Xiao He immediately understood: "I'll go get you a few."
Iman looked conflicted, and finally said reluctantly, "Since you want to invite me to eat, then take less. I'm on a diet—you're the one who made me eat."
Xiao He suppressed a laugh: "Fine, I'll take the blame for you."
No wonder many agents give so many instructions to their artists before they enter; they're afraid the artists will let loose and do whatever they want inside.
Looking at the artists over there who kept stuffing things into their mouths, Xiao He inexplicably felt a sense of déjà vu, like "evil demons devouring their prey."
Being an entertainer is indeed a lucrative job, but the requirements for body management are extremely strict. It's no exaggeration to say that you can look ten sizes bigger on camera, especially for female entertainers, whose body management is even more demanding.
Xiao He only dared to give Yiman'er two pieces of pastry.
"Thanks."
Iman picked up a piece and put it in her mouth with an elegant and composed demeanor, but her speed was not slow at all. In the blink of an eye, she had finished off the two pieces of pastry on the plate.
Looking at her face again, there was no food residue left, not even a trace of lipstick; her makeup was still flawless.
Xiao He was amazed.
Is this what professional ethics are like for female celebrities?
"Would you like some too?"
Iman reminded Xiao He.
"There's still more than an hour before the awards ceremony. We'll only get inside after everyone has walked the red carpet, and the awards ceremony will take almost two hours. If you don't eat something beforehand, you'll definitely be hungry tonight."
Xiao He glanced around the scene, then nodded: "Okay."
However, Xiao He didn't dare to eat too much; he just ordered a steak to fill his stomach.
There weren't many familiar faces at the event, as most of the attendees were from the nominated and award-winning film crews. Several actors who were familiar with Xiao He were not present. So, after eating, Xiao He didn't wander around but sat and waited in the rest area with Iman'er.
Xiao He had no intention of making friends everywhere, but others did not think so.
After sitting for a while, people started coming to chat with Xiao He one after another.
Following Liu Rulan's instructions, Xiao He interacted with all the actors, some he had only met a few times and others he had never spoken to.
About half an hour later, Xiao He felt a little tired of sitting. He greeted Iman and stood up to go outside to the balcony of the hall for some fresh air.
But as soon as he stepped out, Xiao He regretted it.
The smell of smoke is overwhelming.
No wonder there aren't many people outside.
Xiao He was about to return the way he came when he heard someone call out to him, "Xiao He!"
Xiao He stopped and looked suspiciously at the man standing alone smoking in the corner of the balcony.
The man was dressed in a bespoke suit. As he smoked, he inadvertently revealed a million-dollar watch on his wrist. One of his fingers was adorned with a gemstone ring the size of a pigeon's egg. His phoenix eyes were filled with arrogance and disdain, and he looked at people with the scrutinizing air of someone in a high position, making people feel inexplicably inferior, which made Xiao He very uncomfortable.
Xiao He had already recognized who the other person was.
—Qin Yuezhang!
It really is true that "enemies are destined to meet".
Xiao He's eyes flickered, and he took the initiative to walk over, a reserved smile on his face: "Hello, Teacher Qin."
With a cigarette between his fingers and the other hand resting on the carved railing beside him, Qin Lezhang looked Xiao He up and down, slowly exhaling a puff of smoke, and said sarcastically, "So you know who I am."
Xiao He rolled his eyes inwardly.
Damn it, I hate this kind of loading.
