I Am The Omnipotent Prince Charming

Chapter 57: Someone Came to the Door For the Song

 

Not only Caroline but also the other students in the class were speechless toward Li Yan’s act.

It is fine that he could not answer, but he kept being jealous of Su Chen and was pinpointing on him.

Isn’t this finding trouble? Did Su Chen provoke you?

Just because Su Chen is more handsome than you, and his study ability is stronger than you too, should you be jealous of him, and find fault in him continuously? Is there no end to it?

“Yes, my English is not as good as his English. But his learning attitude has problems, too! You have to do what you have to do in class.”

Li Yan noticed the students around him were looking at him with disgust in their eyes. He was also aware that he was rushing into things. Since the matter had become like this, he could only continue.

Pan Xiaojie touched Su Chen with his elbow. Only then, Su Chen came out of his oblivious state. After listening to Pan Xiaojie explain to him the situation, he immediately understood.

“Who said that I did not listen? Translate the third paragraph, right? Listen carefully.” Su Chen spoke calmly.

As the crowd watched, he rose to his feet with his textbook. He smoothly and perfectly translated the third passage into Mandarin without pausing.

“Any more questions?” Su Chen finished translating and gave a light glance at Li Yan.

Li Yan looked pale and speechless.

“Perfect. Su Chen, please sit.”

Caroline smiled and pressed her palm, as she said, “In fact, your English level has reached a level that you would not need my tutor anymore. You could even skip attending my class. I would give you the permit to skip my following classes. You can go and read in the library. It is too tiring to bring so many books to the classroom. You won’t need to bring them here anymore.”

The students in the classroom were dumbfounded.

You could even do that?

Is this the difference between students who do well and those who don’t?

“Thank you, teacher.”

Su Chen thanked her with a smile and then sat down.

“By the way, Su Chen, there will be a national English speaking contest held by Xinguang Education Group next month. There are two quotas in the teacher’s hand. At your level, you can definitely win a prize,” said Caroline with a smile.

“I’ll skip that.”

Su Chen smiled and shook his head politely. He was not interested in taking part in the English speaking competition.

“Are you sure you are not going? The prize money for the champion is two hundred thousand!” said Caroline as she smiled.

All the students’ eyes lit up.

Su Chen was no exception. He was preparing to practice The Thirteen Cross Practice and would need a lot of money to buy medicinal materials.

“This quota is very precious. A lot of students from the foreign language department seek me for the quota to take part in the competition. You can consider it. As long as you give me an answer today, ” said Caroline smiling.

“No, teacher. I will join,” said Su Chen directly.

Caroline giggled. “You are indeed a little money fan. Okay, I’ll help you sign up, then.”

Caroline smiled with satisfaction. Her eyes showed love when she looked at Su Chen. No teacher would not like this kind of handsome and smart student, who loves to learn.

Although he was reading books on other subjects, he has learned English well enough. His meticulous attitude was comfortable to look at.

On the contrary, another student, who doesn’t look good, doesn’t study hard, and is jealous of others, was not pleasing to the eye.

Caroline stopped smiling and glanced at Li Yan coldly. “Sit down. Be more attentive in class next time. Or I will not give you a chance during the final exams. You would fail if you answer badly.”

Li Yan felt wronged in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent his feelings. So he could only sit down with a pale face.

“This boy is nothing good. I don’t understand why he is always against you. He is really sick,” said Pan Xiaojie angrily.

“I’m going to continue reading my book. Don’t call me if there is nothing.’

Su Chen said and then continued to flip the book.

He was too lazy to talk to a clown such as Li Yan.

…

When the bell rang, Su Chen Informatics’s proficiency was not far from the advanced level.

“Mr. Su!”

When Su Chen had just walked out of the classroom, he heard a shout. Then, he saw a middle-aged woman, who was wearing office lady attire, walking quickly over with a smile.

“Who are you?” Su Chen looked at the woman, puzzled.

“How do you do, Mr. Su? I’m Lu Hong, the agent of Chu Yichen.” The woman smiled, then took out a business card and handed it to Su Chen.

“Ah!”

When several girls around them heard this, they screamed in surprise. They looked at the woman excitedly.

Chu Yichen is the hunky boy with high popularity in the current entertainment circle. He is the idol of many young girls.

Su Chen took the card to take a look and asked, “Hello. Is there anything I can help you with?”

“Well, Mr. Su., we are very interested in the song you sang at the welcoming ceremony. I wonder if I could ask you to have a full talk over dinner,” said Lu Hong with a smile.

Su Chen was stunned for a while, then nodded and agreed.

He needed the money and had no interest in becoming a singer. So he was willing to sell the song if he was offered enough.

“That would be great, please!”

Lu Hong made a gesture of invitation.

“God, Su Chen’s song is going to sell to Chu Yichen? Great news!”

“I’m done. I forgot to take a picture and post it on my Wechat moments.”

“I wonder how much money Su Chen would be able to make by selling the song? He is really something. We are still studying and he has already had cooperation with a big star.”

“It won’t be long before there are resources for the song online. It is great. I love the song.”

“We would have a classmate who writes songs for Chu Yichen. It would be a great thing to boast about.”

These sorts of comments continued.

Watching the two left, a group of students excitedly discussed and worshiped.

Li Yan’s eyes were full of jealousy, and he said sourly, “What is so great about that? Isn’t it just a song? It is not even a sure thing that he could get the deal.”

As soon as he said this, the crowd looked at him with contempt.

“Sour. Very sour, indeed.”

“Can you stop being so jealous of others? Don’t you feel ashamed?”

“If you have the talent, why don’t you write a song?”

“You are really sick.”

“Damn, Li Yan. Try to babble again. Are you trying to get beaten up?” said Guo Lei as he pointed and stared at Li Ruo fiercely.

Li Yan felt afraid. He coldly snorted then fled away.

“Bah, what is he?”

A guy spat in disgust.

“Never mind. He is small-hearted. Just ignore him next time.”

“It’s really unlucky to have such a person like that as a classmate.”

…

Along the way, Lu Hong did not directly say that she wanted to buy the song. She was just saying all kinds of good things to praise Su Chen for having such an ability at a young age–he has the talent, and so on.

Su Chen responded with a polite and modest smile, while he held his mobile phone typing a message that explained the situation to Lin Yumeng.

Both of them walked out of the campus and came to a nearby western restaurant.

Su Chen ordered a steak and a vegetable soup. He did not intend to fill his stomach because of his big appetite. He would go back to the school canteen and have more food.

The dishes were soon on the table.

“Mr. Su, to tell you the truth, we truly like your song ‘Confession Balloon’. So I am visiting you personally to ask if you would be willing to sell it to us.”

Lu Hong cut the topic to the point with a smile.

“What price can you offer?” Su Chen took a knife and fork and cut the steak as he looked at her.

Lu Hong smiled and raised her right hand. She showed five fingers. “Fifty thousand. How is the price?”

“The performing copyrights, too?” asked Su Chen as he doubted.

Lu Hong was stunned. Then she put on a professional smile again as she said, “Mr. Su, you are joking. Of course, it is for all the copyrights.”
