Chapter 494: The Treasure of the Regiment
Of course, the gentlemen were envious, while the ladies present were downright jealous of Ophelia Wilson.James Reed skipped even this kind of banquet just to get engaged to Ophelia Wilson. To what extent must he love her?
As a celebrity, Ophelia was naturally sensitive to the gazes around her. Feeling countless envious and jealous looks directed at her, she leaned on James Reed’s shoulder, happily whispering with a smile, "I’m going to be envied to death today."
"James, why are you so good to me?" Ophelia pouted as she linked arms with James, her heart almost exploding with happiness.
James Reed chuckled indulgently and said, "It’s only right because you’re the woman I love."
Ophelia was so excited that she almost fainted, her heart was beating so fast it was speeding.
"It’s starting!" Someone among the guests shouted, and everyone’s attention was immediately drawn to the big screen, even Ophelia couldn’t help but look up.
This was the banquet that James missed for their engagement, so she had to take a good look.
Fortunately for everyone, a sneaky reporter found a great spot, just right for a clear view of the stage.
The stage was empty, with nothing on it.
This was all baffling to the people watching the live stream. What was going on?
Suddenly, heart-stirring music began playing, joyful and lively.
Not everyone is a music expert, but whether they understand music theory or not, everyone who heard the music could feel the joy and happiness in the melody.
This feeling was like being surrounded by blooming flowers in a mountain landscape, birds chirping, springs trickling, a gentle breeze passing through dense woods, brushing over soft grass underfoot, myriad flowers swaying in the breeze with a rustling sound as if nature itself was whispering in their ears.
Taking a deep breath, bringing the fresh mountain air into the lungs, then exhaling slowly, during this inhale and exhale, the mind and soul felt purified.
City troubles were left behind, feeling as if floating above a sea of clouds, drifting weightlessly with the wind, light as a feather.
While everyone at the engagement party was immersed, a message appeared in the comment section below the live streaming platform.
"I’m not sure if there’s something wrong with my ears, but I think I heard my idol’s performance. I’m a music student, and my idol is..."
The user mentioned a name, then added a note: "I started learning violin at five, got obsessed with my idol at seven, and haven’t changed idols since, at twenty-five now, so I think I shouldn’t be wrong."
For those who didn’t study music, it was a bit baffling, especially unfamiliar with that foreign name. But, as soon as this user posted the message, someone immediately replied, "Well, I think you’re not wrong, because it also sounds like a few others I like..."
That person listed several more names.
The other users were puzzled and immediately went to search, and once they returned with the results, the responses exploded below.
"Just searched and came back, I was on my knees reading up on those folks’ profiles... If it really is those people... No way, who is this that can invite them all at once? They’re treasures of the international music world, aren’t they? The crown jewels of famous orchestras, aren’t they?"
