Chapter 171 My Daughter is Awesome
Reading Settings
Kong Pan casually remarked to her daughter, "Chairman Qian from Huilian Group visited me a couple of days ago."
Shi Shi had no idea who Director Qian was, so she was naturally completely bewildered.
"She gifted us a batch of new equipment. We hit it off really well. She even said that maybe we'd be destined to become in-laws."
Upon hearing Kong Pan's words, Shi Shi immediately became quick-witted.
As far as she knew, Fu Yingzhou's mother's surname was Qian.
"Is the chairperson of your Huilian Group a woman?"
Kong Pan rolled her eyes at her: "How novel! The leading logistics company in the country, Huilian, could its Qian Lina be a man?"
It's not surprising that Shi Shi didn't know; after all, she hadn't been in this world long, and the original owner's memories revolved around school and Fu Zhixu. How many business tycoons could she possibly know the names of?
"Hehehe." Shi Shi laughed somewhat guiltily. Kong Pan looked at her suspiciously: "What are you grinning about? You don't happen to know Chairman Qian, do you?"
Shi Shi quickly waved her hand: "How would I know them?"
But in her heart she was thinking, isn't Qian Lina Fu Yingzhou's mother? Could it be that she's hinting at something between her and Fu Yingzhou?
Kong Pan continued, "Chairman Qian has a son who is a few years older than you. He is very handsome and capable in his career. It would be wonderful if you could get to know him."
Shi Shi's lips twitched. Her mother was really taking this to heart. Little did she know, this man was Fu Yingzhou.
Just as she was thinking about how to respond, Shi Shi's phone suddenly rang. It was Fu Yingzhou calling. She hesitated for a moment, then answered. Fu Yingzhou's gentle voice came from the other end of the line: "Shi Shi, are you coming home tonight?"
Shi Shi instinctively agreed. After hanging up, Kong Pan asked curiously, "Who was it?"
Shi Shi said somewhat awkwardly, "A friend invited me." But in her heart, she was thinking that this matter was getting more and more interesting.
After dinner, Kong Fang took Shi Shi back to the villa. When Kong Pan went up to the study on the second floor, he saw two pieces of paper lying quietly on the table.
Are these two songs?!
She is a singer who came from humble beginnings. The reason she is now called a vocalist is because she only treats singing as a profession and has not developed a career in the entertainment industry.
She began her systematic studies after arriving in Kyoto. At that time, her younger sister found herself a professional teacher and later pursued further studies, so her music appreciation skills are quite good.
She was immediately drawn to the song "My Motherland and I." She gently picked up the paper and carefully read the lyrics, a powerful emotion welling up within her. Every line seemed to possess a magical quality, transporting her to a world brimming with patriotism. The melody flowed naturally through her mind, and she seemed to see the magnificent landscapes of her motherland, feeling the unity and strength of its people.
Kong Pan became increasingly excited as she read, and a surge of urge to sing the song welled up within her. She immediately took out her phone, intending to contact the orchestra and rehearse the song as soon as possible.
When her phone screen lit up, she realized it was getting late, so she had to suppress her excitement and think about getting this done as soon as she got to work tomorrow.
Just then, Shi Shi called: "I forgot to tell you when I left, I wrote two songs, you can choose one, they're on the desk in the study."
Kong Pan excitedly clutched the two sheets of paper and said, "Shishi, look at this song, 'Me and My Motherland,' it's so well-written! The lyrics are so moving. As I read it, I felt my chest filled with that love for my country." Kong Pan's voice was full of excitement.
Shi Shi laughed on the other end of the phone, "Mom, I hope you like it. Do you think it's suitable for a large chorus?"
Kong Pan nodded repeatedly, even though Shi Shi couldn't see it. "It's perfect. If this song were sung by a large chorus, it would definitely cause a huge sensation. I'll contact the orchestra as soon as I get to work tomorrow and rehearse it as soon as possible."
Shi Shi added, "Mom, there's another song that's also good. You should take a look; you might have a different feeling about it."
Kong Pan replied, "Okay, I'll take a closer look later. Shishi, your talent is truly a pleasant surprise for your mother. You are indeed my daughter! You are better than your father and me."
Shi Shi smiled and said a few more words before hanging up.
Kong Pan then picked up another song, intending to study it carefully, while still immersed in the awe-inspiring experience of "My Motherland and I".
Shishi was in an exceptionally good mood after returning home. Fu Yingzhou arrived home before her, wearing a satin silver-gray nightgown. The smooth fabric draped over his body like water, perfectly showcasing his elegant demeanor. The sharpness he exuded during the day's socializing and work was softened by the warm, dim lighting.
Sometimes Shishi feels like she and Fu Yingzhou aren't dating, but rather that she's keeping a grumpy little cat. It has to be said, however, that this relationship brings her a lot of joy.
Shishi sat down next to Fu Yingzhou and leaned into his arms. Fu Yingzhou then put his arm around her.
"How was your day?" Fu Yingzhou asked softly. Shishi then told him about her mother's high praise for "Me and My Motherland" and her plans to rehearse it as soon as possible. Fu Yingzhou's eyes were full of pride after listening, "I knew your song must be great. Your aunt is a professional, if she thinks it's good, it must be really good, but my favorite is still the one you wrote for me."
As he spoke, he gently kissed her forehead. Shishi smiled and looked up at him: "Which one?"
The songs Shi Shi wrote for Fu Yingzhou, "Night Dance" and "Let Him Land," are both very beautiful.
Fu Yingzhou was somewhat conflicted, but still frankly stated, "Rationally, I like 'Let Him Land.' But the song 'Night Dance' always makes me lose my mind."
After saying that, he leaned close to Shishi's ear, his warm breath falling on her, and whispered, "When will you wear a cheongsam again for me to see?"
"How dare you say that! I absolutely love that cheongsam, but you ruined it last time. Don't even think about making me wear it for you again!"
Fu Yingzhou looked regretful and helpless, sighed, and leaned back on the sofa: "I'm such a pitiful guy!"
"You think you're so pathetic! You have no idea, my mom even wanted to introduce me to you, saying you're handsome and successful."
Fu Yingzhou raised an eyebrow, deliberately keeping a straight face, "What's going on?"
Shishi poked his cheek: "Are you really unaware or just pretending? Chairman Qian from Huilian went to my mom's place and donated a large batch of equipment. The two of them hit it off immediately and acted like sisters."
Fu Yingzhou deliberately put on a serious face and asked Shishi, "So what did you tell Auntie?"
Shi Shi poked one of his cheeks, and not satisfied, she poked the other side: "I thought to myself, successful in his career, handsome, isn't this my boyfriend?"
