I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!
Chapter 665: Get Ready

Chapter 665: Chapter 665: Get Ready

Fortunately, the time had not truly come yet, since Mr. Lin was still on top, babbling nonstop. His words were those that the young gentlemen below were rather reluctant to hear, as they kept urging him incessantly.

"Come on, manager, we all know you are professional, but we really don’t believe it now. We are simply too curious. Our curiosity could probably kill us. Just hurry up and let the lady take off her mask, let us see what she really looks like. If you keep hesitating like this, we are certainly going to go crazy."

"Exactly, exactly, we who come here often are a bit tired of your excuses. It might be better to just get straight to the point. We’ve spent so much money, it’s time you let us see this lady’s true self. It can’t be that after taking our money, all we get is your long-winded chatter.

If it continues like this, it’s really going to be quite boring. Okay, once you unveil the mask, we are supposed to get a bit of an intimate interaction. Our top patron is still here, and we can’t miss this part, right, Mr. Lin?"

The young gentlemen below had already formed a very good relationship with Mr. Lin, so they often teased him. Mr. Lin knew these young gentlemen meant no harm and simply laughed a bit. He felt that this young girl by his side would surely achieve great things in the future, just like in the present situation.

She could stand there emotionlessly. If it were another woman, she certainly wouldn’t be able to conceal her true thoughts so well and would have taken off the mask already without having the patience to listen to him finish.

"Alright, don’t rush. Let me first ask if this young lady is ready.

If she is ready, she will unveil her true identity soon, and you will see what this lady really looks like. If you keep rushing like this, you might miss it. Beautiful things always need a bit of time, right?"

Mr. Lin also said this with a smile, helping Lin Qi to ease her mood. Lin Qi was almost ready above, especially having seen the trusting and encouraging look in Shen Dong’s eyes. With that, what was there to fear?

She was the prettiest among those below. If they felt her makeup wasn’t attractive, then it was their loss; she didn’t need to waste words on such people. She would just do her part, right? So, she stood on the stage, acknowledging a necessary procedure they had discussed previously, to first thank these people for their support, then proceed as planned.

"Thank you all for supporting 007. Today is the first time 007 has appeared on this stage and performed. I haven’t practiced for long, but surprisingly, it captured your liking.

I thought it would take a bit longer, but it seems your excellent taste brought you directly to me. I truly appreciate everyone here, and I hope you all will continue to support 007. I will endeavor to practice hard for better performances in the future."

After saying this, she bowed once again. The audience of nobles was very satisfied, becoming even more enthusiastic. They were surprised not only by her graceful dancing, but her hair and gentle voice carried a unique charm.

The person seemed like a small rabbit that entered unexpectedly into a fortified city, which made everyone even more curious. What kind of face lies behind the mask, one that matches such a physique, such a voice? They began shouting from below.

"Alright, beauty, don’t keep us in suspense anymore. We’re tired of the thanks, so why don’t you just show us your true face? Anything you say after that will do."

Everyone was saying this below, and the young gentlemen vigorously agreed. After taking a deep breath, Lin Qi reached behind her head, preparing to cut off the mask.

Everyone was so eager to see her face, hoping that they would not find it unattractive or regretful. Even though she was usually confident about her appearance, at this moment, she felt slightly doubtful whether she could really meet their expectations.

With one swift move, she took off the mask. It turned out that wearing the mask had indeed brought out some intense feelings. When she removed it, the crowd gasped, and at that moment, the music appropriately started playing a victorious tune that felt particularly soothing.

Everyone had seen the face hidden behind the mask, so pure that she seemed like she should be wearing a school uniform and carrying a backpack, walking on a school street rather than dancing here and expressing such gratitude. They suddenly felt a sense of guilt, as if they were speaking to an underage girl.

The young noblemen stopped making a fuss, but were deeply shocked inside. Many regretted not investing right away. If they had, they wouldn’t be regretting it now.

Because the top patron spoke, they were allowed to come up for a close interaction. Seeing the mood below cool down, they worried if it might be their fault.

Mr. Lin was also seeing this atmosphere for the first time, and was disbelieving, reassured by looking at the woman beside him. It was 007 indeed, as beautiful as always. How could she be the reason the atmosphere had cooled down?

Something seemed off. After looking around and finding nothing amiss, he remembered he was a host and had to bring the energy back up if the mood had dropped.

"What’s going on? Weren’t you all excited just now? Why such a reaction now that she has taken off the mask? This isn’t right. Come on, everybody speak up. Don’t stay quiet. Silence is not good, it might hurt the lady’s feelings. Better show some enthusiasm."

Mr. Lin was heating up the atmosphere in an awkward manner, hoping the crowd could catch his hints and not let the scene turn too awkward.
