The Ex-Girlfriend of a Wealthy Young Man (25)

Just looking at Tang Guo, everyone felt their hearts ache as they listened to her perform.

Yes, it was heartache.

She had once been like a bright, beautiful light, but for some unknown reason, something or someone had hurt her, making her fall into a deep, dark abyss.

Seeing her in such a dark, downtrodden state made countless people feel sad and heartbroken.

It was completely silent. No one said anything or discussed this new change.

Those waiting backstage were all shocked by Tang Guo's appearance— especially Leng Ziyue. He fell into a daze, thinking that he was the one who had made Tang Guo fall into such darkness.

Yes, it was him. It was all his fault. He had caused her to become like this.

Leng Ziyue covered his face with both hands, and he actually had tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Ziyue, what's wrong with you?" Lu Qi, on the other hand, hadn't fallen under the spell of Tang Guo's song. Seeing how Leng Ziyue was acting, she couldn't help but worry. "Are you feeling unwell?"

Leng Ziyue removed his hands from his face and wiped the corners of his eyes. Then, with a bitter smile, he said, "Qiqi, do you think it was wrong of me to treat her that way? I shouldn't have messed with her in the first place, right?"

It was Tang Guo again!

Lu Qi felt suffocated, as if a knot were tightening around her heart. As a woman, she was sure that at that moment, Leng Ziyue had Tang Guo in his heart.

But Leng Ziyue himself didn't know this. He just thought it was guilt.

She was a little amused. Tang Guo had only been a substitute, or rather, a stand-in for her. How could she possibly make Leng Ziyue fall for her?

Never. Right now, Leng Ziyue could only be hers. She would never let Tang Guo have her wish and snatch Leng Ziyue away.

"Ziyue, I don't feel very well. Can you accompany me out for a walk?" Lu Qi certainly looked quite unwell, and this made Leng Ziyue immediately come back to his senses.

"Do you want to go to the hospital to get checked out?"

Seeing how anxious Leng Ziyue was, Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Even if Tang Guo did have a certain place in Leng Ziyue's heart, she was definitely still no match for her.

"No need. I just felt a little depressed just now and wanted to take a walk."

She absolutely couldn't let Leng Ziyue pay too much attention to Tang Guo.

Leng Ziyue and Lu Qi's departure went unnoticed. Not even the backstage host realized they had left. Like everyone else, he was captivated by Tang Guo, who was performing on stage. Out of everyone present, few could say that they had come across someone who could beckon people into her world just by standing on stage and singing.

But Tang Guo could.

When her dark song rang out, the crowd seemed to fall into an abyss, a world of agony and pain. There was a sad expression on everyone's face, revealing their inner turmoil.

The cameraman was trying his best to keep himself under control. He was even using earplugs and glasses in an attempt to prevent himself from getting lost in her song.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, shocked as he filmed the woman in the black dress on the stage. A voice resounded fiercely in his mind: "She'll make it big!"

She definitely would!

Everyone would know who this woman was in the future.

Not only was the music gloomy, but even the lyrics were dark, and the melody was so overwhelmingly depressing that it made everyone listening to it feel extremely suffocated.

This was a song that they had never heard before. Even though it was extremely unbearable to listen to it, they still found that they couldn't help but listen. They even wished that they could get closer to her so they could hear the song more clearly.

They couldn't stop themselves from falling deeper and deeper. If the woman in the black dress on stage was leading them into darkness, then they were entirely willing to follow her.

Just as the depression and agony in everyone's hearts reached a peak, and even they themselves believed that they were going to fall for eternity and die once and for all, the stage lights suddenly dimmed.

Everything became pitch-black, and almost everyone was in a daze, as if they had lost all sense of reality.

Just as they thought the world was going to be destroyed, a ray of white light fell on the stage and illuminated a slender figure.
