The number of people arriving at the wrap-up party is increasing;
Jiang Yichen sat calmly at the main table, greeting people who came to chat from time to time.
Zhao Lin sat quietly aside, observing the expressions of everyone around her, fearing that some unexpected people would break in. After all, except Jiang Yichen, all the actors and artists would be present today. In addition, due to the previous publicity for this wrap-up party, many media reporters were stationed at the door, and it was inevitable that there would be some unidentified people mixed in with the noisy crowd.
Fortunately, they arrived early enough, and with Chongguang's support, they were not blocked by the crowd at the door; but the artists who came in from the back door were not so lucky. They were all blocked outside for interviews and could only escape with the escort of bodyguards.
As people took their seats, there were fewer and fewer empty seats in the hall, but more than half of the seats at the main table were still vacant.
Chongguang walked uneasily to Jiang Yichen, bent down, and asked in a humble tone:
"Yi Chen, the banquet is about to begin. Why don't you ask Miss Luo Shen when they can come over?"
This sincere attitude made the people around him gasp. Young Master Chongguang, who used to be arrogant and thought he was superior, had never spoken to anyone in such a tone.
Because of the popularity of the drama due to its early exposure, even the shareholders of Guangshang Media have recently been very complimentary about the young master who has just taken over the company's business. Seeing him like this, Shunli was also very curious about the few people who were not present. However, the nameplate on the table only said "mysterious guest" and did not reveal any other specific information.
"It should be soon. She just told me she's on the way!"
Facing Chongguang's attitude, Jiang Yichen didn't think there was anything wrong. He drank a sip of the soda water handed to him by Zhao Lin and responded calmly.
Before they came, Jiang Luoning had already told him that they would arrive before the banquet started. As for the reason, she did not explain in detail. She also specifically asked him to arrive early so that he could avoid media interviews. She also said mysteriously that there would be a good show tonight and he must not miss it.
As for the protagonist of this drama, Jiang Yichen could guess it without any explanation, but he didn't care now. As long as the little girl had fun, he didn't know whether the first drama he had worked hard to shoot for several months could be released as scheduled.
After learning the accurate information, Master Chongguang showed a look of joy. He then ordered the bodyguards to ensure the safety of the venue and not to let any accidents happen. He also counted the remaining seats.
With Jiang Luoning and the other two, plus the three seats that Wilding had asked to be left, and Joanna, the head of AX Group in Country A, there were exactly seven empty seats; only then did they sit down with peace of mind.
Amy was now behind the man, staring at Young Master Chongguang's every move. Seeing that his expression had relaxed, she mustered up the courage to step forward.
"Shongguang, my seat has been assigned to the table next to the artists. I'm not very familiar with them. Can I sit next to you?"
Standing next to the man, she lowered her voice and whispered. She really didn't want others to hear such an awkward conversation.
Before the man could reply, Amy took the initiative and sat down directly, but Chongguang's face darkened visibly.
"Amy, today's occasion won't tolerate your nonsense. Go back to your seat! You can't afford to offend anyone at this table!"
"Then why is Yichen's assistant even here? There's clearly a separate seat for the assistant over there!"
Seeing that Chongguang had no intention of giving in, Amy directed her spearhead at Zhao Lin beside Jiang Yichen. She didn't know that those who had not yet arrived were all from society, but the man had already spoken, so she didn't dare to attack them easily.
Zhao Lin had been on high alert since Amy came over, fearing that it would cause trouble for Jiang Yichen, but she didn't expect that the blame would fall on her in the end.
According to past practice, as a junior assistant, it was indeed impossible for her to sit at the main table, but thinking of Jiang Luoning's previous instructions to her, she did not want to leave in silence this time.
But before the girl could say anything, Jiang Yichen couldn't sit still anymore. Hearing Amy's contempt for Zhao Lin made him very upset. He didn't care at all about the public situation and responded directly, not giving anyone face at all.
"Ms. Screenwriter, Linlin is more than just an assistant to me. If you feel it's inappropriate for her to sit here, how about I give you my position?"
Obviously, Amy didn't expect Jiang Yichen to speak suddenly, and you didn't think that as an artist he would be so ruthless; Zhao Lin's face was also full of surprise at this moment, but in Amy's eyes, this surprise was a humiliation to her, as if he was laughing at her.
Jiang Yichen did not try to conceal the sound of his argument, so the people around him could hear it clearly. Everyone was whispering about this sudden change, and the banquet was instantly plunged into noise.
When Jiang Luoning walked to the door, he saw Amy glaring at Zhao Lin with an unwilling look on her face, and the girl was not to be outdone. She stared straight at the woman's unfriendly eyes without any fear at all.
Everyone who came with Jiang Luoning noticed the tense atmosphere, but they had just come down from the top floor and didn't know what had happened in the past few minutes. However, Wilding's intuition told him that Amy was causing trouble again.
He glanced at the little girl and saw that her expression didn't change much, so he took the initiative to say something jokingly: "What a lively scene! What happened?"
Hearing the voice he had been waiting for, Chongguang seemed to have completely forgotten the unpleasantness that had just happened and immediately stood up to greet everyone.
"Lord Wilding, Miss Luoshen, Mr. Fu... Welcome everyone! The screenwriter just didn't know better, and there was a little unpleasantness. It won't affect anything! Let's go take our seats first!"
