Tycoon: I Have an Unlimited Modifier novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493: Chapter 275: An Incredibly Extravagant Coming-of-Age Ceremony

Outside the Banyan Tree Hotel.

Well-informed fans and paparazzi had already gathered early, lying in wait.

"It’s Reba and Sister Mi!"

"Our hearts for Di, never to part! No matter where, our Di is the prettiest by far!"

"Seeking Mi Mi, never to abandon! If Mi is well, it’s a sunny day; if Mi is happy, it’s the perfect ending!"

The two had just stepped out of a Ghost when they were met with the sight of numerous fans chanting their respective slogans.

Judging by the scene, it was hardly less grand than an awards ceremony.

"Miss Reba, Miss Yang Mi, this way, please."

Gu Feng and his team had taken over security for the entire hotel.

They were there to ensure the safety and privacy of the guests attending the birthday banquet, protecting them from the paparazzi and fans.

The fans were thrilled to get pictures of their favorite celebrities.

"Whose daughter is this? To get so many A-list stars for a birthday party, the appearance fees alone must be 50 million, right?"

"Probably not that exaggerated, but it has to be at least 30 million."

"Some people are just born lucky. We can only chase stars from the outside, while this young lady gets to take close-up photos with them and even chat happily."

"I heard the birthday girl is the campus belle of the Shanghai Theatre Academy and even prettier than Reba."

"No way! Our Reba is the most beautiful."

"..."

Following Gu Feng, Yang Mi and Reba walked into the hotel.

They were no strangers to the Banyan Tree.

They had stayed here once or twice when they came to Shanghai to film shows.

But that was a long time ago.

Ever since the Banyan Tree raised its prices, it had become even harder to get a room.

The average occupancy rate was absurdly high.

If you didn’t book a week in advance, you couldn’t get a room.

True, they themselves were worth a fortune.

But faced with such a lavish display—booking out the entire hotel for a birthday.

Even they, as famous actresses, were stunned.

The sides of the corridor leading to the venue were surrounded by a kaleidoscope of fresh flowers and greenery.

The banquet hall was decorated with bouquets everywhere, and even the suspended ceiling was covered in vines.

Exquisite candelabras and tableware sparkled on emerald green dining tables.

"Damn, Sister Mi, are you sure this isn’t a marriage proposal?"

In that moment, Reba turned green with envy.

’If a tall, rich, and handsome man were to propose to me here, I would definitely give it serious consideration.’

No girl could refuse such a romantic scene.

At the very least, she would find it hard to.

"So easily amazed."

Yang Mi was also a bit stunned, but she quickly composed herself.

"It’s great to be rich!"

Reba said wistfully, her eyes fixed on the nine-tiered cake that was so tall it intertwined with the vines on the ceiling.

It looked like it had grown there naturally; she didn’t even know how to describe it.

She knew without a doubt that the cake must have cost at least 100,000.

’So what if we’re big stars?’

’Faced with a scene of this magnitude, all we can do is stare, dumbfounded.’

Compared to someone casually dropping a hundred million on a birthday party for his young girlfriend, their own savings from years of hard work seemed utterly insignificant.

Before arriving, all the invited celebrities had been repeatedly reminded by their companies and managers.

Given Universal Entertainment’s growth momentum, Qi Sheng’s terrifying financial power, and his unknown, mysterious background, while they didn’t have to build a relationship, they absolutely could not afford to offend him.

She saw He Jiong, also dressed smartly in a suit, coordinating the schedule with the hotel staff.

"Teacher He, you’re here too?"

Reba found a chance to go up and greet him.

He Jiong smiled and nodded at Reba.

"Ah, Reba. You look beautiful today. I’m the host for this coming-of-age ceremony."

"Tsk, this whole scene today is just spectacular. You’re the host, and there are so many A-list stars here."

"It’s a good thing no reporters can get in, or they’d crash the Weibo servers for sure."

Reba remarked, but seeing a staff member looking anxious, she tactfully excused herself.

"Well, I’ll let you get back to it. I’m going to say hi to some other people."

"Alright, we’ll talk later when there’s time."

He Jiong didn’t dare to delay and continued to go over the script and schedule.

By 5:00 PM sharp, all the lights and sound systems had been tested and confirmed to be working perfectly.

The celebrities attending the banquet, having meticulously gotten ready in their rooms, also made their way to the first-floor banquet hall.

At 5:20 PM, the coming-of-age banquet for Zong Lin, which had been in preparation all day, officially began.

The choice of time was already a declaration in itself.

No one who makes it as an A-list star is a fool.

They all understood when they saw Zong Lin, dressed in a blue princess gown, slowly walking in from the entrance of the banquet hall.

Even the celebrities, who had seen their fair share of beautiful women, couldn’t help but be stunned by Zong Lin’s beauty.

"Sister Mi, this girl is gorgeous! Her figure is even more killer than yours."

Reba’s eyes were drawn to the dazzlingly fair skin revealed by Zong Lin’s deep V-neckline, sparkling under the bling of diamonds, making her a little dizzy.

"You talk too much!"

Yang Mi shot Reba a glare and then quietly turned her gaze to Zong Lin.

’She had to admit, this girl’s beauty and figure...’

’...were unparalleled in the entertainment industry.’

’To have such assets at such a young age... ’

’If she’s like this now, what will she be like when she reaches my age? Incredible.’

...

"Thank you to all our guests for attending our Linlin’s 18th coming-of-age banquet. Everyone’s 18th birthday is a wonderful milestone, a transition from youth to maturity..."

As the industry’s ace host, He Jiong’s ability to command a room was, of course, beyond question.

Meanwhile, Zong Lin, the star of the coming-of-age ceremony...

...though happy, couldn’t help but look around,
