Chapter 128: Chapter 124: That’s Good, This Round Isn’t a Loss_2
Without lingering any longer, Shen Jingchuan quickly carried Wenyan back to his car.
anwhile, unnoticed by all, a shadowy figure was quietly observing everything that was happening here.
After everyone had left, the figure also scaled the wall to escape the scene.
–
There was an award ceremony tonight.
Shen Jinghe, invited as a celebrity presenter, was attending.
While waiting backstage, he inadvertently spotted a familiar face in the back row—Hou Wenbin.
But if his mory served him right!
Wenyan had arranged to et Hou Wenbin tonight! Right now, they should be sitting together discussing business.
So how could Hou Wenbin be here?
Could it be that they had already finished their talk? But the timing didn’t add up.
With this in mind, Shen Jinghe felt perplexed.
He imdiately took out his phone and sent a ssage to Wenyan, asking if she was currently talking business with Hou Wenbin.
But Wenyan, who usually replied instantly, did not respond this ti.
After waiting a while longer, Shen Jinghe completely lost his patience.
He decisively made a voice call to Wenyan.
But the phone rang for a long ti without her picking up, not just the voice call. Later, Shen Jinghe also phoned Wenyan, but the result was the sa—no one answered.
This was highly abnormal!
Shen Jinghe realized that sothing might be amiss, and it was very possible that Wenyan had been deceived!
It could be that soone impersonating Hou Wenbin had arranged to et Wenyan, and the irony was that he had reassured her when she ca to him for advice, telling her Hou Wenbin was trustworthy.
The more he thought about it, the more agitated Shen Jinghe beca. While the ceremony was still going on, he imdiately stood up and left his seat.
He headed straight for Hou Wenbin in the back row, drawing curious and surprised glances from other attendees in the industry.
But with an ominous premonition in his heart, he was already past caring about anything else.
Soon he reached Hou Wenbin. Dispensing with pleasantries, he directly asked,
“Weren’t you supposed to et Wenyan tonight?”
Hou Wenbin was stunned by the question.
He looked confused as he furrowed his brows, “What do you an? et Wenyan? I don’t understand. Are you mistaken?”
“I am not mistaken! Can you tell
what ti you arrived tonight? It’s very important to .”
Although Shen Jinghe seed baffling to him, he appeared to be in such a hurry.
So Hou Wenbin answered truthfully, “Soti after seven, if I rember correctly. I think I ca in right before or after you. What’s up?”
Shen Jinghe didn’t answer Hou Wenbin’s question but abruptly stood up and left the audience quickly.
As he moved, he continued dialing Wenyan’s number.
Even being tricked into signing a bad contract wouldn’t matter, but being unable to reach her at all worried Shen Jinghe.
He honestly didn’t even know where to start looking for Wenyan, but he just couldn’t stay at the venue any longer.
The commotion he caused was significant, and the waiting manager noticed his unusual behavior and hurried over.
“Jinghe, where are you off to? You’re about to go on stage to present the award!”
“I’m not presenting it, let the organizers know for . Say I’ve got an ergency and must leave imdiately.”
“Now?” The manager looked troubled, “It’s only a few minutes until your turn. Can’t you wait even that long? We could have inford the organizers a day before or even a few hours earlier without any issue, but it’s just minutes now. You could get blacklisted for this!”
“There’s a family ergency!” Still receiving no answer on the phone, Shen Jinghe erupted with frustrated urgency, “Let them blacklist . I don’t care. I have to leave right this mont!”
Although Shen Jinghe could be proud and sotis even sharp-tongued, his manager had never seen him this loud and angry before.
But putting oneself in his shoes, with a family ergency, there was certainly cause for urgency.
Despite feeling helpless, the manager expressed understanding, “Okay, then. You go handle your family issue, and I’ll quickly contact the organizers to cover for you.”
“Thanks!” Shen Jinghe wasn’t unreasonable, “It’s my fault this ti. Tell the organizers if they need
for anything in the future, I definitely won’t turn them down. I’m off; this is in your hands now.”
After speaking, Shen Jinghe reached up and pulled off the tie from around his neck.
Amidst a flurry of flashbulbs and cara lenses, he hastily left the venue.
To make matters worse, a crowd of entertainnt reporters and die-hard fans were waiting outside the venue, continuously chasing him to record and take photos, which greatly hindered his exit.
