Music Festival (1)
"Look guys! MJ, released a short clip of her new song!"
Under the boundless sky
Stars rain upon
Reflecting the sparks in my eyes
As I etch this in my heart
I can fly wherever I want, as free as I am
This dreams sway in the dazzling sky
There are two voices overlapping together. One soft, one strong.
The listener were in a trance listening to the song. In the caption, Mj said that she will be performing tonight in the music festival with this song "Dazzling" together with Mi Yin, the one person she chose to be part of her next project.
Fans commented that they will be there waiting to see her on stage. Partly, they wanted to see her face.
... ... ...
"You really are unpredictable, Min Ju." The man on the other phone laugh.
"Jang Gyeon? Never think that you'd call me."
"How can I let this opportunity pass? The moment Mj appeared I knew it was you."
Min Ju listen to the melodic voice of the person on the other side. This person was her friend named Jang Gyeon. They met in an unexpected way.
Min Ju has a part time job in one of this expensive five star hotel in the past. She was a bartender in one of the hotel's restaurant bar.
She was singing in a low voice while wiping the drinking glasses and listening to the songstress voice.
After the songstress finished singing this man suddenly pointed his slender finger towards her and said, "She should sing! With me!" He looks flushed red but his eyes were serious. His friends are stopping him to cause a scene.
"You're drunk, El Joon." The other one said.
"Let me sang with her then." The dark haired man said and stand up. He had a charismatic aura around him and has a strong stage presence.
The manager who was standing in the side were bewildered. This group were an important guest in the hotel! How could he stop them?!
"Min Ju! Can you sing? Sing with him then." The manager slightly pushed her to the stage.
"Manager, I'm not the songstress."
"Just go with the flow! If you go, I'll double the salary okay. Furthermore, it's your last day today. Make it worth it." The manager gave her a thumbs up.
"Don't take back your words. My salary today is doubled, okay?" Her sharp eye glance to the manager. It was as if she change into another person.
Min Ju walked towards the stage where Jang Gyeon is waiting.
He then said, "I'm sorry. Let me apologize on his behalf. Even though he was drunk he have a very good hearing. We have been listening to your singing instead of the songstress. We're pretty close on the bar counter so don't make excuses." Jang Gyeon let out a light laugh.
"Duet with me?"
"What song?"
"What song do you know?"
"Heyy! Jang Gyeon! Start now!"
"El Joon, calm down. You're drunk."
... ... ...
"I've been wanting to go up on stage with you." Jang Gyeon spoke waking up Min Ju from her thoughts.
"How could I be in the same league as C5? You gotta be kidding me." Min Ju answered.
"Idiot. Don't even think like that. The moment you started singing from that day was the moment we wanted you in our group. But, now. Look at you, gaining a platform for yourself. Good for you, Min Ju." Jang Gyeon smile.
"The group are here in China. We will be watching you on stage. See you soon, Min Ju."
The call ended, ending for Min Ju to stare at her own phone.
"Hey, Min Ju. We'll be ready soon. Wore your best outfit okay?!" He Rue shouted.
"Qing Wu Yao is waiting for us! Don't make him wait!" Followed Qin Wuxie.
"Mi Yin is ready! Min Ju are you done?" Shouted by Lin Zhu on the outside of the door.
"Ah, we should have hired a crew!"
"Min Ju, should we hire a makeup stylist and a designer?"
Mi Yin watched the trio getting so busy with a look of innocence in her face.
"Qing Wu Yao should have hired our crew! He's Min Ju's boyfriend. He should pampered his girlfriend!" Huff He Rue.
Girlfriend? Qin Wuxie and the others look at her.
"Oops, my tongue slip. My brain was advance in thinking. Hehe, the both of them are still not a couple." He Rue laughed abashed.
"Well, they both look good. Should we make a plan?" Mi Yin suddenly jumped into the conversation.
"A trap?"
"A sweet and tasteful trap!"
The four of them has on a naughty expression. All of them has the same thoughts
"Okay, what's the plan." Lin Zhu asked Mi Yin.
Mi Yin urged them to get closer and she whispered to them.
"Qing Wu Yao will definitely cooperate!" She said. "Well, I hope."

"Mom, aren't we going to the music festival? Don't you like Luce? They will be performing tonight." Su Lei said wearing a cute sparkling dress. Her hair was in a neat bun with little streaks of hair hugging her delicate face.
"We still have time, darling. Luckily I bribed a staff to save us some space."
"You're really amazing, mom!" Su Lei hugged her mother.
"Where's your sister? Isnt she coming?"
"No. I guess not." Su Lei rolls her eyes. "Let's go. Sister told me she's not feeling well."
"I guess from overwork. She had a lot of projects coming up on her way."
The two exited the house. Leaving Su Mei in the room silently crying in the corner, a photo clutching on her palm.
"An Yang! Why did you broke me heart? Am I not enough?" She silently muttered.
"Why did you chose her instead of me?"
