555 Surprise Performance (1/2)

Iris' eyes widened in surprise. She didn't expect that her music mentor, Enrique Valdez, would be so eager to perform this particular song with her. Throughout his long and successful music career, he had composed and written far more technically difficult songs than her.

”Let's go,” he said, heading to the stage ahead of her.

She watched his back, a little speechless. Then she saw the mischievous eyes of Grandpa Lu. The old man must've translated what Blaze was saying to Enrique Valdez and the others. Otherwise, how could the legendary hitmaker know that Blaze was talking about the particular song she wrote for Pandemonium?

When the people saw Enrique Valdez standing up and heading to the stage, they felt shocked. All members of the Pandemonium band froze. Their jaws fell down and their eyes almost popped out of their heads. They watched in amazed disbelief as the legendary hitmaker climbed the small stage.

As a left-handed lead guitarist, Eros idolized Enrique Valdez the most. Almost all southpaw guitarists admired the legendary hitmaker. Eros staggered back and clutched his chest, turning extremely red as if the love of his life who he had been pining for so long finally made eye contact with him.

”En-Enri…que…” Blaze couldn't even form proper words anymore. It felt like he had lost control of his own tongue.

Night just stood there like a statue. Thunder had the most exaggerated expression among the band members. His complexion was already turning purple because he had forgotten how to breathe.

When Enrique Valdez smiled and nodded at them, Eros swayed and looked like he was going to faint.

The entire place was silent as the dead. Everyone wasn't sure what exactly was going on. Could it be that Enrique Valdez would…? No way… They didn't dare believe it but the hope burned inside their minds. Maybe…just maybe, he really would… No. Impossible. This was too good to be true.

Enrique Valdez held out his hand, palm up, to Blaze. He did this without saying anything.

The dumbfounded Blaze stared at the legendary hitmaker's extended hand like a stupid idiot, as if it was a divine hand. Seizing the opportunity, Blaze took it and then began shaking it with his own sweaty hand.

”N-nice to…m-meet chu,” he stuttered in English.

An amused smile lifted the corners of Enrique Valdez's lips. Blaze continued to shake his hand, refusing to let it go. The other band members finally started regaining their senses. They all felt envious of Blaze and began to make their way to the front of the stage to also shake their rock idol's hand.

”I actually want the mic, but nice to meet you, too,” Enrique Valdez said in his low, smooth voice.

”Oh!” Blaze felt embarrassed so he handed the mic to his idol.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Enrique Valdez raised an eyebrow, his amused eyes glancing down.

”Let go of his hand. It's my turn!” Eros said, pushing Blaze away.

The others band members also crowded around the legendary hitmaker, not wanting to miss the chance to speak with him, hold his hand, smell his godly scent, hoping that some of his overwhelming music success would rub off on them.

Before granting them their wish, Enrique Valdez looked at someone in the audience and spoke to the mic, saying, ”Hurry up.”

Iris had already recovered from her earlier surprise. She was now on her way to the stage but her mermaid-style dress prevented her from walking quickly.

A few moments later, she finally arrived on the stage. The normally attractive and cool-looking Blaze, Eros, Night and Thunder were all reduced to looking like star-eyed fangirls—cough cough—”fanboys” in front of their ultimate rock star idol.

Not one to waste words, Enrique Valdez went straight to the point. ”I need a guitar.”

”The venue only has an extra keyboard and acoustic guitar,” she replied.

Understanding their English conversation, Eros immediately lifted his own electric guitar. ”P-please use my guitar! It's left-handed!”

”No, you should use your own guitar,” Enrique Valdez told him before telling Iris, ”Give me the acoustic guitar.”

”It's right-handed.”
