âI didnât ask them to come.â
âIs that okay⦠itâs GKâs 30-year anniversary, it must be important to them.â Huo Mian was a little surprised.
âMy dad didnât want to come, because he didnât want my mom to cause a scene⦠so neither of them came.â
âIâm sorry.â Huo Mian felt bad and reached out to tightly grasp Qin Chuâs hand.
âWhy are you apologizing?â Qin Chu looked at her tenderly.
âIf it werenât for me, you and your parentsâ relationship wouldnât be as tense⦠and they wouldâve come to the 30-year-anniversary party.â
âDonât apologize, dummy⦠Iâm willing to endure blame from the entire world for youâ¦â
Qin Chu never thought what Huo Mian did was wrongâ¦
Plus, it wasnât that he treated his parents badly or was unfilial to themâ¦
Their relationship was a bit tense, thatâs allâ¦
His father had now understood and accepted Huo Mian, so he didnât want to bring upon negative news to the corporation.
Qin Yumin took a plane to the United States today, and his wife wreaked havoc at home, crying and causing a disturbanceâ¦
She even wanted to go to the anniversary party, but Qin Chu arranged for his mother to be kept at home.
Four bodyguards stood outside the Qin Manorâ¦
Mrs. Qin yelled, bellowed, and cried like a crazy woman, but in the end, she still couldnât leave her houseâ¦
This was the first anniversary party Qin Chu oversaw since he became GKâs president, and he didnât want anything to go wrong.
He had seen how unreasonable his mother could beâ¦
That was why he resorted to such a subpar measureâ¦
Performances began at exactly 9:30 AMâ¦
Two renowned MCs walked up to the stage and began their opening dialogueâ¦
Then, dancers began dancingâ¦
The speakers in the ballroom were high-end, comparable to that of a concert.
âHoney⦠how much did we have to pay the hotel for an event like this?â
To Huo Mian, Ritz Carlton had always been too expensiveâ¦
The hotel environment was good â everything was good, but even during offseasons, standard rooms cost more than 1,900 yuan per night.
So many people came to GKâs celebration, eating and staying here; plus, a performance of this scale was being held in its biggest ballroom.
It mustâve cost a fortune.
âNothing.â
âUm⦠are they sponsoring us?â Huo Mian was shocked.
âNo, I bought this hotel.â
âOkay⦠Mr. Moneybags, you sure can do whatever you want.â
It was then that Huo Mian realized why so many company meetings were held at Ritz Carlton.
It turned out that Qin Chu already bought the hotel, making it a subsidiary of GKâ¦
This was Huo Mianâs first time listening to Ni Yang sing live; he had a great voice.
It wasnât a k-pop-style fast song, nor was it sung in a language that no one could understand.
It was a simple Chinese folk song.
Ni Yang played a wooden guitar as he sang.
The crowd went wild as soon as he came onto the stageâ¦
No wonder he was a popular idolâ¦
The songâs name was Warmth.
Huo Mian was entranced and touched by his singingâ¦
The song sounded sad; she knew that Ni Yang had always yearned for motherly loveâ¦
Mo Xueâer was very talented; she danced to jazz and sang an English song.
Lighting up the entire ballroomâ¦
Then, a famous Beijing opera singer performed; Huo Mian didnât understand much, but she still listened attentively.
It was a riveting rendition of Butterfly Loversâ¦
The older city officials in the front row couldnât help but burst into applauseâ¦
Huo Mian turned around to look at her mother, who was crying in the second row. It seems like older generations all cherished the memory of this story.
During the interlude, Annie Liang and three other celebrities under GK sang The Taste of Summer.
Then, renowned domestic comedians performed skitsâ¦
Everyone was watching attentively, and 10 national TV channels all broadcasted the event.
The 16 broadcasters in C city all came to record the event liveâ¦
It was unprecedented, and viewer ratings reached 29.8% halfway through the performances.
This was a first in historyâ¦
After all of the performances ended, the MC then proceeded to interact with the audienceâ¦
Jin Lan knew Su Yu well⦠so she immediately passed the microphone to Su Yu, who was sitting in the first row.
âPresident Su⦠as the president of a competing company, would you like to give your blessing to GK?â
âCan I sing a song?â Su Yu slowly got up.
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd went into uproar⦠Everyone was astonished, because⦠no one had ever heard the Young Master Su sing.
