Chapter 260: Going Out Into the World
After Ling Sheng finished singing, she waved her hand vigorously at Huo Ci and looked at him excitedly, looking extremely proud as she begged for praise.
Huo Ci nodded and made an OK gesture. It was not bad, as it had met his standards.
Ling Sheng smiled until her eyes curved. She even applauded herself and gave him a thumbs-up, feeling immensely proud.
Huo Ci could not help but laugh. Look, she can’t be praised. She’ll shine if she’s given some sunlight.
“Father, this melody is really nice. You’re really a genius.” When Ling Sheng came out, she complimented him sincerely. “When will you be releasing this song? I’ll definitely buy 100 copies. No, I’ll support you and buy 1,000.”
“Would I need your support if I released a song? My album would be snatched up in minutes.” Huo Ci let out a snort, his face full of disdain. However, his eyes could not hide a smile.
“Father, how long has it been since you last released a song? Nowadays, digital albums are sold. There’s no such thing as snatching copies up.” Ling Sheng was sometimes a very honest child.
Huo Ci said, “Then my album will hit number one.”
“That’s true. There’s no doubt about the spending power of the Little Cis.” Ling Sheng tried to flatter him. “Is this song for Sister Su Yi?”
“Yes.” Huo Ci looked at her. “Do you have any objections?”
“There are two places where the pitch is too high. It was hard for me to sing it just now. Compared to the entire song’s key, it’s a little disharmonious.” Although Ling Sheng was not a professional singer, she had learned the basics and could give some suggestions.
If her suggestion was unprofessional, he could ignore it.
Huo Ci took a pen and changed the song before throwing her into the recording studio. “One more time.”
When Su Xiyin and Huo Xiaoqi returned from their walk with Xiaoqi, they realized that the television was still on and the lights were turned on. The father and daughter had disappeared. Sheng Sheng must have pestered Ci Er to practice her lines again.
The father and daughter were exactly the same. They were both workaholics who did not rest when they were at home. They read scripts and practiced acting.
Huo Xiao said, “Xiaoqi, take this candied haws to your mother.”
Xiaoqi happily took the candied haws and went to find his mother. There was no one in the bedroom, washroom, changing room, home theater, or gym. He stood on the second floor and shouted, “Great-grandpa, grandpa and mommy are not at home!”
“Where could they be if they are not at home?” Su Xiyin muttered as she got Xiaoqi to come down.
Two hours later, she saw the father and daughter talking as they walked out of a tightly-sealed room on the second floor, discussing something.
Huo Xiao was about to shout when Su Xiyin stopped him. “Hubby, have you noticed that Ci Er has changed a lot recently?”
In the past, Ci Er had lived alone and traveled alone. He had hated it the most when others had lived with him. The old couple had been unable to come over. When Xiaoqi and Sheng Sheng had first moved in, he had been expressionless all day.
He was much better now. He was gradually getting close to his father, and his attitude toward Xiaoqi and Sheng Sheng had changed.
Huo Xiao harrumphed angrily. What was that? He had planted the seed himself. If he had not protected her and doted on her, who would have? If his son dared to treat Xiaoqi and Sheng Sheng badly, he would beat that scumbag to death.
After that day, Ling Sheng gained Huo Ci’s approval with her capabilities and was allowed to enter and leave the studio freely. Sometimes, when he was happy, he would even come in to guide her.
Ling Sheng was smart to begin with. In just a few days, she had reached a level that even Huo Ci was satisfied with. He approved of her going out in the world, even if she embarrassed herself.
