Sheng Tang was at the premiere of "Who’s Afraid in the Workplace".

The premiere started at eight o’clock in the evening.

She was wearing that off-white tulle dress, posing in front of the signature board on the red carpet.

Her outfit today was refreshing and pure, with none of Zhao Beibei’s sultriness.

She stood with Wen Yu and William, being interviewed briefly before the premiere.

After the interview, the movie officially premiered.

Besides film critics and media reporters, Sheng Tang’s fans were also at the premiere today.

Or rather, most of them were her fans. They were very enthusiastic, with the entire venue filled with cheers for Sheng Tang.

"It looks like Tangtang is very popular," the host teased, "Are you all excited about Tangtang’s role?"

"Excited!" The voices almost broke the auditorium.

Sheng Tang smiled.

The premiere officially began.

In the first few minutes of the movie, the pace was very fast. Although there weren’t many dialogues, the montage technique simply showcased the lives of the two main female characters: Qi Qi was sending out job applications, and Zhao Beibei was exercising and dieting; Qi Qi started as a junior employee, while Zhao Beibei was on the runway.

The visuals were incredibly gorgeous, with Sheng Tang and Wen Yu changing countless outfits, giving the audience excellent visual enjoyment.

Then, with William’s appearance, Sheng Tang’s Zhao Beibei and Wen Yu’s Qi Qi finally met.

The movie moved away from a straightforward narrative and used lavish scenes to present the two main female characters together to the audience.

Judging by the audience’s focused reaction, this technique worked very well.

At this moment, Sheng Tang’s assistant’s phone vibrated.

She went out to take the call and then came back, pushing her way to Sheng Tang’s side, ignoring the other main characters’ glares.

Ai’ai whispered in Sheng Tang’s ear.

Sheng Tang’s face slightly changed after hearing a few words, and she followed Ai’ai out of the screening room.

When she goes on stage, she gives her phone to Ai’ai for safekeeping.

The phone had rung several times, quite urgently, and Ai’ai saw the caller ID labeled "Brother Lin Chuan (allowed to answer)."

On Sheng Tang’s phone, some contacts were labeled as must-answer, such as her parents. Ai’ai had to answer them whenever they called; some were marked as allowed-to-answer, such as her friends, Gu Jiahui, and Cheng Lichuan, and Ke Fei; some had no markers and could be answered at Ai’ai’s discretion.

After answering, Ai’ai’s expression wasn’t good, interrupting Sheng Tang from watching the movie.

Sheng Tang listened to the call with a serious face.

"...Did you call the police?" she asked Cheng Lichuan.

Cheng Lichuan was out of town.

He had already graduated with a Ph.D., stayed on to teach, and was traveling with friends during the summer break. He had not been home for the past few days.

He was already panicked when he received a strange call.

"I don’t know the specifics yet. I heard it’s at Building B, 15th floor of the Ninth Hospital," Cheng Lichuan said, "Can you find time to visit him?"

"I’ll send Ai’ai first," Sheng Tang said, "I’m still tied up here with this promotional event. I can only leave after it’s over."

Right now, the auditorium was filled with media reporters, professional critics, and fans. Most of them had come specially because of the previous video incident.

If she left in the middle, the journalists would criticize her sharply, her reputation would suffer, and fans might think she was unprofessional.

Sheng Tang was incredibly anxious but truly couldn’t leave.

She could only ask Ai’ai to quickly book the next flight back to S City and go check on Gu Jiahui.

After hanging up on Cheng Lichuan, Sheng Tang called Gu Jiahui’s secretary to ask if he was aware of the situation.

"I have no idea." The secretary was startled, "Where is President Gu?"
