After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1718 - 1722: Husband: General Leng Zirui

In order to ensure Xu Xia remains in the best condition, the staff prepared a dinner for her that was light yet nutritious.

Xu Xia also understood the importance of dinner and ate it seriously.

The time swiftly passed, and it was already seven o’clock. The audience had started entering, while Xu Xia arrived backstage to begin her makeup preparation.

Although she had held many concerts, it was her first time in Hong Kong Hung Hom. If successful this time, her world tour concert would proceed smoothly.

While the makeup artist was styling and applying makeup on her, two staff members came in carrying a huge box.

"Sister Xia, your gift!"

Everyone turned to look at the box, which had a diameter of a meter, and each one of them was surprised.

Xu Xia left her chair and curiously walked over.

"Who sent it?!"

"It was someone from a gift company. They said the sender didn’t leave their name, only mentioned as anonymous." The staff answered.

Anonymous?!

Xu Xia, puzzled, took the box and untied the ribbon on top.

When she lifted the lid, a floral fragrance immediately wafted out; it was a flower box.

Inside were neatly arranged red roses, with a heart-shaped small box in the middle.

Xu Xia reached in, took out the small box, and carefully opened it.

Inside the box, on a red velvet cushion, there was a medal with the words "First-Class Merit" prominently displayed.

Noticing the small note under the medal, Xu Xia smiled as she picked it up and unfolded it.

Upon seeing the medal, she already guessed who sent the gift.

On the note, a line of bold penmanship read—Specially awarded to my dear wife Xu Xia, for a First-Class Merit performance, as encouragement.

Beneath was signed—Husband: General Leng Zirui.

"I’m not your soldier!"

Xu Xia pouted, but her face was bright with smiles.

"The performance hasn’t started yet, and the First-Class Merit medal has already been delivered. Miss Xu, did you get this through special favors?!" Chu Fan teased from the side.

Lan Zi, who was already discharged from the hospital, joined in the jest, "Xu Xia, be honest, how did you use your wiles to defeat our General Leng?"

"Aren’t you guys bored!" Xu Xia covered the box and held the medal in her palm, "I’m not talking to you, I need to continue my makeup!"

"Oh, someone is blushing?" the makeup artist joked too, "No need for blush tonight, Miss Xu has her own."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Xu Xia glared at them, "Are you done, or should I dock your pay?"

"If you dock our pay, we’ll just come to your wedding banquet empty-handed, no red envelopes." Lan Zi glanced around at everyone with a smile, "What do you all say?!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison.

Of course, despite the jokes, the work proceeded without delay.

After this little episode, any bit of tension Xu Xia felt was instantly dispelled. At eight o’clock, amidst the fans’ calls, Xu Xia stepped onto the stage.

The drums began to play.

"1, 2, 3, 4!" Her powerful and resonant voice filled the venue, "I know you have a secret in your heart..."

This was the very song, "I Know You Have a Secret in Your Heart," that had won her the championship five years ago.

The spotlight came on, and Xu Xia, in dazzling red, appeared in front of everyone.

The whole place erupted in cheers.

Good afternoon.
