The crowd imdiately marvelled as the bid soared directly from ten million to fifty million, instantly becoming a fixed price.
It was obviously not worth 50 million to sing a song, so no one increased the bid, as there was another round of bidding coming up. No one was foolish enough to continue bidding.
Gu Qibao was very curious. She was so startled that the cigarette in her hand almost dropped to the ground. She could not help but exclaim to Nangong Ran and others, "Damn, which idiot is so generous!"
Despite saying that, deep down all the girls were a little envious.
Before their envy could subside, they heard the host say, "Congratulations to the distinguished gentleman for taking tonight’s first confession ti with a high bid of 50 million. Let’s welco him."
The crowd applauded enthusiastically, extrely curious to see who this person was.
Gu Qibao and her group also stretched their necks to see who it was.
They saw soone co up to the stage and whisper sothing in the host’s ear. His face stiffened, seemingly shocked by what was said to him.
It was only after he had recovered that he resud his polite smile, "Now, the respected Mr. Di has commissioned our pianist to perform a song for a lady called Gu Qibao who is present tonight."
The crowd was in an uproar, Gu Qibao was stunned.
A look of embarrassnt spread across the host’s face. "Please let us all appreciate..."
The host noticeably paused before spitting out with difficulty the three words, "Calabash Kids. This song is dedicated to Miss Gu Qibao, may she be always happy."
Gu Qibao was shocked, the cigarette in her mouth dropped to the ground, Calabash Kids!
Damn! He’s the Calabash Kid, his whole family are Calabash Kids!
Before she could get angry, a lively lody started playing from the stage, "Calabash Kids, Calabash Kids, seven flowers on a single vine, la la la. We’re not scared of wind and rain..."
Gu Qibao went crazy.
The audience stood there, dumbfounded. Then, soone started laughing, and others joined in the excited and enthusiastic singing, "Ding dong dong, Calabash Kids, Ding dong dong, great abilities..."
Gu Qibao was so humiliated that it was hard to describe her feelings.
Nangong Ran, standing next to her, clapped excitedly, "This is good, this is love!"
Then she made a ghoulish gourd pose, singing along...
Gu Qibao felt like ending her friendship with Nangong Ran!
Everyone thought it was hilarious at first, but then the whole crowd got excited. Why?
Because the host cleverly comnted, "It seems that Mr. Di really cares about Miss Gu. Using his highest bid of 50 million to send such a jovial song to make Miss Gu smile, he hopes that Miss Gu can bravely face setbacks, laugh at life, and not be afraid of wind and rain."
Imagine a man spending such a high price not on a love song, but instead, a seemingly funny and yet aningful song.
Shouldn’t life be about happiness? Shouldn’t life be about strength? Regardless of whether it’s the wind or the rain, one needs to keep smiling.
This song is even more heartwarming than a love song!
Upstairs, Di Mingchen was utterly dumbfounded, Mingjue, you really aren’t pretentious, to choose this song, there is no hint of pretentiousness at all!
As talented as Di Mingjue, as eccentric as Di Mingjue, this really is playing an unconventional card!
Playing the card unconventionally, yet surprisingly achieving a better effect than convention.
Lord Di is indeed bold!
If this were written by so gossip entertainnt magazine, it would be another dramatic tale of a wealthy man courting his wife. He even ca up with a title instantly— "Love-stricken Di, throws millions for ’Priceless Calabash Kid’ to woo his beloved wife with a smile."
Damn, Di Mingchen felt he had the potential to be a journalist.
Di Mingzhe’s gaze at Di Mingjue shifted, couldn’ help but think if their mother had gotten it wrong back then?
Where are these affectionate kids? Even their courtship is completely chaotic, and now the Calabash Kids co into play...
