Xu Fan nodded and left the office. The middle-aged man said, "Mr. Xu came all the way from China just to get treatment for his mother. His filial piety is truly touching."

Xu Fan asked, "Are you Chinese?"

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "My name is Zhou Huaping. I am of Chinese descent. I immigrated to England with my parents when I was three years old, so I know some Chinese."

Xu Fan nodded, then frowned, and Zhou Huaping said, "That's right, Zhonghai Cancer Hospital, your mother's attending physician is my brother."

Xu Fan suddenly understood; no wonder there was such a route to the Kingdom of Gran. He then said, "Thank you!"

Zhou Huaping shook his head and said, "You're welcome. I've heard your story from my brother. I was very moved and I also really like your song 'Sorrow'."

Xu Fan thanked him again. Just then, a middle-aged man with a similar Chinese face walked over to Zhou Huaping and said, "Mr. Zhou, it's been a long time."

As they were talking, under Xu Fan's gaze, the man stuffed a thick envelope into Zhou Huaping's hand.

Zhou Huaping touched the thickness of the envelope and said, "Brother Wang, what do you mean by this?"

The man chuckled and said, "Mr. Zhou is joking. It's nothing, just a token gesture."

Zhou Huaping nodded, put the envelope in his pocket, and said, "You're really interesting."

After saying that, Zhou Huaping patted the other person on the shoulder, and the man left happily.

Zhou Huaping looked at Xu Fan somewhat embarrassed and said, "I'm really sorry, that guy was quite interesting just now. They didn't mean anything by it, but they were sensible."

Xu Fan watched as Zhou Huaping perfectly captured a certain quality in many Chinese people, and for a moment, he seemed to have a sudden realization.

Openly accepting bribes—that's probably what we just saw.

Another possibility is that he's actually putting on an act for himself.

Xu Fan nodded seriously and said, "It's only right to show some appreciation."

Zhou Huaping nodded and said, "Oh! There's no need to make such a fuss. Look, it's just that their child has a small tumor. It's not a big deal."

Even if Xu Fan was stupid, he understood what it meant.

People with small tumors receive such large red envelopes, but your mother has cancer, it's not something that can be solved with just a red envelope.

After saying that, Zhou Huaping turned and left.

Xu Fan wanted to ask something more, but he didn't get a chance.

He didn't think his mother's attending physician, Zhou Huajian, would have any other thoughts, because based on his previous understanding, Dr. Zhou wasn't that kind of person.

However, Dr. Zhou's younger brother, Zhou Huaping, a Chinese-Canadian of British descent, has mastered the profound and extensive Chinese language.

The word "meaning" alone can evoke a wide variety of different interpretations.

Then, recalling the doctor named Kundun and this Zhou Huaping, he suddenly understood something.

I don't have much money on me right now, only about £300,000.

We don't know how much money will be needed for my mother's treatment.

However, he knew very well that sometimes the money needed to treat an illness was not just for medicine.

After leaving the hospital, Xu Fan planned to go to Grand Bank to withdraw £100,000 in cash.

However, Xu Fan was stunned as soon as he got into the car.

Winnie, who was driving, said happily, "Hello Mr. Xu, it's nice to see you again."

Xu Fan said, "Yes, let's go to Grand Bank."

Winnie nodded, and said in surprise as she drove, "Mr. Xu, your guitar playing is really beautiful. Your Chinese kung fu is also really amazing."

Xu Fan looked at Winnie with a puzzled expression. Winnie smiled and said, "You've become popular on Twitter. Everyone calls you 'Chinese Boy,' but only I know your real name is Xu Fan."

Xu Fan smiled but didn't say anything.

It seems that whether I become famous or not is entirely unintentional.

They didn't even realize it, and suddenly they became famous.

He came to Gran Country only to get his mother medical treatment; fame was something he didn't even consider.

Winnie suddenly asked, "Mr. Xu, does everyone in China know kung fu?"

Xu Fan really didn't want to explain such a boring topic, so he nodded.

Looking out the window, Winnie escorted Xu Fan to the bank entrance and said with a smile, "Mr. Xu, I think we'll meet again."

Xu Fan responded with a smile.

Withdraw the money and see Quinton again.

Without further ado, when £100,000 in cash was placed on Quinton's table, Quinton's eyes widened.

Xu Fan coldly replied, "I want my mother to be healthy. If she recovers, you'll be well paid; if she doesn't,..."

Xu Fan left the office. Zhou Huaping found Xu Fan, but Xu Fan left without saying a word.

The process didn't take long, but it left Xu Fan feeling somewhat exhausted. In reality, whether in China or abroad, it seems that sometimes you need to spend money to solve certain problems.

So his current thought has become extremely simple: to find a way to make some money.

Returning to China is not a consideration for now. My mother's treatment hasn't officially started yet, and it's obviously not right for me to leave like this.

Her university major was nursing; it was a pipe dream to think she could make money from it.

At least it can't satisfy his current need for money, so the only way to make money is singing, since it seems that his biggest advantage right now is singing.

Although Winnie said he became popular on Twitter in England, he was well aware that he might have a certain fan base in China, and some of his better songs could also bring him financial support.

For example, the purchase of playback rights for Tencent Music.

But this is extremely difficult abroad.

Just as Xu Fan was considering this matter, he received a message from Chen Yuanyuan on his phone.

Just a few words: Come to St. Lomartin Street.

Xu Fan had no objection to this. He also wanted to take a look at the night view of Grand Country and see if there was any opportunity to make money.

As the sun gradually rises in the country, the night sky over Gran has also appeared, with a moon hanging in the sky above Gran.

Even in a foreign land, the starry sky can be quite beautiful at night.

If someone asks where the best place to go in Granada is at night, most people would answer the Granada-style bar street.

If you walk straight down St. Lomartin, you'll see bars and nightclubs scattered around the area.

The pedestrians here all seem leisurely and slow.

Chen Yuanyuan, along with Xu Fan and Xia Ziling, prepared to go to a bar in the area.

Vienna Bar!

This bar is located inside a very atmospheric Gothic church.

A beautiful Victorian organ is prominently displayed. Its pleasant, natural sound means that whoever is on stage has the opportunity to shine.

The bartenders mix cocktails with strange and unusual names while mingling with their stylish and unconventional customers.

The three yellow-skinned Chinese people who entered did not seem special.

Because here, it's not just people from England; it's a gathering place for young people from all over the world who love music and late at night.

Get the perfect music system at the start

===Chapter 77 Xu Fan of China===

There are many people with yellow skin here, but it seems that there are only three Chinese people.

The rest are from island nations or countries with lowbrow cultures, and of course, the majority still have white or black skin.

Chen Yuanyuan linked arms with Xia Ziling, and Xu Fan followed behind them.

The upbeat DJ music was a pleasure to listen to. Xia Ziling ordered three cocktails, handed one to Xu Fan, and said, "Haven't you asked Auntie if she's feeling better yet?"

Xu Fan said, "The results aren't out yet."

Xia Ziling nodded, took out a silver pendant from her pocket, pushed it in front of Xu Fan, and said calmly, "I saw this by chance, so I'm giving it to you."

"give me?"

Xu Fan looked at Xia Ziling with a puzzled expression.

Xia Ziling glared at her, then held out her hand and said, "Never mind."

She was about to take it when Xu Fan grabbed it first. The silver pendant wasn't anything special, but she still said, "Thank you!"

Chen Yuanyuan gripped her wine glass tightly in both hands, looking at the two of them, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

Just then, the music in the bar suddenly started playing very energetically, and a group of people were screaming and jumping around.

Suddenly, a man from Scotland holding a microphone at the front shouted, "Welcome to Vienna Bar! We're here once a week, and tonight we're continuing. Let's choose tonight's random singer!"

Screams erupted, and the bar suddenly became lively.

Unlike the quiet bars in China, the bars in Vienna are quite noisy, with much louder music, making them more like nightclubs or dance halls in China.

Xu Fan asked with some confusion, "What does 'suddenly singing' mean?"

Chen Yuanyuan said from the side, "In this kind of DJ setting, Vienna Bar will randomly select one lucky person to sing one day a week. There is a professional sound mixing team, professional DJs, and professional microphones, so no matter who is selected, their singing will not be too different."

Xia Ziling wasn't quite sure about this either, so she asked curiously, "What does singing have to do with luck?"

Seeing that neither of them knew, Chen Yuanyuan didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "Because the person who sings will receive a reward of at least £100,000."

Xia Ziling nodded thoughtfully, showing no interest in the £100,000.

Xu Fan was slightly expectant, but he also knew that with hundreds of people in the bar, the probability of being chosen was extremely low.

Chen Yuanyuan suddenly turned around and looked at Xu Fan, saying, "Xu Fan, can you sing English songs?"

Xu Fan thought for a moment and realized he seemed to have two English songs in his mind, so he nodded.

Xia Ziling said to Chen Yuanyuan from the side, "His English is worse than mine."

Chen Yuanyuan looked at Xia Ziling with some surprise and asked uncertainly, "Really?"

Xia Ziling nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case, but just then, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Hey sir, we meet again."

The black guitarist Gulu appeared out of nowhere and greeted Xu Fan.
