Chapter 31



Xie Yang stayed in the car for a long time until the lights in the small building were turned off. He then got out and went with Zhou Miao to the small room where Zhou Miao stayed every time he stayed overnight here, preparing to spend the night with Zhou Miao tonight.

Zhou Miao was so scared that sweat broke out on his back. He tried to persuade Jie Yang to get another room, but Jie Yang refused on the grounds that he didn't want to trouble the nurse so late and was afraid of alarming Qiu Xing. Zhou Miao had no choice but to imagine himself being cut into pieces by Qiu Xing. He held on to his desire to survive and refused to sleep on the bed. Instead, he slept on the floor.

A night passed, and Xie Yang continued to wait for Qiu Xing in the car.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Qiu Xing came out of the small building. He looked a little worse than yesterday, and his expression was not very good. He walked to the car without looking around, waved his hand to tell Zhou Miao not to bother, and opened the back door himself.

"Good morning." Xie Yang waved to Qiu Xing.

“……” Qiu Xing slammed the car door, paused for two seconds, and then opened it again.

Xie Yang rubbed his neck and said, "Get in the car. I have to go to the Yangxing branch for a meeting."

Qiu Xing's expression changed from time to time. He slammed the car door again and looked at Zhou Miao with murderous eyes: "Why is he here!"

Zhou Miao shrank back in fear, and stammered as he explained, "Yes, it was the young boss who insisted on coming, and it was the young boss who insisted on waiting for you, I——"

"Shut up!" Qiu Xing interrupted Zhou Miao, opened the car door again, stared at Jie Yang in the car grimly for a few seconds, leaned down to get in the car, lowered his head to take out his mobile phone to read emails, and ignored Jie Yang.

The car drove out of the nursing home.

Xie Yang felt that the two of them couldn't stay in this stalemate, so he took the initiative to hand over the ladder: "Thank you for lending me Liu Sha."

Qiu Xing ignored him, as if he didn't hear what Jie Yang said.

Xie Yang simply turned sideways and looked straight at Qiu Xing.

Qiu Xing straightened his clothes, turned sideways to the window, and continued to look through the mail.

"I gave Feng Qinglin my business card. If he figures it out, he will contact me."

Qiu Xing paused while scrolling through his phone, still not understanding Yang.

"I'm not trying to completely deny your way of educating your nephew, but I just think you can't be too silent in your devotion. You have to let him know what's good for him. He grew up in the Feng family, and he must have been exposed to bad news about his enemies. You think you're doing good for him, and he may be grateful on the surface, but he may be on guard against you in his heart."

Qiu Xing finally spoke up and said, "It's impossible for my enemy's child to be ungrateful."

"What about the Feng family's children?"

Qiu Xing did not try to hide his disdain, sneering, "A bunch of idiots."

"Feng Qinglin's last name is Feng, and the genes of a fool are mostly in his blood."

Qiu Xing suddenly turned his head to look at Jie Yang.

"This is the truth. If you have the guts, ask Feng Qinglin to change his father."

Qiu Xing's expression twisted, and he became furious. He put down his phone and said, "What on earth do you want to say?"

"I want to say that even if you feel that you won't live long and you are anxious, don't try to force Feng Qinglin to grow." Xie Yang smiled at Qiu Xing and raised an eyebrow. "Besides, don't you still have me? Even if you die young, I will still live long enough to continue teaching Feng Qinglin."

Qiu Xing's anger suddenly disappeared. He frowned and looked at Jie Yang for a long time. Suddenly, he leaned back in his chair and sneered, "You? You are four years younger than Qinglin."

"But I have lived a very sensible life for the past twenty years."

"So your honesty and cowardice when you were in the Xie family were all pretend?"

Xie Yang went with the flow: "It's just a way to survive."

Qiu Xing sneered again, then fell silent and stopped talking.

Xie Yang also calmed down.

When the car arrived at the foot of Rongding Building, Qiu Xing suddenly said, "Drive to Yangxing."

Zhou Miao turned the steering wheel.

Qiu Xing turned his head to look at Xie Yang and said, "Xie Yang, I don't know where you know about the Qiu family and the Feng family, and I don't want to pursue this issue. I just want to ask you, do you understand what you just said?"

Xie Yang looked Qiu Xing in the eye without dodging, and replied: "It means that I will always stand on your side and support you unconditionally. Your enemy is my enemy, and whatever you want to do is what I will do. Qiu Xing, you don't know how hard I will fight to survive."

Qiu Xing laughed, first with a low hum, then he laughed louder and louder until his face turned red. After a while, he stopped laughing and looked at Xie Yang again. After looking at him for a while, he looked away and said, "Xie Yang, remember what you said today."

The car stopped downstairs of Yangxing Building and Jie Yang got out.

"When did you arrive at the sanatorium?"

Xie Yang stopped, looked back at Qiu Xing in the car, and replied, "This morning." He casually lowered the driver's window.

Zhou Miao was so scared that he tightened his grip.

Qiu Xing nodded to show that he understood, rolled up the car window, and signaled Zhou Miao to drive.

Zhou Miao breathed a sigh of relief.

Park the car at Rongding parking lot.

"When did he come?"

Zhou Miao was startled, and carefully glanced through the rearview mirror at Qiu Xing's abnormally calm expression. After hesitating for a while, he replied, "Today, today..."

"Think it over carefully before you speak."

Zhou Miao choked, and after choosing between the big devil and the little devil, he chose the big devil and said, "Yesterday, the little boss waited for you in the car until eleven o'clock, and then followed me to my room to rest--"

Qiu Xing looked over coldly.

Zhou Miao quickly added: "—I slept on the floor! I slept on the floor!! I went to bed early and got up late, I didn't see anything, I swear!"

"Really?" Qiu Xing leaned back in his chair, relaxed his body and closed his eyes. "You are not old, but you have such a big mouth... Humph."

Liu Sha had already arrived at her post and was sitting in the reception hall of Yang Bank flipping through a magazine. The newly hired receptionist looked at her from time to time, and when he saw Jie Yang come in, his eyes lit up and he hurried to Jie Yang to explain the situation.

After listening to her, Xie Yang explained, "She is not a client, but a new vice president. Let's get busy." Then he walked to Liu Sha and said with a smile, "It's time to go to the meeting, President Liu."

"There's no rush for the meeting, let's deal with this first." Liu Sha held up her phone, "Boss Jie, you seem to be in some trouble."

Everyone gathered in the conference room. Xie Yang introduced Liu Sha to Hu Biao and several newly recruited department heads, and then held a brief meeting for everyone.

After the meeting, Liu Sha and Hu Biao went to the chairman's office with Jie Yang alone.

Hu Biao was reading a so-called "objective review" article written by a well-known musician on Weibo, and his face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"It must be someone Huang Tian who sent out the press release. In the press release, this person classified Ji Zehui as a talented singer, and praised Ji Zehui's wide vocal range and high notes to the skies. Then he classified you as a popular singer, saying that you only have a good voice, but your singing skills are totally useless. He also used other people's examples, saying that with a voice like yours, generally only the bass performance is okay, and the high notes are definitely sharp and weak, and the range is also narrow."

Liu Sha was much calmer than Hu Biao and analyzed: "Fans can't help Xie Yang refute this evaluation, because Xie Yang has not sung high notes so far. The only high note he sang was when he sang harmony for Tong Jian."

Hu Biao was furious, so he put down his phone and said to Jie Yang, "This musician has always portrayed a fair and objective image to the outside world. He has a great influence, and the public is easily led by him. He is very cunning. When he praised Ji Zehui, he deliberately categorized Ji Zehui with several veteran singers who are very talented but less popular, using these veteran singers to elevate Ji Zehui's image. When he implied you, he put you together with some traffic stars with bad reputations and low strength, trying to tie you and the image of traffic stars together in the eyes of the public."

Xie Yang didn't understand: "This kind of connotation is easy to break. Huang Tian's move was too stupid."

"It's not that they are stupid." Hu Biao's expression became even uglier. "There is already definite news. Mo Bin still signed with Huangtian."

This is really bad news.

Xie Yang said, "He really doesn't want to take the road to heaven, but he insists on breaking into hell. Let's ignore him for now. What you mean is that the reason why Huangtian issued such a press release was because of Mo Bin?"

Hu Biao nodded: "Have you forgotten? When you first joined the group, I asked you to sing a solo for Mo Bin. You were nervous at the time, your throat was dry, and your high notes were poor. Mo Bin comforted you and told you not to panic, saying that you could get used to it for a few days before singing again. Later, various things got mixed up, and this singing session was delayed."

Xie Yang raised his eyebrows: "So in Mo Bin's impression, my high notes have always been terrible?"

"right."

Xie Yang smiled: "That's a good thing, such a good opportunity to step on someone's face, why are you worried?"

Hu Biao was annoyed: "Didn't you say that Mo Bin would definitely drag you down if he signed with Huangtian? Of course I'm worried about this! Now that he has just joined Huangtian, such a press release has been released. With his understanding of IUD, who knows what he will reveal later!"

"What are you afraid of? He knows IUD, and you know him, too. We are holding each other hostage. The matter is a foregone conclusion. As the saying goes, we will fight back if the enemy comes and we will block the water with earth. Let's speak with strength."

Soon, the opportunity for Xie Yang to speak with his strength came.

On the weekend night, a singer competition variety show "Who is the King of Singers" in which Ji Zehui participated was broadcast. In the interview session after the show, when the reporter asked Ji Zehui who he wanted to invite as the guest singer for the next episode, Ji Zehui smiled very gently like a senior and said, "I recently saw a performance video of a young newcomer on Weibo, and it was amazing. There hasn't been such a dazzling newcomer in the music industry for a long time. If possible, I would like to invite him to be my guest singer."

As soon as the program was broadcast, public opinion was heated and reactions from all parties were mixed.

Some naive fans who had just become fans of Jie Yang were excited and went to Ji Zehui's Weibo to thank Ji Zehui for his appreciation and affirmation, and thank him for giving Jie Yang this opportunity.

Some smart fans remembered that "Breaking the Cocoon" was overshadowed by "IUD" and realized that something was wrong.

Passersby simply hope to see more of Jie Yang's live performances and want to get to know this newcomer more comprehensively.

Ji Zehui's fans were somewhat dissatisfied. They felt that given Ji Zehui's status, inviting a newcomer as a guest singer was simply flattering the newcomer and actively giving blood to the newcomer to suck. They lamented that Ji Zehui was really too much of a good guy.
