Chapter 268: No More Pretending! (Part 1)

None of the students in the class wanted to volunteer to perform because they lacked confidence.

Zhao Qingfeng had no choice but to take the initiative and brought a few classmates who had learned to play instruments during junior and senior middle school to the school’s music club.

Playing an instrument is a deep subject.

Like learning any knowledge, it requires not only proficiency in music theory but also a lot of practice to control the instrument in hand.

It was evident.

The classmates he brought were all amateurs, not very skilled.

And the music club at Ji Province University had already gained a small reputation.

So, when Zhao Qingfeng entered the club with his classmates and proposed the idea of asking the club president to help train for a week, it immediately drew ridicule from the club members.

“Isn’t this a waste of our time?”

“What can you learn in a week? Are you also thinking of creating an original song?”

“Class President Zhao, we also have to organize performances, representing our class. We don’t have time to train you.”

“What’s this? Wang Yuan, is the 2000 yuan in your hand meant to bribe us?”

“We’ll tell you, we’re not short of money, what we lack is your attitude!”

“Seeing how sincere you are, we’ll take the money first, and you can leave the people here. It’s not about the money, meow!”

Money makes the world go round.

Wang Yuan, as the life committee member, felt it was essential to contribute to the class.

A few students with a foundation in music stayed behind.

Upon leaving, Wang Yuan said boldly, “Class president, even if we don’t stand a chance of competing for first place, when it comes to spending money, no one can beat us! Just remember, if it’s about spending money, you just have to tell me! I’m willing to spend money to get you into the student council.”

His idea was very pure.

Since his chances of getting into the student council were slim, he might as well support Zhao Qingfeng.

Zhao Qingfeng was a bit annoyed.

He intended to keep a low profile, but Wang Yuan kept showing off his wealth, intentionally or not.

“Wang Yuan, you’re free this afternoon, right? Come with me.”

“Where to?”

“It’s almost a month since I’ve checked on my middle school buddy who hasn’t decided whether to return to school. You haven’t met him yet, I plan to take you to see him.”

Every time he mentioned Zhang Yang.

Zhao Qingfeng always said he was working outside.

Wang Yuan scoffed at this, “Alright, let’s go see him. If he’s having any difficulties in life, I’ll definitely help. If he’s your buddy, I don’t mind spending money to send him to university!”

Wang Yuan was very principled.

Zhao Qingfeng no longer intended to keep it a secret.

He first contacted Shen Lingyao, informing her that he had a big surprise for her in the evening.

Then he took Wang Yuan to the electronics market. At the most conspicuous shop at the staircase on the second floor, they met Zhang Yang, who was busy.

Long time no see.

Zhang Yang had changed a lot.

Dressed in a suit, sporting a beard, deliberately trying to look like an adult.

But that donkey face was still the same.

Upon seeing Zhao Qingfeng, he immediately reported on the recent business situation, then called Sister Lan back, insisting on arranging a meal at Shangri-La.

Wang Yuan was shocked.

Wasn’t he just a young man working in a computer city?

This was different from what Zhao Qingfeng had said before!

Zhao Qingfeng didn’t explain much, declined the invitation to eat, and inquired about Cheng Ming’s recent business situation.

After learning that Cheng Ming’s business was also doing well, he then said, “Let’s wait a bit longer. I’ve communicated with Zhao Guangsheng a few times recently. Once the social media platform goes online, it will be the day of destruction for Cheng Ming and Old Huang.”
