Lip Sync

The other party was shocked, then burst out laughing and spread out his hands. "Oh, beautiful lady, I'm really sorry. I just came back from abroad and came today to have a look. I'm a little confused about what's going on, so I hope I can get your understanding."

With the demeanor of an arrogant queen, Tang Xiaoxiao snorted and turned to leave.

Of course, she did not know that after she left, a man snuck in. He lowered his voice and asked in fluent English, "Daniel, why did you come here? Don't you know how much of a stir you would cause if you were discovered by the fans? If that happens, you're going to screw up the whole premiere."

The man with the charming voice spread out his hands innocently. There was a trace of a pitifulness in his words. "I'm sorry. I was just feeling a little lonely in the hotel, so I came out to take a breather."

That man rolled his eyes. "You don't have to come here to take a breather, right?"

The man with the charming voice smiled. "Okay, I admit it. I'm here to look at beautiful women."

"There are more beautiful women abroad." The man reminded 'kindly'.

"But, I still like the beauty of women in China, especially those with personality."

"Okay, Daniel. Don't pretend to be a pervert anymore." The man crossed his arms and sat beside him. "Do you think I don't understand you after being by your side all these years? You don't lust after women or have the courage to do that. You're just pretending in front of me."

The other party chuckled. "So rude."

"It's not that I despise you. As the No. 1 existence, no matter how many women throw themselves to you, you'll throw them over to me. Now, they all think that I'm a lecher…" The man shook his head helplessly. "If there's nothing else, let's go back to the hotel first, if not, it would be bad if you get found out."

"Let's go back later. I want to watch this premiere."

The man was obviously surprised. "I thought you came here on a whim, but you're willing to stay here to watch such a boring premiere? Is there someone you're interested in? Could it be the people on stage? I've only met Director Cao Hao a few times, and it seems like he is an emerging young director with good box office performance and public repute. Otherwise, it's Cheng Mu and Wen Ruoyi. Cheng Mu's acting is still acceptable, but it still needs to be honed. As for Wen Ruoyi… she will stay at this height in her life. Other than them, don't tell me you're interested in that newcomer?"

The other man laughed. "Who is Cheng Mu's manager?"

The man spread out his hands. "We've just returned from abroad, how would I know? But, it seems like his contract with his company is about to expire and he should have changed his manager. Why are you asking me about this suddenly?"

The smile on the other man's face became meaningful. "Cheng Mu is really lucky. His new manager is really beautiful. She's very young and an interesting girl."

The man's lips twitched with disdain. "Are you going to switch me for her too?"

The other party seemed to be looking at the man. "If I change you, my mother will be very happy. At least, she doesn't have to worry about me being gay with you."

The man rolled his eyes with anger. "I don't want to bicker with you, I can never win against you. But you must remember, I won't care about you if you get recognized. I'll let the crazy fans tear you up here… Oh, by the way, maybe the beauty you saw just now might save you, your highness."

The other party ignored his words and tapped his knee thoughtfully. "It seems to be the 70th birthday of the Su family's Old Master next month, right?"

"Mm, that's right," the man replied. "What's the matter?"

"After we return to the capital, tell the old master that I want to celebrate Old Master Su's 70th birthday on behalf of the family."

The man frowned. "It's… not such a good idea, is it? It's not very convenient for you to appear in public."

"It's okay. Don't worry. At this level, they know what to say and what not to say… Besides, I've been silent in the family for so long. It's time to let them know that I'm still the legitimate grandson of this family."

When Tang Xiaoxiao arrived backstage, it was already in a mess. Seeing her coming, Wang Meng breathed out a sigh of relief and waved to her. "Xiaoxiao, you'll be singing in the stage lift under the stage later. It's easier to muddle through like that. Is your condition okay?"

Tang Xiaoxiao made an OK gesture. "I've practiced with Cheng Mu many times, so there should be no problem."

Wang Meng nodded and asked the assistant next to him to bring a bottle of mineral water for Tang Xiaoxiao. "Here, to moisten your throat."

The position of this stage lift was quite special. If it was raised halfway up. Only the place close to the stage could see the situation inside, while the audience below could not see anything. The crew also had this idea in mind as it would allow them to make full use of it so as to avoid any accidents.

Tang Xiaoxiao took a sip of water, put on a pair of sunglasses and pressed down the hat on her head. Then, she went into the stage lift with a microphone and made an OK gesture to the staff behind. The staff then pressed the button and the lift slowly rose halfway up, and stopped when Tang Xiaoxiao was able to see the two hosts on stage.

Seeing Tang Xiaoxiao in the stage lift, the host, Li Jun nodded imperceptibly. Then he joked with Chang Lina. "Lina, do you know that in addition to the cast and plot, what other highlights does this movie have?"

"I really don't know. Li Jun, tell me what else is worth coming to the cinema to watch this movie?" Chang Lina asked, pretending to be puzzled.

Li Jun gave a proud smile. "Then you're asking the right person. Have you heard the theme song of this movie yet?"

Chang Lina shook her head.

"Then, have you heard the theme song sung by the leading actor and actress?" Li Jun said with a wry smile, "Cheng Mu will be singing for the first time in three years. Although the female lead is a newcomer, she is going to show us what is called an ethereal voice!

"Let's invite our male and female leads to come out and sing this song, 'Words of Love'.

With that, Cheng Mu and Yang Shan stepped onto the stage again to the sound of applause. The man was sunny while the woman was pure and lovely. They were like a real couple and were envied by others. What the audience below the stage did not know was that when Cheng Mu and Yang Shan stepped onto the stage, both of them had their eyes fixed on Tang Xiaoxiao, who was in the stage lift. Tang Xiaoxiao was their only hope of the premiere going smoothly.
