Yosef remained silent, but his steps quickened beneath him.
He headed towards the backstage resting area.
Following the signs for a while, he suddenly heard a clear burst of laughter.
It was hearty and melodious, like wind chimes being struck under the eaves.
He instinctively halted, standing before a partially closed door.
Through the gap, he peered inside.
In the room, two individuals stood.
One of them was the girl who had just gone up to receive an award, and the other...
When he caught sight of her face, Yosef's pupils contracted for a moment.
Could it really be her?!
Diana?!
Could it be that the "Red Rose" who had just performed on stage was actually...
His gaze darkened, just as he was about to push the door open, he suddenly saw Diana reach out and remove her windbreaker.
Revealing a vibrant, crimson long dress underneath.
The dress, as bright as blood, clung to he
On the roadside, several luxury cars were already waiting.Beside the foremost black Maybach, Natalie stood there in a black leather jacket and pants, her brows lowered.Upon hearing footsteps, she slowly lifted her head, meeting Yosef's gaze, revealing a hint of nervousness."Sir."Yosef's azure-like eyes glanced at her briefly, then turned his gaze away."Sir..."Natalie stood in his path, a touch of guilt in her eyes. "I'm sorry, I couldn't handle this matter and caused you to lose the gold mine. Please punish me!""Punish?"Yosef's voice was indifferent. "You haven't done anything wrong, so why would there be a punishment?"At his words, a gleam appeared in Natalie's enchanting eyes.Then, his cold voice reached her ears again. "It's just a matter of being outmatched."A shadow passed over Natalie's eyes, feeling as if her cheeks had been slapped, preventing her from lifting her head.Being outma
John slid the item into her mouth, and instantly, a delicate sweetness filled the space between her lips and teeth. Diana was a bit puzzled. "What is this?" "Digestive tablet." Hearing this, Diana gave a goofy smile. "It actually tastes pretty good." Onlookers: ... Perfect. While feeding Diana the digestive tablet, they also sneaked in a mouthful of romance drama. "Ahem... Big sis, it seems like we still have plenty of time today, and everyone's here. How about we have a good celebration tonight to commemorate your victory!" Frank, rising from his seat, proposed. "A celebration?" "Yes!" Excitement gleamed in Frank's eyes. "I've already reserved a private room. Let's all go sing some karaoke together!" After the words were out, the expected response didn't come. The group looked at him, expressions complex, and remained in silence. Frank: ??? What's up with this eerie atmosphere...
Frank's mouth twitched uncontrollably. "What's with the attempt at handsomeness while singing nursery rhymes!" "Ahem~ Who would've thought that Andrew, deep down, still had this much... childlike innocence." Diana concealed her complex emotions and then stood up. "Alright, it's my turn to sing now!" She took the microphone from Andrew's hand, about to start singing when suddenly Colin, who had been sitting quietly on the side, stood up and snatched the microphone from her hand. Diana: ??? "Colin?" Diana looked puzzled, "You want to sing too?" What's going on today? Wasn't it always just Ben who enjoyed singing at home? Why are Andrew and Colin suddenly so enthusiastic today? Facing Diana's questioning gaze, Colin hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Yeah." Leah leaned over and twisted Diana's arm. "Let go, and let Colin sing..." Diana obediently released her grip.
Andrew: ... "Diana, you've got me wrong there. Am I the type to say one thing and mean another?" With that, Andrew adjusted his posture and leaned against the edge of the couch. "What you sing, I like to hear." Diana was quite content. She straightened up, sat on the nearby couch, and brought the microphone to her lips. Just then, a slender finger reached over from the side and clasped her hand. Diana turned around and saw John holding onto her microphone, his handsome face revealing a hint of contemplation in his gaze. "No way, you're even trying to snatch the microphone from me?" Diana exclaimed. What's going on today? Why is everyone suddenly in the mood for singing? But if it's John singing... She was actually quite looking forward to it! "No." John parted his thin lips, his voice calm as he said, "I want to tell you, when you sing, it's always the best." Diana:... Ser
"You're a young girl, it's dangerous to be alone outside. Be a good girl and come back home with your brothers, okay?" Diana tilted her head, her voice mischievous, "Danger is just danger... There's a saying, 'Even if a peony dies under the moon, it dies as a romantic ghost.' Well, I'm game!" Saying this, she looked up, her watery eyes fixed on John's sculpted face, an expression of deep fascination in them. This man, he's just too good-looking! He must cost a pretty penny... She held onto John's lean waist tightly, "Handsome, take me in, won't you? To be honest, I have this immature love affair and I want to talk to you about it..." Andrew's heart shattered like broken glass. "Diana, don't you love your brother anymore?" Diana turned around, "If you keep standing in the way of me being with my lovely guy here, then yes, I won't love you anymore!" Andrew: ... Indeed, love had vanished. John bent
Leah lay in the back, pouting her lips in a discontented manner. "You're actually not letting me sit next to you? I'm so good-looking, with such long legs, and you're still rejecting me..." She sprawled out at the back, showing off her long white legs. "I knew it would be like this... Whatever, I'm used to it. My skin is thick anyway. I can always find another chance in the future..." She rambled on by herself. Colin held the steering wheel, his features calm and impassive. Suddenly, from the back, Leah extended her fair fingers, placing them gently on his shoulder. "Why aren't you talking? Do you dislike me now?" "No." "Well, then sing for me." Colin remained silent. In an instant, Leah felt deeply aggrieved. She leaned her head against the back of the driver's seat, looking utterly dejected. "If you don't sing, I'm going to make a scene... I can be really fierce when I'm upset. I'm about to cry
Seeing that she seemed a bit unsteady, John reached out and guided her to his side. "I'll turn on the water for you." "Shh~" Diana turned around, placing her finger on his lips, and raised an eyebrow teasingly. "No need, you go wait on the bed. I'll be out in a bit, be patient~" She acted like a seasoned flirt, then closed the bathroom door with her hand. Not long after, the sound of water could be heard from inside. John sat on the bed outside, feeling a bit restless as he tossed his shirt aside and moved to the couch, waiting for a while. Once he had cooled down, Diana still hadn't emerged. Could something be wrong? With a hint of worry, he walked up to the bathroom door and gave it a knock. But there was no response. "Hey, little girl?" A sense of concern swept over John, and he pushed the door suddenly, surprised to find it unlocked. A mist of water greeted him as he stood in the door
Diana steadied her forehead and stepped into the bathroom, thoroughly enjoying the refreshing ritual. When she returned to the bedside after changing out of her pajamas, she started to get dressed. Just as she was about to slip out of her clothes, a faint click echoed behind her. Then, the door swung open. Startled, she swiftly turned around to find a tall and commanding figure standing in the doorway. John was dressed in a dark shirt paired with light-colored casual pants. With his tall and long-legged figure, he exuded an air of elegance that was unmatched. His exceptionally handsome face revealed a faint trace of astonishment due to the scene before him. The two of them stared at each other in a state of shock for a while. Then, Diana suddenly snapped back to her senses. "What the heck?!" Startled, she blurted out a curse, swiftly throwing the covers aside and diving into the warmth of the sheets. "John, you did't le
