Huayu 1995

Chapter 189 Who Do They Look Down On?! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Thor eventually softened.

Actually, she's a total soft girl, both physically and emotionally, and she can't be tough at all.

She just likes to have a cold face all day long.

So on the second Mid-Autumn Festival, Su Chao was able to wait for dinner at Thor's house.

Thor knows how to cook.

She doesn't know how to cook, and there's nothing she can do about it; these days there aren't many takeout options available.

Su Chao is helping to watch the store.

Little Red Riding Hood returned home from school and watched as a young, artsy woman bought a guitar for over 500 yuan.

"Su Chao, how did you convince her?"

"Call me brother!"

Su Chao unscrewed the bottle cap, took a sip of water, and spent a lot of time explaining.

"You want me to call him brother-in-law, right?"

Little Red Riding Hood chuckled, put down her schoolbag, and pulled up a high stool to sit next to Su Chao.

"Calling me brother-in-law is fine too!"

Su Chao had no objection; he didn't reject the title.

"You should win over my sister first. She's very difficult to deal with, so you probably have no chance."

Little Red Riding Hood pouted, clearly not optimistic about Su Chao.

"why?"

Su Chao was quite curious.

The two sisters run a musical instrument shop, have connections in Hong Kong, and also run various related businesses such as musical instrument acoustic reconstruction.

He must earn a lot of money, otherwise he wouldn't be able to afford a car.

However, their parents were nowhere to be seen.

I don't know if they're not here, or if they've already passed away.

"Lin Zhiqing, you're back but you're not even helping out in the kitchen!"

Thor interrupted their conversation.

"Sigh, all I do every day is go to school or work. What's the difference between me and a maid in ancient times?"

Little Red Riding Hood sighed and listlessly went to help.

"Close the door, dinner's ready."

Thor uttered a single sentence and turned to go back to the backyard.

Su Chao was a little worried that her twisting motion might strain her slender waist due to the excessive weight on her upper body.

How can a person grow up like this?

Even someone like Su Chao, who had seen a lot in his past life, couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn, what a great body!"

After closing the door, I went to the backyard kitchen.

Several dishes were already set on the table.

This wasn't the first time Su Chao had entered their backyard and kitchen; he often brought them fish and breakfast before.

But they all had to shamelessly go to their door themselves.

Unlike now, when Thor sincerely invites him to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

"Sis, Su Chao just sold his guitar."

Little Red Riding Hood helped Su Chao claim credit.

"Oh, how much does it cost?"

Thor was also somewhat surprised; it only took her a short time to cook a meal.

Su Chao actually made a deal.

"I praised her for her talent."

It's really that simple. It's just that Su Chao is too handsome and too sincere, and he was easily persuaded to do business with just a few words.

"Really talented?"

Thor didn't believe it; where did all these talented people come from?

"Of course not. If she really had talent, I would definitely sell it to her for over a thousand."

Su Chao was perfectly justified.

"Haha~"

I'm used to it, I'm really used to it.

Thor had to admit that Su Chao was indeed very capable.

They always manage to do something unexpected.

That's probably why he stands out from the crowd.

Yeah, even their shamelessness surpasses others.

"Sister~"

Thor's house has a small dining table, usually for two people to eat. When three people sit there, it's already impossible to keep their distance.

Su Chao turned his head like that, and they got very close.

"What are you doing? Speak properly."

Thor shrank back. Knowing Su Chao as she did, she knew that such a disgusting tone meant he was trying to borrow money again.

"The training course issue must have delayed a lot of your business, right?"

They get up late in the morning, go to class in the afternoon, and close early at night. It would be a miracle if this music store could make any money.

Su Chao really felt guilty.

You're telling me to buy a piano that costs as much as someone else's annual income on installments.

A sum of 100,000 yuan, equivalent to twenty or thirty years of someone else's income, can be lent out without hesitation.

A Rolex would be a perfect birthday gift.

In today's internet age, your behavior would definitely earn you the label of a "female simp" from netizens.

Yeah, and she's especially love-obsessed.

However, you didn't harm me. You didn't even ask for a title.

Isn't this just like the People's Liberation Army defeating India, only to withdraw its troops?

Who are you looking down on?
"You're overthinking it. I don't make a living from this."

How much profit is there in a piano that costs several hundred yuan?

Thor mainly sells high-end products, costing at least several thousand or even tens of thousands.

Many of the best musical instruments in the northern music scene, whether guitars or other instruments, are made by her. One transaction can be equivalent to several months' income for other music stores.

"That would definitely disrupt business. I was thinking of giving you more shares. Do you want the advertising company or the film and television company in Hong Kong?"

Su Chao can trick others, but he can't trick Thor.

After causing so many troubles, he started to feel guilty.

He may be shameless, but that doesn't mean he has no bottom line.

"No need, I don't need the money."

Thor stared at Su Chao for a few seconds, but sighed inwardly.

She treats Su Chao so well because Su Chao is so sincere.

At first, it aroused her appreciation and pity for talent, and later she became more and more involved.

Even when introducing Su Chao to Casablanca, it was like sending a cat to have its testicles removed, with no forgetting to greet the owner.

She knew Su Chao was a master liar.

However, Su Chao is truly talented. Whether it's writing songs, performing in bars, or running training classes, he does everything with great skill and competence.

As for Su Chao wanting to pursue her, she didn't take it too seriously.

At the age of seventeen or eighteen, when you meet a pretty girl, you'll always have some unusual thoughts, but how much of it is genuine affection?

Besides, I've helped him so much.

Moreover, when Su Chao teased her, he always used a half-joking tone.

It wouldn't be appropriate for her to explicitly refuse.

She definitely had to refuse; that little brat was three years younger than her.

Moreover, she has never planned to get married in her life.

"Tsk tsk, not short of money..."

Su Chao didn't know what to say. Why wasn't he the one who could say such things?

"You're making a movie, right? If you don't have enough money, you can find someone in Hong Kong and I'll ask him to invest some for you."

When Lin Zhimeng was at the company, she heard that Su Chao was going to Hong Kong to make a movie.

"Who is it?"

Su Chao thought to herself, "I hope it's not my boyfriend. Otherwise, if he goes to Hong Kong, I'll definitely put him in a sack, stuff him in an iron barrel, fill him with cement, and then throw him into Victoria Harbour."

"What's that expression on your face?"

Thor, for some reason, immediately knew what Su Chao was thinking.

"We are indeed quite short of money..."

Su Chao said seriously.

Sigh, it's a problem when women are too smart.

They say big breasts mean no brains. With breasts this big, you shouldn't have any intelligence to speak of, so how come you're so smart?

“Our uncle runs a musical instrument business in Hong Kong and Taiwan. He owns several shops. If you don’t need much, I can ask him to invest some money in you. After all, he’s in business too.”

It's rare for Thor to say so much.

After all, we were talking about serious business.

"Sis, do you think I can make money making movies?"

Su Chao suddenly realized that he was talking about her uncle, who was in the musical instrument business and had expanded to Hong Kong and Taiwan. It seemed that his business was quite large.

"Just ask, but don't get so close to me."

Thor was practically huddled up with his sister, trembling with fear.

"Your dining table is too small. I'll buy you a new one later."

Su Chao was annoyed by the table.

“There are only two of us eating in our family, why would we need such a big table? I think you want the table to be smaller so you can sit in my sister’s lap to eat.”

Little Red Riding Hood chuckled.

Then the next second she was hit with a chopstick.

Before Su Chao could finish asking Thor, his phone rang.

Without making a fuss about answering the phone elsewhere, Su Chao pressed the answer button directly, only to find that it was Andy Lau calling him.

Andy Lau is going to Hong Kong in a couple of days, why is he so impatient?

"Chao Zai, are you not busy? Just a heads-up, when you come to Hong Kong, be careful not to show your face. You know how terrifying the paparazzi in Hong Kong are."

"Really? My album is that popular in Hong Kong?"

Su Chao was completely confused by what he said.

He knew that Hong Kong paparazzi were terrifying, but he had only released one album, and it hadn't even been half a month yet, so generally it was impossible for the media to pay attention to it.

Chan Kin-tim also said that the album can be sold in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but the sales are relatively average and it hardly made it onto any charts.

This is actually the normal phenomenon.

Even if a new singer has a good song, it takes time for it to spread. How fast can word of mouth spread?

This is 1995, not 2015.

"It's not because of the album, but because of your...rumored affair with the princess."

Andy Lau naturally didn't believe it, but Hong Kong media had already started reporting on it. Since it involved the princess, it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before the media coverage would be overwhelming.

And this rumored love interest, whose face has been revealed, will no longer be a secret.

After all, once you've read the newspaper and bought Su Chao's album, you can tell from the cover that they are the same person.

Many Hong Kong media outlets may have already started revising their articles.

Su Chao will definitely be unable to hide it then.
