’This girl has really gone to great lengths to get noticed.’
The instruntal for "Trajectory" soon began to play.
The other girls in the bar were very supportive. They took out their phones, turned on the flashlights, and waved them around to build up the atmosphere.
A mont later, the girl sat down in a corner of the sofa, and her voice rang out:
"How can I hide my sorrow, in the place where I lost you..."
The girl’s voice surprised Chen Jincheng. It had a very unique, fresh, and slightly smoky quality.
And when she sang, the girl seed to take on a mature and intellectual air.
A sense of familiarity suddenly washed over Chen Jincheng from his mories. ’Isn’t this Wang Qiqi, the famous nightclub singer from my past life?’
Her current outfit was completely different from how she dressed after she got famous, so he hadn’t recognized her at first.
’Looks like my luck is good today!’
If he recalled correctly, she had started to make a na for herself among cover song influencers in 2019 with her cover of "Ode to Solitude," eventually attracting over five million fans.
Moreover, she had a great figure, and since she was a nightclub singer, so netizens had comnted: "Third-rate environnt, second-rate voice, first-rate body, and a degenerate ."
The key was, this girl was the type of perforr who could hold down a venue, said to be able to make a whole club popular all by herself.
’It seems Extre Bar is already starting to attract talent.’
Extre Bar already had the influencer DJ Cen Ning. If they added an influencer resident singer, no other bar in Coastal City could compare.
Extre Bar was already packed to capacity every day; even the corner booths had to be reserved in advance.
After Wang Yuan had reported to him earlier, he had been thinking about upgrading Extre Bar into a high-end venue and setting a minimum spending requirent.
He planned to set the entry-level minimum spend at 10,000, while the BOSS and VIP booths would require a minimum spend of 20,000 to book.
After finishing her rendition of "Trajectory," Wang Qiqi looked at Chen Jincheng expectantly.
She had gone to great lengths to get in here tonight, pretending to lose a ga just for the chance to sing this one song. She didn’t want it all to be for nothing.
Chen Jincheng naturally saw the girl’s anticipation. He beckoned to her and patted the spot on the sofa next to him.
Seeing this, Wang Qiqi’s face lit up with joy. She hurried over to sit beside Chen Jincheng, then respectfully poured two glasses of alcohol and offered one to him. "Boss, let toast you."
When Xing saw the boss call the girl over, she felt a sense of crisis. She quickly took the glass. "The boss can’t drink tonight. I’ll drink on his behalf."
Wang Qiqi froze for a mont at this.
But seeing that the boss didn’t object, she clinked glasses with Xing and then downed hers as a sign of respect.
"You sing well!" Chen Jincheng praised, then asked, feigning ignorance, "What’s your na?"
"Wang Qiqi. Boss, you can just call Qiqi," Wang Qiqi replied hastily, her heart already starting to race.
’The boss is asking for my na. Does that an he wants to give a chance?’
Just as she hoped, Chen Jincheng asked, "Qiqi, do you want to join Second-Life Star?"
"I do!" Wang Qiqi answered, almost cutting him off.
Even though she had guessed it, hearing it with her own ears filled her face with delight.
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "Let’s add each other on WeChat first. I’ll send your contact to Sister Hong. You can go straight to Second-Life Star tomorrow to sign a contract with her."
Wang Qiqi hurriedly took out her phone, opened WeChat, and her hands trembled with excitent as she scanned Chen Jincheng’s QR code.
She felt a bit fortunate that she’d found out the boss was in this private room tonight and had mustered the courage to try her luck.
’Indeed, you never know if you’ll have a chance unless you try.’
After adding Wang Qiqi on WeChat, Chen Jincheng also shared her contact with Sister Hong.
Sister Hong was probably asleep by now, so there was no activity on WeChat.
After putting her phone away, Wang Qiqi deliberately scooted a little closer to Chen Jincheng, until there was almost no gap between them.
Chen Jincheng naturally noticed the girl’s move and just smiled. This, however, made Wang Qiqi bolder. She asked him, "Boss, can we film sothing together? I never get any traffic on my Tiao Yin."
"Go ahead," Chen Jincheng said with a smile, not refusing such a small request.
’This girl is pretty smart. She knows a video of her next to will definitely get so attention.’
Getting his approval, Wang Qiqi imdiately took out her phone and started recording a selfie video with him. During the process, she intentionally and unintentionally leaned even closer to Chen Jincheng, angling her body so that, at a glance, it looked like she was about to fall into his arms.
Chen Jincheng was perfectly aware of the girl’s little sche, so he simply reached out and pulled her into his embrace.
’No need for little tricks that way.’
Wang Qiqi obviously knew her little ploy had been discovered by the boss. She brazenly rested her head in his embrace and quickly finished her selfie video. After she was done, she took out her phone to work on it, showing no intention of leaving his arms, and just leaned against one side of his chest.
Xing saw this whole scene clearly and felt an inexplicable sense of the competitive pressure at Second-Life Star.
However, as a girl who knew how to play the ga, even though she knew exactly what Wang Qiqi was up to, she didn’t show any jealousy. Instead, she quietly leaned against the boss’s other side. As long as this Wang Qiqi didn’t try to push her away, she wouldn’t retaliate.
Yijin spotted Chen Jincheng with a girl in each arm and imdiately took out his phone to film. ’This is perfect material for clips!’
If it were any other influencer, getting fild with a girl in each arm and having it posted online would surely shatter their public image and lead to a public outcry.
But Brother Cheng was different. Posting it would actually bring him more traffic. People would even be extrely curious if this was another ’Miss Cheng’.
Wang Qiqi directly posted the video of the boss holding her in his arms to her Tiao Yin account with the caption: "My handso new boss."
After posting the video, she picked up a glass and poured more alcohol. "Boss, let toast you again!"
Xing once again intercepted the glass, clinked it with Wang Qiqi’s, and downed it in one go.
Wang Qiqi put down her glass, leaned back into Chen Jincheng’s embrace, and asked, "Boss, can I do covers of your songs ’Trajectory,’ ’Girl,’ and ’Can’t Help Falling in Love’?"
Chen Jincheng smiled. ’The girl didn’t really need to ask this question. Plenty of cover song influencers have already covered them. Now that she’s signing with Second-Life Star, there’s no reason she couldn’t.’
’Her asking was, naturally, another one of her little ploys.’
However, the other song he had, "Little Dimples," wasn’t suited for her voice. It required a sweeter tone.
So, for now, he didn’t have a new song to promote her with. He could only let her continue doing covers. He could, however, go back and check the songs of this world to see if any of the ones she made famous in his other life existed here.
If so, he could just use an Internet Celebrity Debut Card on her and make her famous instantly.
The other girls playing gas now also noticed that Wang Qiqi was in the boss’s arms, and they couldn’t help but show their envy. The girls who had snuck in also caught on and started to deliberately lose their gas. Instead of drinking, they would perform a talent.
So danced, others sang.
It was just that their dancing was much worse than Yinyin’s or Lin Qing’s.
Even their singing was a far cry from Jiang Xiaobai’s or Wang Qiqi’s. None of them managed to impress Chen Jincheng, so getting an opportunity like Wang Qiqi’s was impossible.
After all, when the sa opportunity is presented to you, you have to have the ability to seize it.
As the gas continued, however, Wang Qiqi lost again. This ti it wasn’t on purpose; she genuinely didn’t know how to play.
She went over to the DJ booth again, said sothing to the private room’s DJ, and then announced into the microphone, "I’ll sing another one of the boss’s songs. This is ’Girl,’ for everyone!"
A mont later, the instruntal for "Girl" began, and Wang Qiqi’s voice rang out once more:
"For you, I dare not slack off, no matter how tired, I must put on a disguise..."
Chen Jincheng had to admit, this girl really had a knack for singing. Her female version of "Girl," combined with her fresh, smoky voice, truly had a unique flavor.
Xing watched the confident Wang Qiqi sing and felt an even greater threat. By singing the boss’s songs, she was indirectly trying to curry favor with him.
But she couldn’t sing, so she was completely outmatched in that departnt.
However, she wasn’t stupid. She knew her own strengths. She knew what those lechers comnted when she wore her secretary outfit with stockings. So, she buried her head in the boss’s shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Boss, how about we play a ga?"
"What kind of ga?" Chen Jincheng asked with a smile.
Xing said coquettishly, "I’m a little drunk... You know how in the movies, the young secretary gets drunk on a business trip, and the kind boss takes her ho? Then he notices she’s too hot, so he helps her... lower her defenses... and manually cools her down..."
