"It's rare to host a film festival, even if it's not grand and doesn't invite many people. With a star like Han Bi attending, we can consider it a success," Zhou Chengge said with a smile.

Wenran nodded.

Lin Ning went to greet the other directors, while Zhou Chengge also ran into acquaintances and told Wenran to be careful before walking off to chat with old friends.

Wenran didn't recognize anyone, and since others only knew her as Lin Ning's newly promoted actress with lots of rumors surrounding her, no one bothered to talk to her much, leaving her sidelined.

Ye Feimo was expressionless the whole time. His gaze swept past Wenran, seeing her alone and aimlessly wandering around, occasionally greeting a few stars. His brows furrowed slightly, his eyes colder than ever.

She had lost weight again!

A pang of pain flashed across his eyes before quickly disappearing.

"You are the new actress Lin Ning has been promoting recently. You look pretty," an middle-aged man walked over. Wenran didn't recognize him, and he extended a hand, "My name is Yu Peng."

Wenran also extended her hand, "Mr. Yu, nice to meet you."

Yu Peng said, "I've watched Miss Wen's music video; your physique is great. Let me put it this way: how much would a night with you cost"

The expression on Wenran's face changed slightly, her complexion alternating between green and white, anger mixed with embarrassment. When had soliciting become so brazen

"Mr. Yu, what did you just say I didn't understand," Wenran replied.

Yu Peng said smugly, "Don't pretend to be high-minded; you know exactly what I'm talking about. Everyone was saying earlier that you got this role by climbing into Lin Ning's bed. What difference does it make if one more person climbs in I have a movie specially funded just for you to be the lead actress and promote your fame." His attitude was condescending, almost as if he were bestowing a favor, with a hint of disdain.

Wenran smiled coldly. Men these days truly are getting more despicable; they clearly view actresses like prostitutes who can be toyed with at will, yet they still come to solicit because sleeping with an actress must prove something or perhaps satisfy their pathetic sense of superiority and self-esteem.

To have a beautiful woman by your side to show off also reveals this kind of despicable mentality in Mr. Yu Peng.

Wenran found his face repulsive just looking at him.

"Sorry, you pick people, I also pick people. Someone like you, I'm not interested," Warm said indifferently as she glanced to the side and tried to leave, only to be stopped by Yu Peng.

He laughed insincerely a few times: "An actress with quite an attitude What qualifications do you have to pick others Tell me, how much are you asking for"

Warm was slightly angry: "Sir, have you ever hit a brick wall in your hook-up experiences before Well, this is the first time. Everything has its first time, and as someone with status and identity, you shouldn't lose face after losing substance."

Yu Peng was furious; when Warm tried to leave, he glared coldly, thinking that those without shame would take a punishment instead of a toast.

For a moment, Warm stood alone. Then Zhou Chengge came over and asked with a smile: "Are you bored"

"A bit."

He chuckled and said: "Let's go then. I'll introduce you to more people."

Zhou Chengge was quite a good senior, not unwilling to help newcomers; since the play 'Beauty Topples the City' was originally made to promote the main actress, he didn't mind taking her around and introducing her to other artists and directors. Warm behaved with humility and won everyone's favor.

"Chengge, it's been a long time. You look even more handsome," Han Bi said as she came over with Ye Feimo to greet Zhou Chengge.

"Yes, it has been a while." Zhou Chengge said warmly; he wasn't very close to Han Bi, only having co-starred in one play and not many scenes together. They were just acquaintances, so he was rather surprised that she had greeted him.

"Your lead movie is about to be released, I'm looking forward to it. This time for sure you'll reach a new level," Han Bi said with a smile.

Warm thought inwardly: 'Blindly praising others Clearly she doesn't think much of this film and even mocked Lin Ning before, now saying she's looking forward to it. She must be telling lies just because of who she is talking to.'

Ye Feimo stood silently beside her, expressionless, as if he was merely an ornament for Han Bi; his gaze focused entirely on Warm.

Warm didn't look at him and acted as though she couldn't see this person, ignoring Ye Feimo's existence completely.

"Miss Wen, nice to meet you again. Did your injury heal"

"Thanks for asking, it healed long ago," Warm said indifferently.

Han Bi gave a meaningful smile and, somewhat boastfully, linked her arm through Ye Feimo's. She said in an intimate tone, "Feimo, why didn't you greet Miss Wen"

Ye Feimo didn't even look at her; his expression was cold.

Warm gave a faint smile. "General Manager Ye, how do you remember such a small figure as me We won't disturb you any longer, so excuse us."

Saying this, she turned and walked away. Zhou Chengge smiled amicably and followed her.

"Warm, do you know General Manager Ye"

"No." Warm's voice had a hint of chilliness to it. Ye Feimo's gaze darkened; he clenched his fist tightly. No Such a definitive answer, without any room for discussion.

She said she didn't know him.

The expression on Ye Feimo's face was as grim and unforgiving as an old coffin lid.

Han Bi softly said, "Feimo, you barely agreed to accompany me to the film festival this time. Please try to be a little more cheerful, okay Don't keep such a long face."

Her tone now carried a whiff of pouting.

Ye Feimo's gaze followed Warm's retreating figure and he coldly said, "Do you think I wanted to come with you"

He was thinking about her again.

But he didn't want Warm to know that he missed her. He really wanted to see her but couldn't find a reason to do so. Coincidentally, Han Bi had invited him to the film festival, and Lin Ning said she would bring Zhou Chengge and Warm along as well.

Only then did he agree with Han Bi's invitation; otherwise, he wouldn't have any excuse at all.

Was she still angry

This time, it seemed that her anger was quite serious. She ignored him completely when she saw him, and Ye Feimo gave a cold snort in his heart.

Han Bi's expression darkened as she looked in the direction of Ruan Ning and said, "She never lacks knights who protect her. Fei Mo, why do you need to worry about her"

"If I don't worry about her, should I then worry about you"

Han Bi was momentarily speechless.

Ruan Ning and Zhou Chengge accepted interviews from local reporters. The topics they discussed were all related to the film this time around. Both of them conscientiously promoted the movie on their behalf, while the cold beauty director had a great time with her old friends in the room and completely ignored them.

It was hard for them to wait until the end of the film festival, only then did Lin Ning and Zhou Chengge leave with several others. They were staying at the Marriott Hotel.

Zhou Chengge asked Ruan Ning if she was hungry and took her up to the coffee shop on the top floor for some coffee. Lin Ning happened to need a cup of coffee as well, so they went together. They also invited quite a few people from the film crew over for an elaborate midnight feast.

"Everyone eat your fill, Director Lin is treating," Ruan Ning clapped her hands and laughed merrily while inviting Cheng Ying to sit beside her. She couldn't help but tease him.

Director Lin said, "It's not a treat, it’s covered by the public expenses. Eat quickly before Second Young Master collapses."

The others laughed along with Ruan Ning.

When she thought about Ye Feimo, who had been purposely ignoring her discomfort in her heart, the scene of him being together with Han Bi came to mind. The two looked quite well-suited for each other, a perfect match made in heaven and earth.

If it were herself standing beside Ye Feimo, she probably wouldn't be as dazzling.

They truly seemed like they belonged together from the start.

Although her fondness for Han Bi had already diminished, Han Bi did possess her own charm and splendor. It was not strange that men would like a woman like her.

Still, she felt uneasy in her heart.

Ruan Ning felt as if she had eaten a fly when thinking about Ye Feimo and the nickname Little Han Bi.

"Ruan Ning, why do you look so unhappy Are you tired" Cheng Ying asked with concern. Ruan Ning and Zhou Chengge participated in more promotional activities than others, and they both had dark circles under their eyes, which led Cheng Ying to think that she was indeed exhausted.s worried that Wannuan would get hurt.However, when Wannuan recounted how Ye Feimo saved her in Rome, Mrs. Wen had no further objections. As parents, their daughter's happiness mattered most to them.T...
