I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 546 As long as you can afford the price, I can sing all night!

Sitting on the business jet bound for the United Kingdom, Afif and Ye Xian didn't exchange many words, after all, the plane was full of big shots. When they were about to disembark, staff members distributed schedules to them.

Aside from the welcome dinner on the first day and the farewell banquet on the last day, Ye Xian only had to attend the graduation ceremony of Green Vine Alliance University, while Afif had to attend a financial investment seminar.

Aside from this, you can choose whether or not to participate in other activities of the exchange group. If you do not participate, you can stay in the hotel or go sightseeing on your own. However, you must report your destination in advance to avoid any problems.

This is an informal exchange delegation, not of particularly high rank, but it is still a symbol of status and prestige. Those who can enter the delegation are all industry leaders.

"This is awesome! I have free time. I definitely need to book the Emma Show. I'll book the tickets now."

After looking at the schedule, Afif happily picked up his phone and sent a few messages. By the time Ye Xian looked up from the schedule, Afif was already showing him the tickets: "Look, tomorrow night, VIP seats, first row, the kind where you can go on stage."

"Go on stage? What for?"

Ye Xian was completely confused. Wasn't this a show? Audience members could also go on stage.

Seeing Ye Xian's bewildered expression, Afif realized, "You're still a novice? Don't you even know that?"

Ye Xian was even more confused: "What do you mean?"

Afif couldn't help but chuckle softly. He glanced at the other passengers on the plane, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he patted Ye Xian on the shoulder and said, "It's nothing special. I'll show you something different tomorrow night."

Ye Xian shook his head, ignoring him, and began to deal with his own affairs.

This is a private jet with a dedicated network that connects to the domestic network, allowing the company to handle many matters on board even when they are away.

Seeing that Ye Xian was so boring, Afif didn't bother to tease him anymore and instead sent the message to his sister.

[Afif: My dear sister, I've discovered that Ye Xian is probably still a virgin.]

[Hasna: How could that be? As far as I know, this isn't the first time he's slept with the boss's wife.]

[Afif: Are you sure? He doesn't even know what Emma Show is! He's as innocent as a little white rabbit.]

Hasna: ...Is it possible that he's not as promiscuous as you?

[Afif: I'm your brother!]

Hasna: That's why I understand you!

[Afif: Then don't blame me, the big bad wolf, for corrupting him!]

Hasna: Weren't you going to give him to me?

[Afif: You're so stupid, you still haven't won him over. So I'm going to take matters into my own hands and show him the world, and make him understand that a little childhood sweetheart can't stop a man's advances!]

Hasna: ...

……

Soon, the gossip that Ye Xian was a novice spread throughout Qiuye Yanxuan.

There are no secrets in this world.

When Qiu Qing found out about this, she completely lost her temper: "Just how idle are you guys?"

When Qiu Qing found out, Ye Xian found out too, so before the welcome banquet that evening, Afif was severely reprimanded by him.

The cultural exchange between Tang and Ying was attended by industry elites from both countries. The team leaders exchanged pleasantries with each other, while Ye Xian and Afif ate in silence, not listening to what the other was saying at all.

Ugh, the food in the UK is really awful.

First day of missing Tang Dynasty cuisine!

Ye Xian was eating in silence when he suddenly felt everyone's eyes on him. He raised his head slightly and immediately realized that they seemed to be talking about him.

He calmly wiped his mouth and sat up straight.

The leader of the Tang Dynasty team introduced Ye Xian, a white-haired old man from the opposing team, to a rising star in the Tang Dynasty music scene.

The white-haired old man looked at Ye Xian with a gloomy gaze: "I have heard of Ye Xian for a long time, but I have not listened to his songs much. I hope to hear Mr. Ye Xian sing a song for everyone today."

Hearing the other party's broken Tang language, Ye Xian frowned slightly. He looked at the team leader, who was also surprised that the other party would make such a request.

The other party's tone was unfriendly, and they immediately asked Ye Xian to sing a song for everyone. What did they mean by that? Did they think they could use Ye Xian as a courtesan?

This item is not on the itinerary.

Isn't this blatantly belittling the status and position of the exchange group?

He subtly declined, saying, "Mr. Ye Xian didn't make many preparations for tonight's banquet. He will showcase his works at the Green Vine Alliance University graduation ceremony tomorrow morning, after he has adjusted his mindset."

The white-haired old man chuckled and said, "Good singers don't need to prepare; those who need to prepare probably don't have much talent."

Upon hearing this, the lively atmosphere at the scene immediately quieted down.

Is this old man crazy? Has he lost his mind? He's being too reckless!

Afif looked at the other person and felt that coming to the dinner party tonight was worthwhile. He thought it would be boring, but it turned out to be so much fun.

Ye Xian also realized that the old man was not asking him to perform for no reason, but was really targeting him. He thought to himself, he didn't have any enemies in the United States.

Unable to understand, Ye Xian stopped thinking about it and stood up, coldly sneering, "My appearance fee in the Tang Dynasty is fifty million yuan per song. Are you going to pay that, or is it someone from your country? If they can afford it, I have no problem. As long as you can afford the price, I can sing all night!"

Pretty!

The members of the Tang Dynasty exchange group all gave Ye Xian a thumbs up. Damn, when dealing with these shameless people from the UK, you can't be sentimental; money is the only way.

The white-haired old man was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated, "Aren't we having a cultural exchange? Do we have to pay to sing a song?"

"The cultural exchange is tomorrow morning; today's performance is extra. My manager won't allow me to sing for free just anywhere! I suppose singers in your country feel the same way?"

Ye Xian calmly sat back down and continued to savor the unpalatable "delicacies" from the United Kingdom in front of him.

He didn't even glance at the other person.

The members of the Tang Dynasty exchange group once again secretly praised them.

Afif looked at Ye Xian with a hint of admiration. "You're something else, kid. You got up without any hesitation."

However, no one felt that Ye Xian's words were too excessive. After all, the overall economic strength of the Tang Dynasty was superior to that of the United Kingdom. In this kind of cultural exchange, the Tang Dynasty had enough confidence to stand up to the other party. The fact that the Tang Dynasty did not directly bomb people or lodge a protest was a testament to its great power demeanor.

……

The white-haired old man froze on the spot. He wanted to say that 50 million yuan a song was a bit of an exorbitant price, but he also knew that if he continued to argue, it would seem a bit excessive.

Ye Xian's net worth may not be that high, but it is definitely not low either. Otherwise, why would the Tang Dynasty only send him as a singer for this cultural exchange?

If they didn't have absolute confidence in Ye Xian, given the way the Tang Dynasty does things, they would definitely have sent an old singer to oversee things.

There aren't even any veteran singers now, which means that the Tang Dynasty completely trusts Ye Xian to handle everything related to songs.

Moreover, this isn't about money; it's about kicking a hornet's nest!
