Chapter 309: Hian’s interview

Because minister Su did not want anybody to realize that the emperor was here in disguise, he personally prepared a plate of food for him. He had to carry two large plates and three smaller plates over because the emperor wanted a taste of everything.

"What kind of yellow rice is this? I haven’t seen grains as fat as these before. Is it a new breed she cultivated from her lab?" the emperor asked Minister Su.

"I will make enquiries later." Minister Su answered.

"It’s quite tasty; I wonder what they added to it." He said as he ate it by mouthfuls.

"Hmm." Minister Su replied as he chewed his food with relish.

Meanwhile Chi Lian was preparing for food for madam An, since she was in a wheel chair. Since she was a guest, it would be rude to let her fend for herself.

"Sister, Hian’s interview is coming on if you want to watch." Chi Zimo came over and whispered to her.

She had been looking forward to that interview for days,

"I am coming." She told him. "Save me a seat."

She delivered food to the table where her mother, madam An, Muyang’s mother, his grandmother and the Queen dowager were sitting.

Each of the women had food already. Mei-Mei was being fed by her mother under the watchful eye of madam An.

"Mother," she said, "I am going to eat from the living room. Hian’s interview is on and I have to watch it."

"Oh, I want to watch that too." Muyang’s mother said.

"Me too." The old madam said.

"And my granddaughter is the interviewer; I never miss a single interview of hers. I thought the show is always on at eight p.m. Did you change the time?"

This question came from the queen dowager who was looking at Chi Lian questioningly. With her eyes pointing sharply at her, Chi Lian felt the urge to explain.

"Hian’s interview is a special case; it’s going to be a two hour long special. We made an announcement about the change in timing of the program two days ago."

"We should all just move to the living room and eat from there." The old madam suggested.

"Don’t we have a television in here? Chi Rui had a television installed in almost every room of the house because in the entertainment business you have to stay ahead of your competitors every second. I could have sworn that he had a television installed in this room." Mama Chi said unsurely.

Her eyes along with all the other women’s were roaming around in search of a television.

"There is something up there." Muyang’s mother said. She was pointing up on the wall where something was mounted but covered with a black cloth. It was box shaped so the best assumption was that it was a television.

"Is any of us tall enough to reach it?" Mama Chi asked.

"With all the tall men in this room why should we climb up there?" the queen dowager said. "Chi-Chi, get someone to remove the cover."

Chi Lian stood up while asking herself why she had to be the youngest in this group. Xue Lili was here but she was in the playroom with the children. She had invited. Yifei but she was yet to arrive. The big chef was also in the living room probably knee deep in conversation with Tao Yichen.

She spotted minister Su and made a move in this direction. He was talking to his friend who was wearing a hat and had kept to himself the entire time.

"Minister Su.’ She said.

"Miss Chi." He replied. He also put down his chop sticks because she was clearly here for a reason.

"Can you please help me take the cloth off that cover off the television?" He was tall enough to reach up.

"Sure." He answered as he ushered her suspiciously quickly away from where he was sitting.

Once the television was uncovered, it was switched on and she switched to the phoenix channel immediately.

The interview was just starting and all the ladies paid eager attention. On the screen, Rize and Hian were sitting comfortably across each other. Hian was wearing a white dress with black floral patterns and Rize was dressed in a light green pant suit with a white shirt, a matching coat with a belt and heels.

"Rize looks great." The queen dowager commented.

"Of course she does, I personally handle her wardrobe." Muyang’s said proudly.

"Shhh!" the old madam silenced them. "It’s starting."

A live studio audience which was filled with Hian’s fans and a few sneaky journalists from magazines and bloggers was clapping.

The theme song died down and the interview started.

Rize: "Welcome to tea with a princess everyone, I am your host the people’s beloved princess Long Rize and today in the studio we have former actress Hian. Doesn’t she look gorgeous?" she asked the audience.

Audience: "Yes" they answered in perfect harmony and clapped.

Rize: "Welcome to tea with a princess Hian."

Hian: "Thank you princess I am so happy to be here."

Rize: "First of all you look so beautiful and before we get down to the main issuess of the day I am sure all the ladies would love to know where you got the dress from."

Female audience members: "Woooooo"

Hian: "I got the dress from Ctar luxury fashions. The owner dressed me up so beautifully because if you look good on the outside, you feel good on the inside."

"Rize: "Well isn’t that so nice of her. For her good heart I am going to support her business by buying myself a few outfits from Ctar later on. "

Audience: "Woooo" and more clapping followed.

Hian and Rize sipped some milk tea while the clapping faded away.

"You should advertise your tea on the show." Mama Chi whispered to Chi Lian.

Rize: "Now we should get down to what brought us all here, the story that took the nation by a storm. It’s the love story which was not a happily ever after but a nightmare from the depths of hell."
