Chapter 109
Zhi Yao kept sleeping until late morning.
As soon as she woke up, Pei Chiyao took her to a styling studio to get ready.
This was Zhi Yao's first public appearance after finishing filming "The Legend of the Fox Demon."
When Zhi Yao appeared in front of Pei Chiyao wearing a red off-shoulder gown, not only was Pei Chiyao stunned by her beauty, but everyone in the studio was mesmerized by Zhi Yao as well.
Even the chief designer, who had done makeup and styling for countless handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry and was already numb to beauty, had to admit that she was utterly captivated by Zhi Yao at that moment.
This girl was truly beautiful.
A natural beauty.
Her face was alluring, yet her eyes were so pure and innocent, the combination of purity and desire made her all the more captivating.
Most enchanting was her figure, with perfect proportions, a slender waist and perky breasts that caught everyone's attention.
Pei Chiyao was first stunned, but then became somewhat displeased, especially when he saw the women in the studio all staring at Zhi Yao's chest and waist, he became increasingly impatient.
He had originally chosen this studio because it only had female staff, but he didn't expect...
"Yao Yao," he called out to Zhi Yao softly.
It was Zhi Yao's first time dressing so formally, and she felt a bit uncomfortable.
When she heard Pei Chiyao's voice, it was like grasping a lifeline, she hurriedly walked over and hugged his waist, hiding in his embrace like an obedient little kitten.
Pei Chiyao gently stroked Zhi Yao's head, then turned to the stylists who seemed to have stumbled upon some juicy gossip, and said, "Get a shawl."
It took a full minute before the stylist finally snapped out of her daze and went to get the shawl.
Zhi Yao draped the shawl over herself, covering her alluring figure, and Pei Chiyao finally felt more at ease.
Although the shawl concealed Zhi Yao's tempting curves, it did not diminish her beauty.
The wine-red shawl complemented her snow-white complexion and cascading dark hair, making her breathtakingly beautiful.
Pei Chiyao glanced at his watch and felt it was about time to leave, so he prepared to take Zhi Yao away.
Just as they were about to leave, the stylist suddenly felt that Zhi Yao's neck looked a bit bare and hurriedly said, "Please wait a moment."
She stood there and studied Zhi Yao for three seconds, finally deciding to take out her prized possession.
It was a starry necklace, adorned with several six-pointed stars studded with dazzling diamonds. Worn by Zhi Yao, it made her radiant and glamorous.
It wasn't until Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao left that the stylist finally came to her senses. "She looks so beautiful, I used to think no one could do justice to my prized necklace, but today I've finally seen someone worthy of it!"
The other stylists also snapped out of their shocked daze from gobbling up the juicy gossip.
Suddenly, one of them said, "Wait, wait a minute, Linda, didn't Miss Shen also book that necklace for today?"
...
When they arrived at the film festival, many celebrities had already gathered.
A thick red carpet was laid out on the ground, and the surrounding camera flashes were almost blinding.
Yet the stars standing on the red carpet remained composed and graceful, their beauty captivating despite the barrage of flashing lights.
Zhi Yao sat in the car, nervously fidgeting with her hands.
Pei Chiyao reached out and covered her slightly cold hands, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
This was her first time attending such an event, and she was already extremely nervous.
Adding to her anxiety was the fact that Pei Chiyao had made their relationship public the day before.
"If you're scared, just hold my hand tightly later."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car door was opened from the outside, and Pei Chiyao stepped out first.
Soon after, he turned around and extended his hand to Zhi Yao, intending to help her out of the car.
The already intense camera flashes became even brighter the moment they saw Pei Chiyao, flashing relentlessly without pause.
Zhi Yao took a deep breath, and everyone saw a frost-like slender wrist and delicate hand reach out.
At that moment, almost everyone held their breath.
Immediately after, Zhi Yao, clad in a red gown, stepped out of the car.
Her beauty stunned everyone present at that moment.
For a while, the reporters were so captivated that they even forgot to press the shutter buttons.
It wasn't until Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao reached the center of the red carpet that the reporters finally reacted, frantically taking pictures of the two.
Pei Chiyao was once considered the greatest beauty in the entertainment industry, almost universally attractive to both men and women. Anyone standing next to him would pale in comparison.
But now... the one person who could truly match Pei Chiyao's beauty had appeared.
The two stunning beauties side by side captivated the eyes and hearts of everyone present.
Just as Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao left, four sports cars arrived at the entrance a second later.
Each one was a globally limited edition, and no one expected them to appear here all at once!
Someone exclaimed in surprise, "It's the Ling family!"
...
Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao entered the venue, and as soon as they stepped inside, countless eyes fell upon them.
Especially Zhi Yao, it felt like the people present were about to burn holes through her with their stares.
Looks of envy, admiration, or jealousy surrounded Zhi Yao, and Pei Chiyao held her tightly, shielding her from those prying eyes.
Zhi Yao sat in her seat and curiously looked up at Pei Chiyao, "Pei Chiyao, why did you bring me here?"
She heard from Older Brother Sun that today's film festival was to give Pei Chiyao an award, but it had nothing to do with her, so why did Pei Chiyao insist on bringing her?
Pei Chiyao smiled and was about to respond when suddenly an unexpected guest approached from afar.
"Well, well, it's been a long time."
A somewhat familiar voice rang in Zhi Yao's ears, and she turned her head to see Jiang Zhu.
She tilted her head, feeling like she had seen this person somewhere before.
Seeing Zhi Yao's slightly bewildered expression, Jiang Zhu's lips couldn't help but twitch. "Hey, don't tell me you've forgotten who I am?"
His annoying demeanor jogged Zhi Yao's memory. "Oh, it's you!"
Jiang Zhu studied Zhi Yao with interest. "It's been a while, and you've grown up quite a bit."
He wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but he felt that Zhi Yao seemed to have shed some childishness and gained a more womanly aura.
However, his purpose for coming here was to see Pei Chiyao, so he didn't continue to tease Zhi Yao.
Recalling the reason for his visit, Jiang Zhu immediately regained his composure, "Pei Chiyao, Yi Lian also came to today's event."
Yi Lian? Who was that?
Zhi Yao's curious gaze bounced between the two of them.
