Ch25 - Singing the Greatest Show (2) — Wearing a Plum Blossom

Sunnyshies: Hahaha, sorry for the late update! Peace! (ʘᴗʘ✿)

It would be more difficult to find Chu He in this world than in the previous world. 

There are hundreds of people who come and go every day in the theater house, and there are dozens of people who came here to set up the stage. Good skin to dazzle the eyes, not to mention the rest, Ye Su’an and Jiang Zhengrong alone have first-class beautiful faces.

Su An was completely confused as he looked at all the people with ulterior motives, but after the nurture of the first world, he was able to sink his teeth into the situation and face each suspicious person with a smile.

The next morning, Chang Shi brought the little beggar, who finally woke up, to find Su An. Su An was just eating porridge, and when he looked up, he saw the little beggar’s washed hands and face. He was skinny, but with a face like hibiscus, he was staring at Su An blankly.

With red lips, thin eyebrows, and fair skin, without any solid family background, no one can raise such a child, how could this be a little beggar? 

Ye Su’an’s eyes flashed, and he waved to the little beggar, who timidly walked to his side.

“What’s your name?” Su An picked up a tea egg from the table and put it in his hand as he smiled softly, “Where did you come from?”

The little beggar held the egg tightly, the tip of his eye turned jaded. He opened his mouth, but could not say anything, then finally held his face red and gestured clumsily.

“Can’t speak?” Ye Su’an asked Chang Shi in surprise.

Chang Shi nodded, “Master, this beggar is a mute.”

Su An immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

This is a sigh of relief for the little beggar.

The original owner is really not kind. Although he dislikes others talking about his appearance, if there are people who are better-looking than him, maybe the first one to smile and start with his hand is the original owner. 

In the end, Su An is not really the original owner, no matter how much he pretends to be like him, he can’t do that. This is good, being dumb is miserable enough, but at least it is safe.

He sighed lightly and patted the little beggar’s head with pity, “Then you will stay by my side in the future. Since you can’t speak, you have to learn to read and write. Now I don’t know your surname, so why don’t I choose a name for you?”

The little beggar was moved to tears, and nodded heavily.

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

Ye Su’an thought about it and smiled, “Then I’ll call you Yu Qiong.”

He patted the seat next to him.

Su An sat down, and Jiang Zhengrong whispered, “Why did you come so early?” 

“Look to see if there’s anything I can help with,” Su An smiled steadily, “President Jiang, are you drinking that up now?”

Jiang Zhengrong’s tone was light: “This is a banquet for Second Master He, you won’t be able to eat much in the banquet, so it is good to eat at the table in advance.”

After the table of dishes were nearly consumed, dozens of tables were also filled. The protagonist of this banquet came late, He Changhuai strode in with a horsewhip hanging from his waist, holding it in a cool manner, “President Jiang, don’t blame me for being late.”

Jiang Zhengrong got up, then smiled no more, no less, and said politely: “Second Master He is polite.” 

The people at the table also followed and stood up. In a group of businessmen with wrinkled smiles, Ye Su’an looked like he was in the wrong place. He is also wearing a cheongsam today. Its black and this reflect his white dazzling complexion clearly

He Changhuai was dazzled as he sat down, he couldn’t help licking his teeth, and stifled a laugh.

“Second Master He, what are you laughing at?” Li Lian asked curiously.

He Changhuai shook his head and said in a low voice, “The bandits are rampant outside, and the north of Jincheng is even more chaotic. Looking at Boss Ye like this, I am afraid that if he goes out, he will be kidnapped by the female bandits on the top of the mountain.” 

Li Lian couldn’t help laughing, and his laughter provoked a crowd of people on the table. This guy still had no awareness and cheerfully continued: “Second master this is not right. Does it have to be a female bandit to take away our Boss Ye?”

There was silence on the table, and Li Lian finally came to his senses. His voice became lower and lower, and snapped into a halt, then he turned his head to meet Ye Su’an’s eyes.

Ye Su’an raised his eyes, and his phoenix eyes were smiling. His voice was soft and gentle, like a second month of spring breeze, “Young Master Li, where did the female bandit come from?”

Li Lian’s face immediately turned red, stammering, unable to utter a good word. 

He Changhuai laughed loudly, he stood up and personally served wine to Ye Su’an. His sword eyebrows curved slightly, and his every move is refined and heroic, “Boss Ye, I will apologize to you on his behalf.”

Su An thought to himself: Sorry, the hatred was already recorded on the top of my small notebook.

The corners of his mouth pursed slightly, and he looked at He Changhuai quietly, his eyes were clear, but he didn’t speak.

Some of the surrounding bosses frowned and wanted to advise Ye Su’an not to be so insensitive, causing the atmosphere to be awkward. But when they looked up, they saw Jiang Zhengrong drinking wine leisurely with a smile on his lips. He didn’t make a sound, and the other people naturally also didn’t want to stand out. 

He Changhuai raised his hand in the air for a few seconds, then he raised a brow and looked at Ye Su’an with a smile that did not seems like a smile, and personally picked up Ye Su’an’s wine glass and stuffed it into his hand, showing a bit of strength in secret, “Boss Ye, please.”

Su An pursed his lips with the wine glass sticking close to him, then his throat pearl rolled, and the glass was empty, “Second Master,

please take a look?” 

Li Lian’s face was red with shame. It is obvious that they were the ones who made a joke out of Boss Ye, now they even let Boss Ye accompany the drink. Li Lian can’t wait to find a seam to get in, and quickly pulls Second Master’s clothes, and whispers, “Second Master, my good Second Master, you quickly sit down!”

He Changhuai sat down, but his eyes were still on Ye Su’an, “Boss Ye is a good drinker.”

Su An couldn’t hold back and gave him a glance.

He Changhuai’s whole body was numb for a moment, and when he regained his senses, He Changhuai couldn’t help laughing, thinking that this little white-faced Boss Ye really was something. 

The banquet was buzzing with excitement, and He Changhuai’s side was the most lively. Every personalities in Jingcheng were all in front of He Changhuai, and the bosses were rushing to greet each other.

“Young Master Li,” Second Master He crossed his legs and nodded his chin, “What is the relationship between Boss Ye and President Jiang?”

“Keep your voice down,” Li Lian said in a low voice. He is embarrassed to look at Ye Su’an now, “They said to be friends. Boss Ye and President Jiang have been friends for many years. Boss Ye has not sung opera for five or six years, so if anyone wants to hear him, only President Jiang has this ability. It can be seen that their relationship is not ordinary.”

He Changhuai shook his head: “A profiteering businessman is really unworthy.” 

 So you’re not a stinky businessman anymore?

Li Lian almost blurted out these words, but he tried his best to hold it in his throat. He just has to get along with this son of nobility.

Su An suddenly covered himself with a handkerchief and coughed a few times in a low voice.

Jiang Zhengrong squeezed his hand and asked with concern, “Are you cold?” 

“It’s okay,” Su An smiled, “I’m going out for a breath of fresh air.”

He got up and walked out. The winter snow outside was cold and windy. There are still a few old plum trees blooming in the Hundred Year Old Garden. Su An was so cold that the tip of his nose turned red, and he couldn’t help coughing twice.

A warm coat draped over his shoulders, “Boss Ye, enjoy the flowers.”

Su An was stunned for a moment, then turned around with a smile, “Second Master, I met you again.” 

This young master came on horseback. Under his coat is a dark riding suit, which is also a new style. There’s a gold watch hung on his chest, the horsewhip was pinned to his waist, and his windbreaker has the smell of snowflakes and dust. Su An’s face was frozen white, and he couldn’t help burying in the coat, leaving only a pair of picturesque eyebrows.

Young Master He unconsciously raised his eyes and said with dignity and courtesy, “This is the air outlet, but Boss Ye came here to enjoy the flowers. Just standing here, aren’t you afraid of being caught in the cold wind.”

“And I said how come it’s so cold,” Ye Suan laughed, and tugged at the coat that wrapped his whole body, “I, thank Second Master for reminding me.”

The two walked towards the plum blossom tree one after the other. Su An knew that He Changhuai was not simple, but he was not in a hurry to test him. However, He Changhuai acted like a very considerate gentleman along the way, and he had a lot of strange and whimsical words. Su An was amused and couldn’t help laughing, and finally waved his hands tiredly. 

He Changhuai smiled slightly, then folded a flower from the plum tree, and pinned it lightly on his long cheongsam under Su An’s coat, “Boss Ye is dressed plainly today, so I’ll borrow the flowers for a while to add some color to Boss Ye.”

He took a step forward, and his tall figure brought a heavy sense of oppression. Su An was suffocated, and in a trance, he fell in trance, and felt like he was facing the last world He Xiran.

He took a step back involuntarily.

However, He Changhuai’s hand reached out steadily and pinned the plum blossom to Su An. 

“Boss Ye,” He said with a smile, as if he didn’t notice that Su An had just dodged a step, “These plum blossoms are small, yet just appropriate. If you go for a few more months, it’s better to use peonies. Don’t look at the peony being too gorgeous and vulgar. Boss Ye, don’t go, that’s the only thing that is good to look at.”

“Second Master is joking,” Su An quickly calmed down, and touched the plum petals, then smiled, “It’s almost time, I should go back.”

The corners of He Changhuai’s mouth hooked up, “I’ll go with you, Boss Ye.”
