Chapter Sixteen: Curiosity Can Kill a Cow

  Wang Wei nodded and said, "Yes, I am the author of this book." Seeing Wang Wei's admission, Zuo Hongyuan suddenly felt that his brain was not enough. He had lived for over 40 years, relying on his own efforts and musical talent to make a big name in the Chinese music scene. He thought he had seen many geniuses, but today, his new apprentice gave him too much shock. Less than fourteen years old.

  Without a single day of formal education, although he has only written three or four songs so far, Zuo Hongyuan dares to confirm that once these four songs are sung, Wang Wei will quickly become famous in the Chinese music scene. Moreover, he is also the author of a best-selling martial arts novel.

  Is this a human or a monster? Zuo Yuanhong didn't know what words to use to describe his current mood, whether he should be happy that he had taken in a monstrous student or worried about how to teach this monstrous student in the future. Just as Zuo Yuanhong was sitting there shaking his head and sighing.

  Teresa Teng asked, "Teacher, is Ah Wei's martial arts novel very famous? Why do you seem so familiar with it?" Usually, Teresa Teng was very busy with work, her schedule was fully booked every day, either practicing singing or recording albums, meeting fans and whatnot, so she didn't have time to read any martial arts novels. So when she saw Zuo Hongyuan's complex expression after hearing that Wang Wei was the author of "The Legend of the Double Dragons", she was somewhat perplexed and asked in a soft voice.

  Zuo Hongyuan smiled wryly after hearing Deng Lijun's words and said, "Not only is he famous, but in the martial arts world, the two characters 'Meng Sheng' are almost as well-known as Gu Long." "Who is Meng Sheng?" "Sister Lijun, Meng Sheng is my pen name." Wang Wei, who was on the side, knew that his revelation today was a bit too sudden. Therefore, as soon as Deng Lijun opened her mouth, he quickly explained.

  Teresa Teng heard Wang Wei say that Meng Sheng was his pen name, and she began to move. She didn't really watch martial arts novels, but Gu Long's name was indeed well-known to her. Because at that time in Taiwan, entertainment activities were not as rich as they are now, and many things could not be said or done due to the influence of the authorities, TV had just started, and programs were not very rich, so martial arts can be said to be a very important form of entertainment, especially for some young people with limited economic ability. Buying tickets to watch movies seemed a bit extravagant, while going to rent bookstores to borrow books was relatively cheap. Therefore, the influence of martial arts in Taiwan at that time was particularly great.

  As a legendary figure in the martial arts world, Gu Long was already well-known among young people in Taiwan at that time. So when Teresa Teng heard Wang Wei's song and found it comparable to Gu Long's works, she couldn't help but think of Wang Wei's musical talent, just like Zuo Hongyuan did. However, unlike Zuo, Teresa was a girl, and a woman in her prime, so while marveling at Wang Wei's talent, she also thought of other things.

  Talking about Teresa Teng's age, it turns out that she is only one day different from Lin Fengjiao. The reason why she became so famous is because of her extremely high talent in music. After several singing competitions, she was finally discovered by the Universe Record Company, which enabled her to embark on a path to stardom.

  However, geniuses are always lonely. Sometimes the extraordinary talent brings not only glory but also endless loneliness. Because Teresa Teng had an extremely high talent in singing, she participated in competitions and performances everywhere at a very young age. As a result, her fame grew bigger and bigger, but she became lonelier and lonelier. This made Teresa Teng never have any romantic relationships when she was young. Maybe someone would say that Teresa Teng didn't have romantic relationships because she was too busy with work, but one thing is undeniable: the young Teresa Teng was lonely and isolated.

  Actually, geniuses are also human beings, they just have a higher innate talent in certain aspects. At this moment, Teresa Teng suddenly saw a man who was even more excellent than herself, and while she was amazed in her heart, she also felt a ripple of emotion, not to mention that the two had just gone through a small episode that was awkward but worth remembering.

  Looking at this big boy who is four years younger than herself, Teresa Teng suddenly found that Wang Wei's body was full of charm. Having lost his father since childhood and relying on his mother for survival, he had not read a single day of school, but the songs he wrote were all classics. Moreover, he was also a martial arts writer who could be mentioned in the same breath as Jin Yong.

  What kind of person is he, anyway? Teresa Teng had unknowingly developed a curiosity about Wang Wei, and sometimes curiosity can be very dangerous for someone, especially when a woman becomes curious about a man. This was not a good thing at all, because it meant that she would soon become entangled with this man in many inexplicable ways.

  And then what happened afterwards was just as expected, and the two of them were entangled for the rest of their lives. Decades later, a reporter asked Teresa Teng, "Miss Deng, back then Mr. Wang was just an unknown kid, while you were already famous in the music industry. Why did you choose to be with him?" After hearing this question from the reporter, Teresa Teng showed a nostalgic expression and said: "You don't understand him as a person, he's like a puzzle that constantly attracts you to get closer, but once you get close, you'll find that he suddenly becomes a black hole that you can't escape from."

  Just then, during the brief silence of the three people, Lin Fengjiao's voice suddenly rang out in the hall, "Uncle Zuo, Sister Lijun, dinner is ready." As she spoke, Lin Fengjiao walked over with a dish of braised fish and tofu.

  Zuo Hongyuan took a look and saw that it was his favorite hometown dish, so he quickly invited Deng Lijun and Wang Wei to sit down, saying: "Lijun, Awei, you two are in luck today! Your master's culinary skills are exceptional. Today, let me introduce you to the specialty dishes of Anhui."

  Teresa Teng, however, asked Zuo Hongyuan and Wang Wei to sit down first, while she followed Lin Fengjiao to the kitchen to serve dishes. The two walked side by side. "Fengjiao, is it true that Wei hasn't turned 14 this year?" "Yes, sister Li, Wei's birthday is in October, he'll only be 14 after his birthday."

  "Oh, I heard that Ah Wei is still writing." "En, Li Jun sister, you don't know, writing can make a lot of money, you don't know that it's the first time I've seen so much money."

  "Oh, sister Lijun, you guys make a lot of money from singing, right?" Lin Fengjiao asked curiously. "It's okay, just very tiring, every spare moment is spent on it. Sometimes we record songs all night and only sleep for a few hours." Teresa Teng said with a smile. "So hardworking!" "En, oh, Ajiao can you tell me what Awai was like when he was little? I really want to know what geniuses were like when they were young." Teresa Teng asked quietly, sneaking a glance at Wang Wei.

  Lin Fengjiao heard Deng Lijun ask about Wang Wei's childhood, and smiled softly: "Lijun sister, you've finally asked the right person. As for Wei's childhood appearance, no one knows better than me. Let me tell you..."

  I'm a bit under the weather, so sorry everyone. I stayed up late to finish an extra chapter. That's all for now. Wishing you all a happy weekend. And with a thick face, I'll ask again: please give me another recommendation, and if you have evaluation votes, give me two.
