Playboy: Medical and Martial Master

Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The Goddess Takes the Stage!

Because all the lights were focused on the stage, and everyone’s attention was on it, no one noticed that a major celebrity had already arrived in the seating area.

Xie Yunwan covered her mouth and laughed softly, saying to Sun Zhe, ”Speaking of your sister, I think I heard Zhishan mention her before. She said your sister is a student at Boli Music Academy.”

Sun Zhe nodded. ”She’s currently a sophomore, mainly studying piano.”

”Hmm... studying piano is quite nice. I learned piano back in the day, too. In that sense, I suppose I’m her senior.”

Sun Zhe laughed, ”What a coincidence.”

Xie Yunwan thought for a moment and then suddenly said, ”By the way, you should send her my WeChat contact.”

Sun Zhe was surprised. ”Can I really do that?”

”Why not?” Xie Yunwan smiled faintly. ”She wants to enter the entertainment industry, right?”

Sun Zhe nodded. ”She wants to be like you and sees you as her goal.”

Xie Yunwan chuckled. ”But the entertainment industry is a messy place. It’s not that easy to make it.”

Sun Zhe said, ”It is indeed messy. Although I don’t know much about it, I’ve read some exposés online.”

Xie Yunwan sighed. ”To survive in the great dyeing vat of the entertainment industry, you either need the support of established figures or a powerful family background. Otherwise, in the eyes of those capitalists, your talent and looks only serve to heighten their desire to conquer you.”

As she spoke, she glanced at Sun Zhe’s handsome profile and added, ”Especially for girls.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe nodded slightly and gave Xie Yunwan a deep look filled with gratitude.

He had already understood her implication—she wanted to help Ye Qiao.

”Thank you, Sister Yunwan. I’ll have to ask you to look after Qiaoqiao in the future.”

”What are you thanking me for? I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn’t healed my face, the rest of my life would have been ruined.”

Sun Zhe smiled. ”How about this? When you go on stage to sing later, I’ll record a video and send it to her first. Then I’ll forward her your WeChat.”

”Okay, sounds good.”

Time passed, minute by minute. On stage, as Zhu Yan and the members of the R&D team left, the sexy and beautiful female host walked back to the center.

Down in the audience, Xie Yunwan suddenly said to Sun Zhe, ”I should go backstage to prepare. See you in a bit.”

”Okay, see you in a bit.”

Shortly after, the stage lights suddenly went out, plunging the venue into complete darkness.

When a brilliant spotlight shone down again, Xie Yunwan, clad in a white chiffon dress, appeared at the center of the stage. She wasn’t holding a microphone but was wearing a headset, and she had already struck a dance pose, clearly ready to perform.

Then, more beams of light shot down one after another, revealing the backup dancers behind her. Everyone on stage, including Xie Yunwan, held different dance poses, perfectly still, as if time itself had frozen. The scene was breathtakingly beautiful.

”Goddess!”

”Goddess!”

”Goddess!”

”...”

Suddenly, a thunderous cheer erupted from the audience.

Many of the men in the crowd leaped to their feet, pumping their fists in the air, their eyes glued to the stage, captivated by the beautiful, stocking-clad legs. At that moment, not even the arrival of the Jade Emperor himself could have broken their trance.

This was clearly just a commercial gala, but the atmosphere was as electric as a major concert. It was evident just how much thought Xie Yunwan had put into the product she had invested in and was endorsing.

A moment later, as the dynamic music started, the audience fell silent in perfect unison.

Sitting in the front row, Sun Zhe watched Xie Yunwan singing and dancing on stage, looking both gorgeous and fiercely charismatic, and couldn’t help but sigh in silent admiration.

Previously, the lighting in the audience had been too dim for him to notice, but now that she was under the stage lights, he realized that Xie Yunwan was truly a rare and stunning beauty. Her white chiffon dress was reminiscent of a wedding gown but lacked its sacred and noble aura, instead exuding an ultimate sense of pure-faced seduction. The puffy skirt was quite short, revealing her straight, slender legs clad in sheer stockings. A large bow with long ribbons was tied at the small of her back, the fabric trailing down to her ankles and flowing beautifully with her graceful, lively dance moves. It was a mesmerizing sight.

”Pretty, isn’t she?”

Just as Sun Zhe was lost in quiet admiration, Zhu Yan’s voice suddenly came from his side.

Sun Zhe chuckled and answered honestly, ”She’s a true star. Look at that presence, that aura—absolutely flawless. No wonder everyone calls her a goddess.”

As he spoke, he suddenly froze, his body going rigid. Zhu Yan’s hand had pinched his waist.

He forced a slight smile and added, ”But compared to my queen at home, she still falls just a little short.”

Hearing this, Zhu Yan snorted and finally released her grip. ”Not bad. Your survival instinct is sharp.”

Sun Zhe didn’t dare say another word. He quickly took out his phone, recorded a short video, and sent it to Ye Qiao.

Just a few seconds later, Ye Qiao replied with three ”shocked” emojis, followed by three ”going crazy” emojis.

”Bro, is this a Xie Yunwan concert?!”

”You went to a concert?”

”Sun Zhe, how could you not invite me!”

”I hate you!”

”Just wait until I get home, I’ll make you pay!”

”Ahhh, I’m too excited to sleep now!”

”I order you to climb the school wall and come apologize to me right now!”

”...”

Beaming, Sun Zhe showed the phone to Zhu Yan. She took it, read the chat history, and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Then, Sun Zhe forwarded Xie Yunwan’s WeChat contact to Ye Qiao with a message: ”Qiaoqiao, this is your idol’s WeChat. Your big brother dares you to add her.”

A few seconds later, Ye Qiao replied: ”Are you kidding me?”

Sun Zhe: ”I’m not!”

Ye Qiao: ”Sun Wukong, is this really Xie Yunwan’s WeChat?!”

Sun Zhe: ”Why don’t you add her and find out for yourself? Can’t chat now, I’m busy.”

”...”

Time passed slowly.

Xie Yunwan sang four songs in a row before leaving the stage. The host then returned to the center to continue the event.

Just then, Li Zhishan patted Sun Zhe’s arm. ”It’s over. Let’s go to the third floor for dinner.”

Not long after, led by Li Zhishan, Sun Zhe and his group took the elevator to the third floor and entered a secluded, luxurious private room.

Inside the room, at a large round table laden with all sorts of delicacies and expensive liquors, Sun Zhe’s eyes immediately landed on Xie Yunwan. She was sitting there, engrossed in her phone, probably chatting with Ye Qiao. She had slipped away to the third floor and hidden in this room right after leaving the stage.

Soon, once all the members of the R&D team were seated, Li Zhishan suddenly stood up and raised her glass.

”To sum up, the fact that our ’QiaoYan’ is so popular and achieved a staggering five hundred million in pre-sales on the first day is all thanks to everyone here!”

”Of course, it’s even more thanks to the miraculous effects of the ’QiaoYan’ mask itself!”

”You could say it’s a godsend for the women of our generation!”

”I hope that in the coming days, our Shanyu Company can create miracles and ascend to the throne of the industry!”

”...”

Her passionate speech was met with a round of enthusiastic applause.

Li Zhishan continued, ”But here today, the person we should thank the most is our President Sun!”

”If it weren’t for President Sun, there would be no ’QiaoYan’ in this world!”

As she finished, all eyes turned to Sun Zhe, burning with admiration.

Sun Zhe felt a little awkward, but since he was among mostly familiar faces, he wasn’t too embarrassed.

”Come on, let’s toast President Sun!”

”One toast isn’t enough! We should each do at least three rounds with him!”

”Hahahaha...”

”President Sun, I’ll drink mine first!”

”...”

Li Zhishan was clearly doing this on purpose. At her instigation, everyone started toasting Sun Zhe one after another.

Even Zhu Yan raised her glass to him.

Since it was a joyous occasion, Sun Zhe didn’t want to be a killjoy, so he had no choice but to tilt his head back and down each glass.

Amidst the clinking of glasses, the alcohol began to take its toll. Sun Zhe felt dizzy and overwhelmed, unable to continue, and finally collapsed onto the table.

Seeing this, Li Zhishan quickly had an assistant help him to a resting room on the fourth floor. Then she said to Zhu Yan, ”Sister Yan, let’s ignore this lightweight. He’s down after just a few drinks.”

”Let’s keep going. When we’re done here, we’ll head over to my place. Director Liu and Director Jiang are coming too!”

”Alright, let’s drink to our hearts’ content tonight!” Zhu Yan was in high spirits and grew quite boisterous.

”Um... if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be leaving now.”

Unexpectedly, Xie Yunwan suddenly stood up and said apologetically to the group, ”I have a tight schedule tomorrow. Please, you all enjoy yourselves. We can drink together some other time.”

Li Zhishan gave her a meaningful look. ”Alright then, we won’t keep our big star from her important business.”

She heavily emphasized the words ”important business,” with a clear hidden meaning.

However, only Xie Yunwan understood its true implication.

After leaving the private room, Xie Yunwan put on a mask and took the elevator up to the resting area on the fourth floor.

As she thought about what was about to happen with Sun Zhe, about finally experiencing the ”big guy” that Li Zhishan was always bragging about, she suddenly felt a wave of nervousness.
