Fang Xie immediately contacted the Public Relations Department and had them prepare several drafts. The moment the red carpet was completed, they were to upload these posts and attract everyone’s attention.
A-Shan took two steps back and was satisfied with the work done. Warm tears rolled down her face. “Sister Su! Believe me! Once you walk the red carpet, everyone’s soul will be sucked away by your charming and breathtaking figure!”
Su Jishi was speechless. “… You’re being too serious, sister.”
Meanwhile, Xiao Xia softly and quietly carried a jewelry box over and excitedly said, “Sister Su, and this —”
The logo of a luxurious and famous brand was carved on the box. It was from one of Italy’s watch and jewelry manufacturers established in the 19th century; the founder had created a crown for the Queen of England before. After 200 years or so of development, this brand had long become everyone’s favorite. The men’s watches and women’s jewellery were the indication of status and style.
The manufacturer was extremely arrogant and disdained crossing paths with insignificant celebrities. Even if they were the most popular celebrities, they were just considered as ‘promotion ambassadors’ and would become the spokesperson of a certain product.
For Su Jin, she had signed the promotion contract with this brand. She was the spokesperson for the series named “Heart’s Words” which was, true to its name, an entire set of heart-shaped diamond accessories, including a necklace, bracelet, ring, etc.
Therefore, when Xiao Xia brought the jewelry box over, Su Jishi assumed that it must contain the “Heart’s Words” series of accessories.
However, when the lid was opened, there was a sparkling sapphire necklace sitting snuggly before her eyes! The lake-blue precious stone was a perfect match to her evening gown.
Su Jishi sucked in a deep breath and hurriedly asked Fang Xie, “How much does this cost?!”
Fang Xie pinched his fingers and calculated, saying casually, “It’s ok. It’s just worth a lake-view mansion in the second tier tourist city.”
Su Jishi was speechless.
Fang Xie sighed and said, “I originally wanted to borrow a house in the urban district for you, but the Film Empress’ team beat us to it.”
Su Jishi hurriedly said, “Enough, enough!”
Money in the entertainment circle wasn’t considered money. A beautiful necklace was enough to hire two Ph.Ds as academic advisors for a decade!
The thin snake bone chain crossed in front of her neck, the blue precious stone hung on her neck. As it sat there elegantly, following her every action, those lucky ones that caught a glimpse of the gently moving icy blue, could not bear to avert their gazes from it.
Su Jishi glanced at her aloof and noble self and suddenly couldn’t distinguish who was standing in front of the mirror.
Was it Su Jishi… or Su Jin in front right now?
A hundred days ago, she was still a poor student digging around in the geology park with a compass. But right now, she was standing at the peak and chatting casually with the top figures within the entertainment circle.
When the worlds of two different people overlapped, would it merge or collide?
She believed that Su Jin had also asked the same question before.
“Sister Su, we need to go!” Xiao Xia’s happy and chatty voice rang like a sparrow. “If we leave any time later, Cinderella won’t make it to the ball!”
Cinderella?
Su Jishi smiled splendidly and touched her non-existent tear mole. Cinderella became the Princess. That’s her indeed!

The V Fashion’s Grand Fashion Gala was being held at the capital’s most famous arts location.
This location wasn’t far from Su Jin’s company and it was less than eight kilometers going straight from the company. It was adjacent to the business district and there was a lot of traffic during the rush hour. Fang Xie was afraid of being late so he especially left two hours in advance.
The van got on the main road and at 50mph, it steadily drove towards the location.
“Quickly look, quickly look!” Suddenly, Xiao Xia excitedly pointed at a metal-gray van in front and said, “That’s Film Emperor, Jiang Zicheng’s car!”
Su Jishi was confused. “… Who?”
Fang Xie looked in that direction, nodded and said, “It is indeed.”
Su Jishi asked confusedly, “Do you guys have X-ray vision? They didn’t even get out of the van and you’re able to tell who’s inside already?”
Xiao Xia said proudly, “What’s difficult about this? The big shots that can attend the ceremony are limited. It’s very simple to memorize the model of the cars and their plate number!”
Su Jishi clapped her hands and said, “You must feel wronged to stay an artist’s assistant. You would be better off being the paparazzi.”
In the next half hour, Xiao Xia’s eyes were like flashlights sweeping past the road. She then hurriedly named a countless artists. Su Jishi knew zilch about the entertainment circle, so the information went through one ear and out the other. She murmured and followed along, but didn’t take it to her heart.
As the destination got closer and closer, Su Jishi finally heard a familiar name from Xiao Xia’s mouth.
“This is bad luck.” Xiao Xia’s eyes were ablaze and although separated by a window, she stared angrily at the champagne-colored van driving in with them. “How come we met Xu Yadan here?”
A-Shan was quick with the news and hurriedly shared the gossip. “I heard it in the dressing room that Xu Yadan obtained a sponsor’s invitation. V Fashion didn’t even send her an invitation!”
“Damn, she’s out too quick!”
At this time, the car window of the champagne-colored van suddenly dropped and it revealed a heavy-makeup face. Xu Yadan had a fresh and pretty face, but because she was preparing to change her style, her team specially applied heavy makeup to make her appear more mature and stunning. Although she was beautiful, they had overdone it, and it lost the original natural feel.
Su Jishi also dropped the car window.
Xu Yadan smiled and said, “What a coincidence. I can actually meet Teacher Su here.”
Su Jishi also smiled and said, “Yes. If I didn’t come, how is Teacher Xu going to take my spotlight?”
Xu Yadan was speechless.
What a coincidence!
Today, Xu Yadan also chose a blue evening gown and through the half-revealed and half-concealed car window, Su Jishi was only able to see the top half of her body. She had a brave and sexy style. It must be the work of her team.
The two didn’t even have a “fake sister” relationship. It was less than that. Taking the opportunity of the traffic jam, they gazed at each other for a while before raising the car window at the same time.
Su Jishi had the driver quickly get rid of the other van. Though it was a useless move since it was the rush hour and all the cars were stuck on the road. The two cars couldn’t budge at all, and the furthest distance away from each other was only less than five meters.
Watching as time passed each second, the van only moved dozens of meters from its original spot. Fang Xie was getting anxious, his phone was ringing nonstop.
