Chapter 78: Touching Porcelain (1)
Ye Sui ran to the scene of the car accident, which was already packed with people . She failed to squeeze in, however . Helpless, she could only stand outside the crowd and tiptoe to look inside .
In the bitter, cold night, the dim light made it darker and darker . Ye Sui could vaguely discern that the color of the crashed car was black, but the model could not be seen clearly .
As the autumn wind blew on her face, Ye Sui’s tears tumbled from her eyes . Warm tears rolled across her cheeks, making the surrounding chill even more vivid .
Chen Shu’s car was also black . At this moment, Ye Sui could not help but panic . Her mind was overwhelmed by chaotic ideas .
Did the car belong to Chen Shu? What if something happened to him? She hadn’t lived a better life with him; how could he go first?
Ye Sui stood in the crowd and cried silently . Her shoulders trembled, her face wet with tears .
At that time, Chen Shu was driving, and the accident had taken place not far in front of him . The sound of the collision was so loud, the noise penetrated through inside the car .
Coincidentally, a low battery notification popped up, and Chen Shu’s cell phone just ran out of power . After shutting down, Ye Sui’s voice disappeared at the other end of the phone .
Chen Shu could not reach Ye Sui . He found a place to stop and immediately parked the car on the roadside . Since the cell phone turned off so abruptly, the last sound that Ye Sui heard from him was the loud crash .
Chen Shu had reached near Ye Sui’s worksite . She would certainly come to the scene of the car accident to check .
He suspected that Ye Sui might be there .
Chen Shu parked the car quickly and hurried to the scene . Among the jam-packed crowd, strange figures, one after another, whispered to each other .
Chen Shu looked around, and his eyes stopped on a familiar figure .
He had seen the coat Ye Sui was wearing at home, so he immediately recognized her . The two of them were separated by a certain distance . Chen Shu walked in little by little, closing the gap .
Soon, he noticed that she seemed to be crying .
Public places were too conspicuous, though . Chen Shu did not call Ye Sui by her name . His words rolled around his lips, and he slowly spat out one word, “Wife . ”
It was clear that there was so much noise around since all the onlookers were there, but Chen Shu’s voice passed through the air and clearly reached Ye Sui’s ear .
Although Chen Shu didn’t call her name, the voice was too familiar . Ye Sui’s body froze in an instant . She couldn’t believe her ears at all .
The place was too chaotic . Chen Shu pushed the crowd aside and walked behind Ye Sui . He held out his hand and gently pressed it on her shoulder, as if to appease her emotions .
Ye Sui gradually turned around and moved her head, meeting Chen Shu’s familiar and fair eyes .
When Ye Sui turned around, her tears were still falling like a waterfall . Her eyes were red, as if she had spent the whole night crying . Her lips were sealed tight, maybe too agitated to say anything .
Chen Shu looked at Ye Sui and stared into her eyes . “Don’t worry, I’m not hurt . ”
Ye Sui’s crying stopped slowly . She gasped, but her throat was so dry that she couldn’t utter a word .
Chen Shu pulled Ye Sui’s hat down, took off his scarf, and wrapped it around her, hiding her face from other people .
His voice was gentle, as if scared of disturbing the moonlight . “Shall we go home?”
Ye Sui didn’t speak, only nodding vigorously . She would follow Chen Shu home and would not let him get hurt in the future .
A horde of ghosts stood outside the crowd, spectating the scene .
The man who was involved in the car accident had now become a ghost, and his soul was standing not far away, looking at the living world in a daze .
If he hadn’t been drunk, if he had not been driving under the influence, if he had been a bit more careful… maybe there would be no car accident .
Chen Shu reached out his hand and took Ye Sui’s . Sensing it was extremely cold, his brows slightly furrowed, pulling a little tighter .

Sensing it was extremely cold, his brows slightly furrowed, pulling a little tighter .
Chen Shu’s hand was warm like a small fire . The temperature reached to her palm and spread to every inch of her skin .
The night was getting dark, and everywhere Ye Sui looked, all the ghosts disappeared, and the world became quiet . Even the words of others were all covered by that instantaneous touch .
Chen Shu took Ye Sui’s hand and walked out . She just bowed her head and hid her face under her hat and scarf . She had finally realized what would happen if she was recognized .
Fortunately, everyone around them was talking about the accident . No one paid them any attention, and no one noticed that there was a celebrity here .

They just held hands and walked out of the throng of people . Chen Shu’s car was parked at the corner of the road . They naturally let go of their hands, and there was nothing strange on their faces .
The two sat in the car and fastened their seat belts . Ye Sui’s heart was still taut, feeling that everything just now was a horrible nightmare .
Ye Sui hurriedly said, “You must be careful when driving . ”
“Okay,” Chen Shu spoke without hesitation and quickly agreed . He knew that what had happened was still fresh on her mind .
The car started and drove into the night .
Sitting inside, Ye Sui looked sideways and saw Chen Shu’s well-defined face . Since he had promised her, he was now driving carefully and did not look sideways to talk .
Chen Shu looked intently at the road ahead . The streetlamp glowed faintly, illuminating the way to their home and his face .
The car window was slightly opened . No one talked in the car, only the sound of the air flowing inside could be heard .
At this time, Ye Sui noticed that because it was too quiet here, her heartbeat became more and more obvious, rampant, frenzied, and restless .
It turned out that from the time she thought Chen Shu had been in a car accident to seeing him safe and leaving the scene with him, Ye Sui’s heart was still beating violently until now .
Wasn’t this because she was too worried that Chen Shu had an accident?
Her anxiousness caused her every nerve to tense up . She ran so fast, she almost sprained her foot . As it turned out, the position of Chen Shu in her heart was more important than she had imagined .
Ye Sui carefully looked at Chen Shu’s face . After getting along for so long, she clearly got used to it . Yet every time she saw it, she thought he looked too good .
Like when eating desserts, dopamine would spread through the blood, creating a feeling of happiness . Like when exercising, the blood circulation would speed up, and the heart would start pounding violently .
Ye Sui thought all the way home . She recalled his every small detail, causing her to blush and her heart to beat faster .
It was only now that Ye Sui had discovered something .
She seemed to like Chen Shu .
After Ye Sui helped Chen Xin’s wife convey the message, Chen Xin was able to keep his company and see his brother’s true face .
Chen Xin had always been looking for opportunities to repay Ye Sui . Since she was a person in the entertainment industry, resources must be vital to her . As the largest advertising company in China, Huaxia could serve as a bridge for Ye Sui .

But Chen Xin worried that Ye Sui would not accept it and did not take the initiative to contact Ye Sui . Thinking about it, Chen Xin found a compromise .
Dior and Huaxia Advertising had always maintained close cooperation . Chen Xin heard that their last celebrity’s contract had expired, and Dior was looking for a new star .
A big brand like Dior needed a popular female celebrity who met the brand’s temperament to promote it .
Chen Xin had a good relationship with the CEO of Dior China, so he just mentioned Ye Sui .
Dior’s choice was naturally demanding . Both Pei Ning and Chang Ying already had other big-name endorsements, so Dior could not approach them .
They were going to choose from a few new female celebrities that had become popular recently, including Ye Sui and Zhuang Jin, who had outstanding temperament .
Although Ye Sui’s appearance was more suitable for Dior, Zhuang Jin had a better reputation . Besides, the brand was also more inclined towards her .

Besides, the brand was also more inclined towards her .
Because of Chen Xin’s proposal, however, Dior decided to take another look at Ye Sui . After all, it was difficult to choose between Zhuang Jin and Ye Sui .
Chen Xin only provided Ye Sui an opportunity for a fair fight . In the end, whom Dior chose depended on their own charisma .
Ye Sui’s studio received word from Dior, who offered to lend Ye Sui their dresses for Weibo’s red carpet .
Dai Zhi immediately understood Dior’s idea . Right now, they must do their best to help Ye Sui become the brand’s new face .
Dior also talked to Zhuang Jin regarding the news . She initially thought it was a done deal, but now she had to compete with Ye Sui halfway through .
Ye Sui and Zhuang Jin had only seen each other in two variety shows .
In “Opening a Snack Shop with Stars”, Gao Yue, who had been an on-screen couple with Zhuang Jin before, turned a blind eye to her on the program, but he showed a good attitude towards Ye Sui .
In the Celebrity Challenge, Zhuang Jin was not only poor in variety shows but was also criticized by the audience for plastic surgery . In contrast, Ye Sui’s rumors of cosmetic surgery were cleared away .
They were all new celebrities that had just gained popularity this year . If Zhuang Jin lost to Ye Sui in Dior’s resource competition again, it could be regarded as a great shame .

On Weibo red carpet night .
The car drove slowly to the venue and stopped in front of the entrance . Ye Sui stepped out in that Dior’s dress .
Ye Sui’s face was as stunning as ever . Even more eye-catching was the light-colored, dazzlingly decorated dress . It was all handmade and meticulously stitched with flowers so delicate, they swayed a little with each step she took .
Her skin was as white as the blossoms of the almond tree, like standing in the blooming flowers all over the mountain .
The elegant and cool temperament of Ye Sui was natural, adding a finishing touch to her bright and vibrant facial features . The reporters swarmed in, and the cameras clicked .
Director Smith also came to the scene, his expression light while looking at Ye Sui .
He had heard that the female star’s previous reputation was not very good . She started out as a look-alike of a famous celebrity . Although she had received good resources recently and would develop well in the future, this did not prove that Ye Sui was suitable for Dior .
Ye Sui looked bright and stunning . Recently, after gradually clearing her embarrassment, her popularity had soared, and the followers increased exponentially . But Zhuang Jin was an up-and-coming celebrity with excellent public recognition .
How to choose between these two remained to be discussed . The most important thing was whose appearance and temperament could complement Dior’s dress the best .
At this time, another car stopped at the entrance of the red carpet .
Zhuang Jin stepped out from the back, her dress shocking everyone—It was the same as Ye Sui’s, decorated with flowers!
Dior’s move was really amazing .
The brand deliberately lent Ye Sui and Zhuang Jin similar dresses and specified that they should wear them on the red carpet, all to catch them off guard .
Zhuang Jin twisted her slender waist, and her skirt reached her ankle . She moved slowly but had not yet seen Ye Sui . By this point, she had already walked onto the red carpet and came to the front of the camera .
The reporters and viewers who didn’t know the truth were stunned for a while, and a thought flashed into their minds .
Did Ye Sui and Zhuang Jin wear similar outfits?
For female celebrities, it was a big taboo to have similar attire, which meant they would be compared by countless people .
However, on closer inspection, there were slight differences . Their elegance varied, but the styles were generally similar . In other words, the two of them appeared at the same event while wearing a dress from Dior’s new collection .
Did they want to have a head-on fight between the two famous new female celebrities?
