At the same time, Fangzheng had also arrived at the stage and was communicating with the staff in charge of the Magical Girl Festival.
"There aren't many nominees at the moment. You have to make good use of the time difference. Don't let the audience feel that the show is taking too long. Make sure not to overshadow the main focus by stirring up the atmosphere. Is this the band you found?"
"Yes, President."
Faced with Fangzheng's question, one of the staff members hurriedly replied. Fangzheng nodded and looked at the four girls in front of him. Hmm, unfortunately, they were not from Soft Note.
"They are Icy.
Tail, a group with a little bit of fame at the moment. They have a certain reputation in the circle, and they're pretty good. I think a purely female band would be more eye-catching.... "
"Well, you're not wrong to think so."
Fangzheng nodded to the four girls, who hurriedly and nervously bowed in return. The purple-haired girl in the lead stepped forward and extended her hand to Fangzheng.
"Hello, I'm Icy.
I'm the lead singer of Tail, Mikiyo Mikiyo.... "
"Hello."
Fangzheng shook her hand. He felt that the purple-haired girl looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.... Forget it, it doesn't matter, does it?
"I'm looking forward to your performance."
"Don't worry, Mr. Fangzheng, we'll make sure that the performance is a success...."
Hearing this, Mikiyo Mikiyo breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. However, before she could finish her words, a shout suddenly came from not far away. Then, a person suddenly barged in between Fangzheng and Mikiyo Mikiyo, separating them.
"Get out of my way! Get out of my way! "
"Alan?"
Mikiyo Mikiyo was shocked to see An Yilun in front of her. An Yilun glared at Fangzheng fiercely. An Yilun had just gone out to sea with Porajima but failed, so he had to come back to watch Mikiyo Mikiyo's rehearsal. But what An Yilun did not expect was that he actually saw that damn man chatting with Mikiyo!
Seeing this scene, An Yilun's brain instantly exploded with a "boom".
This damned man, was he going to do something to Michi again?
I won't let you have your way!
Thinking of this, An Yilun's body began to move. He directly rushed to the booth, knocked away the staff, and stood in front of Fangzheng, glaring at him fiercely. In An Yilun's opinion, this man must be using some flowery words to deceive Michirou. He must stop him and not let him succeed!
"Who are you?"
Fangzheng raised a brow when he saw the fat otaku panting as he walked.
"I, I am …"
"Forget it, I'm not interested in who you are. Who allowed you to go on the stage so casually? Chase him away."
Fangzheng waved his hand. Soon, a few security guards came up to restrain An Yilun and pulled him off the stage. An Yilun was still struggling, glaring at Fangzheng and shouting.
"You bastard, if you dare lay a hand on Michirou, I'll definitely kill you! You bastard …! "
In the face of An Yilun's roar, Fangzheng did not say a word. He just watched with his hands behind his back as An Yilun was also dragged off the stage by the security guards. He then snorted coldly and looked at Mikiyo Mikiyo.
"Do you know that man?"
"This … I'm really sorry, Mr. Fangzheng. He's my cousin … I'm really sorry!"
Having said that, Mikiyo Mikiyo gave a 90-degree bow to Fangzheng. Fangzheng did not say anything. He just shrugged and turned to leave.
"Mr. Fangzheng …."
Mikiyo Mikiyo wanted to say something, but Fangzheng had already left the stage. At the same time, the other three girls also gathered around Mikiyo Mikiyo.
"Mikiyo, this …."
"I'm sorry, everyone, it's all my fault …."
Looking at the worried and uneasy faces of her companions around her, Mikiyo gritted her teeth.
"I'll take care of this!"
After saying this, Mikiyo turned around and ran to the other side. Soon, she left the stage and caught up with An Yilun, who had already been kicked out of the hall by the security guards. An Yilun smiled when he saw Mikiyo Mikiyo running out to look for him.
"You're out, Mikiyo. Are you okay? Did that bastard do anything to you?"
To An Yilun's surprise, Mikiyo, who was panting, did not answer him. Instead, she walked over and slapped An Yilun hard on the face.
Slap!
Mikiyo slapped An Yilun in the face, knocking off his glasses. An Yilun covered his cheek that was slapped and stared at the girl in front of him in shock. Hikari Mikoto gave An Yilun a hard slap, and then glared at him and roared.
"What the hell are you thinking?! Idiot!! "
"I, I just wanted to protect you …."
Facing the furious Mikiyo, An Yilun was completely dumbfounded.
"Protect me? What do I have to protect? I just wanted to say hello to the organizer of this exhibition, but you messed everything up! "
Mikiyo Mikiyo clenched her fists angrily. She had only learned about Fangzheng's identity from the staff not long ago, and she also knew that he was the organizer of this exhibition. She wanted to find a chance to get to know him, but she did not expect something like this to happen. In fact, when she chased after Fangzheng just now, she received a call from the person in charge of the exhibition, asking them to suspend the rehearsal ….
This was very normal. After all, they were just a small band that had been invited to stir up the atmosphere. Yet, they had inexplicably attacked their sugar daddy. Even if Fangzheng didn't say a word, it was impossible for his subordinates to do nothing!
Thinking of this, Mikiyo became even angrier.
"Listen to me, Mikiyo. That man is very dangerous. He's deceived a lot of women. Ying Lili, Megumi, and even Kai Hai were all deceived by him …."
An Yilun also tried to explain, but Michirou interrupted him coldly.
"Allen, do you know how hard our band worked to get the chance to appear on this stage?"
"Huh?"
"In order to get the chance to appear on stage this time, me, Shi Xiao, Wise Jia, Basket, we spent a lot of effort to reach an agreement with the organizers. After that, in order to get the chance to perform today, we have been practicing until late every day before going home. Do you know what it means for us to appear on stage this time? We've already reached an agreement with the company. If our performance is successful, we can further cooperate with them. We might even join the firm and officially debut …. "
"…."
"But you messed everything up. I just received a call from the organizer, asking us to suspend the rehearsal and wait for further notice. Our months of hard work has been wasted just like that!"
"I'm sorry …."
An Yilun lowered his head when he heard Mikiyo's words.
"I'm sorry, Mikiyo. I didn't mean it, but this man is really dangerous. We can find someone else to work with. I believe that with your strength, Mikiyo, you can definitely …."
"Don't you understand? Allen? "
Mikiyo looked at An Yilun and interrupted him.
"This isn't my dream. This is our Icy Entertainment.
This is the dream of Icy Tail and the others! What do you think our dream is? Don't you understand why Sawamura-san, Sawamura-san and the others left you? Because in your opinion, only your dream is a dream. Everyone else must serve you unconditionally and listen to you, but we also have our own ideas, okay?! "
"But, but I also helped them …."
"But in the end, it's only for yourself, right?"
At that moment, Mikiyo's tone became much colder.
"Everyone knows this, but at that time, we were all high school students. It's normal to do some stupid things without caring about the gains and losses. But now that so much time has passed, Allen, everyone will grow up. You're the only one who's still immersed in that unrealistic dream. And then again, what's the point of your dream? What did you get after working so hard until now? "
"I …."
"You say I'm talented, but so what? I'm not who I used to be. I know that I'm not the only talented person in this world. There's someone more talented than me! I need a chance. Otherwise, even if I'm talented, what can I do? If I can't get a chance to show myself, then all this is meaningless. Now that I finally got a chance, it's been ruined by you! "
"…."
Hearing Mikiyo's words, An Yilun was speechless, but he clenched his fists and said nothing.
"Go back with me and apologize to Mr. Fangzheng."
Mikiyo did not say anything else. She grabbed An Yilun's hand. Hearing this, An Yilun hurriedly shook off Mikiyo's hand as if he was scalded.
"Why should I apologize to him!?"
"Because it's your fault. Are you going or not?!"
"I'm not going!"
Hearing this, An Yilun immediately roared angrily. Mikiyo just stared at him. After a while, she took a deep breath.
"Fine, then get out of here! Get out now! I don't want to see you anymore!! From now on, I have nothing to do with you! "
After saying this, Mikiyo turned around and went back to the venue.
"Mikiyo!"
Seeing Mikiyo leaving, An Yilun hurriedly rushed up to grab her, but he was quickly stopped by the security guards. He could only clench his fists helplessly and stare at Mikiyo's back, gritting his teeth.
Why? Why can't you understand me? I'm doing this for you! Mikiyo!!
Mikiyo, of course, could not hear An Yilun's inner roar. She was not a superpower user, nor could she read minds. How could she know what An Yilun was thinking?
The most important thing for Mikiyo now was ….
"I'm really, really sorry!"
Seeing Mikiyo bowing and apologizing again in front of him, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows.
"I don't mind, and if you want to apologize, you shouldn't be the one doing it. After all, this matter has nothing to do with you from beginning to end."
"No, I'm also responsible. Please forgive me, Mr. Fangzheng …."
"There's no need to forgive me. Let's call it a day."
Fangzheng shook his head as though he had no intention of speaking further. He gestured for Ichikari to leave. In fact, he was a little angry. Thankfully, Fran Doru had gone to bed after being tired from all the shopping. Otherwise, it was hard to say what would have happened to her after such a fright!
"About the performance …."
"You can discuss it with the committee."
"This …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's answer, Ichikari's heart sank. Clearly, Fangzheng did not want to interfere in the matters between them, but Ichikari knew that if he did not say anything, then all the hard work and struggle they had put in over the years would be in vain!
After all, if she hadn't brought An Yilun along, this would not have happened ….
Thinking of this, Mikiyo clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
"I-I'm willing to do anything. Please, Mr. Fangzheng, help me explain it to the committee. Please!"
Having said that, Ichidō Michirou once again bowed deeply to Fang Zheng.
"Oh?"
Hearing Mikiyo's answer, Fangzheng glanced at her. He did not think much of it at first, but she actually delivered herself to his doorstep ….
"You know what you mean by this, don't you?"
"… ….."
Mikiyo did not say anything. She just nodded.
"Yeah ….."
Looking at the girl whose face had turned red to her ears, Fangzheng was silent for a moment.
"Well, I'll give you a chance."
