Eight Hundred and Forty Sixth Celebration Banquet

Crash.

Crash.

The sound of water echoed in the bathroom. Ronan buried his cheeks under the water and held his breath. Feeling the coolness, he gently massaged his eyes to relieve the soreness of drunkenness last night. The oxygen in his body was not enough, so he suddenly raised his head.

Panting heavily, looking at the face reflected in the mirror full of water vapor, the bloodshot eyes and dark circles can obviously feel the deep fatigue, but the light and upturned corners of the mouth can feel the joy of the mood, from the inside out Happiness and ease just overflowed irrepressibly.

It is officially confirmed that the sales volume of "Nine" in the first week has broken through one million in history, and it has airborne to the top of the billboard album chart with the king's landing posture, and it has sounded the clarion call for the debut of the second album of One Day King. Last night, Atlantic Records specially presented the band in Los Angeles The Hilton Hotel held a grand celebration banquet.

At the banquet, not only the executives of Atlantic Records and Universal Records attended one after another, and one could clearly feel the status of the company that has risen all day. They also invited a lot of friends to celebrate together, Justin Timberlake, Bruno Mars, The Shining Band and other good friends naturally attended, as did Taylor Swift, Pharrell Williams, John Legend and other newly made friends.

The biggest surprise should be Alena Bayeva's sneaky appearance——

She was on her way to perform at Lincoln Center in New York, and when she learned of the great success of One Day King's new album, she secretly searched from Seattle to Los Angeles to surprise Ronan.

Surprise, indeed a surprise, surprise and joy!

Ronan's mood was in full bloom, and it was precisely because of this that he drank a little too much alcohol last night. If it wasn't for Alena to stay sane for the upcoming performance and take care of Ronan in a sober state, I'm afraid Ronan might lose his composure last night Finally, with Alena's company, he checked in directly at the hotel.

But Ronan can't remember the specific process.

In the morning, Alena still needs to catch a plane to New York——

She sneaked out. The other bandmates had already gone to New York from Seattle to prepare for this Friday's performance. She turned a corner, but in order not to delay the rehearsal, she needed to go to New York to join her friends as soon as possible.

When Ronan woke up, there was still a faint warmth and fragrance in the bed, but the beauty had already left.

After staying in bed for a while, Ronan also forced himself to get up,

Today is still not the time to sleep in. The album promotion period is still in full swing. Today, the most important and formal interview is arranged. The cover interview of "Billboard" magazine will be updated on the homepage of the website and the cover of the magazine at the same time.

Band members must cheer up.

call……

He let out a long breath, his head was still throbbing, but his consciousness was basically clear, Ronan thought he needed to eat to fill his stomach.

knock knock!

knock knock!

Outside the bathroom, a knock on the door of the room could be faintly heard. Ronan thought it was Johnny Quaid who came to urge him, and rushed out in a big stride.

"I'm coming."

However, when he opened the door and saw the familiar face of Max Cooper, the kind happiness calmed down the slightly nervous and flustered mood——

Last night, Max and Alice also attended the celebration banquet, but because there were reporters present, Max left early and did not stay until the end.

By the way, Alice's first film has already entered the post-production stage. The subject matter and content are all kept secret, but Alice has already sent out an invitation:

"After the editing is finished, we will hold an internal preview meeting. The two of you must come. I also look forward to your objective opinions."

This "you" is obviously the two brothers Max and Ronan.

"Oh, brother." Ronan greeted cordially, without being polite, opened the door of the room, turned around and went back, muttering, "Interview, interview, the interview should be ten o'clock, what time is it now?" Is it time? I need to take care of myself, and I don't know if they're up or not."

"Nine thirty-five." Max replied in a deep voice.

Ronan exclaimed, "Ah", and patted his head annoyedly, "Then I must speed up, I need to change a set of clothes, as for the makeup, I can wait until the interview team arrives... Johnny said today's The interviews are conducted individually and in turn, and then the group photo is taken at the end, so there should be time..."

Max looked at Ronan, who was walking in a hurry but lightly, like a busy bee, he could feel his joy and happiness in every gesture, which made him feel a little relieved, maybe...he didn't need to worry about Ronan anymore.

"Max, what's the matter?" Ronan stopped suddenly, turned around and asked.

"Huh?" Max was taken aback, not understanding Ronan's words.

Ronan looked over, "You came to the celebration banquet yesterday, didn't you have something to tell me?" Otherwise, with Max's character, he should not be willing to attend such a lively occasion full of stars, "Sorry, I was really busy last night , I don’t even remember what happened, ha. But you came here again this morning, so it should be something important, right?”

Max hesitated.

He thought maybe he didn't need to mention it, but he didn't think that Ronan had already noticed his intention, so——

"Did he look for you?"

Ronan, "..." His head was full of question marks, his brows were slightly frowned, and he couldn't help but chuckled and asked, "Who? Which one?"

Max greeted Ronan's bright smile, and finally said, "Jonathan."

"Jonathan, which Jonathan?" Ronan swore, he really didn't mean to be stupid, his mind was full of question marks, but seeing Max's serious expression, he realized that Max didn't seem to be joking.

"What is he planning again? No matter what he asks you to do, you don't care, understand?" Max's words became slightly anxious, showing a little aggressiveness.

Ronan finally reacted at this time:

Jonathan Hansen.

The man who should be the "father" from a biological point of view completely disappeared from their lives because he abandoned his wife and son.

There was a faint smile in Ronan's eyes, "Did he look for you too? Is this a transfer target? But the transfer speed is too slow, I thought he had already given up. For business From a human point of view, he is not as decisive as I imagined, it should be that he has become soft after getting old and weak."

A little bit of banter, a little bit of banter, as if discussing something that doesn't matter at all.

Max looked at Ronan in front of him, with a hint of sadness in his eyes—how much pain did he go through to grow into the strong man he is now?

"Ronan, he's looking for you, why didn't you tell me?" Max clenched his fists again involuntarily, and the depths of his eyes, which were usually calm and steady, also set off turbulent waves, revealing the truth and depth of the pain.
