After the big show, there is also an after party as usual.

After party invitations are harder to get than show tickets, and those artists who follow the media to the show are naturally not invited. Cheng Xingfei held the brand invitation in his hand, and the publicist sent the invitation letter to Miss P early.

The party was held directly at the backstage of the show. The messy backstage had been cleaned up long ago. The champagne tower and dessert table were neatly stacked together for the convenience of guests to use at any time.

Cheng Xingfei went back to the hotel to change into a new set of looks, a tube top mermaid skirt with a small tulle shawl, her long hair rolled up, revealing the crystal pearl pendants beside her ears, making her look even more charming.

Because of the delay in the hotel, when she entered the venue, almost all the guests had already arrived.

In order to tuck herself into this smallest mermaid dress, Cheng Xingfei didn't eat dinner, her eyes lingered on the salmon tartare embellished with gold leaf, and finally she could only hold a glass of champagne to moisten her throat.

Ms. P is the most sociable. After entering the venue, she sent a circle of business cards like a butterfly, and took Cheng Xingfei to say hello to the brand's PR. The public relations director took the initiative to recommend them to say hi to the chief designer.

Vossoe's new chief designer is called Joseph, who is just in his early fifties, but he has full hair and is very talkative.

Cheng Xingfei stretched out her hand gracefully and shook hands with him. Joseph kissed the back of her hand lightly, and jokingly said, "Cheng, I've heard your name before, and they all call you Princess Huaguo. Your Highness, I hope you will be at the party." Have fun."

Immediately, a photographer waiting by the side took a group photo for them with a SLR camera. In the photo, this young actress from Huaguo looks like a bright moon, with clear and clear eyes.

Joseph still had a lot of entertainment to do next, he only had a few words with Cheng Xingfei, and then left in a hurry.

But even with only a few words, Ms. P is still very excited.

She was secretly happy, and whispered: "The chief designer is so satisfied with you, Xingfei, I think the title of the brand ambassador this time must belong to you."

The cooperation between celebrities and brands can be divided into several grades. The highest one is naturally "global spokesperson", the next one is brand ambassador, and the next one is close friend and branch promotion.

With Cheng Xingfei's current reputation, Ms. P doesn't even think about the level below a close friend. Although the global spokesperson has been taken away by Shen Yuxiu in advance, if Cheng Xingfei can get the Huaguo brand ambassador, it will be a very valuable thing

This will be Cheng Xingfei's first high-end luxury brand title, and Ms. P attaches great importance to it.

Ms. P looked around in the arena: "Strange, why don't you see Shen Yuxiu? He is the global spokesperson. I thought he would definitely attend this kind of occasion."

Hearing the familiar name, Cheng Xingfei's eyes moved: "Maybe he thinks this kind of occasion is too noisy, so he doesn't like to come. I heard that he has a very cold personality, and I don't know him well. It would be ugly if he used to do it."

Miss P saw that she was so clueless, she shook her head again and again: "Xing Fei, I know you don't like to socialize, but Shen Yuxiu is different. He is the youngest movie star in history and has awards, so you should learn acting skills from him." , There is no harm in talking more, besides, you will definitely have further cooperation in brand advertising in the future, and getting in touch now will also help you expand your network."

Cheng Xingfei nodded, but seeing her expression, Miss P felt that she must not have listened.

never mind. Sister P comforted herself: Artists have a variety of personalities, if every artist is good at socializing and building relationships, then why do you need a manager.

The two of them stayed at the party for more than an hour. Ms. P sent all the business card holders which were empty, and then sent back a phone full of contact information. Sister P was contented, walking vigorously in high heels.

Seeing that Cheng Xingfei was tired, Miss P said goodbye to the PR director, and took her away.

At this time, Sister P didn't know that if she stayed with her artist for two more minutes, she would be able to meet Shen Yingdi, whom she was thinking of so much.

In an inconspicuous corner of the after party backstage, there is a secret box separated by layers of gauze curtains. The lights here are dim, and people sitting in the boxes can see the men and women writhing on the dance floor in the party, but people outside don't know that they are being scrutinized.

There is a circle of soft sofas in the box, and soft music is slowly dancing around. The waiter quietly brought in two glasses of freshly-mixed cocktails, and a young man reached out to take one. Under the light, the liquor showed a magical blue color, similar to his eyes.

He took a sip of the wine in his glass, feeling the burning sensation of the liquid running down his throat.

On the other side of the sofa is Joseph with silver hair. He took another glass of wine and said with a smile: "Yu Xiu, I thought you would rest at the hotel. Don't you hate such occasions?"

The Chinese name was a mouthful for him, but Joseph still worked hard to learn the pronunciation of Shen Yuxiu's name.

Shen Yuxiu put down the wine glass in his hand and replied: "I really don't like this kind of entertainment, but my good manager said that if I don't show up more often, I will become an outdated history textbook."

"I didn't say that." Shen Yuxiu's agent immediately called Qu, "What I said is that you can't live forever in the acting textbook. You are so young, you should have some entertainment for young people. Can you not misinterpret my words?"

Shen Yuxiu: "Then I'd rather live in the textbook, at least there's not so much noise there, a group of people huddled together jumping and jumping. If I have this time, I might as well think about the script."

They were chatting in English, and Joseph could understand it. He interjected: "Yu Xiu, I actually support your manager. You are only twenty-six years old. When I was your age, I was partying every day. Drinking, dating girls, you don't want to live like you are sixty-two years old."

Shen Yuxiu was noncommittal.

Joseph: "If you had come a little earlier, I would have been able to introduce you to another Huaguo actress. She is beautiful and talented, and you can make friends. The PR director told me that they decided to work with that actress Let her be Vessoe's brand ambassador in China, and after you return to China, you will definitely cooperate with her again."

"Oh, what's her name?" Shen Yuxiu finally became interested.

He has been away from China for many years, focusing on his studies. First I studied acting, and then I chose to direct for further study. He used the best actor trophy to prove that he is a good actor ten years ago, but now, he wants to be a good director.

This time, he returned from his studies and planned to prepare his own movie. His agent planned to let him airborne with a high profile, and Vessoe's official announcement of the global spokesperson was the first step. He entered the Huaguo entertainment circle, and to use a more fashionable word, it is called "dimension reduction strike".

It's a pity that the artists he is acquainted with are all seniors who became famous before him. Now he doesn't know any of these young popular artists in Huaguo entertainment circle.

Joseph replied: "The actress's surname is Cheng, and her name is sorry, but your Hua people's name is too difficult to pronounce, so I didn't remember it."

"It's Cheng Xingfei." The manager answered, "I just saw Cheng Xingfei and her manager at the door. Cheng Xingfei is now a top player in Huaguo's entertainment industry. She just finished a drama this summer, and the popularity is very high."

"Cheng Xingfei..." Shen Yuxiu froze for a moment, a vague memory suddenly appeared in his mind.

When he was filming his first film, the past was like a fog, and there was always a petite figure stumbling behind him. Whenever he looked back, she would raise a smiling face and sweetly call him "Brother Shen".

That girl could be nine years old, or ten years old.

He always wears two pigtails, wears a fat school uniform, and obediently carries a big schoolbag. When her father was filming, she moved a small chair and sat beside her to do her homework, and the apple box containing the equipment was her desk.

Shen Yuxiu's impression of her is very vague, she only remembers that she has a pair of clear eyes, and when she looks up at him, her face is always red.

only

Shen Yuxiu asked: "You said her surname is Cheng"

The agent nodded: "Yes, you actually know each other"

Shen Yuxiu shook his head: "If the surname is Cheng, then I don't know him."

"ah"

"Do you know that Director Lin has a daughter? Also named Xingfei, Lin Xingfei. When I was filming Director Lin's scenes, I often saw her on the set. The little girl is only this tall." He gestured at the position, "But that was all ten years ago. If I didn't suddenly think of it, I would have forgotten the name."

It must have just been a coincidence.

Cheng Xingfei didn't know that although she hadn't met Shen Yuxiu yet, Shen Yuxiu had already remembered her name.

After finishing her four-day and three-night show trip in Paris, she immediately packed her luggage and boarded the plane back home.

It is most uncomfortable to repeatedly adjust the jet lag in a short period of time, but there is no way, the artist's job is to keep running around, and she still has an S-level variety show to be recorded, so she cannot be absent.

Even though the schedule was so hasty, Cheng Xingfei did not forget to bring a gift for Hua Zhao.

Hua Zhao didn't have time to come to Paris, so Cheng Xingfei took Paris back to Hua Zhao.

Various flavors of chocolate, colorful macarons, a pen, a bottle of red wine, and an oil painting taken from a gallery. Cheng Xingfei wanted to give Her Royal Highness all the good things he had seen.

Before boarding the plane, she saw a Paris limited edition Lego in the children's zone at the airport. The big box had the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe printed on it, which would definitely make Hua Zhao happy.

Ms. P said sourly: "Oh, hey, as expected, only the newcomers are smiling, but the old ones are crying."

Cheng Xingfei hurriedly took out a limited-edition Hermès silk scarf that she had bought secretly, and finally coaxed Miss P to smile.

After more than ten hours of flying, the plane finally landed at Huaguo Capital Airport.

Due to the heavy rain in Paris, the plane took off and was delayed. It was originally scheduled to land at 7:00 pm China time, but it actually landed at 11:00 pm.

Before leaving the airport, I heard the bustle and bustle in the airport reception hall. It turned out that Cheng Xingfei's flight number for returning home had been leaked, and fans spontaneously came to the airport to organize a pick-up.

Sister P saw Cheng Xingfei's tired face, so she made the decision, "You are so tired, I think otherwise, don't go to the lobby, let's go directly to the VIP passage."

The airport has a special passageway for VIPs. Cars are parked directly outside the passageway, and the idlers are kept away from it. Fans will definitely not be disturbed.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Xingfei shook his head and rejected her proposal: "It's too late now, the fans have been waiting for hours, and it's very hard. I always have to show up and have a few words with them, or they'll wait for nothing. It's been so long, isn't it too wronged?"

Ms. P can't say no to her, so she can only agree.

At this moment, Cheng Xingfei's cell phone rang, and she picked it up, and was surprised to find that it was Hua Zhao who called her.

As soon as the phone was connected, Hua Zhao's voice came out excitedly: "Xing Fei, you've landed~"

Cheng Xingfei looked at his watch: "It's almost twelve o'clock, you are still playing games before you go to bed."

"" Hua Zhao was at a loss for words, and Cheng Xingfei could imagine the guilty look through the phone line.

Cheng Xingfei: "Okay, I'm about to leave the airport and I'll be home in an hour. If you're not asleep when I get home, I won't give you the gift."

"" Hua Zhao was surprised and delighted, "Is there any gift from Paris?"

"Yes, there are chocolates, hats, and your favorite Lego"

Hua Zhao yelled happily. Although Cheng Xingfei didn't turn on the speakerphone, the yell still pierced through the phone and stabbed at Miss P next to her.

Miss P covered her ears: "Xingfei, hurry up, hang up the phone. People who don't know think you have raised a screaming chicken at home."

Really screaming Ji Huazhao: ""

Screaming Ji said embarrassingly: "Don't hang up the phone yet. I read on Weibo that there are a lot of people picking you up at the airport. I'm afraid your assistant won't be able to protect you. I'll ask Zhuo Yi to pick you up at the airport."

Cheng Xingfei hung up the phone and searched for a while, and sure enough, he saw a tall and strong figure standing in the pick-up passage.

Zhuo Yi was too eye-catching.

He was wearing a black suit, standing with his hands tied, with a cold and indifferent expression, and a scar winding down his forehead, adding a bit of mystery to him. This man is like a towering giant mountain. Wherever his eyes glanced, the screams of the fans dropped several decibels.

This high-paid nanny, no, the high-paid bodyguard is finally on the job

Now that the night is dark, many fans have left, but there are still hundreds of people gathered in the reception hall.

The moment Cheng Xingfei walked out of the passage, countless flashing lights rushed towards his face, forming a whole curtain of light. Cheng Xingfei is familiar with such battles, even though the lights are dazzling, she still maintains an impeccable smile and waves to the fans.

Her appearance was like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan, causing the whole crowd to boil and explode instantly. Countless voices gathered together, and the sound wave was louder than the sound.

"Ah sister is out"

"Xingfei Xingfei"

"Sister, please accept my gift"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

But more people could no longer shout out complete sentences. They screamed and expressed their love for Cheng Xingfei with super high decibels.

Cheng Xingfei gave Sister P a look, and that look said: Look, this is my scream girl.

Ms. p: ""

Zhuo Yi, who was guarding behind him, had a serious expression. It was only at this moment that he fully realized how popular Cheng Xingfei was, and how heavy the burden on his shoulders was as a star bodyguard.

Cheng Xingfei couldn't stay at the door all the time, the airport security guards formed a human wall hand in hand, and escorted Cheng Xingfei out slowly. Sister P and Zhuo Yi followed closely behind, protecting her from left to right.

Miss P said: "Thank you for coming to pick up the plane. Xingfei is very happy to see you. But Xingfei is already very tired. Please make room for a little bit, okay?"

However, the fanatical fans who see idols can't control their behavior.

Hundreds of people gathered together, and the people behind the crowd pushed forward desperately, wanting to see their idol up close. The people who were originally in the front row also wanted to move forward, wanting to send their presents to Cheng Xingfei.

In addition, there were a lot of passengers in the airport, and there were many passengers who joined in the fun, so the whole crowd became more and more crowded. The security guards who were originally guarding Cheng Xingfei were scattered by the swarming crowd accidentally. Even Ms. P was squeezed away by the crowd

"Oops"

In the crowd, only the tall bodyguard was left tightly protecting the petite girl. He put his arm around her shoulder and pushed aside the crowd for him with the other. Cheng Xingfei was struggling, no matter which direction she went, there were enthusiastic fans reaching out to her

Unknowingly, they deviated from their original direction, and when Cheng Xingfei realized it, they actually came to a staircase.

"Not here." Cheng Xingfei hastily tugged on La Zhuoyi's sleeve, motioning him to bow his head. She tiptoed to his ear, raised her voice and said, "My nanny car is next to Exit No. 2, no need to take the stairs"

Zhuo Yi nodded, and was about to take her back, but the moment he turned his head, a long selfie stick suddenly stretched out from the crowd, and it was directly in front of Cheng Xingfei

On the top of the selfie stick was fixed a mobile phone with a super-large screen, like a heavy brick, hitting Cheng Xingfei's brow bone head-on

Cheng Xingfei was caught off guard, and was hit on the head by the mobile phone, and let out a cry of pain.

She didn't have time to look at the road, and she didn't know whose shoes she stepped on. Her feet were soft, and she suddenly fell to the side. But beside her, there were high steps.

"ah"

"oh my god"

"elder sister"

In the panic, none of the fans watching could hold Cheng Xingfei, they could only watch Cheng Xingfei fall down the steps

No, there is a figure rushing over

Zhuo Yi jumped forward and grabbed Cheng Xingfei's hand

However, the stairs are too high, even though Zhuo Yi reacted quickly enough, he still couldn't stop the downward trend.

Amid the screams of all the fans, the tall man dragged the petite girl into his arms, and then used himself as a human cushion to cushion her

1st order 2nd order 3rd order

They rolled down more than a dozen steps in this way, until Zhuo Yi found a chance to grab the guardrail next to him, and finally managed to get down.

He was half lying on the ground in embarrassment, grabbing the guardrail with one hand and wrapping his arms around the girl's waist with the other.

"Miss Cheng, are you okay?" He lowered his head and asked for the first time, but there was no reply

Cheng Xingfei closed his eyes tightly, and fell on his shoulder without knowing it.

A stream of blood trickled down her forehead
