Chapter 14.3

He instantly felt chilled all over his body, he immediately jumped up from his chair and drew back with a smile, “It…… It’s Young Master Qiao ah. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

He nodded and bowed1 on one side while trying to quickly run away on another side, “I’m disturbing you, I’ll immediately get lost, I’ll immediately get lost.”

Qiao Yang’s voice was clear and cold, “Come back.”

Although he slept in a daze, he also heard the few words this person had said to humiliate Mo Yu.

He understood how hard it was for a 22-year-old college student to earn money by singing in a place like this.

At least he supported Mo Yu when he saw this, so he wouldn’t be bullied by others as much in the future.

“Yes, yes, what are your orders, Young Master Qiao.”

Boss Zhang immediately did not dare to retreat again, and coldness filled his heart.

The Qiao family, a rich and powerful family with hundreds of years of heritage.

Wealth, connections, or social status ‒ those were simply something that a small boss like him could not be compared to.

He regretted so much that he wanted to bang his head against the wall. Why did he have to impulsively provoke that boy.

If the third young master of the Qiao family didn’t let him go tonight, he would either lose his family’s fortune or half his life.

Qiao Yang nudge his jaws towards Mo Yu’s direction slightly, simply stated two words, “Say sorry.”

Would it be alright if he only needed to say ‘sorry’?

Boss Zhang’s heart was ecstatic, and he profusely apologized in front of Mo Yu in a deeply grateful manner, asking for forgiveness.

It was only when Qiao Yang told him to get lost again that he fled in panic. Read this novel only on Foxaholic

Mo Yu lowered his head and continued to play (the piano) and sing, a trace of a warm smile flowing from the corner of his eyes. His heart was filled with emotions. It was some kind of a sense of satisfaction and pride of being protected. His family’s situation was very average, he relied on his own earnings from singing for his college living expenses.

Bars, nightclubs and these kinds of places would inevitably encounter some difficult guests.

For the sake of work, he was also used to this kind of grievance.

It was just that after that night, many people thought he was Qiao Yang’s man.

So Night Charm’s manager raised his salary, the staff members treated him politely and respectfully, and no more customers came to harass him.

There were even people who came over to curry favor from him in order to build connections with the Qiao family.

Just by having a layer of relationship with Qiao Yang could change his life so much.

Mo Yu thought to himself, If I hadn’t been so afraid to agree to go out with him that time, how good it would have been ah.

Qiao Yang asked the bartender to make him a glass of cocktail with a lower strength.

One of his hands was holding a thin steel stick as he stirred the ice cubes, the ice making a jumbled tinkling sound.

One hand propped up his head as he looked at Mo Yu who was playing (the piano) and singing, he said, ” … You have a good voice.”

The barely heard sentence made Mo Yu, who was singing, immediately stop.

He walked over to Qiao Yang’s side, “No, it’s the music you wrote that is good and the lyrics as well. It sounds good no matter how you sing it.”

Qiao Yang’s eyes were unfocused as he murmured in a relaxed manner, “Wrote it for someone.”

Mo Yu’s heart jumped and tensed up as he asked, “Is- is that so? That must be someone very precious to young master Qiao, right?”

Qiao Yang, ” … My elder brother.”

The heart that was tense was immediately relaxed. Read this novel only on Foxaholic

Mo Yu breathed a sigh of relief and tentatively asked, “If Young Master Qiao does not mind it, in the future when you write a song…… I’ll sing it for you okay?”

He was also afraid that Qiao Yang would suspect that he was an inexperienced person, so he quickly self-promoted, “I, I actually also sing on the live broadcast platform, now I’ve also accumulated a lot of fans, I can credit Young Master Qiao as the composer……”

Qiao Yang was drunk, but his head was clear.

Mo Yu’s voice was clear and pure, with a long and pleasant lingering rhythm, which was indeed very similar to his style of writing songs.

He had also composed and sold music to music producers or record album companies. They were sung by the singer to be recorded into music CDs, then it was widely circulated.

That’s right!

Qiao Yang’s heart was enlightened.2

In case that elder brother was really in this world, then one day he might hear his song, and he might be able to find him.

“Maybe.”

Qiao Yang promptly agreed with him, and suggested, “How about we work together?”

“Work together?!”

Mo Yu’s eyes brightened. This nice surprise was simply too ginormous.

But he didn’t dare to believe, and asked, “Ho-how to collaborate ah?”

Qiao Yang thought about it ‒ the him in this world had enough money and status, as well as the connections that came with it.

There was no need to go through a lot of trouble to operate it. He just needed to compose some songs for Mo Yu to sing.

Qiao Yang thought at the same time, “How about setting up a music studio? Please hire someone who is familiar with music, a producer or management team…”

“But don’t get too many people either, because it’s just me composing, and you a singer, that’s all.”

Mo Yu was going crazy with joy. He was able to achieve his dream just like this?!

And it was established specifically for him by Qiao Yang!!

He excitedly grabbed Qiao Yang’s arm, and his eyes were shining brightly, “I’ll definitely sing well for you. To make money for you.”

Qiau Yang let out a faint laugh.

Looking at the person in front of him, Mo Yu suddenly remembered that one time in high school when Qiao Yang pushed him to the school desk and almost kissed him forcibly.

The past memories made him blush slightly, and his heart couldn’t stop beating wildly as he whispered:

“If that’s the case, then you are my benefactor.3 From now on I-…… In the future, I will listen to you on everything. If you want to think……think about that,4 it’s also okay.”

Mo Yu’s voice was like a mosquito’s hum at the end of that sentence. His head nearly stuck to his chest, even his neck was flushed pink. His bashfulness was smoke coming out from all over his body.

“En?” Qiao Yang didn’t understand what he meant by that, “What are you talking about?”

Mo Yu: ……

AAAAHHHH, how would he have the face to say this kind of words the second time ah!!!

He was dying of shame. Qiao Yang unexpectedly didn’t understand what he meant.

“It’s just-…. It’s just…..” His body moved closer towards Qiao Yang. His head was still hanging low, not daring to look at Qiao Yang, “You … if you want to … to do anything to me, I also will not avoid it.”

Qiao Yang: …….

He lifted his hand and swatted Mo Yu on the back of his head, “What nonsense are you talking about. We are friends.”

After he got drunk, his control in strength was not good, Mo Yu bowed his head in pain with a “wu”5, his expression was aggrieved as he look at him(QY):

“Then-, then at that time you were…….” Read this novel only on Foxaholic

“I was not sensible at that time. Did that hit hurt you?”

Qiao Yang quickly reached out his hand to give him a rub.

Not far away, there was a man secretly holding up his cell phone to take a picture, freezing this scene.

Half a minute later, this was the scene that Geng Hui received in a photo, then he said with a gossipy face, “Young Master Qiao ditched the afternoon work, and actually went to the Night charm to meet with his little lover.”

“What?” Gu Ye looked over with a harsh frown.

The author has something to say:

Also refers to the rich. In a broader sense also refers to the person who takes care of another person financially. English equivalent is ‘Sugar Daddy’. For this purpose, this tl will use ‘benefactor’ because the word itself can mean both ‒ sugar daddy and investor.4 Here Mo Yu is referring to the ‘sugar daddy’ meaning of benefactor.5 Pained sound.
