Breakup at the Start: A Song That Makes Him a Legend, and the School Beauty Pursues Him

Lu Mengyao's eyes flashed instantly: "You look down on him so much, but who was it that went to his humble abode three times and begged him on WeChat to get his attention? Well, you're particularly prone to going back on your word and have a bad memory. You promised to write a song for Qin Shou, but then you went back on your word. Now you're the one who's praising one person while putting down another."

Upon hearing Lu Mengyao's words, Chen Kuang's expression turned quite ugly.

There were people around who all seemed to be enjoying the show.

Chen Kuang was somewhat embarrassed.

After all, it's wrong of him to break his promise, but wasn't he forced to do so?

Besides, Qin Shou was putting on airs for him; where was he supposed to save face?

Now that Lu Mengyao has brought up the old matter again, it's like slapping him hard across the face several times.

Chen Kuang immediately cowered, especially when the CEO asked unexpectedly, "Is that so?"

"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!" Chen Kuangqian laughed. "It's just a scheduling conflict."

"It's not a misunderstanding. He did it on purpose. He just wanted to be bribed by Director Xu so that Xia Wan Ning could release an album first," Lu Mengyao said coldly.

She could tolerate being wronged herself, but she couldn't let Qin Shou suffer any injustice; she had to get justice for him.

The CEO said in a deep voice, "I have high hopes for Qin Shou's future, and I don't want anyone in the company to neglect him!"

After all, Xu Lai values ​​him highly; if he didn't do Xu Lai a favor, wouldn't that offend Xu Lai?

Besides, by promoting Qin Shou, they would definitely make a lot of money. Qin Shou is highly experienced and quite handsome.

When Chen Kuang saw the president's cold gaze sweep over him, he suddenly shuddered.

The company president still has absolute authority. Although I am somewhat famous, I still have to listen to the boss's arrangements. Otherwise, if I offend the boss, my fame in the industry will be short-lived.

This line of work comes out quickly and disappears just as fast.

Chen Kuang quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, my attitude was really bad before, Lu Mengyao, please don't mind! I will definitely not neglect Qin Shou, and I am optimistic about Qin Shou's development, it's just... Master Xu Lai is really amazing, I'm afraid that if word gets out that he hasn't taken on any disciples, it will not be good for his reputation."

Just as Lu Mengyao was about to speak, she heard a scolding voice: "How can you say that's not true!"

Just then, Xu Lai walked in from outside the door.

He was extremely serious, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, and exuded an imposing aura.

When everyone saw him appear, they were stunned and too respectful to utter a sound.

This is a super big shot!

Even the CEO showed him a degree of respect.

She quickly gestured to her secretary, "Come, pour some tea for Teacher Xu!"

"There's no need. I just came to see Qin Shou, but I couldn't sit still since I didn't see him." Xu Lai leaned back in her chair, very quiet.

Upon hearing this, in order to reassure Xu Lai, the president quickly told his secretary, "Go and call Qin Shou over."

The secretary nodded and hurried off to fetch the person.

Xu Lai sat in his seat, befitting his status as a big shot. His serious gaze swept over Chen Kuang, who dared not move.

As Chen Kuang trembled with fear, Xu Lai said coldly, "I heard you bullied my future disciple?"

"A future disciple?" Chen Kuang was dumbfounded.

"It's Qin Shou," Xu Lai said arrogantly. "It was bound to happen sooner or later anyway, and I will definitely make him my only disciple."

"I..." Chen Kuang reacted in the same way as everyone else.

They initially thought Lu Mengyao was joking. After all, it sounded absurd that someone as important as Xu Lai would accept her as a disciple, not to mention that Qin Shou had refused. It was unlikely that anyone would do that.

I never thought it would actually happen!

Chen Kuang still felt some regret.

If he had known Qin Shou was so powerful that Xu Lai would have stepped in, then he shouldn't have stood Qin Shou up in the first place.

If I could build a good relationship with Qin Shou, wouldn't Xu Lai start to look at me differently?

Lu Mengyao promptly corrected Xu Lai: "It's not just true, it's absolutely true."

Xu Lai's eyes darkened instantly, and she slammed her hand on the table: "Outrageous! I thought you all should fawn over him, that he was having a great time at the company, but I didn't expect him to be treated so unfairly. Well, you're all too small to accommodate this big shot. I might as well just terminate his contract and start a company for him, then I'll just support him and be done with it!"

Xu Lai also has a temper.

He admired Qin Shou's music and his proud spirit.

Qin Shou is a genius! He plays so well. Even if we have to spend some money to promote him in the early stages, it's a small amount. Qin Shou has value, and I believe that his net worth will skyrocket someday. No matter how much money we invest, it will be a sure thing.

Moreover, Xu Lai has valued this promising young man for decades, how could he let Qin Shou suffer the slightest injustice?

A bad mood can impurities in music. He wanted Qin Shou to focus on music so that he could live a free and untroubled life and reach a higher level.

Everyone gasped.

Is this the happiness of the rich? Casually creating a company just to support Qin Shou?

This is like a dream come true; it's something no one would have dared to imagine.

Not to mention that this blatant favoritism came from Xu Lai.

Chen Kuang trembled, and faced with the boss's questioning, he could only manage a dry laugh: "It really was just a small misunderstanding. I'm just not good with words, and I speak my mind without thinking. I didn't mean any harm."

"No malice? I just listened to you and it was full of malice." Xu Lai's eyes darkened.

Lu Mengyao walked up to Chen Kuang, who was so intimidated by her aura that he dared not make any rash moves.

"Bang—"

A hard slap landed on Chen Kuang's face.

Those who heard the crisp sound of the slap felt pain.

Chen Kuang was in pain from the slap, and he felt tears welling up in his eyes.

He was furious when he saw the arrogant Lu Mengyao in front of him. He never expected that Lu Mengyao, whom he usually suppressed, would actually defy him.

"Are you crazy?!" Chen Kuang gritted his teeth.

Lu Mengyao wiped her spotless palms with a wet tissue and said calmly, "I'm sorry, I'm just a bit quick-handed. I accidentally hit you like that. I couldn't control myself. I didn't mean any harm."

Lu Mengyao had wanted to fight her way up for a long time, and now she finally got her chance.

Even if the consequences are severe, it doesn't matter as long as it's to vent Qin Shou's anger.

She was simply disgusted by Chen Kuang.

Just as Chen Kuangzheng was about to give Lu Mengyao a severe scolding with a fierce look in his eyes, he heard a burst of applause.

Chen Kuang looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the person clapping was Xu Lai.

Xu Lai, completely relaxed, raised his head and said, "Well done."

This really dampened Chen Kuang's momentum.

He dared not provoke Xu Lai, such a powerful figure, who could easily use his connections to trip him up in the future.

So Xu Lai, who was just full of resentment, now held her face and could only laugh awkwardly: "Yes, yes, you hit me well. I was feeling hot and bothered, and now I can cool down."

"He's a complete jerk, so unreliable, but Ms. Xu, you can trust that Qin Shou has never been wronged at the company!" The president flattered Xu Lai, then glared at Chen Kuang, complaining that he was a useless teammate who was dragging the company down.

The president has just seen a money-making opportunity; can he just throw it away? And to offend Xu Lai over it would be incredibly stupid!

Xu Kuang was furious. He hadn't expected to be slapped by Lu Mengyao and then insulted like this by his boss.

But he still had to put on a smiling face, which was probably the most humiliating moment in his career.

The people around him were secretly laughing, which made Xu Kuang lose face.

Director Xu was almost driven mad with jealousy; she hadn't expected Xu Lai to like Qin Shou so much.

Then Qin Shou's patron is Xu Lai.

If Qin Shou relies on Xu Lai's connections, his rise will definitely be rapid, and he'll surely consume all the company's resources. How will her other artists survive then? Especially since she was determined to pave the way for her newly signed Xia Wan Ning, she didn't expect Qin Shou to become such a roadblock.

Director Xu's eyes lit up, and he came up with another good idea.
