Ling wandered around the base camp for a mont and saw that everything was well-organized, which relieved him. This was thanks to Zhou Qi’s help, as the experienced housekeeper made sure Ling didn’t have to worry about any daily matters.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Ling bid farewell to Tang Guolun and left the base camp alone.
On the drive towards Wealthy Manor, Ling suddenly passed the sports arena of East Sea City. Seeing the huge posters outside, he imdiately pulled his car over to the side of the road. Last ti he called Tang Shiyun, it was her agent who answered and inford him that Tang Shiyun had been rehearsing at the arena for the concert taking place in half a month.
Since he was passing by the arena and had nothing else to do, why not visit Tang Shiyun? It had been a while since he last saw the girl, and Ling missed her a lot.
After getting out of the car, Ling bought so fruit from a nearby stall and carried two large bags towards the arena entrance. Before he even reached the entrance, he saw a large crowd of fans gathered outside, holding banners and posters of Tang Shiyun. It seed they were waiting for her appearance.
Wow!
Ling couldn’t help but marvel at the allure of a celebrity.
As he pondered this, he arrived at the entrance but was stopped by several security guards stationed outside. Ling had no choice but to call Tang Shiyun. As expected, it was still her agent who answered.
After waiting outside for about five minutes, a woman in high heels, about 1.7 ters tall, ca out from inside the arena.
The woman was dressed in a mature style, appearing to be around thirty years old. Although her looks were ordinary, she exuded a certain intellectual air unique to sophisticated won.
"Mr. Ling, I’m very sorry to have kept you waiting." The woman quickly approached Ling and apologized with embarrassnt.
"It’s alright." Ling smiled slightly, "I should be the one apologizing for disturbing your work."
"Not at all, Mr. Ling coming to see Shiyun’s rehearsal will surely make her very happy. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, I’m Xu Hong, Shiyun’s agent. It’s nice to et you, please take care of ."
"You’re too kind, Miss Xu." Ling politely shook hands with her.
"Mr. Ling, let’s go. I’ll take you inside."
Watching Xu Hong walk ahead, Ling nodded lightly. She was indeed a nice person, polite and modest, much easier to get along with than Tang Shiyun’s previous agent.
With Xu Hong leading the way, Ling soon arrived at the center of the arena. Since the concert was set to take place in half a month, the main stage had already been set up, and staff were installing lights and screens on it.
In the center of the main stage, Tang Shiyun, dressed in loose casual clothing and holding a microphone, was rehearsing a dance with a group of dancers. It seed like the rehearsal had been going on for a while, as sweat was streaming down her forehead, and her singing voice was slightly breathless.
Watching Tang Shiyun’s earnest rehearsal, Xu Hong smiled and said, "Miss Tang is a very talented and hardworking artist. Even though her talent is several tis stronger than others, she never slacks off and always strives to improve herself and beco more perfect." With that, Xu Hong turned to look at Ling, "Mr. Ling, do you know what Shiyun usually talks to about?"
"What does she talk about?"
"You."
"?" Ling pointed to his own nose and asked, confused, "What’s there to talk about ?"
"Every ti Miss Tang talks about you, she becos very happy, as if you’re the only one who can bring a smile to her face. To be honest, Miss Tang’s life is rather dull, often flying across the country to attend various events. Sotis, she genuinely feels tired of it, but there’s nothing she can do to refuse. After all, she’s already stepped into this world and must abide by its rules; many things are unavoidable for her. Also, Miss Tang’s personality has beco sowhat reclusive, not very fond of socializing with others. Of course, you can’t bla her entirely; many n approach Miss Tang with ulterior motives. Over ti, she’s grown tired of it. Instead of faking interactions with others, she’d rather stay alone at ho."
After hearing Xu Hong’s words, Ling couldn’t help but feel sowhat guilty. Recently, he’d been caught up with his own matters, seldom paying attention to Tang Shiyun’s life. He thought since she was now successful and famous, she must have been living happily. But after listening to Xu Hong, he realized that Tang Shiyun’s life wasn’t as good as he thought; maybe materially it was rich, but her spiritual life was very empty.
"Why didn’t you let her call ?"
"I suggested it, but Miss Tang said you were busy, and she didn’t want to disturb your work."
"I..." Ling opened his mouth but then swallowed his words. He vaguely rembered Tang Shiyun had called him twice, but at those tis, he was dealing with important matters and didn’t have the ti to chat, so he hung up after a few brief words. Probably because of this, Tang Shiyun didn’t want to call him again.
Thinking this, Ling couldn’t help but silently curse himself. It was all his fault that Tang Shiyun ended up this way.
As they spoke, the rehearsal on the main stage had co to an end. Xu Hong walked forward, clapping her hands, "Alright! That’s it for today, everyone worked hard. Let’s go have a break."
"Sister Hong, it’s only been two hours, isn’t it too early to rest?" Tang Shiyun said while wiping the sweat off her forehead.
"Shiyun, look who’s here." Xu Hong smiled and pointed at Ling.
Seeing Ling standing beneath the stage, Tang Shiyun was dumbfounded and didn’t regain her senses for quite a while.
Seeing this, Ling took the initiative to step onto the stage, looking at the stunned Tang Shiyun, and said with a smile, "What, don’t recognize anymore?"
"Ling... Ling!" Tang Shiyun mumbled, rubbing her eyes hard, as if she couldn’t believe Ling was really there.
Ling gently patted her head with affection and said with a smile, "Silly girl, you got it right, it’s ."
"Ling, you finally ca to see ." Tang Shiyun opened her arms wide, tightly hugging Ling’s waist, burying her head in his chest with a happy smile blooming on her delicate face.
Ling smiled slightly, gently patting Tang Shiyun’s back, and said, "Why didn’t you tell when you returned to East Sea City? I always thought you were still away."
Tang Shiyun said shyly, "I... I was afraid of bothering you."
"Silly girl." Ling used his finger to flick Tang Shiyun’s nose and said with feigned annoyance, "Even if you did bother , I’d still be happy."
