Chapter 358 - eting the Martial Cultivator Again the Trouble of the Fairy Feng Nichang
The staff mber approached Soong Wan with a question.
“Excuse , are you Miss Soong?”
Soong Wan nodded, a smile gracing her face. She leaned in closer to Jiang Hao and whispered excitedly.
“Co on, I'll introduce you to the Fairy Maiden up close!”
With that, she grabbed Jiang Hao's hand and told the staff mber,
“Let's go!”
The staff mber gestured for them to follow and led them around to the back.
In no ti, guided by the staff, they reached backstage.
There, a middle-aged woman greeted them warmly.
Soong Wan, clearly familiar with her, greeted her with a cheerful laugh.
“Aunt Hong, where's Niching?”
Aunt Hong's face lit up with a smile upon seeing Soong Wan.
“Niching is inside, waiting for you!”
Then, turning to Jiang Hao with a hint of surprise, she asked,
“And who might this be?”
Aunt Hong was inwardly taken aback by Jiang Hao. She found herself unable to read this young man, an occurrence that was entirely new to her.
Hearing this, Soong Wan quickly introduced him.
“This is my boyfriend, Jiang Hao!”
Aunt Hong's eyes widened in surprise as she gave Jiang Hao a curious once-over.
Then, with a friendly tone, she greeted him.
“Nice to et you, Mr. Jiang!”
Soong Wan then introduced Aunt Hong to Jiang Hao.
“Aunt Hong is Niching's agent. Brother Hao, you can just call her Aunt Hong too!”
Jiang Hao regarded Aunt Hong with equal surprise, sensing the presence of a martial cultivator's aura about her—and not a weak one at that.
“Hello, Aunt Hong,” he greeted her, managing to keep his astonishnt in check with a polite nod.
Thanks to Soong Wan's introduction, the two were now acquainted.
Aunt Hong then led them into a room.
Upon entering, Jiang Hao was imdiately struck by the sight of a celestial beauty with an ethereal grace, like a fairy exiled from the heavens to the mortal realm.
It was undeniable—this otaku's dream of a fairy was stunningly beautiful, on par with Soong Wan herself.
Yet, unlike Soong Wan's gentle deanor, this woman possessed an untouchable purity and sanctity that commanded reverence.
She seed almost too otherworldly to be real.
But at that mont, the Qingcheng Fairy's furrowed brow betrayed a mind heavy with concerns.
Upon witnessing the scene, Soong Wan couldn't resist making a playful remark.
“Wow, who's managed to ruffle the feathers of our Fairy Nishang?”
Just then, Feng Nichang glanced over and, recognizing Soong Wan, her face broke into a smile as she swiftly rose to et her.
“Wan'er, you've arrived!”
Soong Wan gave a nod and dove right into her concern.
“You look quite troubled. Is sothing the matter?”
It was at this point that Aunt Hong chid in.
“It's the staff—they've been less than competent. Nishang is about to take the stage,
and the musician who was supposed to accompany her on the guqin just called to bail, claiming he had an urgent matter!”
“I should've managed the preparations better myself,” Aunt Hong lanted, clearly vexed by the situation.
Hearing this, Soong Wan's worry for Feng Nichang intensified.
“What are we going to do now?”
“Isn't there another guqin player available?”
Feng Nichang replied, “There are a couple who can strum a few tunes, but they can't match my pace.”
Feng Nichang's words were gentle, but her ssage was unmistakable:
Their skills were simply not up to par, and they wouldn't suffice.
Soong Wan's anxiety peaked upon hearing this.
And that's when Feng Nichang's eyes landed on Jiang Hao, who was off to the side.
She regarded him with a hint of astonishnt before turning to Soong Wan to inquire,
“Who might this be?”
