Chapter 144: The Incident a year ago (2)
"Hey, let's go, or else we will be late," said a teenage girl, to another one, with whom she had locked her hands.
"Yes, Yes. Do you have the tickets?" asked the other girl.
The girl grinned as she showed her friend the tickets in her hands, she said, "Let's go!" as she pulled the girl into the crowd accumulated outside a big movie hall like the place.
Outside its gates were bodyguards and security officials that kept a check on every person passing by and exiting the big hall.
A separate path was made for celebrities and other people who were in either showbiz or were business tycoons, belonging to rich families.
As those people keep on entering, the crowd burst into shouts and screams. As expected the fans were starstruck to see their idols and other celebrities.
Security had a hard time keeping the excited crowd in control.
In between all this, a car stopped at the entrance that made the crowd silent as if they did not even know how to speak.
The car was lavish and luxurious both from the outside and the inside, It looked like the car looked down upon all the others that came it's way, compelling them to make way for it.
It's look depicted its owner's wealth and status.
The bodyguard that was assigned to welcome the guests, was dumbfounded as well.
If not for someone poking him from behind, that was probably his co-worker, he would have stood there like a statue, without opening the car door.
Coming to his senses, he opened the car door and after a minute or two a person came out.
"Feng Ji!" someone from the crowd shouted that made the others in the crowd shout it as well.
And after a moment, shouts and screams can be heard. Only one name was 'Feng Ji.'
A young man of at least twenty-five years of age or so was seen. With a tall and handsome figure, the man could be considered as one of the finest men in the world. His blue eyes paired correctly with his dark blue and black dyed hair. Into casual wear, but it did not hinder the man's beauty.
"Feng Ji!"
"Feng Ji, here!"
"Feng Ji, I love you!"
"Feng Ji, marry me!"
"Feng Ji!"
"Xiao Ji!"
Feng Ji gave his coat a little hitch and then with a bright smile on his face, he bowed a little before continuing inside the Venue.
At times, he would wave his both hands, giving a bright smile, that was enough to make the fangirls blush and squeal in delight.
The screams started to fade but did not vanish, as he entered the venue, disappearing from their sight.
The venue was not so complex, it was like the small version of the stadium.
With the ramp stage in the center, the lights were pointed towards its direction, making it the center of attention and attraction.
At the sides of the stage were seats, allotted to the celebrities and the important guests, invited.
For the audiences, the seat was arranged in a stadium like a manner.
For an hour, people kept coming, and taking their allotted seats.
Finally, when everyone was settled, the doors were closed, the lights were switched off without any prior notice.
After a moment of dilemma, the people started talking loudly creating a series of whispers and mumbles in the hall.
"Good evening, all the gentlemen and beauties in here," a voice came startling everyone present.
As soon as the voice came, the spotlight shone on the source of the voice, and in no more than a minute, there were shouts and screams again.
"Feng Ji!"
Feng Ji again gave a bright smile and started, "Today we are here for the new release of the famous designer, Miss W. Are you all excited?"
"Yesssssssssssss~!"
A loud Yes was heard, which added to the spirits of the models that were standing backstage, ready for the show.
Seeing the response, Feng Ji laughed and continued, "So am I! Let's give a round of applause for all the models and Miss W, and let's get started!"
After his part was over, Feng Ji went away to his seat, to enjoy the show.
The main show started with a round of applause, and then one by one the models kept on coming, wearing unique and beautiful designs, both jewelry and clothes.
The presenter kept on giving the introduction of each design.
Whereas for the spectators, it was as if their eyes were being fed silver and gold. As the designs passed by, more and more awestruck the people became.
No one knew when the last model came and went away, the looked speechless.
"Now its time for Miss W to come. Ladies and Gentlemen, please give a round of applause to Miss W," said the presenter said, bringing all the people in the hall back to reality.
A round of applause was heard, that showed the excitement of the people.
In midst of the applause, all the models came one by one on the stage, standing by the sequence they came.
"Presenting before you all, the designer of the famous neckpieces like, 'The Pink Spark', 'The Royal Balance' and the famous clothing collections like 'The Yin' and all this under her own brand 'WM', Miss W."
As the last words finished, the group of the models, divided into two lanes, making way for Miss W.
The hall became silent, in that moment, a young woman stepped in.
Wearing a designer jumpsuit, with a sweetheart neckline and a cape jacket hung on her shoulders, and ankle strap heels, the woman walked through the place that was created by the models.
Coming forward, she stood proudly.
In no less than a minute, the whole of the hall broke into loud and thunderous applause.
"Hello to all the people present here. I am Wen Mei, or Miss W, the creator of the clothing brand WM," Wen Mei said as she gave a light blow.
She was going to continue but was interrupted by applause.
"I thank all of you and my other fans who supported my work and gave it adoration. It was all because of you that I am standing here," she said, followed by applause.
"Miss Wen Mei, is the outfit you are wearing, your creation?" asked the presenter.
With a giggle, Wen Mei said, "As there are people who like my designs, I am a person who loves the Ivy collection by my idol, Miss Iris."
"Wow! This is a piece of great information. I bet Miss Iris would be delighted to have you as her fan, Miss Wen," the presenter said, with a laugh, followed by the laughs of the other people present.
"So is your idol Miss Iris, your inspiration for your masterpiece, 'The Yin' ?" asked the presenter.
Listening to this, Wen Mei gave a slight smile, and said, "That would be a no."
Hearing this, the presenter raised an eyebrow, it spooks an interest in him, as well the others were also curious.
"So, would you mind telling us the source of your inspiration?" he asked.
"My best friend. She was the inspiration for the Yin," answered Wen Mei.
"Oh! So can we meet your best friend, who gave us you, who is a talented designer?" he asked.
"You can, but for this, I am afraid, you would have to go to heaven," said Wen Mei with a giggle.
The presenter and the other people were confused at her words.
"I mean, she is not in this world anymore," as Wen Mei said this, her eyes became a little teary.
"Oh," a loud 'Oh' was heard.
"We are sorry for your loss, Miss Wen," the presenter said with a sorrowful expression.
"Ah! Looks like I ruined the mood, but no need to worry," said Wen Mei as she noticed the silence that had spread across the hall.
Getting the signal from the director of the show to restart, the presenter said, "We hope you keep getting inspiration so that you can bless our eyes with these kinds of amazing works."
"Sure," said Wen Mei, followed by round applause.
.....
The event ended successfully, after Wen Mei's fan signing and greeting. As she went to the backstage, she came across Feng Ji, who was standing with a bouquet in his hand.
Taking the bouquet, Wen Mei said, "Thank you."
"Congratulations," he said.
Wen Mei nodded, after which they both started to walk.
"Never knew your inspiration was my own sister," Feng Ji commented.
With a sluggish smile, Wen Mei said, "It has been a year since her departure, but she is always there in my mind, as an inspiration for me."
....
A year ago,
Wen Mei came out of the airport with her luggage, followed by the guards that Wen Peng assigned her for her. She spotted that a car was already for already there.
She was going to open the car door when a phone call came. Seeing the ID, she sighed and said,
"What is it, mom? I have just landed. Atleast-"
"Are you crying?" said Wen Mei as she heard some sobbing from the background.
"W-What happened?" asked Wen Mei.
"That...."
"Huh?" as soon as Madam Wen spoke the last word, Wen Mei was dumbfounded.
