Rebirth from the Ashes

On stage, Jiang Yin accepted the trophy from the man and smiled. “Since my favorite student is tied up with something at present, as her teacher, I shall accept this award on her behalf. Thank you for showing her love, everyone.”

It was another round of thunderous applause from the audience.

The major celebrities present were of superior existence in the eyes of fans. However, they were only fans of Jiang Yin and Fu Qingye right now. Transforming into fanatical diehard supporters, they shouted their names in excitement.

After the award was presented, Li Jingran watched as Fu Qingye and Jiang Yin stepped off the stage while sharing small talk and laughter. She whispered to her daughter. “Come with me.”

Getting on her feet, Su Ruowan’s emotions were running high, and her heart was racing at the thought of meeting her favorite person in the world.

Mom was a force to be reckoned with, having made a name for herself following her achievement as China’s Film Empress and a veteran in the business. Surely, Mr. Fu would give face to Mom.

Jiang Yin had friends all over the world and rubbed shoulders with many international megastars. No one would say no to mingling with big-named fashion designers for better fashion resources after all.

She had met Fu Qingye a couple of times, being tasked with creating his look and design. Nevertheless, she would not call herself a friend of his.

“You have an awesome student.” Fu Qingye offered heartfelt praise before politely grinning. My mother loves the evening gown.”

“Thank you for your mother’s appreciation. I will send her your regards.” Jiang Yin replied with a smile.

Truth be told, Jiang Yin was tempted to meet her student in the flesh. However, Yuan Yu refused to budge to this day.

Well, Jiang Yin was not far from giving Yuan Yu a going-over if he continued to withhold the truth!

“I wonder if Ms. Cai Ni has any intentions of selling the gown to me?” Fu Qingye was taken back to the feelings of awe he had when he first saw the dress.

Mother showed him a photograph and spoke of how in love she was.

Ever since Father went missing, he had not seen her fancying or geting attached to anything for a while.

“I’ll help you ask.” Jiang Yin politely answered.

This man beside her was God’s favored son, standing on top of the food chain in terms of the world’s wealthiest. Despite being blessed with true blue blood, he remained gracious.

To Jiang Yin, a man of his status was poles apart and a distance from her. He was out of her league, nor would she even dare to be in the same league.

Li Jingran, with Su Ruowan alongside, came their way. While approaching, she greeted them with a smile. “Ms. Jiang.”

To show respect, Jiang Yin nodded and let out an indifferent yet polite smile. “Hello, Ms. Li.”

“Oh, Mr. Fu’s here too!” Seemingly only noticing Fu Qingye now, Li Jingran greeted in pleasant surprise. “I’ve heard so much about you. It’s a pleasure to finally see you.”

Fu Qingye faintly swept a glance at her before nodding his head in an exchange of greetings.

With Su Ruowan’s wish to meet her god in the flesh granted at last, she realized that the man was more perfect than when he was behind the camera or on stage.

Hot with emotions, she tried to pull herself together before gracefully walking up. Flashing the gentleman her best pearly whites, Su Ruowan uttered in a sweet voice, “Mr. Fu, I’m your loyal fan. I…”

“Sorry, I don’t give out autographs.” Fu Qingye cut her off while letting out an air of unapproachable chilliness and distance. He presented his gentlemanly side to Jiang Yin. “Ms. Jiang, I need to excuse myself to attend to some matters.”

He then turned to leave, leaving Li Jingran and Su Ruowan without a chance to react.
