However, that was her first time on stage and performing in front of the public. This concert held a special meaning for Ji Ning. She had a little bit of hope and greed. She hoped that at the most crucial moment in her life, she would be able to share it with the most important person in her life. She hoped that she could become the pride of her sister-in-law.
Ji Ning took a deep breath and tried her best to smile. “It’s alright. I’ll send the performance video to my sister-in-law and the others to watch.”
“Really? So Xiao Ning is already so independent. She doesn’t need her family to come and cheer for her,” Maestro Lin Ran nodded thoughtfully. Then, he looked behind Ji Ning. “Well, some people might have wasted their trip.”
Ji Ning widened her eyes in disbelief and turned around. She saw Shen Hanxing, who had been on a video call with her last night, holding Ji Yan’s arm and standing not far away with a smile on her face. Ji Qian had a big bouquet of roses. She pulled Ji Mo and waved at her excitedly.
“Sister-in-law!” Ji Ning couldn’t help but be overjoyed. She smiled as she ran straight into Shen Hanxing’s arms. “I, I thought sister-in-law wouldn’t come…” Shen Hanxing was still at home when they were on video call yesterday.
!!
“Surprised?” Ji Qian leaned over proudly and stuffed the roses into Ji Ning’s arms. “we flew here early this morning to surprise you. Well, do your best!”
“Xiao Ning, it’s such an important moment. How could we not come here?” Shen Hanxing smiled as she helped Ji Ning tidy up her dress. “Do your best in the performance later.”
Ji Ning’s eyes reddened. She felt an unprecedented sense of happiness. It was great to have her family with her. She was so excited that she couldn’t speak. She placed the roses aside and hugged them each.
Ji Mo wore a suit. His slightly curly hair was neat. He whispered to Ji Ning, “Sis, do your best.”
Ji Ning smiled blissfully and turned to look at the distant and cold Ji Yan. After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively opened her arms. “Big brother…”
Ji Qian, who was standing at the side, gasped. Ji Ning was usually quiet and timid, but now she dared to ask for a hug from her big brother! Ji Ning was bold! Not to mention Ji Qian, even Ji Mo, who was usually calm, couldn’t help but reveal a surprised expression as he stared at this scene in a daze.
Ji Ning had no idea how much of a shock her actions had caused Ji Qian and Ji Mo. There was a shy smile on her face. Her voice was cautious. “Big brother, can you hug me? Give me some courage to go on stage.” That was an important moment in her life. Ji Ning did not know if she would continue to perform on the glorious stage in the future or if she would still be in the mood she was in now. However, she knew well that she wanted affirmation and encouragement from her family.
Ji Yan did not expect Ji Ning to say this. These younger siblings had always been respectful and afraid of him since they were young and rarely interacted with him. Ever since he took over the Ji Corporation, the relationship between him and his siblings became cold. He did not expect that Ji Ning, who seemed to be the least courageous, would take the first step.
Seeing Ji Yan standing where he was, Ji Ning was a little disappointed. She lowered her little head. “It doesn’t matter even if you can’t. I’m delighted that you came to watch my performance…” Before she could finish her sentence, a tall figure enveloped her.
Ji Yan took a step forward, opened his arms, and held Ji Ning in his arms. His usually expressionless face hesitated for a moment. Then, he awkwardly patted Ji Ning’s back. “Perform well.”
Ji Ning’s eyes instantly lit up. “Thank you, brother! I will do my best!”
“Alright, it’s time to get ready to go on stage,” Maestro Lin Ran was happy as he stepped forward and patted Ji Ning on the back. “After the performance is over, you guys can talk.”
Ji Ning grinned as she followed Maestro Lin Ran to make the final preparations before going on stage. Shen Hanxing brought the Ji family’s siblings to the audience seats. Their seats were in the front row. As they passed through the seats, J Qian’s backpack accidentally brushed against the beautiful woman next to her. She hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
The beautiful woman lifted her head impatiently. She looked angry. She spoke fluently in French, “Sorry? What’s the use of apologizing? You… Ji Yan?” When the beautiful woman saw Ji Yan, her eyes instantly lit up.
