Ming Shu finished her conversation and managed to slip away to eat.

In a while, she'd have a lot of things to do, so she had to be full.

Therefore, when Jiang Xun found his sister, Jiang Nian was eating in the corner.

He looked around and found that no one paid her any mind. He walked toward her, coughed with a hand over his mouth, and reminded her in a low voice, "Niannian, behave yourself."

"I'm hungry," Ming Shu answered in an unclear voice.

"You ate so much this morning, you're still hungry now?" Jiang Xun was confused. He remembered her eating a lot before. Was her stomach a bottomless pit?

In the past, when she was still at home, he had never seen this.

As a star, wasn't she afraid of becoming fat?

Ming Shu ate the last piece of dessert on her plate. She shook the empty plate and said, "You're not me. I'm just hungry. What's wrong?"

I can't even eat in peace.

"..."

Jiang Xun glanced behind him and said, "You're going to give a public speech. Don't eat too much in case you get fat."

Ming Shu continued to smile. "Anyhow, it's not you who are going to be fat."

"..." He was deluded to think she had changed. She just quarreled with him in another way.

The temperature around Jiang Xun dropped a little and his face became sour.

Ming Shu stepped back. Is he going to be bad?

How about I fight him first?

Ming Shu was considering the feasibility of that when Jiang Xun left. From head to toe, all of him let strangers know not to come close and acquaintances not to bother him. Where he passed, the crowd couldn't help but make way for him.

Ming Shu used the empty plate as a fan. What's wrong with him?

Let him go. I'm hungry.

...

"Let's welcome Miss Jiang to speak. Journalists can ask questions afterward, but please be quiet and wait for now." The host's voice was sweet and, as she spoke, the light focused on Ming Shu.

Ming Shu hid the plate behind her back at once. She stepped aside to put it on the table behind her. After that, she walked to the stage with a smile on her face.

Jiang Xun had told her what to say. She just needed to recite it.

After the speech, it was time for the journalists to ask questions.

Ming Shu pointed at somebody randomly.

"Miss Jiang, there was a rumor about you and Mr. Zhou. Is he your boyfriend?"

"Mr. Zhou?" Who? Do I know him? The Host had been gossiped about with so many people and some of them even had the same first name. How could she know who Mr. Zhou was. "Next question."

"..." The journalist was astonished. "Miss Jiang, could you answer my question?"

"Is there any rule that forces me to answer your question?" I just don't want to answer. What can you do to me? "Anyway, I have been gossiped about with many people, how can I remember who Mr. Zhou is. Can you ask a relevant question?"

"..." The journalist was silent. Are you proud of being gossiped about with so many people?

Was this question not relevant? Does she doubt my professional ability?
