A number of media outlets that had originally planned to interview Corliss were eager to get involved, and some even ran away in their haste.

The actress Mu Weiwei, who has starred in films with billions in box office revenue, has been out of the public eye for the past few years. It was only recently, when she was taken away by the president of the Fu Group at a shopping mall, that their relationship was exposed.

The incident caused a huge uproar online and in major news outlets, but the two have never offered any explanation to the public.

It's rare to see Mu Weiwei in person these past two years, so the fact that the two of them appeared together at the Tokyo Film Festival today is an extremely rare opportunity.

Compared to interviews about movies, interviews about the romance between a billion-dollar actress and China's top tycoon are clearly more newsworthy.

Seeing that someone had already rushed to grab the news, the other media outlets also followed suit.

Only a few media outlets that had been contacted by the film crews remained, but they seemed somewhat disheartened and unwilling to give up.

The biggest news at this year's Tokyo International Film Festival was definitely not who won an award, but the fact that President Fu and actress Mu Weiwei, who has starred in films worth billions, attended the festival together.

As Corliss watched Gu Weiwei walk the red carpet on television, her eyes betrayed her jealousy and resentment.

She tried every possible way to get her hands on the "Muse's" latest design, but it ended up being worn by her.

On the red carpet, Gu Weiwei walked gracefully down the aisle with Fu Hanzheng in her arms, smiling gently at the group of photographers.

Fu Hanzheng glanced at her, a slight smile appearing on his usually cold face.

Gu Weiwei wore a long nude pink organza embroidered dress. Although it did not reveal her chest, legs, or even arms, its exquisite design and color made her look even more charming and elegant.

Fu Hanzheng was wearing a bespoke black suit, and unusually today he wasn't wearing a tie, but a bow tie.

After a photographer took the picture, he praised it loudly.

"Mu Weiwei, you look so beautiful today!"

Even bolder individuals made demands.

"Mu Weiwei, could you kiss President Fu so we can take a picture?"

Gu Weiwei's lips twitched slightly; this request was excessive.

She glanced at Fu Hanzheng, still hesitating whether to kiss him, but Fu Hanzheng had already kissed her first.

However, because it was in front of the camera, the kiss was gentle and restrained.

Photographers snapped photos, capturing this rare moment.

Gu Weiwei's face flushed, and she clung to Fu Hanzheng, urging him on.

"Let's go in."

However, after taking only two steps, the photographer on the other side called them to face the other side.

So, what was originally intended as a two- or three-minute stop on the red carpet turned into a six-minute ordeal due to the photographers repeatedly stopping them to take pictures.

I thought I could finally relax after passing the red carpet area, but as soon as I entered the venue, I was surrounded by the media who were waiting at the entrance.

"Mu Weiwei, there are rumors online that you got your position through Mr. Fu's underhanded tactics. Is that true?"

Before Gu Weiwei could respond, Fu Hanzheng coldly glanced at the reporter who had asked the question.

Another reporter followed up with a question, "Mu Weiwei, what is your relationship with President Fu?"

Before Gu Weiwei could answer, Fu Hanzheng had already answered for her.

"Marital relationship".

"Are you two already married?"

Fu Hanzheng stretched out his left arm and put his arm around Gu Weiwei as he spoke.

We've been married for almost three years.

Gu Weiwei turned her head to look at him and called out to remind him.

"They are asking me questions, so don't answer them first."

Fu Hanzheng glanced at the reporters around him, then obediently shut his mouth and stopped talking.

"Mu Weiwei, are you here to attend the film festival to prepare for a comeback and film a new project?"

Gu Weiwei smiled politely, "It's uncertain for now. The two children are still young and quite clingy. I can't leave them alone right now."

"Mu Weiwei, may I ask why you were pulled into Mr. Fu's car at the mall last time?"

Gu Weiwei chuckled awkwardly, trying to figure out how to answer, when Fu Hanzheng interrupted with another question.

"She ran away from home because of disagreements over the child's education."
