Imperial Treasure-Chapter 929 - 562: Gathering of Heroes
Upon arriving at the venue, Sui Yi and Mo Ke saw the packed hall, with many foreign guests present, tall and solid foreign bodyguards in black suits, and also some military personnel.
Among the blonde-haired crowd, Sui Yi and Mo Ke couldn’t tell who was Frank, but they did see the highly popular Duke’s family.
Well, the main reason was Chuck’s high popularity; more than half the students’ cheers were for him, making the world-renowned Duke and Duchess seem like supporting players. Of course, the couple was quite willing to embrace this role.
The crowd was overwhelming, and Chuck, dressed in a black small suit and vest, struggled to spot the just-arrived Sui Yi but couldn’t approach to hug her leg, so he could only wave in her direction...
However, he quickly lowered his hand again because his parents had advised him not to reveal his goddess easily at the event; otherwise, many oddballs and Godzillas would come to snatch her...
NO! The goddess is mine!
Chuck maintained a serious demeanor, pretending as if he had done everything before, his gaze unmoved, hands folded on his lap, resembling a seated Buddha statue, just not quite sitting cross-legged.
The Duke and Duchess looked bright-eyed, while the others burst into laughter.
The just warmly greeted Little Duke, suddenly faced the "unknown" Sui Yi also froze for a moment, then chuckled.
One wonders if the Little Duke would hysterically remember this moment when he grows up to inherit the Duke title.
Everyone found it adorable.
In the midst of laughter, Sui Yi suddenly paused, realizing there were still some extremely popular individuals aside from Chuck.
"Celebrities? This conference sure is a gathering of stars," Mo Ke remarked in mild surprise.
At the area to their right diagonally, there were a dozen seats occupied by stars often seen on television.
There were five veteran actors, renowned for both their ethics and skills, although not as celebrated as the younger generation, but respected and highly regarded.
The rest were top-tier stars.
All were top celebrities: leading actresses, actors, the highest-popularity stars, and so on.
Their appearance fees easily surpassed tens of millions, with two of them even named in top international entertainment circles.
They brought the highest beauty index to the whole venue.
Yet, among them was Pu Qinghan.
Though she was seated low in the hierarchy, it highlighted her growing popularity and recognition in the entertainment industry.
It’s said that her new movie has premiered, with box office and reviews soaring, making her the hottest topic in the industry right now.
Pu Qinghan indeed experienced what it meant to explode into fame within the past four to five months, but she continually adjusted her posture, keeping a calm mindset, not losing her original intention, and continuing her efforts.
This attitude was precisely why she sat there yet wasn’t excluded by the veteran artists. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
However, amidst the crowd, her gaze swept...
Finally, she spotted the people.
But also noticed something was off.
Once Sui Yi and Mo Ke sat down, someone took a seat behind them.
In a rigid, cold suit, with a handsome yet strict face, and glasses reflecting a cold light.
Justin.
"I hadn’t expected you’d return to the country," Sui Yi said lightly.
"If I recall correctly, your first assistant Miss Lin just submitted a property usage plan, considering emotions and logic, I am obliged to appear before you, to verify some matters and slightly trouble you to move your beautiful hand to sign some documents."
"Quite a grudge."
"Although it’s somewhat untimely, I still need to remind you, Miss Sui, you are my most worrisome client."
Justin’s words caused Mo Ke and Ye Zixu to simultaneously raise their eyebrows.
Yet Sui Yi squinted slightly, saying, "Not meeting you might purely be to eliminate some doubts that could cause adverse effects, don’t you think, Mr. Justin?"
"Sounds pretty reasonable, which is why I must come this time. Honestly, you are the most beautiful and charming client I’ve collaborated with, I certainly don’t wish to miss you because of some trivial suspicions."
Justin narrowed his eyes, looking at Sui Yi’s slender and fair neck, slightly smirked: "You are the first lady to make me, Justin, have such thoughts."
Heh~ Even when speaking of love, Justin, known as a cold-blooded ghost in finance, carries a chill and depth that make one irresistible to question and probe deeper.
Ye Zixu turned his face, just about to speak with Sui Yi.
"Sui Yi! Sui Yi!"
"Sui Yi! Sui Yi! Sui Yi!"
"Sui Yi! Sui Yi! Sui Yi! Sui Yi! Sui Yi!"
Originally thinking proximity to Sui Yi would yield an advantage to enjoy the conference, Ye Zixu and Mo Ke found themselves surrounded by a mass of girls: "...."
