“Oh my G.o.d, I thought dining in Huangting was already the best. I never imagined we would also get a chance to see Stephen perform!”
“I know! I heard that it’s very hard to get a ticket for Stephen’s musical in Broadway. Even their performance here for their world tour is three years later! I can’t believe that President Nan actually managed to invite him to celebrate Mrs Nan’s birthday!”
“I think the Internet will blow up if I started a live-stream now!”
Nan Yao was equally as surprised when she heard Zhuang Jingjing, Bai Weiwei and a few others’ fervent exclamations. She only realized afterwards that they were talking about Stephen, the top performer in musicals. She looked at Nan Weiye happily. “Father, I thought that it’s already very honorable for you to hold mother’s birthday banquet at Huangting this time. I didn’t think that you managed to invite Stephen too!”
Nan Yao was very excited. Although her mother was the main character for tonight, she equally felt everyone’s attention and envy on her, as she was her daughter. “Father, you’re so amazing!”
It was no wonder why her mother followed Nan Weiye faithfully. There was probably no one that could surpa.s.s his methods and ability.
Nan Weiye furrowed his eyebrows as he stared at the excited Nan Yao. He was slightly unhappy. “What Stephen?” He did hire someone to perform for them. However, it was not Stephen.
Bai Weiwei, Zhuang Jingjing and a few others were still standing at the entrance. Stephen was leading his team towards the ballrooms from the main lobby. Stephen was tall and elegant. His blue eyes, perfect features and dignified aura made him seem like the prince he played in the musical. People could not help but blush and scream when they saw him.
Zhuang Jingjing could not help but shout Stephen’s name and waved at him. “Mr Stephen, this way! The ballroom that you’re supposed to come to is this way.”
Nan Weiye had his eyebrows slightly furrowed as he stared at Nan Yao after he heard Zhuang Jingjing’s shout. “I didn’t invite Stephen. Could it be Shaoxiu?”
Nan Yao looked confused before she let out a small exclamation. Her eyes sought Bo Shaoxiu, who was talking to a guest. She felt happy after seeing Bo Shaoxiu’s calm expression. “Father, if you didn’t invite them, then it’s probably Shaoxiu. We got into a small argument a few days ago and he said that he would think about ways to make me happy. I didn’t think that he would actually invite Stephen here without a word!”
Nan Yao had a coy, shy and happy expression while light sparkled in her eyes. “Father, I’ll go to Shaoxiu first.”
She should not have suspected Shaoxiu’s love for her. He definitely spent quite a bit of money and manpower to successfully invite Stephen over!
Nan Yao walked to Bo Shaoxiu. She was about to talk about Stephen with him when she suddenly heard Bai Weiwei shout, “Mr Stephen, you’re going to the wrong place…”
“Hey, why are they walking to the number one ballroom?”
The ballroom was filled with dead silence.
Nan Yao had invited several of her friends and colleagues tonight. They were all young and worked at the broadcasting company. It was natural for them to know what was high-cla.s.s as it was where they aspired to be.
Stephen’s musical was unreachable for them. He represented high-cla.s.s and social status.
“They actually went to the number one ballroom!”
“Hey, the venue for tonight’s birthday banquet written on our invites is the number one ballroom . We’re at the number two ballroom?”
“Did Huangting’s manager arrange wrongly? President Nan booked the number one ballroom while Stephen went to the number one ballroom. That means that Stephen was really invited by President Nan!”
“Let’s go and ask the manager.”
Nan Yao’s expression changed when she saw Zhuang Jingjing getting ready to go to find the manager, with Yu Xiaoting following her.
