The Strongest Face-Slapping King in the City-Chapter 785: Don’t Give It to Us (Second Update)

"Hello, is this Professor He Shanyuan? I’m Han Qiguang from X Music Academy, and I need to report an issue to you, something that has made me very angry!"

Han Xuguang was indeed very angry.

A musical prodigy was actually studying art!

How could this be tolerated!

So what if Tsinghua is prestigious? If you don’t appreciate talent, give them to our X Music Academy. We don’t mind at all, not one bit! Come on, send them over to us!

And the one receiving the call, He Shanyuan, was completely baffled!

X Music Academy?

There was no interaction between the people there and those from Tsinghua!

The X Music Academy is in ZJ province, they had absolutely nothing to do with any major music events, not a single penny of connection!

Very angry?

What’s the situation?

"You speak!" He Shanyuan said urgently.

After all, Han Qiguang was also a professor, with solid strength, on par with him, so there was no trace of arrogance!

Han Qiguang took a deep breath and continued, "I am very disappointed with Tsinghua’s judgment, you know."

He Shanyuan had a baffled look on his face!

What was all this about?

Please, can you say it all at once?

What’s wrong with our Tsinghua?

How have we disappointed you? You’re from X Music Academy, completely unrelated to us!

"And then?" He Shanyuan asked!

"We both deal with music, and as teachers, it’s our dereliction of duty to overlook any prodigy, as educators we disseminate knowledge, take on students, and resolve doubts."

The angry tone in Han Qiguang’s voice was driving He Shanyuan mad.

Will you just get to the point? It’s the middle of the night, and you’re calling me to talk about this?

Are you a music teacher or a language teacher? Do I really need you to explain the ’Teacher’s Words’ to me again?

Are you sick?

Or has your brain taken in water?

"Professor Han, can you be clearer? I don’t understand what you’re saying!" He Shanyuan was pissed.

Since the start of the term, he had been trapped by a project in his hands.

Arranging music, for an entire month, even with his good temper, he was driven to madness, and now a call, so out of the blue, he really wanted to cut through the internet cable to kill Han Qiguang. Could he just speak plainly?

Han Qiguang also heard the dissatisfaction in He Shanyuan’s voice and immediately spoke in a lower tone, "Tonight, I saw a prodigy from your academy. Perfect pitch, impeccable rhythm, what angered me is that he’s actually from the art major. Tell me, what is Tsinghua doing? If you don’t want him, fine, but hand him over to our X Music Academy!"

"Ah? A music prodigy went to the art major? What’s going on?"

He Shanyuan was instantly bemused!

Han Qiguang had high standards, and as a professor at X Music Academy, the people he was interested in were definitely extraordinary.

It didn’t make sense, with such great musical talent, why didn’t he know about it?

Immediately, He Shanyuan asked, "What’s the name of that person?"

"Zhang Fan!" Han Qiguang squeezed out the name through clenched teeth!

Hearing the name Zhang Fan, He Shanyuan was stunned!

"Zhang Fan?"

"Right, him! I even have a video of his performance, do you want to see it? I want to see if your Tsinghua Music Department really can’t appreciate such a talent!" Han Xuguang shouted angrily!

A wry smile appeared on He Shanyuan’s face all of a sudden!

Zhang Fan, how could he possibly forget that name!

He had taken a liking to Zhang Fan at the opening ceremony!

Those songs had truly moved him!

But before he could find Zhang Fan, he had left Tsinghua, and started working on the current project in his hands!

How could that guy possibly choose the art department?

This is ridiculous!

"Professor He Shanyuan, are you there?" Han Qiguang roared angrily!

Damn it, not a single reaction? What’s going on?

He Shanyuan quickly snapped back to attention, "Thank you, Professor Han, I am aware now. I will go back and deal with it immediately—rest assured, we at Tsinghua will never let a talent slip through our fingers."

After saying that, He Shanyuan immediately hung up the phone and without delay, began dialing another number swiftly.

"Xiao Xu, book me a ticket back to Capital City, the earliest flight possible!"

"Professor, we are just about done with our project, it can be completed tomorrow morning. If you leave now, it is going to delay us for quite some time!"

He Shanyuan’s face tensed up, remembering the hard work of the past month; he gritted his teeth and then said, "Start work at five in the morning, notify everyone."

"What? Five o’clock? Professor, it’s almost midnight!"

"Enough with the nonsense. Otherwise, I’ll fly to Capital City first thing in the morning. Anyway, I’m not the one who’s most anxious if the project isn’t finished," He Shanyuan said coldly.

"Fine, fine, fine, as you wish!"

...

Meanwhile, Zhang Fan was having an absolute blast!

One rendition of "Faded" got everyone all fired up.

With everyone egging him on, Zhang Fan sang two more songs.

One was "Exaggerated," which moved people to tears!

Another, "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark," completely blew up the atmosphere in the bar!

Countless people crazily swung their glasses, swaying in the dance floor, while countless girls’ eyes shimmered with hints of spring, shouting incessantly.

"Another song, one more song!"

Just as Zhang Fan was about to put down the microphone, everyone started to chant.

Including Wang Xiaoqin!

She had only heard about how Zhang Fan rocked the opening ceremony with his singing.

Previously, she had been very skeptical about what she heard!

But now, she was truly convinced.

Even though she still harbored a sliver of animosity towards Zhang Fan, when it came to singing, good or bad, she could tell right away!

Zhang Fan rolled his eyes, picked up the microphone, and bellowed: "You bunch of exhausting little goblins, give me a break, my throat’s gonna start smoking!"

Zhang Fan really felt like crying!

Three songs, all of them extremely demanding on his voice, especially the last one, "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark"—it was like he was screaming for his life!

Go on again? Impossible!

After all the strong drinks he had, Zhang Fan wished he could jump into an ice cellar! If he continued singing, it would kill him!

"Bro Fan, we’ll let you off for today, hahaha!"

"Awesome. Three songs, I’m good!"

Whether it was the people on-site or the members of the ’face-slapping squad’ in the live stream, they all laughed heartily.

"Since no one’s singing, I’ll do it, I want to sing too!" shouted a member of the face-slapping squad, jumping onto the stage.

"Holy shit, can you finish ten pints of beer?" another person quickly yelled, knowing the rules of Gu’s Bar!

"What? Then I won’t sing, no singing for me!"

"Hahaha, what a coward!"

The group burst into laughter.

"Hey Zhang Fan, having a great time, eh!" Wang Rui approached leisurely, leading Li Li by the hand.

The moment he saw Li Li, Zhang Fan instantly knelt down!

Good heavens, Li Li teacher, this goblin, Old Wang really dared to bring her to the bar?

Instantly, countless gazes fell upon Li Li.

The flames in their eyes danced unstoppably!
