Li Lun mocked Ye Chen as a lowly delivery guy, but Ye Chen arrived driving a luxury Wind God sports car, proving ownership with its fingerprint lock and leaving Li Lun humbled and apologetic. Ye Chen then took Song Xiaoxiao to Hu Lili's concert in prime A-section seats. During audience interaction, Hu Lili invited them onstage, where Song Xiaoxiao sang a flawless duet with her, as boy band member Wu Xiaotian asked Ye Chen to cooperate for an autograph.

Ye Chen asked Wu Xiaotian, “How do you want me to help you?”

Wu Xiaotian responded, “I want to chase Hu Lili, so I'm going to confess to her soon. Just play along with me.”

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Sure, I can do that.”

Wu Xiaotian passed a bunch of roses to Ye Chen.

“Later on, act as my assistant and bring the roses over for me.”

Ye Chen gave a light smile, “No issue at all.”

The moment Wu Xiaotian showed up, Ye Chen caught the look of revulsion in Hu Lili’s eyes.

Thus, Ye Chen realized this was purely Wu Xiaotian’s unrequited fantasy.

Moreover, Wu Xiaotian carried several scandals.

For instance, he frequently picked fans for close encounters, including some unspeakable affairs.

Although Ye Chen didn’t know Hu Lili that well, they counted as acquaintances.

How could Ye Chen assist a guy like Wu Xiaotian in bothering Hu Lili?

Once Hu Lili and Song Xiaoxiao wrapped up their show, Wu Xiaotian strode to the stage’s center.

“Hu Lili, today I plan to do something huge right here on this stage.”

Hu Lili furrowed her brows upon hearing Wu Xiaotian.

She murmured, “Wu Xiaotian, don’t stir up trouble.”

Wu Xiaotian smirked, “Lili, today nothing will hold me back.”

Then, Wu Xiaotian grabbed a microphone and announced, “Everyone, I’m about to sing a song dedicated to Lili.”

Its name is “I Love You.”

“Wow!”

The whole venue erupted in excitement.

Some fans even screamed wildly.

Hu Lili’s expression turned utterly grim.

Yet, being onstage, she couldn’t lash out.

The music kicked in.

Wu Xiaotian launched into his song.

This track was hugely popular in their world.

Boys often sang it to declare their affection for girls.

As the song played, fans quickly grasped Wu Xiaotian’s aim.

Wu Xiaotian performed with deep passion, trying to connect with Hu Lili.

However, Hu Lili remained rigid on the spot.

Right then, Hu Lili felt utterly miserable.

Wu Xiaotian was nothing but a repulsive pest.

The concert she had prepared for more than a year got wrecked by him.

After Wu Xiaotian ended his performance, Ye Chen was meant to deliver the roses as planned.

Yet, Ye Chen didn’t show up.

Suddenly, a lovely piano tune began to flow.

Accompanying the piano came a captivating vocal melody.

“I’ve always wanted to tell you

You bring me unexpected happiness like an oasis gives to the desert

Say you’ll always be by my side

Be my roots, my wings, let me fly but also have a nest to return to”

This voice was incredibly stunning.

All eyes shifted toward the origin of the melody.

There sat a man at the piano.

A bouquet of roses rested nearby.

Ye Chen was skillfully playing the piano while singing the tune.

“It’s just loving you, having you, having joy and sorrow, having you makes the mundane meaningful

It’s just loving you, loving you with sweetness and comfort, the feeling is just you”

The venue exploded in frenzy.

“Wow, this song is amazing.”

“So romantic, it’s touching my heart.”

“Is this fan confessing to Lili too?”

Hu Lili stood mesmerized, watching Ye Chen at the piano.

The melody from Ye Chen was truly enchanting, paired with flawless accompaniment, deeply moving Hu Lili.

Song Xiaoxiao was equally shocked.

She hadn’t dreamed Ye Chen could sing so brilliantly.

The most stunned was Wu Xiaotian at that instant.

He had meant for Ye Chen to assist him.

But Ye Chen now stole the entire show.

This deviated wildly from his scheme.

Hu Lili had hoped to grab all the media spotlight.

But now what?

His fame got utterly eclipsed by this youth.

Wu Xiaotian was on the verge of losing it.

What in the world?

As the piano faded out, Ye Chen picked up the roses and approached Hu Lili steadily.

Hu Lili eyed the roses in Ye Chen’s grasp, feeling annoyed.

She pondered inwardly, “Wasn’t this his scheme?”

Hu Lili’s pulse quickened as Ye Chen drew near.

Ye Chen had just shown his Gambling God vibe.

Now, striding elegantly, every step exuded an irresistible allure that thrilled women.

Hu Lili fell completely under Ye Chen’s spell.

In that moment, she even fantasized that if Ye Chen proposed, she’d say yes on the spot.

The crowd went berserk too.

What was this guy up to?

Proposing to Hu Lili?

Good heavens, pure romance!

Ye Chen reached Hu Lili’s side step by step.

Passing her, Ye Chen flashed a subtle smile, “Thanks for the roses.”

“You!” Wu Xiaotian’s face flushed deep crimson in rage.

Ye Chen offered the roses to Hu Lili.

“Lili, this song comes from me, representing all the fans for you. We love you.”

The audience paused briefly at Ye Chen’s words.

They had assumed Ye Chen was confessing like Wu Xiaotian, but he spoke for the fans.

That changed everything.

Thunderous applause filled the air.

With tears brimming, Hu Lili took the roses from Ye Chen.

“Thank you, thank you everyone, thank you Ye Chen.”

Hu Lili now understood Ye Chen had saved the day for her.

Nearby, Wu Xiaotian turned irrelevant.

He stayed kneeling, yet no one spared him a glance.

He resembled a forgotten statue.

No eyes on him, no care for him.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen commanded the venue’s full attention.

Hu Lili beamed, “Thank you, that song is incredibly beautiful. What’s its name?”

Ye Chen grinned, “It’s called ‘Just Love You.’”

Hu Lili nodded, “Thank you, and thanks to all my loving fans.”

The concert soared to fresh heights.

Wu Xiaotian, reduced to a mere tool, slunk offstage in humiliation.

Even as a superstar, he drew less notice than one fan.

Ye Chen left the stage to roaring cheers, while Wu Xiaotian faded into obscurity.

Beyond that, Ye Chen’s song exploded across the internet.

“Wow, ‘Just Love You’ is gorgeous.”

“Who’s that singer? Incredible talent.”

“Heard Wu Xiaotian tried confessing at Lili’s concert but knelt forever unnoticed.”

“Saw it myself, hilarious.”

Post-concert, Ye Chen drove Song Xiaoxiao home.

Ye Chen chuckled, “Xiaoxiao, did you enjoy today?”

“Super happy, Lili’s so genuine.”

“Ye Chen, are you friends with Hu Lili?” Song Xiaoxiao asked abruptly.

Ye Chen smiled faintly upon hearing her, “Yeah, we’ve crossed paths before.”

Song Xiaoxiao squealed with delight, “Brother Ye Chen, you’re incredible. Knowing a star like Hu Lili.”

Ye Chen just smiled silently.

Not only met her—we even starred in a movie together.

Since Song Xiaoxiao had school, Ye Chen dropped her at Modu University.

The following day, a Ferrari raced up to Modu University’s entrance.

Its door swung open, revealing a dashing young man.
