Once the assistant left, Yu Yuehan reached for his jacket and stepped out of his office.
He got into his car and headed straight to the venue of the product launch.
The collaboration between Sheng Da Science and Technology and the Yu Corporation had garnered a lot of attention within the industry when the two companies first signed a partnership agreement.
This was one of the largest investment projects of the year for the Yu Corporation.
Today was the first promotional activity for the project. An hour before the start of the event, the venue was already jam-packed with people.
Seated in the front row of the product launch were prominent guests from the industry.
Behind them were media representatives from various organizations.
Surrounding them were Shangxin’s fans and members of the public.
The power of Shangxin’s appeal to her fans had always been explosive.
At that moment, the event had not yet started, but the massive crowd of fans had already filled up the inside and the outside of the venue. They were holding up banners and light sticks, eagerly awaiting her arrival.
From the outside, it appeared that everything was in order. What no one could tell was that the main star of the event had vanished.
Yu Yuehan circled the place and stopped the car in the car park behind the backstage area.
After parking the car, he walked toward the backstage area of the event location.
News of Shangxin’s disappearance had already spread among the staff.
The atmosphere backstage was tense and heavy.
Yu Yuehan had imagined walking into a scene of chaos, but surprisingly, although everyone appeared worried, there was no panic among them.
Instead, they were carrying out their tasks in an orderly manner…
“Supervisor Nian is full of vigor. When she found out about the problem, she stepped up and took charge of the backstage operations. The other staff only managed to keep calm because of her encouragement,” the person in charge of the location explained to Yu Yuehan.
Hearing this, Yu Yuehan’s eyes flickered.
His dark gaze swept across the backstage area before he recognized a familiar figure near the stage.
She was clad in her work attire with her hair tied into a ponytail.
Her appearance was simple and clean-cut, but she exuded an aura of confidence and efficiency.
In her hand was a walkie-talkie, and she was passing instructions through it.
She was not seized with helplessness or sobbing from fear like he had expected.
Nian Xiaomu felt something odd and turned around suddenly to look behind her.
When she saw Yu Yuehan standing at the entrance of the backstage area, she was so taken aback that she could not even speak. She only stared blankly in the direction of the entrance at that god-like man.
Ever since that time she had been caught red-handed speaking ill about him, she had not really encountered him.
It felt like he had become even more frigid.
Besides that air of nobility, he also seemed very distant and unapproachable.
However, what was strange was that just a second ago, Nian Xiaomu had felt extremely anxious and fretful about Shangxin’s disappearance. Yet, the moment he appeared, the panic in her heart suddenly calmed down.
There was only a slight urge to cry.
It was akin to the joy and vexation that a lost puppy would feel after suddenly being reunited with her owner.
When she realized what she was thinking, she silently muttered “No way!” in her heart.
She wasn’t a puppy!
Suppressing the frenzy inside her, she walked up to Yu Yuehan and explained the current situation.
“I have prepared an emergency proposal for the product launch today. Even if Shangxin does not turn up, we can still sort of cover it up with this. It’s Shangxin’s safety that I’m worried about. She has been looking forward to today’s product launch and even told me yesterday that she would definitely arrive early. She wouldn’t be absent without a valid reason. Young Master, could you…”
Before Nian Xiaomu could finish what she wanted to say, a big hand suddenly patted her head.
The palm was warm, heavy, and filled with a sense of security.
