Kiss of Venus: Chapter 49


After the Qixi Festival, Li Shen’s concert was drawing near. 
    
Tan Ping and Li Rui’s wedding was scheduled close to Li Shen’s concert. Yu Wan was really busy during this but because it is Li Shen’s first concert, she couldn’t miss it.
    
The ticket Li Shen gave her was for the first show which starts at 7 pm. Yu Wan was busy the whole afternoon and hurried to the venue. 
    
There is a special entrance for those with VIP tickets. Yu Wan followed the staff to the seat and found it was very close to the stage.
    
Half an hour before the concert started, the stadium was already filled with people. The sound of cheering, glow sticks, and lit-up signs can be seen everywhere. Yu Wan came empty-handed alone, feeling out of place.
    
Is Zhao Xin here yet? Yu Wan looked at the general seating area. Zhao Xin bought tickets for the first row of the general seating but it is far away. She looked around but didn’t see Zhao Xin. Instead, she saw Li Shen’s agent.
    
She saw Chi Lu once at Hu Jiao’s wedding. Thinking of her relationship with Li Shen, she subconsciously felt nervous. She smiled at Chi Lu and said hello. Chi Lu seemed to be surprised to see her for a second but then smiled at her, and returned backstage without saying anything.
    
Yu Wan took out her phone to send a message to Li Shen. Just as she clicked on Li Shen's WeChat account, he sent her a message.
    
Ah Shen: Are you here yet?
    
Wanwan: Yes!
    
Yu Wan took a picture of her surroundings and sent it to Li Shen.
    
Wanwan: There are so many people, everyone is very excited! What are you doing now?
    
Ah Shen: Warming up. orz

Ah Shen: I can hear the screams from backstage orz
    
Wanwan: Hahaha, are you nervous! There are really more people than I thought! Good luck!
    
Wanwan: Also, I just saw your agent earlier.
    
Just as Yu Wan sent this, Chi Lu walked into his temporary lounge. Li Shen put away his phone once he saw her and continued to stretch his legs.

Chi Lu walked up to him and asked, “I just saw Yu Wan sitting in the VIP area. Did you give her the ticket?”
    
Li Shen calmly replied, “I gave Hu Jiao a ticket. She asked me for a ticket to give to a friend. Hu Jiao must have given it to her.”
    
Chi Lu pondered about it. She heard that after the wedding Hu Jiao gave Yu Wan a designer bag so it doesn’t seem impossible to give her a concert ticket as well. 
    
She could just ask Hu Jiao about this matter. 
    
“The show’s about to start. Don’t be nervous, perform just like you did during rehearsals.” Chi Lu didn’t ask about Yu Wan anymore. What’s important now is the concert. She was there during the dress rehearsals and Li Shen performed very well. As long as he can get through the concert to the end, then there will be no problem.
    
"Yeah." Li Shen replied and did not speak anymore. Chi Lu didn't bother him anymore and went to talk with the stage manager.
    
Once she went out, Li Shen took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Xiao Dong, asking her to bring  Yu Wan to the lounge.
    
Xiao Dong: ….
    
Xiao Dong: Brother Shen, the concert is about to start. What are you doing!
    
Brother Shen: Nothing, I just want to talk to her. It will be very quick.
    
Brother Shen: If you don’t go, I will go find her myself.
    
Xiao Dong: …..
      
Who are you threatening!!
    
She angrily put the phone in her pocket and went to find Yu Wan. Yu Wan recognized Xiao Dong, so when she came to look for her, she didn't have any doubts and directly followed her to Li Shen's lounge.
    
"I'll wait for you outside. The concert is about to start. Don't talk too long." The key point is, don't be caught by Sister Lulu.
    
Xiao Dong felt that Li Shen is getting more and more courageous. Before the concert, he even dared to flirt under Sister Lulu’s nose!
    
Yu Wan didn't know how much Xiao Dong knew about her and Li Shen, so she could only sheepishly thank her and walked in.
    
Li Shen was practicing the opening dance. When Yu Wan came in, his movements stopped. Yu Wan walked up and asked, "What's the matter?"
    
Li Shen wordlessly looked at her and then pulled her into a hug. His heart is beating fast. He doesn’t know if it was because of his warm-up just now or the nearing concert. 
    
Yu Wan's eyes shifted, "Are you nervous?"
    
"...A little." Li Shen's dulled voice passed into Yu Wan's ears. When the concert tickets went on sale, the fans complained that the scale was too small, but Li Shen was still a little surprised when he secretly took a look at the stadium.
    
At first glance, it looks like tens of thousands of heads packed together. 
    
He participated in the New Year's Eve concert before and the audience was bigger than this, but today is his personal concert so he inevitably feels nervous.
    
Only when he is holding Yu Wan did his heart calm down?
    
"Don't worry, you have practiced for so long, there won’t be no problem!" Yu Wan gently patted his back trying to soothe him.
    
“En.” Li Shen slowly replied and finally, let go, “You should go back to your seat. I feel much better.”
    
Yu Wan smiled and cheered, “Good luck!”
    
As soon as she left with Xiao Dong, Chi Lu returned. Li Shen glanced at Chi Lu who walked in and calmly retracted his gaze.
    
As it soon approached seven o'clock, the mood of the audience became more and more excited. The screams in the venue were louder than before. Yu Wan was also infected by the atmosphere and inexplicably became nervous.
    
The lights around the stadium went dark. The screams of the fans resounded throughout the venue. When the lights came on again, Li Shen and the dancers were already onstage.
    
The opening song was the pop song “Nowhere to Run” from the album. It is also the song Li Shen practiced the longest for.
    
As soon as the prelude sounded, Li Shen, who was wearing a black jacket and black pants, started dancing with the dancer. The rhythm of this song is very strong, and the beat is also fast. Even the speed of Li Shen's rap cannot keep up by ordinary people.
    
Not only could Li Shen sing so clearly and accurately, but he could also dance perfectly with each step. This made the fans even crazier. They waved their light sticks to the rhythm of the song and the screams did not stop for one bit. 
    
Yu Wan felt that after the concert, they would all lose their voice. 
    
Nonetheless, Li Shen’s dance was really amazing. This is the first time she realized Li Shen could dance so beautifully. 
    
In the middle of the song, it was time for the breathing session which the instructor specifically created. Li Shen unzipped his jacket, took off his hood, and gasped twice.
    
The spotlight shined on him. His collarbone and muscles under his tank can be clearly seen on the big screen.
    
The fans’ screams rocked the stadium. The security created a human barrier, to prevent the fans from doing anything excessive. 
    
After a short breath, the song started again. Li Shen took off his jacket and continued to sing and dance on the stage. Now, the muscles of his arm can be seen more clearly on the big screen.
    
“.....”Yu Wan’s eardrums pounded from the noise around her. 
    
Li Shen’s opening performance set off the entire stadium….as well as Weibo and WeChat moments.
    
It hasn’t even been ten minutes since the concert started but because of his opening performance, Li Shen took up three of the popular searches, namely, Li Shen breathing, Li Shen dance, and Li Shen’s muscle. 
    
People eating melons, “....”
    
The haters didn’t even have time to react at all. They thought it would take halfway through the concert for the concert to end up in the hot search. 
    
Many of the audience members recorded a small video of Li Shen dancing. Many fans who couldn’t get tickets and passersby curiously watched it leading to Li Shen’s hot search to rank higher and higher. 
    
The entire Weibo homepage seems to be screaming.
    
“Ahhh, Shenshen is dancing!! And so beautifully!! Now I can die happy!”
    
“Brother Shen!! What is there you can’t do! Tell me!”
    
“Brother Shen’s breathing doesn't sound good so I will listen to it 200 million times [smile]”
    
“I feel like I am surrounded by Li Shen on Weibo. There is really nowhere to run [covers face] but he is handsome [covers face]. I want to touch his beautiful muscles [shy]”
    
“You just want to touch; you are very reserved. I want to…..you know.”

“I am going to clip out the breathing part and listen to it every night before I go to sleep _(:з∠)_”
    
“I envy those who are there in person. I’m going to burn Xingyao! [shed tears]”

The popularity on Weibo continued to rise and the scene finally calmed down. Probably because they think the fans couldn’t handle more excitement, after the overly hyped opening performance, Li Shen changed into a formal suit and sat in front of a piano as he began to play “Park,” to give a chance for the audience to breathe.
    
The effects were very good. It is as if they were transported to a sunny day in the park with birds and flowers all around. There were also official photos and videos specially provided by Lize Park for this concert. The mood of the audience finally eased as the audience slowly waved their light sticks and sang along with Li Shen. 
    
Most of Li Shen's songs are soothing and gentle. It was not until the guest performers came on stage that the atmosphere lit up again. Unexpectedly, the first special guest invited to the concert turned out to be Gu Xin!
    
So to no one’s surprise, Li Shen and Gu Xin made it to the hot search.
    
Li Shen and Gu Xin sang a rock duet. The song is Gu Xin’s “Frenzy.” The difficulty of the song was high but Li Shen performed very well, causing the fans to go crazy again.
    
Shenshen can even sing rock!! What godly spirit are you!”
    
“Apart from being able to give birth, there is nothing Brother Shen can do [kneel]”
    
“Shenshen can’t give birth but I can help him [shy]”
    
“Girls, please line up [smile]”
    
When Yu Wan later checked Weibo, “Li Shen give birth” also landed on the hot search.
    
The 90-minute concert ended very quickly, it wasn’t even as long as a movie. However, the feedback from the audience was very good. Li Shen’s concert was very high quality. 
    
This also made those who bought the tickets for the last two shows have higher expectations. Because Yu Wan was busy dealing with Tan Ping’s wedding, she wasn’t able to go to the other two shows. However, looking at the feedback from Weibo and Moments, it should be very successful.
    
After all three concerts came to an end, Li Shen finally had a short break. During this, Li Shen did not go out and stayed at home every day.
    
After the sky darkened, Yu Wan was still sitting on the sofa working on the wedding. She is currently wearing one of Li Shen’s shirts. Her pajamas were torn apart by Li Shen and she didn’t have a chance to go buy new ones. She just took out one of his shirts and wore it as pajamas.
    
After Li Shen came out of the shower, he saw her sitting cross-legged on the sofa holding her laptop. His shirt just covered her butt, giving him an unobstructed view of her fair and slender legs. 
    
He walked up and hugged her, sliding his hands up her legs: "Baby, I want….”
    
Yu Wan grabbed his hand and sternly said, “No, I don’t want to.”
    
“.....” Li Shen’s movements paused. Finally, he hugged her and laughed, “When will the wedding be done?”
    
“Soon, it’s on the third,” Yu Wan glanced at him sideways and smiled, “After this wedding is over, I will have to prepare for the next one.”
    
“.....”
    
Yu Wan is definitely more a workaholic than him.”
    
“Wanwan, you left me cold for a long time.” Li Shen complained. Yu Wan learned from Lili and looked at him innocently, “Have I?”
    
"Yes, I finally took a few days off, but you are working every day."
    
“Be good, I’ll be done on the third.” Yu Wan patted his head and continued to stare at the laptop. Li Shen was about to kiss her when her phone on the table rang.
    
Li Shen glanced at it and saw the words “President Wei.”
    
Li Shen inadvertently frowned. 
    
Yu Wan picked up the phone and answered it, “President Wei, what’s the matter?”
    
“Are you busy?”
    
“En, I’m finalizing Tan Ping’s wedding. We start setting up the site the day after tomorrow.”
    
“I see.” Wei Shao thought, “Then you must be busy. I originally wanted to discuss a new wedding. Maybe I should wait until tomorrow….”
    
When Wei Shao was talking, Li Shen suddenly kissed Yu Wan’s neck and gently grazed it.
    
Yu Wan unconsciously let out a hum. Wei Shao immediately stopped and asked after a while, “Is Li Shen beside you?”
    
“.....” Yu Wan was embarrassed to death. She doesn’t know why Wei Shao would ask about Li Shen but it doesn’t matter. She pulled away from Li Shen and glared at him as he spoke to Wei Shao, “No, it’s a dog beside me.”
    
“.....”
    
Lili, who was lying on the edge of the sofa, barked at this time. Wei Shao doesn’t know if he believed it or not. He only said that they will discuss it tomorrow and hung up. 
    
Yu Wan put down the phone and Li Shen hugged her again. Yu Wan helplessly looked at him, “Why are you so childish?”
    
“You said I am a dog, aren’t you childish?” Li Shen asked. 
    
Yu Wan turned her head and laughed. She knew that Li Shen still minded Wei Shao, although he had not asked her for anything.
    
“Did you say something to Wei Shao?”
    
Li Shen didn’t deny it, “I told him we got back together.”
    
“....” She didn’t ask what he specifically told Wei Shao but just said, “Aren’t you afraid he will expose you?”
    
“He’s not that type of person.”
    
“.....” Contrary to what one might expect, he is very trusting. 
    
Yu Wan sat up and looked straight at Li Shen, “Ah Shen, I want to leave Shaohua.”
    
Li Shen was taken aback. Although he wanted Yu Wan to stay away from Wei Shao, she had developed very well in Shaohua. He doesn’t want to affect her career.
    
He was silent for a while and asked her, "Will you go to a bigger company after leaving Shaohua?"
    
Yu Wan shook her head, “In a wedding company, the most I can rise up to is a planning director. I want to go at it myself and be an independent planner.”
