Chapter 73 is not wearing anything.
At the ceremony, the event was nearing its end.
The ceremony lasted for several hours, during which the celebrities kept smiling and clapping in front of the cameras, which made them all a little tired.
Gao Wen was no exception; her smile was clearly faltering.
Moreover, Chen Jiang had just sent her a message saying "I'm here," which made her even more restless. She couldn't wait to end the event and be with Chen Jiang.
Unfortunately, as a popular actress, the cameras wouldn't let her off the hook, scanning her face again and again. Even though she was getting impatient, she had to wait patiently.
Finally, the ceremony ended and everyone dispersed.
After declining several colleagues' invitations to dine together, Gao Wen rushed backstage. Her agent, Sister Qing, greeted her with a frown and asked, "Wenwen, what's wrong with you today?"
"This isn't the first time you've participated in this kind of event. I've told you before that even if you're tired, you should just bear with it. But the way you were fidgeting today must have been caught on camera, and who knows, it might cause more scandals."
"I understand, Sister Qing." Gao Wen was tired too, but her restlessness wasn't due to exhaustion. However, she couldn't tell Sister Qing about this, so she replied casually, "But I really can't hold on much longer... My back hurts a lot..."
"Low back pain..."
Upon hearing this, Sister Qing couldn't say anything harsh, and could only sigh, "Sigh... this is a problem of yours... it's really hard to refuse this event, otherwise I wouldn't have let you come."
"But we've already given the organizers face by coming today. If you can't handle it, I'll talk to the organizers and they'll probably let you skip the rest. I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out."
"Can I skip the later activities?"
Gao Wen's eyes lit up. Wouldn't that mean she would have time to be with Chen Jiang again?
He quickly hugged Sister Qing, his face full of emotion.
"You're so good to me, Sister Qing... I love you so much~~"
"Alright, let me go..." Sister Qing couldn't help but smile. Perhaps because she was a bit older, and Gao Wen was pretty and had a good personality, she had almost come to regard Gao Wen as her own daughter after several years of getting to know her: "I'm just speaking on your behalf. Whether it's feasible or not, we'll have to discuss it with the company."
"If you say so, it will definitely work!" Gao Wen, who might have cared about the company's opinion before, was now completely unconcerned: "Besides, I made a lot of money for the company today. What's wrong with me resting for a while because of my back pain?"
"If you push me too far, I'll expose the company!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Sister Qing was startled and quickly tugged at Gao Wen. She breathed a sigh of relief after making sure no one was around. "Alright, you're tired. I won't say any more to you. Go change your clothes and I'll take you back to your hotel to rest."
"Uh... Can I not go back later, Sister Qing?" Gao Wen suddenly asked.
Sister Qing raised an eyebrow, realizing what was going on:
"Not going back? Where are you going then?"
"I... and a friend. I finally made it to Shanghai, and we arranged to meet later."
It wasn't that Gao Wen didn't want to hide it, but as her close manager, Sister Qing knew her too well, and their schedules were tightly intertwined, so if she wanted to meet Chen Jiang, she couldn't hide it.
The key point is that Sister Qing also knows Chen Jiang... and knows that she hasn't known Chen Jiang for very long. If she tells the truth, who knows how he will react? So she can only give a more tactful answer.
Sister Qing's brows were already tightly furrowed, and her eyes were fixed on Gao Wen, making Gao Wen feel guilty and her eyes darting away.
After a good ten seconds, Sister Qing finally relaxed her furrowed brows and asked directly:
"Are you in love?"
"Huh?" Gao Wen was startled by this, but of course she couldn't admit it, so she quickly shook her head: "No, how could that be? He's just an ordinary friend."
"Sister Qing, you know I've been so busy lately, I'm practically on my feet. How could I possibly have time for a romance... Don't just doubt me like that!"
Sister Qing stared at her for a moment, her eyes sweeping over Gao Wen's face several times, but she couldn't find any further flaws.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded in agreement to her request:
"Shall I take you there?"
Gao Wen shook her head repeatedly:
"No need, no need, Sister Qing, my friend sent a driver to pick me up."
"They even sent a driver..."
Sister Qing muttered something, not wanting to dwell on it.
If Gao Wen is in a relationship, that would certainly be a big deal, but if the other person denies it, there's not much she can do.
To put it bluntly, she was just an agent; Gao Wen was still the star. If the other party really did something, she couldn't stop them, especially since she wasn't really sure herself.
"Then let Xiaofang stay with you. I'm worried about you being alone in the middle of the night."
"Okay, go and rest, don't worry about me!" Gao Wen knew that if she didn't agree, Sister Qing wouldn't let her go, so she could only agree to take an assistant with her.
"Then I'll be leaving first."
Sister Qing didn't say anything more and left alone.
Seeing that she had left, Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly walked out of the venue and sent a message to Chen Jiang.
"Honey, have you arrived yet?"
Chen Jiang's message reply:
"We've arrived. It's right here at the side gate you mentioned. I'm standing under a street lamp waiting for you."
"I'm coming right away!"
Gao Wen put away her phone, first found an excuse to send away her assistant Xiao Fang who had come over, then put on a mask and hat and quickly found the side door.
She walked a few steps along the roadside and sure enough, she saw a figure standing under a streetlamp in the distance, looking at her. When he saw her looking over, he even waved.
Gao Wen couldn't contain herself any longer and ran over quickly, rushing into his arms. Feeling that familiar chest and warmth, her voice seemed to stick together:
"Honey...I miss you..."
"We haven't even been apart for a day, have we..."
Chen Jiang couldn't help but sigh, reaching out to touch her hair, feeling a bit of a headache from her clinginess.
Gao Wen said coquettishly:
"I don't care, I just miss you..."
"Okay, I miss you too." Chen Jiang could only offer one word of comfort, then said, "It's getting late, let's not stand here anymore, let's go somewhere else."
"Okay, whatever you say."
Gao Wen got up from Chen Jiang's embrace, but still held his hand tightly, her face slightly flushed.
Chen Jiang looked at her under the streetlight, noticing her makeup for the ceremony. Remembering the photos Gao Wen had sent him, he couldn't help but ask, "By the way, where's your dress for the ceremony?"
Gao Wen immediately understood the meaning behind Chen Jiang's words, patted him on the shoulder, and said shyly:
"What are you thinking... That's a haute couture dress, it costs hundreds of thousands, don't overthink it."
Chen Jiang was a little disappointed:
"Never mind then..."
Gao Wen couldn't bear to disappoint him, so she blushed and whispered in his ear:
"Actually, I've only changed my outer clothes... underneath I'm still..."
"If you want to..."
