Liu Feng made a shushing gesture, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Seeing this, Tang Yiyi took a step forward and approached Liu Feng.
This time, he would walk ninety-nine steps, and she would take the last one.
Tang Yiyi, with red eyes, reached out to take the bouquet of flowers from Liu Feng's hand.
"What are you doing?" Liu Feng said coldly.
Tang Yiyi was stunned.
"Aren't these flowers meant for me?"
"Heh." Liu Feng let out a meaningful cold chuckle.
"Do you think you're worthy?"
Liu Feng's family had elders who had a business alliance with the Ye family. Their strength and status far surpassed the Tang family, and they didn't put the Tang family in their eyes at all.
Liu Feng's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Tang Yiyi.
Tang Yiyi's eyes widened, her lips trembling, and she stammered.
"You... you... what did you say?"
Hearing this, Liu Feng's smile became even more mocking.
"You don't understand? Then I'll make it clearer."
"With my status and position, Liu Feng, how are you, Tang Yiyi, worthy of me? You're not the only woman in this world, and a heartless, unrighteous person like you is not worth it."
Boom!
Tang Yiyi's mind exploded, leaving her completely blank.
The people around cast contemptuous glances.
"That was embarrassing. She really thought the whole world liked her."
"Someone with such poor character deserves this."
"I thought Young Master Feng was foolish earlier, but now I think he's incredibly cool!"
...
Amidst the surrounding mockery, Liu Feng placed the bouquet on Qian Lili's desk.
"Um... I got front-row tickets for 'Voice of the World.' Want to go together tonight?"
"Wow, a date, a date..."
...
Amidst the cheers, Liu Feng turned around with feigned composure and left.
Qian Lili was stunned for a moment by the sudden turn of events, then she beamed shyly like a blooming flower.
She hugged the bouquet and excitedly ran out of the classroom.
"Sisters, look! Liu Feng gave me flowers and asked me to watch 'Voice of the World' tonight. Does he like me?"
Lin Keke rolled her eyes at Qian Lili.
"He gave you flowers, so of course he likes you. You're so happy you've gone silly."
"But didn't Liu Feng like Tang Yiyi? Why did he suddenly switch his affection to me?"
Shu Ya explained, "That time at the martial arts hall, Liu Feng lost to Xiao Min. Tang Yiyi refused to kneel at all costs. I guess Liu Feng saw through Tang Yiyi then. Speaking of which, you should thank Xiao Min."
"If she hadn't made such a fuss, we wouldn't have known how disgusting Tang Yiyi was."
Qian Lili said, "That's true. Tang Yiyi, that green tea bitch, only someone as fierce as Tang Xiao Min could deal with her."
Although Qian Lili had been beaten initially, she couldn't bring herself to truly hate Tang Xiao Min at this moment.
Instead, she felt quite grateful.
Lin Keke's eyes lit up.
"Xiao Min is participating as a guest in 'Voice of the World,' along with the world-renowned electronic music god, Aike! My idol!"
"What are we waiting for? Let Xiao Min get us a few tickets too, and we'll go. It would be even better if we could get a photo with Aike."
...
Tang Xiao Min obtained front-row tickets for Lin Keke and Shu Ya respectively. Lin Keke immediately posted them on her social media, bragging shamelessly.
Lin Keke even gained a little fame on Kuaidou thanks to her photo with Tang Xiao Min.
Unable to bear the ridicule, Tang Yiyi quietly left the classroom and hid in the school's small garden.
Now, wherever she went, she felt people's gazes piercing her like thorns, and everything they said seemed to be scolding her.
Ring, ring, ring...
The phone rang. Tang Yiyi was startled. She had been afraid to even answer calls recently.
When she saw that the caller ID was her third brother, she felt a little less scared.
"Third Brother..." Her voice came out choked with sobs.
"Yiyi, are you crying?"
"Third Brother, I really didn't seduce Second Brother like they said online. I really didn't know he would tell Mom and Dad that he liked me..."
"It was all Tang Xiao Min deliberately posting it online to harm me. I really didn't, you have to believe me, Third Brother, sob sob..."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.
"Third Brother believes you. Don't be sad. I'll be back as soon as I finish my work handover. I absolutely won't let Tang Xiao Min mess up the Tang family."
"Third Brother, please come back quickly. Dad and Mom fought at home last night because of Tang Xiao Min, and Second Brother moved out to the company. Our home doesn't feel like a home anymore."
"Yiyi, wait for me. It won't be too long."
"Okay."
This phone call gave Tang Yiyi a glimmer of hope.
Tang Xu and Tang Ye were twins, but their personalities were vastly different.
Tang Ye was lively, while Tang Xu was the opposite, always silent.
Tang Ye pursued a career in the entertainment industry.
Tang Xu chose to become a doctor, possessing remarkable medical skills at a young age.
Moreover, he doted on Tang Yiyi.
Tang Xu's imminent return was undoubtedly a great reassurance to Tang Yiyi.
Tang Yiyi scrolled through her social media and discovered that Lin Keke and the others had made plans to watch "Voice of the World."
Tang Xiao Min had not only stolen her status in the Tang family and taken her mother and eldest brother, but she had also stolen her friends.
Her current predicament was all Tang Xiao Min's doing.
Tang Yiyi hated her with all her might.
She clenched her fists so tightly that the sharp nails digging into her palms were unnoticed.
Suddenly, she noticed that Ye Lingyun had also posted on social media about attending "Voice of the World."
Tang Yiyi suddenly remembered being expelled. Liu Feng had been hospitalized at the time, so the expulsion must have been issued by Ye Lingyun.
But she had clearly heard Tang Xiao Min say that she was the one who had expelled her.
Why would Ye Lingyun side with Tang Xiao Min? Could it be? He was interested in Tang Xiao Min?
So he was helping Tang Xiao Min to deal with her!
Tang Yiyi tried hard to recall the interactions between Ye Lingyun and Tang Xiao Min, various scenes flashing through her mind.
The more she thought, the more she felt there was something fishy going on.
Tang Yiyi couldn't sit still. She called Tang Zhongcheng, used a pretext to get tickets for "Voice of the World," and went to the venue.
She refused to believe that Tang Xiao Min wouldn't make any mistakes.
At the "Voice of the World" recording studio, the production team had spared no expense to create a lavish stage.
Tang Xiao Min, as a guest, collaborated on a song with the world-renowned electronic music god, Aike. Su Dan Novel Network.
Aike was a foreigner, with golden hair, an English-like face, and a height of over six feet, dressed entirely in black.
During performances, he liked to wear a black mask, exuding an air of mystery.
Aike performed the DJ set live, while Tang Xiao Min took on the lead vocals.
She wore a black dress today and, as required by the production team, donned high heels.
Her long black hair flowed, moving as if in a breeze, projecting an aura that rivaled that of the legendary man behind her.
As the music began, Tang Xiao Min's ethereal and piercing voice was like a celestial melody.
Instantly, it transported the audience into a wondrous state.
The electronic music had a strong rhythm, and the entire venue erupted. A large crowd swayed to the beat in front of the stage.
The scene was like a wild dance of spirits.
