“This year’s Film Festival will officially commence in a few days. Behind me is the venue for this year’s festival, The Eastern Cathedral. As like previous years, it will be a colorful and spectacular event. And this year, the highly talked about Emma will be presenting her newest film, ‘The Ant Queen’, at the festival…”
After finishing her shower, Emma lay on the bed and waited for Eric. As soon as she spotted her man return to the room with a towel around his body, she turned off the television and said, “Before attending the Film Festival, there’s somewhere I would like to go.”
Eric threw back the blankets, climbed into bed and pulled Emma into his arms, “Let’s go then.”
After hearing this, Emma placed her head on Eric’s firm ch*st and closed her eyes.
She knew Eric would understand her!
Since completing ‘The Ant Queen’, she had yet to share the good news with Qiao Sen. So, before the festival, she wanted to visit the cemetery.
Hence, the next morning, Emma and Lisa arrived at the cemetery with a bunch of fresh flowers and a copy of ‘The Ant Queen’.
Emma had always wanted Qiao Sen to rest in peace…
“Qiao Sen…I’m back. The film has been completed, you see?”
“I’ve done what I promised I’d do. I’m sure you’ll be happy to hear this in heaven because I know how much you wanted to see this film appear on the big screen.”
“I’ve fulfilled your wish, but I’ll hold onto your dream and continue moving forward!”
Lisa stood behind Emma and watched as Emma conversed with Qiao Sen. She felt quite emotional because she knew that Qiao Sen’s death left a scar in Emma’s heart that would cause her to forever feel guilty towards him.
“Let’s go, otherwise you’ll be late,” Lisa reminded.
Emma stared at Qiao Sen’s tombstone for a good few seconds before she turned and said to Lisa, “Let’s go. I’ll get changed in the van!”
“Zephaniah is already on the way. We’ll meet up in a moment.”
Originally, as the male lead, Eric was expected to attend as well. But, considering his identity and the fact that acting wasn’t his main profession, he continued with his meetings in Kaleidoscope.
It didn’t take long before Emma returned to her van. Onboard, she successfully changed and even applied her own makeup.
“Looking at you like this, you could easily be mistaken for an extra. You don’t seem to care about your identity at all. Look at other artists, they all have two makeup artists on call at all times. To be exact, these makeup artists put their entire teams into action just to make their stars shine!”
In comparison, Emma was becoming more and more simple in this aspect.
“But, then again, with your current status, even if you were to wear a potato sack as a dress, you would still dazzle everyone!”
Emma gave a gentle laugh as she reminded Lisa to protect her stomach in crowded areas. She was, after all, pregnant, so nothing was more important than her own body.
Lisa nodded her head cheerfully. After what happened with the Lu Family, she had learned to cherish the people around her a lot more. Especially when she thought of Father Lu and Mother Lu’s divorce, it made her more determined to live her life happily.
Soon, Emma and Lisa arrived at the spot where they were to meet Zephaniah and Zephaniah arrived with the cheeky little Coco Li who he had picked up along the way.
Children sure grew up fast. It had only been a few months since they last met and the little girl had already grown a little taller.
But, as soon as Zephaniah saw Emma, he pointed her up and down and asked, “Are you turning up looking this simple?”
Emma wore a simple silver dress and her hair hung gently to her back in loose waves. Her makeup wasn’t anything extravagant and she had no jewelry to go with her outfit; not even a simple pair of earrings. All she had was her wedding ring.
“I went to visit Qiao Sen, it wasn’t right to look too fancy.”
“Fine,” Zephaniah nodded, his handsome face showing a sense of respect.
Emma was a loyal person; this was something that Zephaniah always admired.
She may have looked simple, but her presence was on a whole other level…
However, the media were all anticipating what this ex-model would turn up wearing. After all, this would be the first time she’d be promoting her new film and it was also her official comeback. She was bound to find a special way to dazzle everyone, right?
Which artist didn’t try to stand out?
“Quick! Look! Emma’s here…Emma…Quick…”
“She’s finally here…” the media surrounding the place began to frantically snap at their cameras.
But, as Emma stepped onto the red carpet, everyone was shocked by her simple appearance.
Emma had obviously kept a low enough profile, yet the media expected her to head in the opposite direction this year. Instead, she made a minimalist approach. She looked plain and pure; a look that brought out the colors in her eyes and made her even more beautiful than if she had dressed in a fancy outfit.
Meanwhile, the other female celebrities walked past in regret. Why did they get so dressed up to fight for attention when they could have just displayed their natural self?
Emma’s skin was in a good condition.
Her body was clean and flawless, and her eyes were beautiful like diamonds…
Netizens that saw the live broadcast of the red carpet burst into laughter.
“The female celebrities this year were all trying to outshine each other with their outfits, like a bunch of parading chickens! But, Emma’s minimalistic appearance completely destroyed them. What a surprise!”
“You’re wrong! This year’s red carpet was like a jewelry contest where no one could beat the simple wedding ring on Emma’s fi**ger!”
“The teams working with the celebrities failed badly this year. What a hilarious joke!”
“Am I seeing things? Which company’s artist is this? How is she so brave as to wear the same dress as Emma?”
“She’s clashing with Emma?!”
“If no one compares them, then no one would get hurt. Emma’s entire presence attracts attention, she’s clean and pure like a goddess from heaven! But, it’s still awkward to clash outfits at an event like this. It’s best if the two women don’t run into each other!”
Unfortunately…
“That big sister is wearing the same dress as Auntie Emma,” Coco Li said as she pointed to a young artist in the distance.
Now that Coco Li pointed it out, Lisa focused her gaze and furrowed her brows, “Emma, why don’t we swap clothes?”
“Swap?” Emma laughed. “Our measurements aren’t the same. If we swap then it would be even more awkward. Besides, she looks quite good in the dress too…”
As he watched the scene unfold, Zephaniah said to Emma, “You are an award-winning actress, you should be wary of your identity.”
Emma looked down at her dress. Originally, she wanted to make a few changes, but she had gotten too close to the other woman and people nearby began to notice that they were wearing the same dress.
What was Emma’s identity? How could she be clashing with a nobody…
Who chose her outfit? Were the stylists at Kaleidoscope useless?
“I guess, even an award-winning actress has her awkward moments!”
“Who told her to act all minimalist. She’s in trouble now.”
“It’s always best to pick something unique. After all, limited is precious. I have plenty of dresses like the ones on their bodies. Emma didn’t even consider her identity!”
Every year, at the film festival, the outfits of the female celebrities had always been a highlight. Yet, Emma chose to act differently. She was praised for her minimalist approach at first, but in the end, look what happened.
What was she going to do now?
Meanwhile, the little artist that clashed with Emma also noticed the awkward situation and fell into a panic. After all, the person she was clashing with was Emma! So, she glanced left and right at the people beside her and at the director that had brought her along.
Emma wouldn’t misunderstand and think that she was trying to leech off her fame, right?
With this thought, the little artist decided to step forward and explain herself or offer to change.
But, surprisingly, Emma asked Lisa to take off her black suit jacket and told her to cover her with it. She then waved the little artist to her side.
“Emma…I didn’t do it on purpose…”
The young woman mustn’t have expected that Emma would look at her and smile, “Don’t take it to heart. I’m simply here as a producer today. So, the spotlight should be left for those that belong on the stage.”
The little artist never thought she’d hear these words from Emma; she was completely shocked. Moreover, she didn’t think that a two-time award-winning actress would put on a jacket to give her the spotlight.
Afterwards, Emma walked past her after perfectly using her identity as a producer to dissolve the awkwardness.
Meanwhile, the director that came with the little artist couldn’t help but sigh, “Watch and learn. That’s what you call a true superstar!”
Soon thereafter, news of the way that Emma resolved the awkward situation began spreading. On one end, other artists were praising her for her high EQ, and on the other, she set an example for future clothes-clashing incidences.
A little later, someone revealed a photo of Emma visiting Qiao Sen’s grave in the morning.
After seeing this photo everyone finally understood why Emma had appeared at the Film Festival in such a plain outfit. It was because she had mourned an old friend before going there.
When netizens realized this, they couldn’t help but sigh, “I don’t know why Emma feels more dignified ever since she returned with her film.”
“Back when she retreated from the industry, she promised that she would hold onto Qiao Sen’s dream and keep moving forward. Now that ‘The Ant Queen’ is about to start screening, she must have visited Qiao Sen to tell him about this news.”
“It’s not hard for a woman to just be a pretty face, but it’s hard to be interesting and smart.”
“I don’t think Emma cares about what’s on the outside.”
Indeed, she didn’t care. That’s why she was willing to cover herself for the sake of a little artist and hide her shining brilliance…
