Chapter 340: Surprise

After filming, Yang Yi returned home in the evening and started packing. He folded some of Xixi’s clothes and put them in the suitcase. Xixi, who had just finished talking to her mother on the phone, ran in with her phone in both hands. Seeing this scene, she curiously squatted down and looked at the suitcase with her father, saying, “Papa, what are you doing?”

“Packing our bags! Didn’t you say you missed your Mama? How about Papa takes you to see Mama tomorrow?” Yang Yi looked up and said with a smile.

This was something Yang Yi had been planning for a long time. He not only asked Chen Yijie for VIP tickets for the front row of the concert but also asked Fu Jun, who was in Guangzhou, to book a hotel for them to rest temporarily. Fu Jun also prepared a car for Yang Yi’s transportation.

Mo Fei, this silly woman, always wanted to bear the pressure from outside by herself. Yang Yi felt that instead of asking her to come home often to see her daughter during this busy time, it would be better to send Xixi over to meet her so that Mo Fei could work more at ease.

The little girl had already taken a bath and was wearing her pajamas. Earlier, Yang Yi was worried that she would catch a cold, so he had her put on a coat. She looked very ladylike.

“Really?” Xixi’s eyes widened in surprise and she asked excitedly, “I’ll see Mama tomorrow? Oh, I didn’t tell Mama just now!”

The little girl’s skin was very good. Although the weather in winter was a bit dry, Xixi’s little face was still delicate after taking a bath. Now she had a regretful expression on her face. She looked like a little adult and was so cute, making people want to pinch her.

“Don’t tell your Mama, let’s give her a surprise!” Yang Yi deliberately lowered his voice and said mysteriously to Xixi.

“Surprise? Okay, I won’t tell Mama, but how can I surprise Mama?” Xixi couldn’t help but lower her voice as well, as if she were having a secret conversation with her father, speaking with great effort.

“Listen to me…” Yang Yi, who was also childish, squatted down with his daughter and they both started discussing their big plan in low voices even though there was no one else in the room.

……

The next morning, Mo Fei took a plane from Shanghai to Guangzhou. The mall that co-hosted this signing event with Tianmei sent a nanny car for pick-up and drop-off.

Mo Xiaojuan sat in the front passenger seat and chatted with the driver about the delicacies of Guangzhou. The drivers in Guangdong Province were not that fond of talking, but this old driver was still quite talkative. He could talk non-stop about all kinds of delicious food made from ingredients that fly in the sky, crawl on the ground, or swim in water.

Mo Fei sat in the back. She didn’t have the habit of chatting with strangers. She took out her phone and sent a message to Yang Yi, letting him know that she had arrived safely.

She didn’t make a call because the driver wasn’t one of their own.

After sending the text message, Mo Fei didn’t put down her phone but held it in her hand, waiting for Yang Yi’s reply.

There was a tacit understanding between the two, which was that Yang Yi would now always carry his phone with him so he would basically reply to her messages in seconds. Mo Fei was the same, but she didn’t have the condition to hold her phone all day long. So, every day she would call Yang Yi at the agreed time without fail.

Mo Fei was someone who didn’t like change and was a particularly insecure woman. If Yang Yi suddenly didn’t reply to her messages, she would become worried for a while. Of course, as long as Yang Yi took the initiative to explain, the little emotions of anxiety and worry that had built up due to his delayed responses would quickly disappear.

Yang Yi knew Mo Fei’s characteristics, so he also carefully maintained them, giving her a sense of security.

Sure enough, after a while, Mo Fei received a text message from Yang Yi. However, this time, the content of the text message was not just Yang Yi’s routine concern. He also asked Mo Fei where she was staying tonight and whether it was arranged properly.

Although Mo Fei felt that this text message was a bit strange, she didn’t think much about it. She simply thought that Chen Yijie wanted to arrange it for her. She honestly told Yang Yi the name of the hotel she was staying at: “Four Seasons Hotel, it’s arranged by the organizer of the signing event, no need to bother Tianxiang…”

……

The signing event was very successful. Many people came to the scene. From 10 o’clock in the morning when Mo Fei arrived, the signing event, which was originally scheduled to end at 12 o’clock, was extended by an hour. However, that only satisfied most of the fans’ needs for signatures. The queue of enthusiastic fans was still very long and endless.

Mo Fei hadn’t experienced such overwhelming popularity in many years. She was moved by the enthusiastic fans and wanted to make sure she signed autographs for all of them before leaving.

But there was no way. She had other arrangements in the afternoon, including the final simple rehearsal for Chen Yijie’s concert. She couldn’t let her “selfishness” delay other people’s affairs.

So, after Mo Xiaojuan negotiated with the organizer, this signing event still had to be hastily concluded.

There were still many fans who had queued up but couldn’t get Mo Fei’s signature. However, they didn’t make a fuss. Under Mo Fei’s sincere explanation, they all expressed their understanding.

Among the fans present, many had also bought tickets for Chen Yijie’s concert that evening. Of course, they bought these tickets for Chen Yijie. In the Cantonese-speaking region, Chen Yijie’s popularity was soaring. These people who are willing to spend money on chasing stars would naturally not miss Chen Yijie’s concert.

“Then we’ll meet again at the concert tonight.” Mo Fei waved her hand gratefully and left with Mo Xiaojuan in the car.

There was no time for a break at all and even lunch, Mo Fei had to eat in the nanny car. Perhaps because she was accustomed to Yang Yi’s carefully prepared food, Mo Fei found it difficult to eat the boxed meals now, even though the boxed meals provided by the organizer and the mall for her and her assistance were packaged from a grand hotel.

But food cools quickly in winter, and Mo Fei found that these Cantonese dishes, such as white-cut chicken and plum vegetable braised pork, which should have been delicious, were all cold and tasteless. They were not as delicious as what Yang Yi made! Thinking of Yang Yi in her heart, Mo Fei just hurriedly ate a few bites to fill her stomach.

Of course, she wouldn’t complain about the organizer because of her own preferences. Because this was the price stars needed to pay. Not to mention Mo Fei, even a superstar like Chen Yijie was too busy to eat because of his concert!

When Mo Fei and his team arrived, Chen Yijie was wearing a warm military coat and standing on the stage of the stadium in the howling cold wind. He was inspecting the stage while communicating with the event staff through a microphone.

Upon Mo Fei’s arrival, Chen Yijie went backstage to receive her. His little assistant took the opportunity to hand over his lunch, allowing him to eat a few bites.

“I’m sorry for making you laugh1. You don’t mind, do you? By the way, would you like something to eat?” Chen Yijie continued to be courteous to Mo Fei.

He didn’t eat much either and quickly took Mo Fei to inspect the stage. He said, “After I finish the fourth song, ‘Long Time No See,’ I’ll go change. At that time, I’ll trouble you to sing your song.”

“Hmm.” Mo Fei followed him, speaking less and listening more.

“I’ll have the band come up to accompany you in a while. You can give it a try. Oh, right!” Chen Yijie spoke straightforwardly, but he seemed to have thought of something, turned his head, and said with a smile, “Miss Mo, you used to be a singer in Hong Kong, so you shouldn’t have a problem singing Cantonese songs, right?”

This was also an additional question. Chen Yijie was currently communicating with Mo Fei in Cantonese. After all, he could manage singing his songs in Mandarin, but regular conversations were a bit challenging for him.

“No problem.” Mo Fei nodded and looked at Chen Yijie with some confusion, not knowing why he brought up this history.

“That’s good. I want to collaborate with Miss Mo on Mr. Mu Li’ang’s ‘Better Not to Meet’. What do you think?” Chen Yijie said enthusiastically, “Just after you finish singing your song, I will come back after changing my clothes…”

Sing Cantonese songs!

Mo Fei hadn’t sung Cantonese songs in front of the public for many years. But Chen Yijie’s proposal made her heart beat faster. Although she had achieved success in the mainland market, it must be said that her failure in Hong Kong years ago still weighed on her mind.

“Okay!” Mo Fei readily agreed.

“Then let’s try it! Wait a moment, I’ll bring you a lyric sheet and we can check how to sing it!” Chen Yijie snapped his fingers and said happily.
