Chapter 51



In a blink of an eye, Chu Meibo has been studying for a month, and campus life is more enjoyable than she imagined.

Considering Chu Meibo's situation, Shen Huai chose an art high school for her. The students there all have to take art exams, and the learning atmosphere is more relaxed than that of ordinary high schools. It is also easier for her to take leave when she goes out to film.

Of course, Chu Meibo encountered some minor troubles after entering the school.

For example, she was blocked by a group of little gangsters as soon as she entered the school. Chu Meibo followed them to a small corner with an innocent look on her face, and then beat them up with a smile.

From then on, the little gangsters came to school honestly every day, and no one dared to mess with her anymore.

Later, after Kui Ji's acting clips became a hot search, she became famous in the school.

Students are the most innocent group. When they realized that this new classmate was gentle, loyal, and not a gangster, they immediately became enthusiastic about her.

However, students in art schools are relatively calm about these things, and there are also students who go out to act in high school, so after a few days of excitement, it slowly died down.

Chu Meibo took this opportunity to build relationships with classmates.

It happened that Ye Cang's new album was released, and it became popular. Many of Chu Meibo's classmates were fans of Ye Cang, and some who were not fans also wanted to follow the trend and buy an album.

I don't know who spread the word that Chu Meibo and Ye Cang had the same agent, so many people approached Chu Meibo, hoping that she could help bring a few albums signed by Ye Cang.

Chu Meibo would not refuse such a small matter.

When she returned home on the weekend, she was about to talk to Shen Huai about this matter, but Shen Huai talked about another matter.

"I have almost finished investigating the matter of Changfeng Company."

Chu Meibo was stunned, and then she remembered that Changfeng Company was the company of her father.

Shen Huai said: "Although Mr. Chu has been in charge of Changfeng Company over the years, he has mostly been living off his past profits. He does not have a keen sense of business and has been cheated several times. In addition, his shares have been diluted. Not only has the assets in his hands not increased, but they have been decreasing."

"There are also complaints about him within the company. If it were not for his status as a major shareholder, he would have been squeezed out long ago. That's why he cares so much about that 50% stake and even wants to marry his daughter off in exchange for financial support."

Shen Huai not only sent people to investigate these matters, but also created some chaos for Mr. Chu to slow him down and prevent him from looking for trouble with Chu Meibo. However, he was overthinking it. Mr. Chu did not care about his daughter at all and had no intention of looking for her. He was terribly cold.

Chu Meibo listened quietly, and then asked, "When can I get this company back?"

Shen Huai said, "If everything goes well, it will be by the end of the year." He thought for a moment and added, "The couple also knew that the company might not work, so they are busy withdrawing cash and preparing to flee abroad."

Shen Huai said, and directly took out the information of Changfeng Company for Chu Meibo to see.

Chu Meibo frowned slightly, she could feel an uncontrollable resentment deep in her body, and a short memory passed through her mind.

The gentle woman hugged her obedient daughter, pointed at the company logo and said, "Nannan, this is the company built by grandpa. Changfeng is grandpa's name. This company is like mom, just like your grandpa's child. When you grow up, this company will be passed to you. You must also take good care of it like mom did..."

Chu Meibo could almost see the grown-up Chu Chu crying with despair on her face, and a feeling of bitterness directly hit her heart.

Shen Huai noticed that her face looked a little strange, and asked quickly: "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

Chu Meibo shook her head, suppressed the emotion, and said slowly: "Can you speed it up and get it to the company earlier?"

"It's not impossible." Shen Huai calculated in his mind, "But if so, I'm afraid it will cost a lot more money."

Chu Meibo pursed her lips: "Sorry, I'm willful. - Consider this money as a loan from you, you can calculate it according to the bank's interest."

Shen Huai knew that Chu Meibo was not such a willful person, she must have her reasons for doing this.

He nodded: "Okay. But you don't have to calculate the interest, just consider it an extra service."

Shen Huai made a small joke, which made Chu Meibo's heavy mood much better.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." Shen Huai put away the information and said, "Don't worry too much. This company is just not doing well at the moment. If a professional manager is replaced in the future, it may have a chance to rise again."

Even though Chu Meibo knew that he was just comforting himself, he still felt much better. Although he didn't take it seriously, he still thanked him solemnly.

Shen Huai sighed and decided to wait until later to let the facts speak for themselves.

Seeing that Shen Huai was about to leave, Chu Meibo suddenly remembered the entrustment of his classmates and hurriedly called him.

"Where's Xiaoye? Why didn't I see him today?"

Shen Huai didn't expect her to suddenly ask about Ye Cang. He felt a little uncomfortable for a moment and pushed his glasses: "He has an announcement today, so he should be busy now."

Chu Meibo touched his chin: "I heard that his album sold well. Many people in our school bought it."

That's right. Although Shen Huai thought the album sales would not be bad at first, he didn't expect it to be so good.

Including pre-sales, the sales on the first day exceeded 20,000 copies, and this is only the sales of the physical album.

Unlike other singers who release digital albums first and then physical albums, Ye Cang comes from that era and always has a sentiment for physical CDs, so he insisted on releasing the physical album first and then the digital album a week later.

Many audiences were amazed by Ye Cang's performance at the press conference. Some of them couldn't wait for the digital album to be sold, so they simply bought the physical copy.

When the sales figures were just released, Xue Chengge was shocked. He held his phone and giggled. He even ran outside and yelled excitedly.

In the next few days, the album's sales not only did not drop, but got better and better.

So Xue Chengge gradually calmed down.

But he didn't expect that this album would be a big hit. In just one week, the sales had reached nearly 60,000. Not only that, the popularity was rising. Many people had already begged him on Weibo to release a digital album as soon as possible.

Chu Meibo didn't quite understand what this meant, so she naturally asked Shen Huai to help her get a dozen signed albums, and then she went back leisurely.

Shen Huai didn't have time to refuse.

He pressed his brows and rubbed them. Ever since the night of the press conference, he has been trying to keep a distance from Ye Cang. Ye Cang probably understood what he meant. Although he felt a little disappointed, he still respected him very much.

Now that Chu Meibo made this request, he could let Xue Chengge do it, but it would be a bit too disrespectful.

Shen Huai hesitated again and again, and finally decided to go to Ye Cang in person.

——After

recording the notice, Ye Cang was exhausted. Almost every program asked the same questions, and he had almost memorized the answers by heart.

Compared with singing and composing, this kind of thing is something he hates. If it were him in his previous life, he would never do these things. After all, in his opinion, fans like his songs, and it is enough for them to communicate through music.

But from life to death, and from death to life again, after experiencing so many things, he figured out a lot of things. In the past, he thought that this was a compromise, which was not rock. However, after living again, he didn't care about these formal things. A small concession would not make him lose his rock spirit, but would make him bend down to look at this world.

Ye Cang sighed in his heart, but suddenly heard Xue Chengge said in surprise: "Brother Shen!"

He immediately raised his head, and there was no thought in his mind, only the person in front of him.

Shen Huai was still wearing the familiar three-piece suit. Seeing Ye Cang's surprised look, he adjusted his glasses: "I just happened to come here for something, and I came to see you."

Xue Chengge was about to speak, but Ye Cang spoke first: "It just so happens that Xiao Xue has to go back to school. I just don't know how to go back. Can you give me a ride later?"

Xue Chengge: "???"

When did he say he was going back to school? But as an excellent assistant, he didn't need to ask the reason at this time, so he nodded immediately: "Yes, my tutor contacted me for something, I'll go back first, Brother Shen, Brother Ye, please take care of me."

Xue Chengge finished speaking, and ran away at Ye Cang's extremely obvious hint.

Shen Huai: "..."

He didn't expose the two of them, and turned around and walked towards the elevator.

Ye Cang hurried to catch up with him. He had a lot to say along the way, but he was afraid that if he said it, Shen Huai would distance himself from him, so his expression was as constipated as if he was constipated.

Shen Huai pretended not to see it the whole time.

After returning home, Shen Huai told him his intention, and Ye Cang's eyes lit up: "No problem!"

Although he had been vomiting blood from signing recently, this was different. While signing, he could take the opportunity to talk to Shen Huai, and if he said something wrong, he could break the awkward situation between the two of them.

Just when Ye Cang was making his plans, he saw the album prepared on the table and blurted out in disappointment: "Is it just a few signatures?"

Shen Huai: "..."

Ye Cang slowly took out one and suggested unwillingly: "Just a signature? Do you need to sign?"

Shen Huai: "..."

He no longer wanted to figure out where Ye Cang learned all this from, and pressed his forehead: "No, just a signature will do."

Ye Cang sighed: "Sister Mei, why don't you be more generous and take a few more?"

Shen Huai: "I will tell you this."

Ye Cang: "..."

He coughed, lowered his head and signed obediently, but still secretly looked at Shen Huai with the rest of his eyes.

These past few days, Shen Huai has been leaving early and returning late. He used the excuse of being busy and handed over all matters related to the announcement to Xue Chengge. Ye Cang came back exhausted every day and wanted to talk to him, but he fell asleep every time while waiting. So he hadn't sat alone with Shen Huai like this for a long time.

Shen Huai's sitting posture was very standard. Even when he was looking at information on the tablet, his back was straight. His well-groomed black hair drooped a little and fell on his smooth forehead.

Ye Cang felt his whole heart calm down just by looking at him. The anxiety and boredom of the past few days seemed to have left him at this moment.

He was even a little afraid to speak, for fear that he would destroy the atmosphere as soon as he spoke.

Shen Huai naturally felt Ye Cang's gaze on him, and he couldn't help but be distracted. When he came to his senses, he found that Ye Cang had stopped writing.

The surroundings were a little too quiet, and even the sound of swallowing saliva would be very obvious.

Ye Cang's gaze seemed to carry warmth, falling on Shen Huai, making him simply unable to ignore it.

Shen Huai's fingers clenched the tablet, and his tone was as calm as possible: "Take your time to sign these albums. Put them here after signing, and I will pick them up tomorrow morning."

After Shen Huai finished speaking, he stood up and walked upstairs in a hurry.

Ye Cang hurriedly called him, and then caught up with him in a few steps.

From Ye Cang's angle, he could just see Shen Huai's tense back and his white knuckles holding the tablet. He suddenly felt a little reluctant.

This was different from the burning feeling that seemed to burn the heart, but it was a bit sour and painful.

Ye Cang suddenly realized that he felt sorry for Shen Huai, and he didn't want to force him.

He swallowed the words he had originally wanted to say, and pretended to be cheerful and said: "Okay, I'll sign slowly, you go to bed early."

Shen Huai was stunned, obviously not expecting Ye Cang to say this.

He turned his head and saw Ye Cang had already stepped back a few steps. He said sincerely, "Ah Huai, although I don't know why you don't want to accept me, it doesn't matter. This is your freedom and you don't have to feel any burden."

"If you want to restore the relationship between agent and artist, I can do the same. I won't say these words that bother you anymore. Let's just get along as before, okay?" "

I..."

Shen Huai looked at Ye Cang's gentle smile, and his heart seemed to be pinched. He knew why Ye Cang said this. He didn't give up, but he just didn't want to burden himself too much.

If Ye Cang had been pursuing him relentlessly, Shen Huai might have been able to stay sober and restrained and not cross the minefield.

But his gentle concession and tolerance made Shen Huai a little overwhelmed. Shen Huai almost used

his utmost willpower to force himself to look away, responded softly, and then fled back to his room in a hurry.
