The School Beauty Became My Live-in Maid to Pay Off Her Debts-Chapter 167 Music Festival

After packing up at the hotel, Lin Shuang drove the Panamera he had borrowed from Xia Yubing’s aunt to the music festival venue.

"Yubing, have you finished the business deal with your aunt?"

"Mhmm~ Just a minor deal, hubby doesn’t need to worry."

Xia Yubing leaned close to Lin Shuang, carefully observing his complexion for a while.

"It seems that hubby slept well last night, that puts my mind at ease."

While speaking, this Xia fairy reached out, seemingly wanting to check if Lin Shuang was looking lively today.

"I’m driving! Safety first!"

Safety should always be the top priority on the road!

"Hehe, shall I let hubby off this time?"

Xia Yubing said playfully, "Hubby looked so worn out yesterday; it really made me worried."

"It’s all because of you! It’s all your fault!"

She pointed at her own cheek, pouting her lips, "Is it all my fault... Fine, I won’t do those things again..."

Lin Shuang’s hand slid down from the gear shift to pinch this Xia fairy’s hand.

He said with a smile, "Okay, let’s see who can’t hold back first."

Who’s afraid of who!

Xia Yubing shook his hand, "Hubby, you’re so annoying~ You’re not as easy to handle as before~"

She pursed the corners of her lips, "But that makes it more fun~"

"What’s with this tone of playing with a toy! Stop it!"

They continued their journey full of laughter and chatter to the site of the music festival.

The venue was quite far from Hai City Center, requiring a bit of a drive.

These music festival venues are usually in the suburbs, far from the city center, in some park.

Just find a big lawn, set up a stage, and start singing.

Sometimes there isn’t even a lawn, just bare dirt.

It’s fine on sunny days, but if it rains, coming back from the music festival would be like having rolled around in the mud.

The budget for the music festival often goes to inviting celebrities, and it seems like every other area is cut back as much as possible.

After parking the car in the parking lot, Lin Shuang knew immediately where today’s music festival budget had gone.

He looked over to see banners, standees, and posters of Yu Zhishui everywhere.

The young fans were all wearing headbands with Yu Zhishui’s photos and waving Yu Zhishui’s glow sticks in their hands.

Even many people had Yu Zhishui’s name stuck on their clothes and faces!

Seeing a crowd of densely packed Yu Zhishui fans was enough to make anyone with claustrophobia faint at a glance.

Despite the festival featuring several big stars, the atmosphere on-site was completely like a Yu Zhishui solo concert.

At this moment, seeing so many fervent fans, Lin Shuang finally realized that Yu Zhishui is truly a superstar idol.

—That silly girl really has so many fans.

Quite impressive.

Xia Yubing also hung onto Lin Shuang’s shoulder, looking around left and right.

"It’s so lively~ Hubby how’s things going with that little idol? Is it a bit challenging?"

Lin Shuang waved his hand, "...No progress! It’s actually a negative!"

He had just met Yu Zhishui for a day after all.

Xia Yubing blinked, "Ah? Hubby, are you already in a ’negative distance’ relationship with her? No wonder you looked so exhausted yesterday..."

Lin Shuang, with a mixture of laughter and helplessness, patted this Xia fairy’s head, "Alright, I really just met her!"

He always felt these girls were fishing for a reaction from him every day!

Lin Shuang led Xia Yubing around the music festival site, curious to explore for a while.

Around the perimeter of the stage, there were stalls selling merchandise of bands and celebrities who would be performing.

Things like towels, banners, clothes, albums, and such were available in all varieties.

There were also die-hard fans exchanging merchandise, looking for missing items in their collections.

The vibe was pretty good.

Lin Shuang and Xia Yubing, two fake fans, wandered around for a while and also bought an album by Yu Zhishui.

After buying it, Lin Shuang felt a bit cheated, as he could have just asked that silly idol for it!

And he could’ve even gotten an autograph, a personalized one, with blessings filling the cover.

This Yu Zhishui album, simply titled "Yu Zhishui," was her debut album released at the start of her career.

Many singers do this with their first album so that listeners can remember them better.

The cover features a close-up photo of Yu Zhishui.

The silly idol had her hair tied into two buns, pouting at the camera.

— With a cool-looking face, she did look quite cool indeed.

But Lin Shuang felt like she was about to burst into laughter any second.

The silly idol really looked cuter when she smiled.

Plus, the makeup was a bit thick; Lin Shuang rated it as not as good as the makeup-free Yu Zhishui he saw yesterday.

She indeed looked impeccable; even without makeup, she was stunning.

But there was no helping it; celebrities need heavier makeup on stage due to the distance from the audience.

And the camera would eat makeup too.

Xia Yubing leaned in next to Lin Shuang and also looked at the album.

"This little idol really is cute~"

Faced with this deadly question, Lin Shuang immediately responded, "Yubing, you’re beautiful too!"

Ho-ho, he definitely wouldn’t fall into this pit!

He’s been through a hundred battles by now~

"Hmph, hubby is surrounded by pretty girls."

Did he just fall into another pit?

Lin Shuang chose to self-destruct, "No way around it, who told me to be so handsome!"

"Hehe, hubby is the handsomest~"

There was still some time before the show, so they continued to stroll around the venue.

Surrounding takeouts and various kinds of food circled the area.

After all, music festivals tend to run from the afternoon until evening, and meals are usually taken care of on-site.

And what’s more infuriating is that at many music festivals, security checks upon entry always confiscate any food and drinks brought by the audience.

Some don’t confiscate food, but drinks are generally taken away.

Comic conventions do the same thing.

They say it’s for safety.

Sure, there might be safety considerations, but it’s also about raking in Gold Coins!

Aside from the ticket sales, another major way to recoup costs is the food and beverages sold on-site.

Each one is priced sky-high and doesn’t even taste good.

Water would cost twenty yuan a cup!

After a whole music festival, apart from the hefty ticket price, the day’s food and drink expenses add up to a significant amount.

But fortunately, a good music festival is generally worth the ticket price.

Lin Shuang and Xia Yubing sampled some food but couldn’t really compliment it.

Thankfully, the tickets Yu Zhishui gave to Lin Shuang were for the super VIP section.

Seated in the front on an elevated platform.

With individual small rooms for shade and shelter from the rain and a lot of food and beverages prepared.

When Lin Shuang led Xia Yubing in, there was only one meal prep waiter in this small room.

And a girl sitting in a corner, wrapped up tightly and wearing sunglasses.

As soon as she saw Lin Shuang, she sprang up like a spring.

"Lin Shuang, you’re here!"
