My Evil Genius Wife

Chapter 302 - The Jade Awards (III)



The band on the stage was playing captivating, dark music. The music of electric guitar and drum was getting intense as they were chasing towards the climax. 

The music was getting loud and tense with every passing moment. 

Just like the music, the atmosphere in the stadium was getting tense as well. All the artists were wearing worried expressions and were discussing if something was wrong. 

  Everyone was confused and worried about the girls who were still not on the stage. Every performance has a limited time and they need to finish their performance in the same fixed time since the camera will be shifted to the hosts afterward to announce the awards. 

The girls haven't come out yet and if this continues, then they will mess up their performance a big time. 

Is this a broadcast accident? If it is, then it's not a small mistake. Everyone wondered. 

However, Rin Rin was elated to see The Knights falling from the top position. 

"Hah, Now everyone will know how overrated they are. They're nothing but a bunch of losers," she murmured under her breath and sipped the water through the straw from the bottle.

~Wooo OOOO….Yeahhhh~ 

When the music reached its climax, the band stopped playing. The stadium fell into ghostly stillness, leaving everyone perplexed. 

As everyone's gaze was fixated on the stage and they were trying to figure out what's going on, a loud and powerful voice resonated in the arena. 

Everyone was startled to hear the powerful, high note which woke everyone from their daze. While the artists were confused about the voice, the fans were joyous and started to scream in happiness. 

" It's Song Ai. Song Ai!!! But where is she?" Fans started to look for her on the stage. They could recognize her voice. But...Where is she?

People were looking here and there in the dark. Their eyes roamed around the large arena when everyone heard a commotion from the fan's standing area. 

The artists were confused, wondering what's going on in the back. Rin Rin was also curious about what's happening. When she turned around to see towards the fan's standing area, a deep frown appeared on her face. 

" What the hell are they doing?" She was confused and baffled to see Song Ai standing among the fans, wearing a strapless, sleeveless royal black dress with black shorts underneath that looked like a pair. The golden belt on the waist and the dramatic rose jewelry was adorning her neck and the dress. The accessories were the highlight of her look. 

Everyone was awed by Song Ai's elegant and royal look. The combination of black and golden was not only going with their theme but also with their name as well. 

She was standing under the white spotlight and was shining like a bright star. She smirked at the camera that was facing her and raised her eyebrows, making everyone scream when her face was zoomed in on the large screens. 

She turned to her fans who were shocked and were on the verge of crying to see her standing between them. 

She was with them all along and they didn't even notice. They were too busy looking at the stage that they didn't realize when she came and took her position. 

The band started playing the music again and the beat this time became more lively and powerful. Just like Song Ai, other members also stand up from the crowd, hitting their signature powerful yet melodious notes. 

Rather than starting from the stage, they started from the fan's standing area and made their way to the stage while singing their song. They didn't forget to handshake with their fans as they walked out of the standing area. 

[ EVERYBODY, ARE YOU READY??] Lai Yi shouted on the mic to hype up the crowd, in response the crowd also shouted back. 

Xu Nuan, who was standing backstage, chuckled to see Lai Yi hyping the crowd. She is the quietest member of the group but she becomes fire on the stage. 

When they were planning what to do to make the performance even more unique and rocking, Xu Nuan was the one who suggested starting the performance from the fan's standing area and then moving to the stage. This way they will not only be able to cover the large area but also be able to greet the fans who supported them. 

Since they don't have any official fandom name and lightstick yet, it will be a good way to show their gratitude to them. Also, the girls started from the bottom, so it was also a good way to show their journey which started at the bottom and was going higher and higher. 

The girls also liked her idea and were excited to do this with their fans. That's why they were even more nervous earlier. 

They were not afraid of making mistakes on the stage but they didn't want to let down their fans who supported them and brought them to this position.

The girls were successful in showcasing their powerful and melodious vocals to everyone. Their charismatic and badass expressions were cherry on the top. 

~ Who are we, Who are we~ The girls took out their mics from the mic stand and went forward on the stage. 

They stopped at the edge of the stage and looked at everyone with their confident, lethal gaze, and sang in harmony. 

We're the GUARDIANS, We're the SAVIORS,

WE'RE THE KNIGHTS!!~

The girls shouted the last line and ended their performance by raising their hands high up in the sky. As they strike their ending pose, the firecrackers on the corner of the stage went off, brightening the stage with its light. 

As the performance ended, there was a long silence for a moment. However, when everyone realized that it finally ended, they woke up from their daze and loud applause could be heard in the arena. 

Everyone was shocked and surprised to see an amazing performance by a rookie group. They're just a few months old and yet they captivated everyone with their stage presence and breathtaking mellow voice. 

They were moving and dancing during the performance yet their voices were so stable even though they were singing live. Even the veteran artists were surprised and proud to see the juniors artists doing well. 

While everyone was happy and were clapping, Rin Rin was glowering in anger. They performed better than she had expected and seeing everyone shouting their name made her angrier. 

" Argh….Xu Nuan, I will not let you go away with this." she gritted her teeth. They were the only ones who were supposed to debut this year, if not for Xu Nuan, they would have been the only group from shining bright. 

And if not for The Knights, they could have been the one on the stage right now. It was because of them that their popularity has been divided between them. 

Everyone is comparing both groups who were launched by the same company and The Knights are getting more points because of that.

After the performance ended, the fans of the knights were in a frenzy and were emotional to be respected this way. Since The Knights are only a few months old, they don't have their official lightstick and fandom name yet. That's why their fandom is looked upon by other fans who were showing off their merches and lightsticks. 

But the fans of The Knights were not behind in any way to support the girls. They used phones' flashlights to support the girls and were holding handmade banners for them. Some even brought handmade paintings and sketches in support of the girls.

The loud noises were resonating in the arena, giving goosebumps to everyone. All the other idols and artists were surprised to see this many fans cheering for 'The Knights'.

While the fans of 'The Knights' were enjoying and cheering for the girls, the other fans from other fandoms were looking at them in envy. It was the first time that any group started the award ceremony performances from the fan's standing area rather than the stage or the artist's sitting area. 

They not only started the performances from between them, but they also shook hands with them and sang along with them. How lucky they are!!

When the girls returned backstage, they were already in tears. It was their first time performing in front of so many people and it surprisingly went well. They were still shivering and couldn't forget the loud applause and the fans cheering.

Xu Nuan was also getting emotional seeing the girls bawling their eyes out. She handed them towels to wipe their sweat and water bottle. She patted their shoulders, " Why are you bawling your eyes out? You will all ruin your makeup."

Song Ai looked at her while sobbing and hugged her tightly, " I am so happy. Xu Nuan, did you hear all the cheering? They're cheering for us." she started to sob hard after saying this. 

They don't care about any award. They don't care about any rankings, however, the cheerings of the fans and their happy faces are enough to light up their mood. 

All they wanted was to prove to everyone that they're not useless. It was almost a year ago that they were about to be kicked out of the company and had no future ahead. 

However, Xu Nuan's entry in their life, not only gave them another chance to prove themselves but also helped them to grow as an artist. Xu Nuan allowed them to come up with their ideas and helped them to polish those ideas and because of that, they all managed to come this far. 

Xu Nuan patted her back and let her cry for a while. Who can stop the crybabies from crying? 

" Now if you're done crying, let's go to the green room. The awards are going to be announced soon. Do you want to go on a stage looking like this?" she said while patting Song Ai's back who was still hugging her, and also patted Sun Ya's shoulder who was crying next to her.
