[Exactly, don't scare people away! I want to see Dad roast them!]
[@Uncle Squid, hang in there!]
Uncle Squid was on the verge of tears; this was completely different from what he had expected!
But now he can't back down even if he wants to. His current situation has completely put him in a dilemma, and he can only grit his teeth and persevere.
However, to his despair, "your father" was still handling things with ease, while he was already struggling and had to cram at the last minute, starting to search through books all over the world.
As Uncle Squid collapsed and netizens enthusiastically watched the drama unfold, this amusing battle unexpectedly became a trending topic on Weibo.
Chapter 21
Shen Huai was a bit of a headache. He contacted Uncle Squid, but the man refused to remove the post without even asking the price.
Ye Cang relies on his strength and shouldn't have paid attention to such a clown.
However, no one knows that this newcomer is actually Lu Yang, and people naturally believe in authority. If their impression of Ye Cang is fixed, even if Ye Cang is strong, his future path will not be easy.
Ye Cang will sing another song like "Meow Meow" in his next performance.
Several solutions flashed through Shen Huai's mind, but before he could put them into action, he suddenly received a phone call.
"Hello Mr. Shen, I am Zhou, the assistant to the president of Dacheng Real Estate. Do you remember me?"
Shen Huai remembered that he was Li Luan's assistant. He had tried to poach Ye Cang with very generous offers, and he hadn't given up after being rejected.
After learning about the connection between Li Luan and Lu Yang, it no longer seemed strange.
"Hello, Assistant Zhou."
"I'm so sorry to bother you so late. Well, our company and the Music Association have jointly launched a 'Million New Singers' program. We have high hopes for Ye Cang's talent and hope to cooperate with you."
"Million New Singers" is an event initiated by the Music Association and sponsored by Dacheng Real Estate. It selects winners from all newly debuted singers of the year, and the winners can receive a million-dollar new singer production fee provided by Dacheng Real Estate.
For Shen Huai, money was secondary; what mattered was the perfect timing of this event. The official backing of the music association somewhat offset the negative impact caused by Uncle Squid.
Shen Huai and Ye Cang reached a preliminary agreement over the phone, but the specifics would be discussed after Ye Cang finished his match.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Huai breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, the software sounded another warning alarm at this moment. Shen Huai frowned, clicked on the trending topics, and was immediately speechless.
That familiar tone, that silly style—you can tell who it is just by looking at their toes.

Ye Cang was engrossed in his battle in his room when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. The thought of who would be knocking so late instantly cooled his initial enthusiasm.
He remembered Shen Huai's previous instructions and felt guilty. He wanted to pretend to be asleep, but then he heard Shen Huai's voice outside the door again.
"Open the door, I know you're not asleep."
Ye Cang: "..."
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door.
As soon as the door opened, their eyes met, and Shen Huai asked casually, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Ye Cang feigned ignorance: "What did you say?"
Shen Huai waved his phone; the three words "your dad" were prominently displayed on the trending topics list.
Ye Cang: "..."
He was still desperately trying to explain: "Hahaha, this trending topic is really... interesting..."
Seeing that he was truly stubborn and wouldn't admit defeat until he was faced with the truth, Shen Huai stopped beating around the bush: "I registered this phone number; do you think I didn't know it was you?"
Ye Cang: "..."
I was careless!
He retorted, "You didn't say I couldn't use a smaller number!"
Shen Huai adjusted his glasses: "So, you're blaming me for not making things clear beforehand?"
Ye Cang could almost feel the chill behind the glasses, and his survival instinct kicked in. He quickly admitted his mistake. However, after admitting it, he muttered resentfully, "Anyway, it's just a secondary account, nobody knows, so what does it matter?"
Shen Huai had long known his nature of "actively admitting mistakes but never repenting," and sneered: "But other people's alternate accounts are all hidden, unlike yours which is so high-profile. The speed at which you gained followers overnight is faster than your main account!!"
Ye Cang choked for a moment: "...I am exceptionally talented, what can I do?"
Shen Huai: "..."
He felt he had never managed such a mentally exhausting artist.
He decided to cut to the chase and deliver the decisive blow: "How's the song arrangement for your next match coming along?"
Ye Cang: "..."
Ye Cang, who had been so confident, suddenly wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
So, after Uncle Squid had thoroughly researched the information, he confidently posted a long Weibo post.
@YourDad: I'm done playing, I'm going to write a song. By the way, @UncleSquid, the sentence in the sixth line wasn't said by Lu Yang. Next time you want to act like a cultured person, do your homework first.
Uncle Squid almost spat a mouthful of blood onto the screen.
