Upon hearing this, the girls looked angry and were about to curse back, when they realized they recognized who this person was. They immediately shut up and didn’t let the curses leave their mouths. He Wanyi stared at the mean girls who now dared not say anything, and snorted. “Did I say anything wrong?”
Chen Ziyan’s eyes lit up when she saw He Wanyi, like she couldn’t believe that the woman she saw was He Wanyi. She looked at her carefully for quite a while before she exclaimed with surprise, “Wanyi! I love your works! I didn’t expect you were just as straightforward and upright as you are in your roles!”
He Wanyi’s roles were, for the most part, particularly domineering and upright girls and some of them were even chivalrous. It was also often reported that she liked to uphold justice and help the weak, like saving an assistant of an actress from that actress’s abuse, or something along that narrative. Therefore, Chen Ziyan had been fond of her, and now she liked her even more than before.
He Wanyi wore a blue fishtail dress, showing of her good figure. Her makeup that was applied was especially suitable for her dress, and made her look gorgeous. She took a look at Chen ziyan and smiled at her. “You too. We’re the same.”
Chen Ziyan flushed after being praised by her. He Wanyi spotted her nanny van from a distance, but she wanted to give Xiao Rou a surprise, so she didn’t walk to the car but cast a warning glance at those girls and went to the red carpet.
Many stars were invited today as representatives of the alumni of the First High School of City A. Ning Yan and He Wanzhou had come too. As the media puts it, almost half of the stars and famous directors of City A would be invited to the art performance of the First High School of City A every year.

But the main focus of attention was the three directors of the school. And most surprisingly, Qiao Liang had come! He hardly ever showed up to social events, not to mention an occasion like this. No one expected he would show up here!
Chen Ziyan looked at He Wanyi and exclaimed, “God, what a perfect actress! She is good at acting, nice to people and beautiful!”
Those girls wanted to taunt her upon hearing her words, but in the end, they just snorted and turned away.
On this side, Tang Xi had finished dressing herself. The makeup artist was almost stunned by her beauty. Tang Xi looked at herself in the mirror. Her face had stopped changing now, but had already become stunningly beautiful. If she hadn’t looked at this face every day, she would have been attracted to it too.
At this time, her cellphone rang. Tang Xi picked up the phone. “Jing, you’ve arrived?”
In a SUV, Xiao Jing glared at Qiao Liang who was sitting beside him and said, “Get out of your car. I’m getting out of my car. Let’s walk the red carpet together.”
Tang Xi said, “Okay.”
The school took this art performance very seriously. The Empire High School didn’t have an art performance nor a red carpet, so she hadn’t walked the red carpet before. This was the first time she walked the red carpet, so she was a little bit nervous.
At this time, someone approached and opened the car door. Tang Xi smiled and her aura immediately turned graceful and confident, exuding a presence that uniquely belonged to the princess of the Empire Group. Qiao Liang paused when he saw Tang Xi. At this moment, he was sure that this girl was the one he had been loving.

Tang Xi was stunned when she saw it was Qiao Liang, and then she unconsciously gave Qiao Liang her hand. Qiao Liang took her hand, and supported her to get out of the car. Tang Xi looked at him and was about to ask him why it was him instead of Xiao Jing, when she heard people exclaimed. She looked up only to see everyone was looking at them. Tang Xi hurriedly stopped the words she was about to say and put on a smile.
Chen Ziyan looked at Tang Xi from a distance. She was in a red dress and looked like a queen with her prince consort. She suddenly felt that her previous worries were unnecessary. Tang Xi never disappointed her, or to be exact, she never disappointed anyone.
The long red dress was designed with a V-neck and a hollowed-out back, which showed the perfect waist line of Tang Xi. The trailing skirt hemline looked gorgeous. The red dress didn’t have a lot of patterns but despite this it didn’t appear monotonous and instead looked noble and upscale.
Standing on the other end of the red carpet and Looking at Tang Xi, He Wanyi smiled and thought that it seemed that she should stop endorsing those luxury brands and become The Queen’s endorser.
Qiao Liang who was walking next to Tang Xi was thinking of something else. He felt like he was asserting his ownership over Tang Xi by walking next to her on the red carpet. He was telling everyone that Tang Xi was his and they were one.
They walked to the signing area, and Qiao Liang signed his name. At this time, the host said, “Xiao Rou looks particularly beautiful today. I’m here today to have a close contact with our commercial genius President Qiao, but when I saw Xiao Rou, I forgot about President Qiao. Please come here. Can you say something to our audience?”
Qiao Liang strode ahead of Tang Xi, stood between the host and Tang Xi, took the microphone and said flatly, “It’s the first time for me to attend a school festival and walk the red carpet. It feels good.” With that, he handed the microphone to Tang Xi like a gentleman.
Tang Xi took the microphone and smiled. “It’s also the first time I am attending a school festival. I’m glad to enjoy this moment with all of you. This Mr. Qiao is a very handsome man and I’m honored to walk the red carpet with him.” Then she handed the microphone back to Qiao Liang.
The host smiled. “It’s also the first time I am hosting such a big event and I’m honored to have you join us. I remember Xiao Rou will give us a performance, right?” He then leaned towards Tang Xi.
The smile on Qiao Liang’s face was immediately gone and his face turned icy. Tang Xi noticed it and glanced at him. Then she nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’ll give a piano performance. I hope you like it, thank you.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Liang took her hand and turned to leave. The host who was about to continue to interview her paused and then said, “Now let’s welcome the excellent representatives of our alumni, Ning Yan, He Wanzhou, He Wanning, Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa!”
