"You can't sing if it's not on stream?"

It was the first time Su Qing Cen had heard of such a saying.

Meng Fan nodded earnestly. "Really. You see, I almost messed up today's broadcast. If it wasn't a stream, the pressure would be too much. When the time comes, my voice will definitely crack and go off-pitch. It'll ruin your concert!"

To be honest, Meng Fan was very tempted to perform on stage alongside his idol. But after careful consideration, he still chose to refuse.

First of all, he was genuinely worried that he would mess up Su Qing Cen's concert.

Like Bai Zhi's concert today, there weren't many live audiences since it was mostly a streamed concert. Meng Fan more or less understood what online streams entailed. Although there were bound to be mishaps everywhere, at least not everyone had paid to enter the venue, so any trainwreck that occurred would be taken lightly with a hint of humor.

Su Qing Cen's concert required tickets to enter the venue, so his mentality was different. People came because they paid and weren't there to screw around and watch a commotion. Besides, Meng Fan was also her fan and was very aware of what would happen if he screwed up singing alongside his idol. Maybe they wouldn't drag him off the stage and beat him ruthlessly, but he would definitely be received with hostility, to say the least.

To be honest, Meng Fan didn't even like singing that much. Although he sounded pretty good now and enjoyed his voice from time to time, he still wasn't very keen.

Lastly, the concert wasn't streamed, so he couldn't obtain experience for the [Famous Streamer] task.

As for the [Concert Killer] task, it was okay to tease a few smiles from the audience as an audience member, but he didn't see the need to mess up the concert on stage or impact it with his reputation as a guest.

If Su Qing Cen's concert was streamed and she invited him, Meng Fan would have accepted for the experience. At most, he could restrain himself from causing havoc.

"Really?"

Su Qing Cen wasn't unhappy but slightly disappointed.

She invited Meng Fan to her concert firstly because she thought Meng Fan wanted to enter this industry, and she wanted to help him regardless of her relations.h.i.+p with Meng Cai Wei. Secondly, she really thought he was a good singer. His voice was distinctive, and he could definitely hold his own at her concert.

The company also didn't refuse after hearing Su Qing Cen's request. After all, they knew Meng Fan was a fan of Su Qing Cen, and he was a fan with a world record. Also, he was good at singing too. This kind of mystical person was very likable.

Meng Fan nodded. "It's too much pressure, really… I can't really explain it."

Su Qing Cen heard that and didn't press him anymore. Although she was regretful, she still smiled and said, "Alright then. If you can overcome your psychological barrier, let me know, and I'll invite you again. Oh right, you can still watch a concert, right?"

Meng Fan smiled. "If you're not worried about me causing another laughing frenzy, I'd love to come!"

Su Qing Cen spread her arms and mimicked Bai Zhi's words. "Let him laugh, aren't we having a good time?"

Having said that, Meng Fan had sidetracked both concerts, but the result was not necessarily bad. He actually added a lot of fun elements to the concert. This was the case at Su Qing Cen's concert, and although he hadn't received any feedback from the parties involved, it couldn't have gone too awry.

The concert ended around 10:30, and the live audience applauded before leaving the venue reluctantly in an orderly manner.

Meng Fan sent a Wechat message to Wu Tong and the other girls. Although Wu Tong had met Su Qing Cen and Bai Zhi, the other girls hadn't. Of course, they wanted to see them up close. An autograph and a photo was the definition of a top tier concert experience.

"Jiu Jiu."

Bai Zhi saw Qin Jiao and the others being escorted backstage and welcomed Qin Jiao with a hug, grabbing her hands. "We haven't seen each other in almost three months!"

Qin Jiao's face was sullen. "So what if it's three months, it's not like you wanted to see me anyways. You've been in Hangzhou all these days, and not mentioning having dinner, you didn't even invite me to your concert!"

Bai Zhi held onto Qin Jiao's arm. "I was trying to find you and ask you for dinner after the concert! You know I'm a person who holds onto things. If I don't finish my work and eat with you, I might not feel at ease during dinner. Then that's not fair to you. As for the concert, I knew Fan was going to give you the ticket."

"You hold onto things, I hold grudges!"

Qin Jiao rolled her eyes at Bai Zhi but couldn't hold it anymore, breaking into laughter.

Wei Zhi Xue and the three others were curious and surprised. They didn't expect Qin Jiao to know Bai Zhi, and for the two to have such a close relations.h.i.+p too.

Wu Tong was quick to figure out the relations.h.i.+p between them. Qin Jiao was Liang Qing's student and learned from her since a very young age. She must be familiar with Liang Qing's daughter of the same age, Meng Cai Wei. And since Meng Cai Wei was college roommates with Bai Zhi and had a close relations.h.i.+p, it wasn't surprising they knew each other.

From another perspective, Qin Jiao must be really close to Meng Cai Wei as well.

After the two greeted each other, Qin Jiao introduced the other girls before they proceeded to take a group photo and ask for autographs.

Su Qing Cen had noticed Qin Jiao next to Wu Tong during the concert. She didn't know who Qin Jiao was, but she felt this woman was very beautiful and had good taste. She knew this woman was definitely somehow related to Meng Fan, but she didn't expect her to know Bai Zhi as well.

The staff on the side also noticed during the photoshoot the dazzling aura of Wu Tong and Qin Jiao. Not only were they eye-catching, but these two fans who came to take photos did not lose in appearance to either Bai Zhi nor Su Qing Cen.

The other three girls were very beautiful as well but were at a huge disadvantage standing next to these four ladies.

After the concert, they had an afterparty, which was a dinner. One, it was a successful stream, and two, the staff were all very hardworking. They had to take the chance to relax. It wasn't just hard work from the hours during the concert, but all the efforts that went into preparation for rehearsal till now.

Qin Jiao and the others had already left, leaving Meng Fan by himself. Even if he wanted a ride back, he wouldn't fit.

This was Meng Fan's first time partic.i.p.ating in this kind of gathering. In the beginning, he found it to be quite interesting, but slowly he began to lose enthusiasm, especially when the big brothers in the music circles began to persuade others to drink. Meng Fan had a good alcohol tolerance, but he was no match for the complexities of tabletop manners and alcoholic talk. In no time, he guzzled a copious amount of wine.

He rushed to the bathroom and put on the hat to slip out.

"Huh?"

Just as he was about to leave, Meng Fan paused after hearing a few band members chattering.

11/11 gala stream!

These words jumped in Meng Fan's ears. It was like a new boss had entered the battlefield!

There would be so many people watching this 11/11 gala being broadcasted from satellite TV!
