Chapter 324: Won’t Sing Su Muyan’s Song
Everyone started off strong, but slowly, they would deteriorate.
“I don’t want to,” He Lu’s eyes were red with anger. “If you want to flatter them, be my guest! I won’t stoop so low to please them.”
He Lu just wanted them to get out of her sight.
“You… you’re just spoiled by your parents,” Jiang Qishan sighed. Seeing her like this, he seriously warned her, “It’s fine if you don’t want to be nice to them, but you shouldn’t provoke them or make enemies with them. Otherwise, if you get into trouble in the future, even I can’t help you.”
He Lu yelled, “Are they that great?”
Her uncle is a changed man and no longer loved or understood her. He did not even help her and even asked her to please Shen Feng! She could never!
Jiang Qishan looked glum. “You must change your princess attitude. You can throw a tantrum in front of us because we pamper you, but once you start working, you can no longer be so capricious! Otherwise, we can’t even help you if you offend someone important. Not all people in power are like Xia Ze.”
The richer and more powerful people tend to be more low-key. If He Lu looked down on someone and offended them, then it would be her loss. She made her bed, so she had to lie in it.
“Are you talking about Shen Feng? What kind of big shot is he? What power does he even have?” The more Jiang Qishan lectured her, the more she hated Shen Feng and laughed mockingly. “His parents only run a small restaurant in town, and his sister is blind.”
“He Lu!” Jiang Qishan wanted to raise his hand to hit her, but he forced himself to calm down. “Fine, I can’t control you. I’ll tell your parents so that they can educate you!”
“Do as you wish,” He Lu had never felt so aggrieved. She felt even more aggravated when she thought about it and ran away in anger.
Jiang Qishan was exasperated. ‘This child is so disobedient now that she’s all grown up.’
The parlor.
Shen Feng had gone out.
Shen Xi sent the design to Uncle Wang. “Please make these cufflinks for me. I’d like them to be ready next month.”
Uncle Wang wore his old-fashioned glasses to look at the design. He nodded his head in awe. “Wow, this design is really nice! Is this a gift for your boyfriend?”
‘This little girl is really full of surprises! Her speech, demeanor, and even designing skills were so outstanding.’
Shen Xi smiled and did not speak. Li Yuan’s birthday was next month.
Uncle Wang knew that a girl her age must have drawn such an attentive design for her boyfriend. She even asked her boyfriend to leave the room earlier. Uncle Wang smiled knowingly and said, “You want to give him a surprise? I’ll make this first then.”
Shen Xi knew that he misunderstood and explained, “It’s not for him.”
‘No way is it for Shen Feng! Shen Feng’s my brother…’
She originally planned to make the cufflinks herself, but she never found the right material and was afraid that it would be too ugly for Li Yuan to wear, which would affect his temperament and image.
This kind of intricate craftsmanship was better left to the professionals. When she got this ability one day, she would make him ten cufflinks so that he would not have to repeat wearing them.
Shen Xi left this to Uncle Wang before she went back to the storefront.
Shen Feng and a group of classmates were standing at the entrance. The group of people around him kept complimenting and patronizing him. All of them wanted him to teach them how to make money.
Since they had not seen each other for two years and finally found the time to meet up, they decided to have some fun. Someone proposed to go for karaoke and another proposed to go to the bar.
“Shen Feng, you’ve made it big! You’re the first billionaire in our class, so you have to treat us!” Some people cheered.
Shen Feng saw Xia Ze’s face and was so happy that he waved his hand while he said proudly, “Okay! My treat!”
They had not eaten anything before they went to the jewelry store, so they returned to the hotel to eat and continued the fun at the bar.
Shen Xi originally thought that He Lu and Xia Ze would certainly find an excuse to leave. After all, they lost a Ferrari and got embarrassed, so they must be so angry. Unexpectedly, those two also tagged along.
There were a lot of young people partying during the New Year. The bar was full and noisy. Some singers were performing on stage.
A group of people stood up with their glasses. One of them looked at Shen Feng and said, “Feng, let’s toast to you and your girlfriend! You must finish your drink!”
“My girlfriend can’t drink,” Shen Feng snatched away the glass from Shen Xi’s hand and smiled. “I’ll drink for her.”
After saying that, he tilted his head back and chugged it.
“Feng, you really love your girlfriend!”
“That’s right…Yun Xi, you’re so lucky to have such a good boyfriend like Feng!”
“Of course, a girl needs to be pampered!”
The group laughed and did not dare to say anything else. After all, Shen Feng was no longer on the same level as them. No one dared to offend him and wanted him to teach them how to make money in the future.
Shen Xi’s eyes were cold as she sat on the side with her phone. She did not participate in their conversation, but no one dared to say a word.
This was human nature. Many would step on others to reach greater heights, and these people were the same.
Shen Xi did not enjoy this party because she detested such hypocrisy. She disliked these jealous people who deliberately wanted to butter them up.
Real friends should be happy for each other and treat each other sincerely regardless of social status.
Xia Ze was in a bad mood and looked at the smug Shen Feng with a feeling that Shen Feng was mocking him.
He was supposed to be the focus of this party and everyone should have listened to him and praised him.
Who knew that he failed to do so and even lost a car. Not to mention, the person he wanted to step on had stolen his limelight, so now, Xia Ze was completely ignored by the group.
This kind of feeling drove him mad. He had never felt so humiliated and would never let Shen Feng go so easily.
The future was still uncertain. Xia Ze decided that he would return all the humiliation he suffered today a thousand times over so that Shen Feng could have a taste of what it meant to be trampled on.
He Lu was already angry. After being lectured by her uncle, she blamed it all on Shen Xi and Shen Feng.
These classmates were just a group of snobs wanting to curry favor with Shen Feng. She did not want to come over and as she was already exasperated. Coming over was just so embarrassing, but Xia Ze said that they should join them, so she could only hold back her indignation, jealousy, and hatred, and tagged along.
The bar singer was singing on the stage.
He Lu did not want to let Shen Feng and his girlfriend hog the limelight, so she wanted to show off her love with Xia Ze. They were a good-looking couple and were not inferior to Shen Feng and his girlfriend. He Lu looked at Xia Ze and whispered, “Ze, I wanna listen to ‘Confession’.”
This was the song that Xia Ze serenaded her with when he confessed to her. At that time, she was surrounded by flowers, blessings, and looks of envy. It was the happiest moment of her life that she would never forget.
Xia Ze drank a lot of wine and was almost drunk when he snapped his fingers and called out to someone. “Waiter, get the singer to sing ‘Confession’.”
The waiter asked respectfully, “Sir, do you mean ‘Confession’ by Su Muyan?”
Xia Ze impatiently burped and was being rude, “Yes, hurry up and do it!”
When Shen Xi heard that they wanted to play Su Muyan’s “Confession”, a clear mockery flashed before her cold eyes.
“Confession” was Su Muyan’s most popular song. It was quite well-known, especially among the youths. Su Muyan claimed that it was an original written by him and was even praised as a musical talent.
What others did not know but Shen Xi did was that, aside from Su Muyan’s looks, he had zero talent. All of his “original” songs that were supposedly composed by him were actually bought by Su Yi from various channels at high prices.
Soon, the waiter came back with an embarrassed look as he said to Xia Ze, “Sir, our singer said that he can sing anyone’s song, but not Su Muyan’s song. Do you want to pick another song?”
Xia Ze drank too much and could not control himself. He sneered. “What?! Does he think that I can’t pay? Ask him how much he wants. My girlfriend wants to hear this song today, so he has to sing it whether he likes it or not.”
The waiter did not want to create trouble and said, “Sir, please talk to the singer. I still have other tasks to do.”
The bar’s singer had a hot temper.
His singing was really good and could sing everything. He was also good-looking, so many of his fans came over every day to show their support. Many of them were rich women and would throw money at him. If it was not for his ability to make money, the bar manager would have kicked him out because of his bad temper.
