Li Huange felt a tremor in her heart, as if something had pierced it.

Did Chen Qi really think this way?

Was he truly willing to silently support me from behind, letting me bask in the glory of stardom?

Li Huange snorted.

He spoke so nobly, I almost believed him.

Is the entertainment industry really that easy to navigate? Everyone only sees the glamorous surface of celebrities, unaware of the many who struggle and fail to make it.

Giving you two hundred thousand a month as pocket money already surpasses what many in the entertainment industry earn.

If you're content to lie flat, that's fine. Lack of ambition isn't a flaw. Your skill in taking care of the home is why I chose you, so why make yourself sound so noble?

For the first time, Li Huange realized that Chen Qi had a different side to him than the one he showed her—he had a bit of a comedic side. So, his previous intellectual and gentle demeanor was just an act.

"Queen of Songs Huange, do you think Chen Qi can really play and sing the guitar?" Lin Xiaolu asked with a hint of implication.

Li Huange shook her head with a smile, not wanting to spoil the surprise herself.

"Then does Actress Lin think he can?"

[I think he probably can't. He was just tapping away at the computer to find some theory to fool Little Kun.]

[I also think Chen Qi can't. If he really understood, he wouldn't have said 'Chasing the Moon' sounds bad.]

[My Brother Qi is versatile; he definitely can!]

[Your Brother Qi is already married, and he's a stay-at-home gigolo. You women still idolize him?]

[It seems like the lady of this house is a celebrity in the entertainment industry. Hasn't anyone noticed?]

[Could this really be Li Huange's family?]

The number of viewers in the live stream was increasing rapidly, now reaching 9 million.

Some people even started typing "Li Huange's family" in the chat.

...

"So... are you really that great? Deliberately giving the glory to my mom?"

Although Chen Xiaokun was mature for his age, he was still a child and couldn't help but believe a little.

Chen Qi nodded, reaching out to pat Chen Xiaokun's head.

"So I don't want your mom to know how amazing I am, or else she'd feel inferior."

"Tch... what a load of bull!" Chen Xiaokun frowned, pushing Chen Qi's hand away. "Then play and sing for me, and I won't tell my mom."

Chen Qi sighed, "Then our manly pact is established, okay?"

He walked to the bed and picked up the guitar. A familiar feeling washed over him as he closed his eyes slightly.

Ah... this feeling... how nostalgic!

The afternoon sunlight poured in, casting a glow on Chen Qi's tall figure and gentle face, highlighting a layer of radiance.

The scene was rendered even more peaceful and serene.

[Wow... there's a vibe here.]

[I don't believe he can do it. If he can play and sing, I'll eat a whole pit from the village outhouse.]

[He's so handsome, my girlish heart is fluttering.]

[I don't mind that Chen Qi is remarried.]

Buzz...

Chen Qi strummed a simple chord and opened his eyes.

A simple prelude flowed out, and Chen Qi began to sing with deep emotion.

"Finally found an excuse, taking advantage of the tipsy feeling,"

"To express all my emotions..."

Chen Xiaokun's pupils suddenly widened, staring blankly at Chen Qi.

The mature man's voice was slightly hoarse, and the stubble on his chin added a touch of maturity, yet Chen Qi's face still carried a hint of boyishness.

Although the melody of the verse wasn't very dynamic, it was clearly a very pleasant song, and Chen Qi's guitar skills were evident.

Watching the scene, Fu Qing was in a daze, murmuring to herself.

"This... he really can, with that look... that voice... he could really become famous!"

"Huange's doubts were actually confirmed!"

Li Huange's mind went blank for a moment, her whole body tingling.

He... he was really hiding it!

As professionals, Li Huange, Zhuo Yiyi, and Bai Qinghe could all tell.

This song was clearly a very appealing love song that catered to the public's taste, paired with Chen Qi's handsome and passionate face, it was visually striking.

Yet, no one had ever heard this song before.

Could it really be an original?

At this moment, the entire studio was extremely quiet, all immersed in Chen Qi's singing, with only the barrage of comments flooding the big screen.

When Chen Qi sang the chorus, the comments surged even more.

"I'm jealous of your love, so powerful,"

"Like a Heavenly Queen with undiminished popularity,"

"What you want isn't me, but a kind of vanity,"

"Only with someone to love do you seem so outstanding..."

[It's so good, my ears are pregnant.]

[He really can! Why can he? He...]

[The lyrics are amazing too. I highly suspect Chen Qi is Li Huange's husband, and Li Huange is the Heavenly Queen with undiminished popularity.]

[Bullshit! Li Huange is mine! Didn't you hear it's 'like a Heavenly Queen with undiminished popularity'?]

Li Huange's lips trembled slightly.

Is this song written for me?

We're just in a contractual marriage, could it be that he... has fallen for me?

If not, why could he write such heart-wrenching and emotionally rich lyrics and melody?

Zhuo Yiyi's eyes sparkled with little stars, while Bai Qinghe and Lin Xiaolu couldn't hide their jealousy.

Such a passionate man, singing such a beautiful and charming song, but unfortunately, he's someone else's husband.

Why does Li Huange deserve him?

...

"If one day love is no longer confusing,"

"Enough to see all the rights and wrongs clearly,"

"Until that moment, in my heart,"

"You will no longer be praised, treated as the Heavenly Queen..."

"It won't be me anymore..."

As the last part of the song finished, Li Huange's heart trembled once more.

Treating me as the Heavenly Queen... it won't be you anymore...

When will that be?

Is it when we're together that I won't be the image of the Heavenly Queen in your heart?

At this moment, a fact was solidified in Li Huange's heart—Chen Qi loves her!

For some unknown reason, a hint of sweetness rose in Li Huange's heart, but at the same time, a sense of anger emerged.

Kid, you've got quite the imagination.

Are you planning to be a gigolo for life?

The thunderous applause in the studio pulled Li Huange out of her thoughts, and she couldn't help but feel a bit angry again.

Apart from not sleeping in the same bed, Li Huange and Chen Qi had gotten along very harmoniously over the past three years, like close friends.

Chen Qi was very considerate, often noticing when Li Huange brought home her work-related frustrations, and used his warmth to comfort her, allowing her to completely relax at home.

When the company needed a new work, Chen Qi knew it too, yet he had this song—why didn't he bring it out?

Is lying flat really that important?

...

As Chen Qi finished the last strum, the song performance was complete.

Chen Xiaokun asked eagerly, "What's the name of this song? Did you write it?"

"The song is called 'Heavenly Queen,' and as for whether I wrote it..." Chen Qi chuckled, "Guess?"

"You..."

The good image he had just built up instantly collapsed.

"Which do you think is better, 'Heavenly Queen' or 'Chasing the Moon'?" Chen Qi asked.

Chen Xiaokun's face darkened, and he didn't reply.

Being young doesn't mean not understanding. From a professional standpoint, 'Heavenly Queen' indeed surpassed 'Chasing the Moon' by quite a bit, even though 'Chasing the Moon' had a mature arrangement and 'Heavenly Queen' was just an impromptu performance.

Chen Qi stood up and patted Chen Xiaokun's shoulder.

"Little Kun, don't forget our manly pact, you can't tell your mom, okay?"

Chen Xiaokun watched Chen Qi's back and shouted:

"Chen Qi! Why don't you bring out such a song for my mom?"

"Is it easy for my mom to run Huange Entertainment all by herself? Do you really deserve to be her husband?"

Chen Qi's body trembled slightly.

[Holy crap!]

[Holy crap!]

[Holy crap, holy crap!]

[Holy freaking crap!]
