Ye Xingguang was in the process of changing her outfit, which was that of the First Lady.
Once she finished dressing, Ye Tingnan reassured herself: “Thankfully, our body sizes are similar; my evening dress fits you perfectly. But are you sure you want to go on stage and belt out those operatic high notes? How sure are you about this?”
Ye Xingguang replied with confidence, “My dear cousin-in-law, I do not engage in activities I am not confident of. I even managed to transform your niece, so trust me this one time. If someone wants to challenge our country, then I simply must bruise her ego. However, I don’t want to sing on stage. I prefer that water-based concert hall. When I sing, start the fountain show, I want that type of atmosphere. The higher I belt, the higher the fountains will spray. Can the water fountains meet my expectations?”
Ye Tingnan thought the idea was brilliant: “I’ll check with the director to see if the musical fountain can keep up with the rhythm of your song.”
“Right, and tell the director not to focus the camera on my face and not let the press point their cameras at my face either. I prefer to keep a low profile and don’t enjoy standing out too much, or else I do not wish to go on stage.”
Ye Tingnan nodded: “Okay, I will pass this message along.”
After mentioning this, Ye Tingnan called the director to communicate Ye Xingguang’s visual effect requirement.
Soon, it was all arranged, Ye Tingnan said: “The director mentioned it’s technically feasible. Head backstage to prepare.”
“Alright, I’m off.”
Having changed into her outfit, Ye Xingguang picked up the hem of her dress and rushed backstage. Chi Juechen however, was convinced she had fled in terror.
But that did not bother him, for his attention was never on her, but on Xia Yanyan.
Now, Chi Juechen was in high spirits and couldn’t help but smirk: “Xia Yanyan, is that all you’ve got?” noveldrama
Xia Yanyan was so irritated she almost stood up: “This Chi Juechen, he has the gall to insult me and yet remains unrepentant!”
Yi Yujian held Xia Yanyan’s hand, calming her: “Cool down. At this point, we can only hope your cousin aces it.”
“Cousin, you still have faith in Ye Xingguang? She merely wants to use Chi Juechen to embarrass me. She can’t do anything herself but still sought to compete with me against Chi Juechen. What’s worse, she ended up fleeing in fear, causing our nation to lose face!”
Yi Yujian frowned: “She doesn’t seem like that type of person…”
“Cousin, you have only just met her, what do you know about her character? She could, out of spite because I almost got engaged to Ye Junqing, come to my house causing a ruckus. By that alone, I could tell she’s impulsive. If she’s so capable, why don’t you ask her to go up on stage and perform a show, and put this arrogant Chi Juechen back into his place!”
Xia Yanyan was furious. White Lotus was definitely doing it on purpose! She’s such a no-brained, manipulative female toying with national honor!
Anyway, it’s better this way lest her cousin starts seeing White Lotus in a good light because she saved her cousin. Now she can finally see the true colors of White Lotus…
However, her mental machinations were thwarted when the host suddenly announced Ye Xingguang’s name.
“Up next, please enjoy the song brought to us by Ye Xingguang, ‘You are my first Sunshine’.”
As the host spoke, the stage lights dimmed, but the fountains in the water-based concert hall ignited with a dazzling light display.
The splendid water-based concert hall and its high platform began to rise. A girl, her fingertips dancing on the piano, slowly came into everyone’s view…
