Then, Lin Cheng left.

Several group members looked around the private room curiously, looking exactly like country bumpkins who had just entered the city. The luxurious sofa, the huge round table with a rotating glass turntable on it, the glass chandelier overhead, the wall covering, and the carpet were all expensive, and the various luxurious decorations in the private room all revealed something extraordinary.

There was shock on the faces of every mercenary, pointing at something carefully, wanting to touch it but not daring to—the look of cowards.

“This is probably glazed glass. It is said that glazed ornaments like this in the Imperial Capital are worth tens of thousands. Don’t tell me every private room here is decorated like this?”

“It seems so. I just saw that the people eating in other private rooms are either rich or noble.”

“Then we must be careful, otherwise we won’t even be able to afford the compensation.” ===== CHAPTER 1401 =====

“Everyone sit down, get ready to eat.”

Originally, everyone was still acting cautiously, but as soon as Bai Bai Susu spoke, the others immediately sat down obediently.

Not long after, the door of the No. 2 private room was knocked, and eight waiters entered from outside, with four carrying poles on their shoulders, carrying a four-layer giant burger about the size of the round table.

“This...”

Gong Gong Bailiu was dumbfounded, the others were also stunned, and Bai Bai Susu was also dumbfounded.

Are they supposed to eat this? Not to mention how it tastes, just the fact that eight waiters carried it in—this scene was too shocking. Excluding the thick bread on the top and bottom layers, the vegetables and meat patties in the middle were each as thick as an adult’s fist.

She finally understood what Lin Cheng’s weird smile was about.

You really don’t treat us like humans; even magical beasts couldn’t eat like this.

On the other side, Lin Cheng, who was eating with Li Li Jian, couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of Bai Bai Susu and the others seeing the giant burger.

“What’s wrong? Is my eating style funny?”

Li Li Jian blushed a little. Having always been pampered in the Imperial Palace, he, who was usually elegant, was actually showing such an ugly state here, but it really wasn’t his fault.

He never expected that just bread with vegetables and meat patties could be so delicious. The wonderful feeling of sweet and sour, the crispness of the vegetables, and the tender texture and juices of the meat patties—compared to the delicacies he ate in the Imperial Palace—all exploded in his mouth at once.

The wonderful taste of the flavors mixed together without conflicting with each other made him unable to stop.

He ate the burger ravenously like a starving person, and then drank a glass of the drink called lemonade.

Opening his mouth to burp, with the freedom of no constraints, Li Li Jian exclaimed that it was satisfying.

“No, Your Highness, I just thought of something funny,” Lin Cheng said solemnly.

“Hmm.”

Li Li Jian responded, not believing Lin Cheng’s words, but he didn’t care.

Who said it was him? He believed that anyone who ate this burger would definitely look the same as him.

“Your Highness, don’t just eat the burger; it’s easy to get full. Try other things—fries, chicken nuggets, fried chicken, and roasted meat.”

“Hmm, hmm, I won’t miss them.”

Li Li Jian devoured the various delicacies on the table. The preparation, according to Lin Cheng, was very simple, but the taste was many times better than delicacies.

It’s a pity; it’s rare to come out once, otherwise he would really want to eat these delicacies every day.

Outside the window, Jueqing, after resting, picked up the pipa again, ready to perform.

Ding!

A guzheng sound rang out heavily, as if opening everyone’s hearts. The restaurant was instantly silent, followed by the beautiful accompaniment, played leisurely by the band assisting Jueqing’s singing. The role of each instrument was endless, playing together, the rhythm light and elegant. Each light drum sound urged people to calm down and enjoy it slowly, until there was a unique flavor in their hearts.

“...Immortal song, jade flute spirit~ Wine cup, jade dew clear.”

A line of lyrics was sung by Jueqing, as if possessing invisible magic, leading people to start a wonderful and different life journey.

A stroke of thick ink leaves a poem of wild passion.

Jade robe, long sword, worthy of romance.

Mountains and rivers do not miss the old.

Writing poetry for madness, also without sorrow.

Called a banished immortal, hard to stay in the jade palace.

Going to the mortal world, fighting for wine in the red building.

Amorous eyes.

Dropping ink on the poetry scroll, how many buckets again.

Pouring the strongest wine in the world.

Lying in the towering high building of Chang’an.

Seeing the world, who can be as carefree as him.

The melodious singing, the splashing of ink, white clothes and long swords, mountains and rivers, immortal palaces. Every line of lyrics made everyone’s eyes shine, and the corresponding pictures seemed to be right before their eyes, making people think and feel emotional.

In the past, these dignitaries had not heard songstresses perform, but those songstresses had never shown the beauty of music so clearly, so dazzlingly.

Today, the performance of the songstress Jueqing simply opened their eyes. Unknowingly, the song ended, but in their ears, it was like the lingering sound, and the beautiful singing voice and music still echoed in their minds.

“Too wonderful.”

“Yes, I seem to have seen the legendary immortals, just like us mortals drinking and having fun.”

“There is such beautiful music in the mortal world, too moving.”

“One more!”

A mercenary simply felt it was beautiful and couldn’t help but shout out. ===== CHAPTER 1402 =====

Bang.

But it was such a simple action and shout that drew the angry glares of countless people around, and even his companion, the big brother, couldn’t help but give him a knock on the head, telling him to shut up!

The mercenary felt aggrieved, but he shrank his head back cowardly, praying that others would not trouble him.

With this, everyone’s heads turned back. Among them were some noble masters in the city, their eyes full of hope and longing for the songstress Jueqing to sing a few more songs.

Let them wander in the world of immortals again.

Since Jueqing stopped acting as a background board, the rules for her singing had completely changed.

In the past, she wouldn’t listen to guests’ requests for songs, and now it was the same. Singing all depended on her mood; she would sing as many as she wanted, and no one could do anything about it.

After learning this rule, those guests who liked to listen to Jueqing sing understood instantly and were very understanding. After all, this was not an ordinary songstress. The songstress Jueqing needed superb control over the zither, and at the same time, she needed a singing voice full of emotion, which was not an ordinary thing at all.

Without a singing voice full of emotion, she couldn’t bring them such focused wandering in the immortal world.

They spontaneously formed a fan group to support the songstress Jueqing. While enjoying the wandering, they also supported and understood the behavior of the songstress Jueqing, and by the way, protected the songstress Jueqing from being disturbed by ordinary hooligans. As for why there were no nobles who wanted to take the opportunity to dominate Jueqing, first, nobles generally did not lack women; what they lacked were these strange things that could make them enjoy themselves unusually.

Beautiful music could allow them to immerse themselves in the world of music while relaxing themselves completely.

For busy nobles, this was a rare leisure time.

Second, there was only one Jueqing. Fighting back and forth, everyone would not be convinced by each other. Rather than snatching from each other, it was better for everyone to enjoy it together. If there were more songstresses like the songstress Jueqing in the future, they wouldn’t mind marrying one home.

Finally, it was also because Jueqing was a person of the Flying Fox Restaurant, and behind the Flying Fox Restaurant was Lin Cheng! They couldn’t afford to offend him.

Lin Cheng’s potential was so great that he was a special talent of the Empire personally named and paid attention to by His Majesty the Emperor! Just based on Lin Cheng’s current achievements and the magic energy internal combustion engine project he was cooperating with His Highness the Prince, changing the foundation of the entire Empire was a light matter.

They couldn’t offend a young man with huge potential for the sake of a songstress.

Inside the No. 1 private room.

The song ended, but Li Li Jian was still immersed in the world of music. Lin Cheng waited quietly on the side, waiting for Li Li Jian to wake up slowly.

“Too wonderful.”

The first sentence after waking up was this.

It was the first time Li Li Jian had heard such beautiful songs. Traditionally, there was only vocal music, but after adding lyrics, it could be so beautiful, expressing the emotions in the vocal music so clearly. His eyes seemed to see a brand new world, seeing the deep meaning Jueqing wanted to express.

Clearly... his attainment in vocal music was only a little stronger than ordinary people, but he could perceive it so clearly.

It was simply too wonderful.

“I didn’t say it wrong, right? Jueqing is no longer what she used to be,” Lin Cheng said very proudly.

“Yes, I wasn’t interested in Jueqing before, but now I suddenly want to marry her and take her back to my palace to perform for me every day.” Li Li Jian said his inner thoughts directly, and there was no interest in his eyes, only a longing for vocal music.

They were all their own people in the private room, so he wasn’t afraid of anything.

“Uh.” Lin Cheng was speechless.

It was like agreeing to be single until old age, but you secretly got out of being single—too dog-like.

After hesitating, he still told the form of the girl group from his previous life.

“That’s a bit exaggerated. I think we can fully form a team, a female team specializing in performing vocal music, with Jueqing as the main one, and let the cutest beautiful girls participate. As for the number of people, four or five is enough.”

“Cultivate their talents in singing and dancing, and in a year or so, they should be good at singing and dancing.” There were too few entertainment projects in the other world.

It was no wonder that His Highness Li Li Jian, who was originally uninterested in Jueqing, suddenly became interested in Jueqing.

Just singing with vocal music and lyrics made His Highness feel extremely shocked and novel. What if he made those small games for entertainment from his previous life? Would it make this world more interesting?

Cards, mahjong, board games, basketball, badminton, tennis, etc.

Lin Cheng felt that he could open a ‘Heaven on Earth’ to play around.

However, this deviated somewhat from his main job. His main job was a blacksmith, not a businessman. He just needed to do the job of forging iron well.

Lin Cheng’s idea was readily agreed to by Li Li Jian. He had a vocal band around him specifically to please himself. As long as he replaced the members with women and then sent them to Jueqing for a period of training, wouldn’t that be enough?

Hehe, thinking about being able to hear beautiful vocal music every day, he couldn’t stop.

“This is a good idea! I’ll have my vocal band sent over. If Jueqing helps with the training, about how long will it take?”

Lin Cheng couldn’t be sure either. ===== CHAPTER 1403 =====
