Chapter 391 - Overwhelmed With Happiness
"Nevertheless, I will come back soon. I heard that Chairman Li's birthday party is in a week. Our graduation is in three days so, I promise to come back in time for the party," Jingxian added in a meek tone.
"Jingxian, there is no need to feel bad about being unable to come. I am sure Mi Er will feel very happy to know about your intentions. And, I am looking forward to having you back home. I missed the time where you were a little wild kitten," Yang Zi said, patting Jingxian on the shoulder.
"Extend my greetings to Auntie and don't forget to express my regret of not being able to meet her. Tell her that Zi Er looks forward to having her back home," Yang Zi said as she embraced Jingxian.
"Stay safe until we meet again," Jingxian replied emotionally. She knew that they won't have ample time to exchange their goodbyes when they get to the airport.
After she finished exchanging farewell messages with Jingxian, Yang Zi addressed her team. They all left for the airport afterwards. In the airport, Jingxian only left the airport after confirming that Yang Zi and the others have boarded the plane.
The journey for Yang Zi seemed like it was taking forever. She kept on staring at her wristwatch at every interval to make sure that they were not late for the concert.
Although some of them slept throughout the long trip, Yang Zi did not have a wink of sleep. She was too anxious to sleep.
When the plane finally landed at their destination. Everyone scrambled to look for a taxi or even a private car since they were almost late for the concert.
"Zi Er, I asked some of my subordinates here to prepare a car for our arrival, would you mind coming in my car?" Yifeng asked politely when it was only remaining Yang Zi who couldn't board a cab.
"Do I have a choice?" Yang Zi fired back sharply, acting like she was forced to accept his offer.
"Come let's go. My baby must be feeling so nervous right now," Yang Zi said, as she quickly entered the white car parked in front of them. Yifeng joined her in the car afterwards.
With the way the driver drove, it was very obvious that he was very familiar with the layout of the City. A journey that should have taken 45 minutes, only took thirty minutes.
The instant the car halted in front of the building which served as the event venue, Yang Zi hurriedly entered the building without waiting for Yifeng.
She ran to a large hall after being directed by a kind receptionist. The moment Yang Zi entered the vast hall filled by so many people, she heaved a sigh of relief when she realized that Yang Mi standing on the stage hadn't started yet.
The nervous Yang Mi on seeing her mum standing at the end of the hall, smiled broadly.
I knew that my mum will definitely come!
Yang Mi thought, as she immediately began her performance. Because of how fast Yifeng's driver was, they were the first to arrive at the location of the event. The rest only entered the hall after Yang Mi began playing.
Yang Mi played the violin just like she had practised. Every ounce of her emotions was embedded in every string she played. Somewhere in the hall, a tall handsome boy sat with his eyes closed. He immersed himself in every melody she played. At the end of her heartfelt and amazing performance, everyone in the hall which comprised mainly adults gave little Mi Er a standing ovation.
Yang Mi bowed and afterwards left the stage. While the scores were being collated and analysed, all the contestants waited backstage for the final results. When results were finally announced, everyone in the hall said that Yang Mi deserved the award. She played exceptionally well. Nobody could deny that fact.
"Congratulations, little Sis. You have made big bro proud once again," Yang Mi was stunned, when she saw Li Chen came out of the crowd, came on stage and gave her flowers. He embraced the surprised girl tightly. Yang Zi wanted to be the first to give Yang Mi flowers, but before she could get to the stage, Li Chen beat her to it.
After the taking of pictures on stage, Yang Mi, Li Chen and Yang Zi went backstage to meet the others who were eagerly waiting for them.
Seeing everyone there, Yang Mi felt so overwhelmed.
"Stop crying, naughty baby or you are gonna ruin your makeup," Wen Min scolded playfully.
"I am so happy. I feel like I could die from over happiness," Yang Mi said, with a huge sense of humour as she placed her left hand on her pouring chest. Everyone chuckled when they saw how dramatic the little girl was.
After they chatted, they all went to take pictures with the award Yang Mi won. Yang Zi allowed Yang Mi to do whatever she wanted until they all lounged at a hotel.
While the adults were talking in the night, Yang Mi and Li Chen slipped out of the room. They both went to stay in the room he and Yifeng shared.
"Chen Chen, do you know what wish I made when I was on stage before my mum arrived?" Yang Mi, sitting beside Li Chen on the grey couch asked as she stared into his eyes.
"Tell me, maybe I will be able to help you fulfil your wish," Chen said, staring back at her.
"I had wished that all those I love will be present at the concert," Yang Mi revealed, in a calm tone.
"With my mum and Brother Feng not on good terms, I knew that it was impossible for my wish to come true. I also knew that godmother, godfather and the others were very busy and that the possibility for them to come was slim. Despite being very aware of all these facts, I still stubbornly made that wish....," Yang Mi trailed, her gaze not leaving Chen's face for a split second.
