Chapter 488: Chapter 479: Slapping the Golden Finger Reborn Girl 7
Anningâs singing video quickly spread online.
When Anning was singing on the commercial street, one of the people recording her was a broadcaster from a video website with a huge fan base, live streaming at the time. Her flute and singing drew his attention.
Not only was he captivated, but his fans were too, strongly requesting him to get closer for a better look.
Even from a distance, those watching the live stream could tell that Anning was especially beautiful, with a fresh and clear aura.
Upon getting closer, it was clear that the girl was truly exquisite, not only was her singing voice pleasant, but she also had a face that looked like oneâs first love, the kind that one immediately wants to cherish.
So, the fans demanded even more fervently that the broadcaster get closer.
It wasnât just this broadcaster; several other people also recorded videos, edited them, and uploaded them to their Weibo accounts.
Thus, Anning became an overnight sensation on the internet.
Capital
The head of the Xiao Family had not had a good nightâs sleep for a long time.
When one doesnât sleep well, their temper naturally wonât be good.
These past few days, the temper of the new Family Head of the Xiao Family has been particularly bad, not just losing his temper at the company and making the upper management tremble in fear, but even at home he couldnât help but want to lash out, leaving the servants walking on eggshells.
Mr. Xiao entered the house with a dark expression that day. Aside from Aunt Liu, who had taken care of him since he was a child, everyone else steered clear of him to avoid being scolded for no reason.
Mr. Xiao went upstairs, and Aunt Liu followed him: "A Yuan, this isnât working. If not, letâs find a psychologist to give you some counseling."
Aunt Liu boldly suggested.
Xiao Yuan rubbed his temples: "No need."
Aunt Liu was particularly worried about Xiao Yuan: "But you havenât slept well for several days. If this continues, your health will definitely collapse, we..."
Xiao Yuan gestured for her to stop, and Aunt Liu sighed. She was about to say something more, but her phone rang.
Aunt Liu answered the call and heard her daughterâs voice: "Mom, I sent you a video, take a look. I always feel like the song the girl in the video sings is really nice, it seems like the one grandma used to sing."
Aunt Liu was immediately interested: "Then send it over."
Xiao Yuan looked up at Aunt Liu: "Is it Awu?"
Speaking of her daughter, Aunt Liu smiled: "Who else but her? That crazy girl, always acting wild and never proper."
Xiao Yuanâs ice-cold eyes softened a bit: "Awu has a good nature."
"Itâs because you see her as a sister and treat her closely that you say that. Others donât think the same."
While Aunt Liu spoke, her daughter sent over the video.
Aunt Liu opened the video, and the sound of a flute came through, leaving her momentarily transfixed.
Not just her, Xiao Yuan was also stunned.
After the flute segment, a song full of ancient charm began.
The singerâs voice was truly special, with a captivating allure that was indescribable, but upon further listening, it was as refreshing as a spring breeze. The voice was truly unmatched, akin to the enchanting sound of a mermaid in the deep sea.
Not only was the voice beautiful, but the singerâs skill was also superb; it could be said that none of the current singers could match her.
After listening to the song, Xiao Yuan hurriedly said to Aunt Liu: "Send me the video."
Aunt Liu immediately forwarded the video to Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan took out his own phone to open the video, and for some reason, his heart uncontrollably skipped a few beats upon seeing the girl singing in the video.
He looked intently and quickly noticed the iconic building behind the girl.
Xiao Yuan immediately took his phone and went downstairs, calling his assistant while descending: "Book me a flight to Moon City right away. Meet me at the airport."
At the same time, some business partners of the Yu Family, as well as people who were either on good terms or bad terms with Father Yu, were all calling the Yu parents.
"Look, Old Yu, if youâre in trouble just speak up, we can all help you to figure things out and get you through the tough times."
Father Yu didnât understand at all what these people were talking about.
"I donât understand what trouble I could possibly have."
"Stop pretending. Who among us doesnât know each other? How much did you actually lose on that project you took on a while ago?"
Father Yu was about to curse: "How much did I lose? I made a decent profit from that project, okay?"
"Ha, if you really made a profit, would you let your precious daughter sing on the streets?"
Hearing this, Father Yu felt his heart skip a beat: "What did you say? Singing on the streets?"
And then, someone sent him the video.
Upon seeing Anning in the video, Father Yu was so angry that his eyes turned red: "This... I was indeed too lenient with her."
He took his phone to find Mother Yu, while Mother Yu was also holding her phone looking for him.
Both husband and wife, upon seeing Anning in the video, were almost infuriated to death.
And just at that moment, Anning returned home from school.
Father Yu was fuming at the sight of Anning.
"You skip school for singing on the streets? Fantastic, just fantastic."
Anning stood there motionless, her gaze filled with a hint of fear: "Dad, I didnât mean to do it, I realized I had no money for the taxi after school yesterday, and I had no choice but to sing a couple of songs. I only asked for two hundred yuan, and I didnât ask for more. I wonât ever sing on the streets again, please donât be angry, okay?"
"Smack!"
Father Yu slammed the table and stood up: "You had no money and didnât think to call? You didnât think to borrow from your classmates? Youâve just disgraced me in front of everyone."
Mother Yu also had a cold expression: "Ningning, you did do something wrong in this situation. You shouldnât have..."
"I get it."
Anning lowered her head, tears dropping steadily: "If mom and dad are ashamed of me, it doesnât matter anyway, I am already sixteen years old, and I have my ID card. I can move out."
"Move out?"
Father Yu sneered: "Fine, move out right now. I donât want to see you anymore."
Anning didnât say anything more. She quietly went upstairs and after about ten minutes, she came back down carrying a suitcase.
"Iâve only taken a few clothes and my books, I didnât touch anything else."
Anning explained briefly, then left the house, turning back every few steps while pulling her suitcase.
Mother Yu wanted to call out to her, but looking at Father Yu beside her, she ended up staying silent.
Anning left the Yu Family and hailed a taxi, settling into a hotel near her school for the time being.
After having dinner, Anning started looking for rental housing information online.
After a long search, Anning found a one-bedroom apartment in a neighborhood very close to her school.
She called the broker to confirm the room was still available and arranged a time to view it.
Later, Anning made a call to Mr. Bai.
Mr. Bai was cooking when he received Anningâs call, which left him stunned for a moment: "Itâs Anning, do you need anything from me?"
Anning bit her lip, taking a moment to choose her words: "Mr. Bai, could you do me a favor?"
"What is it?" Mr. Bai turned off the stove and walked out of the kitchen with his phone.
"Iâve moved out from home, and I want to rent a place. Iâm just too young, so I need someone to help talk to the landlord. Also... I donât have enough money, can I borrow some?"
Mr. Bai immediately became anxious: "Youâve moved out? What about your parents, do you need me to talk to them for you?"
Anning shook her head: "No need. My parents think Iâm a disgrace and they kicked me out."
While saying this, Anningâs voice choked with tears: "Mr. Bai, I want to rent a place to cool down for a while. Maybe after some time, my parents will take me back home."
Mr. Bai thought for a moment; right now he could only help Anning find a secure place to stay.
He got the phone number of the broker Anning had contacted, verified everything with a call, checked out the brokerage company, and then agreed to help Anning with viewing the place.
