Chapter 179: 0177 The toad wants to eat swan meat

Hearing the name Ye Qiu, the students present started discussing amongst themselves, after all, this was a name quite a few people had heard of.

"The Ye Qiu that Mu Wanqing mentioned, is he the ’One-Punch Superman’ Ye Qiu?" Many looked at each other, unsure of themselves.

"Here today, I want to dedicate the last song ’Devoted Love’ to him."

Mu Wanqing gently closed her eyes, soft music began to flow slowly, she stood in the center of the stage, all the lights shining upon her alone, illuminating her striking features beautifully.

The whole venue fell silent, everyone listening intently to this last song, to Mu Wanqing’s solo confession.

Devoted Love!

Nobody was foolish enough to think it was just a song, more people conjectured that Mu Wanqing was trying to express her feelings for the man who had saved her through the song.

It was a song of confession.

Mu Wanqing confessing was definitely big news, and it was certain that tomorrow’s entertainment headlines would be dominated by this sensational news.

However, the audience didn’t engage in heated discussions, they were listening quietly, wanting to hear the song until the end.

As the stage curtains closed and before the crowd started to disperse, Ye Qiu was hastily pulled away by Shen Mengchen, Shangguan Hong, and Shangguan Mingyue, and taken back to the Goddess Villa.

"Spill it, how do you know the big star Mu Wanqing?" Ye Qiu was surrounded and interrogated by the three women.

"Miss, it’s purely coincidence, I don’t even know her at all," Ye Qiu defended himself weakly.

"You don’t know her? She’s confessing to you and you say you don’t know her? Ye Qiu, I never realized, you’re quite charming, even my idol is confessing to you," Shen Mengchen spoke with a pointed tone. To call it jealousy wasn’t entirely accurate, yet it wasn’t completely off the mark either, mixed with irritation. Overall, Shen Mengchen felt complicated, a feeling she herself couldn’t understand.

Shangguan Hong and Shangguan Mingyue were much friendlier, merely watching Ye Qiu silently, waiting for him to explain.

Seeing the persistent stance of the three women to get to the bottom of this, Ye Qiu had no choice but to recount his encounter with the hijackers on the plane.

After hearing Ye Qiu’s explanation, everyone understood why a big star like Mu Wanqing would confess to an ordinary person like Ye Qiu, it turns out Ye Qiu had played the hero and rescued the damsel in distress!

Even the three women could imagine the scene on the plane, the hijackers being arrogant, trying to rob Mu Wanqing of her valuables, and even getting physically aggressive. Then, Ye Qiu suddenly steps in and subdues the hijackers with handsome bravado, from there on, Mu Wanqing’s heart was swayed by Ye Qiu.

This kind of plot, familiar from TV dramas and novels, was enacted in real life by their own Ye Qiu.

"Hmph, you big womanizer, you manage to attract women wherever you go," Shen Mengchen said disdainfully after Ye Qiu explained clearly. The women let him off the hook, but Shen Mengchen still gave him a stern look of contempt.

Deep down, Shen Mengchen didn’t realize that not only had Mu Wanqing developed feelings for Ye Qiu, she, Shen Mengchen, felt the same, although she had yet to discover it herself or even accept it.

As the proud daughter of the Shen family, she likened herself to a swan with its neck held high, pure and unattainable. She would never lower her standards to make a move like Mu Wanqing had that night.

Of course, when it came to Mu Wanqing’s confession, Shen Mengchen also felt a tinge of envy. Mu Wanqing had been braver than her, but that slight jealousy was quickly drowned by Shen Mengchen’s proud ego.

"Ye Qiu, since Mu Wanqing has confessed to you, you should hurry and see her. She came here for a concert just for you. Maybe by being with her, you could become a big star tomorrow, too," said Shen Mengchen, unable to resist the urge to tease Ye Qiu further, perhaps due to being perturbed by Mu Wanqing’s confession that day, but as Mu Wanqing was still her idol, she couldn’t bring herself to hate her, so she continued to taunt Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu simply shook his head. He wasn’t foolish enough to run to Mu Wanqing; meeting such a big star and all the high-profile attention that came with it was not what Ye Qiu wanted.

"Mu Wanqing is my idol; I want you to get an autograph for me," Shen Mengchen stated, tossing her white jacket to Ye Qiu.

This..." Ye Qiu looked at the jacket in his hands, which carried a faint scent, and was speechless. Wasn’t this making things difficult for him? He was already at the center of attention because of Mu Wanqing, and if he went to ask for an autograph now, he would definitely make headlines tomorrow, perhaps with a large picture accompanying the story.

"Absolutely not," Ye Qiu resolved.

Seeming to notice Ye Qiu’s intentions, Shen Mengchen huffed, hands on her hips, and threatened, "If you don’t go, I’ll tell Mu Wanqing you’re here, and then the reporters will follow..."

Hearing Shen Mengchen’s threat, Ye Qiu had no choice but to capitulate. This mistress was tougher—it was just an autograph, so be it!

After the concert, many students were discussing the confession incident involving Mu Wanqing. A single song was enough to signify Mu Wanqing’s affection for Ye Qiu.

A big star fell in love with the campus ’One-Punch Superman’?

This topic will probably blow up the entertainment industry tomorrow.

Just as Ye Qiu approached Mu Wanqing with the air of someone braving a mountain of swords or descending into a sea of flames, the doorbell of the goddess villa rang.

Niu Yinyin hurriedly ran to open the door, calling out "lollipop".

When she opened the door, Niu Yinyin was stunned because she did not recognize the beautiful sister standing before her.

"Who are you looking for?" Niu Yinyin asked, puzzled.

"Excuse me, does Ye Qiu live here?" Mu Wanqing asked with a smile, looking at the cute little girl in front of her.

"Brother Ye Qiu, a beautiful sister is looking for you," Niu Yinyin called out, tilting her head back, sucking on a lollipop.

"This late and a beauty is looking for you, Ye Qiu, have you been up to mischief outside, and now they’ve tracked you down?" Shen Mengchen huffed, giving Ye Qiu a fierce glare.

Ye Qiu was also somewhat bemused, how could there be a beautiful woman looking for him at this time?

Ye Qiu stood up and walked to the door, where he saw Mu Wanqing standing in the wind with her long hair blowing, wearing a yellow jacket, and he was momentarily taken aback.

"Hero, we meet again," Mu Wanqing revealed a sweet smile.

Ye Qiu was taken aback, and the three women inside the hall, seeing that Ye Qiu stood at the door without speaking, asked, "Who is it?"

Shen Mengchen walked over, and when her gaze fell on the ethereal Mu Wanqing, she was also stunned. They were just discussing Mu Wanqing, and now she appeared at their front door.

"I hope I’m not bothering you, could I have a word with Ye Qiu alone?" Mu Wanqing looked at Shen Mengchen, her tone carrying a hint of a request.

Shen Mengchen couldn’t help but nod.

Ye Qiu and Mu Wanqing walked together on the small path through the woods inside the villa, followed by two bodyguards and Mu Wanqing’s male assistant.

"I didn’t come here for any other reason, just wanted to thank you in person."

"You left so quickly after getting off the plane, I didn’t have the chance to thank you." Mu Wanqing was the first to break the silence.

"No need to thank me, I would’ve done the same for anyone," Ye Qiu said honestly.

"Oh." A hint of disappointment flashed in Mu Wanqing’s eyes, and after being silent for a while, she suddenly looked up and asked, "Was that girl just now your girlfriend?"

Ye Qiu shook his head.

"Alright, I should go back now, thank you." Mu Wanqing said unexpectedly, preparing to leave.

"Ahem... wait..." Ye Qiu called out to Mu Wanqing, who turned around.

"Could you sign an autograph for me? The girl from before wants one."

Mu Wanqing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled lightly and said, "Sure."

Ye Qiu pulled out a pen from the folds of Shen Mengchen’s clothes and Mu Wanqing casually wrote down her name.

"There we go." Mu Wanqing said after she finished writing, and handed the pen back to Ye Qiu.

"I hope we’ll meet again." Mu Wanqing waved, turned, and left with her bodyguards and assistant. During this short encounter, they hadn’t said much, just a few brief exchanges.

Mu Wanqing had not made any kind of confession, which was a relief for Ye Qiu.

However, even having spent just a moment with a big star like Mu Wanqing, he felt a sense of loss in his heart.

This might be the feeling of a toad lusting after swan meat, and the swan meat has flown away.
