Chapter 1199: 1285: Destined Affection

Chapter 1199: Chapter 1285: Destined AffectionSu Xuan was actually a bit surprised; he really didn’t expect Tang Zixuan would take the initiative to ask to partner with him.

“So, how do you want to collaborate?”

Su Xuan asked curiously, wondering why he would refuse to perform on the same stage with such a beautiful woman.

“Just like before, you play the piano, and I’ll sing.”

Tang Zixuan looked at Su Xuan and said earnestly, while Su Xuan thought to himself why she mentioned “just like before,” thinking this felt a bit off.

“Alright then! But I don’t know many pieces, there are some I can’t play!” Su Xuan said with an awkward smile, while Tang Zixuan softly bit her lip, seeming like she wanted to say something but held back.

“This piece you definitely know.”

Tang Zixuan looked at Su Xuan and said seriously, and Su Xuan, curious, asked.

“What piece?”

Su Xuan wasn’t trained in this field; he only knew a few pieces. How did this big star seem to know him so well?

“Love’s Fate!”

Tang Zixuan said seriously, while Su Xuan looked at her in astonishment, wanting to ask who the hell are you, and how do you know this piece.

Actually, “Love’s Fate” isn’t a formal piece; it was a song Su Xuan specifically wrote for a girl when he was in high school, a secret crush you could say.

Many years later, Su Xuan remembered the girl’s name seemed to be Chen Huan. Back then, he wasn’t very savvy about love in those young days, and he, too, had a girl he cherished. Chen Huan was the artistic type, very fond of music. Su Xuan learned a bit of piano because of Chen Huan.

He wrote the lyrics and composed “Love’s Fate” himself, mainly to express his admiration for Chen Huan. Su Xuan still remembers one line from the lyrics: I’m willing to paint your beauty for a lifetime, to know the landscapes in your heart…

Su Xuan remembers it was quite sentimental. At the graduation party, Su Xuan performed and sang this piece himself to confess to Chen Huan, but he recalls the outcome wasn’t as hoped; Chen Huan only said one thing.

“I only see you as a classmate and nothing more!”

Su Xuan’s secret crush was shattered. Over the years, he hadn’t seriously thought about it. Later, he learned that Chen Huan actually had someone she liked, a rich kid named Liu Chao from their class, while Su Xuan wasn’t wealthy during his high school days.

All these years later, Su Xuan couldn’t believe that Tang Zixuan would bring up “Love’s Fate.” He nearly jumped up, thinking, who the hell is she?

“Is it ‘Two Loves’ Fate’?”

Su Xuan pondered and asked softly, wondering if he was overthinking it.

“No, just ‘Love’s Fate’!” Tang Zixuan said firmly.

“Uh…” Su Xuan rubbed his nose, intensely curious, and said.

“Alright then.”

Now wasn’t the time to dwell on this matter. Su Xuan thought he’d ask her how she knew about “Love’s Fate” later.

Arriving at the piano, Su Xuan began to play the piece he had once written. The music flowed, full of romance and youthful nostalgia.

Tang Zixuan started singing, and the audience initially found it strange because they had never heard the song. But gradually, they were captivated by the beautiful music, feeling as if they were in a lovely environment filled with breathtaking scenery, beautiful years brought to life by love!

Tang Zixuan’s soft singing voice and Su Xuan’s piano playing seemed to blend into one, creating an intoxicating feeling that left the audience deeply enchanted.

Finally, after the song ended, Su Xuan rested his hands on the piano keys, his emotions somewhat stirred, as the memories of his high school years vividly resurfaced, turning many recollections into cherished memories.

By this point, the day’s winner and loser were quite apparent. Chanting Company deserved its longstanding reputation; the musical blend felt seamless, so well-coordinated that others had to admit defeat willingly.

“Su Xuan, congratulations, I am willing to cooperate with your company!”

Tang Zixuan looked at Su Xuan and said gently.

“Thank you!” Su Xuan still felt something was off. Just as he was about to ask if she was his classmate, Shui Lingling excitedly rushed over, hugged Su Xuan, and said.

“We won, that’s great, Su Xuan, we won, we finally won!” Shui Lingling was so excited; her movements were a bit intimate, hugging Su Xuan’s neck like a girlfriend playfully with her boyfriend.

“Little girl, can I possibly lose when I step in personally? By the way, how’s your stomach feeling? Let me take you to the hospital first!”

Su Xuan said with concern, not noticing the complex expression on Tang Zixuan’s face for that brief moment.

“Hmm, it does hurt a bit, oh wait, you hold on for a moment!”

Shui Lingling excitedly took out a notebook and approached Tang Zixuan, saying.

“Sister Zixuan, can you sign for me? I’m a fan.”

Tang Zixuan looked at Shui Lingling, took out a pen, and signed her name on the notebook, saying.

“President Shui, is Mr. Su yours?”

Tang Zixuan asked softly, feeling a bit inappropriate right after asking, and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Shui Lingling originally wanted to say he was her employee but, seeing Wang Ruojun nearby, thought to nip this in the bud and said.

“He’s my fiancé!”

Hearing these words, a subtle hint of disappointment appeared on Tang Zixuan’s face, but it was difficult to notice under the dim lighting.

“Alright, let’s go, you cheeky girl, the hospital is about to close. I’ll come over tomorrow to discuss our collaboration, big star!” Su Xuan finished speaking and led Shui Lingling away, his silhouette fading but staying in Tang Zixuan’s view as she sighed softly, seemingly talking to herself or maybe singing.

“The moon chases the sun, in the end, there is still no resolution.”

The Audio-Visual Party almost officially ended then, Wang Ruojun was so angry he could kill someone, to be honest, the fact that he lost was the hardest pill for him to swallow, especially losing so thoroughly, what he dreamt of so beautifully turned out to be just wishful thinking.

Wang Ruojun more or less could see that Shui Lingling’s heart was no longer with him. Before Su Xuan came along, Wang Ruojun could feel that Shui Lingling hadn’t let him go. This hypocrite felt very accomplished, thinking he would not only take down their company but also have her willingly.

But he didn’t expect Su Xuan’s appearance to completely change the situation.

Due to the performance at the Audio-Visual Party, Chanting Company underwent a massive change overnight, with many suppliers already starting to place orders in advance. They knew once the company under Tang Zixuan signed a contract with Chanting Company, then Chanting’s orders would be everywhere like snowflakes.
