My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 1027

Chapter 1027 Make A Fuss

At six in the evening, the driver opened the car door at the entrance to the venue.

Ning Ran, in a white dress, got out of the vehicle. She looked like a fairy.

As Nan Chen was waiting by the door, his expression changed slightly when he spotted her.

She's not wearing the dress I chose for her. This one is more informal and bright.

Ning Ran applied light makeup and did not adorn herself with heavy accessories; she was only wearing a simple necklace.

It did not seem as if she was attending an important banquet. Instead, it was as though she was hanging out with friends.

Even though she seemed casual, every detail was meticulously refined. Her entire outfit was perfectly put together.

Smiling at Nan Chen, she naturally hooked her arm with his.

“Why didn't you wear the dress I chose for you?” asked Nan Chen.

“Don't I look good in this?”

“You do.”

“Then I see no problem here.” Ning Ran grinned.

Cheng Xiangyun suggested Ning Ran wear the pearl so she could subdue Luo Zhiyi's grandeur.

Initially, she agreed with Cheng Xiangyun, but later, she found it unnecessary.

If she were to wear the pearl, it would be like flaunting her wealth since those who would attend the banquet were dignitaries.

Only the rich would flaunt their wealth; she did not need to do so.

It would be normal to wear pearls on occasions like award ceremonies.

However, it would be a different story if she were to do the same at a private function.

Hence, she figured it would be better to go for a lighter appearance.

To her, the man by a woman's side was a demonstration of their taste. As she had Nan Chen by her side, she need not show off in other aspects.

As if by coincidence, when they entered the venue, they bumped into Luo Zhiyi, who was wearing sparkling accessories. The woman exuded a luxurious aura.

She must have figured that Nan Chen would bring Ning Ran along, so she put in the effort to dress herself up.

Upon seeing her, Ning Ran smiled secretly.

I'm glad I didn't wear the dress Nan Chen chose for me because it's similar to hers.

Both the dresses were black and had nearly the same design. The only difference was Luo Zhiyi's back was more revealing.

“You're here, Nan Chen.”

Luo Zhiyi stared at Nan Chen with warmth, but as her eyes landed on Ning Ran beside him, her gaze hardened.

Taking initiative, Ning Ran greeted, “Hello, Ms. Luo.”

“Hello, Ms. Ning,” Luo Zhiyi replied, forcing a smile.

As they approached Luo Zhiyi, Ning Ran tightened her hold around Nan Chen's arm.

Luo Zhiyi must have arrived early as she told Nan Chen which guests had arrived and which ones were still on the way.

Ning Ran did not know the people Luo Zhiyi just mentioned, as she never intervened in Nan Chen's work.

On the other hand, Luo Zhiyi was an executive in a multinational company. Her social network was beyond comparison for someone like Ning Ran, who had just risen as an actress.

Ning Ran was aware of this.

As Luo Zhiyi had experience in the international field, she possessed a vision and viewpoint that were more extensive than other women, which made her a typical female elite.

However, Ning Ran had no way to confirm whether the journey of Luo Zhiyi becoming an elite was through her own efforts or family resources.

In terms of resources, Luo Zhiyi surpassed Ning Ran by far. They were not on the same level at all.

Luo Zhiyi was well aware of this advantage, so she used this opportunity to showcase it.

Ning Ran could only silently listen to Nan Chen and Luo Zhiyi talk.

As the hostess of the event, it was saddening for Ning Ran not to know anything about the guests.

However, to blend in this circle successfully, she needed time and skills.

She was from a different circle, so it would be hard for her to mingle with them. As an actress, she had no common topic to converse with them.

This might be the reason why Nan Zhengde insisted she study instead of pursuing acting. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

For a brief moment, Ning Ran felt a sense of crisis.

As of now, I'm still unqualified to be the hostess.

As the guests arrived, Nan Chen introduced Ning Ran to them one by one.

Most of them were executives of investment banks, and some were scions of wealthy families. All of them were people with prestigious backgrounds.

Sometime later, a woman arrived. Upon spotting her, Ning Ran was immediately elated.

She was Judy, the actress who won the Best Actress award at an Oscar for her performance in the science fiction movie, Boundless.

At an award ceremony previously, Judy was the one who greeted Ning Ran first, and she had even expressed her wish to collaborate.

Ning Ran did not expect Judy would be there. Even though she was not at the same level as the latter, Ning Ran was happy that a fellow actress was present.

“Hello, Judy. I'm happy to see you again. Welcome to China,” greeted Ning Ran as she approached Judy.

Seeing Ning Ran, Judy walked toward her. “Hello, Ning.”

The two embraced each other. “I cried when Nan Chen proposed to you. Your love is so beautiful. I also want such love.”

Smiling, Ning Ran uttered, “Thank you. You will have one too.”

“Then can I hug your man? He's the most handsome man I've ever laid eyes on.”

“Of course, you can. Actually, there are many more handsome men like him in our country. He's ordinary.”

“Really? Will I be able to meet someone like him, then?”

Ning Ran thought of a man who looked similar to Nan Chen but was a playboy. He was currently entangled in a complex relationship with Lu Jingyuan, so others might not have a chance.

With Judy's appearance, those from abroad surrounded her and greeted her.

Most of the guests were fans of Judy, as they had watched Boundless.

As a result, Judy introduced Ning Ran to her foreign friends, complimenting the latter as the most beautiful actress in the East.

Slowly, Ning Ran opened up to them and informed them that her movie would soon be released internationally.

Having been abroad before, Ning Ran had no problem communicating with them. Added with Judy's help, she could blend in the crowd just fine.

Right at this moment, Rong Yi showed up at the banquet.

Rong Yi was also popular. Despite not being as well-known as Nan Chen in the business circle, he was a renowned pianist.

With Nan Chen as the host of the event, Ning Ran did not expect that Rong Yi would be there.

If other members of the Rong family knew about this, Rong Yi would be criticized once again.

As Ning Ran had been standing for quite a while, she found a place to rest.

She was wearing high heels, so she felt tired.

Holding a glass of wine, Luo Zhiyi approached Ning Ran. “I didn't think you'd come to such an event, Ms. Ning.”

It was clear what she was trying to imply—Ning Ran was not suited to be in settings like this.
