Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities

Chapter 357 - 214: Your Sister Has a Lot of Potential! Holy Shit

Constitution Points: 234

Chen Jincheng checked his stats. He had almost used up 300 Constitution Points.

Once he did, his physique would be on par with an elite special forces soldier—the "King of Soldiers" you hear about from the military districts, the kind who’s enhanced in every way.

Little Maru rested her head on one side of his chest, her finger tracing patterns on the other, as she asked in a syrupy sweet voice, "Boss, how do you think my singing practice is going?"

Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "Your pitch and vocal range are pretty good, but your high notes are a bit lacking, and your breaths are too loud."

Little Maru asked coquettishly, "Boss, just tell me if it sounds good or not."

"It sounds good," Chen Jincheng answered truthfully.

Little Maru seized the opportunity to ask, "Then for this song, ’Little Dimples,’ will you be my male duet partner?"

"Mhm," Chen Jincheng nodded this time, adding, "We’ll record it first, and then release the song during one of my livestreams."

He didn’t even have to think about being the male duet partner. After all, there was no way he would give this song to someone else to sing; he was definitely going to do it himself.

He also had an SS-Class promotional stream from Tiao Yin, which would be the perfect time to release the song.

"Boss, you’re the best." Having gotten her answer, Little Maru kissed him on the cheek, the corners of her mouth curling into a sly smile.

’I finally managed to persuade the boss... in bed.’

Her goal achieved, she asked with a hint of probing, "Boss, this isn’t the first time you’ve arranged for me to practice singing. Do you... like me, even a little bit?"

Hearing this, Chen Jincheng teased, "You’re the one pulling a ’casting couch’ on your own boss, and you have the nerve to ask if I like you?"

"I did not!" Little Maru was clearly a little embarrassed.

Chen Jincheng, however, pulled up Little Maru’s employee information.

He hated it most when girls asked him questions like whether he liked them or not.

Name: Chu Xiaowan

Loyalty: 105

Status: This song is in the bag, but... but I’m starting to fall for...

"..." Seeing her employee status, Chen Jincheng chuckled. He lit another cigarette to calm his nerves. After finishing it, he said to Little Maru, "Sing the song for me again."

"I just finished singing, let me rest a bit," Little Maru said hurriedly.

"Not the ’uh-huh’ song, ’Little Dimples’," Chen Jincheng said, speechless. At the same time, he took out his phone and played the instrumental for "Little Dimples."

When he received the two songs, he had immediately imported the instrumentals onto his phone.

As the music started, Little Maru’s expression turned serious. After all, she was a former girl group trainee and held a great deal of respect for music.

"I’m still searching, for someone to lean on..."

Little Maru’s singing skills were indeed excellent. The training for entertainment industry trainees wasn’t for nothing. At the very least, Wang Qiqi couldn’t compare to her in this regard.

She sang the entire song very well, though there were still some minor flaws and areas for improvement.

He pointed out all these areas to Little Maru and gave her guidance.

Little Maru was thoroughly impressed by this.

Her boss’s musical attainments were very high. His guidance on her shortcomings left her completely convinced of his skill.

’This is the kind of boss worth pulling a ’casting couch’ for. Not only can he write songs for me, but he can also help me improve. Plus, he’s got a strong body, and he’s handsome...’

As Little Maru thought about this, she looked at him and couldn’t resist pouncing on him again.

...

「A short while later.」

Chen Jincheng lit another cigarette. Suddenly, a notification sounded from Little Maru’s phone. She opened WeChat and saw she had received a photo.

It was a message from her older sister, Chu Xiaqing. To their surprise, it was a very sexy backless photo.

There was also a message: Xiaowan, the clothes arrived. I took mine out to try it on first. How does it look?

Chen Jincheng also saw the photo on Little Maru’s phone and recognized her sister at a glance.

The other woman was a bit older than Little Maru.

’Looking at that photo, at her back... damn...’

He couldn’t help but praise, "That’s a nice outfit."

Little Maru quickly said, "See, Boss? This is why you should arrange more singing lessons for me. I know how to repay you. I bought two of these outfits. My sister’s just trying hers on for fun, but I can wear mine for you to... play with!"

But Chen Jincheng just smiled and asked, "Your sister has a lot of potential. Is she ’in-terested’ in becoming an internet celebrity?"

Hearing this, Little Maru looked at him warily. "Boss, are you harboring ill intentions?"

Chen Jincheng was unhappy to hear that. "What do you mean, ’ill intentions’? I just appreciate talent. Besides, what ill intentions could I have? I don’t eat the grass by my own nest. If it weren’t for you, a woman who’s always trying to ’casting couch’ her own boss, I wouldn’t have made a mistake!"

"Boss, do you think anyone would believe you?" Little Maru couldn’t help but want to roll her eyes at him.

’What’s that saying again? "To be a whore and still want a monument to your chastity." It described her boss perfectly.’

For the rest of the time, Chen Jincheng was guiding Little Maru with her song.

One moment, he was coaching her on "Little Dimples," the next, he was coaching her on her "uh-huh" vocalizations.

The morning was nearly over by the time they finished.

When he arrived at the office in the afternoon, he called Cenchun and Xiaoju over as well.

"Boss!"

"Boss!"

Both girls greeted him in a syrupy sweet voice when they arrived.

At the same time, they glanced at Little Maru, who was beside him.

Based on their own experiences, they had reason to suspect that Little Maru and the boss had also hooked up.

However, their faces showed no sign of it, as if nothing was amiss.

Except Xiaoju couldn’t help but pout a little.

’He said he’d take me to buy widow-style clothes, but then there was no word from him after that...’

’He said he wouldn’t touch me after he got back to Coastal City. Is he really not going to touch me anymore?’

’What kind of person is he?’

’Is he going to just wipe his mouth clean and deny everything?’

Seeing that the two girls had arrived, Chen Jincheng took all three of them to Radiant Square to sign their contracts.
