You're already divorced, why are you so anxious about him becoming a succubus?

The moment their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze for a second.

Shen Man looked at the dazzling man on the stage, and the gaze that usually held the scrutiny of someone in a high position instantly faltered.

Her expression was awkward and reserved, and she didn't dare to make eye contact with Lu Ci for long.

She hurriedly lowered her eyes, looked away, and her ten fingers clasped together tightly.

After leaving Shen Nian's rented apartment in the morning, she forced herself to go to the company to deal with the backlog of work.

She went back to her empty house in the afternoon and took a nap, but when night fell, she tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep.

Out of sheer boredom, I opened my phone and happened to come across the official account of Chen Feng's "Twilight Drunk" bar in the local recommendations.

The latest short video teaser reads: "The amazing voice everyone's been waiting for will be there tonight!"

Shen Man realized that the person must be Lu Ci.

Thinking back to what Lu Ci said this morning.

Shen Man was genuinely afraid that if she rushed over rashly, she would upset the other person and make them dislike her even more.

Reason told her that the best thing to do now was not to disturb his new life anymore.

But... she really wanted to see him.

In the end, emotion irrationally triumphed over reason, and she went to the bar alone.

On stage, Qin Meng followed everyone's gaze and saw the woman in booth number 5.

She recognized her as the woman who had arrogantly brought a third party and argued with Lu Ci on the night of the opening.

Qin Meng turned her head and glanced at Lu Ci, who stood beside her with a calm expression, and inwardly snorted coldly:

"You've already found someone new, why are you still bothering other people's lives?"

Women always understand women best.

Qin Meng glanced at Shen Man's restrained, even somewhat humble and cautious expression, and instantly understood what the other woman was thinking.

This is definitely because they regret it and want to come back to make amends!

For some reason, Qin Meng felt a strange sense of irritation.

She didn't even want to play the guitar in her arms anymore. Instead, she stretched out her finger and clicked the play button for the original accompaniment of "Suddenly Missing You" on the tablet in front of her.

As she pressed play, Qin Meng glanced at the lyrics of the song and silently grumbled to herself:

"Look at this song selection, it suddenly makes me miss you?"

"Oh……"

Music suddenly started playing.

Lu Ci was waiting for Qin Meng's guitar intro, but the sudden sound of the original accompaniment made him pause for a moment.

Without thinking too much about it, I picked up the microphone and began to sing slowly:

"I suddenly miss you so much..."

"Where will you be...?"

"Whether you are happy or upset."

……

Shen Man stared blankly at Lu Ci on the stage, unaware that tears were sliding down her cheeks.

Time flies, and it's already one in the morning.

Generally speaking, the peak hours for quiet bars gradually decrease around 11 p.m., while thrill-seeking young people often spend the first half of the night in a quiet bar and then move on to the noisy dance floor of a nightclub late at night.

But today, this illogical scene unfolded at "Twilight's Whisper".

At 1 a.m., the bar lobby was still ridiculously crowded!

Chen Feng turned off the song selection system just one hour after the show started.

Judging from the way things were going, if they kept going like that, Lu Ci and Qin Meng would be exhausted to death on stage, let alone get off work.

Lu Ci wearily put down the microphone and waved goodbye to the reluctant guests in the audience.

Soothing music started playing from the lobby's speakers, allowing guests who wanted to continue drinking and chatting to stay, but the two resident singers were too tired and had to go home.

Throughout the second half of the show, Qin Meng sang one song and Lu Ci sang another, taking turns in tacit understanding, which was how they managed to get through it.

Lu Ci stood up, his gaze inadvertently sweeping across the audience, only to realize that Shen Man had left sometime earlier.

He didn't pay any attention and turned to follow Qin Meng into the backstage dressing room.

As soon as I entered, Xiao Wei excitedly greeted me.

This young girl looks to be in her early twenties, youthful and beautiful.

She wore a fitted white knit off-shoulder long-sleeved top and a high-waisted pleated mini skirt, with her long legs delicately covered by sheer black stockings.

The girl has a great figure; she's the perfect kind of "slightly chubby."

They look plump, but they've all grown in the right places.

"Boss Lu! You've worked hard!"

Xiao Wei came over playfully, her big eyes sparkling: "Quickly guess how many followers your new personal account gained tonight?"

Seeing the little girl's eager expression, Lu Ci smiled in agreement and tentatively gave a number: "Five thousand?"

"wrong!"

"four thousand?"

"No, no, Boss Lu, you've guessed the wrong direction!"

Lu Ci thought about it carefully.

The current short video platforms are highly competitive, making it extremely difficult for newcomers to stand out.

Without strong capital support, most ordinary people would struggle to even earn enough for a takeout meal by posting a video.

He took a deep breath, boldly called out a number, and his eyes lit up slightly: "It can't be... ten thousand, can it?!"

"hey-hey……"

Xiao Wei smiled smugly, held up three slender white fingers, and waved them vigorously in front of Lu Ci:

"It's thirty thousand!"

"A full 30,000 real followers! And this is a brand new account; we haven't done any advertising, not even bought a single penny of traffic!"

Hearing this outrageous number, Lu Ci was genuinely surprised this time.

In one night, with zero cost, I gained 30,000 active followers!

In the fiercely competitive world of the internet, this is absolutely an explosive start!

It seems that the system's side quest to reach 500,000 followers isn't so far-fetched after all.

"That's amazing, thank you for your hard work." Lu Ci sincerely thanked them.

Xiao Wei turned around happily and said to Qin Meng, who was quietly tidying up her guitar, "Sister Meng was amazing today too! She gained a whole five thousand followers in one night!"

Qin Meng put the guitar back into its case, a rare gentle smile appearing on her face: "Thank you, Xiao Wei. I appreciate your help tonight. I'll treat you to dinner sometime when I have time."

Looking at the two attractive people, Xiao Wei blinked gossipy and couldn't help but say, "You guys have no idea how crazy the comments were during the live stream tonight!"

Netizens are all shipping you two as a couple!

Upon hearing this, Qin Meng paused almost imperceptibly as she packed her instrument case, and then a faint blush quickly crept onto her cheeks.

Lu Ci, standing to the side, was somewhat puzzled.

"Wait a minute..." Lu Ci asked humbly, "What's PC? Prostitution...?"

"oops!"

Xiao Wei's fair face instantly flushed red, and she interrupted Lu Ci's dangerous statement with embarrassment and annoyance: "What are you talking about, Boss Lu? What nonsense are you thinking!"

"It's CP! Not PC! CP means couple!"

"what?"

Lu Ci awkwardly touched his nose, feeling that he seemed seriously out of touch with the internet age.

He subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Qin Meng.

At this moment, Qin Meng's usually cool and beautiful face was covered with a rare, delicate blush.

Against that backdrop of cold demeanor, this blush of shyness stood out starkly.

Qin Meng keenly noticed Lu Ci's gaze.

She turned her head, embarrassed and annoyed, and glared at Lu Ci fiercely: "What are you looking at! Who wants to be paired with you as a couple?!"

After saying that, Qin Meng slung her violin case over her shoulder, quickly pushed open the door to the lounge, and strode out.

"For bipolar disorder, it is recommended to see a doctor."

After muttering a curse to himself, Lu Ci waved goodbye to Xiao Wei and turned to leave the backstage area.

Only Xiao Wei remained in the lounge.

Her bright eyes shone with a fervent light.

"Wow! Isn't this just typical flirting between lovers? I'm totally shipping this couple!"
