Chapter 195: It’s an Unrequited Love

Wu Ting forcefully swallowed back the profanity that was on the tip of his tongue.

He took a deep breath and said after calming himself down, “You’re not announcing a relationship. You don’t want to discuss this, you don’t want to say that. You even hid everything so well. Since you’re not going to reveal who the woman is, why did you post this on Weibo?”

Jiang Xingyi thought of Jiang Yu and his expression softened a little. “To express my gratitude, I hope she can feel it.”

Perhaps Little Sister doesn’t care about such things.

However, in Jiang Xingyi’s heart, even though he had already expressed his gratitude verbally, he still wanted to express it publicly in front of everyone.

To put it simply, Jiang Xingyi wanted to be a bit mysterious and secretly expose his little sister. He wanted everyone to find out that he and Little Sister had composed this song together.

In the beginning, he didn’t think that everyone would think that he was in a relationship. After all, as someone who had been a bachelor for over the twenty years since he’s been in his mother’s womb, that thought had not occurred to Jiang Xingyi.

However, since Wu Ting had already thought so, Jiang Xingyi thought about it and realized that this wasn’t bad at all.

This could prevent budding female artists from knocking on his door in the middle of the night. This should reduce this kind of thing from happening in the future, right?

Wu Ting clicked his tongue and said mockingly, “So it’s an unrequited love.”

He looked at Jiang Xingyi as if he had been through this before. “I understand your feelings. The other party hasn’t figured out your identity yet, if not, she’d be begging to tie to knot with you. I didn’t expect that the great singer, Jiang Xingyi, would one day be wrapped around the fingers of a girl. I’ve lived long enough to see this.”

Jiang Xingyi didn’t say anything.

He would show him what a long life truly means in the future.

“Since you have not confessed to her yet, I’ll forget about it. I’ll explain it to the higher-ups. From now on, stop posting anything on Weibo. Wait for this matter to die off. Anyway, your Weibo doesn’t admit it openly, and our company won’t bother clarifying it. The memory of fans are short, so most of them will definitely be unwilling to believe it. Slowly, this news will be buried.”

Wu Ting thought of a way out and looked at Xiao Fan coldly. “Keep an eye on him! You need to earn your keep! If you don’t keep a good eye on him, just pack up and get out!”

Xiao Fan agreed in a trembling voice.

Wu Ting glanced at Jiang Xingyi and was about to leave when he suddenly saw the black stud on Jiang Xingyi’s left ear from the corner of his eye.

He stopped and suddenly thought of something. He asked out of the blue, “Have you… found her?”

“Who?”

Wu Ting looked at him and saw that he was confused. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Fan, who was even more confused, then he turned around and left.

After Wu Ting left, Jiang Xingyi’s expression suddenly darkened.

His fingers couldn’t help but touch the stud on his left ear. Seeing his phone screen light up from time to time, he was a little upset.

It was his own fault cause he was being stupid.

When he first entered this industry, he had been cheated by many people. At that time, he was ridiculed by Father Jiang and was demoted to the mud.

Jiang Xingyi was young and impetuous, he refused to admit defeat. He left his home and insisted on making his own way in the entertainment industry. Then, he met Wu Ting.

Back then, Wu Ting was just a small-time manager. He did not have many connections. Just like Jiang Xingyi who had left the support of the Jiang family, he was a hot-blooded young man and said that he wanted to make music his own way.

The two poor teenagers hit it off immediately. They supported each other and made their way through the industry. In the beginning, no one paid attention to them and they ran into obstacles at every turn. Later, by chance, Wu Ting signed him up for a talent show. Jiang Xingyi won first place in the singing competition and suddenly became popular.

Since then, he has received many offers and endorsements, the concert halls were always full, the new albums released sold out. Once the online album was released, it immediately swept through all the charts.

Over time though, Wu Ting changed.

Jiang Xingyi just wanted to make music, while Wu Ting wanted to increase Jiang Xingyi’s popularity no matter what.

After being in the industry for such a long time, he has seen too many people who were like a flash in the pan. They were extremely popular for a while before quickly fading away. Wu Ting who had already suffered enough did not want to return to his previous life.

The most painful thing was to gain and then lose everything. Now that he was standing at the top, he naturally did not want to return to the mud.

Jiang Xingyi could understand his sentiment but he also had his own wishes. The two of them had a standing disagreement over this matter.

However, even when he was in the direst of situations, Jiang Xingyi never once thought of returning to the Jiang family. That was why he never told Wu Ting about his family. Wu Ting thought that he was from a poor family. He didn’t know that Jiang Xingyi was connected to the wealthy and powerful Jiang family.

That was why Jiang Xingyi didn’t want to reveal Jiang Yu’s identity to Wu Ting.

Knowing Wu Ting’s character, he might go and disturb his little sister. He might even cause some unnecessary trouble by following the clues. After all, if Wu Ting continued to force him to do things that he didn’t want, he would really fall out with him one day. At that time, what if his little sister gets involved?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xingyi suddenly regretted his impulsiveness.

He unlocked his phone and clicked into Weibo.

Xiao Fan saw him click on the familiar icon and hurriedly stopped him, “Brother Xingyi, don’t be rash! Please calm down! I know you just finished talking to Brother Wu, so you might not be in a good mood but please consider my position, Brother Xingyi!”

Xiao Fan said with a sad face, “I have an old man and a young son to take care of. I’m barely an adult myself. Please don’t torture me anymore!”

Jiang Xingyi said casually, “I’m not posting on Weibo.”

Xiao Fan said weakly, “Then, Brother Xingyi, please put down your phone. I… I’m afraid…”

Jiang Xingyi’s fingers scrolled up until he found the content that he wanted to see.

His fingers flitted around a few more times before swiftly exiting the app.

When Xiao Fan saw that Jiang Xingyi had exited Weibo, he felt a little more at ease.

Hmmm, he really didn’t type anything just now.

Then, the netizens who were waiting to see more noticed that Jiang Xingyi had clicked into a few Weibo posts. The contents of the Weibo posts were:

[Did anyone else notice that the song’s composer is Jiang Xingyi and an unknown named “Spicy Beef”? What kind of name is that? is this a new composer? Can anyone enlighten me?]

[Composer: Spicy Beef. What lame name is this?! ]

[It’s not a bad name. This song is really good. I couldn’t help but flip through the composition list when I heard it. Is this Chili Beef Jiang Xingyi’s new collaborator? I’m looking forward to more songs!]

Everyone: ???

Wait a minute, it was acceptable to receive one like, it might have been a slip of the hand.

To like so many posts though, that was too much!

It was clearly intentional!

After Jiang Xingyi finished dealing with Weibo, he thought for a moment, looked at the time, and dialed Jiang Yu’s number.

No one picked up.
