A Billion Dollar Exchange 230 First Performance

"…And finally there is an upcoming singer who is here to grace us with one of her singles. She is set to release her first Alb.u.m in the coming year, please can we put our hands together for Lee Liling!!''

The whole crowd applauded as a strikingly beautiful woman walked up the stage with a smile on her face. She was putting on a short flair gown and her hair was beautifully packed. The heels that housed her small feet didn't fail to accentuate her glorious beauty. Even without her picking up the microphone, many had already fallen in love with her.

Liling walked to the stage amidst the cheers of the spectators. Although she had been nervous for over a week, Miss Su had made sure she talked out all atom of nervousness from her before the D-day.

''h.e.l.lo everyone, I'm Liling. ''

The cheers from the crowd slowly died down as Liling started speaking.

''So this song, 'Treacherous' means so much to me, and I hope you like it.

Liling smiled and almost immediately, the instruments started playing in the background.

''… Put your lips close to mine

As long as they don't touch,

Out of focus eye to eye

'til the gravity's too much

And I'll do anything you say…

The audience quietly listened as she sang her song. The woman on the stage sang slowly, her eyes were bright as it searched through the crowd; she sang as though she had been up the stage numerous times.

…I, I, I like it

Two headlights s.h.i.+ne through the sleepless night

And I will get you, will get you alone

Your name has echoed through my mindFind authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

And I just, think you should, think you should know

That nothing safe is worth the drive and I will

Follow you, follow you home…

Liling's smile blazed as she sang from her heart, as though she was singing for someone out there. The second part was more striking, it was the real message in the song, and Liling sang it with every fiber in her, coupled with the instruments, the audience was enchanted.

...Two headlights s.h.i.+ne through the sleepless night

And I will get you, will get you alone

Your name has echoed through my mind

And I just, think you should

Think you should know

That nothing safe is worth the drive and I will

Follow you follow you home,

I'll follow you, follow you home…

As Liling concluded, there was a second of quietness amongst the crowd before an ear deafening applause erupted in the large theatre.

Liling bowed a little and with a small smile she said a little thank you then handed the microphone to the MC who had come up the stage.

''Wow, wow, wow, I wasn't really expecting that. Please what better word than perfect can I use to describe this upcoming artist. She's something else, I believe she lived up to our expectations…''

Liling left through the back, and there Miss Su was standing with a beautiful smile.

Liling, who wasn't sure if she did well, knew that she did when she saw the radiating smile on her manager's face.

''Come here…''

Liling was flabbergasted when she saw her manager open her arms wide. She gulped hard before slowly walking to her and hugging her.

''You did well, I'm proud of you.''

Miss Su said as she lightly patted her back.

''Thank you Manager Su. ''

After a moment, Miss Su withdrew and peered at her blus.h.i.+ng face.

''There are some people who I want you to meet, it's just a dinner, you don't need to look so scared!''

Liling laughed, and nodded her head immediately.

''I'll first have to use the restroom.''

Miss Su nodded and she quickly ran off to the ladies restroom. Liling wanted to ease her bowels but most importantly, she wanted to call Liu Wei. She had told him earlier that day that she would be singing for him and that he should be there, she did not spot him in the crowd, and he wasn't in the VIP area.

''Hey…''

There was silence on the other end, before Liu Wei's voice came through.

''You were amazing. ''

A blush slowly crept up her cheeks and Liling shyly looked down on her feet.

''Did you like it?''

''I'll tell you when I see you.''

Liu Wei replied. He did not want any paparazzi following him, so he wore casual clothes and sat among the crowd. He was there from the beginning of the show till Liling walked up to the stage and up on till she left.

As she sang, he felt his whole world stop, when she had told him that she was going to sing for him, he did not expect something like that. His heart raced rapidly and when she finished, every fiber in him was yearning for her.

He was paralyzed for almost five minutes, before blinking back to consciousness. He stood up and briskly walked out of the hall, when he was out, he took out his phone to give her a call, but hers came in before he could dial her number.

''Ah, that would be later, Miss Su says we have to meet some important persons.''
