Chapter 720: Shocking the World
Chapter 720: Shocking the World
"Lin Feng, where are you?" Ding Wan’er asked excitedly. Her heart was already brimming with excitement. The news had already been released, and it was time to start making the relevant preparations, so she couldn’t wait to be by Lin Feng’s side to talk about these issues.
"I’m at home." Lin Feng found it strange to receive a call from Ding Wan’er this early. Why was she calling him so early?
"Sister Leng and I are going to your place to talk about the concert arrangements," Ding Wan’er stated her purpose directly, unable to wait any longer.
"Alright, just come straight to my senior sister’s place then," Lin Feng said casually in response, knowing that Ding Wan’er must be very excited to call him this early. However, Lin Feng had no idea what had happened after he left Chu Meng’s house last night.
"We’re on our way." Right after saying this, Ding Wan’er ended the call and, after changing clothes with Leng Mei, they drove straight to Chu Meng’s house, a place they had both visited before and knew well.
After hanging up, Lin Feng started busily preparing breakfast for his parents. After the family had breakfast, Lin Feng went to wait at his senior sister’s house for Ding Wan’er and her companion.
...
An hour later...
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei’s car pulled up at the front gate, and they rushed straight into Chu Meng’s house. They really wanted to see Lin Feng, to have him answer all their questions. On the drive over, Ding Wan’er received several congratulatory calls, and there were even others who wanted to use Ding Wan’er to persuade Su Xiaoxi to schedule more concerts, indicating just how much of a sensation the news had caused.
Upon entering, they saw Lin Feng and Chu Meng sitting on the sofa. Without saying much, they sat down next to Lin Feng, quickly greeted Chu Meng, and then Ding Wan’er started asking.
"Lin Feng, how did you get Su Xiaoxi to agree to hold a concert at Yingbo University?" Ding Wan’er, with a smile, voiced the question that had been troubling her since the previous night. Even though she knew Lin Feng was capable of anything, getting Su Xiaoxi to agree to a concert at Yingbo University wasn’t an easy feat.
Leng Mei looked at Lin Feng with her usual cool expression, but she was just as curious about how Lin Feng had managed to do it.
"It’s simple, I saved Su Xiaoxi, then she agreed to help me out," Lin Feng explained plainly; indeed, he had saved Su Xiaoxi, and that was why she had agreed to the concert at Yingbo University.
"Ah! So that’s what happened! But what’s this about Su Xiaoxi’s contract with Tianxing Entertainment and the signing with Jones Corporation?" Upon hearing that Lin Feng had rescued Su Xiaoxi, Ding Wan’er immediately understood the situation. It was quite normal for Lin Feng, with his extraordinary abilities, to save someone, which explained everything. As for the details of the rescue, Ding Wan’er didn’t want to know; she was too eager to learn all about Su Xiaoxi’s situation.
"Jones Corporation was acquired by my senior sister, so I poached Su Xiaoxi to our side. It’s that simple," Lin Feng answered again, quite indifferently. The matter was indeed that simple, except that it had happened so suddenly that there hadn’t been time to inform Ding Wan’er and the others.
"What!"
"Jones Corporation was acquired by Sister Chu?"
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei’s eyes widened in shock. After reading the news about Su Xiaoxi on the internet the previous night, they had specifically looked up Jones Corporation. It was already stated online that Jones Corporation had been acquired by someone as swiftly as lightning. Knowing that it was an international entertainment giant, it was certainly puzzling, and they had not anticipated that it would turn out to be Chu Meng who was behind the acquisition. That was simply inconceivable!
Besides being shocked, they were also very curious. They had long since known about Chu Meng’s circumstances, but Chu Meng’s sudden takeover of Jones Corporation meant she could easily dispose of dozens of billions of capital. That was outrageous; wasn’t Chu Meng supposed to be without any resources? How could she have so much money, and why would she acquire an entertainment company?
"There’s no need to be so shocked. Jones Corporation was a dark hand aiming at Cloud Fund; it’s quite normal for Sister Chu to strike at them," Lin Feng explained, understanding the expression on Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei’s faces. There was no need to hide anything from them.
"Yes, it was the situation that little brother found out about last night, so in a fit of anger, I simply acquired Jones Corporation. However, I didn’t expect my little brother to bring Su Xiaoxi over," Chu Meng added her explanation. Honestly, she too wouldn’t have believed that Lin Feng could bring Su Xiaoxi over if she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes last night. Therefore, the shocked expressions on Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei were completely understandable.
"So that’s how it is."
"That’s not bad at all."
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei finally understood what had happened when they heard this. Now everything that occurred last night made sense. However, deep down, they both had a feeling that things might not be as simple as Lin Feng described; something else must have happened, but since Lin Feng didn’t elaborate, they didn’t ask. After all, knowing that the outcome was positive was enough for them.
It was at this moment Lin Jie walked out of the room.
"Sister Wan’er, Sister Leng, how are you? What brings you here?" Lin Jie, after hearing voices from the living room, changed her clothes and walked out. She was pleasantly surprised to see Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei there, and rushed over to them with excitement.
Last night at the concert, she had already talked a lot with Ding Wan’er and grew to like her very much from the bottom of her heart. So seeing Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei in the living room was thrilling for her. She had been planning to discuss the concert with Ding Wan’er and had not expected them to show up early in the morning, saving her the effort of looking for them.
"Lin Jie, did you stay over at Sister’s place last night?"
"Hello Lin Jie."
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei were also delighted to see Lin Jie. They genuinely liked the pure and innocent Lin Jie. They had communicated well with her during the concert last night and had resolved the knots in her heart. By now, they had completely accepted her as one of their own. However, Ding Wan’er was curious; Lin Jie was supposed to be staying at the school, so why had she come over to Sister’s place?
"Yes, I stayed here last night. Sister Wan’er, I’ve already discussed with Brother Lin Feng about taking care of some things for the concert. I was just going to look for you, and it’s so great that you’re here," Lin Jie quickly replied to Ding Wan’er, promptly bringing up the concert preparations. That was what she cared about most at the moment, so she brought it up immediately, hoping Ding Wan’er would assign her tasks. She was eager to gain some experience from this concert.
"No problem at all, I just don’t know how exactly we’re supposed to go about this concert yet. Oh right, Lin Feng, how exactly are we supposed to hold this concert?" After hearing what Lin Jie said, Ding Wan’er agreed without hesitation. Since Lin Feng had made this arrangement, it meant he wanted Lin Jie to learn something from the experience. Whatever Lin Feng had agreed to, she would support unconditionally.
But even now, Ding Wan’er didn’t know how to proceed with the concert. She thought there was plenty of time left, but the whole of Tianhai had been abuzz since last night. They couldn’t delay any longer, so she and Leng Mei had come over early in the morning to discuss how to manage the concert with Lin Feng.
"The scale of this concert has to be huge! Because Su Xiaoxi’s performance at Yingbo University will absolutely shock the world!" Lin Feng simply stated, recalling Su Xiaoxi’s performance from the night before backstage. He was utterly confident. As long as Su Xiaoxi performed normally, the concert at Yingbo University would indeed shock the world.
"Shock the world!"
"What do you mean?"
"How will it shock the world?"
"Junior Brother, you haven’t explained how it will shock the world yet?"
...
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the four women felt his statement was difficult to comprehend and even more unbelievable. Although Su Xiaoxi was a Mandarin pop princess, it was impossible for her to compare to those international megastars. Even if she held an extraordinarily grand concert, it couldn’t possibly shock the entire world. Her current popularity and appeal simply couldn’t achieve that—a truly impossible feat!
However, all four women knew that Lin Feng never spoke without basis, and if he said it could be done, then it surely could. They were all very curious about how Lin Feng would accomplish such a miraculous feat.
"You will find out very soon. Lin Jie, go find Su Xiaoxi." Lin Feng, seeing the astonished expressions of the four women, didn’t explain further and just asked Lin Jie to find Su Xiaoxi. Once Su Xiaoxi started singing, the truth would emerge naturally.
"Okay, Brother Lin Feng." Lin Jie got up immediately upon hearing Lin Feng’s instructions and headed to the guest room to find Su Xiaoxi. She was also full of questions. What special event would happen with Su Xiaoxi’s appearance? She had heard Su Xiaoxi sing before, so how could it... shock the world?
"Su Xiaoxi is here too?"
"Su Xiaoxi?"
When Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei heard what Lin Feng said, their eyes widened in surprise. They truly had not expected Su Xiaoxi to be there. Could it be that Su Xiaoxi also stayed at Sister’s place last night? How could that be possible? How could she possibly be at Sister’s?
