Chapter 551 Beware of Orthopedics

Ye Xian attended the farewell dinner on time, and he also met his little fan.

"This is the little fan you were talking about? The executive's child?"

Ye Xian looked at the blonde, blue-eyed, youthful, and energetic girl in front of him, and then looked at Team Leader Wang in surprise.

Team leader Wang was also stunned: "They told me it was a child. Are children in the UK more precocious? This one looks, um, about 18 years old, right?"

Team leader Wang tried to sound older, but Ye Xian expressed doubt.

She must be 1.7 meters tall, right? But her face doesn't look like she's 18!

Afif stroked his chin, a hint of malice in his handsome face: "Be careful of orthopedics."

Ye Xian glared at him, then stepped forward and said, "Hello, I'm Ye Xian."

The little girl walked excitedly to Ye Xian and curtsied: "Hello, I am Meimei, a member of the Midnight Snack Group's UK branch."

"I'm so honored to have fans in the UK! Which song would you like to play tonight?"

Ye Xian wasn't sure about the other person's age, so he didn't dare to say much and could only get straight to the point.

"I have practiced your three piano pieces hundreds of times, but I prefer 'Dark Night'."

Meimei speaks Tang language very well, which makes Ye Xian feel very comfortable. If it weren't for her appearance, he would have thought he was facing a true Tang Dynasty fan.

"Then let's play 'Phantom Day'. You can play it with four hands, right?" Ye Xian wasn't sure about the other person's skill level, but since the other person said that they had practiced their three piano pieces hundreds of times, it should be pretty good.

"Absolutely no problem."

The little girl, brimming with confidence, then put her hands behind her back and fidgeted, asking, "Could you sign my autograph later?"

"Sure!"

Ye Xian would naturally not treat his little fans with the same indifference he showed to Cooper.

Seeing that Ye Xian was easy to talk to, the young girl was no longer reserved and began to ask about Ye Xian's various hobbies, and even started to inquire about his private life: "Is the boss lady sure she's your girlfriend? After you made it official, many people from the UK cried for a long time."

"It can't be that exaggerated, right?"

Ye Xian was stunned. This news had even reached the United States? And aren't all the girls in the United States very open-minded? Why would she cry for so long because of my official announcement?

"Of course! We have tons of female fans at our school!"

When it came to fandom, Meimei talked non-stop, telling Ye Xian how many people in their school were his girlfriend fans and how many were his career fans.

"Did you know? Many girls in the UK are very interested in your story of starting from scratch in just one year. They all admire you!"

"Are you sure it's not just money from people who idolize me?" Ye Xian couldn't help but think to himself, but he still politely replied, "My experiences are nothing to brag about. Do you really have a lot of fans at your school?"

As for business development in the UK, Qiuye Yanxuan is just starting out, only involving copyright and brand cooperation, and has not yet formally expanded its artist business. The global tour concert of Yinwu Girls is also a cooperation with its counterparts in the UK. Therefore, Ye Xian is not very clear about his influence in the UK.

"It's not just in our school; your fans on the international version of Kuaishou are all young people from our country. Many of them love your songs like 'No Place to Hide,' 'Gangnam Style,' 'Let's Rock,' and 'Sunny Day.'"

The young girl knew Ye Xian's works like the back of her hand, and she was also very familiar with the situation of the Eagle Country Night Snack Group, which made Ye Xian even more certain that she was a true fan.

Although it was presumptuous, Ye Xian still asked after the two had chatted about music for a while, "Meimei, how old are you this year?"

"I am 17 years old this year."

Meimei looked at Ye Xian with her big, bright eyes.

"Sure?"

Ye Xian expressed his doubts.

British girls like to exaggerate their age; even if they are very mature, they may not be adults.

Meimei felt a little embarrassed under Ye Xian's gaze: "16 years old."

"Sure?"

Ye Xian looked at her suspiciously again.

"15 years old! I'm only 15!"

The young girl was somewhat embarrassed and angry, while Ye Xian was stunned.

As expected, the age of the people of the United Kingdom is always a mystery. Looking at the other person's imposing figure, Ye Xian couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "How did he grow up like that?"

Once their ages were out in the open, the young girl stopped pretending to be mature and started circling around Ye Xian. This made Afif quite envious, and during the meal, he couldn't help but whisper to Ye Xian how old she was.

"15 years old".

While eating the unpalatable British specialty food, Ye Xian shook his head and said, "I didn't expect it to be even smaller than I imagined."

Afif's jaw dropped so high it could have fit an egg: "Orthopedics! Watch out for orthopedics!"

Ye Xian glared at him: "What are you thinking? I have a girlfriend!"

"Then give it to me!" Afif chuckled.

"Aren't you afraid of orthopedics now?" Ye Xian teased.

"What's there to be afraid of? I've been a professional bone setter for thirty years. There's no little girl I can't bring myself to hurt."

Afif winked at Ye Xian: "Give me your contact information."

Ye Xian shrugged: "I didn't get it."

"Didn't get it?"

Afif was stunned: "Are you even a man?"

"I'm a normal man."

Ye Xian leisurely took a sip of juice.

Damn, after being here for so long, the only decent thing is the juice. Oh well, at least their juice is the real deal. No technology or hard work involved.

Afif was speechless after Ye Xian's retort, so he could only secretly remind him to get Ye Xian's contact information after the performance.

As the banquet drew to a close, the lively farewell dinner came to an end. The leader of the Eagle Kingdom took the stage and cleared his throat: "Ladies and gentlemen, today we are honored to have with us Mr. Ye Xian, a famous musician and pop singer from the Tang Dynasty, and Ms. Mei Mei from our Eagle Kingdom, to play a piece called 'Illusory Day' for us. Let's welcome them with applause."

This was a very formal introduction, and the guests present all gave it the warmest applause. Cooper sat in the corner, staring at Ye Xian with a vicious look, but dared not make any more moves.

His previous two underhanded actions resulted in stern warnings from the leader of the British delegation. This time, the investment projects of the Tang Dynasty delegation also reflected their attitude. Not only were no companies willing to cooperate with him, but not a single entrepreneur was willing to invest in his hometown.

To paraphrase a powerful figure from the Tang Dynasty in private: "We're here to invest, not to be humiliated. If you treat Ye Xian like this today, you might treat us the same way tomorrow. So, what difference does it make where we invest?"

As a result, Cooper became the only member who did not gain anything in this cultural exchange activity.

This infuriated him, but he was powerless to do anything about it, because he was powerless against the odds.

He thought the other party was just an ordinary singer, and even if they had some connections, they wouldn't be that great. But he never expected that the other party would not only humiliate him but also leave him with nothing.

Thinking about his son still in the Tang Dynasty prison, Cooper grew increasingly resentful and unconsciously reached into his robes.
