Chapter 92: How did you end up mooching meals and drinks?

After busying about for roughly half an hour, a song recording was completed.

What was recorded was a track provided by Yongwang Recording Studio; according to Lao Chen, it was personally written by Chen Yongwang himself.

Although Chen Yongwang is quite a well-known composer, he has the track record of three songs that made it onto the hot chart.

But he also has some skill in writing lyrics, often writing lyrics for some minor singers.

So Lao Chen felt confident; seeing Ye Qing come out, someone stood up and asked with a smiling squint: "Beautiful lady, how do you feel? Does singing this song make you feel really into it?"

Ye Qing's expression was a little unnatural; he felt as if he had just eaten a fly and felt awful, but faced with the recording studio boss's enthusiasm, Ye Qing couldn't say anything and forced a smile, saying: "It's okay."

Lao Chen simply thought Ye Qing was an inexperienced newcomer, just shy, and chuckled, gesturing to his seat and saying: "Come, beautiful lady, sit here and listen yourself to see if you're satisfied."

"I dare to issue an invoice; you will definitely be satisfied and like it a lot."

The mixing engineer sat nearby, his eyes scanning Ye Qing.

He had seen many female college students come here to record songs, and many of them were decent-looking, but compared to the woman before him, it was simply heaven and earth.

He looked at Ye Qing's face, which had a youthful vibe with a hint of maturity, making his heart go all soft and tingly.

"Damn, that college student got a bargain!" the mixing engineer thought, glancing at Jiang Cheng sitting on the sofa outside.

Ye Qing sat down beside him, and the mixing engineer immediately caught a faint, fresh fragrance.

That was the scent from the beautiful lady before him; the mixing engineer felt as if he had fallen in love.

Ye Qing put on the monitoring headphones, then turned his gaze toward the mixing engineer beside him.

Being stared at by Ye Qing like that, the mixing engineer froze, not knowing where to put his hands.

After a few seconds, Ye Qing reminded: "Won't you play it for me to listen?"

Only then did the mixing engineer react: "Oh oh... sorry, just a moment, right away!"

Lao Chen stood nearby, thinking to himself that this kid was really useless, but his gaze again fell on Ye Qing, and his heart immediately started to flutter; he thought, "If she were my girlfriend, I'd work one day and then rest three days at home without going out!"

After the mixing engineer finished adjusting, he hit the play button; the song's accompaniment temporarily used a monotonous beat.

After listening to a couple of lines, Ye Qing couldn't help but furrow his brow.

This could barely be called a song; it's hard to say whether it's good or bad, but it definitely lacks the stunning impact that Legend brings!

After listening to another couple of lines, Ye Qing took off the headphones, turned his head, and said: "How about... how about I just sing the song I brought myself instead?"

The smile on Lao Chen's face froze for a moment, and he asked: "Is this song not good? If you don't like this song, we can switch to another."

Ye Qing is not good at dealing with people; otherwise he wouldn't have been bullied at his previous Qingman Company to the point of not being able to lift his head. He bit his lip and said: "I"

She hadn't finished speaking when, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jiang Cheng walking over.

Ye Qing immediately stood up, came out from behind the chair, and stood behind Jiang Cheng.

Her demeanor appeared very obedient; from her behavior one could tell she seemed to have a certain awe for Jiang Cheng.

Seeing Ye Qing in that state, the mixing engineer and Lao Chen felt an unconscious twinge of heartache.

This beautiful woman's behavior seemed to show she was very afraid of the young man before them; they could only think of one reason for this situation.

Usually this young beast, he abuses the goddess?! Many pretty women, when young and looking for a boyfriend, if they run into a scumbag, end up being abused.

They felt heartbroken to death! Jiang Cheng glanced at the mixing engineer and Lao Chen and asked: "How's it going?"

Ye Qing was the first to speak softly: "I still want to sing Legend." Jiang Cheng said: "Then go ahead and sing it."

Lao Chen was puzzled: "What Legend? I don't have any Legend here."

Ye Qing said: "It's the song we brought with us."

Lao Chen stared for a moment: "Not that I said, beautiful lady, why do you insist on singing that song? Aren't my songs good enough? I haven't even charged you extra."

Ye Qing didn't know what to say, lowered his head and stood behind Jiang Cheng without speaking.

Jiang Cheng turned his head to look at Ye Qing: "Wasn't what we just recorded Legend?"

But Ye Qing gave Jiang Cheng a deep look, then shook his head and quickly lowered his head again.

Jiang Cheng showed a helpless expression; he hadn't said anything before, still thinking Ye Qing could handle it, after all it's just a matter of directly refusing, and we originally came to record Legend.

But seeing Ye Qing's appearance, it was obvious his ability to refuse others was nearly zero.

No wonder he got bullied at his previous company.

Jiang Cheng took another look, and Lao Chen said: "Then let's re-record the song we brought over."

Lao Chen tilted his head, took a breath, stared at Jiang Cheng, and after a while said: "Just tell me what's wrong with my songs here; although I said if you're not satisfied with my songs here, I won't charge you the recording fee."

"But you can't pretend to be clear while acting confused; you say what good song could the one you brought possibly be?"

Jiang Cheng's purpose in coming was to record a song; of course he wouldn't argue with him about whose song is better or worse.

He casually said: "It doesn't matter; keep recording, I'll pay regardless of good or bad."

Lao Chen was angered; people said they'd pay, so he had no reason not to record, and moreover the song just recorded was his own arbitrary decision.

But being denied like this, especially by someone who looks like an ordinary college student, made him feel really unhappy.

It's just that you, kid, don't know what kind of shit luck you walked into, snagging such a good-looking girlfriend and even letting her wear you!

Lao Chen's complexion turned not so good; rather than holding some coldness, he said: "Fine, then I'll record it for you; when the time comes you listen yourself, if my chosen song still can't compare to the one you brought, I'll go eat shit."

"No, how did you end up cheating on food and drink?" Jiang Cheng also didn't expect Lao Chen to say such a thing, feeling amused as he looked at Lao Chen.

The idiot's beard all bristled: "Good, you kid, wait for yourself to listen!"

"Come, let's re-record." Lao Chen turned his head and said to the mixing engineer.

Then Ye Qing walked back into the recording studio.

The Legend that had just been casually tossed aside, Lao Chen picked it up, made a copy, and handed it to Ye Qing.

Then the mixing engineer first quickly made a simple beat on the computer.

While making the beat, the mixing engineer's psychology began to tighten further.

Although he hadn't seen the final product, he hummed along to the beat, and this melody also made him feel uneasy.

Beside him, Lao Chen, who was looking at the lyrics seriously for the first time, had already been completely captivated by the lyrics.

The hand holding the lyric sheet trembled, imperceptibly.
