Capítulo 1546: Chapter 1547: Go in and wait

“That’s true.”

“If he’s really waiting for Mr. Li, we’re in for a treat. I’ve seen him from a distance once, so handsome. I’ve never seen a man that handsome, way more handsome than any male celebrity.”

“You can’t compare; he’s from a financial conglomerate.”

“I don’t care about his status. I’m just a simple face-value fan. Anyway, he’s handsome, so handsome it makes my knees weak!”

After gossiping quietly, the girls shifted their focus to how handsome the man was, whispering and chatting away.

Chu Xi was far away from them, unable to hear them gossiping about her, and didn’t care whether they did or not.

She stood at the door, straining her eyes as she watched vehicle after vehicle go by outside, none of which were the one she was waiting for.

“What’s going on?” She stood for over ten minutes, her heels starting to ache, so she lifted them slightly with an impatient expression.

The assistant, quite perceptive, immediately had a chair brought over, “Xi, sit down and wait.”

Chu Xi glanced at the chair but didn’t sit down, saying with a not-so-good expression, “I don’t need it. Stop showing off your cleverness all day; I’m not sitting, have it taken away.”

She had managed to find an opportunity to invite Jiang Chenyue to watch her work, so what would sitting in a chair by the door waiting look like? She wanted Jiang Chenyue to see her intention of standing at the door to greet him; otherwise, she might as well have stayed in the lounge, so what’s the point of coming out?

This idiot thought they were clever, bringing her a chair, thinking they’re smart; if not a fool, what are they?

The sun in the Capital City was blazing fiercely, the cicadas sang tirelessly from the treetops, and the autumn heat was even higher than summer’s, baking the entire city.

Chu Xi was gradually being exposed to the sun, sweating, her exquisite foundation getting wet, her eye makeup starting to smudge with gray shadows, looking quite disheveled.

The assistant held an umbrella for her and couldn’t help but persuade her again, “Xi, the sun is too strong outside; if this continues, your skin will tan. Why don’t you go inside, and I’ll wait here for you.”

Chu Xi didn’t dare touch around her eyes, afraid of smudging her eyeliner. She looked at her phone, wanting to check the time, her face full of impatience.

Suddenly, her gaze was fixed on a piece of news.

— “Celebrities Gather, ‘Little Luck’ Press Conference Brimming with Guests.”

She clicked on it and immediately saw Qi Yue, Qi Siyao, Chen Yang, You Kun, and others. Besides the popular young idols, there were also veteran actors like Jiang Xinyue, Xiao Kai, Wu Jun present. But she also saw Lin Zhiya and a large group of high-status socialite ladies attending. One low-key figure caught her attention; her eyes narrowed like pins as she stared fiercely at her phone, enlarging that picture again and again until the face in the photo became blurry. Only then did she bite her lip, her face turning livid as she looked at the person above, almost grinding her silver teeth to bits.

The person in the photo was captured poorly due to the resolution, so blurry that even the features couldn’t be discerned. Yet in this lousy resolution, the person’s aura couldn’t be obscured; the impression of beauty was striking even without clear features.

It could only be Jiang Chenyue, no one else!

Chu Xi’s temples throbbed violently, her expression frightening the assistant beside her. The assistant covered their mouth, cautiously asking, “Xi, what’s wrong? What did you see?”

He leaned over to sneak a peek, but couldn’t make any sense of it. Seeing the sun grow more scorching, he brought up the old suggestion, “Look, your cheek is all sunburned; let’s go inside and wait.”
