Chapter 432: Chapter 432 Biological Father
Sheng Tang drank a cup of coffee, feeling quite energetic in the morning.
At noon, she called Qin Lin.
Qin Lin answered the call with an unwilling expression and immediately asked, "What do you want?"
Sheng Tang was infuriated, that ungrateful little bastard. She had saved him from a dangerous situation, and this was how he treated his savior.
"I need to talk to you!"
Qin Lin agreed to meet her at a small dessert shop next to the school gate where they could have some drinks.
The weather was getting warmer day by day, with early spring in the air. Clusters of forsythia blossoms hung golden and vibrant on the branches, casting an exuberant aura over the campus.
Sheng Tang met Qin Lin, who kindly ordered her a cake and milk tea.
Although Sheng Tang didn’t dare eat these, her heart felt slightly warmed. Qin Lin might not be entirely hopeless after all.
"Are you still in charge of the opening ceremony performance?" Sheng Tang asked him.
Qin Lin nodded and simultaneously narrowed his eyes warily, "What do you want?"
"I want to participate too."
"Oh," Qin Lin sighed in relief, "Participate then. Why did you have to ask me alone? You scared me; I thought you wanted special treatment..."
"I can’t do that; I don’t have that option," Sheng Tang replied coldly.
It took a moment for Qin Lin to realize she had made a dirty joke, making him so angry he wanted to strangle her!
He took several seconds to calm down, inhaling deeply and telling himself, "Qin Lin, you’re a grown man now. You’re an adult. Killing someone is against the law!"
He didn’t storm off, demonstrating his excellent self-restraint.
Sheng Tang continued, "I wanted to ask if anyone has been arranged to do the music arrangement for this event. I want to sing a song myself."
Qin Lin was furious, his temper not yet cooled, and tersely replied, "No!"
Sheng Tang, "Can you help with the arrangement?"
"No!" Qin Lin stood up, unwilling to bother with Sheng Tang any longer, "Court dismissed!"
With that, he walked off.
Sheng Tang, "..."
Screw you!
Sheng Tang packed the milk tea and cake, giving them to Jiang Baocu, who loved sweet things.
Jiang Baocu was indeed delighted.
During the lunch break, Sheng Tang dialed Gu Shiyan’s number. Remembering Gu Shiyan’s horror movie torment last night, Sheng Tang felt justified in asking her for a favor.
"Sister Feifei..."
"Tangtang?" Gu Shiyan was elated, and it sounded bustling on her end, "Missed your sister already?"
"No, Sister Feifei, can I ask you for a favor?" Sheng Tang went straight to the point.
Gu Shiyan, with good humor, laughed, "Go ahead."
Sheng Tang wanted her company’s people to do the music arrangement.
This small matter was agreed to immediately by Gu Shiyan, who then mentioned she would have her assistant pick Sheng Tang up later.
Sheng Tang agreed.
After school in the afternoon, Sheng Tang received a call from Gu Shiyan’s manager, Dai Ning.
"Tangtang, Yu will pick you up at your school gate. Please wait around thirty minutes," Dai Ning said, "It’s very congested; she should be there by now, but she’s stuck in traffic."
"It’s okay, I can wait," Sheng Tang replied.
Dai Ning chuckled and hung up.
Today’s class monitor was Jiang Baocu, who needed to wipe the blackboard and tidy up the podium.
Huishi High School had dedicated cleaning staff, so "class monitors" didn’t need to sweep the floor vigorously; they just had to open and lock the doors in the morning and evening and wipe down the blackboard.
Sheng Tang was doing her homework beside her, waiting for Gu Shiyan’s company people to arrive.
Once Jiang Baocu was done, they left the classroom together.
By now, there were hardly any people left at the school gate, and Gu Shiyan’s assistant was still stuck in rush hour traffic.
Jiang Baocu’s car had already arrived.
Sheng Tang told her, "You go ahead; I’m waiting for someone to pick me up. I have some business to attend to."
Knowing the secret between Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting, Jiang Baocu thought it was Gu Shiting coming to pick her up. She gave Sheng Tang a cryptic smile before getting into her car and leaving.
Sheng Tang glanced at her watch.
Just then, a business car stopped in front of her.
Sheng Tang remembered that Gu Shiyan’s assistant used a nanny car to carry a lot of clothes and makeup.
She looked carefully, and the car door opened. A middle-aged man stepped out and quietly looked at her.
He was wearing a light blue coat, with a sweater and jeans of the same color underneath, looking very casual.
He smiled nervously at Sheng Tang, "Tangtang."
