"Yes, Mr. Du? Yes, yes. I have everything ready in the bag in my room. Yes, the pink one with Lin Zhi's sticker on it. Of course, yes. Thank you, Mr. Du."

Shen Fe took the drink Arthur Shang offered, "You're probably the only person on the cusp of a storm and still handling your own public relations."

Katrina shrugged, "I'm just a PA, Wu Yige is my boss. I hat when tabloids saying things like 'The affair has also cast a shadow over Wu Yige's professional life. Brands associated with the actor are reportedly reconsidering their partnerships, fearing that the scandal may tarnish their image. The repercussions of this scandal extend beyond the personal lives of those involved, affecting the intricate web of the showbiz relationships and endorsements.' They don't even fact check, they just want to use public opinion to make the brands leave Yige and the endorsement will fall to their artist patrons. Annoying vipers!"

Shen Fe shook her head and looked at her boyfriend, "Some type of world you live in, babe."

Arthur Shang touched her nose lovingly, "My world is yours too, love."

Katrina's eyes twitched, "Yak!"

The lover bird clears their throat and visibly takes a step back.

"By the way I need you guys' help."

"Shoot."

"Wu Yige and I will attend the Busan Film Festival, I need something to rock the red carpet."

Shen Fe put down her drink, "Oh, my sweet Katrina. You're talking to the right person! Come, let's go to the spa!"

"No, Shen Fe. Wait, wait!"

Arthur Shang could only light a candle of grieving for Katrina. His girlfriend was all about making headlines and shutting up haters. This vengeance was personal.

Shen Fe's team from 'The Ones' hadn't head home and the moment their boss told them to doll up Katrina as a goddess, they were more than happy to oblige. They were ready to assist the intimate journey through meticulous preparation that transformed her into the epitome of red carpet perfection.

Busan Film Festival was the rising renowned event for the cineas. From respectable directors, famous artists, to award winning writers and producers were here to promote their works or find the next star for their upcoming project. It was one of the 'it' networking events as the red carpet and premiere was invitation only.

It was Katrina's first appearance and they were determined to dominate the headline.

Katarina was first indulged in a pampering treatment fit for royalty. From a rejuvenating facial to a soothing massage, every detail was attended to with precision, setting the stage for the radiant glow she'll exude later.

Back at the suite Shen Fe specifically rented, the focus shifted to skincare. Surrounded by an array of premium skincare products, Katrina was under Shen Fe's trusted skincare specialist to ensure her flawless complexion. The meticulous process involves masks, serums, and the careful application of products tailored to enhance her natural beauty.

Shen Fe would waste her fashion mogul status if she couldn't dig her treasure trove of designer gowns and statement pieces. With the assistance of her stylist, she sifts through the exquisite collection, carefully selecting the perfect ensemble for the evening.

With the same trustworthy make-up artist, Katrina undergoes a transformative experience. The makeup chair becomes a canvas as expert hands skillfully apply foundation, contour, and eyeshadow. The final touch — a bold lip color that adds a touch of drama to the overall look.

Katrina was soon changed into the previously selected gown. The elegant off shoulder long gown accentuates her silhouette. This was The Ones' masterpiece that promised to captivate the paparazzi.

Everyone agreed that her collarbone was something many people would be envious of. They couldn't help taking a picture of the gorgeous woman in black with the updo.

"Now, the final touch is here."

"Shen Fe, you-"

"Shh.. You're the first Film Festival's attendee The Ones officially endorsed, you must make it to the headline no matter how."

Everyone was holding in their breath as the BVLGARI Serpenti Viper placed on Katrina's neck, adding a touch of sophistication to her ensemble.

With a reassuring nod and a shared moment of excitement, they know the transformation was now complete.

Wu Yige was already in the limousine in the hotel's basement. The ride to the venue was just a short distance.

Unlike his usual clean young man look, Wu Yige was in a three piece white suit with his lightly shaved beard and mustache. His long hair turned into a man bun and the whole person exuded alluring masculinity.

He got my complaints to his company and Katrina, but they were battling baseless accusations against him too. Wu Yige had no choice but to attend the film festival. Thankfully, Arthur Shang connection in South Korea wasa enough for them to hop into the fastest transportation to Busan.

As Katrina steps into the waiting limousine, the world awaits for their arrival at the film festival, and as the door closes, the anticipation builds for a night that will undoubtedly be etched in the annals of red carpet history.

The atmosphere crackles with a blend of suspense and exhilaration. The red carpet, flanked by towering billboards showcasing cinematic excellence, pulses with the vibrant energy that only a major film festival could summon. The flashes of cameras illuminate the night, reflecting the intensity of the global spotlight on this particular moment.

Many reputable names from various renowned projects waving their hands, flashing their best smile, and posing for the fans and media.

As the sun sets over the glittering cityscape, the red carpet at the prestigious film festival transforms into a stage of anticipation and excitement. The global media, fans from overseas, and an eager worldwide audience were gathered, their collective breaths held, awaiting the arrival of a duo whose recent journey through a storm of false rumors has only heightened their intrigue.

Wu Yige - the overseas actor that debuted his movie in this festival as director, was attending tonight!

He wasn't here as the attendee and nominee, but brought his plus - one the alleged mistress and his PA - Katrina Shin.

Finally, the moment arrived.

The sleek limousine pulls up to the red carpet, and the doors swing open. The first to emerge was Wu Yige with his suit and man bun's hair, he didn't wave and immediately stretched his hands instead.

Katrina Shin was resplendent in a gown that elegantly hugged her in the best places. With unwavering eyes and a generous smile, she linked her arm to Wu Yige and they walked to the photo zone.

As the duo makes their way down the red carpet, a collective sigh of relief echoes around the globe. The false rumors have been dispelled, and the world witnesses a powerful and united front against sensationalism and baseless gossip.

They weren't very known here, but the global fans and fans back home erupted in cheers and a palpable wave of support through the live streaming that reverberated through the platforms.

The media was eating up the misleading news the news account released, blaming the news station for almost ruining an innocent child's life.

The fans were celebrating their male god's restored reputation and endlessly envying Katrina for attending such an event with their favorite.

The keen eyes celebrities and fashion savvy people immediately tweeted on how they envied Katrina's swarovski earring and serpenti's necklace.

Some people caught the ring on their left index finger and speculated they might not have a child together, but they were probably currently in love. Which of course, immediately shut down by the fans reminding them that the previous accusation was still fresh and they shouldn't stir up trouble.

Unless the duo confirmed it, it was better for the fans to shut up and celebrate the win.

Inside the venue, the duo takes their seats, their presence commanding attention. The celebration of cinematic excellence's event was momentarily overshadowed by the duo's personal saga.
