As night had just fallen, the deep night sky ignited people's passion. Outside Yancheng Hotel, luxury cars gathered like clouds, and the crowd was bustling. The banquet hall on the third floor had been newly decorated, ready to host the press conference for the start-up ceremony of the TV drama "Rock Youth." Facing the square, a huge LED screen played the moment from last night's Chinese Golden Melody Awards, where Yu Zexiao, the superstar who had taken Asia by storm, won the award for Most Popular Male Singer.
In the footage, Yu Zexiao stood tall and handsome, exuding a natural nobleness and elegance, his eyes as black as the night sky twinkled with light, seemingly captivating souls with just a glance, capable of mesmerizing thousands of young girls. His slender arm held up the golden trophy, dazzling under the spotlight. Although he had received a great honor, his expression was not one of excitement but appeared as though it was to be expected.
In everyone's eyes, Yu Zexiao was strikingly beautiful, tall in stature, with a voice like a heavenly melody, and experiences from studying abroad. The most crucial point was that he wasn't one of those stars who came from poverty, desperately climbing their way up; he was a true nobleman. His grandfather was a provincial official, his father Yu Jingxi a well-known group president, and his mother Shen Lanxiao from the distinguished Scholar Family. Such a status was almost a natural advantage, as if—he was the Prince Charming from countless young girls' dreams!
Yet he always kept a low profile and remained mysterious. Aside from releasing albums, he rarely participated in any entertainment shows and seldom took part in TV dramas and movies. This only added to people's interest in him!
However, such an outstanding person seldom had any scandals, nor was there any close female companion. Five years ago, when he had just returned to the country to develop his career, he was seduced by Miss Asia, who had been voted by "homebodies" as the "sexiest goddess" and had stripped off her clothes in the hotel where he was staying to tempt him. Unexpectedly, Yu Zexiao showed no mercy and had her thrown out of the hotel stark naked!
After that incident, the entertainment industry was abuzz. Some speculated that he might have some unspeakable ailment. If it weren't for the fact that he also didn't have any close male friends, people might have thought he was gay!
Jian Anning stood in the monitoring room on the third floor, looking out through the floor-to-ceiling window. Amidst the night, countless fans holding "Zexiao" glow sticks shouted loudly.
A month ago, she had just come to Starlight Entertainment to apply for a job, and unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the company, she became the assistant to Yu Zexiao, the superstar who had conquered Asia.
Yu Zexiao's agent was Yin Maohui, the big boss of Starlight Entertainment, and he had two assistants, one for work and one for his personal life. Jian Anning was the personal life assistant, responsible for serving tea, managing day-to-day living—in other words, a full-time nanny.
When she came in, it coincided with the chart climbing of Yu Zexiao's new album, and things were very busy. Since she was new and Yu Zexiao didn't like her getting too involved in his private life, despite her having a distinguished family background which helped her adeptly handle many lifestyle details, their communication was not frequent, yet their relationship was relatively harmonious.
Who would have known last night...
Jian Anning rubbed her temples. After parting ways that morning, as Yu Zexiao's personal assistant, she should have been attending to him. But she really didn't know how to act as if nothing had happened and "get along peacefully" with a man she had just slept with, so she ran here to work behind the scenes.
The banquet was set to start in about five minutes.
At that moment, suddenly, a commotion erupted outside!
