Chapter 445 The Couple’s Unexpected Public Appearance!
The star-studded red carpet event continued.
In front of the signing wall, Tang Jian waved at her fans and the phones and cameras pointing at them. She had been in the entertainment circle for two years now, but she had never been to an event with so many media and reporters like this.
"Mr. He, Miss Tang, please come on the stage so we can give you a short interview before you go inside," the host smilingly invited them to the podium. As soon as the two stood on the stage with him, he took the opportunity to ask them a question, "I'm sure everyone is as surprised as I am tonight. But may we ask why are you two here tonight?"
He Gui looked at the host with a cold expression. He was about to answer his question, however, Tang Jian stepped in first and replied, "I pestered Auntie He to allow me to walk on the red carpet with him. It's quite funny since he didn't want to appear tonight, but it seems that his mind changed and decided to come after all."
Standing on her side, He Gui furrowed his brows and moved his eyes to glare at her. Immediately after receiving his gaze, she flinched out of fear and shame. But Tang Jian didn't want to waste this opportunity to tie He Gui to her side. Even if she would not end up marrying He Gui, everyone should remember in their heads that she was still the He family's favorite daughter-in-law in their hearts!
Look, even He Gui's mother convinced him to walk down the red carpet with her.
"Ahem, is that so? That is quite surprising. But we're glad to have you at the Night Gala of Stars, Tang Jian!" The host was embarrassed on her behalf. He could obviously tell that Tang Jian was forcing herself on He Gui.
The host didn't dare turn his head to look at He Gui for fear of seeing that dark and ugly expression on his face. He didn't want to die on live TV!
It was so obvious that Tang Jian was still having hopes in them getting together. But it was also plain to see that He Gui didn't want her at all! Besides, aren't they still together with their respective partners? Tang Jian's intentions are really unsightly.
As expected, the crowd in front of the stage shut up for a few seconds. The fans who came to support her couldn't raise their banner or LED signs. They couldn't believe that the actress they wanted to support was actually so shameless!
The host wanted to leave the stage, but he couldn't do it because he still needed to ask the question everyone was curious about for a few days now.
"Mr. He, welcome to the All-Star Night Gala. You look more handsome and wonderful tonight. Although I want to ask where you got your coat, that is not what we all are curious about. Can you please tell us about the rumor that happened a few days ago?"
Since it was not a question directed at her, Tang Jian gave up the microphone to He Gui, very reluctantly. She badly wanted to answer this question, but it was not right for her to butt in.
He Gui, however, didn't take the microphone in her hand. Because of this, the host had to use his own microphone to let He Gui talk.
He Gui: "It was nothing but two people meeting in front of an establishment. I am acquainted with Miss Ran and because of the trouble I created in front of the establishment, I felt bad to have her waiting so I walked with her so she could pass. However, it seems that I have caused her a lot of trouble."
He turned to where the camera captured his face and slightly bowed his head in apology, "I am sorry for what happened. It was careless of me."
This level of respect he showed towards Ran Xueyi shocked everyone. For He Gui was not only the former prime minister's cousin; he was also the CEO of a company worth hundreds of millions. In contrast to his status, Ran Xueyi, who is just an A-list veteran actress, He Gui was being too polite towards her.
His gesture to bow his head to the camera, even if it was just a little bit, was still stuck in their minds. Isn't that a bit too much?
But He Gui didn't think it was too much.
On the contrary, he wanted to meet Ran Xueyi and formally apologize to her and ask her if she wanted anything and he will buy it if it means she would forgive him for all the troubles he caused her due to the rumors about them. She even ended up being called his 'mistress'.
Tang Jian scowled at him and wanted to tell him to stop this. He was a man of respectable family and status, how could he bow his head and apologize on national TV?
However, she was already too late. So, the only thing she could do was steal the spotlight again by placing the microphone near her lips and said, " I'm also an actress so I understand that there will always be malicious rumors thrown at us. I'm sure Miss Ran isn't the type to hold a grudge."
She meant to say that if Ran Xueyi still held a grudge against He Gui after his apology, it only shows how arrogant and ignorant Ran Xueyi could be for not knowing how to step back!
"By the way, I think we will meet her inside the venue. You can talk to her later." Tang Jian continued to say. "Isn't she here to attend the event, right?"
The host slowly, "That's right."
"You heard him? Ran Xueyi should be inside already." Tang Jian turned to He Gui and smiled sneeringly while thinking that Ran Xueyi was not on their level yet. It was obvious with the fact that she could enter first before them, the important people in the event.
The host smiled awkwardly as Tang Jian continued to target Ran Xueyi, but at this moment, he remembered a focal point. How could he forget something so important? Wasn't Ran Xueyi's time to appear on the red carpet pushed back to the last segment of the red carpet event? ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢
But at this moment, a Rolls Royce Cullinan pulled up at the head of the red carpet. Unexpectedly, the driver came out first of the expensive car wearing a deep black three-piece suit with a golden chain attached to both lapels and a handkerchief of the same color was peeking out of the chest pocket. It wrapped around his alluring body as if it was made just for him.
He was poised and confident when he rounded the car to get to the back passenger's seat door. At a glance, people could tell he was a gentleman who oozed out a regal aura in his body. But once their eyes landed on his face, they couldn't stop themselves from holding their breaths.
This man… no matter what angle they looked at, he was too handsome! He had the type of face that could do justice to the words 'drop dead gorgeous'.
He looked like a model that came straight out of a men's magazine or a painting!
"Wow…"
"Who is he?"
A lot of the fans and reporters who came there just to see a glimpse of their favorite celebrities whispered to themselves. However, due to the silence that one could even hear a pin drop, their voices sounded too clear for everyone to hear.
And just when the heat from the sudden appearance of this mysterious handsome man was not already enough for everybody to feel the excitement, a pair of slender and long legs came out first when the door to the back passenger seat opened.
Then, it slowly revealed a beautifully dressed woman.
The gorgeous man held out his hand which the woman took. The two curled their arms as they walked down the red carpet.
Everyone then could no longer keep their voice to a minimum as they screamed on top of their lungs until they were almost hoarse.
The beautiful woman turned out to be… Ran Xueyi!
The cheers didn't only belong to the celebrity fans that came to see their idols, the reporters who were on their duty to catch this historic event also screamed along with them.
They no longer cared about the importance of the lineup in the red carpet event. They couldn't even think about anything else but the couple that walked in front of them!
In their eyes and hearts, Ran Xueyi and the mysterious man both looked like a pair of ethereal beings that descended on Earth.
Hearing the cheers getting louder than anything she had ever heard, Tang Jian turned her head to see what the commotion was all about. Upon seeing who it was, Tang Jian's face turned pale.
What is the meaning of this? Isn't that Ran Xueyi?!
She couldn't comprehend why Ran Xueyi, who supposedly should have already entered the venue ahead of them due to her status as a mere A-lister actress, was actually the last one to arrive!
Wasn't she just an actress? And who is that extremely handsome man with her?
She narrowed her eyes and looked carefully.
Then, Tang Jian's heart somersaulted when she noticed that the man beside Ran Xueyi was the young master from the great Song family… Song Yu Han!
What was he doing here tonight with Ran Xueyi?!
