Chapter 1285 — The Concert Opens - As Xu Shilan's Close Guard, Feng Sanhuang Often Wore That Silly Dazed Look, and That Was Exactly Why Xu Shilan and Sister Wang Had No Guard Against Him at All! He Was Nothing Like Other Men Who Would Cast Lustful Looks at Xu Shilan!
Of course, they had no idea that Feng Sanhuang was actually an undercover agent! They had all been fooled by his calm exterior!
"Sister Wang, you're back!" Seeing Sister Wang return, Xu Shilan nodded to her. In truth, Xu Shilan had never for a moment believed that Zhao Qibing would have a change of heart. She had seen far too many men like him, rotten with lust and never giving up until they got what they wanted!
Still, many young masters who came knocking on her door afterward vanished without a trace, either reined in by their families or evaporated from the world under bizarre circumstances! Although Xu Shilan did not believe these were all coincidences, she had not a single clue!
Xu Shilan even wondered if this was Heaven showing pity for her tragic past.
"Su Jiaonang came, and it was nothing but the same old talk as before, asking whether you, Xiaohan, would agree to Zhao Qibing's demands. I refused him outright." Sister Wang said to Xu Shilan: "Xiaohan, this time Sister Wang misjudged. I asked you to come treat an illness, and instead it has brought you trouble!"
"Sister Wang, don't say that. You did it for my own good. How could I blame you for this?" Xu Shilan quickly waved her hand and said: "Sister Wang, forget it. I have lived with this illness for so many years and held on through it all. I'll be fine!"
"That's right, our Xiaohan is strong enough!" Sister Wang said with a smile.
On one side Xu Shilan was preparing to go on stage, while on the other side tens of thousands of spectators were already pouring into the Songshan Cultural Sports Stadium. With Gu Pengzhan's standing in Songshan, getting a few front-row VIP tickets was child's play.
The five of them sat in the very front row of the stadium. Apart from Wei Zhao, the four girls were all especially excited. Tang Yun, above all, had never imagined that she would one day indulge in such a luxury as attending a concert! And with front-row VIP tickets, no less!
Although she had not paid for the ticket herself, Tang Yun was still thrilled, though for all her happiness she did not show it outwardly.
Feng Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, was screaming at the top of her lungs together with Shen Yushu: "Xu Shilan! Xu Shilan! Xu Shilan!"
Gu Mengyao and Tang Yun exchanged a look, both a little helpless. They were fans, to be sure, but not fanatical. Both were quiet by nature, unlike Feng Xiaoxiao and Shen Yushu, who would cheer along with the atmosphere in the arena!
Only Wei Zhao sat in the VIP seats dozing as if nothing were happening! To fall asleep at Xu Shilan's concert, Wei Zhao was probably the one and only! Although the concert had not yet begun, which fan was not waiting in excitement? Who could possibly fall asleep?
Wei Zhao was actually cultivating. Ever since hearing Jiao Yazi's words and learning that Feng Xiaoxiao did not have long to live, he had begun to cultivate madly day and night, seizing every chance to close his eyes and enter the jade pendant space to train!
Because Wei Zhao knew that some problems could only be solved once he possessed absolute power! So what he wanted most now was to level up!
"Arrow Bro, how can you be falling asleep?" Shen Yushu glanced at Wei Zhao with some puzzlement.
"Xiaoshu, don't disturb him. He's cultivating!" Gu Mengyao knew Wei Zhao well. Once before, when Wei Zhao had closed his eyes while watching television, Gu Mengyao had asked him about it, so there was no doubt this time either, Wei Zhao was cultivating again!
Gu Mengyao had in fact partly guessed what was on Wei Zhao's mind, which was to gain supreme power as soon as possible so he could heal Feng Xiaoxiao!
"Oh..." Shen Yushu nodded and stopped disturbing Wei Zhao.
Anyway, as far as watching the concert went, whether Wei Zhao watched or not had nothing to do with her.
Wei Zhao truly had little interest in Xu Shilan. There were already more than enough beauties at home, big and small. He could not possibly grow interested in some distant, illusory so-called star! Was she not just a little girl who could sing and dance and bounce around on stage?
The eldest miss, Xiaoshu, Yunyun, and Xiaoxiao could all do that. Wei Zhao had no need to go watch someone else.
After a period of waiting, the lights in the stadium suddenly went dark, and the music that had been playing came to an abrupt halt. Xu Shilan was about to appear!
And the audience in the arena all broke into excited cheers at that moment!
"Xu Shilan, Xu Shilan, Xu Shilan!" Everyone was screaming. Glow sticks, little spoons, and laser wands waved ceaselessly in the air. Shen Yushu and Feng Xiaoxiao, like all the other fans, had risen to their feet, swaying their bodies to the rhythm of the chant!
Wei Zhao frowned and covered his ears with his hands. The noise was unbearable.
The stage suddenly blazed bright. Lights of alternating colors shot toward it, and one huge beam fell upon it as well. A mechanism on the stage suddenly activated, and a high platform slowly rose from below!
This was the entrance routine for almost every star! The stadium stage was surrounded on all sides, so a star could only emerge from beneath the stage, never through the audience!
"Whoa--!" Seeing Xu Shilan appear in a pink youthful outfit, the fans throughout the arena boiled over with cheers once more!
"Hello, dear fans, I am Xu Shilan!" After taking the stage, Xu Shilan greeted everyone present with great politeness and humility: "Thank you all so much for coming to the Songshan Cultural Sports Stadium for my live concert. For that, I express my deepest gratitude!"
Wei Zhao opened his eyes and looked at the little girl on stage. Her figure and face were beyond reproach, but who knew whether those words just now were true or false? Was she thanking the fans for coming here to deliver money to her?
In short, Wei Zhao had little interest in her. After a few glances, he closed his eyes again.
As for Wei Zhao's behavior, whether it was the eldest miss, Xiaoshu, Yunyun, or Xiaoxiao, they all felt helpless and relieved at once. This guy Wei Zhao was truly wasting his ticket! Still, he was at least not lecherous, seeing such a beautiful girl, he could actually close his eyes and keep cultivating?
It seemed Xu Shilan's place in Wei Zhao's heart was far below Feng Xiaoxiao's!
In fact, that was indeed the case. Wei Zhao would never care whether Xu Shilan lived or died. If Xu Shilan and Feng Xiaoxiao were laid bare before him, the first one Wei Zhao looked at would definitely be Feng Xiaoxiao.
However, Wei Zhao had to admit that Xu Shilan's voice was indeed very sweet. The songs sung from her mouth sounded heavenly! Moreover, with his sharp eyes, Wei Zhao could clearly tell that Xu Shilan was singing live, not lip-syncing!
For that, Wei Zhao was rather satisfied. At least Xu Shilan was a serious artist, and his impression of her improved a little. But it was only slightly better than before, as for liking her, that was out of the question!
