Chapter 88: Heart-to-heart talk with Snake
Su Yinian was a little confused.
The second brother, the third sister, and I am the fourth brother? Why does this plot and character setting sound so familiar and a little weird?
It was not until Su Yinian walked out of the tutors' exclusive lounge in a daze that he suddenly remembered why the names 'Su Yanzhou' and 'Su Ziyang' sounded so familiar.
Aren’t these the second stepbrother and younger stepbrother that the original body picked up from the Su family?
No wonder it sounded so familiar to her, the 'third sister who ran away from home for many years' mentioned by Gu Si was the original, which was the script she had received now!
Su Yinian, who realized it belatedly, couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.
If she had known this earlier, she would have asked Su Beichen and Gu Si how they knew about her relationship with the Su family.
But the more you talk, the more mistakes you make.
Su Yinian thought, it would be fine to let them misunderstand that he was Su Ziyang, since Su Ziyang was not in City A at the moment anyway...
What's more, she didn't admit that she was Su Ziyang just now, she just didn't deny it.
The most urgent task is to solve Ji Mufeng’s problem.
Su Yinian frowned slightly, trying to sort out his thoughts from the mess in his mind.
It is known that Ji Mufeng is the young master of AK Entertainment. He and Jiang Xiubai used to be close friends with similar interests.
……
……
……
So what is the reason that caused Jiang Xiubai to become indifferent to Ji Mufeng, while Ji Mufeng still can't forget Jiang Xiubai?
Su Yinian's mind was blank and he couldn't figure it out.
Brainstorming has never been her forte. People in the martial arts world hate twists and turns the most, especially since she is the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect! What kind of problem does she, the leader of a sect, need to think about personally?
In the past, she would simply kill the troublemaker with a single sword.
Well, such a crude idea sounds a bit unreasonable, making her seem like a demon cultivator who does all kinds of evil...
In fact, in the Yunxiao Continent where the strong are respected, Su Yinian only needs to release a little bit of the pressure from the leader, and those who cause trouble for her will immediately give in and the trouble will be solved.
But she is no longer a cultivator, and she no longer has the aura of intimidation. In modern society, it is illegal to use force to coerce others at will.
What's more, the troublesome objects, Jiang Xiubai and Ji Mufeng, both have a good relationship with her.
what should I do?
Su Yinian walked aimlessly and unknowingly arrived at the door of the exclusive practice room of the "Blow Up Team".
The door of the practice room was wide open. Inside, Xie Wenyu was practicing dancing with several teammates, sweating profusely.
Jiang Xiubai half leaned on the piano beside him to take a rest, opened the 200ml can of soda in his hand, and drank it all in one gulp.
Jiang Xiubai caught a glimpse of a familiar figure outside the door, and raised his eyebrows slightly, with a faint smile appearing in his cold eyes.
He walked out the door, his pair of clear black eyes looked particularly gentle under the light, he stared at Su Yinian and asked, "Are you looking for someone?"
Su Yinian was a little embarrassed and answered honestly: "No, I was just passing by. I just went to the tutor's lounge."
After all, the Blow Up Team and the Stay Up Late Championship Team are currently in a hostile relationship. As the captain of the hostile team, she should have avoided suspicion. However, she was preoccupied with other things and did not notice where she went.
Jiang Xiubai nodded when he heard this, and didn't seem to care about Su Yinian's real purpose.
He looked down at the time on his silver watch, then looked up and suggested, "The restaurant is closed at this time. Should we go to the convenience store for a midnight snack?"
"Alright."
Su Yinian touched her empty belly. She was busy practicing dancing at night and hadn't eaten anything. She was really hungry now and needed instant noodles to comfort her protesting stomach.
In the convenience store, the three of them still sat in their usual seats. The dining table faced the floor-to-ceiling window, and the moonlight was beautiful tonight.
Thinking of asking Jiang Xiubai about his past with Ji Mufeng, Su Yinian did not call Li Zisu because it was not convenient for him to be present. Jiang Xiubai did not mention it either, so the two of them chatted about other topics tacitly.
Jiang Xiubai noticed that Su Yinian was absent-minded. He was always smart, and looking at Su Yinian's expression as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself many times and didn't know how to start the conversation, he guessed something in his heart.
Sighing slightly in his heart, Jiang Xiubai couldn't help laughing when he saw the rich expressions on Su Yinian's face, which was sometimes serious, sometimes hesitant, sometimes fearless, and sometimes cowardly.
Su Yinian has always loved eating. Once he sees something to eat, he will bury his head in the food without caring about anything else.
However, this time it was different. The noodle soup was cold and she didn't even take a bite. The struggle in her heart was visible to the naked eye. Jiang Xiubai felt a little sorry and waited for her to speak.
"How's Ji Mufeng's practice going?"
Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, Jiang Xiubai glanced at Su Yinian and sighed softly: "Ask whatever you want to ask. I have no secrets from you, so naturally there is nothing that cannot be discussed."
"Hmm... not very optimistic. Teacher Duan said that there were some problems with his condition..."
Seeing that Jiang Xiubai looked calm when he mentioned Ji Mufeng and took the initiative to ask about his practice, Su Yinian felt a little relieved.
Still with a hint of caution, Su Yinian looked at Jiang Xiubai with a hesitant tone. "Instructor Duan and I both think that in the entire base, you may be the one who knows his situation best..." Su Yinian's voice stopped abruptly.
Looking down, she saw Jiang Xiubai found a three-minute video from his own learning machine.
“This is a video of a band we played in a speakeasy.”
Jiang Xiubai curved his lips and smiled. The faint smile at the corner of his lips was like the first melting of ice and snow, as beautiful as a flash in the pan, but fleeting.
"When I was young, I was weak and would fall ill if I was blown by the wind. No one wanted to be my friend. When I was alone, I fell in love with rock music. I liked the freedom and wildness of rock music. It was also at that time that I developed a longing for the entertainment industry."
"After years of treatment, my health improved day by day as I grew older. At the age of 15, I was able to run around like other children, and I finally had the ability to pursue my dream."
"It's just that my father doesn't want me to get involved in rock music." Jiang Xiubai looked a little lonely when he mentioned his father.
"With my mother's last wish, my father did not force me to accept the future he had planned for me. However, he was very determined to forbid me from playing rock music. He hoped that I could learn classical music that was more in line with the tastes of the elite."
"After several arguments, we each took a step back." Jiang Xiubai's eyes dimmed as he said, "I went abroad to study bel canto as he wished and completed my studies. And he acquiesced to my request to sign a contract with an entertainment company and become a trainee in a boy band."
"Ji Mufeng is the first friend I have ever had the opportunity to confide in since I was a child."
Jiang Xiubai spoke frankly, as if recalling the past, and sighed softly.
"He is a person who is easily filled with kindness and has a surprisingly good temper. When we first met, everyone avoided me, except him, who took the initiative to ask the teacher to team up with me in class."
