Chapter 124 Saying One Thing but Doing Another [Second Update]

After downing a large glass of ice-cold beer in several gulps, Wang Jia's flushed face wasn't immediately obvious in the dim lighting of the shop, but her dazed eyes revealed that she was drunk.

I saw Wang Jia slumped over the table.

"Uh... I really didn't expect her alcohol tolerance to be so low." In Qin Shiya's understanding, people who are in the entertainment industry must have a lot of social engagements, so even if her alcohol tolerance is low, she should be able to hold her liquor after one or two times.

Someone with Wang Jia's alcohol tolerance would be in great danger outside!

Like Qin Shiya, her alcohol tolerance was honed, and most men were no match for her.

"Let her sleep for a while, we'll eat." Chen Wei took off his coat and draped it over Wang Jia.

"It's quite warm." Qin Shiya covered her mouth and grinned mischievously.

Chen Wei didn't take her words to heart, picked up a skewer, and started eating it by himself.

"Boss lady, where's that young man who used to sing for money today? He just doesn't seem to be doing the same thing." Someone said.

"My son is about to take his exams and is busy studying. He doesn't have time to sing," the proprietress explained.

"Tsk, why bother with studying? The point of studying is to earn more money. I think your son could totally go on a talent show and become a star. Money would flow in like water."

"Come on, my son is going to be a scientist, not a celebrity." The proprietress rolled her eyes.

"A scientist? A scientist is fine too, it's about contributing to the country." The man nodded in agreement.

"Hey guys, anyone know how to sing? Let's go up and sing a song," someone suggested.

Qin Shiya turned her gaze back to Chen Wei, "Aren't you going up there and show them your strength?"

She had heard that Chen Wei had several songs that were very popular recently, but she had been too busy to listen to them in person.

Chen Wei shook his head, "It's not worth singing for free."

"That's true." Qin Shiya thought about it and agreed. Someone of Chen Wei's level would have an appearance fee of at least tens of millions.

Why sing for free?
"Then I'll make a fool of myself and sing 'Little Dimples,' which is really popular online right now." Someone, emboldened by the alcohol, went up on stage and turned on the speakers.

The proprietress was busy serving customers and didn't have time to manage them, so letting them enjoy themselves was fine, saving her from constantly complaining about not being able to drink.

"Cough cough cough!" He cleared his throat, making it sound quite professional.

But the moment the song started...

It was so quiet, deathly quiet, that it felt like a graveyard, not a night market.

What exactly is that guy on stage who's wailing and howling like a banshee?
When other people sing "Little Dimples," it's a heartfelt confession; you're just giving them a breakup tip every day!

"Woo woo woo..." After finishing the song, the person even dragged out a long note in a very evocative way.

"Where's the applause?" he asked, puzzled.

"I didn't throw your beer bottle out of friendship, and you still want applause?"

"You almost gave me a proper rite of passage."

"Dude, take my advice, stop singing. We're in good physical condition, but if someone else wasn't, you'd be a murderer."

……

"puff"

Upon hearing these words, Qin Shiya couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand and burst into laughter, her eyes like crescent moons, incredibly captivating.

Chen Wei could clearly feel that many eyes were being cast in his direction.

He was already used to this kind of pressure.

Compared to the dazzling display by Su Qingyue and the others, this was just a small spectacle.

"The restroom is over there," Qin Shiya reminded Chen Wei as he stood up.

Chen Wei did not answer, but instead walked onto the stage, facing the gaze of the crowd.

"Excuse me, can I sing first?" he asked.

"Okay, please." The man stepped off the stage.

"You've been on TV before, why did you let him have it?" a friend said, indignantly.

"It's alright, it'll all be the same sooner or later," the young man replied. In fact, he would rather have someone else make him look good.

I thought no one would take the stage, but now that someone is, it doesn't matter if I step down.

They will eventually become stepping stones.

His friends were already prepared to boo Chen Wei.

Qin Shiya looked on with anticipation.

I want to see just how capable Chen Wei really is.

Chen Wei's gaze fell on the slightly dusty guitar, and then he asked the shopkeeper, "Can I use this?"

"Sure." Anyway, it's secondhand and not worth much, otherwise it wouldn't be here.

"call"

After blowing off the dust, Chen Wei adjusted his position and realized that if he chose to sing and play an instrumental piece, he wouldn't have a free hand to hold the microphone.

Qin Shiya had sharp eyes; she immediately ran onto the stage, took the microphone from Chen Wei, and said, "I'll help you."

"Thank you."

"What a beauty!" The crowd below the stage stared in disbelief.

"I once dreamed of wandering the world with a sword, to see the world's splendor. The heart of youth is always a little impetuous. Now you call the world your home. The girl who once made your heart ache has now quietly disappeared. Love always makes you yearn for it yet also trouble you. It once left you battered and bruised..."

The moment the song began, everyone's attention was instantly captivated.

Silence, a silence unlike any in a graveyard, filled the air; everyone wore expressions of profound shock.

"Whenever I feel sad, I look at the sea alone and think of my friends walking on the road. How many of them are waking up? Let's drink this glass. A good man's heart is as vast as the sea. Having experienced all aspects of life and the coldness and warmth of the world, this smile is warm and pure."

These lyrics and the voice truly resonated with people's hearts.

With equipment costing only a few dozen yuan, they managed to produce an epic effect.

"It goes perfectly with alcohol, it's so damn good with alcohol!"

"This guy is awesome."

"Don't you guys think he looks familiar?"

"Looks familiar?" I rubbed my eyes to clear my head and slowly focused my gaze.

Snapped!
He slammed his hand on the table and stood up, shouting, "Chen, Chen Wei!"

As soon as the name "Chen Wei" was uttered, more and more people recognized him.

It boiled instantly!
Looking at Qin Shiya on the microphone stand, she stared intently at Chen Wei, feeling as if he were radiating light, dazzling and impossible to look away from.

It's just like a moth drawn to a flame.

"……"youth.

He was feeling extremely miserable.

I thought it would be a stepping stone, but it's clearly a mountain, and one that's destined to be insurmountable.

No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain.

"Don't be too sad. They're not on the same level as us." A friend put his arm around the young man's shoulder and comforted him.

The young man wished he were a woman so he could cry his heart out and feel so wronged.

"Let's play one more!"

"Yeah, one more time, I haven't heard enough yet."

"Does anyone have a video recording? Send me a copy."

Chen Wei shook his head and refused when everyone asked him to do it again.

"I've noticed that you're actually a hypocrite," Qin Shiya said as she sat back down.
