Chapter 70: Want to get a room and sleep together, beautiful lady?

Jiang Cheng was dazed, but the alcohol had mostly worn off! Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? Who is this young lady?

"Who are you? You're sitting on my lap?" Jiang Cheng shoved Zhang Anqi aside.

"Ah!"

Zhang Anqi let out a startled cry, almost falling onto the car floor, and she sat on the nearby sofa with a hint of resentment in her gaze.

"Mr. Jiang, I'm Zhang Anqi."

"When you need someone you call them 'Yujie', but when you don't you ask who they are! 'Who is Zhang Anqi?' Jiang Cheng asked, bewildered."

But his mind started working again.

He looked at this face, somewhat familiar, and gradually recalled: wasn't this the star who took a song he had sold and sang it herself? Zhang Anqi bit her lip, recalling Jiang Cheng's earlier demand; she didn't answer the parents' question, but instead crossed her legs and pressed the foot she had just kicked off her high heel onto Jiang Cheng's sofa.

Then she spoke softly: "I'm Zhang Anqi; I came today to see Mr. Jiang because I want a song."

"No songs, not a single one!" Jiang Cheng leaned against the sofa, rubbing his temples as he spoke.

"What's going on? How did I end up here just by opening my eyes?" Zhang Anqi, unwilling to give up, said in a gentle tone: "Mr. Jiang, just agree, just one song—can you give me 'Legend' then?"

After she said that, she saw Jiang Cheng lowering his head to rub his temples.

She then continued softly: "Mr. Jiang, I'm willing to pay for it, or if you have any demands, Mr. Jiang, just say them—I'll do my best to satisfy you!"

Anyway, pleasing Kangwei is also pleasing, but it'd be better to please Mr. Jiang—he's quite handsome! Yet after he said that, Jiang Cheng remained silent.

After a while.

Jiang Cheng lifted his head to look out the window; at that moment the business car was driving on the road, and even at 10 p. m. the traffic wasn't too light.

Jiang Cheng said: "Take me back to where I just came from."

"Mr. Jiang, won't you consider it again?" Zhang Anqi said.

Although Jiang Cheng still felt a bit dizzy at this moment, the effects of the alcohol had already worn off.

He turned his head to look at Zhang Anqi; her face was passable, though she wore too much makeup, and while her figure was good, she paled in comparison to Yujie.

Mainly, this woman had already ruined one of his songs, but that song "Legend" was originally meant for Ye Qing to sing; if Ye Qing sang it, he would have a song to listen to, yet this woman still wanted to take it! So Jiang Cheng felt no fondness for Zhang Anqi at all, and seeing her alluring expression only made him feel more disgusted—he had long heard the stories of that circle, and today he got a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg.

"Where did you bring me from? Where are you taking me?" Jiang Cheng paused, realizing the logic was off, and added: "Pull the car over to the side, let me get out."

"Mr. Jiang, can't we discuss it?" Zhang Anqi grew anxious, looking at Jiang Cheng's cold expression, feeling desperate and unsure what to do.

The foot resting on the sofa kept rubbing upward, as if she wished she could just die in Jiang Cheng's mouth if that would help.

Jiang Cheng shoved her leg away, saying: "Stop or not? If you don't stop, I'll call the police!"

Zhang Anqi froze.

"No, are guys these days all like this to protect themselves? Really! Even being together, I'm not willing to accept it!"

"Fifty-five!"

"I'll pay five hundred thousand for the copyright to 'Legend'!"

Jiang Cheng only said two words: "Stop the car."

"Eight hundred thousand!"

"Stop the car!"

The figure of eight hundred thousand made Jiang Cheng's eyelid twitch; his total savings didn't even come close to that amount.

Although if he had the idea to earn that money, it wouldn't be difficult.

But that number is still tempting now; however, he still refused—out of pride!

In the end, Jiang Cheng declined all of Zhang Anqi's kindness, got out of the car by the roadside, and then I took a taxi to school.

While taking the taxi, Jiang Cheng felt time was running out—the dormitory was about to close! Yet he still held a sliver of hope, wishing it were nighttime so that if traffic were light and the driver drove fast, he might make it before the doors shut! …

Zhang Anqi's side was furious! She was about to be embraced, and her foot was also brought out.

But Mr. Jiang actually ran away! Does that mean I have no allure at all?

I'm a big star!

She felt she had lost face completely this time, and his little assistant was sitting in the front passenger seat watching, leaving her embarrassed beyond words!

But that's not the point; the point is that Mr. Jiang refuses to sell her the copyright, and even refuses to write her a song!

"What's so great about Ye Qing? No fame, no works!"

"She doesn't even qualify as a star!"

"It's just that she looks a bit better—I'm not inferior either!"

"But without the backing of a star, just looking good—can that be stimulating?!"

Zhang Anqi sat in the back, slumping onto the sofa, complaining that the little assistant seated in the front passenger seat was pressing his lips together, afraid to speak.

She felt she understood this kind of transaction— the less, the better! Moreover, since the deal hadn't been settled, Zhang Anqi had been scorned by Mr. Jiang! From a woman's perspective, the assistant thought Mr. Jiang was a particularly charming man! From the perspective of Zhang Anqi's assistant, she wanted to say: "Anqi Sis, Ye Qing really is prettier than you."

……

Jiang Cheng got into a taxi and returned to school.

Before the car even reached the school, Jiang Cheng checked the time and realized it was already too late; once he got out, the dorm would surely be locked.

But the school was right ahead; Jiang Cheng hadn't decided where to go, so he didn't stop the driver.

When the car arrived at the school gate, Jiang Cheng saw a familiar figure.

Chu Siqi was alone, crouching in the flowerbed beside the school's main gate.

Around her, a few boys who had just come out of the school passed by, glancing at the taxi from afar, hesitating whether to go over and say hello.

At that moment, Chu Siqi looked a little pitiful.

Jiang Cheng walked over, and just then a boy also stepped forward, arriving in front of Chu Siqi.

"Beautiful lady, are you waiting for someone here?"

"Can I add you on WeChat?"

Chu Siqi glanced at the boy who had greeted her, then turned her face away without saying a word.

Jiang Cheng's roommates, Chen Qian, and the others all said they wouldn't go back to school tonight, but Chu Siqi wanted to return.

But she came back alone, and when she reached the school gate, she thought of another problem: she had gone out with Chen Qian, and if she returned alone, her roommates would surely ask where Chen Qian had gone.

At that point she couldn't explain it; if she said Chen Qian had gone to get a room with a guy, she worried it would damage Chen Qian's reputation.

So she squatted at the school gate, hesitating, and this hesitation caused her to miss the dormitory's closing time.

She thought that tonight she would have to get a room by herself, but the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt; normally, she had never spent a night away from home!

She was in a bad mood and didn't want to deal with anyone. Jiang Cheng walked over and patted the shoulder of the guy who was hitting on her: "Move aside, let me handle this."

Jiang Cheng said: "Beautiful lady, want to go get a room together and sleep?"
