164: Chapter 164 After the Concert
The fans below were shouting wildly, and Su Yingxue waved the light stick in her hand.
The concert officially began, and G.E.M. Deng Ziqi took the lead by singing "Bubble." As the familiar melody played, the fans in the audience joined in a chorus.
Her live vocals were indeed as legendary as they said, just like the recording, or even more infectious. Su Yingxue sang along from the side.
Immediately after, G.E.M. Deng Ziqi performed hit songs like "A.I.N.Y.," "I Like You," and "Tornado," each song triggering a venue-wide sing-along.
In the middle of the show, she also performed live on the piano and drums. Her skilled technique amazed the entire audience, and the applause and cheers from below never stopped.
As the songs progressed, the fans turned on their light sticks one after another. The entire stadium was instantly transformed into a sea of neon, with colorful light sticks flickering.
Su Yingxue looked at the sea of neon before her and then at the radiant G.E.M. Deng Ziqi on stage. Her heart was filled with awe, and she couldn't help but take out her phone to take photos, recording this unforgettable moment.
"Chen Mo, this sea of light is so beautiful, and G.E.M. Deng Ziqi's singing is so wonderful!" Su Yingxue turned to Chen Mo and said happily.
"I'm glad you like it. It was worth the trip."
Chen Mo looked at her and said with a smile:
"Look how much she's putting into it. She's truly a singer worthy of your admiration."
As the concert drew to a close, G.E.M. Deng Ziqi sat at the piano, slowly playing "The Continent." As the gentle melody rose, the fans below gradually quieted down, humming along softly.
After finishing the song, G.E.M. Deng Ziqi picked up the microphone nearby and said to the fans:
"Thank you, everyone. Thank you for your support throughout the year. Today is the final stop of my 2014 Tour. I'm very happy to have you all here. I hope we all get better and better in the days to come. See you next time!"
The fans shouted one after another, reluctant to see G.E.M. Deng Ziqi leave.
After the concert ended, the fans began to leave the venue. Su Yingxue said with a face full of reluctance:
"Chen Mo, the concert was so wonderful. I haven't seen enough yet; I want to see another one."
"There will be more chances in the future. When she has her next tour, I'll bring you again."
Chen Mo held her hand and walked slowly toward the exit of the stadium:
"I'll take you to meet her, to fulfill your wish."
"Really?"
Su Yingxue looked at Chen Mo and asked.
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?"
Chen Mo nodded with a smile.
Su Yingxue nodded and smiled as she held onto Chen Mo's arm.
The two followed the staff backstage. It was very busy there, with staff members rushing to pack up equipment. G.E.M. Deng Ziqi was sitting on a sofa in the lounge area, drinking water and resting.
Hearing footsteps, G.E.M. Deng Ziqi looked up. Seeing Chen Mo and Su Yingxue, she stood up with a polite smile and asked:
"Hello, may I ask who you are?"
Su Yingxue stood by Chen Mo's side and said happily to G.E.M. Deng Ziqi:
"Hello! G.E.M. Deng Ziqi, we are your fans. We came to hear your concert."
Chen Mo nodded:
"I am Chen Mo, and this is Su Yingxue. I troubled the staff to let her come see you."
Hearing this, G.E.M. Deng Ziqi smiled and nodded, walking over to the two of them:
"Hello, thank you for coming to my concert."
Su Yingxue looked at her and said with a smile:
"Your songs are beautiful. The live performance has even more feeling than the recordings."
G.E.M. Deng Ziqi smiled:
"Thank you for the compliment. Would you like to take a photo together?"
"Yes."
Su Yingxue nodded and stood beside G.E.M. Deng Ziqi.
Chen Mo picked up his phone and quickly took a few photos.
G.E.M. Deng Ziqi kept a smile for the photos.
Chen Mo put away his phone, took off his mask, and said to G.E.M. Deng Ziqi:
"Can I take a photo with you too?"
When G.E.M. Deng Ziqi saw Chen Mo's face after he removed his mask, she felt like she had seen him somewhere before!
Watching Chen Mo walk toward her, she looked at him in shock, her eyes wide with surprise:
"Mr. Chen!"
Chen Mo nodded with a smile.
Just then, a commotion came from the backstage entrance. Two tall men ignored the staff's attempts to stop them and rushed in, shouting "G.E.M. Deng Ziqi, I love you" as they lunged directly at her.
The staff couldn't stop them, and their faces paled. G.E.M. Deng Ziqi was also stunned and instinctively took a step back.
Su Yingxue paused slightly and immediately leaned closer to Chen Mo's side.
Chen Mo's expression didn't change, but the aura around him instantly turned cold. Before the two men could get close, he stepped forward, blocking them from G.E.M. Deng Ziqi and Su Yingxue. He raised his hands and pressed down on their shoulders with such force that the two men stopped instantly.
"Get out."
Chen Mo barked coldly. The pressure he emitted made the two men not dare to move again.
The backstage staff hurriedly stepped forward and restrained the two men.
G.E.M. Deng Ziqi came to her senses and said gratefully to Chen Mo:
"Thank you, Mr. Chen. Thank you so much for just now."
Chen Mo looked back at G.E.M. Deng Ziqi and said:
"It's nothing, just a small favor."
Then, he said to Su Yingxue:
"It didn't scare you, did it?"
"No."
Su Yingxue shook her head gently and said with a smile.
Soon, security personnel arrived and took the two men away. Order was restored backstage.
G.E.M. Deng Ziqi walked quickly to Chen Mo, her hands slightly clasped. Her tone was full of sincere gratitude, and her posture was somewhat respectful:
"Mr. Chen, thank you so much today. If it weren't for you just now, I definitely would have been hurt. Thank you so much for stepping in to help."
Chen Mo raised his hand, gave hers a brief squeeze, and then withdrew it, saying with a smile:
"You've already thanked me. You don't need to take it to heart."
Su Yingxue stood to the side and said:
"It's good that you're okay. These kinds of fanatical fans are indeed hard to guard against. You should pay more attention to your safety in the future."
G.E.M. Deng Ziqi nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, I understand. Thank you so much, Mr. Chen and Miss Su."
"Thanks to you tonight, and I have nothing to repay you with. I'd like to invite you for a late-night snack as a small token of my appreciation. I wonder if Mr. Chen would do me the honor?"
Chen Mo looked at Su Yingxue with a questioning look in his eyes. Su Yingxue nodded gently and said with a smile:
"That sounds good. We haven't had a late-night snack yet anyway."
Seeing that Su Yingxue had no objection, Chen Mo turned back to G.E.M. Deng Ziqi and said:
"Alright, then we'll trouble you."
G.E.M. Deng Ziqi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said happily:
"It's no trouble at all. It's my honor to be able to invite Mr. Chen and Miss Su for a late-night snack."
