Chapter 44 Warmth
Just as An Qiuli and Li Suifeng were messing around.
Wang Lele suddenly spoke up.
"Huh? How is it Lin Xingchen?"
"Yeah, he actually joined this show too."
Li Xue echoed.
Li Suifeng was attracted by the commotion over there, easily prying off the delicate hand pinching his neck, as the other party hadn't really used any force to begin with.
Then he looked over with a curious expression.
"You guys know him?"
Li Suifeng pointed at Lin Xingchen on the TV.
"We know him. He is backed by the gold-medal composer, Senior Lin, who wanted to sell a song to Yinyin last time, but the condition was for Yinyin to manufacture a scandal with Lin Xingchen."
Wang Lele, not afraid of making things bigger, ignored Han Yayin's subtle eye signals and blurted out the whole story.
"And then?"
Li Suifeng blurted out.
"Yinyin obviously wouldn't agree. Oh right, that was the same day you wrote that song for Yinyin."
"Isn't that just a toad wanting to eat swan meat?"
An Qiuli spoke up first; she had clearly just learned about this as well.
"Qiuli is right."
Li Suifeng echoed, then turned to look at Han Yayin, meeting her gaze just in time, looking at that cold, stunning face.
He thought to himself:
"Although I'm not a toad, I would like to eat this swan meat too."
Feeling his intense gaze, Han Yayin immediately turned her head away and looked at An Qiuli.
Remembering that matter from just now, An Qiuli ran over and pinched Li Suifeng's ear.
"Li Suifeng has already done that for you, so in the future, if you need a song, just look for him and let him write it for you."
"No, An Qiuli, make yourself clear. What did I do to Yayun? Don't slander me."
Hearing her words, Han Yayin began to blush. She wasn't wearing makeup today, and the faint flush on her face looked like light makeup on her fair skin.
"You two, stop messing around!"
In fact, Han Yayin didn't even know Lin Xingchen was on the show, because when he went on stage, she was thinking about Li Suifeng and hadn't paid attention to the performance.
The sharp-eyed An Qiuli naturally noticed her best friend's odd behavior. Based on what she knew of Han Yayin, she was likely fond of Li Suifeng, and An Qiuli felt a sense of her own cabbage being rooted up by a pig.
So, the delicate hand pinching Li Suifeng's ear squeezed even harder.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, go easy, An Qiuli."
Li Suifeng met her threatening gaze, and feeling guilty, the latter half of his sentence was significantly quieter.
Wang Lele felt that the room was very warm at this moment.
"Are you going to admit it or not? Are you going to write it or not!"
An Qiuli said.
"You can't threaten people like this."
Li Suifeng protested.
Then An Qiuli applied a little more force.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, I admit it, I'll write it, isn't that enough?"
Actually, even if An Qiuli hadn't said anything, he would have written it. Putting aside his feelings for Han Yayin, on the other hand, he wanted to tease the little rich woman. Plus, she had gifted him a luxury mansion, so he had to give her some face.
Although it hadn't been directly transferred, judging by her attitude, it was really no different from giving it away for free. Plus, there were the 30% shares of the studio; even if she wasn't short on money, this was still a favor.
Moreover, ever since he arrived in this world, An Qiuli was the first person to recognize him.
If it weren't for her, it would have been almost impossible for his four songs to fetch such a price.
Did he really think everyone in the world was a good person? Especially that group of businessmen at Tencent Music.
However, the reality was just like that. From the very beginning, An Qiuli had investigated Li Suifeng. She was simply curious about how an ordinary junior student could suddenly undergo such a huge transformation, and then she just went with the flow, leading to what happened later.
However, both of them were very shocked that, through a twist of fate, their relationship had suddenly progressed to this point.
On the other side, Han Yayin saw Li Suifeng clearly in pain and felt a bit sympathetic, but his answer made her inexplicably happy.
What made her happy wasn't that he was going to write a song for her, but that he had admitted it.
Did she like this man? If she had to say she liked him, she didn't really know, because she had never dated since she was a child and knew nothing about romantic love.
If she were to say she didn't like him, that was even more impossible. From the very first glance, her feelings for this young man were different from any other man; there was always a force driving her to get closer to him.
Therefore, whenever he made a request, she would always find herself unable to help but agree, even if her first reaction was to refuse.
As for An Qiuli, although she didn't want to believe it, the fact was that it had happened, and she couldn't stop it.
She wouldn't stop it either. If it were any other man trying to woo her best friend, she would definitely spare no cost to break off their relationship.
But she had a very good impression of Li Suifeng and felt that he had an indescribable magic about him.
He was more pleasing to the eye than any man she had ever met before.
Because other people were either coveting her beauty or trying to latch onto her family's connections.
If she had a defensive line, Li Suifeng happened to be someone who would always stand outside that line while interacting with her; he wouldn't probe, nor would he overstep.
In fact, Li Suifeng didn't think that much; he just simply felt that it was very comfortable to get along with this young lady who had no airs about her.
Unknowingly, An Qiuli had already let go of Li Suifeng and sat back on the sofa.
When she was messing around with Li Suifeng just now, she had done it almost reflexively, and that feeling was very strange.
Seeing An Qiuli looking preoccupied, Li Suifeng didn't disturb her and continued watching the competition.
The other three people clearly hadn't noticed this scene.
After watching for a while, someone who surprised Li Suifeng appeared on the TV.
"Next, let us welcome contestant number 98."
Number 98 was Wang Yufei. As for why he hadn't noticed her at the time, it was simply because there were too many people, and Li Suifeng hadn't deliberately tried to recognize anyone; after all, there were 108 people at the time.
Wang Yufei, on the other hand, had noticed Li Suifeng, but fearing that General Manager Situ Sheng would find out, she could only watch.
When Li Suifeng admitted on stage that the "you" was present, Wang Yufei thought he was talking about her. She thought she would show some mercy and find Li Suifeng to chat when no one was paying attention, asking him to write a song for her.
But when there were still two or three people left in the first half of the recording, Li Suifeng had already left early, and she couldn't find him anywhere.
"It's actually her."
Li Suifeng muttered while looking at the TV.
An Qiuli was sitting close by and happened to hear him, so she looked at the name on the TV information display.
Since she had investigated Li Suifeng, she naturally knew this woman was his ex-girlfriend. She didn't know when they had broken up, but she knew this woman had long been General Manager Situ Sheng's girlfriend.
However, she was curious about Li Suifeng's attitude toward this ex-girlfriend, so she wanted to probe indirectly to see.
"What? You know this Wang Yufei?"
Hearing the commotion over here, Wang Lele looked over with a gossipy expression, as did Li Xue, while Han Yayin felt an inexplicable tightness in her heart, but she didn't show any abnormality on her face.
Seeing so many people looking over, Li Suifeng didn't have anything to hide.
"I know her. She's my ex-girlfriend."
Upon hearing this answer, Han Yayin suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable. She didn't know why, but she unconsciously looked at the TV and memorized Wang Yufei's appearance.
