Rong Corp’s internal annual party was actually fairly well-known in the business world. Currently, Rong Corp has many brand name products. Even in the entertainment circle, very few didn’t know them. Each product naturally had its celebrity representative to endorse it. Every year, these different representatives would all receive Rong Corp’s invitations to attend the annual party. They could even participate in the annual lottery.
Rong Corp had a huge impact in the world. Therefore many media and newspaper reporters also came to the party to cover the event.
To make a long story short, practically all of the representatives came, unless they had brain damage. Also because the annual party at Rong Corp was very grand, they would all come wearing extremely luxurious outfits, terrified that they’d lose in publicity to other representatives otherwise.
This year was no exception.
One of the people on the list of invitations was the most popular A list star, An Ran.
An Ran originally came from a girl band. After the girl band disbanded, on the contrary, she flew and soared. In the last two years, she crossed over into acting and performed in two pretty well-received tv series and became even more popular.
At the beginning of this year, she signed on as the representative of a luxurious brand of female wristwatch. After hugging Rong Corp’s big thighs, she discovered that she instantly encountered much less hindrance in the entertainment circle.
Originally An Ran didn’t realize. It wasn’t until this one time she successfully snatched the magazine front page from another A list celebrity with the same amount of popularity and rank, that she heard these words.
[I’m so mad. If she wasn’t so lucky to sign with Rong Corp, and others always showed Rong Corp some face, how could she even have the chance to get on the front page of this magazine!]
An Ran finally realized! So it was like this! It was because of Rong Corp!
After that, she put this fact to test plenty of times. Whenever someone fought with her for opportunities, she would pull out the card that she was Rong Corp’s representative to suppress her competitors. It was successful almost every time.
However, occasionally there would be those who didn’t fall for this method. Then An Ran would hint to them that she and Rong Corp’s CEO Rong had something together.
The mountain was tall and the emperor was far away. It’s not like these people would run in front of CEO Rong to confirm her words anyways. So whether it was true or not, in the end, it was her words that mattered.
Receiving a positive effect after once or twice, An Ran began to desire for something more. For this annual party, she borrowed a Haute Couture outfit far in advance so that she could become the most beautiful star in this party.
Everyone paid attention to Rong Corp’s annual party. Last year, there was even some internal worker who braved death to open a live broadcast. The money made from the entire live broadcast was more than a year of their salary.
Though after the event, they were instantly fired by the company. And the team of lawyers also directly taught them how to conduct themself with integrity.
This year, it wasn’t the same!
Rong Corp announced in advance! That they were going to open a live broadcast themself! This was called ‘Walking in someone else’s path while taking away their options’!
Several big live broadcasting stations all came to fight for the right to host. In the end, the big boss of a large station used an extremely low dividend to snatch away the rights.
Mentioning for a moment, that this idea was proposed by head assistant He. So as a reward, one percent of the profit of this live broadcast was to be given to assistant He’s cat.
6pm that night. The live broadcast began officially.
[Here it comes! Here it comes! They’re entering. I’m in the front row peddling sunflower seeds, soda, and little stools!]
[Hahahaha, why are there so many people entering? However, since you’re all here, I can be at rest. So it’s not just only me who wants to know about Rong Corp’s annual party! ]
[I came to hate on the rich! Wuuwuuwuuuwuu, I’m going to lemon ahead of time. I heard the big prize of this year’s annual lottery is one of the vehicles in their big boss’s garage!]

[What? Is that real or fake? I’m also very lemon ahhhhh! What kind of magical company was this ahhhhhh!]
[Aye, why else do you think it’s so hard to get hired at Rong Corp? Is being the top ten fake? No. However, I’m also very curious which of the big boss’s cars is the prize.]
[Meow meow meow? Speak, Rong Corp’s CEO is which big boss?]
Cr rbbc jr atlr cfalhfc rqbxf, atf mbwwfca rmgffc lcrajcais gbjrafv atfw lc eclrbc.
[You don’t even know who Rong Corp’s CEO is yet you dare to come watch the live broadcast?]
[Bro, aren’t you a bit fake? What are you doing here if you don’t even know this?]
[Aye. I just wanted to see some new things so I came here.]

“Ok. Everything is ready.”
“Where’s the box that has the brooch we borrowed from Rong Corp? Bring it over carefully to wear.”
Everything in order, An Ran was dressed in a pure white long dress looking like an angel. The big wave-like ruffles to one side of the outfit added a hint of charm to her innocent, pure appearance.
The high beam that’s specially aimed at her collarbone made her figure look small and delicate. The assistant following beside her immediately exclaimed: “An-jie, you’re too beautiful tonight! You’ll definitely suppress everyone else!”
An Ran pressed her lips together and turned her head to look at an unremarkable middle aged man beside her: “Manager, what do you think?”
Her agent actually managed to keep his composure: “You’re already the most popular celebrity here tonight. Rong Corp was kind this time as well and allowed us to borrow plenty of accessories. Don’t worry. They won’t steal your limelight.”
An Ran made a face. For her to look extravagant and gorgeous and others being unable to surpass her, these are completely two different things okay?
However, no matter how she explained, the agent won’t understand anyways. It was impossible for him to understand a woman’s heart.
“Oh right, for Rong Corp’s annual party, will their company’s higher ups participate?” An Ran pushed aside the hair next to her ear. This extremely graceful gesture made plenty of people stare, mesmerized.
The agent’s brows furrowed: “Why are you asking this? You only need to walk the red carpet and wait until the party’s over, that’s all.”
“No reason. This is my first time endorsing a brand. Manager, do you know what the higher ups of Rong Corp look like? I don’t want to be unable to recognize them when the time comes and accidentally offend them.”
“This….” The agent became somewhat hesitant. He thought for a moment and then gestured to An Ran to lean close. He showed her a photograph to see: “I don’t know if any other higher ups will appear at the annual party. But last year, CEO Rong and his head assistant He attended. Take a look for a moment. If you see them, then smile, and quickly walk around them. Doesn’t matter which, you can’t afford to offend either of them, understand?” The agent warned her.
Agreeing with a smile on her face, An Ran had other plans in her heart.
If being a representative of Rong Corp was already bringing her so many benefits, then how could she be satisfied with only having the identity of a mere representative?
Meanwhile, Rong Qing at this time, was still laying limp in his office. Head tilted back, he looked at the ceiling. The metal hued ceiling looked cold as ice.
… No wonder I felt even colder.
Rong Qing tugged at the heavy, down jacket wrapped around him. He wanted to blank out in another place. But, he can’t.
Rong Qing sighed.
He definitely couldn’t let the regular workers see him wearing a down jacket! He can’t lose his big boss style!
He comforted himself inside.
Forget it, forget it. All he had to do was hold on until the annual party and show his face, that’s all. What’s left was Sweet Pea’s thing and didn’t have anything to do with him.
The annual party was about to start very soon. Once it started, there’re a few small activities and some speeches from the executives in the company. The netizens all started to crack watermelon seeds while they randomly chatted.
[Even if it’s such a big company. The executives’ speeches are unchanged. It’s still the same nonsense.]
[Aye. The annual party just started. Now is the time for everyone to crack your melon seeds. Get ready, everyone. There will definitely be interesting entertainment later.]
Sure enough, not long after, the first Rong Corp representative stepped on the red carpet and walked leisurely over. The well set up cameras instantly started to take pictures crazily. And the netizens crouching in front of the screen also started to eat their melon seeds with relish. The fans of different representatives bumped heads and fought, and there were only people who created more trouble, not less.
While upstairs in the office, Rong Qing also received an internal call. He should be getting ready to head down to make his speech. Also he needed to announce tonight’s top prize: one of the beloved vehicles in his garage.
Aye. Raising a company is really a homewrecker.
Lamenting as he stood up, Rong Qing slowly took off his down jacket and then inspected his outfit for today. Today he probably took out the most expensive pieces in his closet. Just his wrist watch alone was more than 30 million. That didn’t even include the gem brooch on his collar. This was the spoils of war from an auction the big boss attended three years ago. It cost more than 100 million.
Not bad.
Rong Qing’s wilted expression instantly recovered by a lot.
Who didn’t want to wear the cost of two oceanside mansions on themself? If it weren’t for the fact that it didn’t match very well, Rong Qing would have even embedded the antique he bought from the last auction event into his suit.
/Sigh, unfortunately.
Although it would show that he was extremely wealthy, it’d also decrease his style. Not worth it.
Rong Qing carefully examined himself and then shook his head.
The idea to gift a car from his garage was better in the end. Intangible pretentiousness was the most deadly! It’s time to let everyone know just how many luxury cars I have in my garage which they’d never be able to obtain in their entire lifetime!
That’s right. And I’ll give another cat bonus to assistant He later on. This idea is extremely fitting of Zhen’s desires!
As for money? That’s not a problem. Tonight, simply from the profit of the live broadcast and other random stuff, he’d be able to make back the cost of the car he’s giving out. No money squandered!
As Rong Qing got ready to head downstairs, the comment screen online already started to reach a peak. Pretty much everyone was discussing how Rong Corp was rich and imposing. Normally, they wouldn’t have noticed, but when they saw all these A list celebrities step on to the red carpet, they finally became aware that Rong Corp actually invited all these famous celebrities to become their representatives!
[Oh my god. Rong Corp had this much money? Why do I feel like all the celebrities I saw on trending this year are all present?]
[Rong Corp is one of the top 10 enterprises. Understand it for a moment. Especially our big boss CEO Rong, who is a nouveau riche who built all of this up from nothing! Are you afraid? When you’re still in school, this guy was already a famous young entrepreneur! When you just graduated, this guy’s already a CEO! When you just started working, very sorry, this guy’s already one of the top ten wealthiest big bosses in the world!]
[…. my mom is asking me why I am kneeling in front of the television. Big boss, look at this posture of mine. Is my kneeling posture standard enough?]
[Oh damn, I’ve been enlightened! There’s actually a legend like this in the world? Please accept my knees!]
And at this time, An Ran slowly stepped on to the red carpet under the flashing camera lights.
Hurry up and cheer! Take pictures of me! I am the Queen of the red carpet tonight!
She was feeling high spirited. And as she wished, as the final celebrity to walk the red carpet, all of the media knew to grab this opportunity and point their cameras at her and engage in a round of vigorous picture taking.
[Ahhhhhhhhh! my Ran is here! my Ran is so beautiful ahhhhh!]
[Carrying away my Ran! This collarbone! This waist! And these 5’9 long legs. I’m good ahhhhhhh!]
[my Ran’s brooch looks so good. But I already know that there’s no way I can afford that wuuwuuwuuu]
[An Ran looks really good today. I foresee tomorrow will be full of articles about her.]
[Definitely. My Ran is so good looking. There is no one at the scene who can cover up her limelight!]
[Ahhhhhhh! My Ran’s team announced that this entire ensemble of hers! Oh fck damn! Cost a total of 10 million oh my god!! That brooch was lent to my Ran. Although it was borrowed, it cost a total of 8 million!]
[8 million! I’m sour. I can’t even buy a $800 brooch.]
[An Ran is awesome! You’re the most attractive star on the red carpet tonight!]
The comment screen was densely packed with An Ran’s fans copy pasting this comment. Plenty of passersby instantly felt somewhat unwell.
Then a comment appeared.
[I feel like it’s only okay. The 8 million was only borrowed from Rong Corp. It’s not really a good reason to take over the comment screen. Maybe there will be someone even more awesome than her?]
An Ran’s fans immediately flipped.
[It’s only okay? Can you borrow 8 million? Do you know what it means for someone to be able to borrow an 8 million brooch from such a big corporation like Rong Corp? Oh. You definitely don’t understand. Country bumpkin, why don’t you go back and study some information about the inner workings of the entertainment circle before you make a disgrace of yourself.]
[Where did this crazy dog come from, spraying randomly? Is it because your idol can only wear an $800 brooch so now you’re sour? Do you know what it means to be the final celebrity? My Ran is the final celebrity of the red carpet tonight. That means that there’s no one who could surpass her here, ok?]
[I’m dying of laughter. Why so sour? Did you think 10 million was something that anyone could wear? If you can find someone who’s wearing something more expensive than my Ran, then I’ll immediately show you how to sht upside down!]
The comments on the screen were flying. The person being picked on didn’t dare to stand out and could only feel depressed quietly.
The next second, all of the cameras suddenly left An Ran. The fans didn’t even have a chance to shout at the cameramen to go eat sht, before they were all stunned.
On the screen, a well dressed man wearing a pair of white gloves slowly walked towards the screen. He had his lips slightly pressed together, his brows furrowed, and his face color was somewhat pale.
He was only walking over step by step, but it felt like he was stepping over everyone’s chest. Reserved, aloof, solemn, handsome, pretty much every single praiseworthy adjective assembled in their heads in that split second.
This man… if the celebrities were the stars, then he was the moon tonight. How can mere stars compare to the beauty of the bright shining moon?
Thank You for the new chapter (๑˙❥˙๑)
