Chapter 29 - 29 028 Kiss

Chapter 29: 028: Kiss! Chapter 29: 028: Kiss! Half an hour ago—

Jiahui was a few minutes late because she was looking for parking. As the group headed to the reserved private room, Jiahui looked around but didn’t see Wen Changling.

She asked a colleague, “Where’s Changling?”

“Don’t know.”

Jiahui was a bit annoyed.

Wen Changling had a poor sense of direction, and the corridors of this private room were like a labyrinth. She might have taken a wrong turn and failed to keep up. These people lacked any sense of camaraderie; they didn’t even notice someone was missing.

Jiahui went to look for her herself.

About a dozen people came to this dinner, all staff from the oncology surgery department, except for Qiao Yi.

Before being transferred to the VIP building, Qiao Yi was also part of the oncology surgery team. Since the organizer of the dinner got along well with Qiao Yi, she was invited too. The room was booked in advance and was quite secluded.

The place underfoot was called Ninety-three City, a well-known entertainment and money-burning hotspot in the capital.

At the very front of the hallway, there was an intersection. Before catching sight of anyone, voices were heard.

“Fourth Brother.”

It was a young man, wheedling unabashedly.

“I’m begging you.”

When nobody paid attention to him, he continued to pester, “Come on, help me get on stage one more time. I’ve been around for so long, and the total number of my fans doesn’t even come close to the crowd you draw with one turn at the DJ booth. Look, look—someone has even created a super topic for you, and I still don’t have one.”

The tone was both envious and jealous.

“Fourth Brother, please, will you? If you accompany me on the music, I could sing and surely attract more fans.”

The only one who had the audacity to shamelessly pester Xie Shang like this was Gu Yihuan, whose skin was thick enough to be used as drum leather.

“You haven’t given up singing?” He Dongzhou spoke with a voice dripping with sarcasm.

Gu Yihuan declared with his flawed teenage reasoning, “It’s my dream.”

“That’s a delusory pipe dream.”

Among their group of close friends, He Dongzhou was the least harmful on the outside, with dimples and a love of laughter, witty and sociable, able to talk to people or ghosts alike.

But Gu Yihuan knew He Dongzhou was a smiling tiger on the outside and dark of heart on the inside, the best at playing dirty tricks.

“You can mock me, but I won’t let you disparage my dream.”

Unapologetically, He Dongzhou mocked, “If you keep singing, the bar will go bankrupt.”

“Old Dog He,
