Under the warm hospitality of Zhou Yi and the villagers, Zhang Xiaohua and his party had lunch at the Sparrow Company. Although there was no big fish and no expensive wine, the meal was very enjoyable. They laughed together and at each other. Unconsciously, they seemed to have become like a family.

After the meal, Zhou Yi and his villagers sent Zhang Xiaohua and co to the company's doorstep.

When Zhang Xiaohua arrived in front of the car, Zhou Yi shook hands with him again. There was the sense that the relationship between the two had undergone a subtle change from this strange cooperation, as if they became good brothers.

"I wish Brother Zhang a safe journey home, wait to hear the good news about the sales from me. I'll inform brother as soon as we get the first sales figures." Zhou Yi always had a smile on his face, fully complementing his image as good man.

Looking around and seeing those children who had lost their beautiful childhood in order to help their families out, Zhang Xiaohua took a bank card and then stuffed it into Zhou Yi's hands and said, "This still has some money on it, the pin is five-eight-nine-two. Go back and buy them some shoes, toys and some books, try not to let them learn those basic crafts like carpentering, instead they should learn things like math!"

"Brother Zhang, how can I accept this money?" Zhou Yi understood Zhang Xiaohua's motives, but if he even if he wanted to accept the other person's money, he couldn't do it as those parents would feel ashamed.

"You shouldn't misunderstand, this money is not given to you in vain, I'm only lending it to you guys for the time being. In the future, I'll directly come collect it back. In addition, children are not easy to care for, you don't want to watch them lose even their last bit innocence and lose out on creating some childhood memories. Right?" Zhang Xiaohua said seriously.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the ability now. Otherwise, this card wouldn't only have a few thousand yuan. Even if it was tens of millions, as long as those children were able to learn, he wouldn't be half-hearted.

Since Zhang Xiaohua said those words to him, Zhou Yi had no choice but to give in and accept the money. He gratefully accepted the bank card.

"Remember to buy more sweets for the children!" In the car, Emma reminded with a grin.

Zhou Yi smiled, but when he remembered the children, he felt ashamed.

Those villagers raised them and cared for them when they were younger. They also collectively paid for their university fees. However, when they finished, they couldn't even find jobs and had no choice but to return, even so, they still didn't have the ability to take care of the children in the villager. They could only allow the children to learn some skills at the factory and trade skills from the carpenters and such. Zhou Yi's heart had always been embarrassed thinking it over!


But now it was okay. After the records were sold, the lives of the villagers and the children would be somewhat improved. For this reason, Zhou Yi felt very gratified, but still even more grateful to Zhang Xiaohua's for his generosity.

"Well folks, take care, we will see you again next time." After that, Zhang Xiaohua got in the car, waved farewell and drove away.

"Boss Zhang, remember to visit often!" The villagers waved enthusiastically.

...

Returning to the company, it was already 5pm, Yuan Datong and co had no intention of leaving work. However, with all the current jobs in the company already completed, they wanted something to do but didn't know where to start.

"Boss, what are we going to do next?" Emma asked.

"Create a netizen army." Zhang Xiaohua spoke freely of this cyber term.

Emma was shocked, and so were the others. They all had sharp brains, but just couldn't understand his strange terms.

Seeing everyone puzzled, Zhang Xiaohua shook his head and smiled. It seemed that there was no such thing as a "netizen army" in this world. He explained: "You job is to keep posting on the Internet. It's best to visit Wang Jingwen Weibo and post on it, try to stir up her fan base, in short, let all those who support her know that her album is already on sale, and then attach a file of all the sale outlets."

After Zhang Xiaohua's explanation, everyone was suddenly enlightened, listening to Emma say as she grinned: "It's just to help Wang Jingwen's record gain attention, it's simple."

"While we are doing that, what will you do?" asked Datong, who looked curiously at Zhang Xiaohua.

"Continue to write songs and get prepared to open a concert for our big star." Zhang Xiaohua said.

At present, including the Mandarin version of "Broken Hearted Woman", Wang Jingwen only had total of seven songs. Opening a fan club was okay, but if they wanted to hold a concert, there were too few tracks.

"Concert!!!" Everyone exclaimed together.

Of course, they were not surprised to hear about Wang Jingwen getting a concert, that was expected. But to open a concert, one needed at least twenty songs as the minimum requirement, currently they had only 7 songs in total and although every single one of them was a classic, they simply wouldn't be enough.

"Boss, I think it's time to create for Wang Jingwen a fan club. But for a concert, I think there aren't enough songs," Emma said quietly. The others also madly nodded, it was far too soon to plan a concert, but making a fan club now would be fair enough.

"I'm going to write a few songs for her. Let's give her twenty songs first." Zhang Xiaohua justified himself. There was no pressure in the words and it didn't sound like he was joking.

"Boss, do you mean to say that you can still write 13 songs for Wang Jingwen?" Emma stared at Zhang Xiaohua with a pair of watery eyes, if Zhang Xiaohua said yes, then Emma would likely burst into tears. Who would believe that he could continuously create 13 songs? Unless he was God!

"Yeah!" Zhang Xiaohua responded without thinking.

"..."

They collectively replied with silence.

After a moment, they all couldn't help laugh.

This time, Zhang Xiaohua actually reached the same level as "God" in their eyes.

Yuan Datong was too lazy to bother questioning Zhang Xiaohua, he sat front of a computer and started crazily posting to help Wang Jingwen's album gain steam online.

The others also started to work taking up their mobile phones, registering multiple IDs and mixed in with Wang Jingwen's major fans. They spared no effort to help Wang Jingwen with advertising, completely ignoring the existence of an individual.

Zhang Xiaohua just laughed out loud and started to work, intending to create several catchy songs so they could plan a concert.

Of course, the main purpose of Zhang Xiaohua was to make use of Wang Jingwen's popularity to make as much money as possible in the shortest possible time, because Zhang Xiaohua felt that Wang Jingwen would eventually betray them, he still remembered her gaze towards him when he turned down those large record labels, it was a look of bitter hatred, as if he had murdered her family, he shivered just thinking of it.

Simply put, he felt that though she acted like an innocent flower, she was just biding her time for revenge.

In fact, Zhang Xiaohua was forced to use her. Even if he knew that Wang Jingwen was disloyal, he couldn't help but hold on to her. After all, she was the only person who could sing the songs while having the image needed. He was just hoping now to gain as much money as possible from her, then replace her as soon as possible.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua had no choice. As long as Wang Jingwen was still in the company, he must continue to write songs for her!

...

Later, Zhang Xiaohua returned home.

As the recent period was just too busy, Zhang Xiaohua hadn't had time to see his mother.

His father had just passed away. So besides Liu Yan, she had no one to spend time with.

As the only child and the only man in the family, Zhang Xiaohua felt his behaviour was a bit too much.

He decided to accompany his mother first, work things could just wait.

At this thought, Zhang Xiaohua called out for his mother several times, but he didn't receive a response.

Zhang Xiaohua felt it was strange, was his mother not at home?

But his mother didn't have many close friends, plus she doesn't like to go out, especially at this time.

Was she in her room?

Walking up to his mother's room, Zhang Xiaohua just went to knock on the door, when Liu Yan came out from the room, smoothly closing the door behind her and blocked his path.

"Liu Yan, is my mother in the room? I haven't seen her for so long. I want to chat with her today." Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile. Only in front of Liu Yan and his mother would he reveal this innocent smile, he felt as if he was a child again in front of them.

"My lady is still a bit uncomfortable and just fell asleep. Young master mustn't bother her." Liu Yan mouth put on a slight smile. Just looking at it, it could be found out that her smile was somewhat unnatural.

"She still ill?" Zhang Xiaohua frowned and wondered. However, after Liu Yan said this, he also thought about it faintly. His mother's complexion had recently looked a bit poor.

"It's nothing major, the madame just has a bit of a fever, I'll take good care of her, young master shouldn't worry about it." Liu Yan smiled, and then abruptly changed the subject: "Dinner is not yet ready young master. I must go and cook, can I please ask the young master to go to the living room to watch TV? When I'm done, I call young master to eat."

"No, I'm not hungry."

Since Liu Yan said that his mother was alright, Zhang Xiaohua didn't think too much about it. He smiled and raised his eyebrows as he sincerely asked, "I've been a bit busy lately, I'll have to trouble you to take care of my mother. Well, I shall go ahead first, good night Liu Yan!" he said as he walked to his room.

Watching Zhang Xiaohua walking further and further away, Liu Yan smile gradually turned into a frown. She felt ashamed and guilty, she sighed with grief and helplessness, it seemed that whatever the issue was, it was an insurmountable one!
