Chapter 510 - The First Little Red Flower

Chapter 510 The First Little Red Flower

Zhang Li was very sensitive to EDM sounds.

She was already in love with the opening melodious rhythm. She never expected EDM to have such an attractive melody.

The music was appropriately fast and slow at different times. Be it the bass in the small details or the ethereal electric sound, everything was so fascinating.

She was not the only one feeling like that.

Even those who did not know how to appreciate EDM fully, like Liang Mengqi, Liang Hao, Zhao Feng, and those who listened to DJ all day, including Brother Long and Dahe, were all stunned.

Even their bodies froze.

Explosive music could make one’s body groove along, but once a sentimental piece starts to play, the listener would forget everything and focus on the ear’s enjoyment.

In the last century, Fade was a big hit verified by countless markets across the world. It blew up on the Internet in a short amount of time. Some of Alan Walker’s classics also blew up. Fade became his masterpiece. Not long after, he invited Norwegian singer Essling to create the award-winning Faded on the spot.

It could be said that that he was then crowned as the most talented composer on the EDM market. Just two years after his debut, he clinched 17th place among the top 100 DJs in the world. However, his fans were among the best.

A few days ago, Zhang Han had already thought about this. He even got Zhao Feng to send someone to search, but it ended up that there was no such person.

After thinking about it, he felt that he could give Zhang Li a present with a few of the EDMs that he was familiar with. Hence, he and Zi Yan used one week to come up with this.

After all, the porter’s job was quite easy.

Zi Yan did not know much about the DJ console, so she especially learned how to control the song Fade from a teacher. Zhang Han stood by her side and cooperated by playing a few keys.

Under all these lights, Zi Yan’s exquisite face looked blurrily beautiful. It was a unique beauty. She focused on handling the machines and a complete EDM piece was produced.

“Oh oh!”

“Amazing!”

“Beautiful!”

When the song ended, Brother Long, Dahe, Liang Hao, and Liang Mengqi all shouted and clapped in awe.

They truly felt that the duo on stage was very outstanding.

“Ahem.”

Zi Yan picked up the microphone and cleared her throat. “This EDM is made especially for Lili. Your older brother had been working on this a week ago.”

“Umm...”

Zhang Han looked at his sister, who was now teary-eyed. He chuckled and shook his head. “Bro has a family now. Although I might have neglected you a little, you’re definitely still in my heart...”

Before he finished his words, Zhang Li ran up to him and plunged herself into his arms.

“Bro...”

At that instant, Zhang Li was moved to tears.

“All right, all right. You’re already so old, yet you’re still a crybaby.” Zhang Han laughed helplessly. He stretched out his hand to pat her back.

While saying so, he also glanced at Zi Yan, as he was afraid that she would be jealous.

But Zi Yan was not so stingy. She pursed her lips and watched with a smile at the side.

There is definitely a difference between men and women. If they hugged like this on normal days, she would definitely be jealous and angry. But at this moment, it was only natural for them to do so.

Zhang Li’s emotions came and went very quickly. About 10 seconds later, she let go of him and broke into a smile.

While wiping away the tear at the corner of her eye, she said, “Bro, you know something about EDM. It’s really nice, I want to listen to it one more time.”

“Yeah, Brother Han is so awesome. I’m in awe. Respect.” Liang Hao slid over and waved his hand at Zhang Han continuously.

Actually, he also wanted to call him “Bro”, but when it came to his mouth, he lost the courage to do so, so he ended up calling him Brother Han.

Seeing his uneasy expression, Zi Yan could not help covering her mouth and laughing.

Zhang Han looked at her and then at Zhang Li. He patted her head and smiled.

“You’ll have a lot of time to listen to it in the afternoon. Your sister-in-law and I made a business deal with an EDM genius in order to create this. This is a present for you to shut your mouth in case you complain to Dad and Mom when they come back that I forgot about you after I got a wife.”

“Pfft...” That one sentence caused everyone to laugh.

Zhang Li sniffled and stopped her nose from running anymore. “Who knows? Hmph, I really intended to complain, but I wanted to complain that you found an extremely good wife and an extremely cute child. Haha, thanks Bro, thanks sister-in-law, I really like this gift.”

“As long as you like it. The song is very nice, but you’re going to be busy soon. Your brother especially looked for a team from Universal Records to produce an MV for you,” Zi Yan smiled proudly and said.

“Really? Then, will it cost a lot?” Zhang Li grinned and said.

“Why are you talking about money?” Zi Yan shook her head slightly and wrapped her arm around Zhang Han’s. “We are one family; your brother’s money is also your money.”

“Hehe, thank you, sister-in-law.” Zhang Li was overjoyed and thanked her again.

“All right, the song is in this USB. Listen to it yourself, we got to go pick up Mengmeng,” Zhang Han said after glancing at the time.

No matter what, the time taken to pick up Mengmeng had to always be set aside in advance.

“Ok, Ok. Then you two go and pick up Mengmeng first. Oh, by the way, I’ll be moving onto the mountain tomorrow. I’ll be living in the first row of villas below your castle. Feifei and I are living together, it’s really beautiful there.” Zhang Li’s eyes sparkled as she looked at her brother in admiration.

She truly felt that her brother’s life was like a rainbow after the rain.

After that downfall during those years, he rose up higher and higher. He was really amazing.

If the Zhang family found this out, they would be full of regret.

All along, their family was not very close to the Zhang family. Zhang Li once felt that Second Grandpa, Third Grandpa, as well as two other elders who were older by one generation, always looked at their family with a strange gaze.

It was not exclusion, but it was also not closeness. It was complex neutrality.

Hence, ever since they were young, she and her brother did not feel a strong sense of belonging to the Zhang family. Later on, when Zhang Han was kicked out of the house, she was very discouraged. But now that her brother was so successful, they would be blown away if they found out.

Thinking about their expressions, she felt so relieved.

However, what made her even more excited at this moment was the USB on the table in front of her. There were a whopping eight EDM songs!

After all.

Zhang Han and Zi Yan exited hand in hand.

When they arrived at the door, they heard Zhang Li’s excited scream.

“Pfft...”

Zi Yan covered her mouth and laughed. She glanced at Zhang Han and said, “I really like Lili’s character so much. She’s so true to herself. Seeing her so happy, I feel that the past few days when we were so busy was very... more satisfactory.”

She was usually a woman of few words. She was composed and gave the vibe of a princess and a goddess. However, she liked to make friends with those who did not have the same character as herself, but those who were cheerful and lively.

“Yup, she’s just like that. Always so careless.”

Zhang Han smiled and shook his head. He got in the Geely LC with Zi Yan and drove off to Saint Rose Kindergarten.

At around 4:15 p.m., they reached the entrance of the kindergarten.

This time around, they came earlier and parked the car directly near the school entrance.

Seeing about seven to eight reporters taking pictures of them, Zi Yan lowered her hat and chatted with Zhang Han smilingly.

“So strange. Usually, there would be a lot of paparazzi following us, but we haven’t met a single one recently,” Zi Yan glanced at Zhang Han and said.

“Hah.” Zhang Han chuckled and said, “How could there be none? Many were following us, but luck was not on their side, all of them got a flat tire.”

“Eh? Hahaha...” Zi Yan froze for a split second before covering her mouth and laughing. Her beautiful big eyes curved into two crescent moons. “This is fun. In the past, I always had to worry about them following me. Now they’ve met their worthy opponents!”

“When we left the kindergarten yesterday, the guy in front of us who wore a blue cap was still complaining on the phone, saying, ‘Continue? I can’t continue, I’m not going to do this anymore for the rest of my life. My car tires will start bursting once I do it. I can’t afford this, I can’t afford it’,” Zhang Han said as he pointed with his mouth to a man in front of them.

His words made Zi Yan laugh non-stop.

This kind of thing seemed amusing to her.

Just like that, the couple talked and laughed for more than 10 minutes.

Then, the after-school bell rang, when the children in the big class came out in formation, Zhang Han went in to pick up Mengmeng.

“PaPa!”

Mengmeng was particularly excited this time around. She ran quickly and plunged herself into Zhang Han’s arms immediately.

“PaPa! Quickly close your eyes!” Mengmeng stretched out her hand and covered his eyes.

“Okay, okay,” Zhang Han responded and closed his eyes.

“Uh-huh, PaPa, you cannot open your eyes. No peeking! You must wait for me. It’s going to be very quick! PaPa, you can start counting, just like me.”

While saying so, she started to search in her pockets. While searching, she continued saying, “Fi— Papa, don’t rush, it’s going to be over soon. Wan— Okay, PaPa, open your eyes!”

At this moment, Zhang Han opened his eyes slowly.

“Look!” Mengmeng stretched out her tiny hand, and in her palm sat a little red flower made of fabric.

“Wow! A little red flower?” Zhang Han’s eyes popped even wider. He leaned forward and pecked her on her soft cheek. He laughed out loud. “Mengmeng got a little red flower! You’re so good! Awesome!”

It was not pretense. He was truly happy.

“Hahaha...”

Mengmeng’s face was filled with joy. She was all smiles and looked proud of herself. She had been waiting for this day for a long time!

“PaPa, this is the first little red flower in our class, and I got it! Only three people got a little red flower today,” she added.

“Only three and Mengmeng was one of them? You’re so great! Papa gives you a big thumbs-up,” Zhang Han said with a smile.

“Aiya!”

Mengmeng suddenly shouted. Her gaze froze on her little red flower. “It’s broken, PaPa, why is it broken? It lost a petal...”

The little lass became down all of a sudden and she even pouted her little mouth. Her big clear eyes looked like they were going to burst into tears.

Zhang Han’s heart fell, and he quickly said, “It seems like there’s a problem with the quality of this little red flower, but that’s all right. We can find Teacher Lu to get another one. We are the first to get a little red flower, so we must exchange it for a new one. The best one, right?”

While saying all these, he carried her toward her class.

“Um, we want to get a new one.”

Mengmeng did not cry. After going up to Lu Guo, she said sadly, “Teacher Lu, my little red flower is broken, it lost a petal.”

At this moment, Mengmeng was worried that she could not get a new one.

However, after hearing it, Teacher Lu smiled. “Then I’ll go get you a new one.”

“Oh, okay. Thank you, Teacher Lu.” Mengmeng became happy again.

Lu Guo opened her bag and took out a box. It was a box full of little red flowers. She gave Mengmeng a new one.

The little lady was finally content and left with Zhang Han while he held her hand.

Back in the car...

Mengmeng could not wait to showcase the little red flower in her hand.

“Mama, look! I got a little red flower.”

Hearing that, Zi Yan smiled and praised her.

Receiving the praise, Mengmeng was very satisfied. She was overjoyed.

“PaPa, you said that if I got a little red flower you would promise me one thing.” Mengmeng saw that he did not say anything and pouted her tiny mouth to remind him.

“Yes, a little red flower, and I’ll promise you one thing. Is there anything that you want to do at the moment?” Zhang Han asked with a smile.

“Hmm. Nope. I’ll tell you next time, we can keep it first,” Mengmeng said seriously.

“Hahaha, okay, okay, okay. Then let’s keep it first. But since Mengmeng got a little red flower, we have to reward her. Should we go to buy ice cream first?” Zhang Han asked.

“Ice cream? Yes! Okay, okay!” Mengmeng broke into a dance.

On the way to the mall, she even hummed a song.

Mengmeng spent almost every day filled with happiness. Sometimes in school, she might feel upset, but she was always very happy at home.

She was more obedient than many other children. Despite how Zhang Han doted on her, she did not become spoiled. Of course, this was all Zi Yan’s credit.

Mengmeng herself also vaguely knew that it was not a smooth ride for PaPa.

Hence, Zhang Han first drove to a mall nearby on the right, bought some ice cream, and then drove back to Cold Immortal School.

Back on the third floor of the castle...

The whole family went to Mengmeng’s spacious bedroom.

“This small blackboard is for Mengmeng to keep her little red flowers. MaMa wrote down the dates here and you can just stick them on the board with this!”

There was a small blackboard near the wall on the left. There were several small magnets for note-taking. Zi Yan wrote down the date and placed the flower on top. She used the magnet to stick the little red flower to the board.

“All right, this is Mengmeng’s first little red flower. You did so well! In the future, this blackboard will be filled with all of your little red flowers!” Zi Yan clapped her hands and said.

“Uh-huh. When it’s full, then PaPa will owe me many things!” Mengmeng pouted her tiny mouth, and her gaze at the board was filled with anticipation.

Zhang Han found Mengmeng’s words a little amusing and he shook his head.

It seemed like the little lady liked this more. As long as she wanted something, he would naturally agree.

However, Zhang Han did not expect that the things he owed her because of these little red flowers would become a headache a few years down the road!

“Mengmeng, what do you want to eat for dinner? Daddy is going to prepare the ingredients,” Zhang Han asked with a smile.

“Hmm.” Mengmeng stared at the blackboard for a few moments and mumbled, “I’ll think about it later. I want to put this board in our bedroom, not here.”

“Ah, okay, then we’ll put it in our bedroom.” Zhang Han picked up the blackboard.

The family of three went to the master bedroom and placed the blackboard against the wall beside the small bed.

“Now you can think about what you want to eat.”

“Uh-huh. MaMa, what do you want to eat?”

“MaMa will just eat what you want to eat.”

“PaPa, then let’s eat hotpot, okay?”

“Okay.”

Then, Zhang Han got Zhao Feng to prepare the ingredients for hotpot. At 6 p.m., they had dinner in the dining room on the fifth floor of the cylindrical building. This was the highest place in the castle. It was surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows all around, and there was no obstruction to the scenery at all.

After dinner, Zhang Han and Zi Yan accompanied Mengmeng to the back mountain. Sitting under the canopy, Zi Yan sipped on a cold drink while playing with her phone.

“You passed the preliminary audition. Next Monday, which is the 15th, we have to go to Shenzhen to start recording the show. Are you nervous?” Zi Yan glanced at Zhang Han with a bright smile.

“I’m so nervous,” Zhang Han replied a little speechlessly.

“Hmph! By then, I’ll be your queen. I can eliminate you as I like. Why aren’t you taking this chance to get on my good side?” Zi Yan murmured.

“Yes, my queen.” Zhang Han made a greeting gesture and whispered, “Wait till you see how I serve you at night. Your majesty will be intoxicated for sure.”

“Pfft! What nonsense are you spouting!”

Zi Yan’s face flushed red instantly. She rolled her eyes at him annoyedly. “My period just ended; I can’t do it today.”

“Then...”

Zhang Han’s gaze fell on her sexy red lips.

“Hey!”

Zi Yan’s cheeks were burning. She sulked and said, “This is how you get on my good side? Then I’m going to eliminate you when the time comes!”

“Hahaha, all right, all right. How about I give you a massage?”

Zhang Han smiled and stood up. He walked behind her and started pressing on her shoulders.

Zi Yan pursed her lips and smiled. She held her phone and clicked on an article regarding the show.

“Look, the official statement has already been released. The supervisors’ line-up is the four of us. You know them all, right?”

“Umm...” Zhang Han looked at the other three male supervisors and nodded. “Yea, the one the left is that old school rapper Zuo Dong, and the second one is the celebrity Da Hua, who was quite famous a few years back. The two of them should be on one team, right?”

“Huh? How did you know?” Zi Yan asked curiously and pulled his hand and made him sit down beside her.

“Because they aren’t very popular right now. The third one is Gu Fan. He has good visuals and is a popular handsome boy. He blew up right after he debuted. His singing is good and he’s a very popular celebrity. He will definitely not be on a team with either of them. The two of them seem more suitable together,” Zhang Han said casually.

“You’re right, but because Zuo Dong and Da Hua’s relationship is quite good and they’ve collaborated a few times before, they were set to be on the same team right from the start.” Zi Yan nodded.

“As for the fourth one, she’s too nice. She’s pretty, has a sweet voice, is skillful...”

“What did you say?” Zi Yan glared at him.

“Hmm, she’s pretty, has a sweet voice, and is very popular now, she’s definitely on her own.” Zhang Han quickly changed his words.

“Hmph! These few days, a certain someone has got to be careful. If he doesn’t perform well, he will be eliminated!” Zi Yan sat up straight and said seriously.

But she could not keep that expression for more than five seconds.

It was all because of Zhang Han’s roaming hands.
