To Love You Again

Chapter 444 - A Seat Taken

Earlier in FC Hall of Q City.

Xiong Wuyue arrived early.

Because she came early, she got a good spot to sit in front. After all, this was a very convenient spot so that when her name was announced by the host, she could easily walk up to the stage.

The seats were reserved with numbers on them, which usually corresponded to whose seat it belonged to. She simply sat on one of the seats near the stairs leading to the stage. She was used to taking liberties with the seats anyway and left all problems to her manager, so she did not think there was any problem with her actions.

There were only few people inside the venue when she first came. They were the staff and the events planner.

But none of the directors, actors, and investors were present yet.

However, as busy as it was, no one seemed to notice Xiong Wuyue. The woman wore thick foundation and makeup-up to cover her yellowish complexion.

However, her face had gotten much thinner, her cheeks appeared a bit sunken, and her chin was more pointed. Also, her body was covered conservatively with padded clothes to make her body appear fuller.

She was afraid that when she went to the stage, the media would see how extremely thin she became, so to avoid that, she purposely hid her body under thick clothes.

Although stylish in design, the clothes looked a bit off in the current fashion season.

Thankfully, the area inside of the hall was sufficiently air-conditioned.

Xiong Wuyue's appearance was vastly different from what she looked like before, so the people did not easily recognize her, unless they met her face to face.

She was initially blocked by the staff in charge of attendance by the entrance, but after quietly saying her name to the staff member, she was finally allowed entrance.

The staff members were busy with their respective responsibilities so they no longer paid any attention to her. Because this was a Sino-American Hollywood film, the production staff were heavily mixed with foreigners.

A little later, the hall began to become crowded as people started flowing in.

The directors, producers, and the actors arrived first, then the investors.

Xiong Wuyue's row started to get filled with people little by little.

One of the second female leads' assistant was looking for her actress's seat, but she found out that the reserved seat was already taken by someone else.

The second female lead who was standing beside her assistant noticed something was off.

"What's wrong? Where's my seat?"

"Ah… that. There's someone sitting on that seat. Did the staff give us the wrong number?"

"Check it again."

"I did check already."

"Just check with the staff again."

"Alright." The assistant approached the staff again to confirm.

After a while, she returned to the second female lead. "We got the right number."

The second female lead frowned.

To be able to secure a spot on this highly anticipated Sino-American Hollywood film, she was naturally a relatively known actress with a strong fan base in the country.

She was usually respected by other actors, and only those who were more popular than her or had a more powerful background would dare to cause troubles for her.

She looked at the woman who was sitting on her seat, unable to tell who the person was. She did not seem to be a famous person or one with powerful background. After all, everyone else had their entourage of assistants and managers with them, but only this person did not have anyone around her.

The second female lead frowned even more.

"Who is she? Is she from the production team, or maybe one of the investors?"

"I don't know. She is surely not part of the production team nor was she a staff member. I'm not sure if she's an investor with a quirk."

As for the cast, she did not seem to be any of them. After all, the production team already announced to them via email those who had taken the roles.

An extra? But then, why would an extra appear here? Not to mention, although the clothes were off-season, they were definitely of high fashion taste and looked high class.

It was not something an extra would wear.

"Ask her then."

In the entertainment world where snakes and dragons gather, one must not carelessly offend another person without checking who the opponent was.

If she accidentally offended someone who could not be offended, then she could only die on the spot.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/to-love-you-again_15549809506927505/a-seat-taken_51023077689063538 for visiting.

"Alright."

The assistant went to the front to politely ask the woman sitting on the actress' seat in the front row.

At this moment, Song Xuantin's team came into the hall with flashes of cameras.

The second female lead's eye lit up. She walked forward, waited for other people to finish greeting the person, and came next.

"Hello, Senior Song. I always wanted to meet you. I am your fan. My name's Su Lin."

In fact, the second female lead entered the industry around four years ago, one year before Song Xuantin did, but did not make any splash back then.

Only more than a year ago was she able to make a comeback and secured a considerable fan base with her reliable acting and good networking in the entertainment industry. She also made sure to deal with her fans well.

Oh, the actress who's recently net red, Song Xuantin thought and warmly smiled.

"Hi, Su Lin. It's nice to finally see you. Are you going to your seat?"

Su Lin was happy to be acquainted with the female lead.

Hugging thighs was her specialty. "Yes. Unfortunately, someone mistook it as hers. My assistant is arranging it now."

"Oh," Song Xuantin nodded.

Then the assistant came back. "Miss Su Lin, she's not an investor. Also, when I asked her to change seats, the woman said it's hers. She is so adamant in taking that seat. I can't persuade her," the assistant worriedly said.

She tried to explain things to the woman, however, the arrogant and despising look in the person's eyes made the assistant know immediately that she could not be reasoned with. She had worked in this industry for years already and met all kinds of personalities and attitudes of actors and actresses, so she knew that look.

"I will just ask for a new arrangement," the assistant added.

"No," Su Lin said, trying to hold back her annoyance.

This was a slap on her face, not to mention in front of a popular actor, who happened to be her idol. What if she was looked down upon because of this?

"That's my seat. If we change to another seat, I'll end up sitting on the second row, which was for the minor leads. It's her who's in the wrong. Talk to her again."

"But..." The assistant looked helpless. Song Xuantin looked at the seat they were talking about.

Her gossipy side sensed that there would be a fight later on.

'So who is that person causing trouble?'

She took a peek. She did not recognize the woman over there but she looked a bit familiar.

"Did she say what her name is?" Song Xuantin asked.

The assistant was taken aback when the sparkling lady at the side suddenly spoke.

This was Song Xuantin! A class A actress!

"Ah, n-no, Teacher Song, she did not say."

(E/N: in china, the staff call the highly respected actors or actresses 'teacher' as a sign of respect)

'Hmm...' Her curiosity turned up.

If Xiao Mei was here, she would definitely land a pre-emptive blow on the curious woman to stop her from whatever impulsive action she would be doing next.

Unfortunately, Xiao Mei went to the side to make a phone call.

"Hold on."

"Teacher Song…"

Song Xuantin's life assistant who was standing behind her tried to intervene but dared not to speak loudly in public.

Elder sister Xiao Mei! Teacher Song is acting up again!

The life assistant cried inwardly.

Song Xuantin 'the busy body' walked to the side to take a closer look at the woman.

Su Lin's eyes brightened.

This goddess was so kind to help her!

She hurried behind Song Xuantin.

"Excuse me, Miss. I believe this seat isn't yours," Song Xuantin said politely to the woman.

The woman, Xiong Wuyue, looked at her with fierce eyes. "I got here early. If you want this seat, you should have come earlier than me."

Song Xuantin: "..."

What did this person take this for? First come, first serve? This was obviously a reserved seat, alright?

The people near them began to notice their interaction. It was Song Xuantin, the female lead and highly popular actress, after all.

"If you have nothing to complain about, then scram. You're blocking the stage."

Su Lin and Song Xuantin: "..."

Su Lin: This woman is too arrogant, talking to the goddess like that!

Song Xuantin: Why does she look so familiar? Where did I see her?

Song Xuantin did not leave immediately but took a good look at her.

Suddenly, her mind finally recognized Xiong Wuyue.

The woman with thick make up and thick clothes was very different from the woman she had seen last time.

'Eh?! Is she really Xiong Wuyue? Why is she here?'

Song Xuantin looked at the woman, surprised at how much this grumpy, princess-disease patient looked a bit… no, she looked way too ugly right now. Her X-ray vision could instantly tell the poor complexion under the heavy makeup.

It suddenly clicked in Song Xuantin's mind.

Xiong Wuyue was not part of the movie cast, but appeared here, where only the invited people and media were allowed entrance.

Song Xuantin suddenly thought of her friend who pushed this role to her and even invested huge amount of funds in this movie just to let her win the role without anyone suppressing her.

Her friend did seem very interested in this movie. It turned out that the trap was here.

"Oh, I see. You can take the seat." She turned to Su Lin. "We can just ask the staff to give you another seat. How about sitting with me?"

Su Lin's eyes suddenly sparkled.

The goddess was really merciful and kind!

From now on, she was my number one goddess! Her goddess could even easily forgive this madwoman who talked back rudely to her. She even gave her a better seat magnanimously. This was the best compensation in the world for her.

The media would surely take note and speculate her friendship with the goddess. With that, she would have ridden the goddess' tail successfully! This was the power of hugging thighs!

"Yes, godde—I mean, Senior Song, it will be my honor to sit with you!"

Song Xuantin took Su Lin and the life assistant away from that area and walked back to her seat before the evil manager could notice her absence.

At this moment, Xiao Mei had just finished her call to Xiong Zhi and walked back.

Song Xuantin asked her the moment she went to her side. "Will she come?"

"Yes. She might be late, but I am sure she will come to support you."

"Hehe."

'Support me, my ass.'

If she did not see that sick-in-the-head, princess disease patient, she would have also thought so.

Humph! Her friend would definitely come here to enjoy a special show.
