Next to the banquet hall is a simple rest area.
Compared to the dazzling extravagance of the main hall, the lounge where the celebrity assistants were crammed together appeared particularly cramped and simple.
A few folding tables, a few plastic stools, and the air was filled with the smell of takeout food.
The assistants either hurriedly ate a few bites of food or whispered about their respective idols' schedules.
Su Qianqian sat quietly on a plastic stool in the corner.
She lowered her head slightly, and her thick black-rimmed glasses slipped down her nose a little.
Others assumed she was resting, unaware that she was watching everything happening in the main hall through the shared vision of System 007.
The camera focuses on the two men with powerful presences.
Gu Chengyu put down the champagne, drank a glass of whiskey, and as the strong liquor went down his throat, a distinct dryness appeared between his brows and eyes.
He unbuttoned another button on his shirt.

Gu Chengyu walked through the elegantly dressed crowd and approached Lin Shu, who was talking to someone.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he grabbed Lin Shu's wrist with such force that she couldn't break free, and dragged her towards the relatively quiet backstage passage, his steps both forceful and unsteady from alcohol.
"Young Master Gu! What are you doing? Let me go!" Lin Shu's exclamation was drowned out by the music and voices.

"Bang!" Lin Shu used all her strength to break free from Gu Chengyu's wrist.
