Chapter 267: Hello, I’m Su Yang (2)

Now that her surgery had gone smoothly, Xu Xiyun still felt as if he was dreaming.
“Of course, I’ll watch,” Grandma Xu assured him. “Xiyun, this is Mr. Yu. You must thank him properly.”
Xu Xiyun guessed that Yu Xiheng must be the ‘boss’ Si Fuqing often mentioned.
He bowed deeply. “Thank you, Mr. Yu.”
Yu Xiheng responded indifferently, “No need.”
Si Fuqing stepped forward, guiding Yu Xiheng out of the ward.
Grandma Xu nudged Xu Xiyun. “Go and see him off.”
Xu Xiyun hurried out again.
But he couldn’t get close to Yu Xiheng.
“Te-Teacher Si, your boss, he… his presence is so strong, I-I can’t even stand,” Xu Xiyun stuttered, pointing to his trembling legs.
“Eh?” Si Fuqing glanced at Yu Xiheng, who sat quietly in the wheelchair. “He’s not even talking now. How can he be imposing? Don’t slander my boss!”
“Teacher Si, can’t you feel it?” Xu Xiyun leaned against the wall. “I can’t do this, I need to go back in. It’s not that I don’t want to escort him, my legs just won’t cooperate.”
Si Fuqing nodded. “Okay, remember to return to the camp later. Your grandma is being looked after by the nurse. You just focus on preparing for the performance.”
Xu Xiyun entered the ward again, feeling like he had come back to life. He breathed deeply, relieved.
Feng San looked at Xu Xiyun with pity.
He knew all too well about Yu Xiheng’s imposing aura.
In the year when the Elder of the MO Family was selecting a personal guard for Yu Xiheng among them, he disgracefully knelt down at his first sight of Yu Xiheng.
Afterwards, this incident became a timeless joke, one that Xi Jiang and Chen Ying mocked him for years.
Indeed, one can cultivate an imposing aura, but Yu Xiheng’s was naturally integrated into his being, exerting a subtle yet unmistakable pressure.
Others need to exert effort to show their presence; he had to make an effort to contain his.
Earlier in the ward when he was chatting with Grandma Xu, he had been restraining it.
Now, unrestrained, Xu Xiyun, untrained in martial arts, couldn’t withstand it.
“Miss Si, Grandma Xu scared me to death,” Shang Lu approached Si Fuqing, whispering. “She mistook Mr. Yu as your partner!”
“Ah?” Si Fuqing touched her chin, unfazed. “Grandma Xu does have a sharp eye.”
Shang Lu jumped in shock again, “Miss Si, you and—I‘
“However, Grandma Xu’s vision should not just see what meets the eye, she should have seen through the surface to the essence of things.,” Si Fuqing said with a sly twinkle in her eye. “My true partner is money.” Shang Lu:
Meanwhile, at the “Youth With You” training base.
The director and producer had arranged for Lou Lianhua’s entertainment company to pick him up.
Given the fans’ reaction, his withdrawal from the competition was a foregone
The producer had expected some resistance from Wangchuan Entertainment, but to their surprise, they agreed readily, eager to avoid further issues.
When informed of his withdrawal, Lou Lianhua was in disbelief. He didn’t expect that he was the one that had to withdraw from the competition in the end.
In an emotion state, he blurted out, “That’s impossible, the company won’t do that!”
His ranking was the highest among the trainees from his company, and he had a chance at debuting.
The popularity of “Youth With You” had soared under Si Fuqing and Xie Yu’s leadership.
He had even heard from Lin Qingyan that representatives from Glenn would be attending the final night.
How could he withdraw now?
“It works like this: withdrawal only happens after discussion between both parties,” the producer lit a cigarette. “Your company agreed to your withdrawal; otherwise, the production wouldn’t let you leave.”
Lou Lianhua’s expression changed drastically. “That’s impossible!”
The producer had no fondness for Lou Lianhua’s company and was in no mood for further discussion. “Pack your things.”
Clutching his fists, Lou Lianhua felt cold sweat soak through his clothes.
He regretted his actions deeply.
If only he hadn’t suggested that idea to the company, hadn’t spoken those words to Xu Xiyun in the cafeteria.
He didn’t even know when he had been recorded!
Lou Lianhua’s face turned pale as he listlessly picked up his suitcase and left the training base.
Soon, the program’s official Weibo account posted an update.
[@YouthWithYou: Trainee Lou Lianhua has withdrawn from the competition.]
The announcement was cold and formal.
Very different from the official notice about Xu Xiyun’s withdrawal.
[Good riddance, the show can go on without such malicious contestants.]
[Lou Lianhua, who threatens others with family, doesn’t deserve to stay. Hope we never see him in the entertainment industry again.]
[Looking forward to Xie Yu! Can’t wait for the third performance!]
[Ah, who will be the guest performers this time? Hurry up and release the list, production team!]
With the issue resolved, the trainees returned to preparing for their third performance.
That evening, after his training, Xu Xiyun was called out by Si Fuqing.
He followed her to a private apartment.
The apartment was filled with various musical instruments, all appearing to be of exceptional quality.
“This is a friend’s place, lent it to me for use,” Si Fuqing explained as she poured a glass of water. “It’s quiet here, and the privacy is excellent. Please, have a seat.”
Xu Xiyun finally sat down, taking in his surroundings.
“Now, let’s think about what comes next. Do you want to be an independent trainee, or find a company?” Si Fuqing pondered, resting her chin on one hand. “Both paths are viable. If you choose to join a company, it indeed requires careful consideration. Are there any companies in the entertainment industry that interest you?”
“Interested?” Xu Xiyun scratched his head. “I’m not very familiar with them.”
“Alright, then.” Si Fuqing nodded. “Record a performance video, and I’ll have someone look at it to see where you’d fit best.”
Xu Xiyun chose a bass and proceeded to record a singing video, followed by a dance solo.
Si Fuqing organized the video files neatly.
Xu Xiyun sat opposite her, visibly anxious.
“As for companies, Shengxing Entertainment is actually a good choice,” Si Fuqing mused. “You’re not pursuing acting, so that guy’s studio is definitely not an option.”
She had initially thought of recommending Xu Xiyun to Qu Lingyun.
But for Xu Xiyun, focusing solely on music seemed like the better path. Xu Xiyun grew even more nervous. “Shengxing Entertainment? Can I really get
Shengxing Entertainment was an even bigger agency than Tianle Media, with many famous actors and actresses under its banner.
“Yes,” Si Fuqing’s eyes were firm. “I can get you in.”
“But wouldn’t the pressure be too much?” Xu Xiyun hesitated. “And with so many artists at Shengxing, I fear I might fall short. Plus, I need to take care of my grandmother; I can’t be too busy.”
Si Fuqing hummed in thought. “That’s a valid concern, let me think…”
“Then let him join my studio,” a calm voice interjected. “I’m signing new talent to my studio right now. Anyone you bring is someone I trust.” Both Si Fuqing and Xu Xiyun stopped in their tracks at this remark.
Si Fuqing turned around.
The door opened, and Su Yang entered, wearing a hat and mask, with a guitar in hand.
Si Fuqing was surprised. “I thought you’d be wandering around a bar at this hour.”
“I’ve already found you, no need to wander in bars anymore,” Su Yang said expressionlessly. “If you disappear again, it won’t just be me looking for you. I don’t need to hang out at bars.”
He had indeed thought Si Fuqing was just a bar singer.
Since arriving in Great Xia, he had developed a habit of visiting various bars at night.
Even his fans didn’t know this was the reason.
Si Fuqing:
Perhaps even if she didn’t disappear, those searching for her would only increase, not decrease.
Jiang Changfeng had identified her just from the hand cream she made for Jiang Changning.
She needed to be more careful.
Xu Xiyun was stunned. “Studio? You, you are…”
Su Yang pulled down his mask, smiling faintly. “Hello, I’m Su Yang..”
