73: Chapter 73 Coincidence?
In the cozy, luxurious suite, the women sat around a table.
"What? You want to fund a large-scale concert as a gift to your fiancé?"
Sun Xin颖 and Xu Xiaohong stared with incredulous eyes.
They were stunned by the idea of the little loli in front of them.
What level of fiancé would warrant such a grand display?
"Miss Xu, are you serious?" Xu Xiaohong asked.
Xu Qianqian nodded firmly: "Yes! If possible, I can sign the contract right now!"
Sun Xin颖 and Xu Xiaohong exchanged glances, their eyes filled with surprise.
"Miss Xu, we can accept this contract," Xu Xiaohong said.
If it were purely Sun Xin颖's impulsive idea to hold a concert on her own, Xu Xiaohong certainly couldn't agree.
After all, such vast company resources and traffic were at stake.
It was impossible for her to squander them at will. Everything had to be profit-driven.
Now that a contract was at hand, the company wouldn't make an issue of it.
Then everything would fall into place naturally, and Sun Xin颖's little wish could also be fulfilled.
This was truly a win-win situation.
"Miss Xu, tonight might not work. Tomorrow, I will arrange for a professional to come and sign the contract," Xu Xiaohong said seriously.
She was a rather rigid person; everything had to follow procedure.
Sun Xin颖, on the other hand, seemed a little envious.
Others had lovers who found their happily ever after, while her other half was nowhere to be seen.
"Miss Xu, I truly envy you for having such a beautiful love," Sun Xin颖 said sincerely.
However, Xu Qianqian didn't feel happy because of her words.
Instead, her expression dimmed slightly, and she spoke in a faint voice:
"Xin Ying, what is there to envy about me? If it weren't for my wish, and to give my fiancé a more perfect life..."
"I'm sorry, Miss Xu! Did I say something wrong?" Sun Xin颖 quickly said.
She saw Xu Qianqian's expression, which clearly indicated she had encountered something unpleasant.
She was clearly reopening someone else's wound!
Xu Qianqian wasn't angry; instead, she shook her head and said, "It's nothing, just a lament about the unfairness of fate."
"Miss Xu, if you don't mind, could you tell me your story?" Sun Xin颖 was also someone who admired love.
She could tell that this little loli truly loved her fiancé.
The kind who was willing to give everything for him.
That alone made her worthy of respect!
Xu Qianqian smiled slightly and said in a calm tone, "Actually, there's nothing much to say."
"However, I can show you the charm of my fiancé," Xu Qianqian continued, her eyes filled with affection.
After speaking, she took out her phone, opened the video from the graduation party night.
Then she placed her phone on the table, turned on the speaker, and said:
"Look, this is my fiancé! He's very amazing!"
The two women leaned their heads together, looking at the video on the table.
The next second, the pupils of both women suddenly contracted.
This video, they were more than familiar with it!
Especially Sun Xin颖, who had played it at least dozens of times!
So the two women exclaimed in unison: "Qi Ren Ge!"
Then, Sun Xin颖 suddenly focused her gaze on the Ahri cosplayer.
Then she looked at Xu Qianqian in front of her.
She subconsciously blurted out: "You are that vixen?!"
Xu Qianqian: "???"
Xu Xiaohong: "...Cough cough."
Fortunately, Sun Xin颖 quickly realized her impropriety and reacted:
"I mean, are you that fox coser on stage?"
Xu Qianqian didn't take offense, she nodded faintly and said, "Yes."
"So! Qi Ren Ge is your fiancé?"
"Yes!" Xu Qianqian nodded again.
Sun Xin颖 clenched her fists. How could Qi Ren Ge be worthy of this little loli? His songs were even given to him by others!
Sun Xin颖 momentarily forgot that her songs were also given to her by her Brother Xiao.
A truly internationally renowned double standard.
"Qi Ren Ge is indeed very capable, but for you to fancy him, that's his good fortune accumulated over eight lifetimes!"
Angry as she was, it's better to tear down a temple than to ruin a marriage.
She would never speak ill of people behind their backs; she still had that much morality.
Xu Qianqian didn't answer, and her expression grew even dimmer.
It wasn't until her eyes became moist that she forcibly suppressed the urge to cry and spoke:
"But... Xiao Ran Gege... he... he's about to leave this world..."
"Boom!"
Xu Qianqian's words, like a bolt from the blue, struck Sun Xin颖.
Leaving her stunned in place.
That seemingly familiar name...!
Even Xu Xiaohong, beside her, became tense.
"Xiao... Xiao Ran? You... you said his name is Xiao Ran?" Sun Xin颖 asked, her voice trembling slightly.
Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran, isn't that Ran Xiao spelled backward?
She was exceptionally sensitive to any combination of characters with these two pronunciations.
"Yes, his name is Xiao Ran. Is there a problem?" Xu Qianqian asked, her eyes slightly red and filled with confusion.
She didn't know why Sun Xin颖 had become so flustered.
This was already the second time!
Just now, she had excitedly called her a vixen!
"No, it's nothing, it's just that a friend of mine is very similar to him," Sun Xin颖 had already forced herself to calm down.
That Xiao Ran had already said that he was Ran Xiao's good brother, both from the same orphanage.
It was perfectly normal for good brothers to have similar names, right?
Yes! Very reasonable!
Understandable!
Xu Qianqian nodded, said nothing more, and continued to steer the conversation back to Xiao Ran.
"The reason I wanted to invite you to hold this concert is actually to spend the last part of Xiao Ran's life with him," Xu Qianqian said in a low voice.
The other two women exchanged glances upon hearing her words.
They felt like they had seen this script somewhere before!
But they didn't interrupt her.
It was very impolite to ask unfamiliar people about their illness or how long they had to live.
If she wanted to talk about it, she would naturally do so.
"He has cancer! And it's late-stage brain cancer!" Xu Qianqian suddenly covered her face and began to cry.
"Wuwuwu~"
Even now, she still seemed unable to accept this fact.
Little did she know, her beloved Xiao Ran.
Was currently lying comfortably in another girl's bed.
He even turned over comfortably.
And now.
There were two other people.
Who had also fallen into some terrifying memory, unable to extricate themselves.
Sun Xin颖 no longer paid attention to Xu Qianqian's state.
She herself had even fallen into darkness.
"Ran Xiao... Xiao Ran! Cancer... brain cancer... late stage! Is it a coincidence?" she murmured to herself.
She felt as if something flashed through her mind.
As if she was on the verge of a sudden realization.
But it also seemed to be blocked by something.
That feeling of being just one step away!
She was in disarray!
She wasn't stupid; she had already thought of a certain possibility!
She just couldn't definitively prove something!
She urgently wanted to find the answer!
