We agreed it was just a hug, why did you actually do it?

On stage, the two whispered to each other. Amid cheers from the crowd, the lead singer stepped back and told the band the song title, then focused on playing the accompaniment.

Su Weile's hair was a little damp with sweat.

He sat on a high stool slightly to the left of the center of the stage, with one foot resting on the crossbeam beneath the stool and the other casually placed on the ground, his long legs easily attracting everyone's attention.

Su Weile's face was glistening with sweat from his earlier dance, making him look radiant.

To everyone's surprise, the boy who had been so carefree and unrestrained on stage just moments before seemed to be a little nervous.

Su Weile gently covered the microphone with her hand and turned her head to one side. She coughed lightly, and then her cute ears turned red.

He turned and smiled at everyone. A pleasant voice then emanated from the Melophone.

I've recently fallen in love with someone.

As soon as the first sentence was uttered, a chorus of screams erupted from below.

Su Weile smiled and continued...

"I promised him I'd confess my feelings to him in public today. Actually, I'm not very good at it, since I don't have much experience."

The laughter below was full of goodwill.

Su Weile suddenly became serious, and her voice was more affectionate than ever before.

"I don't know if it's because I'm too handsome that you always feel insecure, but what I want to say is:"

Love that sprouts in you will blossom and bear fruit there, until we die. Our love will transform into soil, buried with us, waiting for us to be reborn together in the next life, to awaken it once more.

The scene was silent. Yet, everyone's eyes were filled with emotion.

"I also want to say, don't always be unhappy. Forget the terrible past. From now on, I will always be with you and let you know what true happiness is."

Heaven has been kind to you, allowing me, a handsome young man as beautiful as a flower, to fall in love with you.

After a joke-like ending.

Su Weile nodded to the band behind her, and the music began to play softly.

Su Weile sang a song that, without a single word of the word "love," perfectly expressed the feeling of love.

With the most beautiful voice and the most sincere emotions, she expressed a lifelong promise through song, from holding hands until old age.

The atmosphere at the scene was brought to its peak, and many girls had tears in their eyes.

The boys and men were either completely absorbed in the singing or quietly listening while drinking, but everyone's eyes were filled with tenderness.

Inside the VIP room on the second floor of the bar, Huo Yuting quietly watched the people downstairs.

In the very center of the stage, the boy who seemed to represent goodness slowly spoke his promise to another person in front of so many people.

Huo Yuting's expression was inscrutable.

At first, he just sneered. "Love, huh? Love? It's ridiculous. Who still believes in or cares about love these days?"

But as I watched, his smile faded. Perhaps the most contagious and enviable thing in this world is love.

Countless young men have come and gone around Huo Yuting; after all, given his status, he naturally seeks out younger men.

But even the youngest boys, he had never seen such a clean and pure feeling in them.

He'd laugh his head off if those people talked about love. Love what? Their money!

He listened to all sorts of flattery every day, and he himself kept telling lies. But when he occasionally wanted to say something from the heart, he sadly discovered that in this big world, there wasn't a single person he could confide in.

Huo Yuting couldn't help but wonder if Tang Shaowu talked to this boy a lot every night. And if the boy would get angry again, like last time, saying in a self-righteously fierce tone, "If you keep doing that, I'll really beat you up!"

Tang Yi noticed that Huo Dashao beside him was staring blankly at the people downstairs, completely ignoring what he was saying.

Tang Yi had also witnessed the boy's amazing performance. He knew Huo Yuting's hobbies, and they usually played quite fiercely together.

Tang Yi said somewhat obsequiously, "Young Master Huo, do you like this boy? I can try to see if I can get him to stay with you for a few days."

Huo Yuting looked at Tang Yi, his smile not reaching his eyes, "Second Young Master Tang, you should take a closer look at who that boy is. If you don't even have this much insight, I think your family is in trouble!"

Tang Yi blushed with embarrassment, but Huo Yuting acted as if he had only been joking, patting Tang Yi on the shoulder and saying...

"I know you've been looking for me lately. Today I invited you to Tang Shaowu's place. I believe you understand what I mean."

Tang Yi's expression darkened further. "Brother Huo, we've had a great working relationship all these years. Besides, our Tang family's businesses are just a drop in the ocean compared to your Huo family's. You don't need to deliberately separate your Tang family from us."

Huo Yuting smiled and took a sip of wine. "Second Young Master Tang, although Tang Shaowu didn't investigate the Zhao family matter thoroughly last time, everyone could see that he had completely given up on the Tang Group."

He used to occasionally put on a show and lead a few projects. I heard that now he doesn't even go to the board meetings anymore.

Young Master Tang, let's talk business. I'm not afraid to tell you, Tang Shaowu has a big project in hand right now. I'm interested in getting on his side.

But I still haven't received the ship ticket. I'm wondering if there's something about me that Tang Shaowu isn't quite satisfied with?

Tang Yi's face turned pale as he understood Huo Yuting's words. In other words, in order to please Tang Shaowu, he had to abandon the cooperation between the older generation and the Tang family.

Tang Yi clenched his fists tightly. He could imagine that if Huo Yuting did that, the Tang family would be completely removed from the list of the six great families.

Huo Yuting ignored Tang Yi and focused on listening to the boy singing downstairs. The song was nearing its end, yet it spoke of their eternal love.

Huo Yuting seemed unintentional, yet also intentional, as he softly said, "This person, no matter how much I want him, is beyond my control, because he belongs to Tang-Shao-Wu!"

Then he got up and left.

Tang Yi was left alone, staring blankly into space.

Su Weile stepped down from the bar at the height of the night and returned to her seat.

The band's lead singer walked to the center of the stage with a smile and said, "Today's show is the most difficult one I've ever hosted."

Ignoring everyone's eager gazes, Su Weile returned to her seat.

The photographer said, "Young man, you're a little too handsome!"

Ding Yi swallowed hard and said, "You're making too much of a target of hatred. I'm afraid you'll be dragged away in a minute."

Su Weile smiled, took a sip of her drink, and said, "How about it? I'm super handsome, right?"

Zhou Xiaoman put down her phone. "I've already sent the recorded video. Show it to Tang Shaowu when you get back. How can he miss such a happy moment?"

Su Weile smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Xiaoman, you're so thoughtful."

Feng Kai said, "My God, this is the first time I've become the focus of the whole event. Su Weile, I feel like everyone is itching to make a move. I think we should change venues, otherwise we might not have any peace and quiet for a while."

Su Weile also saw the tray piled high with business cards that the waiter was carrying, as well as some people who wanted to come over and strike up a conversation.

"Let's go, let's change venues," Su Weile said decisively.

Shortly after Su Weile and the others left, in a private room that was never open to the public, Tang Shaowu stood up in the darkness, stood up without saying a word, and left with his bodyguards.
