The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life-Chapter 461 - 207 I Was Here_2

Under Zhou Wang’s guidance, Endme walked forward with him.

Zhou Wang needed no introduction, and although Endme’s gown wasn’t Hermes, it was evidently a meticulously designed custom piece, perfectly fitting her figure. The cutouts showcased her lovely shoulders and slender waist exquisitely while cleverly concealing her less flattering features.

Walking side by side, the two indeed made a striking couple.

At this moment, the initially surprised reporters quickly regained their composure, with many of them recognizing Endme right away.

"Endme, weren’t you signed with Star Culture? Why are you appearing at the Wuyou Media event?"

"So are the rumors of your contract termination true? Some say it was because you refused the unspoken rules of Star Culture’s boss, is that true..."

"What do you think about the photos of your boyfriend Chen He allegedly being taken care of by a rich woman?"

"Xixi, is this your new boyfriend next to you, or a red carpet partner arranged by the company..."

Endme only felt a buzzing noise in her ears; she could barely make out what the reporters were asking.

Originally, she had an interview scheduled to complement her signing publicity, but both the scene and script were fixed. She never anticipated facing so many reporters all at once... This was supposed to be the privilege of the leading talents within the company.

She couldn’t even distinguish which media outlet was the "familiar face" designated by the company.

Involuntarily, Endme tightened her grip on Zhou Wang’s hand, feeling Zhou Wang’s slight response. At that moment, she realized that the sense of peace she felt earlier wasn’t from the Rolls Royce.

It was... from the man beside her.

Because that feeling returned, her tension eased rapidly, and subconsciously, Endme glanced up at Zhou Wang beside her.

Click!

...

At 7:28, a gorgeously dressed Endme successfully stepped onto the red carpet.

Since the order and timing for the red carpet walk were predetermined, Zhou Wang, without any prior notice, although somewhat curious, ultimately did not join the hustle.

Once free from the reporters’ entanglement, Zhou Wang, standing in the audience area, watched with interest as Endme walked through the red carpet surrounded by flashing lights. Suddenly, a somewhat surprised voice came from beside him:

"Zhou Wang, is it really you!"

He turned his head to see Hua Suisui and Wang Xiaoxiao arriving hand in hand.

Both girls were in gowns, though they were quite ordinary styles—not plain yet not astonishing. Zhou Wang frowned unthinkingly at his first glance at Hua Suisui, feeling some confusion.

Hua Suisui and Wang Xiaoxiao reacted differently as well. Wang Xiaoxiao’s eyes were slightly red, possibly from crying, while Hua Suisui’s face didn’t look too pleased. However, upon seeing Zhou Wang, joy spread across her pretty face instantly.

Wang Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, averted her gaze momentarily, then forced a smile at Zhou Wang after seemingly thinking of something.

"I saw you and Xixi getting off the Rolls Royce from afar, and I thought I was seeing things. Why... why are you with Xixi?"

Hua Suisui pretended to ask indifferently with a smile.

Although their intimate encounter last time had ended abruptly due to her own contradiction and Wang Xiaoxiao’s unexpected interruption, Hua Suisui still felt that her relationship with Zhou Wang had gotten closer...

At least, it had escalated to a somewhat ambiguous level, right?

After all, they had carefully examined each other’s appearance, albeit not yet feeling the warmth inside.

So seeing Zhou Wang arrive with Endme and holding hands under the camera, Hua Suisui’s heart felt a twinge of bitterness.

"I ran into her on the road, and when her boyfriend was stopped by traffic police, I saw she was going to be late, so I brought her along."

Zhou Wang chuckled as he glanced at Hua Suisui, then added with a smile, "There’s nothing between us."

"Ah, why are you explaining this to me? I obviously know you can’t have anything with her, after all, she has Chen He, hehe..."

Despite the reproachful tone, Hua Suisui’s mouth corners were evidently hard to hold down.

"Have you guys finished walking the red carpet, then? Doesn’t the waiting area seem not to be on this side?"

Zhou Wang finally asked curiously.

The red carpet order, except for the essential lead and finale guests, generally followed the number of fans, and Wang Xiaoxiao and Hua Suisui’s fan numbers were similar to Endme’s, so they should have been together.

"No, our turn was after Xixi, but we’re not walking the red carpet anymore..."

Mentioning this, Hua Suisui’s face grew somewhat dim, and she shook her head, saying.

"What happened?"

Zhou Wang raised an eyebrow, "And didn’t the company get a sponsorship from Hermes? How come it looks like you’re wearing dresses that you found yourselves..."

"Ah, you know about that too?"

Hua Suisui raised her head in surprise, "We only received the company’s notice this afternoon. Everyone was thrilled beyond words—Hermes dresses! Doesn’t that mean we’re indirectly representing Hermes, hehe..."

Hua Suisui smiled initially but then pursed her lips saying, "But we later found out that not everyone got it, it depended on the size fitting. Originally, Xiaoxiao and I got notified, but the quota went missing."

"The quota went missing? What do you mean?"

Zhou Wang asked with a frown.

"Anyway, it’s gone. Maybe the company thought someone else suited those two dresses better."

Hua Suisui barely managed a smile.

"I’m sorry, Suisui, it’s all because I offended Director Zheng, implicating you as well. If you hadn’t suggested we’d walk the red carpet together..."
