Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 668: This is my son, Chen Qijun!
Chapter 668: Chapter 668: This is my son, Chen Qijun!
The guitarist explained seriously, "This is not just any guitar; it’s custom-made. Just one string costs thousands, and the wood is of high quality. But most special is the pattern engraved here on the back—putting inlay and engravings on a guitar is the most meticulous work. Even I might not be confident of achieving such a result, so this must be the work of a master. Naturally, repairs would be troublesome."
Everyone had not expected Jiang Shixu, who appeared so ordinary in both dress and demeanor, to possess such an expensive guitar.
But thinking about it that way, his outburst today made complete sense.
It would be strange not to be angry when such an expensive guitar was smashed like that!
"Alright, stop gawking here; the second round of the show is about to start. Get back to practice right now!" Wen Feifei clapped her hands and shooed away the trainees who were loitering at the door.
She then handed the guitar over to Xi Yang.
"You handle the repairs yourself, and bring it to me for inspection once it’s fixed."
Xi Yang clenched his teeth and caught the guitar, his knuckles already turning white.
He noted this debt!
Straight after, Chen Qijun looked at Jiang Shixu hiding behind Tai Fan and said, "After the fight you two had today, it’s unrealistic for you to stay together. I’ll contact the dormitory manager to rearrange your accommodation."
Upon hearing this, Sister Liu immediately put on a flattering face and said, "Mr. Chen, rest assured, I will definitely arrange their dormitory well. Plus, I will keep an eye on the others, ensuring they don’t cause any more problems!"
Chen Qijun chuckled softly, "Our company can’t accommodate your big presence, and you’re really not cut out for dormitory management. You should go home early and let your daughter take care of you. Oh right, your daughter works in HR, right? As the saying goes, ’A crooked beam leads to uneven rafters.’ Seeing as you’re like this, it seems she mustn’t be up to much either. In this board meeting, I’ll suggest her appointment be reconsidered."
Sister Liu paled instantly, "Mr. Chen, you mustn’t do that, it’s all my fault; it has nothing to do with my daughter. You can’t fire her—"
Sister Liu’s voice was shrill and grating. Chen Qijun, running out of patience, nudged her sunglasses and waved her hand dismissively. The security guards at the door immediately came over, dragged her away, and didn’t let her say another word.
[Wow, just like that? That’s Mr. Chen for you!]
[I really wonder if Tai Fan is actually her biological son. How can two people not share any similarities at all, from top to bottom, inside and out?]
[My god, Mr. Chen is so cool, I’m almost tempted to become a fan.]
[Fan? Handsome and rich, I’d rather marry him directly!]
Chen Qijun then walked up to a nervous Jiang Shixu, and finally removed her sunglasses, revealing a pair of beautiful yet sharp eyes.
But in those eyes, there was a hint of warmth now.
"Are you Shiguang?"
Jiang Shixu froze, quickly raised his head to look at her, then promptly lowered his head again, until Tai Fan nudged him. Then it seemed like he snapped back to reality, nodding vigorously, his voice as thin as a mosquito’s.
"Yes... I am Shiguang."
Seeing him nervously fidgeting with the hem of his clothing, Chen Qijun unexpectedly raised her hand and gently patted his shoulder, softly saying, "I’ve seen your debut performance; you have a superior voice. Work hard, and you’re sure to become famous. I believe in you."
Jiang Shixu hadn’t expected the fierce Chen Qijun from a moment ago to suddenly turn into a gentle aunt, offering him careful guidance. He was touched, his eyes unintentionally reddening, then nodded emphatically, "Okay, I will work hard!"
Tai Fan, on the other hand, looked as if he had just seen something incredible, his eyes widening. Just as he was about to erupt, Chen Qijun put her sunglasses back on and glanced towards him, coldly saying, "Come out with me."
The anger Tai Fan had just rekindled deflated in an instant.
"We still need to rehearse, why are you calling me out?"
Chen Qijun sneered coldly, "Don’t I know how useless you are? Rehearse? You spend 10 hours a day in bed, and the remaining 4 hours you’re either eating or figuring out how to escape. What rehearsal are you talking about?"
[Hahahahaha I’m dying of laughter hahaha]
[Criticism from his own mom.]
[Now I know why Tai Fan has been so reluctant since the beginning of the show, it turns out he was forced here by Mr. Chen.]
Helplessly, Tai Fan could only follow Chen Qijun out with his head down.
The two arrived at a nearby lounge, and after shutting the door, Chen Qijun dropped her bag and sunglasses, plunking down onto the sofa and glaring at her incompetent son.
"Chen Taifan, I thought after so many years abroad you would have matured, but how long were you on the show before you caused trouble? Now you’re even getting into fights!"
Tai Fan felt very wronged, "But I just couldn’t stand seeing Little Shiguang being bullied, and I stood up for him."
"There are many ways to stand up for someone, but you just had to choose the dumbest one!" Chen Qijun scolded without mincing words.
Tai Fan: "..."
"I am your own son, are you really going to scold me without holding back?!" Tai Fan’s voice lowered, sounding slightly resentful, "You’re not like this with Shiguang. The way you just looked at him and spoke to him was so gentle, anyone who didn’t know better would think you were his real mom!"
He had never seen this woman be so gentle with anyone else from the day he was born!
Chen Qijun didn’t even understand why herself.
But every time she saw Shiguang, she just couldn’t help the flood of maternal affection, feeling that the child was pitifully delicate, like a lamb.
Such a child should be cherished by everyone when they come into this world.
Not like her useless son, who deserved to be scolded!
"Don’t give me all these excuses, I heard from Wen Feifei that you’ve tried to escape several times, causing them a lot of effort just to keep an eye on you. Have you forgotten the agreement between us? Unless you’re eliminated, you can only stay here to gain experience. Are you really trying to make me cut off your financial resources and donate all my inheritance to charity?!"
Tai Fan: !!!
Listen! Listen! Listen!
Is there another mother in the world as ruthless as her?!
Looking into Chen Qijun’s sharp eyes, Tai Fan didn’t dare say anything else and could only reluctantly say,
"Alright, alright, I get it. I won’t run away again, you can rest assured!"
It’s just a crummy reality show! He refused to believe that he could actually be grinded down to death here!
Chen Qijun seemed satisfied at last, getting up from the sofa, gathering her things, and getting ready to leave.
As she pushed open the door, she turned back to look at her son.
"However, putting other things aside, the way you stood up for Shiguang today was quite handsome. That’s more like a son of Chen Qijun."
