At this moment, Bai Yaning whispered to Li Mingzhe beside her, “What did he mean by ‘previously wronged and looked down upon’?”
“So here’s the thing,” Li Mingzhe, who by now had understood the general ins and outs, explained the whole situation to Bai Yaning. After laying out the details, Li Mingzhe raised his thumb and said, “Miss Ice Princess, with Brother Hao’s magnanimity, really, no one comes close. Before, everyone was making fun of him. He could have lashed out but just let bygones be bygones once they apologized. If it had been me, I would’ve fought them tooth and nail! Ah, people really are different. Besides Brother Wen Bin, Brother Hao is now the person I admire the most!”
After listening, Bai Yaning looked at Wang Hao and smiled with pursed lips.
Great minds are above petty grievances, this guy really knows how to play his cards right.
At that point, Wu Jun led a few guys taking turns toasting Wang Hao, and soon it was Yu Junpeng’s turn. He held his cup and said with some embarrassment, “Brother Hao, I won’t say much, just begging you to go easy on me this time. I’ll drink this cup down!”
“Haha, old Wu, listen to you,” Wang Hao stretched out his hand and embraced his shoulder, saying,
“We’re all classmates here. What’s past is past. We’re here at the reunion to have fun! Don’t worry, when I go back, I’ll have a talk with Teacher Li Fei, get him to take you under his wing. Guaranteed, you won’t be left out!”
Yu Junpeng gave a salute, “Brother Hao, no more words needed, I’ll drink another!”
Long Yi and the others nodded in agreement, with Qiangwei saying, “So, turning clouds with one hand and rain with the other is just like this, huh?” Long Yi laughed, “That’s the charm of Brother Hao, you just have to respect it!” Jiu Miao chuckled softly, “Nonsense, otherwise, would we support him like this? Remember the Heavenly Gods incident? From that, I could tell Brother Hao is a really broad-minded guy!”
Only now did the reunion finally take on the look of a proper gathering, with everyone drinking merrily. Bai Yaning was also in good spirits, not rejecting anyone who asked for autographs or photos. There was just one condition, not to leak it outside.
The classmates all agreed—a sure sign they understood that if today’s events were to spread, the resulting entertainment would be enormous…

“Brother Hao, eh, why didn’t I date you back then?” Yin Chunyan, holding her cup, said with a grin, “I regret it now, hehe. But without saying much more, your performance today, Brother Hao, I have one word for you: respect! I believe with our big star’s taste, it couldn’t be wrong. Ah, I should’ve married early!” Her words out, the classmates began to tease, “Haha! Empress Dowager Yin regrets it!” “Empress Dowager, it’s not too late! If it comes to it, just include another in the harem!”
“Go to hell, all of you!” Yin Chunyan placed her hands on her hips, “Do any of you want to be part of my harem?!”
The boys all nodded together, “Yes!”
“Come on, drink up!” Wang Hao wouldn’t dare to engage with such a topic lightly. Drinking is the best policy!
After drinking with Yin Chunyan, Xia Xueqi came over, holding a cup, and said, “Brother Hao, I’m quite heartbroken today.”
Wang Hao, “Ah? What happened?”
“Before, I was thinking of pursuing you,” Xia Xueqi said with a smile, “You’re so outstanding, and I’m single—chasing you would be worth it! But then you brought Miss Ice Princess with you, and now I guess there’s no hope for me in this lifetime. Here, let’s drink one—first to acknowledge your help before, and second, to compensate for my heartbreak!”
The male classmates encouraged, “Give her a hug! Give her a hug!”
Ah, how embarrassing would that be? Our big star is right here…
“Give her a hug then,” Ice Princess laughed behind her hand, “What’s to be afraid of?”
“Come and get a hug!” Wang Hao stood up with a laugh, arms wide open, “Big brother will take care of you!”
“Brother Hao!” Xia Xueqi gave him a big hug, then lifted her cup, “Cheers!”
Just then, the atmosphere peaked, but Wang Hao caught sight of Diao Hongru sitting in the corner, silent, and he sighed lightly. Then he waved him over, “Old Diao, don’t just sit there, come on, you and I have to drink too!”
“Brother… Brother Hao, I…” Diao Hongru, wishing he could shrink into the floor with embarrassment, said as he approached, with a face full of unease, “I… I’m too ashamed to even toast with you…”
“Ah, well, the thing is, what you did before was really not cool,” Wang Hao nodded, now that the reunion was back to normal, he was not really going to be harsh on Diao Hongru, “But you know, I’m not petty. From now on, just be a decent person. We’re all classmates after all,” he said, patting Diao Hongru’s back hard, “Come on, drink up!”
“Brother Hao!” Diao Hongru burst into tears right then and there, “Brother!”
The guys around were also watching with tears in their eyes. To live a life like Wang Hao, there probably aren’t many like him in this world.
After three rounds of drinks and five flavors of dishes, today’s episode took a roller-coaster turn. Everyone truly had their eyes opened, especially since the big star Miss Ice Princess actually made an appearance, each clearly getting drunk!
Soon, everyone started taking turns drinking one-on-one. Only then did Wang Hao ask, “Ice Princess, what’s the deal with Jiang Feng, anyway?”
“Here’s what happened,” Bai Yaning took a sip of her drink and then said, “He heard the song ‘Bubble’ that you wrote and composed. He was very surprised, so he came to ask me if you could write two songs for him.”
Huh? Write songs? For Jiang Feng? This guy likes to sing?
“He wants to be a singer?” Wang Hao’s eyes widened. “I’ve never noticed before!”
“You haven’t had much contact with him, so you don’t really know him,” Bai Yaning smiled and said, “He’s always wanted to be a star singer, but as you know, talent is very important for singing. Unfortunately, his voice isn’t quite suitable—it’s a bit gruff. But there’s nothing he can do; it’s his one passion. He’s always loved singing since he was young, but because his voice isn’t great, he’s never really found a good way to pursue it.”
“I see,” Wang Hao stroked his chin and thought for a moment, “That’s not entirely impossible. But considering how rich he is, couldn’t he just throw money at it until he gets a few good songs? It shouldn’t be hard for him to debut.”
“Of course, he’s splashed the cash,” Bai Yaning sighed, “The guy is a ‘No Shortage of Money’ kind of person. He doesn’t blink at throwing out tens or hundreds of millions. But the problem is that the songs don’t work. They just don’t suit him. When he sings the songs they’ve written, it sounds like a wolf howling. I can’t stand it! I’ve tried advising him before, but he doesn’t want to give up.”
“No way? He’s off-key when he sings?” Wang Hao was shocked and incredulous, “Let’s make this clear beforehand, if he’s tone-deaf, there’s nothing I can do. Quality of the song can’t solve that!”
A tone-deaf howling wolf is going to sound the same no matter what song he sings. This he truly couldn’t fix.
“If he were tone-deaf, we wouldn’t even be talking,” Bai Yaning said, “Actually, his pitch is not bad, and he can hit the high notes. It’s just his voice—when he sings, it sounds like he’s drunk sulfuric acid. You can’t listen to any song he sings.”
“Got it, got it,” Wang Hao nodded in understanding.
With Bai Yaning’s explanation, Wang Hao got the picture.
Simply put, Jiang Feng wanted to be a singer but didn’t have a suitable song for himself. Then he heard ‘Bubble,’ which sounded so nice, he thought he might ask for help to see if he could get a song made for him.
Ah, you’d think a small favor like that would have her come and ask on his behalf—thanks a lot! Otherwise, Miss Ice Princess might not have come today!
“If he’s not off-key, we can give it a try,” Wang Hao thought for a moment and then said, “Here’s what we’ll do: you get him to come over, and I’ll listen to him sing a few lines to get a feel for it. If it works, we can talk about the next steps. If not, then forget it. Sound good?”
Immediately Bai Yaning took out her phone, “Okay, I’ll call him right now!”
While the two were discussing, the rest had nearly finished their drinks. There was serious business for Wang Hao now; after all, he had been through life and death with Jiang Feng in the mountains, so naturally, he was inclined to help.
Standing up, Wang Hao raised his glass with a smile, “Everyone, let’s drink together! I’ve got some things to take care of now, so enjoy yourselves. If you ever need help with anything, just give me a shout.”
The classmates responded with a roar of laughter, “Got it, got it, Brother Hao, you go do your thing. We can get together again later!”
“Haha, sure, let’s do that!” Downing his drink in one gulp, Wang Hao waved, “See you all later!”
As Wang Hao, Bai Yaning, Zheng Yue, Li Mingzhe, Long Yi, and the others left the private room together, class leader Cai Mingzhe let out a long sigh and said, “We’re lucky Brother Hao went easy on us, or we’d have been played to death today. Never provoke him again. Brother Hao is no ordinary person!”
Diao Hongru nodded, “Yeah, I’m still scared now.”
Xia Fei nearly cried, “I was so scared I almost wet myself. Thank goodness Brother Hao is so magnanimous.”
Yin Chunyan raised her glass, “Enough, stop talking. Let’s drink up! Although there was a bit of a misunderstanding today, we’ve surely learned something. That was Miss Ice Princess, and we actually got to sit at the same table as her! I could brag about this for a lifetime!”
“Yeah, yeah, let’s drink up. We can brag about this for a lifetime, hahaha!”
