Chapter 391: Chapter 396 The Woman by His Side (3)

Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning had left, but Jiang Xuanqi and Lu Jiayuan, who remained at the scene, were still under a barrage of bombardments! Especially Jiang Xuanqi, who at this moment truly resembled the image of a tragic heroine, had already been escorted away by her bodyguards and agent.

It was Lu Jiayuan who, when asked about Yu Zexiao, answered with a slight smile, "Him and his assistant? No, Zexiao is quite discerning."

Even though on the surface it seemed like he was demeaning Jian Anning as "not qualified enough", in reality, every word was a comment on Yu Zexiao’s pickiness and capriciousness!

------------------------------------

A good old Shangcheng Film Festival, which was originally an opportunity for all the big stars to dress up and show off their great figures, turned into a commotion due to Yu Zexiao, with all the attention focused on him!

There was no helping it; Yu Zexiao was the kind of person who would attract a horde of media even for a simple trip to the bathroom.

However, Yu Zexiao still wasn’t too happy.

Because his idol—and also Jian Anning’s idol in her heart, piano master John Gruber, couldn’t attend the festival due to health reasons.

The invitees to the festival included actors, directors, artists, prominent entertainers, hosts, people from the performing arts and fashion industry, and numerous media reporters.

The incident with Yu Zexiao outside had clearly caught everyone’s attention. Although these reporters didn’t dare to mob and block Yu Zexiao at such a grand film festival, they were still looking for opportunities to approach him and discreetly fish for some news.

After the tedious opening ceremony, Yu Zexiao was immediately surrounded by a group of female stars and reporters.

Tall and handsome, meticulously groomed, and young, Yu Zexiao stood out even among the dazzling stars. Although he was usually arrogant and capricious, he was no fool; he almost never lost his temper in such settings. Even when he was visibly annoyed by the crowd of women, he wouldn’t just turn and leave, at most he would frown slightly.

This exactly showed that although Yu Zexiao had such a peculiar temper, none of the high-level people in the circle spoke ill of him. The media unilaterally "sang praises" of his looks, his singing voice, his outstanding family background, and even if he occasionally threw a small tantrum, his fans would find it completely justifiable.

When Jian Anning came out of the restroom, what she saw was this exact scene.

She hesitated for a moment, not joining the commotion. Turning around, she was about to wait for him in a corner, when several women suddenly surrounded her.

The one leading them was a woman with slanting eyebrows extending into her temples and slightly upward tilted eyes at the corners, giving her a somewhat arrogant look. Jian Anning recognized this woman, always playing the role of the pitiable primetime drama heroine who is mistreated by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law yet wholeheartedly devoted to her husband’s family. Because of her delicate features and her ability to cry on cue, she was much loved by a broad audience of middle-aged and older women.

——However, privately, it was said she was very arrogant. Judging by her flamboyant makeup and haughty expression at this moment, the rumors were indeed true.

Uh, normal updates will resume tomorrow, and additional updates for Children’s Day and Dragon Boat Festival~~ Sorry, sorry
