I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 1068: Stunning 2

The layered skirts flowed with elegance as she lifted the hem and sat on a wooden bench nearby, her starry eyes cast down, with long and curled eyelashes that resembled fluttering butterfly wings.

Offstage.

Cheng Youran and Jian Yixue were both stunned.

"Xixi looks incredibly beautiful in ancient costume! Whimper!"

Even the two girls had this reaction; Yan Yichen and Xiao Xichen were nodding in agreement.

Ji Yebai’s deep black eyes were fixed on that slender figure on stage, his usually impassive eyes now filled with unspeakable amazement.

The Adam’s apple rolled, and his thin lips curved into a smile.

His wife, Ji Yebai’s, looks beautiful in anything she wears! ~\(≧▽≦)/~

The first song began its performance. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Ning Xixi was under immense pressure, her hand plucking the strings trembled slightly, but luckily she had a solid foundation, and, after all, it was a piece composed by her mother.

Since her mother’s passing, she had practiced constantly, so now she could deliver a good performance and wasn’t too stage-shy.

As soon as Ou Fengyi began to sing, the audience was enraptured.

A music critic had once described Ou Fengyi’s voice as "kissed by God," and indeed, it lived up to the reputation!

For a singer, technique is secondary; innate talent is paramount!

Ou Fengyi had excellent vocal conditions, a wide range, and could handle both real and falsetto voices very well, making his voice highly recognizable.

Coupled with his outstanding appearance and emotionally involved performance style, he was very popular in the country.

With flowing accompaniment and effortless singing, the first song ended, and the room erupted into enthusiastic applause.

The second song followed with equal success!

By the third song, Ning Xixi flexed her fingers and searched for Ji Yebai’s figure under the stage.

He still maintained his cool and detached demeanor, and upon noticing her gaze, he pouted slightly and mouthed, "Good luck."

Though just two simple words, Ning Xixi couldn’t help but smile sweetly.

With him there, it seemed like she wasn’t afraid of anything.

Because he was Ji Yebai.

As she smiled, many in the audience followed suit, not knowing why, just feeling that this girl’s smile was exceptionally infectious.

Even Xiao Xichen grinned foolishly, receiving a murderous glare from Ji Yebai, "Who allowed you to smile at my woman?"

Xiao Xichen: (ㄒoㄒ)/~~ Baby’s heart aches, baby won’t dare anymore...

The third song began playing, but suddenly Ou Fengyi shifted his focus.

Initially, he had been singing towards the audience, but now, his gaze was fixed on—Ning Xixi!

Ning Xixi, deeply focused on playing the piano, hadn’t noticed Ou Fengyi gazing intently at her.

After singing the last line and playing the final segment, she finished!

Feeling a wave of relief, she looked up, only to meet Ou Fengyi’s shining eyes!

If described in terms of food cravings, it was like a starving wolf encountering a piece of juicy meat... eyes full of longing!

Ning Xixi felt uneasy, wondering if she played the wrong note? Was Ou Fengyi about to confront her? Or...

The next moment, Ou Fengyi’s clear and gentle voice traveled through the microphone to every ear in the room:

"I like you, Ning Xixi."

Ning Xixi was instantly dumbfounded, her lips slightly parted.

Oh my! Was she hearing things?

Under the stage, Ji Yebai suddenly stood up, striding rapidly towards the stage!
