Liu Tingting shares her thoughts on practical experience over academics, which Ye Chen supports while also advising the girls not to neglect their studies. Later, they discuss the popular song 'Simple Love,' and Liu Tingting playfully teases Ye Chen about the lyricist sharing his name, causing him to choke on his water.

"Brother Ye Chen, what are you laughing at?" Xie Yingying asked.

"Yeah, Brother Ye Chen, what are you laughing at?" Liu Tingting asked with a smile as well.

"Nothing really." Ye Chen scratched his head and said.

"I heard Wang Hao is going to hold a concert at the Bird’s Nest, I bet there’ll be a ton of people going to listen to him."

"I think so too. Even though Wang Hao is a newly debuted singer, he must already have lots of fans."

The two girls chatted back and forth.

Then they sighed together. "Ah, we really, really want to go see it live."

When they said this, they both looked totally helpless.

Ye Chen could clearly see how desperate Xie Yingying and Liu Tingting were to watch the concert.

Girls at this age all love chasing idols.

Not to mention Wang Hao’s that type who just stepped out of campus, full of youthful vibes.

Ye Chen decided to make Wang Hao the one he was going to push to fame, mainly because of this.

Wang Hao was an artist signed to his company, so for Ye Chen this kind of thing was practically too easy.

Looking at the two girls in front of him, Ye Chen said, "You two little brats want to see a concert that badly?"

"Of course. Lots of girls in our class want to go watch." Liu Tingting nodded as she spoke.

"If you want to see it, that’s easy. I’ll give you money, you go buy tickets." Ye Chen said with a smile.

He figured since Wang Hao was a new singer, his concert tickets shouldn’t be that hard to get.

He originally thought the two girls would be happy.

But Xie Yingying pouted and said, "Brother Ye Chen, you make it sound easy. The tickets for the concert are already sold out, it really is impossible to get one."

Liu Tingting chimed in, "This morning I heard students from other classes talking about buying tickets too."

"I even went online specially to check today. Even the standing tickets are all gone."

Hearing the two girls, Ye Chen was stunned.

He never imagined even in his dreams that Wang Hao’s concert tickets would be this hot.

Ever since that meeting where Ye Chen set Wang Hao’s future development path, he hadn’t paid much attention to the matter.

The company has professional teams for this; there’s no need for him to worry.

Besides, the boss of the company is Su Wanyi; he only comes out to help once in a while.

Right now Ye Chen’s main job is writing songs for Wang Hao.

With his creation Skills and Allen’s copyrights, Ye Chen is more than familiar with this kind of thing.

But after hearing how hard it was to get concert tickets, Ye Chen was still a bit surprised.

"I’m sure there must be some other way." Ye Chen smiled and comforted them.

"Sigh, I’m not so sure about that." Xie Yingying sighed again.

"Yingying, I think even if we can’t watch it live, we can still watch the videos online, right? That way we save money too." Liu Tingting comforted herself.

"Mm, yeah. I was originally planning to spend the money on tickets, now I can save it to buy pretty clothes instead." Xie Yingying agreed.

Ye Chen knew that even though the two girls were saying that, it wasn’t what they really thought.

Even though he also counted as a boss at Star Media, he still had to discuss this with Su Wanyi.

To cheer the two girls up, Ye Chen changed the subject and chatted about other things.

The mood finally eased up a little.

After they finished eating, Xie Yingying and Liu Tingting were escorted back to school by Ye Chen.

Ye Chen then rode his e-bike towards Star Media.

Just as the three of them left the restaurant, a private room door behind them opened.

Turned out sitting inside were Liu Jun and a few of his men.

The conversation between Ye Chen and the two girls, Liu Jun and the others had heard clear as day.

He’d lost face at Ye Chen’s hands today, and he swore he would get it back.

By this time, Ye Chen had already arrived at the entrance of Star Media.

He parked his e-bike, then swaggered inside.

The security guard at the door saw Ye Chen and greeted him respectfully, "Hello, President Ye."

The people passing by saw this scene and all thought the security guard had gone nuts, showing such respect to a delivery guy.

Ye Chen nodded to the security guards, then went straight to the elevator.

On the way over, Ye Chen had already notified Wang Hao.

Right now, he was waiting in the meeting room.

Of course, Su Wanyi and the other staff were there too.

They were discussing matters related to the concert.

"President Ye, you’re here?" Wang Hao saw Ye Chen and quickly stood up to greet him.

He knew that without Ye Chen, there wouldn’t be the him of today.

"Ye Chen, how come you didn’t tell me you were coming?" Su Wanyi looked at Ye Chen and asked.

"I didn’t want to disturb your work, that’s all." Ye Chen scratched his head.

In fact, he hadn’t expected Su Wanyi to be at the company.

Had everything over there already been settled? Ye Chen wondered.

"How are the preparations for the concert going?" Ye Chen asked.

"We’ve pretty much arranged everything. All that’s left is to go to the venue and get familiar with it." Su Wanyi said with a smile.

"Mm, that’s good. With you here, I’m relieved." Ye Chen praised.

Su Wanyi’s pretty face flushed; after all, there were other people around.

Seeing her face turn red from shyness, Ye Chen found it amusing.

He patted Wang Hao on the shoulder and said, "This is your first concert, don’t get nervous. I really think highly of you."

"By the way, I heard people saying the concert tickets are already sold out."

"Yeah, I didn’t expect it either. I thought no one would come at all." Wang Hao scratched his head, embarrassed.

Honestly, he hadn’t expected the tickets to be this hot. After all, he was just a newly debuted singer.

How could he compare with those veteran singers?

"You punk, how can you have so little confidence in yourself?" Ye Chen laughed and scolded him.

Hearing that, Wang Hao went silent for a while.

He scratched his head and said, "Oh right, President Ye, these past few days I’ve been getting a lot of calls about commercial shows."

"And some people want to go through me to ask you for help."

Ye Chen of course knew exactly what those people wanted from him.

"Wang Hao, for calls like that, just help me turn them down directly. I don’t help just anyone."

Hearing Ye Chen say this, Wang Hao felt a warm current in his heart.

He thought Ye Chen was really too good to him—paying for his girlfriend’s medical bills,

writing songs for him so people could get to know him,

and now helping him hold a concert. Everything, everything was given by Ye Chen.

If there was no Ye Chen, there would be no Wang Hao today. It was this young man in front of him who had helped and made him.

There wasn’t a trace of arrogance in Wang Hao’s heart; all he wanted was to work hard, down-to-earth, to repay Ye Chen for this kindness.

"President Ye, I want to tell you..." Wang Hao stammered.
