As time counted down day by day, Mike was secretly preparing everything for her performance without Rafas knowing. He specifically set up a stage at the banquet hall for her, and although Rafas had some doubts, Mike fabricated a story saying it was mainly to showcase Monica's status, intending to elevate their standing.
Rafas thought this was not a bad idea and let him arrange it. He would also need to go on stage to speak, and if it were just a flat ground, it wouldn't quite match his identity.
As the saying goes, "Those who stand high see far," and this saying is indeed true!
The stage at the venue was specially built for Yan Wushuang, sturdy and spacious, with solid beams overhead that would allow her to dance gracefully in front of everyone. He even found several people to prepare delicate petals and foam according to her instructions, creating a stunning visual effect!
"Wushuang, how are you preparing? Tomorrow night will be the moment that witnesses all your hard work this month." Mina was excited for her, praying that nothing would go wrong.
"Don't worry, I am well prepared. Mike said everything at the venue is arranged for me, and they will prepare a private dressing room just for me. You have to come help me find someone to do my makeup!" She was worried about this; she had never worn makeup and didn't know how to dress herself up.
"Don't worry, I've already contacted them. They are all my most capable assistants from before. I heard that this time it's my student's performance, and they are all eager to help. I guarantee they will make you look more beautiful than the goddess Chang'e in the sky!" She pulled her over to the mirror for a comparison. With her natural beauty, just a little makeup would make her outshine everyone.
Yan Wushuang looked at herself in the mirror, breathing nervously. Tomorrow night, she would not disappoint anyone.
She secretly called Ieyako, asking Yezi to definitely come watch her dance tomorrow night. Yezi widened her eyes; she was being too bold! Wasn't she afraid that man would get angry?
But she insisted that no matter what happened, she had to take this gamble; if she didn't succeed, she would perish!
After hanging up the phone, Yezi searched everywhere for Faisal, pleading with him sweetly to take her to Monica's anniversary celebration tomorrow night.
Faisal was puzzled; what was going on with her? Why was she suddenly making such a request? And how did she know that tomorrow night was Monica's anniversary?
No matter how he asked, the girl refused to reveal the reason. She insisted he take her along and even threatened him that if he didn't take her, she would ignore him for life.
Faisal was curious about what scheme she was plotting. Since she wanted to go, fine; no problem. But tonight she had to obediently serve him. If he was pleased, he would take her along. So all night long, Yezi worked hard, gritting her teeth not to faint from exhaustion while waiting for his words.
Heaven rewards those who are diligent; Faisal finally agreed. Early in the morning, he had her prepare a formal dress while she secretly hid in her room making phone calls!
When Faisal checked the number on the other end of the line, he found it led to Lefas' castle. It seemed that her mysterious behavior involved talking with Yan Wushuang. After all, besides Yan Wushuang, who else could she be so close with?
As dusk fell gradually, Rafas had dinner with Yan Wushuang at home before changing his clothes and heading out. Before leaving, he specifically reminded her to stay home and wait for him; he would return after midnight sharp.
Wushuang smiled brightly in response and eagerly kissed his cheek, wishing he would leave quickly so she could prepare!
Rafas felt like something was going to happen today. He was reading a book, but he didn't have a bad premonition; instead, he was eagerly hoping for something to occur. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her passionately at the door for a long time before reluctantly letting her go, whispering in her ear, "My little fairy, remember to wait for me tonight!"
"Stop it! Hurry up and go, don't be late!" Yan Wushuang said, blushing as she pushed him to leave quickly.
Ten minutes after he left, Mike arranged for four bodyguards to escort her slowly to the hotel venue. Of course, they couldn't enter through the front door. Wearing a hat and sunglasses, she arrived safely at the private dressing room specially prepared for her, guided by the bodyguards and hotel staff.
Yezi had also dressed up carefully for the night. Like Wushuang, she wasn't the type of mature and voluptuous woman, so Faisal had prepared a light yellow dress for her. To prevent any wardrobe malfunctions, he specifically chose a one-shoulder design. The perfect cut showcased her exquisite figure beautifully, and the dress was adorned with eighteen small diamonds, showing Faisal's thoughtfulness.
It was challenging to be a man; he had to ensure she looked stunning while preventing her from being too revealing.
When Ieyako walked into the venue with the tall and handsome Faisal, it instantly caused a stir. The men eyed the sexy and charming Yezi with interest, eager to approach her and find out what she was worth. They assumed she was a socialite or some minor celebrity since they mostly recognized the well-known ladies in their circle, but her beautiful face was definitely a first for them!
The women’s attention was naturally on Faisal. However, everyone in the circle knew his cold and unfeeling demeanor; he never fell for the usual tricks women used to attract men. Thus, those who tried to flirt with him returned disappointed.
"I didn't expect you to bring your little kitty tonight; it's quite rare!" Rafas said, holding a glass of red wine as he mingled among the guests. Upon seeing this stunning sight before him, he couldn't help but comment.
"My little kitty isn't a Canary; she shouldn't be kept in a cage but should come out more often. Besides, tonight is Monica's five-year anniversary celebration; how could we miss it?" The two men teased each other while Yezi's mind wandered as she searched for Wushuang. Where could she be?
Mina also attended in style that night. She spotted Wushuang's good friend—the girl in the light yellow dress—because the man beside her was none other than Rafas's friend, Faisal, one of Monica's shareholders! "Of course, outsiders like them wouldn't know about Solomon's identity."
She slowly approached and smiled as she interrupted the two men's conversation: "Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Faisal; could you spare this young lady for a few minutes?"
Faisal didn't recognize Mina and looked at her with confusion: "Who are you?"
"Let me explain. This is the famous dancer, Ms. Mina; she's currently Wushuang's dance teacher. I think she's taken an interest in your little kitty and wants to take on a student!" Rafas joked. During this time, his little fairy had indeed been very happy and often pulled him to watch her dance; he owed that credit to the woman before him.
"So you're Mina! I've heard so much about you from Wushuang! I'm here specifically to find you!" Before Faisal could respond, Yezi spoke up first, releasing his arm and smiling as she followed Mina.
Faisal stood there stunned, looking at Rafas, curiously asking: "Is your Canary like this now?"
"Pretty much! Men should be generous; don't fuss over one woman wanting to learn dance. In the end, who benefits? It's still us!" Rafas playfully punched him on the chest with an amused glint in his eyes—didn't he understand that?
Watching Yezi chat with that woman made him realize that her purpose today was likely this. Perhaps Yan Wushuang had told her that this dance teacher would be coming tonight, which is why she insisted on coming along. After thinking about it, learning something wouldn't be bad; just as Lefas said, they would ultimately benefit!
The number of guests in the banquet hall was increasing, and Wushuang was busy preparing in the makeup room. The makeup artist that Mina had found for her was carefully creating her look for the evening.
It was the first time she had seen such a beautiful woman, with flawless skin, delicate features, clear eyes, and attractive, full lips. The artist skillfully wielded her tools, and before long, a stunning ethereal beauty appeared in the mirror.
She was so breathtakingly beautiful that even the makeup artist, who had crafted this exquisite look, could hardly believe it was her own work. This woman could only be described as perfect; there were no flaws to be found.
“Miss Wushuang, are you satisfied with your makeup today?” The makeup artist stood behind her, still immersed in her beauty.
Yan Wushuang held her breath as she gazed at herself in the mirror. She could hardly believe it was her reflection. With a smile, it was clear she was very pleased with her entire look for the day.
Seeing her smile made the makeup artist happy as well. Just then, someone knocked on the door of the makeup room. Mina had brought Yezi along while Faisal was chatting with someone else, and they slipped into the backstage makeup room.
“Wow… Wushuang, you look so beautiful today! If I weren't seeing you up close, I would hardly believe this is you!” Yezi exclaimed, her mouth agape as she stepped forward to take Wushuang's hand, truly feeling that this breathtaking woman was indeed her familiar Yan Wushuang.
“See? Even Yezi thinks so. I guess I don’t need to say anything more. Mr. Lei will be even more amazed when he sees you and will definitely fulfill your wishes!” Mina's smile was wide; Wushuang was someone she had personally guided. Whether she succeeded today would reflect Mina's hopes for Wushuang's future. Yan Wushuang shyly lowered her head, wondering what Lefas would think when he saw her later. Would he like her outfit today?
“Mina, how’s it looking outside? How much longer until my performance?” Wushuang thought nervously, hoping she wouldn’t make any mistakes.
Checking the time, Mina confidently looked at the beautiful Wushuang and said, “It’s only 7:30 now; tonight’s event starts at 8:00. After Mr. Lei finishes his speech on stage, it will be your turn to perform. I estimate there are still about forty minutes left. Don’t be nervous and don’t put pressure on yourself. Yezi and I will be watching you from a prominent spot in the audience. If you feel anxious, just look our way and think about how you usually dance!”
Wushuang nodded and took deep breaths. The women in the makeup room gathered around to cheer for Wushuang as she prepared to take the stage.
