Chapter 890
Seeing Bai Peiluan’s excited look, Ye Xingguang suddenly really wanted to make his mother-in-law proud, “Alright, then I’ll go. I’ve just enough time. Any later and I probably won’t be able to go because I have to return to the sea floor. I’ve made a promise with several elders there to come back in half a month, and this happens to be the last day of that half-month.”
The last night of the half-month journey, the annual Golden Melody Awards ceremony officially opened at eight o’clock in the Imperial City.
As a grand music event, the red carpet was walked by all the big stars of the music scene, with media gathered from all around to catch every singer coming to the ceremony for live interviews. The site was truly glittering with stars.
There were many singers whose names Ye Xingguang couldn’t even recall; after all, although she was attending the awards ceremony, she had never been involved in the music scene and was really an outsider. She didn’t plan to walk the red carpet and slipped in through a special entrance clad in a thick down jacket.
Tonight, Old Lady Shen and Lord Gu were the ones who walked the red carpet together.
Once a golden couple of the music world, dubbed the Mount Tai and North Star of the industry, they had never made a public appearance together after their divorce. Now, their appearance sparked rumors of a reunion, a topic that made the media reporters buzz like flies smelling meat.noveldrama
The host for the pre-show live broadcast was especially keen to surround the two industry giants and not let them go, “Master Gu, I heard that you’ve been pursuing Old Lady Shen again lately. When can we expect to see some wedding candy from you two?”
Lord Gu, with his hair tied in a small braid, dressed more fashionably than the youths and with the charm of a fine wine that only gets better with age, his spirits lifted by the happy occasion, all smiley, “Soon, very soon.”
Old Lady Shen, also dressed with great elegance, not outshone by the thin and beautiful young stars, turned a cold shoulder to Lord Gu upon hearing this, quite dismissively, “What’s ‘soon’? Don’t listen to his nonsense, there’s nothing to it!”
“How can there be nothing? Our reconciliation is just around the corner, we are just in the observation period,” Lord Gu wanted to proclaim to the world desperately. As long as this observation period was over, he was certain he could win back his ex-wife.
The host was nearly brought to laughter by Lord Gu, while the netizens watching the live broadcast were frenziedly hitting like and sending hearts.
Just then, a louder wave of cheers erupted at the venue, reporters and hosts alike turned to look, only to see Xia Yanyan arm in arm with Harry Perry, the president of Perry Corporation, striding forward in high heels.
Despite Xia Family’s recent involvement in a negative PR crisis and Xia Yanyan herself being ridiculed by many netizens to the point of disgrace offshore, her domestic influence could not be undermined overnight. As a national treasure, she had a solid fanbase that made her shine wherever she went, basking in endless glory.
She looked absolutely heavenly in her dress today. The reporters, seeing the inherently newsworthy Xia Yanyan, instantly had their eyes light up, even the host couldn’t wait to leave Master Gu and Old Lady Shen and rushed to interview Xia Yanyan.
Before the host could get Xia Yanyan for the live broadcast, the signer of the guestbook, Xia Yanyan, was caught by reporters prepared with numerous questions, “Miss Xia, we heard that during your recent sea-floor vacation, you had a physical altercation with a local noble lady, and it’s said that the reason was your desire to become the Sea God of their nation, even going so far as to insult their queen. Is this true?”
