Chapter 304 - One of the Four Young Actresses Liu Fei'er

Ye Fan withdrew his hand and felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward and artificial, but when he looked at Zhao Tianya’s expression, she appeared quite at ease.

She elegantly lifted the red wine, delicately sipped a small mouthful, and then tasted it carefully.

Seeing Zhao Tianya like this, Ye Fan felt he might be overthinking things.

He chuckled self-deprecatingly and also took a sip of the red wine.

“Ye Fan, there’s a concert tomorrow, do you know?” Zhao Tianya placed her wine glass down, leaned back gracefully against the couch, and asked with a light smile.

Ye Fan nodded and replied, “I know.

It’s Shen Yan’s concert, right?”

“Exactly,” Zhao Tianya said as she picked up her red LV bag from beside the couch, took out two tickets from it, sat up straight, and handed them over.

Ye Fan reached out to take the tickets and carefully examined them under the dim light.

They were front-row tickets for Shen Yan’s concert and very good seats at that.

Ye Fan was not surprised that Zhao Tianya could obtain such good tickets, but her intention for him to accompany her to the concert made him feel uneasy.

“How about it?

The seats are nice, right?” Zhao Tianya said with slight pride.

“Come with me tomorrow night.”

Ye Fan forced a smile and handed the tickets back.

Zhao Tianya was slightly taken aback.

She did not reach out to take them and asked, “You don’t want to go?”

“I’m spread too thin,” Ye Fan said with a wry smile.

“I sincerely ask for your understanding.”

Zhao Tianya stared at Ye Fan’s face and eyes for a while, saw the difficulty he was in, and did not press him further.

She spoke with a hint of disappointment, “Alright.

It seems I’ll have to find someone else to accompany me.”

She reached out and took back the two tickets.

Ye Fan could see the disappointment on Zhao Tianya’s pretty face and apologized, “I’m sorry.”

“Giggle, it’s okay,” Zhao Tianya chuckled, “It’s your loss for not going.

I’ll still be watching the concert.”

Then, the two of them put the matter aside and continued drinking and chatting.

It was almost eleven at night when they pushed themselves up from their shoulders and left the Tianfei Night Club.

They then drove away in their separate cars.

The next morning, Ye Fan took advantage of some free time and drove to Hua Hai University to pick up Zeng Jingwei.

Previously, he had used his connections to facilitate Zeng Jingwei’s transfer to Huahai Music College.

Ordinarily, transferring between universities, especially across such significant disciplinary boundaries as from a science and engineering to an arts discipline, would be impossible.

However, these restrictions only applied to ordinary people; Ye Fan simply needed to make a phone call to arrange everything.

After studying music with Professor Yan Yusong for about a month, Zeng Jingwei’s demeanor had noticeably changed, further enhancing her campus goddess aura.

Feeling he had been neglecting Zeng Jingwei recently and hadn’t taken care of her well enough, Ye Fan exceptionally accompanied her to shop for clothes and cosmetics.

Of course, in buying clothes and cosmetics, Ye Fan didn’t choose the more expensive options for Zeng Jingwei, opting for an autumn dress costing around three to four hundred yuan.

It wasn’t that Ye Fan was reluctant to spend money on Zeng Jingwei; he truly treated Zeng Jingwei like a sister and didn’t want to spoil her into a woman who only knew vanity and luxury.

Otherwise, giving her millions of dollars would have been much easier for him than the effort he was currently putting into spending money on her.

After shopping for clothes and cosmetics, Zeng Jingwei was very happy.

During dinner, Zeng Jingwei asked Ye Fan if he wanted to go to Shen Yan’s concert together.

Thanks to Ye Fan’s connection and Yan Yusong’s relationship, she had already been invited by Shen Yan to attend the concert and was sitting in a section reserved for relatives and friends.

Ye Fan didn’t hide anything from Zeng Jingwei and told her that he was going to be a guest singer at Shen Yan’s concert and would perform on stage.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Jingwei was shocked and then exclaimed with admiration and anticipation, “Bro Fan, you are so amazing.

Tonight’s concert must be great, I’m so excited.

Hehe, Bro Fan, should I make you an LED name sign?”

Ye Fan shook his head, “No need.

I’ll be wearing a mask to sing, and I don’t want anyone to recognize me.

So, don’t tell anyone else.”

Zeng Jingwei had heard him sing and was also musically trained, so she had a sensitive ear.

Even if he hadn’t said anything, she could have figured it out.

So, he just told her directly.

“Why?

It’s a rare opportunity to perform at Sister Shen’s concert,” Zeng Jingwei asked, confused and a bit disappointed.

Ye Fan smiled lightly, “No reason.”

After dinner, Ye Fan dropped Zeng Jingwei back at Hua Hai University and then returned to Shengding International Hotel for a brief rest before driving to see Shen Yan.

After all, it was a grand concert requiring meticulous preparation, so he had to arrive early to follow the concert director’s arrangements.

Wearing his mask backstage at the concert venue, it was a hive of activity with band members, dancers, backup singers, makeup artists, and logistics staff all busily preparing.

It was overwhelmingly bustling.

Fortunately, Ye Fan wore the mask of a vagabond prisoner and stood out due to his height, which was different from average people.

As soon as he appeared, the concert assistant director immediately spotted him and hurried over, calling out, “Prisoner Two, you’ve finally arrived.”

“Heh, sorry.

Did I arrive too late and hold up everyone’s work?” Ye Fan recognized Assistant Director Zhang.

Zhang said, “Heh, not at all.

It’s just that you are so mysterious, appearing and disappearing without a trace, we were worried we couldn’t contact you in time.”

“Please come with me.

First, say hello to Yan, then greet Director Xie, and afterwards, we’ll fit your costume.

Since you’re wearing a mask, you can skip the makeup,” Zhang said as he led Ye Fan further inside, “After some preparation, you’ll wait in the dressing room for the director’s instructions.”

A few minutes later, Zhang led Ye Fan to a tightly shut, red-brown wooden door and said, “Yan is inside.

You should greet her first to put her at ease.”

Since Ye Fan was going to perform his own song “Only Love” and also a duet with Shen Yan titled “Singing too deep,” making up two of the roughly twenty songs in the concert, his appearance counted for a significant part of the event, second only to Shen Yan.

Ye Fan nodded, and Zhang had already pressed the doorbell next to the door.

The door quickly opened, but it wasn’t Shen Yan; instead, a tall, beautiful woman with a star-like demeanor stood there.

She looked somewhat familiar, likely seen in a TV drama, but Ye Fan didn’t know who she was.

The woman looked at Ye Fan and asked uncertainly, “Are you Prisoner Two?”

“Yes,” Ye Fan nodded, “You are…?”

Seeing that Ye Fan didn’t recognize Liu Fei’er, one of the renowned Four Young Flowers of film and television and also a close friend of Yan, Zhang was surprised and confused but quickly introduced, “This is Sister Fei, Fei’er, Yan’s good friend Liu Fei’er.”
