Perfect singing

  "Not bad, don't be too thick, when I get home I rarely remove makeup, just casually mess with it, and that's about it"

  "Is is is" Fei Xue hastily nodded, "Don't worry, I will definitely make everyone's eyes widen in surprise."

  "It's not a beauty pageant, what's the point of dressing up so nicely?"

  "Sister, the moment to show your face has arrived, all the high-level executives in the company will be there. If you don't seize this opportunity well, who knows, maybe someone will take a liking to you and scoop you up, and you'll soar to great heights!"

  Si Mian rolled her eyes and said, "Don't be ridiculous, sister is doing it for the money, can't you see how shameless she is?"

  Xia Ri angrily said, "Toward Si Yi is dancing, I heard that she had been preparing her outfit for several days, losing the person but not the momentum, how can you just casually mess around"

  Ci Mian didn't think so, she was just here to make up the numbers, singing a song was all, it wasn't like Mount Hua's martial arts competition, where there had to be a winner and loser.

  Xiang Siyi had removed her makeup and hadn't changed out of her clothes yet, she sat in the adjacent resting room, surrounded by her friends who were chattering away about something, while she calmly sat there.

  I didn't expect Van Sen to come backstage, attracting many people's attention.

  Si Mian saw him in the mirror and slightly furrowed his brow. What was he doing here? Hopefully, it wasn't to find her; that would be too high-profile, after all, Tian Heng was a prince.

  "It's indeed three parts due to her looks and seven parts due to makeup." Vansen stood behind her, looking at the reflection of her in the mirror.

  Damn it, really found her, should I do this?

  "Is that why you came here, to humiliate me? Alright, I've got it. You can leave now. There are many people changing clothes here, be careful not to see what you shouldn't and get a needle in your eye."

  Manston smiled and said, "Actually, looking at you now, you're quite pretty."

  Everyone likes to be praised, after all she is a girl, and Si Man felt a little embarrassed.

  "You're still shy"

  "Alright, alright, hurry up and get out!" Si Wei stood up and pushed him towards the door.

  When walking away, Van Sen's face was serious, "This is an opportunity, grasp it well, strive to make the high-level remember you, which is beneficial for your future development."

  "Oh" She seemed to understand and yet not understand, she just sang a song anyway.

  "Don't take my words lightly, just listen and don't get nervous, bring out your best state, I'll cheer you on from below"

  What's there to be nervous about? It's just singing a song, it's not like killing someone.

  Through her eyes, Fang Sen knew that this girl was not nervous at all, and she probably defined herself as a supporting role again. But it's good this way, only with a calm mind can one perform to the best of their abilities.

  "Left"

  "Go back to your positions and stop staring. Don't ask anything, there's no relationship between us, okay?"

  …..

  He received a call from Mr. Gu, who apologized and said he couldn't come due to something urgent that had come up.

  It doesn't matter whether he comes or not, Si Wei thought, and didn't feel like he had been stood up.

  It's almost five o'clock, and in more than an hour, people outside will start coming in one after another, what a lively scene.

  Xia Ri and Fei Xue opened the curtain and took a look, so many people, they were nervous to death, just like when they were about to go on stage.

  "Mianmian, aren't you nervous? There are over a thousand people outside, and even the media has arrived"

  "Just treat all of them as pumpkins"

  "Pumpkin?" She actually thought of it.

  Around six o'clock, Gu Mo called her, and Si Wei was quite surprised. Usually, Uncle Gu would call at night.

  "How's the preparation going?"

  "It's all right, but it will start in a while, I hope it starts soon so I can go home and sleep."

  "Haha, from your tone, you seem quite confident"

  "Of course, it will linger for three days." Si Mian said with a stinky tone.

  Don't talk too big, or you'll get nervous and forget your tone, that's embarrassing.

  "Hmph, no way"

  "Let's talk about it tonight, I still have something on, hang up first."

  Gu Mo hurriedly walked out of the airport with quick steps, and Leng Nan followed behind him, feeling a bit strange. Mr. Gu was in such a hurry this time, looking very anxious.

  As soon as I got on the bus, I didn't expect it to get stuck in traffic as soon as it went onto the elevated road. Looking at the endless stream of cars in front of me, Gu Mo's eyebrows were furrowed so tightly they could have squashed a mosquito.

  "This time I don't know how long it will take" said Leng Nan sitting in the driver's seat muttering to herself.

  Leng Nan saw from the rearview mirror that Gu Mo frequently looked at the time, it was already 6:17, the party had started, and that girl's program should be at 7 o'clock, hoping to catch up.

  What exactly happened, that could make the normally calm and composed Gu Mo become so flustered, this was the first time Leng Nan had seen.

  "Leng Nan, go ask what happened up ahead and get someone to come deal with it quickly"

  "Yes, Mr. Gu"

  …..

  In the background, Xiang Yi had already changed into her dance attire. She was performing a classical dance, with elegant and refined clothing, wearing a hairpin, giving off a classic charm.

  Si Rou was wearing a white long dress, with layer upon layer of lotus leaf edges all the way to her bare feet, and on her feet were white canvas shoes. Her hair was braided on one side, and in the back it was styled into big waves, looking cute yet elegant.

  Both of them were very beautiful and gazed at each other.

  "Let's see, tonight is your applause or my popularity high?" Xiang Siyi said.

  "Alright" was just a casual response from Si Mian, he didn't take it seriously at all.

  Xiang Siyi's smile carried a hint of disdain, "Confidence is good, but being arrogant is somewhat overestimating oneself." After saying that, she left.

  She mimicked her tone, then curled up her lips and snorted, who knows who was proud of herself.

  She thinks that Xiang Siyi's brain is sick, always treating her as an imaginary enemy, being overly nervous, and should go see a doctor.

  Curious about the situation in front, Si Mian secretly stayed by the stage and lifted the curtain to take a look. It was pitch black and packed with people, and there were even many people standing around. Among these people, not only were there Tian Heng's, but also Huán Qiú's, and even those from various other companies.

  Expected there would be a lot of people, but didn't expect so many. Swallowing hard, he felt inexplicably nervous.

  She had sung on stage before, but there were only a few dozen people in the audience, all of whom were her classmates, and that was back when she was in junior high school.

  At this moment, Si Mian finally realized that she was going to stand on the stage in front of thousands of people and sing. If she sang well, it would bring glory to her department and company; if she sang poorly, it would not only be a loss of face for herself, but also for Tian Heng.

  ….

  On the elevated platform, Gu Mo's emotions became increasingly agitated.

  Leng Nan returned, "Mr. Gu, the big bridge ahead has temporarily encountered a problem, and the staff are rushing to repair it. I asked, and it will be repaired in about two hours."

  "It's neither early nor late, but it has to be at this time." Gu Mo was extremely unsettled. "Arrange a different route for me immediately, I need to return to the city district right away."

  "It's now rush hour after work, and the surrounding area is jammed for who knows how long, can't get the car to move"

  Gu Mo didn't say another word and immediately picked up his coat, ready to leave.

  Leng Nan caught up, "Mr. Gu, why don't we wait a bit? If we leave now, it'll take at least an hour to get to the car, and with so many dark clouds in the sky, it might even rain later."

  It won't work, he can't wait that long.

  ….

  It's Xiang Siyi's turn now, to be honest, she dances very well, her figure is charming and graceful, every time she turns around, the men in the audience get excited and scream frequently.

  Suddenly, Gu Xi sent a WeChat message. Upon opening it, it was a photo, which surprisingly showed the scene inside the venue. Si Mian hurriedly searched and found himself in the middle of the 10th row, where he saw not only Gu Xi but also Lü Qingyan, and even Gu Qi had arrived.

  He immediately dialed the phone, and his voice was filled with excitement. "Didn't you say you weren't coming?"

  "In order to give you a surprise" A smile appeared on Gu Xi's face.

  Si Mian saw Lü Qingyan pat Gu Xi's shoulder, then saw Gu Xi hand his phone to Lü Qingyan.

  "Ah, good girl, come on, grandma will always be with you." Lü Qingyan was particularly excited, and then she heard the other side say, "Old man, quickly say a few words to your daughter-in-law."

  Gu Qi seemed somewhat ill at ease, took over the phone, cleared his throat and stiffly said, "Perform well"

  Good

  He hung up the phone and became even more tense, his father-in-law and mother-in-law had arrived, Alexander!

  His shoulder was suddenly patted by someone, and Sima turned around to see that it was Fansen again. "You're not sitting in your seat watching the performance, what are you doing here?"

  Vanston leaned against the wall at will, "Let's see if someone is still nervous"

  "Alright, I admit it," said Si Mian with a sigh.

  "Haha, it's okay, relax, even if you sang badly I'll still give you applause. I've already applauded, Tian Heng, who else would dare not to follow and applaud?"

  He let out a "pu" sound and burst into laughter, something that only he could come up with.

  "Just laugh it off, actually there's nothing to it. When you're standing on stage, don't look at anyone in the audience, look at the floor, or the backdrop behind you, or just pretend to be intoxicated and sing with your eyes closed."

  "Okay, I'll try my best." Suddenly found out, he's actually quite funny when speaking.

  Wensheng stood up straight, opened his arms, and then hugged her. As she was about to struggle, he leaned into her ear and said, "Pass my courage on to you, so you won't be nervous, let the small universe of Si Mian burst forth."

  His breath swept across her earlobe, stirring a few strands of hair. There was no heavy perfume on her body, only the faint scent of jasmine flowers. The girl's body fragrance invaded his nostrils, stirring his heart and causing his heartbeat to suddenly accelerate. At that moment, Vansen's heart began to beat rapidly.

  The applause was enthusiastic as Siyi took her final bow and exited the stage.

  Van let her go, his hands in his pockets, gazing at her face and saying, "Two more to go until it's your turn."

  "Ah," said the person with a radiant smile, patting his shoulder, "Don't worry about me, I'll work hard."

  Her eyes smiled into crescent moons, and there were faint dimples at the corners of her mouth, so enchanting that Van Sen was somewhat mesmerized.

  ….

  Gu Xian handed the program schedule to Lü Qingyan.

  "Old man, next is Mianmian, Mianmian will sing an English song." Lü Qingyan excitedly pulled on Gu Qi's arm.

  Guo Qi's back was straight as a pen, scanning the program list with a glance, muttering softly, "Singing English songs, can't even understand what they're saying"

  Lü Qingyan smiled secretly. The old man had always been competitive, but in the end, he was defeated by English. He even sent "hao are you" as "" (hǎo hā yōu).

  "Old man, songs have no borders."

  "Of course I know," Gu Qi said with emphasis.

  …..

  It was Su Wen's turn to perform, and Van Sen personally went to the lighting control room, shining only one spotlight on her, making her look exceptionally beautiful.

  After Si Mian left, he listened to Fan Sen's words without looking at anyone below the stage.

  The melody of "Rolling in the Deep" flows out slowly, and when she starts singing, her almost fake-real singing voice, cheers and screams fill the air.

  Lian Gu Qi's fingers also tapped her knees in rhythm with hers.

  Lü Qingyan saw Gu Qi's action and leaned into his ear to say, "How is it? My wife's voice isn't bad, right?"

  Gu Qi hastily clenched his fist to conceal his previous action, feigning calmness, and said in a rough tone, "It's alright"

  "Look, your dad is still stubborn, but he actually thinks his daughter-in-law sings well," said Lü Qingyan to Gu Xi.

  "Stop talking and listen to the song."

  Some of the audience were so excited that they stood up, waving glow sticks. Perhaps infected by this, Si Wen became more and more open, starting to interact with people below, full of confidence all over, as if he was born for this stage.

  "Ji Mian, we love you, come on!" Xia Ri and Fei Xue shouted the loudest below, stirring up the people around them.

  Continuous flying kisses, the scene is bustling with excitement, and the smile on her face shines brighter than the sun.

  "Ah, Mengmeng, I love you too!" Lv Qingyan stood up, putting her hands to her mouth and shouting, looking like a mischievous old child.

  "Be careful not to strain your waist," although that's what he said, but Gu Qi couldn't help but curve up the corners of his mouth into a smile.

  "Guo Xi, hurry up and get up to give your sister-in-law some energy, hurry up!" Lv Qingyan pulled Guo Xi.

  "Mom, there are so many people, it won't matter if I'm one less." Gu Xi really couldn't bring himself to make such a crazy loud shout.

  "Is that so? She's your sister-in-law, we're family, and now is the time to let Mianmian know how much we love her!" Lü Qingyan waved her fluorescent stick with both hands, extremely excited. "Mianmian, I love you to death——"

  Guo Xi was really embarrassed, waving the glow stick a couple of times before shrinking back into his chair.

  In the control room, Vansen gazed at the radiant girl on stage. She was so lively and sweet that she became the focus of attention from thousands of people, her whole body filled with passionate and unrestrained energy, like a warm ray of sunshine on a winter's day.

  He had never focused on looking at a girl like this before.

  On the other hand, the traffic started to move slowly, and Leng Nan said excitedly, "Mr. Gu, we can go now."

  Gu Mo quickly got on the car, "I want to go back at the fastest speed"

  "Okay," said Ling Nan hastily starting the car.

  …..

  As soon as she finished her last note, thunderous applause erupted from the audience, and the entire venue was in a frenzy, with screams of excitement rising and falling.

  "Encore! Encore!" everyone shouted in unison.

  Just as Si Mian was about to step down, the host came on stage and stopped her, smiling and asking, "Si Mian, please stay for a moment, you've seen the enthusiasm of the audience below, do you want to sing another one?" The host asked the people below, "Do you want her to sing another one?"

  "Want——"

  Such enthusiasm was unexpected by Si Mian, she was very happy, and today she finally made Tian Heng proud, haha, with a strong sense of pride.

  "May I get ready then?"

  "Alright, let's let Xiaowei take a break first and rest for a bit. When she's ready, we'll come back with an encore."

  In the back, Si Mian had just sat down in the chair and was paralyzed there, really tired, never knew that even singing could be so tiring, and felt dry mouth and tongue.

  Wang Sen put a cup of milk tea in front of her, "It's really not bad, if you don't listen carefully, you'd think it's the original singer."

  "Hehe..." was praised, Si Mian laughed so hard that she lost her composure, but immediately afterwards, she hastily took a few sips and drank too quickly, even letting out a belch. She hurriedly covered her mouth.

  Wang Sen smiled and patted her shoulder, "Take a good rest, later when the evening party is about to end, you still need to sing one more song to close it." After that, he left.

  He just left, and Xia Ri and Fei Xue slipped in, suddenly hugging her, "Awesome, your voice is as good as Wang Fei's, it's really great!"

  She was hugged by the two of them from front and back, almost suffocating to death. "Ahh, you guys want to murder me! Let go quickly, I'm running out of breath!"

  Both of them are big-breasted, one in front and one behind, pressing against her, what's the point, treating her like a sandwich cookie?

  "On a summer day, I couldn't help but feel excited. 'You don't know how ugly Xiang Siyi's face is, it's just like feces.'"

  "Yes, just now I saw her almost falling down when she went to the toilet, muttering and grumbling." Feixue imitated Xiangsi's mouth and face, performing for them.

  "Alright, let's just keep quiet, too many people and too much gossip, it's better to say less."

  "Are you hungry? I'll go with Feixue to buy something for you. Today, there's still the department excellent award ceremony and all that, it'll probably take another hour before it's over, you eat something first to fill your stomach," Xia Ri said.

  "Okay, I want milk tea, extra pearls, and add ice, go quickly."

  "Alright then, you just wait and see. By the way, we've already booked a time slot for later, so we must have a celebratory dinner."

  "No problem" answered Si Mian with a smile, and the two of them quickly ran off.

  Cai Mian didn't expect her mother-in-law and them to come backstage looking for her, so she took them to a quiet corridor on the side.

  "Brother-in-law, you're great! You and big brother are really a match made in heaven. Let me tell you a secret, big brother sings really well too, but he rarely sings."

  Si Mian's face turned red with a smile, "Hehe, really? Then I must hear it"

  Lü Qingyan held her hand, "Mianmian, I've already booked a restaurant, your dad hasn't had dinner yet, let's go together"

  Si Mian hesitated for a moment.

  "What's wrong?" asked Lü Qingyan.

  "Grandma, my friend has gone to buy food for me and is probably on his way back now."

  To be honest, she actually wanted to have dinner with Xia Ri and the others more, after all they were of the same age group, there was no need to hold back in conversation, but when eating with her grandparents, she never had a full meal.

  But today, for this meal, she knew her mother-in-law was kind and wanted to bring them closer together. If it weren't for Xia Ri and the others, she would definitely go, even if she wouldn't be full, but Xia Ri and the others came back and saw that she wasn't there, they would definitely be very disappointed, after all, tonight they were really happy, more excited than her.

  Si Mian stole a glance at Gu Qi, looking serious, just like when he was scowling at Gu Mo.

  Lü Qingyan's face was filled with disappointment.

  "She won't go then, we'll go ourselves," Gu Qi said and turned around to leave.
