[CFCS] Chapter 167
Arc 12.5 - Life of Music
Translated by guilty
When Jing Yang awoke, he looked out the window and saw that it was already dark, showing that he had slept the entire day away. It's no surprise that, while the discomfort of a cold had subsided, his body was still a bit sore, since he had slept for much too long.
Jing Yang got up and leaned against the head of the bed, checking the back of his bruised hand which caused pain when he touched it, thinking he might have moved while sleeping.
He had already grasped the original owner's experience and desire to become a singer before falling asleep. Although he was in pain and saddened before he died, there was no anger because he didn't know it was Ji Xiao who killed him. Jing Yang, on the other hand, would seek vengeance from those who caused the original owner's misfortune even if he died without animosity.
Ji Xiao's family has grown considerably throughout the years. The family's business is not only big and flourishing, but also highly powerful. Otherwise, Ji Xiao wouldn't be able to accomplish so much on his own.
To exact vengeance on Ji Xiao, to ensure that he receives the punishment he deserves, and to eliminate any chance of him turning over, the backer who has been supporting him must be destroyed. If his backer fell, Jing Yang wouldn't have to care about how he was.
Although Jing Yang could rely on his own abilities, destroying Ji Xiao and his family is not impossible, but it was a lengthy process. And he didn’t know why, since his past lives he was becoming lazy and didn’t want to do difficult or intricate tasks. When the golden thighs, Gu Mang, was around him everything was much easier. He didn't have to rely solely on his so-called self-esteem to get things done. Besides, it’s also a combination of luck and ability to have a strong person to rely on.
Jing Yang was sitting on the bed and stared out the window in a daze when Gu Mang entered the room with a bowl of porridge. Despite the fact that he had dealt with the situation as swiftly as possible, he still returned this late. He just asked about Jing Yang's condition with the assistant and nurse, and learned that Jing Yang had been sleeping and had not awakened, nor had he eaten. He wanted to come up and wake him up so he could eat something before going to sleep, but he didn't expect to find him awake.
"Do you want something to eat?" Gu Mang took a seat next to the bed and placed the porridge on the nightstand. When he looked down, he noticed that the back of Jing Yang's hand had turned blue. He was immediately distressed, so he took Jing Yang’s hand and gently caressed it in the palm of his hand.
Jing Yang shook his head to show he wasn't hungry. He had a bitter taste in his mouth and had lost all appetite, refusing to eat anything.
"If you don't eat some porridge, your stomach will suffer." Gu Mang let go of Jing Yang's hand and began to feed the porridge to him.
Jing Yang seized the bowl and said that he would eat it alone. He could consume this watery porridge despite his lack of appetite. Jing Yang's nose was better and could breathe freely, so he could smell the Chinese medicine in the porridge before eating it, but it wasn't an unpleasant odor, and it didn't leave much of an after taste in his mouth. As a result, he gulped the porridge in two or three mouthfuls.
"You'll stay with me for a few days and then return when you're feeling better. No one can look after you if you return now." Gu Mang had already known about Chu Yang's past and had looked into what transpired between him and Liu Hang. Knowing this made him feel uneasy, like a sense of rage that his treasure had been taken from him ahead of time. However, Liu Hang and Ji Xiao are now in an open relationship, implying that Liu Hang and Jing Yang are not in a relationship. Even if they have, he will undoubtedly seize this person with his powers.
Jing Yang couldn't speak, so he could only type on his phone. [How do you know no one is looking after me?]
Gu Mang looked at the words on the phone, didn't respond to his question, but instead asked him a question. "Have you really ended your relationship with Liu Hang?"
[Are you investigating me?] After typing, Jing Yang looked at him. Gu Mang's moves were unexpectedly quick, and his investigation had already gone this far. Few people knew about Chu Yang and Liu Hang's relationship, and he was able to discover it, proving that his methods were effective.
For a brief while, Gu Mang's expression was odd, but he cleared his throat and said seriously. "Last night– I'll take responsibility for what I did to you while you're not concious. In the future, your business will be my business, and I will not let you be wrong."
Jing Yang looked at him, thinking that because he was so direct, then he wouldn't be polite to him. On his phone, he typed. [I've broken up with Liu Hang, and I'd like to end the contract with my current agency. If you helped me in resolving this issue, then I don't care that you slept with me.]
When he saw the phrase [you slept with me], Gu Mang had a peculiar sense that he couldn't explain. Then he looked at the entire content and felt that they’re just making a deal, which made him sad. "I promised that I would be responsible for you until the very end. I'm not trying to work out a deal with you to get rid of that issue. All of your affairs will be under my control from now on."
Jing Yang was well aware that Gu Mang was clearly in love with him and planned to use what happened last night as an excuse to be responsible for him. Therefore, when he pretended to make a physical deal with him, Gu Mang was immediately upset.
[So what you're saying is that I'll keep sleeping with you in the future? Is one night's sleep going to help me solve one problem?] Jing Yang continued to irritate him on purpose.
Gu Mang didn't like the way Jing Yang despised himself. He believed that the person he cherished so deeply could not be despised by anyone, including the person itself.
Gu Mang was furious. He didn't want to quarrel with Jing Yang, who was still sick, so he took his phone, preventing him from typing and pissing him off. "Go to sleep. Rest and get better."
Jing Yang had been sleeping a lot during the day and couldn't sleep at all now. Gu Mang had laid him down, and JIng Yang looked at Gu Mang with dissatisfaction.
.
Those eyes are too dazzling. When Gu Mang saw them, he felt a surge of desire in his heart. He hurriedly extended out his hand to cover those eyes as he whispered softly, "Go to bed, be good, go to bed,"
Jing Yang moved his hand away and looked at him with reluctance.
Gu Mang said helplessly, "What do you want?"
Jing Yang then pointed to Gu Mang's mouth and then to his own ears.
"Do you want me to sing for you?" Gu Mang asked.
Jing Yang nodded.
Gu Mang sighed, removed his coat, went to bed, and held Jing Yang in his arms, singing to him as he requested.
Jing Yang was quite happy as he lay on Gu Mang's chest, listening to the live-action three-dimensional version of the song. The King of Music Gu sang personally to him, this was a treatment that only he can enjoy.
Gu Mang's voice is deep, low, and extremely magnetic. It has an endearing effect, especially when he sings love songs. Even with no accompaniment, the listener would still have a great time.
Gu Mang sang out two songs in a row while staring down at Jing Yang. He saw those sparkling eyes wide open. Since the more he listened, the more energized he became, Gu Mang could only keep singing till Jing Yang fell asleep.

Gu Mang's new single and music video were released a few days later. This time, he made two different MVs for the same song. Gu Mang made another full version where he sang and Jing Yang played the drum because he didn't want to cut a single shot of Jing Yang’s.
The drum stage version of the MV had a lot more views than the other version. Not only because Jing Yang's looks while playing the drums was really handsome and charming, but also because both of the men’s auras overlapped, which is quite surprising and attractive.
Gu Mang's new song rose to the top of the main music charts in just two days, and the number of views on the music video grew at an alarming rate.
This was always the trend every time Gu Mang releases a new song. It was nothing new to him or anyone else. Gu Mang's MV had also become popular, which piqued people's interest.
Liu Hang and Ji Xiao were both taken aback when they realized the person in the MV was Chu Yang. They had no idea when Chu Yang went to shoot Gu Mang's music video.
Chu Yang received a lot of attention as a result of Jing Yang's rebirth, which made Ji Xiao very uncomfortable. He did everything he could to keep Chu Yang under his control so that he wouldn't have a great future, but Chu Yang is now out of his hands and attracting a lot of attention. He's also now linked to Gu Mang. He couldn't even use his power this time to turn the spotlight on Chu Yang in a negative way. He couldn't help but be enraged.
Ji Xiao's heart grew angrier as more attention was paid to Chu Yang. He couldn't stop thinking about what he'd do next to finish off Chu Yang.
In the previous life, Ji Xiao knew Chu Yang's throat was badly irritated due to a cold, so he devised a plan to harm his vocal chords. After Jing Yang was reborn in this life, he hadn't yet appeared in front of him, so he could only think of other options.
Chu Yang had been trying to evade contact with Liu Hang since their breakup, thus Liu Hang was unaware that Chu Yang had not returned home for several days. He called Chu Yang when he saw the video, but the phone was always turned off. When he went to his house to look for him, no one answered the door. He was a little anxious.
For several days, Jing Yang stayed at Gu Mang's house. Gu Mang finally agreed to allow him return to his home once he was certain his cold was practically gone.
Gu Mang drove Jing Yang to his neighborhood and told him before he exited the car.
"If you have something to do, don't forget to call me. If there is nothing else to do, you can also call me. When I call you, you are not allowed to ignore me ."
"Don't worry," Jing Yang said, "I want you to help me deal with the termination of the contract. I'll give you a call as soon as I can."
"I've instructed the lawyers to begin preparing. Don't be worried about this. The worst option is to simply pay them liquidated damages." Gu Mang remarked.
"Understood. I'll speak with Liu Hang first. I'll let you know if he objects to the contract being terminated peacefully." Jing Yang knew in his heart that Liu Hang would not agree to easily dissolve the contract, but he still wanted to talk about it first. "I am leaving."
For the time being, Jing Yang could not live with Gu Mang since he had a plan and should keep a certain distance from Gu Mang before completing his plan.
Jing Yang took the elevator to Chu Yang's floor. As soon as he exited, he noticed Liu Hang standing at the door, ringing the doorbell.
"You have something to do with me?" Jing Yang asked as he walked over.
Liu Hang turned to see Jing Yang and walked towards him with a little eagerness. "Where have you been for the past few days, Chu Yang? You didn't go to the company or come home. I was about to call the police!"
Jing Yang took a few steps back after Liu Hang approached him too closely, and said from a distance. "I went out to relax. We're no longer together. I don't have to tell you where I'm going every day, right? I also didn't go to the company every day before. What are you worried about?
"I'm worried because I haven't been able to reach you. Even if we are no longer lovers, you are still an artist in our company. Shouldn't I be concerned about your well-being?" Liu Hang looked into Jing Yang's eyes with some grief as well as other unexplained feelings.
"Are you certain you want to say this here?" Jing Yang shifted his gaze around. The paparazzi are now everywhere, and cameras may be installed in every corridor of the building.
"Won't you let me in and sit down? I've been looking for you for days." Liu Hang didn't want to leave like this, and he looked at Jing Yang. He wanted to say something to him.
Jing Yang felt disgusted by the way he looked at him and turned his head to the side, saying, "I don't have any decent tea at home to keep Mr. Liu entertained. Furthermore, it is not a good idea to alert someone about it and have them misunderstand. After all, that person's heart is fragile and cannot withstand any stimulus. However, I have some official matters to discuss with Mr. Liu, and since it is official, we should discuss it in the company."
Jing Yang turned and walked towards the elevator, and Liu Hang could only follow.
