After sending Hu Ge off, Xiao Chen put Hu Ge's finished dishes into the kitchen. He washed his hands, looked at the clock on the wall, and glanced at the rack of smoked meat in the kitchen. Then, he took out his phone and squatted at the kitchen door to play.
"Hey, boss, you're so relaxed. Hurry up and serve me a serving of all the dishes on the menu!”
After a long time, Xiao Chen, who had been immersed in the world of mobile games, was awakened by a familiar female voice. He looked up and saw Ju Jingyi standing in front of him with an excited look on her face. Behind her was a mature woman whom he had never seen before.
"And this is?" Xiao Chen stood up and asked Ju Jingyi.
"Oh, this is my manager, Sister He. I invited her over for dinner today.”Ju Jingyi explained.
"Hey, little girl, you know how much I spend here, right? It looks like my family has a mine.”Xiao Chen didn't pay much attention to it. It was normal for a celebrity to be an orphan's manager.
"No, I don't usually have anything to spend money on anyway. Moreover, I have something happy today, so I have to be a little extravagant.”Ju Jingyi said excitedly to Xiao Chen, as if she was asking him what was going on.
However, Xiao Chen only replied with an indifferent " oh " before going into the kitchen to get busy. This made Ju Jingyi stomp her feet in anger.
"Little Jing, are you familiar with the owner of this shop? Why have I never seen this shop on this street?”The female manager, who was addressed as Sister He by Ju Jingyi, asked. However, her eyes kept glancing at the kitchen for some reason.
"Not bad. This shop opened yesterday, and I'm the first customer. Sister He, let me tell you, the boss of this shop is really good at cooking, but he has a strange temper.”Ju Jingyi introduced her to Sister He enthusiastically. At the same time, she held her hand and found a table to sit down at. Then, she couldn't wait to speak.
"Sister He, is what you told me this afternoon true? Do I really have a chance to be independent from HNAC?”
"Of course, I'm still more optimistic about your prospects as a second-year student, so I plan to give you this opportunity to go solo.”Sister He answered with certainty.
Ju Jingyi immediately covered her mouth with her hands, afraid that she would burst into cheers.
"However, there is a small test for this solo opportunity.”Sister He suddenly said.
"What test?" Ju Jingyi asked curiously.
Sister He glanced at Ju Jingyi with a complicated look in her eyes. After a moment of hesitation, she finally said,""You're planning to debut as a singer, right?”
"Yes, I am." Ju Jingyi nodded seriously.
"For this solo opportunity, the company will specially customize a mini album for you, which is also commonly known as a single album. However, this song must be a high-quality and excellent song. After all, this is your first time facing the audience as an independent singer, so you have to leave a deep impression on them.”Sister He said slowly.
"Is that so? Then where can I get a song of this level? Sister He, can you help me?" Ju Jingyi looked at Sister He and asked for help.
Sister He shook her head and said helplessly,""This exam is targeted at you. I can provide you with resources, but I can't interfere with anything else. You can find a professional musician to ask for a song or write an original song yourself, but the quality must pass.”
"Ah…" At this moment, Ju Jingyi's expression instantly turned cold. It was easy to say that it was a high-quality original song, but it was unrealistic for her to get it herself.
"That's all. You should grasp it well. I still have to go to a meeting. I appreciate your kindness. Treat me to this meal when you officially debut on your own.”Sister He looked at Ju Jingyi with a reluctant expression. She sighed softly and comforted Ju Jingyi. Then, she left in a hurry.
At this moment, Ju Jingyi could only nod her head in a daze. She buried her head in silence.
When Xiao Chen came out with the dishes, he found that Ju Jingyi was alone in the dining room. He didn't know where Sister He had gone. When he approached Ju Jingyi, he immediately felt a sense of despair.
"Girl, what's wrong with you? You look so dead. Weren't you quite high before? Where's your manager?”Xiao Chen put down the plate in his hand and asked Ju Jingyi, who had her head lowered.
“......”
Ju Jingyi didn't look up, nor did she answer Xiao Chen's question. She just lowered her head. Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows, feeling that something was wrong.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's time to eat." Xiao Chen sat opposite Ju Jingyi and knocked on the table, but there was still no response.
Xiao Chen shrugged his shoulders helplessly. Then, he put on a fierce look and said to Ju Jingyi,""If you don't look up, I'm going to throw you out.”
"Smelly boss, you don't even know how to understand other people's feelings. If you want to throw it away, then throw it.”Finally, Ju Jingyi raised her head and complained to Xiao Chen. Her eyes were red, and her voice was choked with sobs. It was obvious that she had been crying.
"Who bullied you? Could it be that manager from earlier? Don't tell me she wants you to accompany some producer or investor? Tell me if it's true. If it is, I'll help you break her legs.”Xiao Chen was shocked. Then, a familiar scene appeared in his mind. He slapped the table and asked Ju Jingyi. It was as if he would go out and kill people with a kitchen knife if she said yes.
"Ah, no, Boss, what do you mean?”Ju Jingyi asked Xiao Chen.
"Uh, it's good that you're not. I didn't mean to say that.”Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief and answered her question.
"Boss, what should I do now?”Ju Jingyi looked at Xiao Chen helplessly. It seemed that she could only confide in Xiao Chen now.
However, Xiao Chen was stunned by Ju Jingyi's question. What the f * ck is the point of looking at me helplessly if you don't tell me what's going on? I can't read minds.
