This goddamn woman! The person that Father and Mother recognized was her. She was the lady of the Kim family!
She had already followed her father's wishes and sucked up to her by stooping to compromise, yet that woman had never been nice to her. Worse still, she had brought Jennie to attend such an influential occasion today. Clearly, it was meant to make her look bad!
"What's up, Krystal? Why's your aunt so close to that village girl?" Somi frowned.
Krystal forced a laugh. "I'm not sure either. I don't know why but my aunt doesn't seem to quite like me. She's rather close to Jennie instead."
Hyejin chimed in, "You're just too innocent. How could you beat that woman?! She's an Iron Lady, a female version of Zhuge! Your aunt's company is quite huge, and your uncle, Guo Wenbo, is doing quite well abroad too. Of course, Jennie would be scrambling to get such a huge support system!"
Somi pouted indifferently. "What Iron Lady? What female Zhuge ? I think Qiutong's head's not working. Isn't she afraid that people would laugh at her for being so nice to an adopted village girl?"
"I'm telling you that this hillbilly has tricks! She's only been in Glory World Entertainment for less than a year, yet she has defeated Yimo. In fact, thoroughly uprooted her! Now, the entire Glory World Entertainment is under her rule!" Hyejin spoke exaggeratingly.
When she heard this, Krystal looked even more upset.
Even though she was the number one young beauty in Starlight Entertainment, there were still many experienced big shots above her. Some had top-class international resources and opportunities to appear in Hollywood blockbusters. It was not her turn to rise to such fame yet at this point.
On the other hand, it was different for Jennie in Glory World Entertainment, which was famous for their famous rookies, but they lacked big shots. Without Yimo, this rookie, who had been personally hired by Jisoo, managed by golden manager Jieun, and even recognized by Lisa Manoban at the anniversary celebration had "The World" as a solid foundation, and again, she rose to fame with "Dream Chaser". Was she not at the height of her limelight!?
Now that Yimo was gone, Glory World Entertainment would definitely elevate her as the number one actress, and all of the opportunities would go to her first.
To say that Glory World Entertainment was now under her rule was not quite an exaggeration.
It was a good thing that Jennie's current status was still far from entering the international market. Then again, she could not let her continue expanding like this.
...
After Qiutong brought Jennie around to meet the prominent people in the circle, she stopped when she was satisfied and called Tianxin over. They chatted as they ate.
However, Tianxin looked absent-minded throughout the conversation, glancing at her phone every now and then.
"Tianxin, are you dating now?" Qiutong teased.
Tianxin immediately blushed. "No, Aunty, don't tease me!"
Jennie blinked. "Mmm, you keep looking at your phone. Could you be waiting for that man you have liked stubbornly for many years?"
Tianxin was stunned and her cheeks turned even more scarlet. It looked like Jennie had guessed correctly.
Jennie seemed like she had expected this. She snorted, "I knew it was him!"
Her cousin was not the usual kind of stubborn. She would not look at others no matter how well they treated her. Her loyalty lay with only one man, and his every action preoccupied her mind. Although he had only given her a leaf, that single leaf had been treasured by her for many years.
Jennie indicated her admiration for this unwavering loyalty. Every time she looked at her, she saw her old self...
