Chapter 455

The annual fundraising banquet of the "Jiangdong Charity Foundation" arrived as scheduled.

Shen Jingjing chose a moon-white cheongsam and a handmade cloth handbag.

"Mom, aren't you going to match it with some jewelry? I remember you like pearls best when wearing a cheongsam." Shen Ci asked, looking at her mother in the mirror.

Shen Jingjing looked at herself in the mirror and felt it was just right: "Charity banquet, better not dress up all bejeweled. This is quite good."

Elegant but not high-profile.

Hearing this, Shen Ci also took off the necklace from her neck: "Mom is right, then I won't wear it either."

After the mother and daughter finished changing, the car sent by the Jiangdong Group to pick them up had long been waiting outside the door.

The event was held at the "Huadu Building." At this moment, the scene was already crowded with media, and the red carpet was also shining with stars. Not only were well-known entrepreneurs present, but many celebrities from the entertainment industry were also invited to support.

The car pulled slowly to the entrance of the red carpet, but the car door didn't open for a long time.

Shen Jingjing leaned toward the car window, and was startled when she saw the scene outside: "So many people!"

Shen Ci held her mother's hand gently and comforted her: "The formation for this kind of event is always big. Don't be nervous, I'll stay by your side the whole time."

Shen Jingjing nodded; when in Rome, do as the Romans do.

"The red carpet has a rhythm. We have to wait for the people in front to walk to the designated position before we can get out of the car." Shen Ci explained.

Shen Jingjing nodded again. Soon the car door opened, and the reporters, regardless of whether they recognized them or not, had their spotlights and flashes shooting over, causing Shen Jingjing, who had no experience, to instinctively turn her head and squint her eyes.

"Mom, hold onto me, just smile."

Although Shen Ci didn't have such experience either, she had rich experience in dealing with grand occasions. It was just a bunch of lenses; she knew she was a beauty, so she wasn't afraid at all.

With a straight posture, a charming smile, and every gesture and glance, she had already attracted all the lenses.

The reporters who didn't know the situation asked each other while shooting.

"Who is this beauty?"

"Don't know. Is she a newly debuted actress?"

"So beautiful, she looks good no matter how you shoot her."

Shen Ci cooperated with her mother to remove the originally brilliant jewelry from her body. Instead, this plain outfit highlighted her stunning beauty 100% as the focus, and nothing could steal the limelight from her face.

It was just... hard beauty!

After walking a few steps, Shen Jingjing also adapted to these flashing lenses. Led by her daughter, she also raised a calm and confident smile. Her exquisite figure was perfectly outlined by the cheongsam, becoming a different kind of scenery on the red carpet tonight.

Shen Ci originally intended to take her mother directly to the signature board. After all, she wasn't a big star, nor was she a very well-known entrepreneur; these reporters shouldn't recognize her.

As a result, just as she reached the center of the red carpet, a reporter saw that she didn't stop or look at the lens at all, and couldn't help but shout: "Beauty, look here!"

"Behind, beauty, look back!"

Seeing these reporters waving and signaling to her loudly, Shen Ci cooperated and stopped. The image of female stars taking photos on the red carpet flashed in her mind, and she looked back, smiled, and tossed her hair at the lens.

Every movement was small in amplitude, but her beauty was captured by the lens one by one.

"Sister Kuan, what are you looking at?"

In the car behind, Sister Kuan and Ji Chuhe were also waiting to get on the red carpet. Sister Kuan leaned against the car window, looking at the shining Shen Ci on the red carpet.

"It's a pity not to be a star with such outstanding conditions."

Ji Chuhe was even more confused and leaned over to look at the red carpet: "Sister Kuan, if you like her, just sign her. Is there anyone you can't sign?"

Sister Kuan laughed upon hearing this and looked at Ji Chuhe: "This person could acquire "Jin Xiao" with a wave of her hand. You want me to sign her? I don't have that much ability."

"Huh?" Ji Chuhe was shocked upon hearing this, thinking she had misread, and quickly looked carefully again: "Are we talking about the same person? Are you talking about the sister wearing the cheongsam?"

"No, the young and beautiful girl." Sister Kuan corrected, also feeling it was time to tell Chuhe: "She is the sister behind A-Li. I've always wanted to introduce you to her, but she has never come to the cocktail parties after the company events. I didn't expect to meet her here today."

"A-Li's sister?"

Ji Chuhe reacted and couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her mouth: "So the person behind A-Li is her own sister?"

Sister Kuan raised an eyebrow: "The drama you are cooperating on now, Shen Ci is also the largest investor. Why did I insist on you acting in it? Because Shen Ci named you to play the lead role!"

"Why not let A-Li play the lead role?" Ji Chuhe was confused.

A meaningful smile appeared on Sister Kuan's face: "Because A-Li wants to play the second lead. Her sister investing in film and television isn't to make A-Li famous, but so A-Li can act in whatever she wants."

"Haven't you always wanted to change tracks? My worry is that no one will back you up. Although "Jin Xiao" has produced quite a few hit dramas in the industry, the company can't do for you what Shen Ci does for A-Li. If you flop two dramas, your status and resources will plummet. But A-Li doesn't care about these, and her sister doesn't care either."

"Today is an opportunity. You have a good relationship with A-Li. If you can get to know Shen Ci, as a big investor, good resources will definitely tilt toward you in the future."

Ji Chuhe snapped out of it, but was a bit hesitant: "Sister Kuan, this purpose is too strong. I don't want to use my relationship with A-Li."

"Get to know her first, and then try to put aside the relationship with A-Li and become friends with her." Sister Kuan patted Ji Chuhe's hand. Just then, the car door was opened: "Let's go, it's our turn."

Shen Ci took her mother to the signature board, used the pen handed over by the beautiful emcee to sign her name, and then took a photo with the charity foundation's logo behind her.

At this moment, there was a mountain-shaking commotion at the scene, which startled Shen Jingjing.

"Ji Chuhe!"

"Chuhe, look at me, look at me!"

"Chuhe, walk slowly, look back at our side!"

Shen Jingjing looked at her daughter in surprise. Shen Ci just smiled faintly: "Top-tier actress in the entertainment industry, A-Li's recent partner. You know that."

"Is that the very beautiful Ji Chuhe?"

Shen Ci nodded and led her mother to the event banquet hall under the guidance of the staff.

As the indoor air conditioning blew, Shen Jingjing couldn't help but take a deep breath and whispered to her daughter: "I was so nervous my armpits are wet."

Just as she finished speaking, Jiang Yuanliang's voice followed: "A-Ci, Ms. Shen!"

He was still in high spirits, with an elegant temperament, and his straight suit was only embellished with two pure gold cufflinks.

Beside him was a young and beautiful female companion, also the girl he met during his last blind date, named Ni Man.
