Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day Novel - Chapter 940

Chapter 940: CEO Jun Appears at the New Year’s Eve Gala

As the days approached New Year’s Day, the entire capital was filled with joy. There was already a very obvious festive atmosphere on the streets and alleys.

Xia Wanyuan drove past the city center. The fiery red festive decorations outside the window made one’s mood better.

“Yuan Yuan, this is delicious. Try this.” An Rao, who was in the front passenger seat, took advantage of the time when they were waiting for the red light to eat the sour plum jerky and handed one to Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan opened her mouth to bite it, then frowned. “So sour.”

“Sour?” An Rao chewed. “No, I don’t think it’s sour enough.”

Xia Wanyuan glanced helplessly at An Rao’s stomach. “I think Xiao Bao’s hopes of having a younger sister are dashed.”

“It’s okay. He’ll have a younger sister in the future.” An Rao touched her stomach.

Under Xia Wanyuan’s guidance, she had thought things through.

No news was the best news. No matter what the outcome was, the most important thing for her now was to give birth to Bo Xiao’s child safely.

“Is Nanny Li taking good care of you?” The light turned green and Xia Wanyuan started the car again.

…

An Rao refused to come to the manor to live together. Xia Wanyuan was worried that it would be inconvenient for her to live while pregnant, so she asked Nanny Li to take care of her.

“Pretty good.” An Rao looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Sister, you’re so good.”

If Xia Wanyuan was not by her side during this period of time, she did not know what she would do.

Xia Wanyuan sent An Rao to the entrance of the hospital and handed her to Shen Xiu.

An Rao’s heck up would take about an hour or two. Xia Wanyuan turned around and prepared to return to the car to wait for her. Just as she went down the stairs, someone bumped into her from somewhere.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” The person who bumped into Xia Wanyuan was a very young woman. Her almond-shaped eyes were bright, and she was very surprised to see Xia Wanyuan. “Miss Xia? I’m your fan. I’m really sorry. I didn’t hurt you, right?”

Xia Wanyuan waved her hand. “It’s nothing.”

Coincidentally, Chen Yun called at this moment. Xia Wanyuan returned to the car.

“Wanyuan, if you have nothing on in the afternoon, come to Strawberry TV Station. Today is the last rehearsal before the official performance.”

“Okay, I’ll go over in the afternoon.”

After hanging up the phone, Xia Wanyuan focused on reading.

She had been dismissed as a professor at the Qing University’s literature department, but she had promised her students that she would return to that podium.

Next time, she would make everyone acknowledge her qualifications as a professor.

An Rao’s condition was very stable. Hearing Xia Wanyuan say that she was going to rehearse in the afternoon, An Rao became interested and followed Xia Wanyuan to the gala.

The last rehearsal was completely according to the specifications of the official performance.

“Sister, you’re beautiful!” An Rao was wrapped up like a dumpling. She sat closest to the stage and watched Xia Wanyuan’s sparkling performance on stage. An Rao could not help but shout at her and cheer her on.

“Pfft, where did this country bumpkin come from? Why are you shouting?” A piercing female voice suddenly sounded from behind An Rao.

An Rao knew that the place where Xia Wanyuan was performing was cold. She rummaged through the house and found the military coat Bo Xiao had left behind. Anyway, the most important thing for her now was to protect the baby in her stomach. She had already lost her image.

From behind, An Rao was wrapped in a military coat and had a furry hat on her head. Under the dim light, she was indeed not as eye-catching as the fashionable hot girls with exposed thighs and shoulders.

An Rao had never been called a bumpkin in her life. At first, she did not think of herself at all and continued to cheer Xia Wanyuan on.

“Haha, I’m dying of laughter. Good luck? Look at her coat. It’s similar to the one my grandfather wore.”

“My grandfather had one too. My grandfather found it ugly and donated it.”

Only then did An Rao react. She looked around. Other than her, no one else was wearing a military coat.

An Rao was furious and turned around. “Who are you calling a bumpkin?”

The two young ladies, who were still whispering, stopped talking when they saw An Rao’s stunning face.

At this moment, Xia Wanyuan had already completed her rehearsal and walked over with the same coat design as An Rao.

Watching Xia Wanyuan and An Rao leave, the young ladies, who had been complaining about them being country bumpkins, looked at each other.

She suddenly felt that her grandfather was also a fashionable person.

Not long after, a photo of Xia Wanyuan and An Rao in military coats appeared on the Internet. Through the clues in the photo, the fans suddenly realized that this background looked so similar to the New Year’s Eve rehearsal venue that others had posted.

Strawberry TV Station, which had been hiding the news for a long time, finally stood up after Xia Wanyuan and An Rao’s coat photos leaked out and announced to the public that Xia Wanyuan would join the New Year Gala.

The day before the New Year’s Eve party, this explosive news was suddenly announced. Without a doubt, from that night until the next day, the entire Weibo hot search was dominated by this news. Strawberry TV Station’s New Year’s Eve party also attracted a lot of attention.

This was the first time Xia Wanyuan had participated in a modern New Year’s Eve party. From eight in the morning, Mu Feng had brought a professional team to style Xia Wanyuan until six in the afternoon. Chen Yun drove Xia Wanyuan to the party venue.

At the door, the audience had formed a long line. The ticket booth was about to open.

The crowd was dense and noisy. Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, a black car suddenly drove slowly towards the VIP passageway.

Initially, everyone was just curious to see who could take the VIP passageway. However, when the person in the car walked out, the crowd instantly fell silent. They could vaguely hear the sound of people sucking in cold air.

Only when the cold figure disappeared into the passageway did the quiet crowd become active again.

“That’s Jun Shiling, right?! F*ck!! Would a god-like figure like him come to watch the gala?!”

“I can already predict how the viewership ratings of Strawberry TV Station will explode tonight. They actually managed to invite Jun Shiling. Strawberry TV Station is really amazing.”

The station leaders were also stunned when they heard the employee’s report. They hurriedly ran out to welcome him.

Backstage, the staff had already begun the final verification. At this critical moment, something happened to Xia Wanyuan’s dance team.

Seeing Xia Wanyuan and Chen Yun come over, the person-in-charge went forward to welcome them. “Have you prepared backup dancers? Your dancers just lost their footing and fell down the stairs. Two of them have already been sent to the hospital.”

An exquisite performance required the singer and dancers to work together countless times. Now, even if the dancers were changed again, it would be useless. Not only would a lousy cooperation not be able to remedy the situation, but it would also make things worse.
