Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Following Yang Xiaozhi's directions, Ye Chen arrived at a bar.

The lighting here was very dim, and Yang Xiaozhi wearing sunglasses made it hard for people to recognize her.

Yang Xiaozhi smiled, "When I'm in a bad mood, I like to come here to listen to music."

"Listen to music?" Ye Chen was momentarily taken aback.

At this moment, there were several young people playing guitars on the stage.

They were singing a song that is currently very popular.

Actually, this bar is meant to give young people a place to relax.

The songs here in the bar are very mellow, giving people a very relaxed feeling.

Ye Chen and Yang Xiaozhi went to a corner.

It was very quiet here, and it was hard to see inside from the outside.

Yang Xiaozhi proudly said, "The environment here is nice, isn't it?"

Ye Chen nodded, "Yeah, the environment is indeed quite good."

Then Ye Chen ordered some juice and small sweets, and the two of them drank and ate small treats, indeed feeling quite nice.

On stage, a woman in her thirties was playing the guitar.

"My love for you is as gentle as the moonlight."

"My longing for you is as soft as the wind."

...

The woman sang with great affection, clearly having immersed herself in the emotions of the music.

"How can I make up for the missed opportunities?"

"How can I erase the longing you left me with?"

...

Yang Xiaozhi smiled, "The singers here all sing their own songs. How do you feel about it?"

Ye Chen nodded, "Yeah, the atmosphere is really great."

"The singer is called Sister Yuanyuan, she's Old Bai's lady here in the bar. She's a really nice person, and this spot is specially reserved for me by her."

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment after hearing that.

"Oh, so that's how it is."

Ye Chen said, "Sister Yuanyuan's singing is very nice to listen to. I think if she debuted, she would sound better than those popular singers, right?"

Yang Xiaozhi nodded, "Sister Yuanyuan was actually a really popular singer before, but later she chose to retire at her peak."

After Sister Yuanyuan finished singing, she left the stage, and afterwards, it was some guests who sang on stage.

Some of the guests sang beautifully, while others sounded a bit like wailing ghosts.

The audience booed loudly, and that buddy left the stage with a red face.

Yang Xiaozhi laughed, "Ye Chen, why don't you go up and sing a song too?"

Ye Chen said, "You didn't bring me here just to listen to me sing, did you?"

Yang Xiaozhi laughed, "No, I just enjoy being here. Listening to others sing makes me feel so relaxed and less stressed."

As she said this, Yang Xiaozhi looked at the young people singing on stage.

"Actually, sometimes I really envy them, being so carefree. Although many people envy being a star, it's really exhausting. Sometimes, I even feel like I can't breathe." Yang Xiaozhi sighed.

"Every day I have endless announcements, endless films to shoot, and interviews that are continuously scheduled. I'm really exhausted."

"I want to give up, but when I signed my contract, I virtually signed my life away. Now I don't even have freedom."

"That's why I really wanted to relax properly today."

Ye Chen listened to Yang Xiaozhi's words and understood very well.

He had also heard Tong Xiaoya talk about the hardships of being a star.

Ye Chen laughed, "I was just kidding earlier. Have you sung here before?"

"Me? No, I don't want to end up in the news the next day."

Ye Chen smiled gently, "Wait for me for a bit."

Then, Ye Chen went out for a while and returned with something in his hand.

He actually had a mask in his hand.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Wait for me a moment."

He found Sister Yuanyuan and said a few words to her.

Sister Yuanyuan then went on stage, "Everyone, today we're going to play a new game, Masked Singer."

Hearing what Sister Yuanyuan said, everyone was momentarily taken aback.

"Our singers will all be on stage with masks, making it more mysterious for everyone, how about that?"

"Not bad, this idea is great."

"Haha, this way, if I sing badly, I won't be afraid of being booed, since no one will recognize me anyway."

There was immediately a sound of applause from the audience.

Initially, a few boys went on stage.

Sure enough, with masks on, many boys who dared not go on stage earlier were emboldened to perform.

Ye Chen smiled, "Alright, it's your turn to perform."

Yang Xiaozhi nodded, wore a Princess Snow White mask, and went onto the stage.

"I'll bring you a song, 'Encounter', hope everyone likes it."

"Meeting you is the luck of my life."

"Meeting you is my most beautiful memory."

"Every moment, I want to keep in my heart."

"Every bit of tenderness, I want to hold in my hands."

...

Yang Xiaozhi's voice was very beautiful, and this song carried a hint of yearning.

Ye Chen finally understood that Yang Xiaozhi was actually going back the next day.

And then it would be back to that big star lifestyle.

From the music, Ye Chen could hear Yang Xiaozhi's reluctance towards him.

After the song ended, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

"The lady's singing is so beautiful."

"This song is really wonderful."

"Miss, please sing another song."

Yang Xiaozhi glanced at Ye Chen with a mischievous smile, "Now let's invite my friend, guest number 28, to sing a song for everyone."

All eyes turned in the direction of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen helplessly shook his head, knowing this girl wouldn't easily let him off the hook.

He stood up and went to the stage, took the microphone from Yang Xiaozhi's hand, and said, "Thanks to this beautiful lady for the encounter, it makes me very happy to meet you too. Up next, a song called 'The Wind Rises'.

This journey on foot and pause

Following the traces of a wandering youth

At the very moment before stepping out of the station

I hesitated a little

...

When I first got to know this world

Fascinated with everything

Looking at the horizon as if it's right in front of me

I'd willingly brave fire and water to walk it again

Now having traversed this world

Fascinated with everything

Through the years, faces on the opposite sides of time

Unwittingly barged into your smile

...

Ye Chen possessed Divine Level singing skills, and this past song was sung by him in an extremely captivating way.

Yang Xiaozhi was completely stunned listening to Ye Chen's song.

Isn't this precisely the verses engraved on the dining table?

Originally, she thought it was a poem by Ye Chen, but it turned out to be a song written by him.

At this moment, listening to Ye Chen's song, Yang Xiaozhi felt somewhat captivated.

So handsome, so wealthy, and most importantly, so talented.

Does this mean that this man is heaven's pity and is a gift to me?

...

Ye Chen drove Yang Xiaozhi back to the hotel.

Yang Xiaozhi felt a bit reluctant, "I'm going back tomorrow."

"Yeah, but won't I still be able to see you on TV?"

"But I can't see you." Yang Xiaozhi said wistfully.

"If you miss me, you can call me."

Yang Xiaozhi nodded, "Right, you're driving for DiDi, shall I give you a Five-Star Review?"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving a Five-Star Review, activating the 5th star of review, and obtaining the system reward: Emotional Affinity Scoring System."

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned. A scoring system?

As the name suggests, it allows knowing a girl's affinity towards him.

He glanced at Yang Xiaozhi's emotional score towards him.

At this time, Yang Xiaozhi's affinity towards Ye Chen had soared to eighty-five.

Looking at this affinity score, Ye Chen was a bit surprised.

It seemed this girl really had feelings for him, and he understood that if the affinity reached ninety, they would be in a relationship.
