Chapter 355: To Work

"When I first heard her sing. That moment. I knew I wanted to become a singer." His drive and his talent. All of it came from his mother. 

After his mother's death, Zhang Jian wanted to finish his mother's dream. 

"..." Lu Chen was surprised. He didn't think the reason for singing was because of this.

Lu Chen knew before that Zhang Jian had some issues with his family. But he never thought it was this serious.

Before Lu Chen can react, Zhang Jian suddenly collapses!

"Zhang Jian!" Lu Chen quickly pulls him up. When he looks at his face, Lu Chen sighs in relief. 

'Thank goodness, he's just asleep.' Lu Chen sighs. How could he dose off without a care in the world after saying something so heavy? 

Lu Chen picks him off the ground and brings him to his car. 

...

"Uggggh." The next day, Zhang Jian wakes up with a big headache. His body wobbles left and right. The number of drinks he consumed came back hitting like a freight train. 

"So you're up." Zhang Jian looks to the side and notices Lu Chen sleeping on his couch. 

Just from a glance, Zhang Jian can tell he's in Lu Chen's room. He asks, "What did I do yesterday?" Zhang Jian's memory was still groggy about yesterday. 

Lu Chen shakes his head, "Did drinking so much really make you forget what you did?" 

Remembering everything that happened yesterday, Zhang Jian's expression turns darker, "...Oh yeah." Just remembering what happened at his house was enough to piss him off. 

"Here." Lu Chen chucks Zhang Jian his clothes, "Get change. My mom made us breakfast." Understanding the look he has, Lu Chen didn't want him to think about it too much. 

Zhang Jian understands what he wants to do as well. He makes a light smile as he starts to change. 

...

"The food aunty makes is so good!" Zhang Jian's face looks puffy. But it's nothing compared to his stomach. He had his gut sticking out like a balloon. 

"Pull your gut in." Lu Chen shakes his head as he continues, "You know you didn't have to eat so much." Right now, the two are in his car. 

When they had breakfast, Zhang Wenling went far and beyond with her cooking.

Zhang Wenling and Lu Xiaotong were surprised when Lu Chen came home with Zhang Jian.  But seeing how drunk he was, she knew that something was wrong. 

"Hey, it's respectful to eat everything given to you. And how can I not eat aunties foo- Hey! Watch out for that bump! I don't want to throw it all back up!" Zhang Jian was going to praise Zhang Wenling's cooking, but with Lu Chen passing a speed bump, Zhang Jian was ready to bring it up.

"Don't you even think about it! If you are throwing up, use a bag." Lu Chen takes out a bag and hands it to him.

Zhang Jian holds onto it and asks him, "Why do you have a bag ready?"

"Since you yacked all over my car yesterday." Lu Chen's expression turns dark. As Lu Chen was driving back home, Zhang Jian started to throw up all over his car. It was out of nowhere and explosive. He was just lucky that none of it got on him. 

"Oh, is that why the car smells- never mind!" Zhang Jian was about to say that the car smelled funny. But the glaring gaze Lu Chen gave him made him shut up instantly. 

He changes his subject and asks, "So where are we going?" Zhang Jian's confused about where Lu Chen was bringing him. The only thing he told him was they needed to go somewhere today.

"To work." Lu Chen's words are frank and curt. After a few minutes, Lu Chen drives to a street filled with people. 

"What are we doing here?" Zhang Jian looks out the window and notices a large number of people. Now he's even more confused as to why they're here. 

"Remember any songs you composed the last few weeks?"

"Of course. I remember all of them like they're on the back of my hand." With how much he and Gong Changming worked, Zhang Jian could easily say it backward. 

"Then get ready."
