Marrying the Divorced Female Protagonist O After Transmigrating into a Book - Chapter 39

Before Sun Qianyi’s performance, Zhao Xinyu watched several other acts. Every performance had its own characteristics, truly living up to the reputation of City A’s most popular and highly anticipated stage. The group dances and group singing were all perfectly synchronized. The individual performances were equally spectacular. Zhao Xinyu watched the performances from the audience, joining everyone else in applauding them at the most appropriate moments.

When the first round of performances ended, Zhao Xinyu vaguely heard people sitting near her whispering.

A: I saw the official announcement. It looks like there are three rounds of performances today?

B: That’s right. The second round is just starting. Look, the host is coming up!

A: Then the insider information circulating online must be true! They said my goddess is the headliner for the final round!

B: I don’t know about that. The host hasn’t read the names for this round yet. Sun Qianyi might appear in the third round. You should be happy; the performers appearing later are all heavy hitters!

A: Mhm, mhm. I’m naturally happy that my goddess is the last to appear. But I have to wait a long time!

B: …

A: It’s a good thing this is the venue for the performance. Everyone performing here is amazing!

B: Definitely!

…

Goddess? Zhao Xinyu smiled as she listened. My Sun Qianyi is already this good! Her name wasn’t called in the second round. It seems she really is performing in the last round.

The host stepped down, and next was a pure music performance. The performers slowly rose from below the stage. The person in the black tailcoat must be the conductor for this pure music performance. Many people were seated in front of him, holding violins, cellos, and other instruments, with a separate piano. The conductor’s baton moved slightly downward in his hand, and the music began, officially starting the performance.

An hour later, the second round of performances ended. The host took the stage again to read the list of performers for the next round. Sun Qianyi was the second to appear.

“It will be Qianyi’s performance soon,” Ming Wenxin said when she heard the host call Sun Qianyi’s name.

Zhao Xinyu turned to look at Ming Wenxin and said, “Yes, Mom.”

The first performance in the third round was a song. Listening to the lyrics, arrangement, high notes, and vocal transitions, Zhao Xinyu understood why she was also ranked in the third round. The singing was already outstanding, and the person wrote both the lyrics and the music herself. She needs to remember this person: Zhang Jingyun.

I need to have Qin Langning look into this person when I get back. I can also ask Cai Luo first.

“Please welcome dancer Sun Qianyi to the stage.” The host’s words brought Zhao Xinyu back to reality. She’s coming. The performance is about to begin!

She walked onto the stage from the side door, wearing a dark blue dress like a fairy. Her hair and makeup must have been professionally designed beforehand. Zhao Xinyu was about to focus on watching Sun Qianyi when she was suddenly startled by the voice of the person next to her!

A: Ahhh~ Goddess! Wife! She’s so beautiful! Ooh wow~

…

Goodness! They held back their screams during the previous performances just for this! Wife? What the heck? That’s my wife! When Zhao Xinyu looked back at the stage, she realized she wasn’t the only one screaming. There was a group, no, several groups of people screaming… and one entire section seemed to be Sun Qianyi’s fans. Zhao Xinyu scanned the area and heard Ming Wenxin say, “Sigh, the performance is good, but the audience for each actor is too enthusiastic.”

Zhao Xinyu’s lips curved slightly. This is my first time seeing this. I truly don’t understand! Some said they loved her, loved her, and others just screamed ah, ah, ah, ah… And then there was the audience member next to her, who alternated between calling her ‘wife’ and ‘goddess’. Sigh, it’s fine that they like my Sun Qianyi, but otherwise, I’d seriously suggest they see a doctor. Although, there are quite a lot of people.

Zhao Xinyu watched Sun Qianyi stand at the center of the stage. She bowed to the audience, and the music started. She slightly bent down, then immediately jumped up. Her movements were perfectly synchronized with the rhythm and beat of the music. Zhao Xinyu couldn’t take her eyes off her. She thinks the stage needs a dancer like Sun Qianyi!

After one perfectly executed beat after another, the audience marveled at Sun Qianyi’s performance.

[“I know there are many top dancers today, but I only love Sun Qianyi’s performance. It’s too beautiful! It’s so stunning! Oh my god, is this a performance? This is art! This is true talent! She truly is our country’s famous dancer! Every time I appreciate her dance, I get tears in my eyes!…” ] So many comments. These are all audience reviews for Sun Qianyi. Zhao Xinyu estimates they’ve seen Sun Qianyi perform at least five times!

The dance was spectacular, a blend of modern dance and power movements. The fluidity of her movements was seamless; you couldn’t find a single flaw. The three-minute dance ended quickly. A voice next to her said, “I haven’t seen enough! It just started for me!” She felt the same way.

Zhao Haizhou: “Qianyi, that child dances so well!”

Ming Wenxin: “That’s right. Not one of her movements is simple.”

“Yes. It reminds me of dancing with you when we were young.”

…

Zhao Xinyu looked at the stage and then heard a voice again: “Ahhhh, the host called her over. The host called the goddess over! That’s great! I can look at her for a little longer.”

…

Sun Qianyi looked out at the audience. The host asked her to introduce today’s dance performance. Taking the microphone from the host, she held it, smiled at everyone, and began the introduction. “First of all, thank you very much for inviting me to perform for you today. Today’s pure music piece is…”

“Oh my god, her smile is so beautiful!”

“My goodness, Sun Qianyi looks so beautiful in this dark blue dress, like a fairy descended to Earth! I also have a blue dress, but when I wear it… I look like a fat blue monster… tsk.”

…Pfft. Zhao Xinyu almost laughed out loud.

Sun Qianyi knew where Xinyu was sitting. She looked in that direction, noticed Xinyu, her aunt, and uncle, smiled at them, and nodded slightly.

Then, Zhao Xinyu heard the girl next to her scream again: “Ahhhh, was the goddess looking at me just now?! Ahhh~”

Tsk, she was clearly looking at me! (Zhao Xinyu argued inwardly, feeling disgruntled.)

Handing the microphone back to the host, Sun Qianyi bowed again and bid farewell to the audience. Stepping off the stage, Sun Qianyi took her phone from Su Ke and messaged Zhao Xinyu: Did you like the performance?

The phone in her pocket vibrated. Zhao Xinyu was a little confused. Who would be messaging me at this time? Looking at the stage, she still reached into her pocket and took out her phone. Seeing the name displayed: Wife, she smiled, clicking to read what she sent.

Zhao Xinyu replied: I loved it! It was stunning!

Sun Qianyi read the message from Xinyu and messaged her back: Do you want to come hang out with me?

Zhao Xinyu raised an eyebrow and replied, asking: Can I?

Wife: You can.

Zhao Xinyu: Then I’m coming.

Wife: Good. I’ll have Su Ke come get you.

Zhao Xinyu: Okay.

After waiting a few minutes, Zhao Xinyu saw Su Ke walk over. She told Zhao Haizhou and Ming Wenxin that she was leaving and followed Su Ke out of the audience seating.

Su Ke took Miss Zhao to the CEO’s lounge. CEO Sun should be changing clothes now. “Miss Zhao, CEO Sun should be changing. Please wait a moment.”

“Okay, thank you.”

“You’re welcome. I’ll go out now.”

Zhao Xinyu nodded in response. After Su Ke left the room, she sat down on the sofa. After a few minutes, Sun Qianyi opened the door and walked in from outside. Zhao Xinyu looked at her. “You didn’t take off your makeup?”

“Mhm. Do I look good like this?”

“Yes, very good!” Her naturally fair face, enhanced by the makeup, looked even more sculpted and fairer.

“Are Uncle and Auntie happy to have watched the performance today?”

Thinking about their conversation, Zhao Xinyu smiled and said, “They loved watching the performance, but they were scared by the audience.”

“I see. Most of the audience is quite young and full of energy.”

“Yes.”

“The dress you changed into now is very beautiful.” In the pink dress, Sun Qianyi looked like a tiny, pink fairy.

“Do you like me wearing this?”

“Is this your own outfit?”

“Yes, it’s a costume prepared by the studio’s designer.”

Zhao Xinyu looked at her without speaking. She still hadn’t fully recovered from watching the performance.

Sun Qianyi felt a little shy being stared at by her. What’s wrong with Xinyu? She keeps looking at me. “What’s wrong? Are you tired from watching the performance?”

“…Huh? No…”

“You look very beautiful today too. Did you choose this outfit specifically?” Sun Qianyi tilted her head and looked at her.

“Mhm, you could say that.”

“Rest a bit, then come with me to meet the seniors.”

“Okay~ Shouldn’t you remove your makeup?”

“I won’t remove it for now. Let me lean on your shoulder.” Saying this, Sun Qianyi rested on her shoulder. She was a little tired after the dance. Today’s dance performance had several large and intricate dance movements.

Zhao Xinyu reached for the drink on the coffee table and asked Sun Qianyi, “Is this yours?”

Sun Qianyi nodded, resting on her shoulder, which tickled a little. “Do you want to drink it?”

“Okay~”

Seeing Sun Qianyi not moving, she brought the drink to her lips.

Sun Qianyi looked at the straw, took a few sips of water, then pushed it away.

Noticing her movement, Zhao Xinyu put the drink back on the coffee table.

“Rest well for a few days after this performance. Don’t let Cai Luo accept any more performance invitations.”

“Mhm. I need to help Mom finalize the divorce in the next few days. No dancing.”

“Okay. Then, should I leave the choice of where we live to you?”

“Huh? Why should I decide?”

“I like the places you live in, so I want you to decide on our house.”

Sun Qianyi lifted her head, rubbed her lips against her neck, leaving a lipstick mark. “Okay.”

When she first came in, the room felt quite cool, but after Sun Qianyi leaned in for less than two minutes, she felt very hot. “Is the air conditioner not set high? I feel a little hot.”

Hearing Xinyu’s words, Sun Qianyi stood up, glanced at the remote control, and saw it was set to 26 degrees. Sun Qianyi smiled, put down the remote control, walked up to Xinyu, and looked at her.

Zhao Xinyu looked up at her and asked, dodging the question, “What is the temperature set to?”

Sun Qianyi looked at her with a mischievous smile: “Little Xin, are you feeling very hot?”

“Mh-mhm… Yes!”

“Oh, then let me help you.” Saying this, Sun Qianyi sat on her lap, wrapped her arms around her neck, and kissed her.

“…Will no one come here?!” Otherwise, seeing us so intimate, um, that wouldn’t be good.

Sun Qianyi kissed her earlobe again and whispered softly, “No one should come over.”
