Carrying The Villains Baby 2

At these big receptions, all kinds of politicians, business people, and celebrities were dressed up like peacocks. These dignified, elegant ladies and cultured gentlemens naturally presented their best selves.

With an arm around Jungkook’s arm and occasionally smiling,, Ye Lisa held a glass of wine as she mingled with the other guests.

In this type of scene, although there were many people that were curious about Jungkook's wife and wanted to make friends with her, they limited themselves to superficial, small talk under the eyes of the public.

After all, the people here were all astute and had seen enough of human relationships. In their eyes, Ye Lisa was a little white rabbit that had strayed into a wolf pack, the type that was easiest to fool and get along with. If they could become friends with Ye Lisa, they could gain a connection to the Jeon’s.

Wave after wave of guest came over to chat with Jungkook and Ye Lisa. Ye Lisa had an excellent, dignified bearing. Her words had a sense of propriety, and she was neither obsequious nor supercilious. Standing next to Jungkook, she brilliantly displayed her status as Mrs. Jeon.

In a corner of the reception, there were several women dressed up beautifully in expensive evening gowns and quietly chatting amongst themselves. These women were charming and elegant. Their smiles were like blossoming flowers. They were like a beautiful scenery and attracted many people to halt at the sight of them.

Shen Eunha was the Shen’s granddaughter and the most popular actress in the entertainment industry, so there was naturally a place for her at this reception.

She was currently swirling the glass of red wine in her hand and watching Jungkook and Ye Lisa, who were exchanging pleasantries with other guests. Her gaze was indecipherable.

“Eunha, I heard that you recently acted in a movie by Director Ming Ke? Are you planning on going for next year’s Film Empress title?”

The women surrounding Shen Eunha were all daughters from rich families that had close relationship with each other. They were well-matched in social status and would unite when faced with a common enemy.

Shen Eunba absent-mindedly said, “En.”

“Do you even need to ask that? A movie director by Ming Ke and it's our Weiyin who’s playing the female lead. If you survey the entertainment industry, there’s no actress comparable to Eunha. In my opinion, Eunba is definitely going to win the title of Film Empress!”

“Don’t compare me to the women in the entertainment industry,” Shen Eunha lightly said. Towards this, she had a deep disdain.

Only people that entered the entertainment industry knew what was really going on in their industry. It was exactly because Shen Eunha had gone deep into the entertainment industry and had seen too many dirty things that she turned her nose up at those actors and actresses.

She was a daughter of the Shen’s and the Shen’s prestige was still there. As soon as she debuted, she received a steady stream of resources. Everyone was eager to fawn over her. Who would dare pressure her to exchange s*xual favors for roles?

However, even knowing this, Shen Eunha couldn’t bear to stay away from that cesspool. She couldn’t do without the entertainment industry’s glamor, the audience’s applause, her fans’ worship, and the public’s praise. There was no other place where she could shine so brightly.

“Yes, yes, yes, those actresses aren’t good enough to compare to our Weiyin. But Eunba, I heard bad rumors about the Shen’s recently. Do you know about them?”

Surprised, Shen Eunha stopped swirling her glass of wine red. The abrupt stop of her motion caused the red wine to splash out.

“What rumors?” Shen Eunha asked in a casual tone, but all of her attention was focused on that woman.

The woman looked hesitant and quietly said, “I heard… that a major flaw appeared in one of the Shen's investments and it won’t be possible to get back the funds. Also… That they made a mistake in the overall direction of their investments. They’re impacted by the financial crisis…”
