Chapter 296

"You can't say that," Tan Jingyan's gaze swept over the crowd as if he could see Mu Youyu, who had already left the venue.

A Yu's talent on the piano surpasses her painting; only by following me can she better display her talent.

You!" Lin Tingsong pointed at him, "My disciples don't need your meddling!"

They argued back and forth, their words clean but each one stabbing at the heart.

Seeing this, the students gradually began to applaud.

Xiao Ting stood in the middle, his left hand just about to pull Lin Tingsong, his right hand not yet touching Tan Jingyan's sleeve, when Lin Tingsong turned and caught him red-handed.

And you, Xiao Ting?" Lin Tingsong turned and added him, "A perfectly good pianist and chairman, why are you joining the fray?"

Using Star Sink for A Yu is a favor to you; don't think that will make her favor you! If you want her to learn piano, you also have to see whether she's willing.

Xiao Ting was left looking helpless, only able to grin sheepishly and shut his mouth.

Mu Youyu couldn't help but curl the corner of her lip, turning to look at Jiang Liangjin beside her, "They're so childish."

Jiang Liangjin lowered his voice: "It's because my little treasure Youbao is amazing—she can do anything well, and her charm is too great."

Bai Yun couldn't bear to watch.

Mu Youyu smiled as she opened the comment section, unexpectedly finding it harmonious: "Hilarious, broadcast more—I love watching these big shots argue."

Wow, is Tan Jingyan about to take Miss Mu as his disciple? Double fans are ecstatic!

The adapted version of 'Lone Walk' must be tailor-made for Miss Mu, right?

Has anyone noticed that when Young Master Jiang is hosting, his gaze never leaves Miss Mu? The two together are a perfect match! Childhood sweethearts forever!

Jiang Liangjin saw the end, a flicker of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

Mu Youyu didn't show much emotional change; she flipped through other comments, all harmonious, with no negative words appearing.

The class bell rang.

Everyone sat down and class began.

Song Yan didn't go to his own home but went to Lu Yuchu's place.

Lu Yuchu was sitting at the long table eating breakfast when he saw Song Yan suddenly appear, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.

"Brother, why are you eating breakfast so late?" Song Yan naturally changed his shoes and casually walked over to sit at the table.

Fortunately, he didn't go to the company.

Lu Yuchu wiped his mouth, "Mm, I pulled an all-nighter yesterday."

He pushed the cup of hot soy milk across to him, "How did you come here?"

Song Yan glanced under the table, not daring to meet Lu Yuchu's eyes, only taking the cup, "I have something to say."

"Is it another project lacking resources, or do you want to change the production team?" Lu Yuchu thought he was about to ask him to do something again.

"No, it's not that." Song Yan hastily waved his hand, the soy milk shaking and nearly spilling.

After steadying himself, he took a deep breath, as if making a great decision: "Brother, from now on…… don't be so hostile toward Jiang Liangjin; he hasn't provoked you on his own."

As soon as the words left his mouth, he felt his cheeks heat up, as if he had surrendered first.

Lu Yuchu nearly spat out his soy milk, "What did you say? No way."

How did even the younger brother turn against me?

It seems that from now on, his and Song Yan's views will differ.

"How could you reject me?!" Song Yan's voice instantly filled with grievance, impossible to hide.

Song Yan has always been strong-willed.

He initially thought whether Lu Yuchu accepted or refused was his own business, but hearing the refusal himself was still unbelievable.

After all, from childhood he had never lowered his head before anyone except occasionally showing weakness in front of Mu Youyu.

At this moment, such blatant disappointment made Lu Yuchu's heart pause slightly.

Lu Yuchu ultimately still didn't agree.

The younger brother is important, but he can't compare to the younger sister.

Jiang Liangjin's words, he wants to continue observing himself.

Seeing that Lu Yuchu didn't agree, Song Yan just took a sullen sip of soy milk and said, "Fine then, I won't make things difficult for you."

Forget it, he's already said his piece; whether he agrees is no longer his concern.

Lu Yuchu, seeing his demeanor, pulled out a black card from his pocket and handed it over, changing the subject: "Have you taken on any new roles lately? If you need funds, use this card."

Song Yan glanced at the black card, shook his head, and pushed it back: "There's a film in discussion; I don't need your card."

Lu Yuchu didn't insist, took back the black card, and asked again: "What are you going to do next? Want to come sit at my company?"

"No," Song Yan shook his head, rose and walked toward the stairs, "I'll catch some sleep; you eat your fill and come."

After tossing all night, he really was a bit tired; now he just wants to sleep soundly, temporarily tossing those chaotic thoughts to the back of his mind.

"Mm." Not at all as cute as the younger sister.

Song Yan had just reached the stairwell when he saw Song Yusui leaning against the railing of the spiral staircase, hands in pockets, hair somewhat messy, obviously just woke up not long ago.

The other person waved at him with a listless tone: "Yo, you've been successfully wooed by A Jin."

Song Yan had been holding in his anger; seeing him like that, he almost couldn't help but blurt out: "... What are you doing here?"

Song Yusui waved his hand: "This is my home; where else would I be?"

"Oh." Song Yan couldn't be bothered with him, heading upstairs without looking back, his steps full of sullen energy.

Song Yusui watched his back and muttered: "What little temper are you throwing now?"

After saying that, he went downstairs and sat opposite Lu Yuchu, picking up a slice of toast from the table and taking a casual bite: "Yuchu, still eating?"

Lu Yuchu didn't even lift his head, lightly uttering three words: "No eyes?"

"……"

Song Yusui found himself boring.

What's wrong with this person?

Lu Yuchu saw his brother fall silent, then remembered the matter he had someone investigate yesterday, picked up his phone, and opened the message sent by the Special Assistant.

Yesterday's message about Song Yan beating someone has already been suppressed and hasn't spread outside the school.

The Special Assistant had sent a message last night, first giving a simple introduction of personal information.

They are all second-year students at Lan Lin High School; their family background is considered ordinary compared to others in the school, yet they are arrogant and always try to cling to the school's influential figures.

This time it was purely out of jealousy toward Mu Youyu's family background and favored status, and also wanting to curry favor with the Luo- and Bai-surnamed girls at school, that they came up with the idea of damaging the piano.

They were not acting on anyone's orders.

The Special Assistant asked at the end of the message: 【Chairman, how should those four be handled?】

Lu Yuchu's fingertip paused on the screen for a moment, recalling the earlier conversation.

Didn't Song Yan tell him not to hold hostility toward someone?

Then he would comply with his wish, and also find something for that person to do.

He opened the chat box with Jiang Liangjin, only sending the backend surveillance footage over, with the caption: 【You, handle it】

Lu Yuchu did not send the personal information he had found.

Wasn't it said that one couldn't look at Jiang Liangjin with another eye?

Then he would be completely confident that this person could handle it well.
