Chapter 388: Chapter 388: 241: At the same time! They received an invitation to the New Year's Eve party, regarding the choice of songs..._3

“But… for a mid-engine rear-wheel-drive car to start smoothly, you need to control the left foot’s pressure at the clutch’s biting point. That way, you can get better traction,”

“Holy shit, holy shit,” Gan Wenchang clutched the handle tightly, his face showing panic, “Bro, I’ve never offended you in the past, can you let me out of the car, please?”

“Too late!” Xu Qingyan shouted, “Here goes nothing!”

With a hum, he started the car normally.

Gan Wenchang jumped, only to find it was a false alarm.

“Damn it!”

“Steamed bun? Not convinced?” Xu Qingyan was just teasing him, if he really wrecked the little van, he wouldn’t even know how to explain it to the props department.

Xu Qingyan was used to driving Boss Pei’s A8 and had also driven Lin Wanzhou’s Panamera. Honestly, his car handling skills had become quite good, but driving the little van was still an eye-opener.

“The little van has a ridiculously good field of view; it’s like it’s got a cheat on.”

Gan Wenchang next to him slowly relaxed and, smiling broadly, he crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows.

“Right? Once you’ve driven a van for a while and then get behind the wheel of a sports car, it’s like you’re blind. It feels like you’re flying close to the ground,” he said.

“The sports car I’ve snagged is just for cruising in the A8, that’s it,” Xu Qingyan added.

“Ahem!!” Gan Wenchang’s eyes bulged and he turned to berate him, “Man, I was just saying, but you actually have nice cars!”

“It’s not mine, the little diva lent it to me,” he replied.

Gan Wenchang was even more exasperated, “You motherfucker, living off a woman, I spit! Shameless to the core!”

“Alright, alright, you win, I’ll return the car when I get back,” Xu Qingyan said leisurely as he drove, a slight smile on his lips, “I won’t drive the A8 anymore, happy now?”

“That’s more like it. You’re so out of touch with the common folk, is that proper? I can’t even pull off driving an A8, and here you are, showing off,” said the rich second generation righteously.

Xu Qingyan seemed to reveal carelessly, “I need a car to get around in Xinghai, so I’ll just borrow a Panamera from another little diva.”

“Son of a bitch! You really deserve to die!” Gan Wenchang couldn’t take it anymore, “Why do you get everything, damn it, you’re really asking for it, Xu Qingyan!”

Just then, there was a red light ahead, so he firmly pressed the brake.

Then, he looked at Gan Wenchang leisurely, his eyes half-lidded. With an incredibly arrogant tone, in the quiet car, he drifted out a sentence.

“I’m a virgin.”

“Fuck your father, damn it, you…,” Gan Wenchang suddenly went quiet, his face a mix of bitterness and appeal, “So what if you’re a virgin, what’s so great about that?”

“Makes me more special, doesn’t it?”

“What the hell, grabbing this youthless dog,” Gan Wenchang broke down a bit, cursing, “I’m twenty-seven, it would be strange if I was still a virgin.”

Xu Qingyan looked indifferent, listening to Gan Wenchang’s ranting and raving as he smoothly started up the little van.

Suddenly, he asked another question.

“I’m just curious, no offense, but with that face of yours, how did you resist the urge to throw yourself at someone from high school until university?”

God damn saving oneself for marriage!

“You’re being narrow-minded, can’t I be a studious and well-behaved student?” Xu Qingyan said, frustrated, “What’s the point of dating? For what?”

“For…” Gan Wenchang’s words got caught in his throat and he swallowed them back.@@novelbin@@

“Oh~ I’m not interested, brother. I’m devoted to reading the sages’ books, oblivious to the world outside.” Xu Qingyan said dismissively, continuing to drive forward.

“Seriously? I knew from the second day I met you that you were no good,” Gan Wenchang added fuel to the fire.

After lunch.

Gan Wenchang looked at the box of packed food, somewhat curious.

“Who’s that for?”

“Group Leader He, it seemed like he didn’t have time for lunch,” Xu Qingyan replied without batting an eye, “I asked around for his preference before leaving, I’ll check if he’s eaten when I get back.”

“Oh, then you really should bring him something to eat. Was it Group Leader He who recommended you to join, right?”

“Yes, Group Leader He is a good man,” Xu Qingyan said, “I’ve heard that he used to….”

“Yeah, good people indeed, but it doesn’t mean they will always get what they deserve these days,” Gan Wenchang spoke cryptically and then went silent, turning his head to look out the window.

After a while, unable to contain himself any longer, he said.

“Turn off that damn air conditioning, my balls are about to shrink up inside me.”

…..

At the beginning of December.

Wen Yun received an invitation from the Beijing station to attend the new year’s eve show. However, the other party hoped that Lin Wanzhou would sing a more motivational song.

“Yes, preferably a song that fits the new year’s vibe,” a member of the directorial staff said, “We have already launched the project here, please let us know if you can make it.”

“Alright, thank you,” Wen Yun hung up the phone, keeping calm amidst the storm within.

Despite having seen her fair share of grand stages over the years, since she left Yun Yi with Lin Wanzhou to start afresh, this was the first time they had the opportunity to perform on such a major stage.

Even though she had built up quite a network over the years, Lin Wanzhou’s lack of experience was evident. No matter how hard they worked on commercial performances, releasing songs, and striving for exposure in various activities.

In the end, they couldn’t hide the fact that they had a blank history. She only had a few songs that she could use.

The entertainment industry is much like the stock market: the actual value of a singer is secondary. Capital goes up and down, and only those who have a recognized commercial value are considered valuable.

This value is reflected in exposure, fan activity, and fan spending power. As for singers’ endorsements… this is the weak point for most.

All things considered, Lin Wanzhou’s situation was rather awkward.

After all, she couldn’t be called a queen of the music scene; before breaching her contract, she was just beginning to be called a “little diva.” This recognition came from her past achievements and her competitor… Pei Muchan.
