She mustered her courage and called him. It took a long time for the call to go through. âHello?â
âJi Chuan, where⦠where are you now?â Xue Yating asked as she held her breath.
âAt the bar. Whatâs the matter?â
âUhm.â
âWhy donât you come over and look for meâ¦â
An Jichuan told her the name of a bar and the room number. Xue Yating ended the call and drove to the bar.
When she arrived at the bar, the waiter led her to the private room where An Jichuan was. Xue Yating stood at the door and looked inside.
There were a few people sitting inside, drinking. Other than An Jichuan, she also knew a few other people. For example, Mu Chenguang, Wandou, and Qin Yanzhi from the last auction. The other two men were strangers.
âTingting!â
When Wandou realized that it was her, she immediately stood up to welcome her. âPresident An said a friend would come. So heâs talking about you.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYouâre all here!â
Xue Yating had no choice but to follow her into the private room.
Wandou pulled her to the side and sat down. Coincidentally, there was Qin Yanzhi between Xue Yating and An Jichuan. She quickly glanced at An Jichuan.
An Jichuan looked at her and asked, âTina, what do you want to talk to me about?â
âOh, itâs nothing important.â
After sitting down, Xue Yating felt a little regretful. She couldnât say what she was thinking in front of so many people, right?
âThen letâs have fun for a bit. You can sing if you want!â
âIâ¦â
Xue Yating was about to say that she didnât know how to sing, but Wandou had already handed her the microphone. âTingting, they drink, we sing.â
âForget it, you sing! Iâm not good at it.â
âIâve already picked the song. Letâs sing together. Iâm also tone-deaf!â
With Wandouâs invitation, Xue Yating couldnât refuse and sang a song with her, âStart Pointâ.
Xue Yating rarely sang, but that didnât mean she couldnât sing. The moment she opened her mouth, her voice was breathtaking.
âIt hurts when I hug you.
âAnd I will feel lonely
âI could only hear silence when itâs time to leave. What other choice did I have?
âDonât be sorry, donât feel like you owe me.
âNow that he is by your side, treat him betterâ¦â
Wandou looked at her singing and gestured at Mu Chenguang coquettishly. How was this not good at singing?
Xue Yating stopped after she finished singing a part of the song. Wandou took over and the two of them began to sing together.
At the end of the song, Wandou basically stopped singing because she was fascinated by Xue Yatingâs singing.
When the song ended, everyone applauded for her. Qin Yanzhi, who was beside her, was even more generous with his praises. âI didnât expect Miss Xue to not only play the violin well, but also sing with such a beautiful voice.â
âThank you.â
As she thanked him, she stole a glance at An Jichuan. The man was looking at her with a secretive gaze.
âOne more song! I would like to invite Miss Xue to sing a duet! Please help me pick one, Mrs. Mu. Thank you.â
Xue Yating wanted to reject Qin Yanzhiâs invitation, but Wandou had already picked the song.
It was a love song between a man and a woman. She knew how to sing it, but was it appropriate to sing it with Qin Yanzhi?
Xue Yating noticed Qin Yanzhi whispering something into An Jichuanâs ear. An Jichuan looked at her.
âMiss Xue, itâs your turn,â Qin Yanzhi reminded.
She really did not want to sing with Qin Yanzhi, but she had already sung with Wandou just now. If she rejected Qin Yanzhi, she was really afraid of offending a friend, so she could only bite the bullet and sing.
