Huayu 2015, the Artist of Light and Shadow

Chapter 179, "A Bloodbath Triggered by a Bowl of Plain Congee," a sobering lesson! Lost 50 followers in two hours!

"Xiaomeng, what path do you want to take? Or, if you had to label yourself, what would you want to be?"

Whether you're an actor or a fashion star, set a few easily identifiable labels for yourself to distinguish yourself from others.

Lu Yunzhou felt that this was a shortcut to quickly gaining a fan base.

For example, the reason he was able to stand out among so many new generation entrepreneurs back then was because Ji Rujing's marketing strategy for him was very appropriate.

A talented, aloof nobleman, a man of luxury.

These are three labels attached to Lu Yunzhou.

Among a group of popular young male celebrities, he is so unique that there is simply no substitute for him in the Chinese entertainment industry.

When he directed "The Wild West," his talent and the image of a cold and aloof nobleman were firmly established.

But after he finished replicating Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper," all of the above labels became invalid.

He has evolved directly into a "young artist"!

It's not just the Chinese entertainment industry that lacks substitutes; it's unique worldwide.

He has reached the pinnacle in the "young artist" category.

Those who like him are truly devoted to him.

"I want to become the most beautiful woman in the world. Is that okay?" Wang turned to look at Lu Yunzhou, asking jokingly.

Her dreams are certainly grand. But the world's most beautiful woman?

Lu Yunzhou shook his head and chuckled, "These next two years will probably be difficult. But since ancient times, beauties and great generals are not allowed to grow old together. Perhaps you could give it a try when Nazha gets old."

Naza's looks are undeniably stunning.

But so what?

This was also Wang Ran's first time.

However, the treatment varies among newcomers.

"Ignore them."

What kind of celebrities the brand invites has nothing to do with Lu Yunzhou.

He was texting on his phone when he said to Wang Ran, "The show only lasts twenty or thirty minutes, so don't worry too much about it. However, before the show, the brand will let you choose a new dress. As it's the first time you've worn it globally, you must choose carefully."

This is the biggest draw of the fashion show.

A certain haute couture gown, worn for the first time globally, is inherently designed to elevate the status of female celebrities.

Female celebrities are symbols of fashion and luxury.

Whoever can wear the most expensive and luxurious haute couture gown will be the best.

To put it bluntly, this kind of show is just bringing together a bunch of female celebrities to compete in beauty and show off their looks.

In situations like this, Nazha always wins.

Therefore, Nazha really enjoys walking the runway in New York.

After all, Nazha has never lost a contest in this kind of situation.

Just then, Lu Yunzhou, having finished his conversation with someone, smiled at Wang Ran and said, "It's all settled. I've already spoken to Tom. Tomorrow afternoon, you go an hour early to choose your clothes. Everyone else will be behind you in line."

That's all the clothes I have.

Among the new dresses, there are definitely some beautiful ones, and some with unique designs.

Going in first to choose definitely has its advantages.

Go inside for an hour, which is enough time for Wang Ran to try on all the clothes and see which one looks the best.

Those selected later in the process can only pick up the ones that others don't want.

"Attending a fashion show is no big deal; it's just part of the process. You can take some nice photos. The important thing is the brand's dinner in the evening."

Last year, I took Xiaotian with me and helped her secure the endorsement for the perfume "Orchid de Chine".

"You need to do your best this year too."

"Estée Lauder has many famous designers under its umbrella. If they like you, they will treat you as their personal muse."

"Even if they switch to other brands, they will still appreciate you."

At this point, Lu Yunzhou cited Gulnazar as an example: "Tory Burch. You know this brand, right? Gulnazar was the only female celebrity they invited this year. Do you know why?"

Wang Ran had no idea how much he knew. He shook his head slightly.

Lu Yunzhou said with a smile, "Because this brand poached a new designer from Loewe. That designer admired Nazha's style when he was at Loewe, so the first thing he did after switching brands was to prepare for a second collaboration with Nazha."

"They really admire Nazha, and for this show, they even brought Julian Moore along to accompany them."

However, it seems that Tory Burch's efforts were in vain.

Because Nazha and Lu Yunzhou are deeply intertwined; Nazha is Kourui's go-to fashion star.

It's estimated that in the end, Tommy Hilary could only discuss the promotional contract with Gulnazar and ask her to help promote their handbags.

Kou Rui's handbags aren't very well-known.

The main issue is that Kourry's production capacity is limited, and they currently focus solely on women's shoes. Any surplus capacity will be used to produce some women's bags, but in very small quantities.

It belongs to a niche, high-quality category.

"Sister Nazha, are you really that popular in New York?"

Wang Ran was somewhat surprised.

Back in China, she thought Nazha was just a pretty face with no substance. Her acting was terrible, and Tangren Media didn't seem to have any particularly good resources for her.

Nazha is able to occasionally eat Lu Yunzhou's pancakes because Lu Yunzhou cherishes old friendships.

Lu Yunzhou smiled, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes: "When some people release press releases, they can distort the truth, treating netizens as if they were intelligent beings, and wildly boasting about their divine looks and outstanding temperament."

"However, designers of well-known brands are neither blind nor stupid, and they are not easily fooled."

"Everyone has their own sense of who has a sense of style."

Lu Yunzhou has always spoken the truth.

Wang Churan also knew that Lu Yunzhou rarely lied, as lying was not his forte.

Just on the plane, Lu Yunzhou had said that she was destined to be an empress.

What is the first rule for becoming an empress?

To share His Majesty's burdens and set an example for the six palaces.

Naza has such great fashion value—next time, when she meets Naza, she will naturally treat her with respect and they can be good sisters.

"Xiaomeng, get some rest tonight and adjust to the time difference. Tomorrow you'll be choosing clothes, the day after tomorrow you'll be attending a fashion show, and the night after that there's a brand dinner."

"The day after tomorrow, I'll arrange for you to have a photoshoot for VOGUE magazine—and then we'll take our wedding photos together."

""

"Queen of Tears" has been the hottest TV series in Asia for the past two months.

Looking at the world, it is also one of the most popular shows on Netflix.

In the category of idol dramas, "Queen of Tears" is undoubtedly number one.

Wang Ran became an overnight sensation as a result.

Besides Wang Ran, Wu Jinyan, who became an overnight sensation this past summer, is another actress who rose to fame with "Story of Yanxi Palace".

She also attended New York Fashion Week, and even had three shows – she was incredibly busy.

The sheer volume of traffic generated by a hit work is enough to propel an unknown person to stardom.

"Brother, I'm going to rest now. You should go to sleep early too."

In order to adjust her state and show off her unparalleled beauty to the world, Wang Ran decided to temporarily let Lu Yunzhou go.

I won't be drinking porridge for the next couple of days.

The main reason is that, in the end, drinking depletes her vital energy.

She couldn't let Nazha take the lead.

At this stage, she knows that her beauty is definitely not as good as Nazha's—she can only rely on her youth to win.

Back in her room, lying alone on the bed, Wang Ran was thinking about how to start cultivating the image of herself as the number one beauty of the post-95 generation, a true empress.

-

She thought about it all night but couldn't figure it out.

The next morning, Wang Ran had a busy schedule.

In preparation for tomorrow's brand fashion show, she needs to go ahead and choose her clothes, discuss suitable makeup with her stylist, and match various jewelry.

She'll be busy all day today.

For female celebrities, walking the runway is no different than going to war.

Choosing clothes and makeup is equivalent to preparing your own armor and weapons.

If you don't prepare properly, you might get killed in one hit on the battlefield, and you'll regret it for the rest of your life.

She even managed to resist the urge to drink porridge last night.

However, this morning, she couldn't resist and, upon arriving at the cafeteria, saw that the restaurant in New York actually served congee, so she ordered a bowl.

"Huh?"

"I didn't expect this porridge to be so delicious!"

The porridge tasted much better than Wang Ran had imagined; it had a unique, refreshing aroma and a milky fragrance.

Could they have added milk?

Wang Churan was somewhat curious, and she was also quite excited as it was her first time at New York Fashion Week.

In addition, as a member of the post-95 generation who grew up with the internet, she habitually takes photos and posts online to share her daily life with netizens.

So she posted a photo of herself drinking porridge early in the morning on her Weibo account.

She also wrote a message: "Having a bowl of porridge in the morning warms me up, and then I'm off to work. Go September!"

Another day full of energy!

Wang Churan felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said.

Moreover, she is generous and dignified.

After posting these messages, she went to choose her clothes early, as arranged by the brand, to pick out the prettiest outfits before Jing Tian, ​​Zhang Junning, and others arrived.

Because after the dress is chosen, the designer will make slight adjustments based on her figure.

Therefore, once you've made your choice, no one can take it away from you.

Not long after, Wang Ran went to the brand to choose clothes.

As expected, she was all alone.

On the clothes rack, various dresses awaited her selection. Several designers and stylists were also present, ready to assist her.

"Thank you, brother."

"My brother is so good to me."

"Now, I believe that his act of shielding Jing Tian from a bullet was just an accident."

Everyone hates being cut in line. But everyone longs for the freedom to cut in line without any consequences.

Wang Churan forcefully cut in line today.

Therefore, she was in a particularly wonderful mood, and even the bowl of plain porridge in the morning felt like the most delicious food in the world.

However, after Wang Ran posted a photo of white porridge online, it was interpreted from different angles by Lu Yunzhou's fans.

"Boat girls are so annoying!"

"You said you were drinking porridge, and it's fine if you were drinking it secretly, but who doesn't know that you and Zhouzhou are having an affair? Why did you have to post it?"

It's so late at night, it's disgusting!

-

It is 8 a.m. in New York, which is around 8 p.m. in China.

Wang Churan posted the message at 8 a.m., but Chinese netizens received the message at 8 p.m.

"Who was it that vowed that once she became empress, she would grant a general amnesty and ensure that all her sisters would have porridge to drink?"

""

"Now you're happily drinking porridge all by yourself, even in New York you can get porridge. And you still dare to openly provoke your sisters?"

"We all know each other, and you came from among us. We're all so happy for your achievements. We've also bought a lot of the Kiko skincare products you endorse."

"Sisters truly hope that you will reach even greater heights. After all, in our hearts, you are like a dream to us. You represented us as we walked to Zhouzhou's side, becoming his favorite girl and being cherished by him."

"Your sisters worked hard to generate data for you, helping you surpass Dilraba's data by more than double in the past month, and helping you reach the top of the female influencer rankings."

"You are now the top female influencer born after 95."

"Do you think you're doing this all by yourself? It's all thanks to your sisters working day and night to generate data for you, buying magazines for you, getting you memberships, and buying you merchandise."

"So this is how you repay your sisters? No, you didn't just repay them—you practically beat them up!"

Without Wang Ran's knowledge, she was subjected to a barrage of insults.

Several short posts appeared under her Weibo post, all of which were stories of Wang Ran joking with her group members back then, saying that if she became empress, she would promise everyone that they would have porridge to drink.

Fortunately, these girls still had some principles and didn't release the chat screenshots.

After all, there are rules in the group: you can chat about anything you want in the group, but you can't leak screenshots.

Once discovered, they will be kicked out immediately and permanently blacklisted.

In order to stay in the group and continue to enjoy the gossip and benefits, everyone tacitly agrees that they can pass on some of the chat gossip by word of mouth, but they cannot take screenshots and share them with others, lest they become the laughing stock of their rivals.

While Wang Ran was still trying on clothes, in less than two hours, she lost 50 followers on Weibo because of a few short posts.

These are all active fans; they are her core base.

These fans were all accumulated by Wang Ran little by little over two months with the help of "Queen of Tears".

After all, Wang Churan represents a dream for her fans.

-

This means that an ordinary girl can walk up to her idol, become his most beloved younger sister, act in idol dramas with him, play his wife in the dramas, and be loved by him in all sorts of ways.

Even her brother shielded her from bullets.

She is her brother's white moonlight, his childhood sweetheart, and their predestined relationship, which they continue even though they are separated by thousands of miles in a foreign land.

The dream of "Queen of Tears" is so beautiful that it has captivated many young fans.

Wang Churan is their "human form," exercising their will.

But now, this "human form" actually dares to have its own consciousness, and actually dares to secretly go to drink porridge behind their backs?

Is this still available?

We must act on behalf of Heaven and eliminate them as quickly as possible.

In Shanghai, at the high school section of an international school.

"Little box, little box—something terrible has happened."

Having just entered her first year of high school, He Shiyu immediately felt how devastating high school studies could be.

Even in international schools like those in Shanghai, high school boarding students are required to attend evening self-study sessions.

After finally getting through the evening self-study session, He Shiyu was about to head to her dormitory when she was unexpectedly blocked at the dormitory entrance.

"What's wrong?"

On her very first day of school, He Shiyu became a campus celebrity. She didn't know anyone else, but everyone in the entire grade knew her.

"Wang's house has collapsed!"

"She posted pictures of herself drinking porridge on Weibo."

"At least 50 people have unfollowed me."

"Many people are also calling her shameless! She's not even as good as Gulnazar!"

The students were discussing it animatedly.

"A house collapsed? They're eating porridge?"

Upon hearing this, He Shiyu was completely stunned, staggering as she asked incredulously, "Did she post my brother's bedroom photos?"

If that's the case, He Shiyu would want to kill Wang Cheran.

The students quickly waved their hands and explained, "No, no. It's just a photo of us drinking porridge this morning."

At that moment, He Shiyu's little brain seemed to freeze, and she asked blankly, "Porridge for breakfast? What's the difference between that and a sex photo?"

Drinking porridge is a code word in their group.

They say it so often that it's almost become instinctive. At this moment, He Shiyu didn't have time to think much and completed the replacement in her mind.

"You'll see when you take a look."

The students felt they couldn't explain it clearly, so someone took out their phone and showed He Shiyu a picture of Wang Ran's congee.

Upon seeing the photo, He Shiyu was speechless: "Isn't this just plain congee? What does this have to do with the building collapse? My brother isn't even in the photo. What does this prove?"

"Yes, it's plain congee."

The students all nodded, but then added, "But don't you think she's showing off? She gets up first thing in the morning to eat plain porridge. Why would she post a photo like that?"

Wang Churan was indeed showing off, betting that netizens wouldn't understand.

To everyone's surprise, these girls immediately realized that Wang Ran was showing off, and they even guessed what he was showing off about.

He Shiyu had met Wang Churan and Lu Yunzhou in person, and the atmosphere between the two seemed a bit strange.

However, He Shiyu refused to believe it.

She hoped that it was all just her imagination.

Perhaps it's because Lu Yunzhou and Wang Chu have a very good relationship, like siblings.

After all, Lu Yunzhou and Tang Yan seemed to have a good relationship, like siblings.

At such a young age, she didn't understand how complicated the relationship between the three of them could be. She just hoped that Lu Yunzhou wouldn't fall from grace.

【Emperor of Porridge's Imperial Guard Universe Number One Detachment】

After Wang Ran posted the "drinking porridge" photo on Weibo, the group chat exploded in no time.

The sisters cursed Wang Ran more than 1000 times from beginning to end.

"Is she brainless?"

"She secretly drank the porridge, and the sisters had no evidence, so they could only let her be arrogant."

-

"But why did she post it on Weibo?"

9

"We can understand that she wants to show off—after all, she's always been this kind of person, repeating even the smallest things three times in the group chat."

"What do we do now?"

"She posted on Weibo to show off, and she felt good about it, but it dragged down her brother—who probably knows nothing about it, as he's in New York contacting various brands to promote her as a fashion superstar."

"That's how Xiaotian got the endorsement last year, which earned him several million."

"Song Yameng, oh Song Yameng, you are truly unworthy of such a blessing."

"Where is General Tian? @Sihaiwuxiantian, come out! In this situation, the great edifice is about to collapse, and the country is on the verge of ruin. Do you have any good strategies, my dear minister?"

After much anticipation, Tian Xiwei finally made an appearance.

She pretended not to see anything: "What's going on? I'm in evening class at school. A bunch of classmates are asking me to look at my phone."

"Give me two minutes, I need to look at the chat history first."

Two minutes later, Tian Xiwei pretended to understand everything and angrily said, "Song Yameng, how dare you poison my brother?"

I, Tian Xiwei, swear to God that I sever all sisterly ties with her from this day forward, and we are sworn enemies!

After stating her position, Tian Xiwei tried to save face for Lu Yunzhou: "Sisters, don't worry for now. Brother has very high standards and wouldn't be interested in Song Yameng—you don't know, Song Yameng may be pretty, but she has many flaws. Especially her big feet, which smell incredibly bad when she takes off her shoes."

"Yang Mi's nickname is 'Stinky Feet,' which is nothing compared to Song Yameng."

"I went out with Song Yameng and stayed in the same room. I couldn't stay there for more than 10 minutes before I felt dizzy and the smell of her feet made me want to jump out of the window and commit suicide."

"Think about it, how fragrant he smelled! Many of you have been to offline movie screenings and smelled his scent."

"Actually, my brother is a bit of a germaphobe. How could someone with germaphobia tolerate a woman with smelly feet in their bed?"

That makes sense!

Tian Xiwei is an insider; she knows Lu Yunzhou and Wang Ran best.

Her words calmed many people down.

"So, Song Yameng was just daydreaming? She deliberately pretended to have drunk the porridge to incite jealousy in others?"

"If someone asks her, she can pretend she doesn't know anything and just say she had some porridge for breakfast. It's just other people making things up."

well said!

This line of reasoning is exactly the effect Tian Xiwei wanted.

The situation is very serious now; it's a choice between saving the mother or the child.

Without a doubt, they all chose to give up on Wang Cheran!

At this moment, Tian Xiwei couldn't help but add fuel to the fire, saying disdainfully, "Song Yameng doesn't understand her brother at all. Actually, her brother never drinks plain porridge. He likes to drink seafood porridge in the morning."

Upon hearing this, the group members immediately turned their attention to Tian Xiwei: "Little Tian, ​​how did you know?"

"You've all lost your memories?"

Tian Xiwei stated righteously, "Last year, I also went to New York. My brother and I stayed there for a week, and every morning we drank seafood porridge. I was almost sick of it. That porridge was so fishy; how could I, a Chongqing native, get used to eating seafood?"

It turned out to be the case.

Just then, a brilliant idea popped up in the group chat: "Xiao Tian, ​​after a vote within the Imperial Guard, it has been unanimously decided that you will be sent to take care of Song Yameng."

"From now on, your sisters will support you as Empress!"

"If, brother, you absolutely must have an empress by your side—Xiao Tian, ​​all of you sisters will collectively support you taking the throne!"

After all, Tian Xiwei is truly sensible; she never shows off.

Although Tian Xiwei possesses immense strength, Lu Yunzhou might not be able to withstand her night raid. He might even be carried directly into her bed.

But as long as Tian Xiwei doesn't show off, everyone will pretend they don't know.

He's much better than Wang Ran.

"Thank you for your kindness, sisters."

"Just watch my performance—give me five minutes, and I'll have Song Yameng bring me her head!"

After calming down the women in the group, Tian Xiwei immediately started frantically calling Wang Ran.

Wang was terrified and refused to answer.

Tian Xiwei called Wang Ran's assistant again, finally getting through, and couldn't help but burst out yelling, "Song Yameng, what are you doing? Are you crazy?"

"Delete that Weibo post you made right now."

"From now on, don't post on your Weibo yourself. Let your agent manage it for you. If you can't resist showing off, create a new account for fun."

Wang Churan was completely unaware of what had happened and was thoroughly berated by Tian Xiwei, leaving her utterly dumbfounded.

When she checked Weibo and the group chat, she realized just how much of a stir her photo had caused.

Although she felt a little awkward, she still deleted the Weibo post from that morning, despite the barrage of criticism.

Unfortunately, too many fans were lost.

This made Wang Churan feel a little sorry for him.

In just two hours this morning, 50 troops were lost—what kind of empire could withstand such losses?

These are all elite troops.

The group chat was still filled with insults directed at Wang Churan.

As the new "Porridge Queen," He Shiyu stepped forward and asked softly, "Sisters, do you believe in me?"

Hearing this, the others in the group instinctively felt disgusted: "Little Box, what are you trying to say? Are you also trying to excuse Song Yameng? Does she think that just because she's the first group leader of the fan group, she can rest on her laurels and act recklessly? Her behavior today—"

If this behavior isn't stopped, it will eventually ruin my brother's life.

"Listen to me, sisters."

He Shiyu organized her thoughts and said, "I've met Sister Chuan in person. She looks a bit burly, not like the type of Jiangnan beauty that Brother likes."

"I looked around the company and there's only one suspect among the people my brother likes."

"As for who it is, I won't say, lest it cause everyone to overthink. Anyway, it's not Sister Chuan."

"7

"So, it seems like everyone has wronged Sister Chuan. She probably just shared some breakfast."

is it?

But if that's the case, why is Wang Ran feeling guilty?

Why did she delete her Weibo posts?

Ultimately, wasn't she just trying to show off? Show off that she and Lu Yunzhou were in New York together, staying in the same hotel and watching the same show?

She's already the pinnacle of female fangirls!

Even so, she was still not satisfied—she actually wanted to be empress?

Their intentions are utterly despicable.

Immediately afterwards, another round of verbal attacks against Wang Ran ensued in the group.

However, no one talked about Lu Yunzhou's love life anymore—seeing this, Tian Xiwei and He Shiyu both breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Why are there so many messages today?"

Much later, during military training, Hu Lianxin, the group admin who was exhausted, discovered that such a big thing had happened in the group.

When the group leader Hu Lianxin popped up, everyone unleashed all the pent-up anger they had been holding back.

"Xiao Hu, you should step down and give way to a more capable person."

"You dare to delay such a crucial military matter?"

"I see that Xiao Hu and Song Yameng are acting like lovers, and the two are in cahoots. They may already be plotting against each other. We should take them out to the Meridian Gate and behead them! Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."

"After we eliminate Xiao Hu, we, the ten administrators, will jointly support Xiao Hezi to storm Xuanwu Gate and ascend to the throne as the group leader!"

new York.

Wang Churan is preparing for tomorrow night's big show.

Lu Yunzhou then went with Nazha to Rockefeller Center to check out Kiko's newly opened boutique.

Kourry, LDC Jewelry, and Borsalino all have flagship stores on Fifth Avenue.

Kiko isn't a luxury brand. As a high-end beauty brand, opening a boutique in Rockefeller Center near Fifth Avenue is enough.

"Nazha, why are you looking at me like that?"

Are you hungry?

Lu Yunzhou, accompanied by his bodyguards and assistants, swaggered through the city and attracted a crowd of tourists when he arrived at the Kiko boutique.

At that moment, Nazha was also watching him, her eyes revealing a strange look.

"See for yourself."

Naza didn't know what to say, so she showed Lu Yunzhou the message on Weibo.

In less than two hours, Wang Ran earned the nickname "Porridge Sister".

This nickname needs no explanation; it's concise and to the point.

After reading the whole story, Lu Yunzhou sighed slightly.

Being a celebrity is really tough. You have to be careful with every word and action, or you'll mess things up if you say the wrong thing.

This photo has taught Wang Churan a profound lesson.

I reckon she'll never dare to post photos randomly again.

Seeing Lu Yunzhou sighing, Nazha couldn't help but chuckle and even raised her eyebrows at him, as if to say: I'm much smarter than Wang Ran, so I didn't cause you any trouble.

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements. This will all be over soon."

Lu Yunzhou had long known that Wang Ran was somewhat impulsive, so he arranged for Tian Xiwei to secretly protect him.

Just as Lu Yunzhou had predicted.

A short while later, Wang Ran deleted the photos from her Weibo account, and no one commented on her Weibo anymore.

This matter was gradually suppressed.

However, as a result of this incident, Wang Ran was burdened with several negative reputations.

"She's been craving congee like crazy," "She loves it," "Plain Congee Sister," "Forced to ride the wave of popularity," "Big feet and stinky feet."

Lu Yunzhou could understand the others.

Big feet stinking—what's going on here?

"Yunzhou, are her feet really that smelly? Even smellier than Sister Mi's?"

Even Gulnazar was curious about this.

"You really do believe everything." Lu Yunzhou was speechless and didn't want to explain.

How do you explain this thing?

Should we let Nazha smell it?

Lu Yunzhou didn't want to dwell on this topic, so he changed the subject and brought up the movie: "By the way, Gulnazar, have you ever wondered why your character in 'The Fairy Castle 2' is named Adeline?"

How would I know?

Naza paused for a moment, then shook her head with a silly grin.

After a while, she looked at Lu Yunzhou expectantly: "You're the director, you must have your own profound intentions. I know that every character is like your child, and you love those characters very much."

Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but laugh, and explained seriously, "Adeline is an ivory statue of a beautiful maiden in Greek mythology."

"The sculptor despised worldly women, yet he was deeply obsessed with his work. So he prayed to Venus, the goddess of love. Venus then gave the statues life."

"Adeline, who had gained life, married the sculptor and had children."

Upon hearing this, Nazha automatically translated it in her mind.

It is known that Adeline is herself, and the sculptor, who is also the director, is Lu Yunzhou.

In the film, Lu Yunzhou created the character of Adeline, which is equivalent to a sculptor completing a sculpture.

This is the first layer of the story.

On the second level, the sculptor fell in love with the statue of Adeline, which is the same as Lu Yunzhou falling in love with me, Nazha.

As for the final layer of the story, they married and had children.

Absolutely perfect.

Lu Yunzhou was always like this, giving himself a little sweetness from time to time—a sweetness that no one else could give him.

This ingenuity, this unique subtext—only an artist brimming with artistic flair like Lu Yunzhou could bestow such romance upon her.

Naza really likes this feeling.

There was also an emptiness in her heart—because she was a beautiful but foolish woman with an empty heart, possessing nothing inside.

She used to like rich second-generation heirs, thinking that money could fill the emptiness in her heart.

But as she grew wealthier, money gradually became unable to fill the emptiness in her heart. Even now, she feels somewhat indifferent when she encounters wealthy second-generation heirs.

The worst thing between people is comparison.

In comparison, she felt that Lu Yunzhou was better in every way.

"Wang Chiran causes you trouble every day, but you never get angry."

"I slightly went against your wishes and didn't want to become an action star. And you ignored me for months. Yunzhou, don't forget your old love just because you have a new one."

Naza smiled gently at Lu Yunzhou.

Lu Yunzhou has two important matters to attend to during his trip to New York.

The first thing is to promote the movie.

The second thing was to attend New York Fashion Week.

As long as he shows his face, no matter what the media and magazines write, with the help of online trolls, the topic will naturally be directed to Lu Yunzhou's brand, Kourui.

Even though Chloe didn't attend Fashion Week, she still generated a lot of buzz.

And so does Nazha.

She is the first spokesperson for Kourei!

The two are strongly bound together.

Naza knows that as long as her looks don't falter, Lu Yunzhou will always reserve the position of the first spokesperson for Kourei for her.

Although Lu Yunzhou has a thousand or one flaws, he has one excellent quality: he is a person who always rewards those who have made contributions.

The brand "Koire" was built up by Nazha and Lu Yunzhou. If she wanted, she could rely on Koire for her retirement.

"Nazha, you've got one thing wrong."

Lu Yunzhou gently shook his head, and under Nazha's questioning gaze, said, "You're not my old flame. You're my new love."

.

The new love is indeed much better than the old one.

Upon hearing this, Nazha chuckled and said earnestly, "Yunzhou, when you're done playing around, I'll take over, okay?"

"Stop pretending."

"I know you like me the most."

After saying that, Nazha snorted and tilted her head back at Lu Yunzhou, looking like she was the most beautiful woman in the world.

"You're really confident."

Keep it up.

"Keep it up until next February, Milan Fashion Week. That's our stage."

New York Fashion Week was Lu Yunzhou's away game.

Milan Fashion Week is his main battleground.

Next year, after accumulating enough strength, he will face Dolce & Gabbana head-on!

At this moment, Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but think to himself, "November is almost here—Dilraba, don't let me down."

If nothing unexpected happens, Dolce & Gabbana is going to collapse in China in November.

The vacant slots will be filled entirely by Kourei.
