Chapter 506: I can betray everyone in the world but one person
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
Wen Dabao paled. He loved the fact that he had just seen six stars perform. However, he had lost his entire vault of savings in the process.
His feelings right now were difficult to describe.
As for all seven stars?
He had thought about it, but Ping Yang was right. The boss of the Seven Star Lane was no dumb.
The betting table had been set up just outside his place. If he didn't know that there was 130,000 riding on all seven appearing, then he wasn't fit to be the boss.
No matter what...
There was no way all seven would appear today.
The sound of the bianzhong died down. Then, the lady bowed to the crowd.
At that moment, everyone rose to give a standing ovation!
”That was stellar!”
”Yes! When is Shishi going to perform for us again?”
”It is our good fortune to have been graced by the presence of six stars today!”
As they stood up to clap, they all looked at the seventh platform, smiling as they did so.
The seventh platform didn't light up.
”Only six!”
”Hahaha, all seven? What a joke!”
”Hahaha does he really think he is that lucky? Even if he is, he should bet on something more realistic!”
The crowd began to chuckle when they saw that the seventh platform had yet to light up.
The results were out...
Actually, the results had been decided the moment there was 130,000 riding on that bet. It wasn't going to happen tonight.
The boss of the Seven Star Lane was not stupid.
That was what everyone thought. They looked at Fang Zhengzhi mockingly.
Then...
Their mockery turned into doubt and confusion. They saw that Fang Zhengzhi stood up and stared at the seventh platform.
”Come down!”
The words were simple and said calmly. However, the entire Seven Star Lane was quiet.
All of the instruments stopped playing at that moment. No one made a single sound. Even the waitresses stopped what they were doing.
This had shocked everyone there and they stared at the figure standing in the middle of the room.
However, the silence was quickly broken. The crowd laughed at the top of their lungs. They couldn't believe what they had just heard.
”Hahaha... what did I just hear? Did he say come down?!”
”Yes, come down! Who does he think he is?”
”This is the most hilarious thing that I have heard since coming here! Who points to the platform and demands a star come down? Hahaha... this is killing me!”
”Does he really think that the boss of the Seven Star Lane will listen to him?”
The crowd laughed hysterically. They ignored the fact that Ping Yang and Yan Xiu were beside Fang Zhengzhi. This was too ridiculous.
To them...
This was a joke. It was the biggest joke they had ever witnessed.
Ping Yang was completely shocked as well. She had no idea what Fang Zhengzhi was doing.
Yan Xiu was looking at Fang Zhengzhi as well. His icy expression gave away little, but one could see that he was deep in thought by the glow in his eyes.
Wen Dabao wanted to laugh as well but he suppressed it. He knew what the consequences would be if he laughed, so he did his best to suppress it.
This caused his face to turn completely red.
However, within moments, all the blood drained from his face. This was from the shock and horror as a result of what he saw.
Wen Dabao's eyes were actually really small. But now...
They were about to pop out of their sockets.
His eyes were filled with disbelief. He simply couldn't bring himself to believe that this was really happening.
Because...
The seventh platform lit up.
That was a pale yellow, almost golden light. It shone down from the ceiling and on the platform, staining it golden.
”It... lit, lit, lit up?!” Wen Dabao's lips quivered as he looked at the golden light on the platform. He was utterly floored.
He was not alone. Most of the crowd couldn't believe their eyes. When the golden light shone on that platform, the crowd fell silent...
The laughter died down almost instantly and was replaced by a pin-drop silence.
It was so sudden that most people couldn't even react in time. Theo bodies were frozen and their minds were blank.
No one could figure out what was happening. No one understood why the seventh platform would light up either.
Then...
A figure landed on the platform.
This lady was in a golden dress, her silky smooth hair falling to her waist. She had a maroon guqin in her hands.
”It's... it's Luo... Luoqin!”
”It really is Luoqin!”
”Am... am I seeing things? Luoqin is performing?!”
No one in the crowd could believe their eyes. All of them were filled with surprise and shock when they saw Luoqin.
When Luoqin landed on her platform, this signifies that tonight was an extraordinary night.
Seven stars...
All seven stars!
This was something that had happened only once in the past one and a half years. Yet, this was happening tonight!
That was not the most important part. They simply couldn't believe that the seven stars would appear tonight.
