Chapter 1193: New-year Concert

There was an icy look in Cheng Yingnis eyes.

Zhuang Xiaoai took a long time outside, and she didnt want to listen to Hu Yuling any longer, so she came out with the excuse of looking for her.

Much to her surprise, Zhuang Xiaoai had gone to find Xia Xibei!

Would Xia Xibei be nice to someone elses a.s.sistant?

Was that not a problem? Ha! No way she would believe it!

Feeling the intensity of Cheng Yingnis stare, Zhuang Xiaoai couldnt help but s.h.i.+ver a bit, her face turning as pale as a piece of paper.

Xia Xibei also walked out from behind her. When she locked eyes with Cheng Yingni, she was taken aback for a second, but quickly got her head around the situation.

Cheng Yingni must be thinking that they had done something fishy behind her back.

Xiaoais hand was injured, so I bandaged it up for her.

Cheng Yingni flashed a small smile, You helped her with it? Thanks a lot.

She was wearing a fake smile with cold eyes. There was not the least bit of warmth in that smile.

Zhuang Xiaoai could hardly stand still, because the look in Cheng Yingnis eyes was so cold that it made her uneasy.

Come back here. Pack my things up, I gotta go, Cheng Yingni told Zhuang Xiaoai without inflection.

Sure, sure! Zhuang Xiaoai nodded eagerly and hurried over.

Cheng Yingnis expression turned somewhat sarcastic as she glanced at the band-aid on Zhuang Xiaoais hand.

She wasnt injured when she came out a while ago, and now she was wearing a band-aid. What a great act!

Ill go first then, Cheng Yingni gave Xia Xibei a smile.

Okay, Im also leaving in a while, Xia Xibei also returned a polite smile.

The two seemed to be getting along really well, and there was no sign of ill feelings between them.

Just after they turned around, however, the smiles on both their faces disappeared.

The next evening, all of them gathered at the stage once again and started getting things in place.

Every new-year concert was a live broadcast, and there was no room for error.

Imperial TV was a wealthy enterprise. Many famous celebrities were invited, thus high ratings were guaranteed.

As long as these stars performed well, fans would support the show.

Cheng Yingni was seated in her seat as the stylist did her make-up.

She was wearing a very beautiful dress with long sleeves today.

The dress had a thin fabric, so it might not stand it when she got on stage. However, she insisted on wearing such a dress.

It would be aired live in a while, so she had to look her best.

As the stylist was busy with her make-up, Cheng Yingni was sneering within.

After going back last night, she kept mulling over it, which only made her angrier. Hence, without heeding Hu Yulings warning, she made some arrangements by herself.

Soon, she could watch Xia Xibei making a fool of herself!

That mindset put her in a good mood, which made her forget about what happened with Zhuang Xiaoai.

Zhuang Xiaoai looked at Cheng Yingni and carefully hid behind her.

Although Cheng Yingni seemed to be in a good mood, her temperamental character had frightened her.

However, she could only endure it in order to make more money for her grandmothers treatment.

By the time Cheng Yingnis make-up was done, the show had started.

Cheng Yingni and Xia Xibeis sequence were about the same, and they would both appear on stage midway of the show.

That was when the ratings would be at its peak.

This time around, Xia Xibei came up first.

She was wearing a gorgeous fishtail dress, which outlined her immaculate figure.

Her delicate make-up accentuated her already beautiful features,

The audience went wild when she got on stage.

Xia Xibei would sing two songs on the show, which were both from her previous alb.u.m.

When the music began, she started singing while walking around on the stage.

When she got to a certain spot, however, she stopped in her tracks and did not take another step forward.
