The National Fairy, soon to beco the national mother-in-law.
Kang Jinse stepped onto the red carpet, not to screams of excitent, but to murmurs of grievance. Kang Jinse’s reputation was poor, and she was almost universally disliked. However, her fa was so great that many shows and production companies sought her out for an elent of surprise.
Kang Jinse didn’t show a hint of embarrassnt and confidently walked onto the red carpet. A reporter directed a microphone toward her and loudly asked, "Miss Kang, did you receive an invitation from the production team?"
This question was downright impolite, essentially questioning if Kang Jinse was crashing the red carpet.
In the past, Kang Jinse had been very proud and disdainful, typically indifferent to journalists. But today, she unusually stopped and said with a smile, "My sister has made it to the finals. As her sister, how could I not co to cheer her on?"
Sister? The reporter seized upon the point and eagerly asked, "So Miss Kang’s sister is also in the program? There hadn’t been any news before. May I ask, your sister is...?"
Kang Jinse just smiled. "It’s a secret; you’ll find out soon enough."
With that cryptic smile, she turned and walked away.
At the end of the red carpet, Shen Xudong, who was about to go inside, turned and glanced over. Recognizing the figure, his pupils suddenly constricted, his expression unreadable.
Shen Luokui looked at him and asked, "Dad, what are you looking at?"
Following his gaze and seeing Kang Jinse, she sneered dismissively, "It’s her. She has the audacity to show up here. I feel embarrassed just standing beside her. But what’s she doing here?"
Shen Xudong, as if nothing had happened, turned his head away and said indifferently, "Let’s go."
Following Kang Jinse’s appearance, the internet exploded with speculation. Kang Jinse’s sister had also joined the program and made it to the finals. Viewers quickly started guessing among the ten finalists.
The program’s dark horse, known as the Angel Singer, was Kang Le. Who would have imagined that Kang Le, apparently so pure and innocent, was actually Kang Jinse’s sister?
Kang Le’s fans were in denial. "How could our Le baby possibly have such a sister? Besides, even if they are sisters, Kang Jinse is Kang Jinse, and Kang Le is Kang Le. Don’t lump them together."
Then soone spilled the beans online: Kang Le was a stage na; her real na was Kang Jinxian, Kang Jinse’s biological sister and the adopted daughter of the Yun Family.
A mistress of the brother from her adoptive family—this relationship—was simply a complete ss.
Then soone photoshopped evidence, a picture from Kang Jinxian’s coming-of-age ceremony at eighteen where Yun Shen and Yun Shu were present alongside Kang Jinse. The girl dressed like a princess in the photo was none other than Kang Le, the new singing sensation. The evidence was incontrovertible, and the fans had no rebuttal.
If Kang Jinxian was an adopted daughter of the Yun Family, that would make her the nominal aunt of Ji Yunya. Kang Jinse, being Ji Yunya’s father’s mistress and perhaps soon-to-be stepmother, wound the family relations back upon themselves. The family of the number one socialite was truly complicated. It was unclear if the top socialite would appear tonight.
While awaiting the start of the event, the internet focused on the relationship between the two sisters, Kang Jinxian and Kang Jinse. Their nas quickly topped the trending searches, even pushing Kang Jinxian’s na up the ranks.
Subsequently, netizens uncovered that the hobody goddess who accidentally went viral with a photo online was none other than Kang Jinxian, now known as Kang Le.
Then two more cars pulled up.
Appearing this ti were Ming Han and Mai Jiehui, one a movie king of the film industry, the other pop royalty, both gastars in their respective fields, commanding both talent and popularity. Their joint arrival set the red carpet ablaze with incessant screams, sounding almost fanatical.
The photographers were worn out from snapping pictures, their ears nearly deafened by the noise.
Years ago, when they both appeared on a show together, Mai Jiehui was in his pri, and Ming Han was a fresh and popular young talent. Years later, with Mai Jiehui now legendary in the music scene and Ming Han adorned with the title of movie king, their reunion struck a nostalgic chord.
With ti pressing on, they both still radiated glamour, a stardom so intense it deterred the onlookers. On the red carpet that night, they were the Superstars.
The internet was abuzz again because of their arrival, completely energized.
Mai Zheng looked at the live feed on his phone and smirked, "What an honor it is to have your august presence. Truly humbling for this humble one." His words were mocking, but inside he was quite pleased.
Mai Jiehui always nagged at him for not being serious about his career, insisting he study abroad. But Mai Zheng refused and surreptitiously went to the Mainland to join a program. When Mai Jiehui found out, he was furious, thinking Mai Zheng was too young and lacking solid foundations, fearing that early fa might lead to an unsustainable career. He wanted Mai Zheng to get a strong foundation abroad, step by step, steadily and reliably.
