Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 56 - 55 Let’s Get Married!
56: Chapter 55 Let’s Get Married!
56 -55 Let’s Get Married!
Wang Chong knew that Zhang Yuanhao wanted to make Li Chen embarrass himself, so he immediately took on the role of the wingman.
“Brother Hao, you’re really putting him in a difficult spot.
I’ve seen news reports saying that many kids from the countryside can’t even afford education, how could they possibly know how to sing?”
Sun Chong wouldn’t be outdone and chimed in.
“It seems that our classmate Li Chen is doing quite well, not only can he afford education but he can also attend school in the city area.
I’m truly impressed!”
The group of girls who were fond of Zhang Yuanhao followed suit, jeering and laughing filled the entire private room.
Ye Chuxue saw that they were really going a bit too far and stood up angrily.
“Zhang Yuanhao, that’s enough.
If this goes on, we’re leaving!”
Zhang Yuanhao replied with an innocent face, “Lady Ye, we’re just stating a fact.
These days, telling the truth isn’t wrong, is it?”
Wang Chong also pitched in: “Exactly, Lady Ye, we just wanted him to sing a song.
Coming to KTV and not singing, then what is he here for?
Are ears just for decoration?”
Sun Chong’s girlfriend, Zhang Xin, also joined in the sarcasm: “Exactly, only hiding behind a woman, what a coward!”
Even a clay figure still has some temper!
Let alone, Li Chen is not the kind of clay figure that can be kneaded by others!
“Crack!”
With a sudden force between his two fingers, Li Chen crushed the wine glass in his hand to smithereens.
For a moment, the whole private room fell into an eerie silence as if enveloped by the quiet of death.
Li Chen glanced out of the corners of his eyes, scanning over the faces of Zhang Yuanhao and the others like an infrared scanner.
Zhang Yuanhao and the rest spoke fiercely, but none dared to meet Li Chen’s sharp gaze.
Who is Li Chen?
This is a man who could shatter the head of a stone lion with a single palm — if he were truly provoked, a slap from him could smash a head to smithereens, couldn’t it?
Thinking of this, a shiver ran down Zhang Yuanhao’s spine, and he stammered, “Li Chen, what…
what do you want to do?
This is a society ruled by law; murder is illegal!”
Li Chen gave him a look of disdain and spread his hands, saying, “The quality of this wine glass is no good, I’m truly sorry, sorry!”
“Let’s do this—I’ll sing a song as an apology to everyone!”
Having said that, without waiting for Zhang Yuanhao and the others to respond, Li Chen stood up and took the microphone.
He cleared his throat and began to sing with deep emotion.
A pristine wedding dress
Holding a bouquet of flowers
As beautiful as a fairy tale
[Note 1]
…
When they heard Li Chen sing, the expressions on Zhang Yuanhao and others’ faces couldn’t help but freeze.
“Whose song is this, how come I’ve never heard it?”
“Zhang Xin, aren’t you a music student?
Have you heard it?”
Zhang Xin shook her head and said, “No, I just searched on Baidu but couldn’t find it!”
“Could it be that this guy wrote the song himself?”
…
Zhang Yuanhao and the others were totally shocked; this guy could actually write songs?
Oh
My Love
Let’s get married
As he sang this line, Li Chen reached out his hand to Ye Chuxue as if he was proposing.
Seeing this, Ye Chuxue’s pretty face couldn’t help but blush.
So embarrassing, why does it feel like a marriage proposal is happening?
She hesitated for a moment, but still placed her little hand in Li Chen’s palm.
Li Chen took hold of Ye Chuxue’s soft hand and shared a tender gaze with her, then continued to sing.
Oh My Love, let’s get married
I will love you for a lifetime
I am willing to put everything down
To give you a happy home
As the song ended, Ye Chuxue’s pretty face was flushed, her smile blooming like a flower, and she couldn’t help but nod her head unconsciously.
Zhang Yuanhao and the others were all stunned into speechlessness, their faces filled with disbelief.
They originally thought Li Chen was just a simple-minded guy with well-developed limbs, a blockhead.
But they had never imagined that he was actually concealing his talents.
Zhang Yuanhao had planned to use “My Other Half” to express his love and propose to Ye Chuxue.
But Li Chen, on the other hand, went straight to the point with a “Let’s get married!”
Moreover, the song sung by Li Chen was flawless.
The lyrics were not particularly fancy, but the imagery was very strong, the tune was upbeat and romantic, most likely to stir the princess dreams deep within a girl’s heart.
Even the big names in the Chinese music industry could do no better.
The most, most, most important point was that this was all an on-the-spot original creation.
Writing the lyrics, composing the music, and singing, all completed within just a few short minutes, the process smoothly flowing from start to finish.
Li Chen put down the microphone, gave Zhang Yuanhao a faint smile, and said, “Mr.
Hao, how did you like the song of this country singer?
Would you like to give a comment?”
At this moment, Zhang Yuanhao felt as if his face had just been slapped hard, burning with pain.
Sun Chong had grown up with Zhang Yuanhao and, seeing Zhang Yuanhao being embarrassed by Li Chen, stood up out of habit and slammed his hand down on the table.
“Li Chen, are you looking for trouble on purpose?”
Li Chen glanced at him sideways and said, “Isn’t it you guys who are looking for trouble on purpose?”
“And don’t slam the table in front of me!”
Before his words even finished, he too slapped his hand down on the glass coffee table.
Instantly, the clean glass coffee table showed spiderweb-like cracks.
Then, the glass coffee table shattered on the spot, showering bright glass shards all over the floor, which scared a group of girls into screaming non-stop.
Seeing this, Sun Chong and the others felt a chill running down their spines.
They knew that the glass coffee table in the Emperor Hall was bulletproof.
Yet it was smashed with a single slap from Li Chen.
This was simply too unbelievable, right?
If that slap had landed on a person, wouldn’t it have reduced them to crumbs?
Sun Chong quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his lips turned blue and trembling slightly, and said, “I need to use the restroom urgently, I’ll be right back!”
Zhang Yuanhao hurriedly got up as well, his voice quivering as he said, “Wait for me, I’ll come with you!”
In the restroom, Sun Chong quickly lit a cigarette to calm his nerves.
Even Zhang Yuanhao, who usually didn’t smoke much, asked Sun Chong for one.
While lighting the cigarette for Zhang Yuanhao, Sun Chong’s hands couldn’t stop shaking.
“Brother Hao, that kid is a martial artist; he might not be easy to deal with!” Zhang Yuanhao took a harsh drag of the cigarette, his eyes suddenly turning cold.
“So what if he’s a martial artist?
It’s the new century.
No matter how strong the martial arts, they’re still afraid of guns.
Haven’t I seen martial artists before?
That lay disciple from the Shaolin Temple last year, not as formidable as Li Chen, still ended up shot coldly; the weeds over his grave must be one man tall by now, right?”
Hearing Zhang Yuanhao bring up the past, Sun Chong’s uneasy heart also began to relax a bit.
Last summer, Zhang Yuanhao took a liking to a girl from the Sixth Middle School.
But the girl completely refused to give in, and the impulsive Zhang Yuanhao prepared to take her by force, dragging her into his car.
Just as Zhang Yuanhao was about to forcefully have his way, a lay disciple from Shaolin Temple suddenly appeared to thwart his plans.
That disciple from Shaolin Temple was knocked down with a high-voltage stun gun by Sun Chong, and then a dozen people surrounded and beat him to death, leaving his body in the wilderness.
In the end, they pulled some strings at home, and found a scapegoat to take the fall for the crime of “excessive self-defense”.
“Brother Hao, are you saying we should do the same as last time, use a high-voltage stun gun on Li Chen and then…”
At this point, Sun Chong’s expression suddenly turned vicious as he made a throat-slitting gesture.
