Chapter 620: Secret Affair Exposed (2)
Li Beinian was sleeping too comfortably and did not want to get out of bed. She was not hungry either. She really didn’t want to go, but she remembered that she had already promised Feng Yiran. She had no choice but to get up after struggling a little and lazing in bed for another ten minutes.
After washing up, the girls put on their makeup.
Li Beinian yawned and couldn’t be bothered to move. She put on some face cream and was ready to go.
The gathering was organized by Feng Yiran, so needless to say, the treat was on him.
They went to a very classy Western restaurant for dinner and Li Beinian secretly found the food lip-smackingly good.
Although the instructors did not come, the cost of eating at such a venue was not low by any means.
A meal for 20 people worked out to be a hefty sum.
After dinner, they headed for a nightclub.
It was a KTV.
According to Feng Yiran, this was a venue owned by his friend hence the night’s activities would be complimentary. Everyone was free to eat and play.
Liu Wei was a microphone-hog. In the past, she had been the singer for end themes of various television dramas. An now that she had the microphone in her hand, she refused to let go.
Basically, everyone had selected their song and the four microphones made the rounds. They sang over each other, it was very lively.
Li Beinian rarely attended such gatherings, hence it was a novelty for her. She picked up the tambourine and started playing on it with Wang Shao.
As the night went on, everyone inevitably started drinking.
Jiang Chun raised his glass and toasted everyone. Following this everyone started raising their glass to toast everyone else.
Li Xueqing also selected a few songs. They were all recent songs that were trending.
However, very few people knew how to sing them, and it was difficult to imitate the singer’s voice. These were difficult songs.
Only Wang Shao and two other younger men could handle them.
Feng Yiran finally proposed a toast and went round with his glass. After this, he sat down beside Li Beinian.
The music at the venue was a little loud. To make himself heard, Feng Yiran could only lean in and shout into her ear, “Come, Beinian, I’m so lucky to have met you. Cheers!”
Li Beinian knew that he was just being cordial. She picked her glass of fruit juice and took a sip.
Feng Yiran downed his drink and spoke into Li Beinian’s ear, “Why aren’t you singing? You have a nice voice, I’m sure you sing very well!”
Liu Wei had also asked her to sing just then, but it was only a casual suggestion.
Li Beinian smiled broadly when she heard Feng Yiran’s compliment. However, she replied, “Go ahead and sing. I’ll listen.”
When Feng Yiran heard this, he quickly shouted, “I’ll select a song. Let’s sing together.”
Having said that, he went to the music stand without waiting for Li Beinian’s agreement.
In order to avoid an awkward atmosphere, Feng Yiran cleverly chose an old song.
It was a classic love song duet. Feng Yiran snatched the microphone from Liu Wei and handed it to Li Beinian.
Li Beinian looked at the song, and with an awkward expression, spoke into the microphone, “I don’t know this…”
“No way, you don’t even know such a classic song?”
“…I really don’t.”
“Then, what about Because of Love?” Feng Yiran asked.
As soon as he had asked this, someone interjected. “So that’s how it is!”
“You’re up to no good, rascal!”
“…”
At once, the scene became quite chaotic.
Li Beinian said with a straight face, “Go to hell. It’s Feng Yiran’s treat today. Whoever continues this din will have to foot the bill.”
Everyone laughed and said, “Yes, yes, yes, go ahead and sing. Beinian hasn’t even sung yet!”
“I’ve not heard you sing too,” Li Xueqing said. “Don’t tell me you’re tone deaf?”
