Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack
Chapter 370 - 352: Concert

Chapter 370: Chapter 352: Concert

Qin Nuan and Luo Yanran, among others, got to the location and immediately started arranging everything intensively. Staying in a hotel wouldn’t be a problem for the next few days, but their belongings couldn’t just stay there. Fortunately, the weather had already warmed up, so staying in tents wasn’t a big issue.

The site Qin Wen had previously scouted out was a golf driving range, sufficiently large and vast. It was also secure enough before the concert, so there wouldn’t be people casually walking in and taking things. The stage setup, and even seats, utilized the lightest materials considering it was during the day, so other than the essential audio equipment and screens, they didn’t even use chandeliers or need lighting. Makeup and dressing areas were right behind the stage. Although the stage wasn’t as large as the usual venues, they had put their heart into it. The materials used for constructing the stage were stacks of mineral water bottles, which made Lu Xunhuan couldn’t help but joke, "This is really making the most of everything." Everyone’s personal items could be packed into carry-on bags, and the performance costumes were intended to be disposable; there wouldn’t be a second use.

So there wasn’t much luggage, but Qin Nuan brought a considerable amount of paperwork, as there were too many tasks to handle. Afraid of leaving something out, she had recorded everything.

"Nuannuan." Qin Wen knocked on the hotel room door.

Qin Nuan opened the door to let her brother in, "What’s up? Want water or..." Her voice trailed off as she realized there was nothing but a few bottles of mineral water in the room. Qin Nuan had no choice but to offer water as hospitality.

"I’m done with my discussion. Some retired comrades from our eldest brother’s side came by to help. Do you have any tasks in mind for them?" Qin Wen had hardly slept these past few days; it was strange given how big a deal this was.

"Go around to the villages nearby and see if there are any lonely elderly folks or something, arrange for their pick-up right away, we don’t want any accidents." Qin Nuan drew several circles on the map, then rubbed her brows, "Second Brother, do you think what we’re doing can change anything?"

Qin Wen was momentarily stunned, then chuckled as he ruffled his sister’s hair, "Who knows what will happen with things that haven’t happened yet? Not everyone is as proactive as you guys; otherwise, wouldn’t all problems be avoided?"

Qin Nuan was dissatisfied with being treated like a child by Qin Wen and swatted away his hand vigorously. However, upon hearing his response, she felt somewhat relieved. Yes, nobody knew the outcome, and they were already doing their best, trying to prevent that sad memory from recurring.

"Alright, go back to sleep. Make the most of the comfortable bed while you can for the next few days. Where’s Big Brother?" Qin Nuan checked the time; it was already past eight, she drew back the curtains, and could vaguely see the twinkling stars in the sky.

"Big Brother went to get in touch with the Sichuan Military District, and he won’t be back today." Qin Wen looked at his tired sister with some distress, "Get some rest early. Don’t overexert yourself; you still have your brothers for anything."

Qin Nuan nodded and pulled a smile.

Qin Wen then left his sister’s room and entered his own next door.

Soon, there was another knock on Qin Nuan’s door. Frowning, Qin Nuan opened it to see a disgruntled Luo Yanran standing outside with several meal boxes that emitted tempting aromas.

"Qianqian that brat told you not to work too hard and asked me to buy you some late-night snacks. I didn’t know what you liked, so I just picked something randomly." Having said this, Luo Yanran stuffed the bag into Qin Nuan’s hands and yawned, "I’m heading back now; you eat slowly."

Qin Nuan raised an eyebrow, looked at the food in her hand, then at Luo Yanran who had already pushed his way into his room next door, curled the corners of her lips, and entered her room.

She opened the bag and ate with delight, not forgetting to thank her friend.

Time flew quickly, and on the evening of the 11th, at the stadium, it was the final call for the motivational concert.

The packed stadium buzzed with energy, a concert free of charge, and moreover, one could witness the live performances of the hottest male and female superstars—it was no surprise that the number of attendees surpassed the seating capacity of the stadium. Many stood to watch, waving their glow sticks, cheering joyfully, and perspiring with excitement, creating a lively atmosphere throughout the venue.

Luo Yanran, clad in an exquisite performance outfit, stood in the center of the stage, his magnetic voice echoing endlessly in the vast stadium.

As the song ended, the scheduled speech began.

"I believe everyone understands why I’m here. Regarding the earthquake warning that spread tonight, as your fellow countryman, I prefer to err on the side of caution. So here I am. Whether you believe it or not, I hope everyone will consider their own lives, alright? Huaxia is our home, and each one of you is my family. I don’t want anyone to get hurt, whether you believe the warning or not. Tomorrow afternoon, I’ll be at the golf course waiting for you. I can sign autographs for everyone, and I’ll also sing my unreleased new song for the first time in public. And even if nothing happens, getting to hear my new song early is a good thing too, right?" He said, his lips curling into a smile that, along with his exquisite face on the big screen, captivated the crowd—as the deafening cheers from the audience indicated.

"Now, let’s welcome Famous Lu to perform for us. The stage is yours, superstar!" Luo Yanran said with a beaming smile as he stepped back, and then, with the help of his stylist, began to change his look.

Qin Nuan held the draft she had written earlier and asked seriously, "Why didn’t you stick to the script at all?"

Luo Yanran responded, a bit sheepishly, "Can’t I forget my lines once in a while?"

The makeup artist said, "Look up," and continued to touch up his eye makeup.

Qin Nuan frowned, "You don’t need to be so nervous. Nothing’s going to happen today."

Luo Yanran was speechless inside. He just felt the draft was too wordy and decided to simplify it using plain speech. As a rising star at the peak of popularity, could he really make the mistake of forgetting his lines?

Luo Yanran nodded, "Has anyone contacted Qianqian?"

"I forgot. I’ll do it now." Qin Nuan was also nervous; she wasn’t a professional and was in this role simply because the situation called for it. It was understandable for her to be a bit stressed.

However, before she could make the call, Luo Qianqian had already sent a message clarifying that she had started to disseminate the specific timing of the event.

With a sigh of relief, and feeling somewhat helpless, Qin Nuan was grateful for Sun Zhichao’s, and the other two managers’, help in keeping the situation under control. If not for them and her brothers’ support—observing Qin Wen directing the staff on stage—Qin Nuan allowed herself a smile, shaking off the jumbled thoughts crowding her mind. She cleared her head and hurriedly focused on the next steps at hand.

Luo Yanran sighed quietly. Tonight was bound to be sleepless. After they finished washing up, they would likely have to stay in tents set up on the golf course. Fortunately, they had all the necessary living supplies.

Sun Zhichao was also juggling multiple roles, running around busily, even monitoring live online broadcasts to check viewer reactions.

Ironically, the three singers had it the easiest, as all they needed to focus on was their performance.

Meanwhile, in the makeup room, the superstar diva was busy memorizing her lines, mindful that her singing performance was not a matter of concern. As a singer, if she needed to cram for her singing at the last minute, wouldn’t it be a laughing stock?
