The younger generation, starting from where the wind blows...

Chapter 316 Two Kings and Four Twos, how can you lose?
As soon as Shana put down her phone, she looked up and met Xia Chengsi's scrutinizing gaze.

"Ke Ze agreed?"

"Unless he completely disregards Pei Shi, does he have any other choice?"

Xia Chengsi pointed out incisively, "But you don't seem happy to me."

Shana shrugged noncommittally.

She felt she should be happy to be able to work with Ke Ze.

But actually it doesn't.

This made Shana start to reflect on her previous infatuation with Koze.

Ultimately, it's because they genuinely like it.

Or is it simply that he enjoys competing with outstanding girls like Pei Shi for things?

Shana felt that the latter possibility was more likely.

Now that Pei Shi has suddenly stopped competing with her, Xia Na suddenly feels that things are no longer interesting.

Things that are too easily obtained are naturally not cherished.

Not to mention that it was voluntarily given up by the competitors.

Its nature is equivalent to pitiful charity.

This is the most unacceptable thing for Shana.

If it were only for her own sake, Shana would not agree to participate in the performance of this song.

Shana did this purely for Xia Chengsi.

Xia Na could tell that Xia Chengsi genuinely liked the song "The Wind Rises," otherwise he wouldn't have insisted on facilitating this collaboration even though he knew Pei Shi's intentions were impure.

That's precisely why Shana wanted to get involved.

It wasn't for myself, nor for Ke Ze.

She wanted to protect her brother and not let Pei Shi have any chance of becoming her sister-in-law.

Of course, such thoughts were nothing to Xia Chengsi.

Just then, Xia Chengsi's cell phone, which was on his desk, rang.

Shana picked it up first, glanced at it, and then handed it to Xia Chengsi.

"It was Sheng Zhe Ning who called."

Xia Chengsi took the phone, answered it, and held it to his ear.

"Have you taken care of the thing you asked me to find out?"

“You have other things to do.”

Are you free tomorrow afternoon? Let's get together.

Xia Chengsi raised an eyebrow, the words "no time" already on the tip of his tongue, but Sheng Zhe Ning on the other end of the phone spoke first.

"Just me and Ye Luming, oh right, Yang Muye is back too, mainly to discuss our live streaming on Panda TV."

When Xia Na, who had been eavesdropping nearby, heard the name "Yang Muye," her eyes lit up immediately.

Seeing his younger sister's eager expression, as if trying to persuade him to agree, Xia Chengsi helplessly raised his hand to adjust his glasses.

"Time and place".

"I'll send it to you tomorrow after I order it."

Sheng Zhe Ning seemed afraid that Xia Cheng Si would change his mind, so he prepared to hang up the phone after saying this.

Xia Chengsi called out to him.

"I'm planning to ask someone to go with me tomorrow, is that okay?"

Sheng Zhe Ning immediately guessed who that person was.

"Shana?"

"Correct."

"If I say no, are you going to stop coming?" Sheng Zhening's voice was full of helplessness.

"I just wanted to let you know, that's all for now, I'm hanging up." Xia Chengsi said and hung up the phone.

As soon as he put down his phone, Shana ran up and hugged his arm.

"Long live my brother!"

Xia Chengsi looked at his younger sister with a doting expression.

“I don’t object to you wanting to get to know Yang Muye, but let’s make it clear beforehand that we shouldn’t mention Pei Shi or the song ‘The Wind Rises’.”

Shana immediately raised her hand in assurance.

"Don't worry, brother, I definitely won't mention it, but I don't know if Sheng Zhe Ning will let it slip."

"I will let him know in advance."

Xia Chengsi spoke, plugging the last loophole.

Shana nodded, already starting to think about what she should wear tomorrow.

It's clear she's quite looking forward to this meeting.

-

The next day, around 3 p.m., a taxi stopped in front of the Changsheng Hotel.

The doorman was about to open the car door when the lobby manager gave him a wink and stopped him.

Sheng Zhe Ning quickly stepped forward and opened the car door.

After getting out of the car, Yang Muyi looked Sheng Zhe Ning up and down.

"What's the occasion? The hotel's heir is personally greeting guests at the door!"

"I'm just trying to show how much I value this gathering," Sheng Zhe Ning explained with a smile.

That expression clearly tells you he's lying.

Yang Muyi was too lazy to expose him and stepped into the lobby.

Sheng Zhe Ning quickly stopped the person.

Yang Muyi asked in surprise, "What, am I the first one to arrive?"

"Ye Luming is already inside. Please wait for me a moment. The person I arranged to meet will be here soon."

"The heir of the Shengxia Group?"

"Yes, I should call him cousin according to seniority. By the way, he didn't come alone. His sister Shana came too. I'm more familiar with that girl."

"Childhood sweetheart?"

No, no!
Sheng Zhe Ning shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum.

Because he and Shana had known each other since childhood, their relationship never progressed to that stage.

They know each other too well, and neither of them feels comfortable making a move.

"My cousin is quite arrogant, but he has the right to be arrogant. It's not just because he's the heir to the Shengxia Group, but more importantly because he's been working very hard since he was a child. He's highly skilled at both the violin and the piano. In his eyes, I'm just an incompetent guy, and he usually ignores me."

Then why would you go out of your way to lick their boots?

After seeing through Yang Muyi's thoughts, Sheng Zhe Ning immediately clarified.

I wasn't very close to Xia Chengsi before, but since we were relatives, we would run into each other during holidays and family gatherings.

In the past, it was all just playing along and going through the motions.

But today is different.

Xia Chengsi came to this gathering voluntarily, and all of this was thanks to Yang Muye.

"The moment I mentioned your name, his attitude completely changed, so you have to stay and help me out."

No wonder he specially opened the car door for me today.

Those who offer unsolicited favors are either up to no good or are thieves.

Just as Yang Muyi was thinking this, a Bentley drove up to the hotel entrance.

As soon as the car came to a stop, the doorman looked at the lobby manager standing to the side.

Will the Crown Prince still personally open the car door this time?
"What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and open the car door for the guest!"

The lobby manager reprimanded in a low voice.

The doorman quickly stepped forward and opened the car door.

As he stepped out of the car with his left leg, Xia Chengsi, dressed in a sharp suit and exuding undeniable handsomeness, alighted from the vehicle.

Sheng Zhe Ning immediately went to greet him warmly.

He originally wanted to hug Xia Chengsi, but Xia Chengsi only agreed to shake hands with him.

Cousin, that's a bit harsh!
Just as the two shook hands, the doorman went around to the other side of the car and opened the door. A slender and eye-catching leg stepped out of the car first, followed by another.

The owner of the legs is estimated to be close to 1.7 meters tall, with long, wavy hair that appears to be casually draped over his shoulders, but is actually carefully styled by a stylist.

A pink knit sweater paired with a silver sequined pencil skirt and Chanel-style chunky heeled Mary Janes.

With her pure and sweet face, she has the look of a college-school chaebol heiress from a Korean drama.

Even Sheng Zhe Ning, who claimed to be so close to Xia Na that he couldn't bring himself to do it, was taken aback when he saw her get out of the car dressed like this.

"Oh, whose young lady is this? I've never seen her before."

Sheng Zhe Ning started joking with Xia Na as soon as he opened his mouth.

Shana glared at Sheng Zhening with annoyance.

If your eyes are useless, just donate them!

Xia Chengsi's gaze passed over Sheng Zhe Ning and looked at Yang Muye, who was standing at the door.

Shana is the same.

Sheng Zhe Ning quickly turned around and introduced them to the two.

"This is Yang Muye, my good buddy. I don't need to introduce him much. You can easily find tons of information about him online. In short, he's incredibly awesome!"

After saying that, he turned to Yang Muye and introduced Xia Chengsi and Xia Na, the brother and sister.

The two shook hands under the introduction of Sheng Zhe Ning.

Despite Xia Na's fierce demeanor in front of Sheng Zhening just now, she is more ladylike than a lady right now.

Her smile was sweet and approachable, completely different from the person Sheng Zhe Ning usually knew.

Xia Chengsi had seen Yang Muye's photos online before. Although they were not very clear, it was still clear that Yang Muye was good-looking.

Seeing him in person now, I found that he was even less photogenic than those photos online.

Even Xia Chengsi, who was always confident in his looks, admitted that Yang Muye was three points more handsome than him.

After the two sides shook hands, Sheng Zhe Ning warmly invited everyone to go into the hotel together.

As they passed through the lobby, Sheng Zhening, estimating that he was close to Yang Muye, quietly reminded him:
"Ye Luming didn't come alone today, so don't be too surprised when you see him later."

Yang Muye raised an eyebrow.

What do you mean?
With Xia Chengsi and Xia Na by his side, Sheng Zhe Ning couldn't elaborate further.

Because he had already seen Shana casting a curious glance in their direction.

The four of them walked into the lobby bar next door.

As soon as you enter, you see Ye Luming sitting at a square table not far from the entrance, raising his hand to greet you.

Yang Muye's gaze then fell on the woman next to Ye Luming.

What the hell!

It was Amy.

Even if Yang Muye had seen He Fanxing sitting with Ye Luming, he wouldn't have been as surprised as he is now.

Sheng Zhe Ning looked at the stunned Yang Muye, then whispered in Yang Muye's ear:
"I asked him, and he said that he would have to find actors after starting the live stream anyway, like calling Amy back. He said that good girls should not be let down and bad girls should not be wasted. He also said that this saying was taught to him by the founder... By the way, who is this founder?"

"Lu Xiaobu!"

Anyway, Yang Muye would never admit that he had said this to Ye Luming.

The key point is that Yang Muye really didn't expect Ye Luming to have such a "no-waste method"!
WTF?

Sheng Zhe Ning looked completely bewildered.

Shana turned around, her beautiful eyes curiously scanning their surroundings: "What are you two boys whispering about over there?"

Sheng Zhe Ning immediately put on a stern face.

Young girls shouldn't pry into men's business.

The four of them walked together to Ye Luming's seat, and Ye Luming also stood up with Amy.

After Ye Luming finished introducing the two sides, he was surprised to find that so many people were sitting at one table when he sat down.

Sheng Zhe Ning waved and called over a waiter from the lobby bar.

"Could you help us put the tables together?"

The waiter was new and didn't recognize Sheng Zhe Ning, so he answered very politely:
"Excuse me, sir, we do not offer shared table service here."

Sheng Zhe Ning was completely stunned.

No, you're really new here?

Fortunately, the lobby bar manager noticed something was wrong and immediately ran over.

"Young Master Ning, she just arrived yesterday. You can just tell me what you need."

Seeing that Xia Na was already covering her mouth and snickering, Sheng Zhening felt even more embarrassed.

But it is precisely at times like these that you must not lose your temper.

After all, Yang Muyi was still watching from the side, and it would only be a bad idea for him to show off at this time.

"We can't fit everyone here, could you please help us share a table?"

The more polite Sheng Zhe Ning's voice was, the more nervous the supervisor became.

"No problem, Young Master Ning, please wait a moment."

The supervisor immediately waved over two male waiters and helped them put the table together.

After inviting the others to sit down, Sheng Zhe Ning thanked the supervisor and was the last to sit down.

As soon as the foreman left, Ye Luming joked with Sheng Zhening:

"Wow, to see something like this happen in your own hotel, you really pulled a fast one this time!"

Sheng Zhe-ning immediately clarified:
"No, what are you thinking? This really wasn't my arrangement."

Ye Luming immediately corrected him:

"I know this wasn't your doing. I could tell from your reaction just now. Your acting skills aren't that good."

Shana, who was standing nearby, expressed her strong agreement.

Just as Sheng Zhe Ning was about to continue proving his innocence, Yang Muyi's phone suddenly rang.

Yang Muyi took out his phone and saw that it was Hu Ling calling. He apologized to everyone and walked to the side with his phone.

As soon as the call connected, Hu Ling asked where Yang Muye was.

Sensing something was off about Hu Ling's tone, Yang Muye raised an eyebrow.

"Just having coffee with some friends outside, what's up?"

"I just received a call from the Spring Festival Gala production team."

"is it?"

Yang Muye's tone carried a hint of surprise: "You invited Xin Huimei?"

Xin Huimei's new album "The Rest of My Life" was released in late October, which unfortunately coincided with a battle of the titans.

First, on October 14th, Jay Chou launched his ninth original album, "Capricorn".

Four days later, JJ Lin's "JJ Lu" was released to great acclaim.

The title tracks from the two albums, "The Promised Happiness" and "Little Dimples," began to dominate various charts.

A true battle of gods!
Just when everyone thought that Xin Huimei's "The Rest of My Life" would become cannon fodder on the battlefield, a very absurd scene appeared on various music charts.

Jay Chou and JJ Lin took turns holding the top two spots, while the third place fluctuated between Mayday and S.H.E. The fourth place remained firmly in place.

Xin Huimei's new album's title track, "The Rest of My Life," surpassed many of this year's hit songs, firmly securing fourth place.

In addition, songs such as "Say Goodbye When You Want," "Guest," "Seats," "Compromise," "Decent," and "There's a Regret Called Us" also made the list one after another.

On some charts, you can even see the top five being fiercely contested, while the bottom five are dominated by songs from Shin Hye-mi's new album.

Before the year is even over, this album has already been hailed by industry insiders as the biggest surprise of the year in the Chinese music scene.

To be precise, it was frightened.

Other singers only have one or two hit songs, but every song on Xin Huimei's album could be considered a hit song.

This tactic has completely baffled those in the industry.

With her dazzling performances that have taken the music scene by storm thanks to her new album, it's really not surprising that Xin Huimei received an invitation from the Spring Festival Gala production team.

Hu Ling then told Yang Muye.

The Spring Festival Gala production team not only invited Xin Huimei, but also Old Boys and Sisters Who Make Waves.

Although they may not be selected for the show, it also proves how popular the "Old Boys" and "Sisters Who Make Waves" groups of internet celebrities are now.
