Chapter 896: Chapter 896 [The Jade Pendant’s Secret]

Upon hearing this name, Ye Chenfeng’s body trembled slightly.

“That means Ye Mingtian came to pay the bill!” Ye Chenfeng shouted again.

However, Wang Jun soon hung up the phone.

“What happened?” someone asked.

Wang Jun said regretfully, “Senior Ye said he had something urgent to deal with and can’t come today. He’ll treat us to a meal next time.”

“That’s just an excuse! If he’s going to treat us, why not now? Why wait until next time?” Ye Chenfeng said discontentedly.

The main reason was that this guy made him wait for so long, he was almost famished.

This time, Ye Chenfeng had a great feast, enjoying the meal thoroughly with a decent amount of drinks.

The guys who wanted to compete with him in drinking were all lying on the table, dead drunk.

The girls drank quite a bit too; in short, except for Ye Chenfeng, no one was sober.

“All of you pretending to be drunk, huh? It falls on me to pay the bill!”

Ye Chenfeng, speechless, went to pay the bill, as few of the guys could stand up.

“Sir, here’s the situation: someone has already paid the bill!” When the hotel manager informed Ye Chenfeng of this, his mind went blank.

“Who paid?” Ye Chenfeng asked curiously.

“He made a quick round, paid the bill, and left!”

Ye Chenfeng nodded, “Alright, I got it.”

Ye Chenfeng was now sure Senior Ye Mingtian had been there, and he was completely unaware of it.

After the gathering, everyone proposed going to the KTV for fun.

So, a large group soon headed to the KTV.

At Ginza KTV on such a snowy Sunday, it was already packed, and even an ordinary room required a wait.

However, Chu Qingxue casually pulled a golden card from her bag, and immediately, everyone entered a private room as if it were their own home.

They chose the most luxurious room, which was so spacious that even with twenty or thirty people inside, it felt particularly empty.

“Eh? Qingxue, your jade pendant is beautiful!”

Suddenly, Zhao Ruanmin noticed the Ice Sword Jade Pendant hanging around Chu Qingxue’s neck.

In the dim environment of the private room, Chu Qingxue’s Ice Sword Jade Pendant seemed to emit a faint glowing halo, as if ice crystals were moving inside it.

Hearing this, Chu Qingxue looked down, and the Ice Sword Jade Pendant on her snowy white neck glimmered with a soft, gentle halo, very beautiful and giving a pleasant feeling.

Hearing Zhao Ruanmin’s surprised voice, Ye Chenfeng also looked over and indeed noticed this phenomenon. Chu Qingxue’s Ice Sword Jade Pendant seemed to have something flowing inside, emitting a light halo.

Ye Chenfeng instinctively flipped out the Fire Blade Jade Pendant on his neck and was astonished.

Because, like Chu Qingxue’s Ice Sword Jade Pendant, the Fire Blade Jade Pendant also seemed to have something inside moving, emitting a reddish halo.

This was the first time Ye Chenfeng had seen such a phenomenon, something he had never noticed before.

And this wouldn’t occur during night; it only appeared in the dim environment of settings like a KTV private room.

“Wow, so you two have couple jade pendants!”

Zhao Ruanmin couldn’t help but say upon witnessing this scene.

Chu Qingxue had naturally also noticed Ye Chenfeng’s jade pendant, leading her to some suspicion.

What exactly are these jade pendants? Chu Qingxue suspected that the purpose of the Ice Sword Jade Pendant wasn’t just for her treatment.

“Qingxue, what song do you want to choose?” Suddenly, Zhao Ruanmin’s voice drifted to her ear, bringing the daydreaming Chu Qingxue back to reality.

“Xiaomin, what did you say?”

Chu Qingxue was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask.

“Oh gosh, what are you thinking, Qingxue?” Zhao Ruanmin lightly poked Chu Qingxue’s forehead with her finger, “I was asking what song you want to choose!”

“Oh, oh, a song request!”

However, after realizing it, a flush of blush spread from Chu Qingxue’s face to her ears.

“You all pick for yourself, I won’t sing!” Chu Qingxue said embarrassedly.

“Why not sing? Your voice is so beautiful, it would definitely enchant people!” Zhao Ruanmin said.

Chu Qingxue kept refusing, “You guys sing, I’ll just listen!”

Unable to sway Chu Qingxue, Zhao Ruanmin stepped up and chose a song called “High Song”.

Then she casually kicked off her shoes, standing barefoot on the sofa, singing and dancing. Her fiery dance made her even more captivating, leaving the group of guys itching with excitement.

After finishing her performance, Zhao Ruanmin even tossed a flirtatious glance at Ye Chenfeng, with her chest moving provocatively.

“Handsome, won’t you sing one?” Zhao Ruanmin urged Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng stood up, “Okay! I’ll sing one!”

“You?”

Lu Wanqing said skeptically.

“How about we have a duet? Sing a song together?” Ye Chenfeng asked.

“Sing, just sing, am I afraid of you?” Lu Wanqing said defiantly.

Then, the two chose a song called “Actor”, which had many cover versions at the time.

Everyone held their breath, staring at Ye Chenfeng and Lu Wanqing, and they appeared very compatible standing there.

“Qingxue, they actually look perfect together!” Zhao Ruanmin said.

But seeing Chu Qingxue’s strange expression, Zhao Ruanmin realized she had misspoken.

However, in Chu Qingxue’s view, Ye Chenfeng and Lu Wanqing did seem a perfect match, even she, a novice in romance, could see it.

For a moment, she began to question herself if bringing Ye Chenfeng back was the right decision.

“On the Seine River…”

The two looked at each other defiantly, and put their hearts into the song.

Ye Chenfeng’s slightly raspy voice, with a gentle melody and cheerful style… all these elements combined made it sound particularly pleasing.

Ye Chenfeng’s lake-like clear eyes reflected a hint of melancholy, exuding a sense of sorrowful loneliness, his singing evoking the intensity of smoky lyrics, spreading in the air.

Whereas Lu Wanqing embodied another graceful style, her singing exuded cool elegance, sensuality, and fiery dynamism.

Despite different styles, they seamlessly blended, achieving an invisible harmony that was simply astounding.

Everyone present was thoroughly captivated by the enchanting melody, deeply engrossed as if hypnotized.

When the song ended, everyone in the room looked at Ye Chenfeng and Lu Wanqing with a different gaze – one of admiration, profound admiration!

“Wow… wow!”

Applause thundered like a storm.

Ye Chenfeng and Lu Wanqing were both a bit dumbfounded; given their opposing personalities, cooperation seemed impossible, yet they had just achieved an exceptionally harmonious performance, leaving everyone in awe. They themselves could hardly believe it.

Lu Wanqing’s heart pounded, and she looked at Ye Chenfeng with a hint of change in her eyes.
