She glared at Chen Fan secretly, then withdrew her small hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Miaomiao finished singing two songs on stage, and applause erupted in the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The following time became a karaoke session for customers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If any customer wanted to showcase their singing, they could go on stage now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The band improvised a short piece, and finally, a male customer stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Screams erupted in the bar. The man went on stage and picked up the microphone. His first note came out like a howl, almost causing several people to spit out their drinks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This voice was simply like the wailing of ghosts and wolves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughter immediately burst out in the hall, but the man on stage seemed quite immersed, insisting on finishing the entire song before coming down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan let out a long sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally, it's over.

It's just a hobby for me, can't compare with professionals like you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe, I don't believe it. Brother Chen must be being modest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai continued to encourage, \"Brother Fan, sing one. Maybe if you sing well, everyone will get excited, and tonight's alcohol sales might go up a bit more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, \"Are you deliberately trying to make me look foolish?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Shuai looked at Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister-in-law, tell Brother Fan to go up and sing. He'll definitely listen to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu didn't say anything, but in her mind, she recalled the big chorus in the isolation building and the song Chen Fan sang at the school anniversary party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Su Ruochu had a vague guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was that online singer Commoner. Others might not know, but she was too familiar with Chen Fan's voice, she could recognize it immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miaomiao also joined in the persuasion, \"I haven't heard Brother Chen sing yet, sing one, please.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was at a loss, he turned to look at Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want to hear it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu nodded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's up to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan smiled, flexed his wrists a bit, stood up and walked towards the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing another person going on stage, many people smiled, ready to see a joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, after Chen Fan went on stage, he picked up the guitar that was placed aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, some people's eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, he's going to play the guitar too. Could this guy who went on stage really know how to sing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, what song are you going to sing?\" The band behind asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me think for a moment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan sat on the high stool holding the guitar, lowered his head and strummed a few times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miaomiao smiled and introduced softly to Guo Shuai and Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Chen's guitar skills should be at a beginner level.
