Reborn to bury love, I can reach for the stars.

“It’s perfect,” the stylist exclaimed softly. “Now there’s only one last step – to add the right jewelry.”

She took the jewelry box and carefully selected matching necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, each piece of jewelry shining with a unique brilliance.

In the end, the stylist selected a set of sapphire jewelry and put it on Shi Wanmeng. It seemed to be tailor-made for her. The deep light of the sapphire made her skin look even whiter, as warm and delicate as mutton fat jade, and it also complemented the dress's shimmering glow in the sunlight.

The stylist smiled at her and said, "You look beautiful, but that pearl outfit also goes well with you. Ugh, I'm having trouble making a decision."

After saying that, he looked at Shi Wanmeng and asked, "What do you think?"

Shi Wanmeng looked at the person in the mirror and could hardly believe it was herself.

Sure enough, clothes make the man. I've never worn such a high-class dress in my past life, let alone such expensive jewelry. Sigh, you have to be rich.

The stylist had no idea that the beautiful woman in front of him was already thinking about how to make money.

Chi Yun knew her very well. Seeing that she was starting to drift off into her own thoughts, he coughed a few times to bring her back to reality.

“It’s great,” Shi Wanmeng said, her mouth watering at the sight of it. “This is the one.”

The makeup artist smiled and nodded, "I also think it suits you well. Come on, let's change the dress and do our hair."

Chi Yun took out a schedule and handed it over: "Take a look at the schedule for later. We're walking the red carpet with Huang Chen. I don't know what the organizers are thinking. Are they trying to generate buzz for you guys?"

Shi Wanmeng took the process sheet, glanced at it quickly, and didn't say anything, but she felt very uneasy.

Well, this doesn't seem to be explained.

Just then, her cell phone rang, saving her.

Xiao hope handed the phone to me from behind and said, "Wanmeng, it's Su Muqing on the phone."

When Shi Wanmeng took the phone, she could already guess what the person on the other end wanted to say.

"Hahahaha, Wanmeng," Su Muqing's exaggerated laughter came through the phone the moment the call connected: "You saw it, right? Hahahaha, you walked the red carpet with Huang Chen!"

Shi Wanmeng wanted to lower her head and rub her forehead, but unfortunately her hair was in someone else's hands, so she couldn't lower her head.

"Oh my god, I'm dying of laughter when I see this. You know what he's doing, using his power to do this. Couldn't he have done something bigger?" Su Muqing didn't care whether Shi Wanmeng reacted or not, and kept talking on the other end.

"If it were me, I'd arrange a confession on stage or something. Look at how ambitious he is. Hey, I have to say, he's actually quite romantic. Why don't you just go for it, hahaha."

Shi Wanmeng gritted her teeth, but considering that there were other people around, she could only whisper, "Don't talk nonsense to me. If you want to go, go yourself."

Su Muqing paused, then said aggrievedly, "It's a pity they don't like me." Then she burst into laughter.

"Fine, we won't meet on the red carpet, but you just wait inside."

The call was abruptly ended as soon as the words were spoken.

Shi Wanmeng shook her head helplessly as she listened to the busy tone on her phone.

The makeup artist next to her smiled and asked, "Was that Su Muqing calling? You two are really close."

Shi Wanmeng smiled but didn't say anything.

Chi Yun glanced at her watch and looked at the makeup artist: "Sister Mei, how much longer? We have an hour and a half before we have to wait backstage."

Makeup artist Sister Mei chuckled when she saw Chi Yun's expression: "Brother Chi, are you in such a hurry? Don't worry, we've participated in many of these kinds of events, we'll definitely make it in time."

Sister Mei is a veteran in this industry, and it took a lot of effort to get her to do Shi Wanmeng's makeup and hair this time. Chi Yun nodded politely, "Then I'll have to trouble Sister Mei."

"Don't worry, your Wanmeng is definitely going to be the star of the show today!"

At the event, lights were already set up and a red carpet was laid out. Media outlets and fans gathered on both sides, waiting for the celebrities to appear.

Not only at the scene, but also online, fans of the celebrities who have confirmed their participation are already creating hype, and there are also casual observers waiting to judge the celebrities' outfits, making it quite a lively scene.

At this moment, Shi Wanmeng in the room had her hair done and was wearing a freshly ironed dress. Sister Mei was helping her with the final touch-ups.

Sister Mei quickly applied lipstick to Shi Wanmeng's lips and exclaimed sincerely, "It looks so good! You're absolutely gorgeous!"

Shi Wanmeng looked at herself in the mirror again and again, blushing slightly amidst the compliments around her. In her heart, she muttered to herself: Hey, she really is beautiful.

Chi Yun watched from the side and couldn't help but take out his phone to take a few photos. He then instructed Xiao hope to quickly take out her camera and take more photos to post on Weibo later.

At this point, staff came over to inform them that it was time to get ready to go to the red carpet.

The stylist came over and adjusted her necklace again, then lifted her skirt: "Shall we go?"

“Let’s go.” Shi Wanmeng and Chi Yun answered at the same time.

The entire hotel has been booked by the organizers and is full of staff and celebrities attending the banquet tonight.

They took the elevator to the hotel lobby and saw Huang Chen waiting there.

Today he wore a black suit with subtle patterns, looking very understated. The only eye-catching item was the diamond cufflink on his cuff. He didn't wear any other accessories, making it seem like he was attending a business event rather than a fashionable evening banquet.

Because they were going to walk the red carpet together, Shi Wanmeng walked straight toward Huang Chen. As if by telepathy, Huang Chen turned around and looked at her after she had only taken two steps.

Although a group of people were approaching, Huang Chen could only see Shi Wanmeng at that moment.

The girl wore the dress he had chosen; the white fabric shimmered slightly, making her look like a mermaid from the deep sea. Her seaweed-like black hair cascaded down her chest, her beautiful collarbones were faintly visible, and a sapphire necklace was a perfect match, eye-catching yet not overpowering.

As he approached, a faint floral fragrance lingered around Huang Chen's nose, making him want to trace its source.

Shi Wanmeng nodded slightly to Huang Chen, a perfectly timed smile playing on her lips.

At this moment, his heart was filled with complex emotions. It felt as if two little voices were fighting inside him. One voice regretted letting her wear that dress, making her seem to glow, and now she couldn't hide it anymore. The other voice was smug, thinking that a girl like this should be shown to the whole world, and that he was the one standing next to her today.

Huang Chen didn't come to his senses until Shi Wanmeng stood in front of him, but he made no attempt to hide the amazement in his eyes.

He gentlemanly extended his arm, gesturing for Shi Wanmeng to take his arm, then leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I have excellent taste."

In public, Shi Wanmeng remembered Chi Yun's reminder to be mindful of her image, and could only smile and glare at him fiercely.

Unexpectedly, Huang Chen laughed even more heartily.

Shi Wanmeng could only force a stiff smile and squeeze out two words: "Pervert!"
