Chapter 609: Chapter 609: Night Monarch Qing’s Will to Live 4_1
Master Gu had already arranged for someone to pick her up at the airport. Upon her arrival at the airport door, he opened the car door for Madam Shen to get in.
“Yu Ci, you have no place to stay in the capital, would you like to stay with me at our old home? I haven’t changed a thing, the decor, the furniture, everything is still the same as before we divorced…”
Yet, Madam Shen just ignored Master Gu.
The Zhuo family also sent a car to pick up Master Zhuo. Madam Shen directly accompanied Master Zhuo and got into their car, leaving Master Gu in a cloud of exhaust fumes.
Madam Shen’s return to the capital this time was at the invitation of the National Music Association, to conduct a huge choir at the Presidential Inauguration Dinner. The original conductor had been hospitalized with sudden cardiovascular disease, and no one else dared to step in at such a critical moment, hence the chairman of the National Music Association personally called Madam Shen to ask her to come.
That same evening, Madam Shen met some of her students in a classy restaurant.
Before retiring, Madam Shen was a professor at the best music academy in the capital, K University, and was also the president of the National Music Association. Today many influential figures in the music industry are her students.
When Madam Shen arrived, the large private room of the restaurant was already filled with people. As she walked in, everyone got up and called her “teacher.”
Seeing her students made Madam Shen quite happy. She chatted with each student who came to greet her before sitting down to join them for dinner.
Madam Shen also called Ye Xingguang, inviting her to dine at the restaurant.
Ye Xingguang drove herself that day. She took her car to the front of the restaurant using GPS, spotted a parking space, and was about to pull into it when a luxurious nanny car beat her to it.
Depressed at being unable to take the parking space, Ye Xingguang sulked.
What made her feel even worse was that Xia Yanyan was being escorted from the nanny car by a group of bodyguards, as though she was a celebrity.
Following Xia Yanyan out of the car was Ye Li. The two of them, clad in heels, quickly entered the restaurant under the escort of the bodyguards
Ye Xingguang, irritated that her parking skills paled in comparison, drove around in circles unable to find a parking spot and ended up waiting at the entrance, hoping that someone would leave and free up a spot. Otherwise, she didn’t know where she could park.
After entering the restaurant, Xia Yanyan went straight for the private room in which Madam Shen was dining. A waiter guided her as someone had already informed her about Madam Shen’s whereabouts.
In the private room, Madam Shen was discussing current affairs with her students.
Madam Shen looked at a man in his forties and asked, “Chen Fengyu, how are you?”
Before Chen Fengyu could respond, someone else answered for him: “Teacher Shen, Chen Fengyu is now quite renowned. The songs he has written have made many stars famous and now many well-known singers are lining up for him to write songs for them. He has become a big shot in the music industry.”
Fengyu, who was usually lavished with praise, didn’t dare to call himself a big shot in front of Madam Shen. He modestly shook his head, “Honorable teacher, please don’t listen to them. I’m just doing okay. How can I dare call myself a big shot in front of you? If it weren’t for your guidance, I would have probably faded off the scene a long time ago.”
Madam Shen told him not to be so modest, then asked about someone else: “And how about Zhang Yuhuan?”
