Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 297: Chapter 296: Mysterious Megastar

Lin Ze Ping remained silent, and Fang Cui gave Third Uncle a cold stare without a word.

Third Uncle kept talking to himself, constantly faulting Su Yang. He was quite oblivious and failed to notice that Lin Ze Ping and Fang Cui’s expressions were growing increasingly grim as he chattered on and on.

The wedding proceeded as planned, and after the ceremony for the bride and groom had concluded, the stage lights suddenly changed, and several performers took the stage.

The appearance of these individuals sent the crowd into a frenzy, for they were none other than the recent champions of the popular national variety show ”Happy Rally,” all of whom were celebrities.

”My God, my God, my God...” Third Uncle was dumbfounded, thinking that even celebrities had been invited—how high-profile must this wedding be?

When these performers had finished, new celebrities took the stage. Each one was renowned, rarely seen by the average person, and the atmosphere at the venue reached a fever pitch.

After more than an hour of performances, the host Zhou Leping came on stage, excitedly announcing, ”Ladies and gentlemen, a mystery guest will appear shortly to give the newlyweds the sincerest of blessings. This mystery guest has just arrived in Nanluo City and will be performing immediately. Please welcome this special guest with your warmest applause!”

The audience immediately began to clap, with Second Aunt whispering, ”What mystery guest is this that it’s so grand? Could there be anyone more impressive than the stars we’ve seen?”

”Indeed, who could it be?” Third Uncle also murmured quietly.

Suddenly, an ethereal voice began to sing, silencing the venue before it erupted into cheers.

”This... this...” Third Uncle’s eyes nearly bulged out: ”This sounds like Ying’er’s song!”

”Ying’er? The Ying’er who’s currently the hottest celebrity in the country?” Second Aunt was also dumbstruck: ”My God, it couldn’t be her, could it? She’s a top-tier star—how could she possibly be here?”

”Who knows—but it really is her song!” Third Uncle’s eyes widened: ”If Ying’er has come, then the scale of this wedding is truly through the roof!”

Second Aunt said nothing but stared intently at the stage.

As the audience roared with approval, a graceful woman in a white dress appeared—it was Ying’er herself.

Holding the microphone, she sang while waving to the crowd, sending the venue’s energy to its peak.

Ying’er alone was an equal match for all the previous stars combined. She was the real superstar, a top domestic celebrity watched by millions!

”My God, it really is Ying’er!” Third Uncle exclaimed in shock.

”Am I dreaming?” Second Aunt asked anxiously: ”My daughter loves her so much, I wonder if we could get her autograph? Oh, if I could get an autograph, my daughter would be thrilled to death!”

”Getting an autograph shouldn’t be too hard...” Third Uncle smiled: ”After all, she was invited by Old Qi; with our relationship with Old Qi, just a word from him should do the trick!”

”That’s fantastic, I’ll go find Old Qi right away!” Second Aunt said excitedly.

After her song finished, Ying’er approached Zhao Tao and Lingling, smiling and saying, ”I wish the two of you a harmonious marriage, growing old together!”

Zhao Tao was flustered with excitement, while Lingling cried tearfully.

Ying’er was the idol of everyone their age!

Previously, they could only see such an idol on TV or in movies—who could have imagined that they would meet her in person, and that she would personally bless their wedding?

Lingling’s body trembled slightly, wanting to go up and hug Ying’er but held back, too daunted to approach.

Ying’er smiled gently and opened her arms towards Lingling.

Lingling’s tears immediately flowed again as she rushed to embrace Ying’er, overwhelmed with happiness.

After a while, Ying’er stepped down and the wedding came to an end.

Everyone dispersed around the table to sit down, and the second aunt immediately stood up, ran to find Old Qi, and asked him to arrange for Ying’er’s autograph.

”Ying’er’s autograph?” Old Qi couldn’t help but feel awkward and whispered, ”But she’s a big star, I... I’m afraid it’s not quite appropriate...”

”What’s not appropriate? You invited her here, spent so much money, what’s wrong with asking for an autograph?” the second aunt whispered back.

”We... we didn’t spend any money...” Old Qi whispered.

”What?” the second aunt gaped, ”You’re telling me she came voluntarily, just to perform and send her blessings? Are you guys really close or something?”

”No, it’s not like that. She seems to be friends with someone here and came to help a friend...” Old Qi said.

”Who is it? Who has that much influence?” the second aunt wondered.

”I don’t know!” Old Qi shrugged: ”That’s what she said when she arrived, I didn’t even have time to ask. When I see this friend, I must toast a few drinks!”

The second aunt was confused. With so many high-profile people at the scene, who exactly had Ying’er come for?

On the other side, the eldest aunt and uncle finally mustered the courage to sit at the same table with Su Ping and Zhao Xuefen.

The dishes had all been served, but Su Yang had not yet appeared. The eldest aunt couldn’t help sneering, ”Xuefen, what’s going on with Su Yang? Didn’t he say he was a good friend? How can he not show up at the wedding personally? What kind of friend is that?”

The eldest uncle also spoke sarcastically, ”Exactly, all the important people are here. They all managed to find the time, can’t he spare a moment?”

Su Ping didn’t even bother to look at them, and Zhao Xuefen just sneered without a word.

At that moment, Zhao Tao and his wife came over, smiling, ”Everyone, please wait a moment. The newlyweds will come to toast soon, thank you all for your help!”

”No hurry, Old Qi!” the uncle sneered, ”Su Yang hasn’t arrived yet. He’s Tao Zi’s childhood friend, are we going to start without waiting for him?”

”Su Yang has been here for a while!” Zhao Tao said, astonished.

”What do you mean he’s been here?” the uncle asked in surprise, ”Why haven’t I seen him?”

”Oh, he’s upstairs attending to guests!” Zhao Tao said.

”There are guests upstairs?” the eldest aunt asked curiously. ”And you’re having Su Yang attend to them? Why don’t... why don’t the two of you go upstairs to greet them?”

”There’s just one table up there, not many.” Zhao Tao said with a smile, ”Besides, those aren’t guests we can entertain!”

”What do you mean?” The eldest aunt was a bit baffled, but at that moment, Zhao Tao and Lingling walked out. The couple had changed their clothes and were ready to come over to toast.

”Here come the newlyweds, get ready for the toast!” the eldest uncle quickly picked up his glass, eagerly waiting.

However, Zhao Tao and Lingling didn’t come down; they just stood there waiting.

The crowd below looked towards them as well, seemingly also in anticipation of something.

It wasn’t long before two people slowly walked out, and the crowd immediately erupted in cheers.

”Su Yang?!” The uncle exclaimed in surprise.

”Ying’er?” The eldest aunt was also stunned.

The two people who had come out were indeed Su Yang and Ying’er.
