Huayu 1999: Starting with nothing but getting something for nothing

Yang Che paused for a second before saying, "I've been filming a movie lately and haven't had a chance to write. But seeing Wang Fei just now completed a melody in my head, and I plan to write it down when I get back."

Wang Fei's eyes widened: "Really?"

Yang Che looked at her sincerely: "Of course it's true, how about singing a couple of lines?"

Wang Fei nodded, her heart suddenly racing. She didn't even realize how flustered she looked as she held the wine glass.

The three people watched the two of them silently the whole time.

Until Yang Che coughed lightly and spoke: "Just because I glanced at you in the crowd / I could never forget your face / I dreamed that one day we might meet again / From then on, I began to miss you in solitude..."

Yang Che stopped singing after only four lines because Liu Jialing and Shangshan Shine had come over.

Wang Fei's dazed eyes regained some clarity. She breathed a sigh of relief, but a sense of loss welled up inside her. She really liked the prelude and wanted to know what the lyrics and music were.

When Cherie Chung saw that Yang Che was looking at Liu Jialing and had stopped singing, she urged him, "Keep singing."

Anita Mui chimed in, "Ignore them, just keep singing."

Wang Fei also wanted to urge her, but after coming to her senses, she wanted to remain invisible.

Seeing Liu Jialing's mischievous expression, Yang Che, who had expected to feel awkward, remained remarkably calm: "Sister Jialing, I didn't expect to see you again so soon."

Liu Jialing changed her expression, shaking her head as if hurt: "Looks like I don't have enough influence."

"No, I've never been to a bar before, I'm afraid I'll embarrass myself..."

"..."

So the topic changed, and Liu Jialing plopped down next to Yang Che and began to recount to him how she had texted him to invite him over for drinks.

Upon hearing Liu Jialing say that Yang Che couldn't make it, everyone reacted differently, but Wang Fei became even more flustered.

He thought to himself: Doesn't he have a girlfriend? Could he be just a fan like this Xiao Xie?

Liu Jialing was about to tease Yang Che when Shangshan Shine tilted her head and stretched out her arm over her, saying, "Hello Yang Che, my name is Shangshan Shine."

"Hello, nice to meet you."

Yang Che shook hands briefly, then tried to let go, only to find that the other person was holding on tightly.

Ueyama Shine tilted her head again: "Do you like Wang Fei?"

Yang Che grinned: "Wang Fei is my goddess."

The air momentarily became stuffy, after all, the term "goddess" had not yet become widespread or colloquial at this time.

Ueyama Shine's expression froze for a moment, then she released his hand. She, along with Cherie Chung and Carina Lau, exclaimed in unison, "Wow!"

Wang Fei sighed and looked down, saying, "Damn it, are you crazy?"

As for Tse Ting-Fung, his eyes were red, and he was breathing heavily, looking like he was about to cry. Then he suddenly stood up and said, "Sister Amei, I'm going out for a bit."

Everyone's attention shifted to Xie Tingfeng's face, where he was flushed and his eyes were filled with tears. Yang Che couldn't help but feel sorry for him; he was practically dying of pleasure.

If he weren't afraid of being seen as petty by this group of women, he would have liked to provoke them further, so he simply asked out of curiosity, "Where is Xiao Xie going?"

"snort."

Xie Tingfeng snorted coldly and left in three quick steps.

The atmosphere became slightly awkward for a moment. Yang Che looked at Wang Fei and asked curiously, "Does this young man like you?"

Wang Fei immediately got angry: "What are you doing? Yang Che, we're not that close."

Yang Che looked at her and saw anger, panic, and embarrassment in her eyes. For a moment, his blood boiled, and then he said in front of everyone, "Can we talk alone? Let's go to the private room on the second floor instead of leaving here."

Wang Fei looked at him and panicked even more, at a loss for what to do.

Yang Che gritted his teeth, swallowed hard, reached out and took her hand, then looked at Liu Jialing beside him: "Ladies, please make way."

Liu Jialing and Shangshan Shine stood up in bewilderment to make way for her, and then the group of people watched as Wang Fei, who was also like a robot, was led away from the booth by Yang Che and headed to the second floor.

As I passed a booth, I heard surprised whispers behind me.

"Damn it."

"Is that Wang Fei?"

"Who is that man?"

"......"

Hearing these comments brought Wang Fei back to his senses, and his face flushed instantly. He tried to pull his hand away from hers, but couldn't. Then he felt the effects of the alcohol rising, and he felt dizzy again.

One advantage of having Wang Fei by the hand was that the waiter was particularly proactive in leading the way and even opened an empty private room.

Yang Che looked at the waiter with admiration in his eyes and nodded with a smile.

After the two entered the private room, Wang Fei finally mustered the strength to shake off his hand, leaned against the wall, panting slightly, and looked at him expressionlessly.

Looking into her still clear, bright eyes at thirty, and at her seemingly calm face, Yang Che lowered his head and said very seriously, "I like you."

He truly liked Wang Fei, a liking that had nothing to do with looks, figure, or physical appearance...

Wang Fei looked away, glancing towards the doorway, and said softly, "Don't you have a girlfriend? The one with the round, pretty eyes."

Yang Che ignored that, and instead said, "The song I wrote is called 'Legend,' I'll sing it for you."

Wang Fei's face flushed red again, not from embarrassment, but from shame.

Because she had a feeling that Yang Che was serious when he said she was his goddess, and that he had feelings for her that transcended worldly love.

Yes, when they first met, he didn't feel any awkwardness at all, and he didn't hide the emotions in his eyes in front of his girlfriend; they were so raw and honest.

Wang Fei felt unworthy of such feelings.

Just as she was lost in thought, Yang Che leaned against the other wall and spoke.

".....

When I think of you, you are at the ends of the earth.

When I miss you, you are right in front of me.

When I think of you, you are in my mind

When I think of you, you are in my heart.

I'd rather believe we had a preordained agreement in a past life.

The love story of this lifetime will never change.

I'd rather spend my whole life waiting for you to discover me.

I've always been by your side

Never gone far

......

Yang Che's tone wasn't high, and his pitch was very accurate. Although his voice was still pale, he sang very beautifully. At least Wang Fei thought it was great. She didn't even know when she started watching him sing, nor did she know when she started shedding two tears.

She felt especially warm listening to this song; he was truly a very good person.

Although they had never actually interacted, Wang Fei knew that he was a very good person.

Yang Che didn't finish singing. When he sang the second chorus, he walked up to her, who was somewhat lost in thought, and then cupped her face and kissed her.

Wang Fei gritted her teeth and hesitated for a long time, even punching his chest twice, but at some point she started to respond, and her arms unconsciously wrapped around his neck.
