At the wedding banquet, among the guests who attended the celebration, almost everyone in the entertainment circle had come to show their support. There were even quite some people from the rival company, Glory World Entertainment.
After all, even though they were attached to Glory World, the company's opposing stances could not limit their private relationships.
Two female celebrities from Glory World were discussing softly in a corner.
One of the female artistes in a yellow outfit said worriedly, "Sigh, based on Starlight and Glory World's situation, wouldn't it be to our disadvantage for us to be attending Krystal's wedding? Recently, Krystal and Jennie's relationship seems to be quite tensed too..."
The female artiste in red was quite unbothered. "Otherwise? If you don't come for such an important occassion, would you rather run to that unpresentable small hall upstairs to join some nuisance charity donation ceremony? If you want to go, you can go yourself!"
"Huh? I'm just saying... Speaking of which, Krystal... Jennie... Do these two have some kind of blood relation? Their surnames are both Kim..."
Long ago, when Jennie was still at Starlight, Chairman had already completely shut Jennie out from the Kim family just in case, so Jennie's identity in the entertainment circle was still unknown till now. Then again, the walls had ears, so it was inevitable for that bit of rumor to leak out.
When the artiste in red heard the hypothesis, she said, "There is this rumor. It's probably just a baseless claim. If Jennie were really related to the Kim family, the Kims won't need to directly go against her as they have done previously. For Krystal, they withdrew their investments and even chased her out of Starlight. Didn't you notice that Jennie didn't appear at such an important occassion today?"
"That's true..." The artiste in yellow nodded, feeling much more reassured.
"In fact, the Kims aren't just people who do business as you see on the surface. They have strong support behind them too!"
"Oh? What do you mean?"
"I heard that today even Imperial's famed Zhuang family will come! The founding state general, Zhuang Zongren. That Zhuang family! Now, do you understand? Pfft... I'm not talking to you anymore. I have to get down to business!"
The artiste in red hastily touched up her makeup, then she stood up and sashayed towards one of the old CEOs that she had long been watching.
Krystal's banquet had amassed almost all of Imperial's rich and powerful, and they were all cash cows in most people's eyes. It was such a great opportunity that only a fool would refuse to attend.
Jennie had only been reigning as queen after Yimo had fallen from Glory World Entertainment and there were no other tigers in the mountain. She was not like Yimo who bore the scary title of "Lady Boss of the Manoban Corporation" and had an entire backstage supporting her.
Krystal did not need to give Jennie any face to the extent of giving up such a great opportunity...
...
These kind of occasions were most suitable for all sorts of networking. It was also the best opportunity to make connections and discuss collaborations. Basically, everyone had the same goals as the female artiste in red.
As for the news that the Zhuang family was coming, many of the guests present had heard it too.
Now, many people had gone to find out the truth from Kai's mother.
"Madam Su, we heard that there'll be someone from the Zhuang family coming. Is it true?"
Kai's mother had already received the confident answer from Krystal, thus she was smiling from ear to ear at this moment as she said, "Yes, that's true! Earlier, Krystal just told me that Ms. Zhuang is already on her way!"
"Eh, Krystal? How did she get to know people from the Zhuang family? Madam Su, your daughter-in-law is quite remarkable!"
...
Now that Kai's mother was surrounded by a group of people, not too far away, Xun and his wife looked gloomy, yet they had to force themselves not to express their dismay. Who would have thought that Krystal would suddenly pop up with such a huge supporter!?
