This was the main venue sponsored by the Yan Group. As a competitor, Ju Xingchen naturally wouldn't receive an invitation.
Yan Zhenting had already reminded his subordinates to stop a competitor like Ju Xingchen from attending such an important award ceremony.
"How dare you stop me? Do you know who I am?" Ju Xingchen shouted.
The two staff members at the door looked at each other and pointed at the sign beside them. "We know. You are Ju Xingchen."
The subordinates looked at the sign beside them. Ju Xingchen's photo was pasted on it. There was also a line of words: This person and his dog are not allowed to enter.
Ju Xingchen's face instantly darkened. This Yan Zhenting actually dared to humiliate him so brazenly.
"Yan Zhenting, no matter what, I will go in today." At this moment, he was angry from embarrassment and planned to force his way in.
However, there were many reporters behind him. His subordinates pulled him to the side. If he flared up here, he would definitely be exposed by the media.
"Young Master, don't worry. We can think of another way!" The subordinates immediately pulled him to the back door of the theater.
However, the back door was also guarded. They probably already expected Ju Xingchen to come back, so they had already prepared beforehand.
Just as they were feeling helpless, the subordinates found a cave under the wall. "Young Master, look here."
Ju Xingchen bent down to look at the cave. His face instantly darkened. He glared fiercely at the subordinates beside him. "This is a dog hole."
He was the dignified chairman of the Ju Group. How could he crawl into a dog hole? If this was discovered, how could he face others in the future?
After being reprimanded, the subordinates didn't dare to make a sound. "But Young Master, if we don't go in now, this Mumu Zi will really be snatched away by Yan Zhenting."
A man should know when to yield and when not to. Wasn't this just a dog hole? There was no one around to see.
Ju Xingchen clenched his fists. He couldn't care less now. In order to achieve his goal, he would do anything. Today, he would crawl into this dog hole.
Once he signed Mumu Zi and Lin Ruoruo obediently returned to the new city, he would teach that despicable Yan Zhenting a lesson.
Yan Zhenting had already arrived at the scene. He had ordered his men to keep an eye on the surroundings, waiting for Mumu Zi to appear.
However, even though the award ceremony was about to begin, the highly anticipated Mumu Zi still did not appear.
Mumu Zi's lounge had been empty the whole time. No one came, and there was no news. Did she really not plan to come?
However, the news from the publisher just now was that Mumu Zi would definitely appear at the award ceremony.
"Haha, we made such a big fuss, but in the end, she still didn't show up." Yan Zhenfeng always appeared at this time and then mocked and ridiculed them.
"If this Mumu Zi doesn't appear, this Lin Ruoruo probably won't sign the contract!" He really knew everything clearly.
At this time, a familiar voice came from behind. "How do you know that she won't come?"
The two of them looked in the direction of the voice. It turned out that Lu Qingyun had appeared at the scene. At this time, she was walking over from Mumu Zi's lounge.
The champagne-colored dress was designed to be very intellectual and beautiful, especially the style of the suit. The collar was unique.
When he saw her, Yan Zhenfeng snorted coldly. "Sister-in-law, do you mean that you know this Mumu Zi?"
Lu Qingyun glanced at Yan Zhenfeng and slowly walked to Yan Zhenting's side. "Anyway, at least I know her better than you."
Since she said that this Mumu Zi would come today, he sneered in the face of her nonsense. "Okay, then I'll wait and see."
"Why are you here?" Seeing her suddenly appear, Yan Zhenting remembered that when he asked her during the day, she said that she didn't want to come.
"Yes, I saw that you cared about this author, so I suddenly wanted to come and see." Lu Qingyun pushed the wheelchair toward the VIP seats. "Don't worry, she will definitely come."
Previously, she had shouted that she wanted to help him. Could it be that she really knew something? That was why she dared to say those words just now.
At this time, the award ceremony officially began. The host on the stage walked on the stage. The award ceremony was about to begin.
All the guests had been seated, except for the seat with Mumu Zi's name written on it, which was empty.
"Next up is the long-awaited winner of the award, the best-selling female author of the year, Ms. Mumu Zi."
At this time, it was already time for the award ceremony. Standing on the stage and seeing that no one had appeared, the host felt a little embarrassed.
The scene was also in an uproar. If Mumu Zi didn't come, what would they do? Yan Group would lose face.
"Creak!"
At this time, the door was pushed open, and a young girl wearing glasses and carrying a satchel ran in from outside.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm late!" She was only about 20 years old, and hurriedly ran to the podium to receive the award.
"So she is Mumu Zi." Because of the girl's sudden appearance, the spotlights and cameras were instantly focused on her.
She was an ordinary-looking girl who looked a little dull. No one expected her to be the legendary romance queen.
"Ms. Mumu Zi, congratulations on winning the best-selling female author of the year award. Please give a speech."
Looking at the close-up camera, the girl was obviously a little scared. She trembled as she held the award. "I, I am not Mumu Zi. I am only her assistant."
"What? Mumu Zi didn't come? She only sent an assistant to receive the award? "
"So she is not Mumu Zi. I mean, why does such a famous novelist look so silly?"
"She won't not show up today. How could she use an assistant to fool us?"
"…"
Lu Qingyun looked at the disappointed expressions of the people around her. It was naturally very regrettable that they didn't see Mumu Zi in person.
In Yan Zhenting's opinion, even if Mumu Zi didn't show up, an assistant would be enough.
With this assistant, he would be one step closer to signing in with Mumu Zi.
"After the award ceremony, I want to see this assistant alone!" he whispered to his subordinates beside him.
However, things were not as simple as Yan Zhenting thought. As soon as the award ceremony ended, the assistant was completely surrounded by the director and the media. She had no time to leave at all.
It was unknown when Ju Xingchen had come in, but she had also brought her men to look for the female assistant.
"Miss Assistant, Xincheng Film and Television is very interested in Mumu Zi. Please give me her contact information."
Lu Qingyun and Yan Zhenting could only watch from the side. The timid and pitiful assistant was almost drowned by these people.
"Hey, isn't she just a novelist? Is there a need to be so exaggerated?" Lu Qingyun couldn't help but shake her head.
