Chapter 91

"Is it Ah Cheng!" Zheng Shaoqiu smiled and said, "Only he would be so straightforward and impetuous!"

"I also think that when two people are together, the most important thing is the feeling, the other person's appearance is secondary." Deng Lijun smiled and said, "But he said that because you are too handsome, if you two get together, you will be put under a microscope by the world. In the eyes of the world, a handsome man and a chubby girl getting together must have some ulterior motive, otherwise, why would a handsome man look at a chubby girl? It doesn't make sense! The world won't care if you two are together because of feelings, they will think you are just making excuses. All because you are too handsome!"

"That's his opinion! What about you? I want to hear your opinion!"

Zheng Shaoqiu had a smile on his face, but Deng Lijun knew he was asking seriously.

Deng Lijun glanced at him and said softly, "I can't really say. It all depends on your own choice. Although I think what he said makes sense, things haven't happened yet. Who knows what the future will bring? Just like us and him. Of course, I am mentally prepared to face the gossip of the world. What about you?"

Zheng Shaoqiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, then said, "What could I possibly want from her?"

"In the eyes of the world, only fame!" Deng Lijun shrugged and smiled, "Although you are very popular now, 'The Book and Sword, Gratitude and Revenge' has pushed your career to a peak, but this is only in Hong Kong and Taiwan, in Southeast Asia. Sister Fatty has already held concerts in Southeast Asia. The world will definitely think that your popularity is due to her..."

"Bullshit! This opportunity was secured by Ah Cheng for me!"

"The world won't care about that!"

"Never mind, let's not talk about this!" Zheng Shaoqiu was somewhat annoyed. Although he and Sister Fatty got along well, they hadn't officially started dating, they just got along well.

Of course, there were some rumors outside, otherwise Wu Cheng wouldn't have known.

Deng Lijun nodded and said seriously, "I can't give you any advice, this is your life. I can only say that if you really can't decide, follow your heart! At least this way, you won't regret it, and you won't have any regrets!"

If Wu Cheng heard Deng Lijun's last words, he would definitely shake his head and think: All the previous words were in vain! If he follows his heart, they would really be together!

Because at this time, Zheng Shaoqiu's thoughts were really on Sister Fatty. Without Guan Jinghua's intervention in the future, Autumn Official probably wouldn't easily marry and then divorce Sister Fatty.

Unfortunately, Wu Cheng didn't hear it! Of course, even if he did, he couldn't say anything. Could he break them up just because he knew what would happen in the future?

Everything depends on Zheng Shaoqiu's own choice. After all, he had already told him through Deng Lijun's mouth about the consequences of them being together. If they still end up together, it's a fate that can't be avoided. No one can help with this.

...

"Ah Long, your eyeballs are about to fall out, stop staring!"

Yuan Biao saw Sheng Long's eyes following Mi Xue's figure and was speechless.

Sheng Long scratched his head awkwardly and said softly, "Am I that obvious?"

Yuan Biao was speechless, and his group of brothers grinned, but seeing his embarrassment, they didn't laugh out loud, only snickered.

"Ah Long, stop looking, I think your chances are slim!" Yuan Hua shook his head and sighed.

Sheng Long frowned, looking somewhat displeased, and said, "Do you look down on me?"

Hong Jinbao happened to walk over, hearing Sheng Long's words, he slapped him on the back of the head and said, "We are brothers, speak nicely, what does Ah Hua mean by looking down on you?"

"Then what does he mean by saying my chances are slim?"

Yuan Kui laughed and put his arm around Sheng Long's shoulder, whispering, "Stupid! Can't you see? If Miss Mi Xue were to choose a boyfriend, wouldn't she compare? Do you think any of the men here can match Ah Cheng? In terms of talent, none of them can, in terms of means, none of them can compare, in terms of handsomeness... well, this one is possible, at least Rong Shao and Autumn Official can match him. In short, Ah Cheng wins in overall strength. If you were Miss Mi Xue, who do you think she would choose?"

"But, but Ah Cheng already has so many..."

"Does a man ever think he has too much money? Women are the same!"

"I mean, she's not that kind of woman!"

Yuan Biao chuckled, "Ah Long, you're in trouble! Your meaning is that sisters like Sister Zhi, Miss Deng Lijun, and Miss Lin Qingxia are that kind of woman?"

"I, I didn't mean that!"

Hong Jinbao laughed and scolded, "Alright, alright, don't talk nonsense! Also, don't spread this around. No matter what, Ah Cheng is our brother, and we still rely on him for a living! If he's not doing well, who will manage the company? We'll be left to starve!"

"Hehe, I was just joking!"

Yuan Hua put his arm around Sheng Long's shoulder and said with a smile, "We know you didn't mean that, but you didn't notice that although Ah Cheng is close to them, nothing is set in stone. Who says other women don't have a chance? As long as they're not married, there's always a chance!"

Yuan Kui whispered with a sly smile, "Actually, even if they're married, there's still a chance!"

Hong Jinbao shook his head and smiled bitterly. These rascals, they really say anything.

...

"Alright, let's eat, everyone come and sit down!" Wu Cheng waved to everyone, "Because of the time constraints and lack of manpower, everyone can only have hotpot, self-service!"

About twenty people, the men crowded at one table, the women at another, the scene was lively.

Zhang Guorong complained, "Young Master Cheng, in such hot weather, you actually make us eat hotpot, only you could think of that. Do you have any iced beer?"

"Plenty of drinks!" Wu Cheng laughed heartily, "Eating hotpot means a lively atmosphere! Today, we're welcoming the two beautiful ladies from the island, let's all raise a glass to them, shall we?"

"Here, cheers!"

Everyone raised their glasses, even the three little girls, including Mei Yanfang, raised their juice glasses to toast with everyone.

As for Zhou Xiaomin, although she was Aunt Chen's daughter, Wu Cheng and the others didn't treat her as an outsider, which made Aunt Chen feel somewhat moved.

Actually, for Wu Cheng, who had the idea of "raising a jade maiden," he definitely wouldn't treat Zhou Huimin as an outsider at this time. Feelings need to be cultivated from a young age to be deep!

However, for a nine-year-old girl, Wu Cheng naturally couldn't do anything. His previous behavior with Lan Jieying was because he was about the same age as her at that time. If it were him now, he definitely wouldn't do such things.

After a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became increasingly lively. Zhang Guorong tapped his bowl with chopsticks and started singing.

"In my heart, there was once a dream,

To use my voice to make you forget all your pain,

In the brilliant starry sky, who is the true hero,

Ordinary people give me the most moving feelings..."

After singing a few lines, everyone asked what the song was.

Zhang Guorong clicked his tongue and said, "Young Master Cheng, can you play the accompaniment for me?"

Wu Cheng looked at Lan Jieying and said, "Yingying, go get the guitar by the piano!"

Lan Jieying responded and ran over, then brought a wooden guitar. Wu Cheng tuned it, strummed a few times, gave Zhang Guorong a thumbs up, and started playing.

Zhang Guorong held a piece of ham as a microphone, put one foot on the chair, and said, "This song is written by Young Master Cheng, it's called 'True Hero,' it's an inspirational song. I'm giving it to everyone now, to encourage you all, I hope you will like it..."

"In my heart, there was once a dream,

To use my voice to make you forget all your pain,

In the brilliant starry sky, who is the true hero,

Ordinary people give me the most moving feelings,

No more hate, no more pain,

May love be found everywhere in the world,

With our songs, we exchange your true smile,

Wishing your life to be different from now on,

Grasp every minute of life,

Strive for the dreams in our hearts,

Without experiencing the storm, how can we see the rainbow,

No one can succeed easily,

Grasp every moment of life,

Embrace your beloved friends warmly,

Let true words and happy tears

Flow in our hearts..."

Zhang Guorong's hoarse voice, singing 'True Hero' by Sheng Long, Zhou Huajian, and Li Zhongsheng, Wu Cheng felt it was quite fitting.

One could say, Zhang Guorong's hoarse voice gave the song a unique sense of沧桑 (cang桑, meaning '沧桑' or 'weathered').

This song needs to be sung by someone with life experience to have the right feel. It requires the沧桑 (cang桑, meaning '沧桑' or 'weathered') feeling after experiencing the ups and downs of life, the simplicity after the glitter has faded, and the authenticity that remains, to be truly moving.

Although Zhang Guorong was still young and hadn't experienced much, his unique voice, combined with his innate musical talent, still made it very moving.

Especially for those who had experienced ups and downs and had achieved success, they were somewhat moved and cherished their current friendships even more.

Thus, when the song came out, it directly conquered everyone present.

Seeing many people fall silent, seemingly savoring the past, Yuan Biao felt the atmosphere was getting cold, so he patted Zhang Guorong's shoulder and laughed, "Young Master Rong, with your performance just now, you could definitely attract countless lonely housewives and young girls in the nightclub!"

Zhang Guorong waved his hand and laughed, "Get lost! I'm not a casual man!"

Sheng Long laughed and said, "I know, I know, as Ah Cheng would say, you're not a casual man, but when you get casual, you're not a man anymore!"

The group of men laughed heartily, while the women glared at Sheng Long, especially Mi Xue gave him a withering look, making Sheng Long feel like he wanted to die to atone for his sin.
