The order of entrance always matters, but who enters first or later in the middle is not as sensitive as opening and closing the show.
Zhou Yun didn't know why Sitian suddenly proposed to follow her onstage; she exchanged glances with Zhou Lan, both seeing a hint of confusion in each other's expressions.
At that moment, the staff responsible for the external coordination came over and said, "It's Miss Yu's turn now."
She didn't hear Sitian's words just now.
The staff in charge of Sitian showed a look of crisis, saying to her, "Miss Yu, this order was arranged early in the morning; it's not very convenient to change it now—"
"What's the inconvenience?" Sitian glanced at Zhou Yun and said, "Just go tell her, and it'll be fine, right?"
The staffer looked troubled.
Several pairs of eyes turned towards Zhou Yun, conveying mixed feelings.
But Zhou Yun herself felt baffled; she had never met Sitian, had never interacted with her, and had no dealings with her. There wasn't any animosity, so why did Sitian suddenly target her and stir up trouble?
Who goes first wasn't crucial if it wasn't for the finale; it was clear she was being troubled for the sake of being upset.
Zhou Yun looked at Zhou Lan.
Zhou Lan whispered, "It's none of our business; let's not involve ourselves. We'll discuss it when the brand representatives arrive."
So far, it's only been Sitian demanding on her own; although the brand's staff felt troubled, they had yet to come over and communicate the issue with her.
After all, it was clear that Sitian was deliberately causing trouble.
Any self-respecting brand wouldn't want to condone such unreasonable behavior.
Due to Sitian's request, the brand had to urgently ask the artists scheduled after them to go first.
They passed by them, casting surprised looks.
Zhou Yun whispered to Zhou Lan, "Standing here being watched, we look like monkeys on display."
Finally, a mid-level executive from the brand came over.
He first negotiated with Sitian, which didn't seem to conclude well, as a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on his otherwise stoic face.
But he didn't say much; he turned and walked towards Zhou Yun.
He earnestly explained and asked, "Miss Zhou, could you adjust the order and go first?"
Zhou Yun nodded understandingly, saying, "Sure."
His face showed a relieved expression, "Thank you for your understanding."
Zhou Yun's smile was beautifully sweet as she said, "I really like your jewelry; it's stunning."
Zhou Yun agreed so readily that it made Sitian's face look even worse.
Her willingness to help so graciously made Sitian seem all the more difficult and troublesome; Sitian was indignant but could not act out.
When Zhou Yun appeared on the red carpet, a wave of noisy cheering erupted.
The information they had received earlier did not mention that Zhou Yun would attend the event.
Remembering that Song Chi would also be present, their cameras flashed even more frenetically.
Zhou Yun displayed her trademark sweet smile. Most of the time, she posed sideways to highlight her profile, a position that ensured the bracelets on her wrist and earrings were directly visible in the camera lens. She continuously changed gestures and poses, concluding her red carpet walk amidst flashes to arrive at the interview zone.
The host's interview revolved entirely around the brand. Zhou Yun spoke her thoughts following the scripted responses and then took her seat in the guest area.
