632 Chapter 632-call

The smoke that Jiang Zhiyuan was exhaling surrounded him, and his furrowed brows could be seen from the flickering light of the cigarette.

He had actually been hesitating for many days. When Dai Jia gave him this string of numbers, he had been hesitating and had not been able to sleep well for the past few days.

‘I shouldn’t have done that,’ he thought rationally, but his instincts couldn’t do it.

That kind of blood connection could not be cut off in a lifetime.

He hesitated for a long time, and there was a pile of cigarette butts beside his feet. Jiang Zhiyuan finally made up his mind. He took a deep breath of the cigarette, letting the smell of the tobacco enter his body. He turned it around and spat it out from his mouth. He finally made up his mind, picked up his phone, and pressed the dial button.

He had actually already memorized this string of numbers, but when he dialed it, he was still very careful, as if he was afraid of dialing the wrong number.

After he pressed it, he compared it again and again to make sure that he did not press the wrong button. He licked his lips, and his fingers trembled for a long time before he finally pressed the dial button.

When he pressed the button, he actually regretted his decision to hang up. He thought that if Jiang se did not pick up after three rings, perhaps this was fate. Perhaps it was God’s arrangement to let his daughter have a smooth life. She was destined to never have a father like him.

When the phone rang for the second time, Jiang Zhiyuan’s finger instinctively stopped on the hang up button. However, in the next moment, before he could press the button, he heard Jiang SE’s voice.

“Hello,” he said.

This was the first time Jiang Zhiyuan had heard her speak to him like this. At this moment, he had forgotten where he was and everything that had happened in the first half of his life. He had even forgotten who he was. He could not even hear his own heartbeat and breathing. He clutched the note tightly and tried his best to control his breathing, afraid that he would be too loud and drown out her voice.

He had seen Jiang se on television before and heard her speak to him. There was one time when he could not control himself. He had seen her up close when she was meeting Feng Nan. He had once pushed Feng Nan, who had tried to hurt her, away and walked past her.

However, Jiang Zhiyuan had never felt so deeply before. His daughter was talking to him.

He pressed his ear even closer to the receiver, almost greedily listening to her speak, even if it was just listening to her breathing through the receiver.

“Hello, may I know who this is?”

She said again. He wanted to clench his teeth, but he felt that his strength was not in his heart.

He subconsciously clenched the cigarette that was still burning tightly. The red-hot flame burned his skin and made a sizzling sound. The pain brought him back to his senses and calmed him down.

He shouldn’t have made this call. He couldn’t speak.

“Hello?”

She was already a little suspicious, and her tone gradually became more vigilant. He smiled.

This was the right thing to do. It was an unfamiliar number, so she shouldn’t take it too lightly. It was a pity that he couldn’t tell her a single Word of the father’s warning.

He suddenly felt a little regretful. Perhaps too many things had happened recently, and he could no longer be as calm as before.

“Sese?”

Someone’s voice came from the other end of the phone. It sounded like her manager, Xia Chaoqun, who was beside her.

Jiang Zhiyuan had investigated this woman’s existence before. She was very capable and treated her very well, protecting her in every way possible.

“Did someone call?”

Asked Xia Chaoqun. She had been discussing some matters with mo Anqi and the others. When she heard Jiang SE’s conversation, she came over to take a look. Jiang se was holding her phone, but it was quiet on the other end. It was a call from an unknown number. The caller did not say anything either.

This mobile number of hers was her private number. PEI Yi had handled it for her and the information was absolutely confidential. No one would get their hands on her information and call her to harass her.

“There’s no sound,”

She shook her head and smiled, ”

“Maybe it’s the wrong number.”

When she said this, she hung up the phone.

“Sleep early. I’ll call Anqi and the others to my room to continue the discussion.”

Xia Chaoqun leaned against the door and watched as she lowered her head and switched off her phone. He then shifted his gaze away.”There’s still a lot of things to do tomorrow.”

The red carpet event the next day was extremely important. Jiang se would be in front of every cameraman around the world. She had to be in her best state of mind so that everyone could see China’s elegance.

Jiang se nodded. Xia Chaoqun closed the door. The sound of a group of people packing their things could be heard from next door. She was still thinking about the silent phone call from the other party.

On the last day of the closing ceremony of ‘centuries-old filmmaker’, the originally extremely wide square in front of the sacred auditorium had been properly decorated.

A 100-meter-long red carpet connected the sacred auditorium’s Lounge to the official theater, and heavily armed guards maintained the order at the scene.

On both sides of the red carpet were arranged seats for the media, divided by the influence of the media, and each media seat could only accommodate two people at most.

A long cordon was set up behind the media, and the circled spots were reserved for the lucky people from all over the world who had successfully applied for admission on the official website of ‘century of cinema’. They would apply for admission on the official website and be invited to personally witness this once-in-three-years event. After the stars finished walking the red carpet, they would be lucky enough to enter the sacred Great Hall to witness the awards ceremony.

After Tao Tao arrived in the United States, she was so excited that she couldn’t sleep for the past two days. She had been in the industry for many years and had dealt with many big and small celebrities. However, this was the first year that long Xing Studios had successfully applied for an interview with ‘century-old filmmaker’.

If it wasn’t for her identity as a ‘candidate’ for the media, with the qualifications of Dragon travel Studios, it might have been difficult for Tao Tao to enter this place openly even after a few more years of such events.

Although long Xing studio had made a name for itself in the country in recent years and had won several exclusive headlines, in terms of strength and status, it was still ranked last among the hundreds of media outlets invited by ‘century-old filmmaker’.

There was only one interview spot allocated to Dragon travel Studios, and it was located at the outermost part of the street.

This was not a good location. The biggest advantage was that it was the closest to the temporary lounge for celebrities. Every celebrity who was about to step onto the red carpet would be starting their journey from here.

Standing on her tiptoes from where Tao Tao was standing, she could vaguely see the bright Starlight in the hall in the distance.

There were still a few hours before the actual awards ceremony. Tao Tao had to take on all the interview work alone today. She was a little excited. It felt like she had returned to her time as a young newcomer, looking forward to seeing the celebrities appear on the red carpet.

She was trying to guess what kind of gown Jiang se would wear today. Jiang se had always been well-dressed. Whenever she went out, her style would always be stunning. She was well-dressed, elegant, and charming. In Tao Tao’s eyes, she might be the brightest star at such a grand event.

Time passed by. At noon, the venue staff had already decorated the two sides of the red carpet with flowers and other items, which meant that the time to walk the red carpet was coming.

Centuries-old filmmaker’s cameras were already aimed at the red carpet, broadcasting tonight’s closing ceremony to the world’s audience. Everyone’s performance and subsequent excellent works would be shown to the eyes of hundreds of millions of viewers around the world.

It was getting closer and closer to the red carpet. Xia Chaoqun looked at the time and saw that there were still more than two hours before Jiang se would enter the venue.

She had already put on her makeup and dress. In order not to show her small belly, she had not eaten for nearly 20 hours.

There were buffets and desserts in the lounge, but none of the celebrities dared to eat them. In fact, Jiang se did not even dare to drink too much water to prevent herself from going to the toilet later. She was really thirsty, so she used a straw to moisten her lips.

...

With Jiang SE’s status, even if she had acted in ” God’s salvation “, she should have been scheduled to walk at the worst time of the event. However, she was lucky to have Donald’s support. Donald would be taking her along on the red carpet tonight. Therefore, she was scheduled to walk the red carpet a little later and was considered to be among the most important guests.

The official red carpet event began at 16:00 am local time in the United States. It was held at exactly 1.00 pm. As the time approached, Tao Tao could hardly calm down.

The major media outlets in the media stands were ready. Someone lowered his head and checked the camera lens again and again to avoid any mistakes.

Tao Tao’s hands were shaking as she checked her equipment. Her legs were shaking as she was excited about the upcoming red carpet event.

His cell phone kept vibrating. His Chinese colleagues were probably also watching the live broadcast of the Huaxia TV station at this time. His colleagues in the work group chat were enthusiastically discussing the scene in front of the sacred auditorium.

At this moment, Donald and Chesare had arrived at the lounge. After greeting many familiar faces, they noticed Jiang se sitting in the corner.

The heater was on in the lounge, but she was wearing a shawl and did not say a word.

“Jiang, you’re very beautiful tonight,”

She was wrapped in a silk scarf, and her short hair was combed back. The ends of her hair were permed into an arc, and it looked like her hair was tied up in a bun, revealing her beautiful ears, jawline, and her neck that was as slender as a Swan.

She was not inferior to the White female stars around her. Her skin was so fair that it glowed, and her delicate makeup and smooth skin made her very eye-catching. Compared to the European and American people with high noses and deep eyes, she had a different kind of graceful beauty.

Her dress was wrapped in silk, so it couldn’t be seen clearly. Only the black embroidered fishtail-shaped gauze could be seen at the bottom. A pair of delicate and beautiful calves were faintly visible under the fine gauze, extremely attractive.

...

Jiang se was wearing a pair of stiletto heels of the same color. Even though the diamond-studded platinum chain around her ankles was covered by a thin veil, it still reflected a dazzling luster under the light.

“Thank you,” he said.

Jiang se stood up and gave the two of them a light hug.

Chessaray looked very happy that night. His dark golden hair was neatly combed, and he was wearing a standard white shirt with a black suit and a dark blue tie. He looked elegant and pleasant.

Donder, on the other hand, was wearing a black shirt with a suit of the same color. His slightly curly, light golden short hair was all combed back, revealing his forehead. Even though he was already old, his gestures were still graceful and it was hard to hide his temperament.

Chessaray saw an acquaintance and left after saying goodbye.

“Are you nervous?”

Donald looked at the time, and his assistant found a chair for him to sit down. He obviously had no intention of entertaining the guests in such a social occasion. He even handed his glass to the waiter.

Initially, he had seen Jiang se and her group sitting by themselves. As she was a new face, almost no one came over to greet her. He had wanted to sit with Jiang se to ease her awkwardness.

However, from time to time, a producer or director would approach him to talk to him. While they greeted him, they would also turn to look at Jiang se. They seemed surprised that Donald would become friends with Jiang se over a movie.

He wasn’t an easy person to get close to. Among the actors, he was relatively unsociable.

However, Donald had been in the industry for many years and had maintained a good friendship with many famous directors. Some of the best directors liked to use him when they were preparing films for important awards. It was unexpected that he would maintain a good friendship with a newcomer. It seemed that they were not even acquaintances.

Outside, people had already started to make their way onto the stage. Every celebrity’s appearance instantly stole the attention of many reporters, causing the fans who had received admission tickets to exclaim in surprise.

There were fewer and fewer celebrities in the waiting room. The stars were shining on the red carpet outside. The first stars were guided into the sacred Great Hall by the staff.

Tao Tao had been taking photos for more than half an hour. She had gained a lot tonight. She saved every star who appeared in her camera, afraid to miss anyone who passed by her.

The phone in her pocket had been buzzling with messages ever since she started walking the red carpet half an hour ago. She was so busy that she didn’t have the time to look down.

Jiang se had not appeared yet. Tao Tao could imagine that her colleagues in China were probably waiting for her as well.

Logically speaking, with Jiang SE’s status, she should have made her appearance at the venue earlier. However, more than half of the red carpet’s time had passed and the event was coming to an end. The remaining guests were all important figures. She was worried that something might have changed in Jiang SE’s schedule.

She was so nervous that her palms were sweating. As her thoughts ran wild, she looked at the lounge not far away.

At this time, in the Huaxia Information Network headquarters, media reporters were sitting in the office. The official live broadcast of ‘century-old filmmaker’ was being played on the TV wall in the office. It was jointly commentated by the well-known domestic host, Sheng Jingzhi, and the popular female host of Huaxia TV station.

In the group chat of Huaxia information, Yu Zilin and Guan Mingming had already sent back many photos of the celebrities at the scene. The advantage of being the largest media in the country was fully displayed at this time.
