Ye Fengxing's displeased voice came from behind.
Tang Xiaomin stood still and said indifferently.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
All along, Ye Fengxing had not been clueless about emotions, and he could tell that Tang Xiaomin had no romantic feelings for him.
They were betrothed since before birth, so it was normal to have no emotional foundation.
Just as Butler Ye had said, they could cultivate their feelings slowly.
But today, after hearing her song, he suddenly understood something.
The reason she had no romantic feelings for him was because her affections were given to another person.
"You have someone you like, don't you?"
Someone she liked?
Tang Xiaomin unconsciously thought of "that person".
She said indifferently, "Yes."
Something shattered with a crack.
Ye Fengxing felt a dull ache in his heart.
How he wished she would say no, or that the person she liked was him.
"Can you tell me who that person is? I'd like to see what kind of man could win your heart."
Her song contained no mention of love.
But as she sang, it was as if she was shouting with her life, expressing a deep, bone-chilling love for a certain man.
That person?
He only existed in her memory.
Since Ye Fengxing asked, she might as well take this opportunity to make things clear.
Tang Xiaomin thought for a moment and said.
"He's a rather uninteresting person. Sometimes I find him quite annoying, but the longer time goes by, the more I find myself missing him."
When these words came from Tang Xiaomin's mouth, just listening to her tone, looking at her back, it seemed as though she was conveying how much she liked that man.
At this moment, Ye Fengxing felt a strong jealousy towards someone he had never met for the first time.
"Can you tell me his name?"
Asking for his name, did he intend to find that person and challenge him?
Tang Xiaomin was not worried about this. After all, they were from different worlds, and she didn't fear Ye Fengxing actually searching for him.
It wouldn't hurt to tell him.
"His name is Yan Jue. I cannot tell you his specific identity."
"Yan, like the color yan?"
"No, Yan, like the king of hell."
"Yan?"
Did anyone really have that surname? Or perhaps Ye Fengxing was just ignorant?
While Ye Fengxing was greatly disheartened, Tang Xiaomin continued.
"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't marry you. Let's peacefully dissolve our engagement. If you feel this makes you lose face, I accept if you unilaterally break off the engagement. I will also return all the betrothal gifts you gave."
Boom!
Ye Fengxing felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his mind going blank, unable to form any thoughts.
Before he could say anything, Tang Xiaomin, barefoot, ran back to the classroom and changed back into her own clothes.
Afterward, she quietly left the school alone.
Since she was going to refuse, she might as well do it ruthlessly.
Treading with tiny steps, she walked under the night sky, gazing into the distant darkness, anticipating someone to suddenly appear from within.
Then she chided herself, wondering why she was dreaming before even falling asleep.
She and he were not from the same world, and seeing him in this world was almost impossible. Sudan Fiction Network.
On the other side.
Tang Ye and Tang Yiyi also returned to their apartment.
Ever since Tang Ye had personally witnessed Tang Xiaomin's performance of her original song, he had been brooding.
"Yiyi, you've lived with Xiaomin for a longer time. Did you know she could compose?"
Tang Ye's choice to enter the entertainment industry was not solely for making money; he himself also wrote songs and possessed talent.
He could write lyrics and compose music, and he currently had albums and representative works.
However, after hearing Tang Xiaomin's song today, he was still deeply shaken.
Both the song and her voice could be considered top-tier.
Tang Yiyi was slightly taken aback.
Since Tang Xiaomin's performance, Tang Yiyi had noticed that Tang Ye was acting strangely.
Tang Ye appreciated talented people; Tang Yiyi knew this about him.
Tang Yiyi shook her head, "In the more than half a year she's been in the Tang family, I've never seen her write any songs. The song she sang today might even be plagiarized from a foreign singer."
Plagiarism was not impossible.
Otherwise, how could Tang Xiaomin suddenly come up with such a great song?
"Yiyi, you should rest early. No one should dare to target you at school anymore. You can go back to school after this, and I need to get back to work."
He spent all his money on Tang Yiyi, and if he didn't work, he really couldn't afford to support her.
After returning to his room, Tang Ye specifically used a plagiarism detection software to check.
No matter how he searched, he couldn't find any songs that matched Tang Xiaomin's song or similar rhythmic passages.
This software was currently quite authoritative, and if it couldn't find anything, it shouldn't be plagiarism.
Could it be that Tang Xiaomin really composed it herself?
The video of Tang Xiaomin's performance at the school anniversary festival went viral online overnight, and her fame spread across the internet in an instant.
Netizens left comments everywhere, saying that if Tang Xiaomin were to debut, she would undoubtedly be a queen-level singer.
At the same time, quite a few voices of doubt appeared online.
They accused her of plagiarism.
Some also claimed she had stolen Tang Yiyi's song and shamelessly presented it as her own.
Even more absurdly, under that comment, someone corroborated that Tang Yiyi indeed knew how to write songs.
They were desperately stirring up trouble.
Tang Xiaomin's method of dealing with such defamation was simple and crude.
...
Just as everyone was desperately taking Tang Yiyi's side, a sensational news broke out online.

Tang Family.
Slap!
Zhang Meiyu looked at the news of Tang Ye and Tang Yiyi's "sibling romance" scandal, her anger flaring up, her face turning ashen.
"Butler Wang, call Tang Ye back, and Tang Yiyi too!" Zhang Meiyu roared.
Tang Xiaomin picked up the newspaper and glanced at it indifferently.
"It's just a minor scandal, can't it be clarified? Tang Ye has been in the industry for several years, surely he can handle such a matter?"
Zhang Meiyu said angrily, "This is different. Tang Ye's brain only knows how to make things worse. Without the Tang family's public relations team to help him, he can't handle this at all."
"Moreover, his feelings for Yiyi... sigh, it's truly too inappropriate."
