Hua Changle lay sprawled on the bed, his entire body shrouded in gray, as if a dark cloud was flashing with lightning and thunder, and a torrential downpour was pouring down on him.
She was like a small flower, slowly withering and bending down from her upright posture.
"Ahem, um..." Hua Wuyan cleared his throat, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he received a resentful look from Hua Changle.
Hua Changle raised her hand, palm up, and made a "please" gesture.
The guilty brothers, some smoothing their hair, some touching their heads, and some pretending to be lame, all silently withdrew.
After the three of them left, Hua Changle suddenly "came back to life," sat up, took out his communicator, and made a call.
"Hello? Lele—"
The performer's loud voice, accompanied by the chaotic stage music, startled Hua Changle, who hurriedly lowered his phone volume.
"Entertainer! Activate the backup plan! I'm trapped!" Hua Changle lowered his voice, then tried his best to speak loudly to fully convey his plea.
"Wh-what? I can't hear you—"
The performer's voice struggled to drown out the sound of the player that was right next to him.
"Don't rush, wait for me to come out..."
The performer left his seat and went to the outer area of the stage.
Hua Changle told him that his brother had indeed detained him, and that he wanted to bring a spare ticket in so he could catch the last few songs.
It turns out that as early as after waking up and thinking about Hua Xiange's concert, Hua Changle had wondered if he could participate and whether they would agree to it.
After some deliberation, Hua Changle decided to add another layer of insurance in addition to the family ticket provided by Hua Xiange.
As a die-hard fan of the lyrics (Hua Xian Ge's fan name), Lingren was determined to get tickets to this concert. Moreover, due to the preferential treatment given to those who hunted supernatural beings during the era of natural disasters, he was absolutely certain he could snag a ticket, and a good seat near the front.
This is because, during times of natural disasters, the status of the entertainment industry actually declines significantly compared to before the disaster. Many celebrities and artists need to use the name of natural disasters when carrying out large-scale events, and naturally they also need to provide benefits to frontline personnel.
For example, at Hua Xiange's concert this time, 80% of the after-tax income from the concert was donated in his name to the disaster-stricken areas of the Northern War.
When tickets are sold, such as concert tickets, in addition to the slots reserved by the organizers and artists, the first to have their tickets are those fans who have made significant contributions to the cause. "Entertainers" are those who meet this criterion.
Flower Chang Le also meets the criteria.
She has a distinguished record of military achievements and is also a fan of Hua Xiange. Of course, she was able to become the latter mainly because 422 silently followed, checked in, and voted for her.
Hua Changle asked a musician to help him snag a ticket.
If she can go, the musician will give the ticket to other lyricists; if needed, she can use this ticket, which Hua Xian Ge is unaware of.
These tickets are signed, and each person can only get one. However, the family tickets are not signed, so Hua Changle has two tickets.
Hua Xiange cleverly took away her younger sister's family vote, unaware that her sister had anticipated this and was one step ahead, having a backup plan.
However, this alternative plan has a risk: only the actors know where her tickets are. If the actors also prevent her from going, then there's really no other way.
As expected, the performer did not agree immediately, but instead inquired about her health.
At this point, Hua Changle didn't hide anything from him and told him the truth.
The actor hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is it absolutely necessary to go?"
Hua Changle paused for a moment, then slowly tightened his grip: "I will definitely go. I... Brother Lingren, I have a feeling that I absolutely have to go this time."
She didn't say it, but she had a vague premonition that she might not have the chance to attend the next concert live.
The performer didn't ask any more questions: "Call Lao Bai, he'll take you there. I need to notify Brother Hua's staff here at the venue to have them bring you in and ensure your safety."
"Okay!" Hua Changle said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Lingren!"
"Tell me immediately if anything happens."
"Oh, right," the actor suddenly realized, "how are you going to get out of the Hua family's house?"
Hua Changle grinned: "Hehe, I have my own shortcut."
...
Zhou Liang watched as Hua Changle, who was struggling down the stairs, reached out to help her: "Miss, what's wrong?"
Hua Changle had a sour face and looked sullen. Her tone was colder than usual: "I don't want to stay indoors. I want to go outside and sunbathe! Don't stop me!"
Seeing her like this, Zhou Liang knew that she was throwing a tantrum because she couldn't go to the second young master's concert.
He didn't stop her, and personally helped her, saying, "I'll go with you. Later, I'll get you a means of transportation."
Hua Changle let him support her.
She's feeling weak and needs to conserve her energy for the concert, so the old housekeeper's willingness to help her is a good way to save her energy.
Zhou Liangfu, holding a flower, asked Chang Le in the garden, "Are you sunbathing here?"
Hua Changle frowned and looked around, then asked, "Where are Da Hua and the others? I'm going to go play with them. What's the point of being here if no one's keeping me company?"
Zhou Liang frowned slightly.
The place where the white tigers are kept is a bit far from the main villa, and there are few guards. If Miss Chang Le were to have an accident there, it might be too late to rescue her.
He then said, "Miss, you're not feeling well, and Da Hua and his gang are reckless. If you go to them, you might get hurt..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hua Changle glanced at him.
It was devoid of warmth, filled with a cold and austere atmosphere, leaving no room for doubt.
Zhou Liang was taken aback.
He had never seen such a look in her eyes since Miss Chang Le woke up that time.
This look was even more piercing than when the young lady was acting erratically.
This is the look in the eyes of a superior who has seen blood.
"But I feel more at ease with the Big Flowers than with humans," Hua Changle said calmly, a faint smile playing on her lips.
