Chapter 676: Let’s Do That First....
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The boss’s call came while they were on the road.
Even though the boss was confused and anxious, he still tried his best to speak to Master Wu in a gentle manner.
“Teacher, our tickets sold out long ago. Everyone has been waiting eagerly for you, so we can’t change the timing tomorrow so easily. If your situation is not too urgent, how about you leave a day later?”
This was the first time this had happened, as Master Wu had been very
cooperative after coming to the orchestra. This time, he did not know what was so urgent that he had to leave in such a hurry.
The boss did not dare to provoke him. After all, he was the group’s golden signboard.
When Master Wu heard that, he simply replied, “Postpone the performance. They can keep the ticket for my solo concert next time. I’m in a hurry, so let’s do that first.’
The boss was frozen in shock as he looked at his phone.
This was an amazing turn of events. It had been many years since Master Wu had held a solo concert. Everyone had bought these tickets just to watch his performance; if they were to learn that the concert had been changed to a solo concert… not to mention delaying it a little, even if it was postponed for months and the price was increased, the audience would probably still be more than happy to accommodate.
What on earth was going on for Master Wu to do such a thing!?
Now, the boss had become completely curious. While making a call to arrange things, he also wanted to find out what had happened backstage.
Lu Ning, who was far away in A City, did not know that ‘danger’ was approaching.
She fell asleep very late last night. When she woke up, it was already afternoon.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Huo Jinyan standing by the bed.
She was stunned.
“Why are you back already?”
Huo Jinyan looked at her and smiled. He raised his hand to tidy her hair.
“Well.’
He did not say much and simply responded with a single word.
Lu Ning was stunned and asked in confusion, “Well?”
Huo Jinyan could not help but chuckle when he saw her imitating him.
Lu Ning frowned. “Why didn’t you stay with your grandfather for at least a few days?”
Huo Jinyan sat down and put something on her wrist. “Grandpa asked me to come back.”
Lu Ning turned her head to look. There was a peachwood bracelet on her wrist; it looked heavy, but also very beautiful.
Huo Jinyan looked up at her. “It’s a present for you from Grandpa.”
He then took out something and placed it in her palm. “This too.” It was a small wooden card, strung up with some red string.
Stunned, Lu Ning looked at Huo Jinyan. “Lightning- struck wood?”
Huo Jinyan nodded.
Lu Ning could not help but laugh.
This was all to ward off evil. He was so afraid that something would happen to her again.
Lu Ning looked at the wooden card in her hand and clenched it tightly.
“Alright, thank your Grandpa for me.”
Then, she raised her other hand and removed the large bracelet from her wrist. “This is for you, a New Year’s gift.”
Huo Jinyan looked at her in surprise and smiled helplessly.
“l have too much.”
Lu Ning added, afraid that Huo Jinyan would not take it back, so Lu Ning simply said that it was a New Year’s gift.
“You can’t reject a New Year’s gift.”
Hearing her say this, Huo Jinyan had no choice but to put it back on his hand.
Lu Ning looked at him and smiled. “Let’s have a safe and peaceful year.”
Huo Jinyan approached her with a smile and touched her forehead. “Mm, you have to get better quickly.”
Huo Jinyan looked up at the sky outside.
“It’s snowing. Want to go take a look?” Lu Ning turned to look out of the window. “Really?”
She had just woken up and did not know.
Huo Jinyan looked at her excited expression and nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’ll bring you to see it..”
