughty.

She raised her wrist to check her watch: "There’s half an hour until the official award ceremony starts, enough time."

"Half an hour is enough?" Lu Zhan couldn’t help but say.

Jiang Man’s expression remained unchanged, her calm demeanor silencing any further objections.

"Scissors, tape measure, sewing machine, get these items ready quickly."

"Someone!" Lu Xingzhou didn’t dawdle at all, calling Zhao Huai in.

Zhao Huai received the instruction and went out to find the items.

At that moment, Shen Yu stepped forward: "A tape measure, needles and thread, a small sewing machine, and a few other miscellaneous items."

It was a common occurrence for stars to have their clothes altered backstage, as sometimes the haute couture was borrowed and didn’t fit properly.

Some even borrowed their gowns on the day of the event and had to make last-minute adjustments in the backstage rest area.

The production team, considering every detail, had already prepared these necessary tools in advance.

After learning the situation, Shen Yu had immediately asked the production team for these items, just in case they were needed.

Unexpectedly, this serendipitous effort turned out to be of actual use.

"Thank you." Jiang Man took the items and glanced at Shen Yu.

Shen Yu smiled, a somewhat unnatural smile: "You’re welcome."

She did all this for Boss Nan.

If Boss Nan was happy, then she was happy too.

"Alright, you all go out, too many people affect my performance."

Jiang Man said coldly, a trace of irritability between her brows.

Looking at Lu Xingzhou, her gaze focused: "Leave the monitoring to you."

"Don’t worry."

Lu Xingzhou’s ability to execute was strong, swiftly dispersing the crowd of onlookers.

Zhao Huai followed behind him, step by step: "BOSS, Wen Rui is about to go on stage to endorse the new car by the Lu family, should she still wear the set she has on?"

He was worried that a dress made on the spot might be subpar and affect the advertising effect, which he wouldn’t be able to explain to the board of directors afterward.

"I believe in Jiang Man," Lu Xingzhou said unconcernedly, even looking forward to it.

Just now, Jiang Man’s unflappable demeanor, combined with her past actions.

He guessed that Jiang Man must have a secret identity—undoubtedly, she must be Anna, the head designer at LV!
