Chapter 5

Huang Yiyan's cigarette nearly fell from his lips, indeed it is Ning Huo

The sea guest's steps became smaller, glanced at her, and came over to ask in a low voice: "Who is this?"

You are seeing things

"Then where are you going? I will accompany you." He leaned closer.

The man followed over and said, "Wife."

Huang Yiyan does not believe

The family is short on money; if you have a good offer, you should make a compromise

Ning took two steps forward, extended his left arm to support himself against her ear, and asked with a smile, "Wife, are you coming over to check on me?"

He suddenly bit her ear

How much

The woman spoke again, accompanied by two laughs: "I happen to have a potato chip advertisement at hand, and your temperament is very suitable for it. The price is negotiable."

The air suddenly became quiet

Therefore, she would rather choose an unconventional path

The warehouse is too noisy, Huang Yiyan said: "I am going out for a smoke"

I am doing this all for the sake of supporting my family, reluctantly sacrificing my appearance

She suppressed her laughter and averted her gaze

What happened?" He affectionately tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear

Ning Huosha nodded, saying, "Hmm, my wife's musical talent should not be overlooked"

Little did anyone know, she replied briefly with a single word: "No"

Even Haike, who was responsible for submitting Ning Huo's resume as an intermediary, wrote the words "unmarried" when filling out Ning Huo's marital status. Haike did not understand Ning Huo's past. Ning Huo had never corrected this when seeing the resume

As she left the lounge, Pan Junmao couldn't help but comment, "Are you really obsessed with money, big sister"

You are an unknown model, and this amount is not insignificant

"Were you just wall slamming?" Haike recalled the half-second image from earlier in his mind

"Selling a husband?" His warm breath brushed against her ear

Huang Yiyan stood calmly behind the two men. She came over to practice, and the opportunity to appear on camera was given to them.

Huang Yiyan automatically isolated herself from the discussions below, and she noticed that Pan Junmao had sung a few notes incorrectly, so she adjusted her pitch accordingly

Huang Yiyan wrote the character "Huang" in one corner of a white sheet of paper

She put away her phone and said, "Go find a non-annoying pretty boy."

Pan Junmao's lips quivered twice: "A traitor who eats from both sides!"

She glanced at him

Ning Huo and Huang Yiyan have been secretly married for a year, coming from different backgrounds. When they initially got married, the two did not discuss whether to make their relationship public, yet they tacitly agreed to keep it hidden from the outside world

It is said that men are more common because female rock guitarists are rare

Huang Yiyan did not inquire about the reason for Ning Huo's presence here, as it was certain that this reason was undoubtedly related to his beauty

What number did she give? She tilted her head slightly upward

Luo Wenhe closed his mouth. He admired her, yet feared her. In this reunion, she was even more indifferent than before, and he did not dare to say much.

She has a dimple. This dimple has not served much purpose in serious matters, but rather for the sake of irony. Just like now, she raises the left corner of her mouth, looking at him with a smile that does not reach her eyes.

Ning Huokou repeatedly stated that Ming Wangshu is already a thing of the past

A woman walks out, her figure disappearing in front of an office door

"This number," the woman said

The female audience members repeatedly expressed their gratitude, holding the flyers close to their chests as if they were treasures

Ning Huo stood tall in front of her.

There is a saying that a woman is considered beautiful because of her slender and elongated figure

The warm-up session has concluded, and the band has moved to the left side of the stage. They are now waiting for the models to take the stage

Luo Wenhe could not help but say: "Sister Huang, you should not give up on music; you have fans after all"

Dressed neatly, Huang Yiyan instinctively adjusted her clothes. She vaguely heard Ning Huo chuckle softly beside her. She fiercely flicked her ear and turned back to walk away

Ning Huo smiled, "If you can't even repay your loan, where did you get the money to support a pretty boy?"

The naive child, Luo Wenhe, is once again lamenting her fall from grace

This couple has almost no communication in public. Her occasional sarcasm is already a rarity

Amidst the swirling smoke, she beheld a nearby plant of Aspidistra. Its stem twisted upward, the unadorned green leaves exuding no fragrance, nor were there any red flowers to be seen

The sea guest was half in doubt, "Alright. Let's go back, I will arrange your order of appearance."

Original infringement, if pursuing legal rights, one can easily deduce that it will be arduous and thankless

"Are you nervous?" Luo Wenhe thought, she hasn't played the guitar for over a year, and the psychological pressure must be considerable.

On the day of the launch ceremony, a stage was set up in the front square of the shopping mall, and the rehearsal area was temporarily converted from a warehouse and office. The office was labeled as a changing room, while the large warehouse was divided into several sections with signs.

It is said that Hong Wo is getting married to Huang Yiyan, and everyone assumes that her husband is Liu Yongyan

The audience's applause broke out sporadically

Luo Wenhe whispered, "The scale of this event is quite significant."

Moreover, no one on Ning Huo's side is aware of the fact that he is married

Huang Yiyan raised her head and said, "Hmm." Although the Golden Yellow combination had gained some popularity, it was only within niche circles; this was her first time being recognized in a setting outside of the Red Nest.

The sea guest rushed out, striding hurriedly, shouting: "Ning Huo."

The audience thought she was hiding out of nervousness. Upon further listening, it was the two men in front who were extremely tense. When the lead singer introduced the band's name, the final note quivered and abruptly stopped

Huang Yiyan's mind flashed with the image of Ning Huo

A female audience member pulled out a flyer from her bag, then took out a signature pen and excitedly said: "Could you please give me your autograph?"

She is colder than he is

The scalding lips and tongue caught her off guard, causing her to let out a sharp hiss. Just as she was about to reprimand, she suddenly heard footsteps approaching from a distance.

Huang Yiyan held a cigarette and sneered coldly

Ning Huo extended his arm to shield her from the crowd, saying, "Accompanying my wife home"

Yes

A faint fragrance wafted in. A year ago, she won a bottle of men's perfume worth fifty yuan in a supermarket lottery. She placed it on the bathroom sink, but one day it suddenly disappeared

Huang Yiyan carried his guitar back to the lounge

His five fingers formed the shape of a wolf's head, wide open to devour her face, "Snap, it was eaten."

"I don't know, perhaps ask for directions." Ning Huo casually put his hands in his pockets, remaining calm as usual

Huang Yiyan and Pan Junmao are seated close to each other, and she can see his slightly shaking legs. These two truly have no stage experience whatsoever

Just like her past, which was filled with wounds and scars. Those who have traversed a sea of blood remember most vividly the butcher's knife at the end of the road of love

Huang Yiyan thought that fighting against Cai Xinqiu with her own strength was undoubtedly like hitting a stone with an egg. However, she immediately ruled out Luo Wenhe as a potential partner.

"Sigh," Luo Wenhe lamented, "She wasn't like this before; perhaps she's been tight on money lately." After a pause, he curiously asked, "Aren't you also quite stingy?"

The three members of the band each return to their respective positions

At this moment, Luo Wenhe felt much calmer. He had just seen a female audience member taking pictures of him, and even now, her gaze was still fixed on him. He finally experienced the thrill of being in the spotlight and playfully flicked his little braid with his drumstick

He suddenly raised his eyebrows at her, sending a subtle signal of affection.

He glanced at the guitar case on her back and asked, "Have you started playing the guitar again?"

Luo Wenhe's lips curled upward, revealing an awkward smile

He turned around and walked back, glancing at her with a blank expression

Sister Huang," Luo Wenhe leaned closer to Huang Yiyan, "Has the Golden Yellow combination participated in such activities before?

She raised her head and asked, "What do you want?" This was not good; seeing him not only gave her a headache, but also made her ears hurt, and there was even an uncomfortable sensation of sticky saliva.

Luo Wenhe pretended not to know, slowly turning around, and heard a female audience member ask: "Excuse me, are you the big yellow from the Golden Yellow Group?" He was instantly disheartened, realizing that everything before was indeed a fantasy

The host, the etiquette team, the models, and the orchestra come together, with the orchestra being the least conspicuous.

Luo Wenhe has been able to persist in music for so many years precisely because of his integrity and kindness. Similarly, he has endured for so many years due to the same reason. He is not suited for the harsh realities of the industry.

Ning Huo quickly released her

As the band was packing up their instruments, a female audience member jogged over

There are not many male models, and Ning Huo changed into another set of sportswear. As he walked the runway, he remained indifferent, not casting a glance at Huang Yiyan.

In addition to Jin Can Can and Huang Yi Yan, who is trustworthy, there is also Ning Huo. Although the marriage between the two is essentially a facade, Ning Huo is well-versed in the rules of society. He stands at the forefront of the consumption of male beauty.

Having finished the calculations, Huang Yiyan took the money and left

The band lacks synergy, resulting in a complete failure in coordination. Fortunately, the audience is unable to discern the underlying issues.

Luo Wenhe and Pan Junmao were hiding in the corner, both silent, their different facial features displaying the same expression—furrowed brows and downturned mouths

A stunning scream came from the audience, and she slightly raised her eyebrows

Goodbye. Ning Huo walked out of the corridor and turned his head to see Huang Yiyan. He stopped in his tracks

After the host announces, the band takes the stage

With no outsiders present, a surge of emotion that had been lodged in Huang Yiyan's throat was finally coughed out

Nonsense. "Did I say I want to go home?"

She noticed his hand shielding the light, and her figure moved slightly

She walked in the opposite direction, intending to return after finishing this cigarette

The female audience member, appearing to be a student, spoke with a slight tremor in her voice as she bent over to look at Huang Yiyan, who was still seated in his chair

The inauguration ceremony lasted for an afternoon

She stepped back

Heh

She does not love to smoke; at this moment, she is merely holding a cigarette in her mouth, lighting it only when she reaches the corridor

Huang Yiyan slightly lowered her head, her short hair falling down from both cheeks, obscuring many scrutinizing gazes. She wore a black shirt and matching tight pants, with a golden necklace hanging down in front of her chest, shining brilliantly under the stage lights.

Huang Yiyan left the venue and initially intended to take a taxi, but in order to save money, she decided to walk to the bus station. While checking the bus routes on her phone, a figure stood beside her.

Huang Yiyan leaned against the wall, flipping through the sheet music. "No," he said. However, the business at the red nest was thriving, and the audience was no less than for such activities.

Ning Huo's hand was hovering across her left cheek, "What is my wife thinking?"

Pan Junmao is calculating the distribution ratio of the money

A person who has barely stepped into the entertainment industry actually stole her lottery prize

Pan Junmao's brows furrowed even more, and his hands trembled slightly. The two had been playing in the band for quite some time, engaging in light-hearted antics, but now faced with such a grand occasion, it was inevitable that they felt a sense of insecurity

Yet it was Pan Junmao who was left in a daze again

This outfit is androgynous, and many viewers are unable to see her face clearly, repeatedly asking: "Is this a man or a woman?"

As I approached, a female voice sounded from around the corner: "Where? I work for a media company. With your looks and figure, it would be a waste to be just a print model; you should go straight to television.

The twilight bathed Huang Yiyan, who was lost in thought, in a jujube color, softening her solitude.

It is low

This man is so annoying. "You spend all day showing off, have you made quite a bit of money?"

The other party did not respond

The woman followed him out and handed Ning Huo a business card, saying, "Let's keep in touch"

She wanted to smoke again, but his right hand blocked her. She impatiently said, "You—"
