Chapter One Hundred Sixteen: Our Concert

  Guo Xiaoyu and his group had been talking with Chūkawa in the reception room for about half an hour when Guo's voice came over the public address system of the Central Building:

  Good evening to all friends shopping at Central Department Store!

  My name is Guo Xiaoyu, and I am one of the top 12 contestants in this year's Happy Boys' Voice national competition. Alongside me are five other talented individuals: Jin Zhiwen, who exudes maturity and stability; Zuo Lishi, a charming gentleman; Zhang Hengyuan, whose voice speaks to his dreams; Hua Chenyu, with his endearing and handsome demeanor; and Yu Yuxin, the introverted yet soulful vocalist.

  It's now 7 o'clock sharp. In half an hour, the six of us will be here to give a crazy concert for all our friends tonight.

  No stage is needed, for this mall is our stage; no grand accompaniment team is needed, for we have our own voice; no ticket-buying audience is needed, for you are our audience!

  Let's rock this place in half an hour!

  After finishing speaking, Guo Xiaoyu slammed the microphone heavily. The loud "bang" echoed in the mall for a long time without fading away...

  "Wow..."

  The mall suddenly exploded, the older ones were full of expectation, and the younger ones screamed wildly. Whether it was customers or merchants, they all fell into a joyful atmosphere for a while.

  First floor, in the hall. A fashionable girl hugged her companion and shouted: "Concert! Concert! Xiao Yu's concert!"

  "Right, right! Xiao Yu is so cool! So domineering!" Her companion was also full of excitement.

  At this time, the girl seemed to have thought of something and immediately dialed the phone, saying: "Xiao Pian, come quickly to the central department store in Fu'an District, Xiao Yu is going to hold a concert here." The girl was also a winged one, and at this moment she dialed Hong Xiaopian's phone.

  On the other end of the phone, Hong Xiaopan hung up and rushed out the door, complaining as he ran: "This Xiao Yu is really something, opening a concert without notifying us in advance, I have to hurry and notify them now."

  ……

  On the second floor of the mall, a man was originally reluctantly accompanying his girlfriend to buy clothes. However, after the broadcast sounded, he immediately became excited and called all his friends over with his phone. He happened to be a fan of Jin Zhiwen and didn't expect to encounter such good luck while doing chores.

  The girl saw her boyfriend smile, and quietly stretched out her hand to touch his belly. Looking at her boyfriend's happy expression, she said, "Are you happy now?"

  "Hurray, hurray!" The boy hugged the girl and kissed her, saying: "You're the best! From now on, I'll listen to you completely!" Then the boy walked away with his mobile phone.

  ……

  In the reception room of the mall, a young man sat under Wrinkle River and asked with a puzzled face: "Wrinkle General, with this commotion, the mall won't be able to do business tonight. How much profit will we lose in one day?"

  "So what?"

  Seeing Wrinkle River's calm demeanor, the young man said: "Wrinkle General, last month in Fu'an District we were again last place, this month if we are again last place, your position will not be guaranteed." If someone else had said that, Wrinkle River would have definitely gotten angry. But the young man in front of him was different, at his most desperate time, this young man followed him, can be said to be his absolute confidant.

  Zhou Jiang gestured for the young man to sit down and said, "Don't be in a hurry, you're even older than that Guo Xiaoyu from earlier, how come you can't calm down like him?"

  Zhouhe took a sip of tea and continued: "The central department store in our Fu'an District was originally located in a relatively remote area. To surpass the few stores in the city center, we need popularity, explosive popularity. And what has the highest popularity in this world? Actors and singers. Among them, singers can be directly showcased. Nowadays, Fast Men is the most popular show, so it's a good opportunity for us to seize. Moreover, they only asked us to send a car to take them to the castle, such a free lunch, who wouldn't do it?"

  ……

  Time flies quickly, half an hour passes in the blink of an eye.

  The staff in the department store have already placed various temporary equipment around the building, even outside. All screens inside the building are now blacked out and will soon play back the live recording of Guo Xiaoyu's concert.

  Innumerable people surged into the building, within half an hour, fans, journalists and ordinary crowds flocked here in droves. Now the surrounding area of the Central Department Store is packed with all sorts of vehicles, causing traffic congestion even further away, and traffic control personnel are extremely busy.

  Actually, relying on Guo Xiaoyu and their own popularity wouldn't have caused this situation. But this time was particularly coincidental, first of all it was sudden, secondly the geographical location. The central department store in Fu'an district is not only located in a biased position, but also the surrounding traffic is absolutely inconvenient, with only one road that can accommodate three cars driving side by side. Moreover, people always like to follow the crowd, so more and more people came. The more people there were, the more congested the roads became, the more congested the roads were, the more people came, and then it became like this now.

  About four or five kilometers away from here, Hong Xiaopan and his group were stuck in the surging traffic. His usual speedy Bugatti Veyron Sang-Noir (Black Blood) was now no different from a pile of scrap iron, at most it could be considered a pile of good-looking scrap iron.

  "Little piece, I told you not to drive this car over here, but you insisted. We could have just abandoned the other cars and walked, now look, we're stuck here."

  Seeing his companions talking nonsense, Hong Xiaopan said with a bad tone: "Who had to open it up and play with the wind at that time? Was it me?" In fact, Hong Xiaopan was not reluctant to give up this car. The price of the car was just a small amount of pocket money for him. The key point was that this black blood was a global limited edition, and he had spent a lot of money to get it. Now if Yang was going to lose it on the road, Hong Xiaopan would not be at ease.

  Seeing Hong Xiaopian's outburst, his companion shrugged and said: "Anyway, we just followed to join in the fun. It was you who wanted to watch that Guo Xiaoyu concert, I really don't understand why you like that guy, he's not even worth the price of this car, you..."

  His companion was chattering away when Hong Xiaopan suddenly grabbed his neck, opened the car door and threw him out.

  The people left saw Hong Xiaopian blow up and didn't dare to speak. They were all in the same circle, but the big brother of this circle was Hong Xiaopian. The only one who could argue with him a few words was now lying on the road, so who else dared to speak?

  Just then, Hong Xiaopian dialed her cell phone and said, "Xiao Xun, has the concert started over there?"

  "All I could hear was an excited girl's voice coming from the phone: "Bro, where are you? The subtitles have already been displayed in the hall and it's about to start."

  "I'm still stuck outside."

  "What's still blocking you? What else does that broken car want to do? Just come over!" This is indeed the brother and sister, their tone of speech is exactly the same.

  After hearing his sister's words, Hong Xiaopian said helplessly: "I'm driving a black blood."

  "Hmm..." Hong Xiaoxun also knew how much his older brother treasured that car, and unexpectedly, he brought it out today.

  At this time, Hong Xiaopan, who was in a state of panic, suddenly heard his sister Baobei's crazy shouting: "Brother... brother... it's starting... it's starting..." Then Hong Xiaopan heard the prelude to a song, and most surprisingly, he had never heard this song before.

  "I'm going to wipe...". Hong Xiaopan was so anxious that he opened the door and ran out, leaving the majestic black car stopped in the middle of the road.
