The concert was packed!
In the backstage dressing room, Han Feifei was lost in thought, staring blankly.
"Feifei, the concert starts in twenty minutes. What are you spacing out about?" a middle-aged beauty asked urgently as she entered.
"Got it, Auntie!"
Han Feifei quickly changed clothes. Although it wasn't her first performance, it was her first solo concert, making it very important to her.
Soon, the concert began!
Han Feifei, dressed in a gown, appeared before the audience like a shining star, accompanied by a tall, well-known host.
Even though the host was beautiful, she paled in comparison to Han Feifei.
The entire venue erupted in cheers. Since it was a solo concert, most attendees were Han Feifei's fans!
Han Feifei smiled, her eyes scanning the crowd.
However, with tens of thousands of people, it was impossible for her to find a specific person.
It wasn't until the host invited sponsors to the stage for speeches, and the spotlights illuminated the VIP seats in the front row, that Han Feifei finally spotted Ye Cangtian sitting next to Tang Xinwan.
A faint smile curved her lips, and she beamed radiantly.
In the VIP section, Tang Xiaowu, seated next to Ye Cangtian, stared wide-eyed and exclaimed, "Brother-in-law, Han Feifei is truly beautiful. I was thinking of selling this ticket to some rich second-generation heirs, but now I'm glad I didn't."
At that moment, Tang Xinwan, invited by the host, went on stage to give a speech.
Ye Cangtian chuckled, "Why don't you say that in front of your sister?"
Tang Xiaowu chuckled sheepishly, "My sister is also beautiful, with her own unique charm that complements Han Feifei's. By the way, brother-in-law, where have you been for the past half month? I asked my sister, but she wouldn't tell me!"
"Then I won't tell you either!"
"..." Tang Xiaowu.
Ye Cangtian smiled faintly and looked up at the stage where Tang Xinwan was speaking.
It had to be said, standing on stage with Han Feifei gave off an aura of unparalleled brilliance.
One in a purple dress, captivatingly beautiful.
The other in a white gown, like a celestial fairy descended from heaven.
Not only was Ye Cangtian momentarily stunned, but even the Han Feifei fans from out of town were gazing at the two women on stage with unwavering attention.
Soon, Tang Xinwan descended from the stage; she had only appeared as a representative of the sponsor.
However, as she came down, she instinctively reached out and grasped Ye Cangtian's hand.
Ye Cangtian smiled helplessly, "Is it that serious? Your palms are sweating from just saying a few words up there!"
Tang Xinwan let out a soft breath, then shot him a glare, "What do you know? Try speaking in front of tens of thousands of people!"
That was true! Ye Cangtian gave a sheepish smile.
If he were to speak on that stage in front of thousands of people, he would probably forget his lines.
Uncle Tang Yongchang and his wife had also arrived. Seeing Tang Xinwan descend, they smiled and praised from several seats away, "Xinwan, you did well. Xiaowu, you should learn more from your sister and brother-in-law."
In recent times, his uncle's family had been treating Tang Xinwan and Ye Cangtian quite well.
Perhaps it was because the Tang family's rising prominence was related to the two of them, which had gradually changed his uncle's attitude.
Suddenly, the entire venue erupted!
Han Feifei's performance began, accompanied by screams and cheers.
On stage, Han Feifei had changed into a dress with an ancient aesthetic. She performed a graceful dance while emitting melodious sounds.
Gradually, everyone in the concert hall fell silent, quietly appreciating her performance.
Ye Cangtian watched with great interest. It was his first time seeing Han Feifei perform and hearing her ethereal voice.
He had to admit, listening to her sing was addictive.
Beside him, Tang Xinwan noticed him watching intently and couldn't help but furrow her delicate brow, asking, "Han Feifei is very beautiful, isn't she?"
"Yes, beautiful!"
"Then, who is more beautiful, her or me?" Tang Xinwan couldn't help but feel a hint of jealousy.
"You are both beautiful!"
Ye Cangtian turned to look at Tang Xinwan. Seeing her raise an eyebrow, he quickly added, "But in my eyes, you are still the most beautiful. How can Han Feifei compare to you!"
Tang Xinwan blushed at his words and couldn't help but give him a look, huffing, "Sweet talk. I bet you've been messing around with other women for the past half month. You're so skilled at coaxing people!"
"Not at all, you're overthinking it!"
Ye Cangtian replied casually, then his gaze drifted towards the back of the stage.
He couldn't help but frown; he had just sensed someone observing him.
...
In the resting room behind the stage, a mature and sexy woman drew the curtain, revealing a smile as she said, "This person is quite vigilant!"
Yun Lan, the behind-the-scenes boss of Yunmeng Entertainment Company, had come to Yangzhou as the organizer of the concert.
Behind Yun Lan was Liu Rumei, who explained, "Mr. Ye's strength is immense, and his vigilance is indeed high. When he first came to Jinxiu Mountain Villa, he immediately noticed Yang Yi's presence."
"A formidable individual indeed!"
Yun Lan nodded and suddenly asked, "You mentioned earlier that Ye Cangtian hasn't been in Yangzhou for the past half month. Do you know where he went?"
Liu Rumei shook her head, "I'm not entirely sure. I only know he left half a month ago. If I hadn't seen him just now, I would have thought he hadn't returned yet!"
"Half a month!"
Yun Lan's brow furrowed. She had heard that the Dark Association had notified some of its members to head overseas half a month ago, reportedly related to some ruins.
Of course, as a Yellow Rank member, she wasn't on that list, so she wasn't fully aware of the matter.
Previously, she had suspected if this person might be from China's Dragon Group.
But now, it seemed highly likely that this Ye Cangtian was a member of the Dark Association!
With this thought, Yun Lan looked at Liu Rumei and said calmly, "From today onwards, you are to closely monitor Ye Cangtian's every move. If he exhibits any strange behavior or goes anywhere, report it to me immediately!"
Liu Rumei paused slightly, hesitating.
"Mr. Ye shouldn't be a truly wicked person, right? We have no enmity with him, and he has helped us multiple times. Doing this might be..."
"Liu Rumei!"
Yun Lan frowned, giving her a deep look, and reminded her, "Know your place. You and I are both servants of the Master. Our purpose is to clear all obstacles for the Master."
She stood up, took a deep breath, and continued, "Liu Rumei, among the thirty-six villas of Yulong, you are the only one who is an ordinary person. Do you know why I chose you?"
"Because I know you are a smart woman!"
"I know what to do now!" Liu Rumei, dressed in a qipao, bowed slightly.
