Chapter 208: Chapter 209: Unexpected Stage Incident

The performance was successful.

It was evident from the sporadic applause.

During her intermission, Xia Yangyang continuously watched the audience from backstage.

She wanted to see if Gu Qichen had come at all.

But the dimly lit crowd from the stage was indistinguishable; Xia Yangyang couldn’t see clearly.

The last act of Xia Yangyang’s performance began.

The final act was “The Butterfly Lovers”.

Against a poignant background…

With a weeping tone, Zhu Yingtai said: “Brother Liang, we pledged our love to each other, thinking we were a match made in heaven. Who knew our names were not recorded in the Book of Marriage? We hoped the Old Man under the Moon would be our matchmaker, but instead of the magpies delivering good news, only the crows cawed. We anticipated a grand wedding with music, but the Milky Way was broken and the bridge of crows severed. We waited for a bridal palanquin to arrive at your home, only to be met with a white funeral suit in return. Oh Brother Liang, I seek not to live together, but to die together…”

At this moment, the sky suddenly changed, with tumultuous thunder and lightning. Zhu Yingtai flung herself from the tower…

It was a small jump off a one-meter platform with stairs and props arranged beforehand.

Despite being only a meter, she landed on a soft cushion, ensuring she wouldn’t get hurt.

It was covered by plant and flower props.

The conclusion was Zhu Yingtai lying down, transforming with the deceased Liang Shanbo into two butterflies.

So Xia Yangyang, after jumping, had to lie still on the cushion until the performance ended and the curtain was drawn…

From the side came the narration: “Ever since, amongst all the rainbows and blooming flowers, two butterflies can always be seen fluttering and dancing together. It is said that these were Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in their butterfly forms. After their transformation, they remained inseparable until the world end.”

Xia Yangyang lay there, motionless, her mind consumed with wondering if Gu Qichen had come today.

But suddenly, the stage lights sparked irregularly, flickering light and dark.

The next second, a truss from the side of the stage collapsed and fell straight towards Xia Yangyang.

Terrified screams erupted from the audience below.

Xia Yangyang was deep in thought and didn’t react at first.

The next second, Gu Zhaohan, who had been backstage, rushed up onto the stage.

He threw his body over Xia Yangyang’s.

A muffled groan of pain was heard.

The truss landed squarely on Gu Zhaohan’s back!!

Puren Hospital.

Both Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen were standing outside the emergency room.

Xia Yangyang was sitting in a chair.

Just thinking about the incident made her uncontrollably tremble.

If it weren’t for Gu Zhaohan rushing out and using his body as a human shield, it might have been her in the hospital bed now.

But Xia Yangyang had no idea how severe his condition was.

Gu Qichen was standing at the entrance of the emergency room.

Xia Yangyang could see his silhouette when she raised her head.

So, Gu Qichen had come to their performance and was sitting nearby.

After the incident occurred, Gu Qichen was the first to rush onto the stage and take Gu Zhaohan to the hospital.

If it weren’t for his calmness and decisiveness, Xia Yangyang wouldn’t know what would have happened.

Gu Qichen walked over to Xia Yangyang, grasping her shaking hands: “Don’t worry too much, he should be fine.”

Xia Yangyang looked at Gu Qichen, “But… I’m scared.”

Gu Qichen comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here. I won’t let anything happen to Xiao Han.”

Just then, the emergency room doors swung open.

A doctor, surrounded by a group of nurses, walked out.

Xia Yangyang immediately stood up and ran over, her heart in her throat: “Director Yao, how is Gu Zhaohan?”
