Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1243: Chapter 1243: Born Singer (Part 23)

The woman together with Hua Huai was asked for a divorce by her husband because she cheated first, leaving her with nothing.

Having lost the lavish lifestyle, the woman hated Hua Huai for flirting with her and hired someone to beat him up.

The company ignored him, and after being beaten, Hua Huai hid at home, afraid to show his face.

The online buzz quickly faded, but this incident cost Hua Huai many opportunities, bringing him back to his initial state, as dim as ever.

Hua Huai hid for two months before he couldn’t take it anymore; he began looking for opportunities himself.

Unfortunately, Hua Huai was out of luck. During his misfortune, news of the Fireworks concert surfaced, slated for three months later.

As always, a ’lavish’ promotion.

Once the news was out, the internet was abuzz.

[No way, is the concert happening already?]

[Do I misunderstand concerts? How long have they debuted, and they’re already having a concert?]

[I feel like it might lose money...]

[I’m going to the brother’s concert, I’m going, is anyone joining a group?]

[Here!]

[The scale doesn’t seem large... but having a concert so soon shows the F·W Group’s boss has money.]

[Isn’t that obvious? Look at their promotions each time; don’t they always throw money around?]

[Curious about the boss behind it.]

[Same curiosity.]

Whenever Hua Huai saw these messages, he felt a wave of resentment.

Clearly, he could do it too; Meng Chuzheng had money, but she pretended she had none... If she had spent that money on him, how could he be in such a state now?

She even said she liked him...

Haha!

Hua Huai dialed Young Master Liang’s number: ”Hey, Young Master Liang, I have something to tell you.”

Whatever was said on the other end, Hua Huai immediately assured: ”Rest assured, Young Master Liang, it’s certainly something you’ll want to know.”

The concert this time wasn’t large, as it was their first concert, making it too big only to have no one come would be embarrassing.

During the concert preparations, Sheng Yan and the others were even busier.

Every night as they went to sleep, their minds were on the concert, filled with excitement and worry.

When Lisa came over, Sheng Yan found a moment to ask her, ”Lisa, will Miss Meng... come to the concert?”

”She should come.” Lisa didn’t give a definite answer.

”Oh...”

”Focus on your preparations.” Lisa thought Sheng Yan was worried about the concert: ”Don’t worry about the rest.”

Sheng Yan lowered his head, his voice sounding muffled: ”Okay, I know.”

-

”Little Yan, when you walk the positions later, watch these two spots, don’t go too fast.”

At the rehearsal scene, several people were familiarizing themselves with the stage.

Sheng Yan nodded to indicate he understood.

”Let’s do it again, come on, come on, thanks everyone, let’s do it again...”

Sheng Yan and Mu Sheng returned backstage, and the stage lights went out.

”Ah, I’m tired.” Mu Sheng whined softly.

”Aren’t you quite happy.” Qu Jiangxiao teased.

Mu Sheng: ”Pain and joy, right, Little Yan.”

Sheng Yan: ”Yes.”

Qu Jiangxiao remembered something: ”By the way, is your wife coming?”

Mu Sheng: ”Yes! It’s my first concert; how can my wife not be present! Has your sister improved recently? Let her come with my wife.”

Listening to Mu Sheng and Qu Jiangxiao talk, Sheng Yan’s smile faded slightly.

This was his first concert too...

”Little Yan, it’s starting.”

Someone beside him reminded him.

Sheng Yan immediately refocused and followed the music out, but as he stood center stage, his gaze suddenly fell below.

Chuzheng had arrived unnoticed, sitting in the middle, chin propped, watching him.

There was no one around her, the lighting below the stage was dim, yet she appeared radiant to Sheng Yan at that moment.

Stunned in place, Sheng Yan missed the following beat.

”Sorry.” Sheng Yan turned to apologize: ”Could we do it once more, please.”

As he walked offstage, he couldn’t help but smile, his eyes sparkling brightly.

Perhaps because Chuzheng was below, the rehearsal went without significant issues, Sheng Yan listening to some minor adjustments on stage, his gaze persistently looking down.

When they could rest, Sheng Yan directly jumped off the stage, heading straight to Chuzheng.

”Tired?”

Chuzheng handed him a water bottle.

Sheng Yan looked at the water in her hand, hesitated a few seconds before accepting it, and hadn’t managed a sip before hearing someone call about receiving items behind him.

Turning back, Sheng Yan saw things being carried over, food, drink, distributed to the staff present.

Sheng Yan: ”...”

Putting down his hand, prepared to twist open the cap, he sat beside her: ”Not tired...”

Turns out it wasn’t just for him.

Chuzheng briefly spoke to him, reminding him not to have too much psychological pressure.

Obediently acknowledging her counsel, Sheng Yan cautiously glanced at Chuzheng after she finished her instructions, hesitantly asking: ”Will you come on the concert day?”

”Do you want me to come?”

Sheng Yan tightened his grip on the water bottle.

He took a deep breath, bravely nodding: ”Yes.”

”I’ll be there.” Satisfying the Good Person Card’s request!

Sheng Yan’s eyes gleamed: ”Really?”

Chuzheng nodded unabashedly: ”Yes.”

Sheng Yan’s smile was gentle, his eyes seemed to shimmer with stardust, joy evident in his voice: ”You’re so nice.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Haha!

-

Since Chuzheng promised she’d come on the concert day, Sheng Yan remained in a high-energy state while Mu Sheng and Qu Jiangxiao were already exhausted from rehearsals, watching him still so spirited, both found it strange.

On the concert day, Sheng Yan kept glancing at the backstage entrance, but Chuzheng was nowhere to be seen.

The audience outside was gradually entering, Mu Sheng and Qu Jiangxiao were looking at the seats, seeing the fans holding their support items, it excited them.

Sheng Yan had no interest in these.

Restlessly pacing backstage inside.

She still hadn’t come.

The audience seating time was almost over...

Is she not coming?

Sheng Yan walked out holding his phone, Mu Sheng hurriedly called him: ”Little Yan, where are you going?”

”Bathroom.”

Sheng Yan took his phone into the bathroom, closing the door, staring at the number inside for a long time unable to dial.

Maybe she was just delayed by traffic...

She’ll definitely come.

Sheng Yan didn’t dial that number, afraid of hearing what he didn’t want to hear.

”Little Yan, ready yet? It’s almost time!!”

Mu Sheng’s voice came from outside.

Sheng Yan immediately went out: ”Let’s go.”

”Are you nervous?”

”No.”

”Oh, just say if you’re nervous, Jiangxiao and I are nervous too, it’s our first concert.”

”Okay...”

”Is your grandpa not coming?”

”He’s not well; I asked him to watch at home, since there’s a live stream.”

”True, with so many people and such loud sounds, it’s not good if the elderly have an issue.”
