Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Lu Xiao slapped Su Ren speechlessly, "Don't scare him away."

Su Ren glanced at Si Yuan and said, "Tsk, this ethereal beauty probably already has a boyfriend."

Lu Xiao smiled smugly, "I've investigated, she's single now."

Su Ren's eyes widened in disbelief. "Holy crap? You're serious?"

Si Yuan sat quietly in the chair watching the process, which made everyone feel comfortable and at ease.

Lu Xiao couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile. "Do you know why I was able to create [Muse]?"

【Muse】is a song that Lu Xiao composed and wrote himself while he was abroad.

When he played the demo for the other members, they were all stunned.

They all knew that Lu Xiao was a very talented person; several of the songs he had written before were very popular.

But no song is more soul-stirring than "Muse".

Su Ren looked at Si Yuan in disbelief—

Lu Xiao nodded, "Yes, it's because of Si Yuan. The first time I saw her was in a group photo. Fireworks were blooming behind her, and she was smiling happily. That scene... touched my heart..."

Lu Xiao immediately wrote the lyrics and music for [Muse].

Even after staying up all night, I was still very excited.

I wanted to get information about Si Yuan from Jiang Zhe, but my cousin wouldn't reveal a single word.

Later, he had someone investigate Si Yuan and learned that she was the daughter of the Si family and had been jilted by the Xiang family.

And quite a few people are pursuing her.

Lu Xiao was extremely anxious while abroad, but he could only return after completing his overseas tour.

Coincidentally, I ran into her as soon as I returned to China.

What else could this be but a destiny ordained by heaven?

"Lu Xiao..."

Hearing Si Yuan call his name, Lu Xiao immediately got up and ran over, "What's wrong? Si Yuan..."

Si Yuan's expression stiffened. Lu Xiao realized that his address had been too intimate and chuckled, "I'll call you A Yuan. You don't mind, do you?"

Si Yuan thought of people who play rock music, who are uninhibited, passionate, and direct, so she nodded and said, "Okay."

Lu Xiao smiled happily.

Su Ren: "..."

He realized that Lu Xiao was so infatuated with Si Yuan that he had forgotten who he was.

"Ah Yuan, what do you want?"

"You just said that my approach to hosting a music festival isn't suitable, so how should I host it?"

Since there is a problem, we should communicate actively.

Si Yuan hopes the music festival will go smoothly, that the bands will have a great time, and that the fans will enjoy themselves – that's what she, as the host, should do.

"Music festivals are for having fun and having a good time. You're being too serious right now, and your outfit isn't really suitable..."

Si Yuan was wearing a white halter-neck dress, an outfit suitable for hosting large-scale galas, but too formal for a music festival.

"What should I wear?"

Lu Xiao snapped his fingers. "Leave it to me."

Lu Xiao quickly had a set of clothes brought to him, a black, fluffy short skirt.

"Put it on, and the stylist will change your makeup and hairstyle later, and you'll be all set."

Si Yuan didn't understand, but she did as instructed.

However, after changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Si Yuan looked at herself in the mirror and almost didn't recognize herself.

She usually doesn't wear makeup, or if she does, it's the lightest makeup she can wear.

Moreover, her closet is full of elegant and sophisticated dresses; she has never worn clothes with this gothic style before.

Si Yuan was slightly embarrassed. "Is...is this really okay?"

Lu Xiao's eyes widened, and he was speechless.

The other four members of the band gave a thumbs-up in unison: "Perfect."

Fans entered the venue one after another. Si Yuan secretly peeked out from backstage and saw that this was much bigger than the scene at school.

Are you nervous?

Lu Xiao, having finished his makeup, came to Si Yuan's side. Dressed in red, he appeared even more flamboyant and energetic.

Si Yuan smiled and said, "It's alright."

Lu Xiao: "Would you like me to teach you a way to overcome nervousness?"

Si Yuan was indeed much calmer than she had imagined, but Lu Xiao seemed eager to teach her, so she couldn't refuse.

"it is good."

"Try this... write the word 'nervous' on your hand... then swallow it, and you won't be nervous anymore..."

As he spoke, Lu Xiao held the book tightly in his hand and even made a swallowing motion.

Si Yuan: "..."

Seeing Si Yuan's complicated expression, Lu Xiao felt a little strange. Wait a minute, wasn't Su Ren quite successful at flirting with girls last time?

Why isn't Si Yuan reacting?

At this moment, Lu Xiao had no idea that he was standing in front of a master of seduction.

His tricks are things Si Yuan already knew from when she was in elementary school.

"This method really works, you should try it..."

Lu Xiao's eyes were very clear, and he looked like a precious child who had been pampered by his family.

No one can refuse a sincere person. As soon as Si Yuan made a move, four people not far away burst into thunderous laughter.

Su Ren mocked Lu Xiao relentlessly, "Young Master Lu, are you a primary school student? Why are you putting on this act?"

Lu Xiao's forehead veins throbbed with rage as he charged past Su Ren in a fit of anger and embarrassment.

The two were playfully bickering and having a lot of fun.

Si Yuan looked at them and thought it was really nice...

My phone suddenly rang; it was a WeChat message from Gu Yinhe.

"Ah Yuan, Xingzhu and I have arrived. We'll be sitting in the first row."

Gu Yinhe posted a photo, a picture of the two of them together.

Whether it was for the occasion or something else, the two of them wore exaggerated makeup, and even had small portraits of the five members of the band Raven Ash pasted on their faces.

"I brought several cameras today, I'm going to take lots of pictures later..."

Si Yuan smiled and replied with a WeChat message, "Have fun."

Si Yuan knows that different hosting styles are appropriate for different occasions.

As soon as the music festival started, she immediately put on a cheerful smile and ran out of the venue.

The fans were also surprised to find that the host was such a beautiful young lady, and they screamed enthusiastically.

"ah--"

"Ah Yuan—"

"My darling, look here..."

Gu Yinhe and Shen Xingzhu sat in the first row.

The two shouted with all their might, their voices standing out so loudly that it was hard for Si Yuan not to notice.

Si Yuan smiled at the two of them, then regained her composure and began hosting the event.

Actually, this kind of hosting is the most relaxed because the focus is all on the band.

They sing, and the fans listen.

Si Yuan was just in charge of controlling the situation.

The first song by the band Raven Ashes was naturally a rock song.

Si Yuan had heard their songs before, but she didn't expect that listening to them through headphones was completely different from listening to them live.

The five people in the audience didn't seem very reliable.

But once they took the stage, each one had their own unique charm.

Si Yuan finally understood how those fangirls felt.

After singing five songs in a row, a fan interaction session was arranged to give everyone a break.

Lu Xiao is very enthusiastic and generous to his fans; he will do whatever they ask for.

He would even grant requests to make funny faces.

The band will perform a total of thirteen songs.

After singing five songs, Lu Xiao would take a break.

During the second break, he said he was going to perform a magic trick for everyone.

This is one of Lu Xiao's biggest hobbies, which is why his fans all know it.

"Next, I'd like to ask the host, Ms. A Yuan, for a favor."

Si Yuan didn't know what Lu Xiao was going to do, but she still cooperated and went over.

Lu Xiao handed the ribbon that was originally hanging from his hip to Si Yuan, "Please check for me, this is indeed a silk scarf, isn't it?"

Fans shouted, "Miss host, please check carefully and don't let him off easy!"

Si Yuan did indeed examine it very carefully. "Yes, it's a silk scarf."

"Now...you hand me the silk scarf yourself..."

Si Yuan placed the silk scarf in Lu Xiao's hand. Lu Xiao looked like he had been pulled out of the water, his face and neck covered in sweat.

But he was still full of energy.

He crumpled the silk scarf into a ball and held it in his hand, then reached behind Si Yuan's head.

Lu Xiao, who was radiating heat, suddenly approached. Si Yuan instinctively flinched back, but Lu Xiao grabbed her arm. "Don't move."

Si Yuan: "..."

Lu Xiao withdrew his hand and smiled at the fans, "Guess what I have in my hand now?"

"It's definitely a silk scarf. It can't possibly conjure a flower out of thin air, can it?"

Lu Xiao smiled mysteriously, "Alright, now is the moment to witness a miracle."

He reached out and took the silk scarf out little by little, but when it was all out, the silk scarf in his hand suddenly turned into a delicate and beautiful rose.

The fans were very supportive, exclaiming, "Wow...she really produced a rose! Xiaoxiao is amazing!"

"Xiaoxiao truly lives up to his title as the Magic Prince; he's amazing."

"Xiaoxiao, if you can't sing anymore, go do magic tricks."

Si Yuan: "..."

To be honest, she stopped playing those magic tricks on little girls when she was in kindergarten.

However, fans can just ignore the hype and let Lu Xiao be happy.

Suddenly, the rose was handed to Si Yuan. "Thank you for your hard work today, Miss Host. This flower is for you."

Si Yuan knew Lu Xiao; he would perform magic tricks on stage during every performance, and whatever he conjured up, he would give it to his fans.

But why did I give it to her today, and why are they red roses?

Refusing Lu Xiao would definitely make him lose face.

This is not something a host should do.

Hearing the commotion, Si Yuan smiled and accepted the roses, "Thank you, Lu Xiao..."

She then looked at the fans below the stage, "Everyone knows that Lu Xiao is a very lucky person. He gave me this luck today, so I'll pass it on to you, the band Ai Ya Jin..."

As she spoke, Si Yuan tossed the roses in her hand to her fans.

Seeing that someone had received it, Si Yuan smiled and said, "Little beauty, from now on you will have a smooth and lucky life. This is the blessing from the entire Raven Ashes band to you."

The girl who received the roses cried and screamed.

"Lu Xiao, I love you—"

"Raven's Ashes Band, I love you guys—"

Immediately afterwards, everyone shouted.

"Lu Xiao—"

"Raven's Ashes Band -"

"Lu Xiao—"

"Raven's Ashes Band -"

Seeing this, Si Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

That rose was a gift from Lu Xiao to Si Yuan, but he didn't expect Si Yuan to give it to a fan, and he felt somewhat disappointed.

He used "hard work" as an excuse, but she still didn't accept it.

After composing himself, Lu Xiao stood in front of the microphone and said, "My darlings, the last song is a slow song called [Muse]."

"When I was writing this song, there was a girl in my mind, she is my muse—"

Lu Xiao looked intently at Si Yuan at the edge of the stage.

Si Yuan frowned. Was it just her imagination?

I have a feeling that Lu Xiao has been looking at her a lot today, which is a bit beyond the bounds of social interaction.

However, the next second, Lu Xiao looked at the audience and shouted to the enthusiastic fans: "Every fan here and every fan who isn't here, you are all my muses. This song is dedicated to you..."

Upon hearing this, Si Yuan smiled, realizing that she had indeed been overthinking things.

The muse Lu Xiao mentioned is his fan, which is correct.

The atmosphere inside the venue was high-spirited, but the atmosphere inside the car on the Shangjing Bridge, dozens of kilometers away, was somewhat somber.

Lan Hai glanced at President Bo in the back seat through the rearview mirror, then quietly looked away.

Since separating from Miss Si, President Bo has never smiled again.

Bo Yusen looked down at his phone; his entire WeChat Moments feed was dominated by Gu Yinhe.

"Ahhhhh—our A-Yuan is so beautiful, cool, and cute! This new style is absolutely stunning... [Nine-grid photo collage + beautiful photos of Si Yuan from various angles.]"

"Lu Xiao's singing is so-so, all that shouting is driving me crazy. [Nine-grid photo collage + unflattering photos of Lu Xiao from various angles.]"

"Ah Yuan is still prettier—Lu Xiao, you're blocking my view of Ah Yuan—[Nine-grid photo + selfie]"

"Lu Xiao, how dare you! You actually sent roses to Si Yuan! Luckily, Si Yuan is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she passed on the roses and good fortune to her fans... [Nine-grid photo + Lu Xiao performing magic to give Si Yuan roses, and a photo of Si Yuan receiving the roses.]"

"Hey—I was a little too loud earlier, but Lu Xiao's rendition of 'Muse' was pretty good... [Nine-grid photo collage + photos of Lu Xiao and Si Yuan.]"

"But I'd love to hear A-Yuan sing this song even more. I wonder if this wish can be fulfilled—I'm giving this crazy hint and tagging A-Yuan like crazy—"
