Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny - Chapter 269
Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Disciple of Darkness (Third Update)
Xue An also heard Mr. Dragon’s speech from afar and couldn’t help but feel emotional!
Just then,
a lavish, limited-edition Rolls-Royce slowly drove into the venue.
The eyes of many were drawn to this pricey vehicle.
Many people were gossiping, curious to know which star had arrived in it.
At that moment, the car door opened, and Williams got out first.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, he quickly walked to the other side, opened the car door, and extended his hand, ready to assist.
A slender and delicate hand reached out and gently rested on Williams’s hand.
Then, a stunningly beautiful woman slowly stepped out of the car.
Her beauty made many hold their breath.
The media reporters squatting outside the venue were at first startled, then went into a frenzy.
Fan Mengxue!
She had arrived!
And she came in a man’s luxury car.
Who was this man?
What was their relationship?
These questions swirled in the minds of the reporters, exciting them all.
Williams was enjoying the moment.
A beauty at his side, the center of attention.
Many reporters crowded around, shouting their questions.
“Miss Fan, what do you think of this year’s Oscars?”
“Miss Fan, if you don’t win an award this time, what will you do?”
But more questions were directed at Williams.
“Miss Fan, is this gentleman your boyfriend?”
The crowd fell silent.
Many were looking at Fan Mengxue, wanting to know her answer.
Fan Mengxue smiled slightly and shook her head, “No!”
“Then why did you come in his car? Are you two dating?” the reporter persisted.
Williams frowned, feeling annoyed.
In his eyes, the reporter was simply being too tactless.
Just as he was about to rebuke them, he suddenly felt the beauty beside him stepping away quickly.
He was momentarily stunned before quickly following after her.
The reporters were also caught off guard. What was Miss Fan planning to do?
But their journalistic instincts prompted them to follow as well.
By then, Fan Mengxue had already walked briskly to the crowd near the red carpet.
The crowd stirred.
Many looked excited, thinking Fan Mengxue was approaching them.
However, Fan Mengxue stopped, brushed her hair from her ear, and smiled slightly.
“An, you’ve come!”
The reporters hurriedly aimed their cameras at the crowd, eager to see who was this person that made Fan Mengxue so flustered.
When they took a closer look, they realized that the man Fan Mengxue had affectionately called out to was actually accompanied by his wife and children.
The entire scene grew somewhat astounded for a moment.
Williams’s face was even more overcast, his eyes filled with fury!
Yet faced with so many onlookers, Xue An just nodded slightly and said with a smile, “I’ve come, and it’s specially to congratulate you!”
Fan Mengxue laughed, her smile brimming with happiness.
Then she turned to An Yan and said, “Sister An, I’ve been so busy these last few days that I forgot to pick you up, I’m really sorry!”
An Yan smiled, “It’s fine!”
Fan Mengxue then looked at the two little girls.
“Xiang Xiang, Nian Nian, have you thought about Auntie Fan?”
A look of confusion flickered across the faces of Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, and then they nodded somewhat awkwardly, but remained silent.
Afterward, Fan Mengxue glanced around and said, “An, what are you doing here?”
“Because I can’t get into the main venue,” replied An Yan indifferently.
Fan Mengxue frowned, “Don’t worry about them. I’ll notify them in a bit. You take Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian inside! I’ll go ahead, and we’ll attend the banquet together tonight!”
After speaking, Fan Mengxue nodded at An Yan and turned to leave.
Seeing her departure, Williams took a deep look at An Yan before quickly following her.
After she had gone, Shen Kang and Shen Nan said with faces full of envy, “Mr. Xue, Miss Fan really is an exceptional beauty, and she handles social interactions without a hint of arrogance. She’s truly admirable!”
An Yan smiled and remained noncommittal.
The reporters had intended to approach An Yan for an interview, but as they made a move, An Yan, along with his family, had already entered the main venue.
With no other choice, they stamped their feet in frustration, preparing to stop An Yan after the event.
Inside the main venue, it was indeed a dazzling gathering of stars!
Many faces that one would only see on the big screen were now assembled all in one place.
An Yan, with An Yan and the others, found a corner to sit down in.
Among the many Western faces, the appearance of An Yan and his party naturally drew a lot of attention.
In these gazes, there was curiosity and scrutiny, but most of all, there was arrogance.
No matter what achievements the Chinese made, these M Country folks always seemed to be filled with unfounded arrogance and prejudice.
However, An Yan paid no mind to these attitudes, his gaze fixed on the distant figure of Fan Mengxue, twinkling with contemplation, wondering what he was thinking.
At that moment, a warm male voice in Mandarin Chinese asked,
“May I sit next to you?”
An Yan turned his head to see, recognizing the iconic large nose.
After a brief moment of surprise, he nodded and smiled.
“Please, feel free.”
After Mr. Dragon sat down, he looked at An Yan curiously and asked, “If I may be so bold, you don’t seem to be an actor, are you?”
An Yan smiled slightly, “Of course not!”
At this moment, An Yan was very excited, “Mr. Dragon, could I have your autograph?”
Mr. Dragon laughed heartily, “Of course, you can!”
As he said that, he wrote fluidly, giving An Yan an autograph, and then he noticed Xue Xiang and Xue Nian by the side and couldn’t help but ask enviously,
“Sir, are these your daughters?”
An Yan nodded.
Mr. Dragon seemed a little reflective, “Sometimes I wonder, why live so tiredly? It would be better to spend quality time with the family. Pleased to meet you, you have an enviable family!”
With that, Mr. Dragon extended his hand towards An Yan.
An Yan smiled, shook his hand, and then blandly asked, “Why isn’t Mr. Dragon sitting at the front?”
Mr. Dragon shook his head with a wry smile, “You might not believe it, but actually, I really dislike being under the camera; it’s too tiring! And…”
Mr. Dragon looked at the radiant Fan Mengxue in the distance and softly laughed, “Tonight, this event belongs to her! I wouldn’t want to go up there and foolishly barge in on the festivities!”
An Yan gave a casual smile, noncommittal.
Just as the Oscars awards ceremony was about to officially start,
Griffin walked out of the house clutching a large, sturdy dog.
The yard was filled with men in black tuxedos, their expressions cold.
Upon seeing Griffin, all the men nodded slightly.
These were Griffin’s most elite underlings, and the result of many years of his hard work.
Disciples of Darkness.
It was just that when they had fled from City of Sin in a panic, they had lost more than half of their force.
Otherwise, the scene today would have been even more grand.
Griffin carefully held the dog as he got into the car, then waved his hand.
“Depart!”
A line of black vintage cars slowly started to move out of the villa, heading straight for the Oscars venue.
At that moment, Griffin leaned forward and spoke in a respectful tone, “My lord, we will arrive soon!”
