"There will be plenty of actors and celebrities attending Chanel's gala tonight. But, with your current popularity, I don't think you lose out to any of them." On the way to the gala, Long Jie knelt down in front of Tangning and helped her tidy up her dress. However, Tangning noticed that Long Jie had also dressed up a little.
"By the time the gala ends, it will be around 11pm. Will you still be going on a date with Lu Che?"
Long Jie smiled mysteriously with a proud expression, "Yes, can't I?"
"In that case, you should leave early. Ting will come pick me up later..." Tangning said as she held onto her handbag.
"We're almost there. Hurry and get ready. This is the first time you and Boss have appeared together in public. Do you think the media will let you off?" Long Jie tidied up Tangning's silver dress. After the van stopped, she finally opened the door.
Celebrities walked down the red carpet one after another. By this time, Tangning had already gotten used to the dark cameras and flashing lights. Even without Mo Ting by her side, her brilliance was still irresistible.
"Look, the person walking down the red carpet is our Tangning. Her silver dress really complements her elegant and noble aura. Let's welcome Tangning."
They were in a 5-star hotel, so the red carpet wasn't long. It was only a few meters long. Afterwards, Tangning approached the autograph wall and signed her name to the cameras. She then handed the pen in her hand back to the host.
"Once again, let's welcome Tangning. Please enter the venue."
The luxurious hotel lobby was decorated with pink and champagne-colored roses. Below the stage, the names of the guests were written on the seats and bracelets made out of fresh flowers were placed on the seats.
Tangning sat in her seat. On her left was the popular A-list actress, Jiang Yun. However, she had already married into a wealthy family. On her right, the person hadn't arrived yet. However, she wasn't from the entertainment industry. Her name was Chi Xinyan.
Jiang Yun arrived first. Her aura was outstanding. If Tangning was described as cold, then Jiang Yun had a hint of otherworldly aura.
Tangning nodded politely at the man, and the man smiled back.
At this time, the guest on Tangning's right finally arrived.
Tangning and Jiang Yun turned their heads and looked to their right. The guest on the right obviously didn't expect to see Tangning...
Tangning could see the surprise in the guest's eyes. But, from what she could remember, they didn't seem to know each other.
"Miss Tangning, I am a fan of yours." Chi Xinyan stretched out her hand and revealed an impeccable smile. Of course, she wasn't someone from the entertainment industry because that would lower her level. She was the heiress of a tycoon. How could she possibly be an exposed actress?
She was the heiress of a tycoon. How could she possibly be an actress?
Tangning couldn't see any kindness in the woman's eyes. But, it wasn't to the point of becoming enemies. So, Tangning stretched out her hand, grabbed onto the woman's slender hand and shook it gently.
Afterwards, the man quickly pulled his hand away as Tangning furrowed her brows.
Chi Xinyan maintained her polite smile as she stood up and excused herself to go to the bathroom. Tangning was a little confused. At this time, a clear voice drifted into her ears, "This Chi Xinyan is the heiress of GJ Corporation. She has a high opinion of herself and doesn't like to interact with women from the entertainment industry. After shaking hands with you a moment ago, she is now going to wash her hands."
Tangning turned and looked at Jiang Yun. She nodded her head to show that she didn't mind.
"She comes from a higher status, so it's understandable."
"I remember that you also come from a century-old perfume family. In terms of background, you may not be better than her."
With the mention of the Tang family, Tangning's expression turned even colder. In fact, her voice sounded a little cold, "I am just a model."
Jiang Yun smiled without saying a word. At a place like this, they were just talking to each other. After all, they were all from different agencies. Who would want to be honest with them?
A moment later, Chi Xinyan returned to her seat. At this time, the distance that Tangning emitted was getting stronger. At times like this, she was usually telling people to stay away.
However, Chi Xinyan's gaze was too intense. Every now and then, it would land on Tangning, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Halfway through the dinner, Mo Ting suddenly gave her a phone call. Tangning glanced at the caller ID, stood up and headed to the bathroom with her phone.
"Around what time will it be over? I'll come pick you up. "
"Around 11pm," Tangning replied.
"OK, I'll leave Hai Rui at 10.30pm."
Tangning hung up the phone and returned to her seat. Afterwards, Chi Xinyan smiled and asked, "Is that President Mo?"
Hearing Chi Xinyan's question, Tangning felt extremely uncomfortable. It was as if she and Mo Ting were very familiar with each other.
"Please send my regards to President Mo."
Tangning's gaze suddenly changed from polite to sharp. In fact, it even contained a hint of ridicule, "Miss Chi seems to have an inexplicable sense of hostility towards me."
"Go back and ask President Mo. He should know best." Chi Xinyan's' I'm his old love 'expression made Tangning feel a little annoyed. But, she was never one to show her emotions on her face. Of course, she couldn't possibly suspect Mo Ting just because of one sentence from Chi Xinyan.
It was never her style to suffer a loss …
Just as Jiang Yun thought Tangning was once again helpless against Chi Xinyan, Tangning suddenly pulled out her phone from her handbag and dialed Mo Ting's number right in front of the two.
"Ting..."
"Huh?" Mo Ting's voice sounded from the other end of the phone with a deep and charming tone.
"Do you know Chi Xinyan?" Tangning asked straightforwardly.
"Who is that?" Mo Ting was a little surprised as he asked back.
Tangning let out a gentle laugh as she put down her phone. Chi Xinyan's expression did not look too good when she heard 'who'.
"It seems, President Mo sure has a short memory. When you get home, ask him if he remembers who his assistant called at the Civil Affairs Office on August 19th."
After hearing Chi Xinyan's words, Tangning finally understood a little. At the time, Mo Ting had also gone to get married, but... the bride did not arrive.
So, it was Chi Xinyan...
But, if Mo Ting said he didn't know her, then he didn't know her. As for why it was Chi Xinyan, Tangning was going to ask a certain someone when she got home. But now...
"He has never remembered unimportant people or things."
After hearing this, Chi Xinyan did not get angry. She simply leaned in closer to Tangning and said, "According to Mo Ting's family background, there is no way he would marry you. You should be aware of your own limitations because you will never be able to help him with his career. Plus, I'm sure you know better than me how dirty a female model is."
Chi Xinyan expected Tangning to fly into a rage out of humiliation...
But, Tangning remained calm...
