Free Web NovelChapter 1718: Chapter 1804: Reduced to an Uncle
Su Xuan shrugged and by this time, he had already entered the hall. After giving the invitation to the staff, he entered a large private room.
This room was very large, able to accommodate at least three hundred people. Inside, there was a long aisle, much like those red carpet paths, and on both sides of this room were neatly arranged high-class tables. When Su Xuan and Bu Daming came in, there were already quite a few people there, with a few handsome guys and pretty girls singing on the stage.
Su Xuan scanned the place with a glance and didn’t see anyone particularly old; he figured he and Bu Daming were probably the oldest there, since the mayor’s daughter, Sun Qianxun, was only twenty years old.
"Old Bu, why do I feel like seeing these people makes me feel old!"
Su Xuan scratched his nose, feeling a bit awkward. All along, he had considered himself quite young, but time waits for no one; suddenly he was already at the uncle level.
"There should be some older folks who haven’t arrived yet!"
Bu Daming also felt a bit awkward. When they both came in, a few people glanced at them; basically, nobody there knew Su Xuan and Bu Daming.
Su Xuan and Bu Daming sat down at a table. To ease the awkwardness, Su Xuan poured himself a drink and started sipping.
"Who is Sun Qianxun?"
Su Xuan had a strong purpose for today: to hopefully use Sun Qianxun to establish a connection with her father; everything else was unimportant.
"That one! She’s currently looking at you! I say, could it be you’re this charming?" ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Bu Daming said with a smile, and Su Xuan followed the direction Bu Daming pointed at, seeing a girl with a crown on her head looking at him.
With pleasant features and a slender figure, though not breathtakingly beautiful, she could be considered above average in looks. Sun Qianxun was wearing a princess dress, making her look very cute.
At this moment, Sun Qianxun was curiously looking at Su Xuan. Su Xuan gave her a slight smile, acknowledging her.
"Qianxun, do you know that uncle?"
In front of these girls, Su Xuan and his companion had already fallen into the uncle category. Though Su Xuan didn’t appear very old, he did seem mature in thoughts. Su Xuan had experienced much more than others, so his aura was much more mature and steady.
"I don’t know him, but he does look a bit familiar. I feel like I’ve seen him somewhere before!"
Sun Qianxun said softly, internally wondering why seeing this man made her heartbeat faster, as if she had met him somewhere before.
"Haha, people thought you knew him too, and were thinking of introducing us. This uncle is quite handsome!"
A non-mainstream dressed girl next to Qianxun said mischievously, and then picked up a drink and swayed towards where Su Xuan was.
"Uncle, may I know your name?"
"Cough cough..."
Su Xuan felt a bit awkward, unconsciously having become an uncle.
"You can just call me Uncle!"
Su Xuan said awkwardly.
"Uncle is so humorous, Uncle, do you know how to dance the rumba? Can I dance with you?"
"..."
Su Xuan was speechless, thinking to himself, are girls these days so forward? He still couldn’t quite grasp the mindset of this batch of post-’95s.
"He can! He can do any dance!"
Su Xuan pointed at Bu Daming and quickly said, as Bu Daming rolled his eyes wildly, thinking to himself, at a time like this, you push me out. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
"But I just want to dance with you!"
The young girl naturally clung to Su Xuan’s arm, looking like they were quite familiar.
"Uh... alright then!"
Su Xuan thought for a moment; this girl seemed to be quite familiar with Sun Qianxun. After dancing, he could just go and get to know Sun Qianxun.
With a burst of music, Su Xuan and this non-mainstream girl started dancing. Dancing wasn’t difficult for Su Xuan; after all, dancing and martial arts have a lot in common.
Bu Daming looked at Su Xuan happily dancing with this non-mainstream girl, feeling a bit envious. Su Xuan really did have a way with the ladies.
Sure enough, after a warm-up dance, Su Xuan was pulled into the group of girls by this non-mainstream girl. He wondered if these girls had a thing for uncles or what, but Su Xuan quickly became familiar with them.
Just then, a rather show-offy song began playing in the room, a cover of Hua’s "Love You for Ten Thousand Years". To be honest, the singing was a bit over-the-top.
A voice was heard singing, and a pretty boy with dyed yellow hair walked in, eyes slightly closed and looking quite content as he sang. The feeling was as if the song hadn’t enchanted others, but rather enchanted himself.
When the song ended, everyone’s faces twisted slightly, each thinking to themselves that if you can’t sing, then don’t. It was so awful, what was the point?
"Such a song should only exist in the heavens; where in the mortal world would one get to hear it? If Young Master Fan enters the music industry, he’d take over half of Huaxia’s music realm!"
At this moment, a man stood up, flattery evident on his face, and began to clap.
"Pfft..."
Su Xuan couldn’t hold it in any longer, spitting out a mouthful of water, thinking to himself, my God, you don’t have to butter him up to that level, do you? Half of the music industry with that duck voice? I really don’t see it.
The other girls whispered among themselves, seemingly saying how embarrassing it was.
The guy kissing up raised an eyebrow, looking at Su Xuan with displeasure.
"I say, Uncle, is it really that funny?"
"It is quite funny!"
Su Xuan, straightforward as always, said bluntly.
"What’s so funny? Did I say something wrong? Do you think Young Master Fan’s singing isn’t good?"
This guy was cunning, directly redirecting the topic, both kissing up and putting Su Xuan in a tight spot. If Su Xuan said the singing wasn’t good, he’d definitely slap Young Master Fan in the face, and offending Young Master Fan was not wise, especially not today.
If Su Xuan said it was good, it’d be a slap to his own face, so this move really put him in a predicament.
"Actually, I was laughing because I thought of something. There was a certain, shall we say, lower-tier singer who never made headlines, and their songs weren’t much, yet their team hyped them up as if without them, Huaxia’s music realm would lose half of its foundation. The singer wasn’t the problem, the problem was the group of people who acted like pigs, causing them to be the butt of jokes by major media!"
Su Xuan spoke rather subtly, and when he finished, these young folks initially didn’t get what Su Xuan was trying to say.
