My Son Might Be A Villain

“Su Ran, tell big sister the truth, did you run into a talent scout?” asked Xiao Xia secretively as she dragged Su Ran to one side.

“Ugh, no….”

Even when Su Ran denied it, Xiao Xia still didn’t believe her.

She must have ran into a scout or was planning on switching gear to become a star, an internet influencer, or record some music or something.

Surely Su Ran was a bit on the older side, but if one gave her a close look, one could still see that she was still quite attractive, easily better than half the stars out there. Perhaps, she really had some crazy encounters.

“Don’t worry, if you really become famous one day, I promise I will not tell anyone that you worked here before.”

As Xiao Xia was saying that, Hong-jie returned in her high heels. She didn’t look very happy and even less so when she saw Su Ran who ditched them halfway yesterday.

“Su Ran? You sure ran away fast last night. What do you want now?”

“On, cousin, Su Ran said she’s quitting. She came to tell you that.”

“Quit? Who? Su Ran?” Hearing that Su Ran was quitting, the surprised look on Xiao Hongmei was exactly the same as the one on Xiao Xia just a bit earlier.

But Xiao Hongmei quickly recollected herself.

“Alright, leave then,” said Hong-jie indifferently.

“But, let’s be clear here. If you leave now, you are not going to get this month’s table fees.”

“That’s fine.” Su Ran’s biggest goal right now was to end this bizarre life that belonged to the original owner. Money was only secondary.

Even the original owner didn’t know how much she made in a month, let alone Su Ran. But one thing she knew for sure was that it wouldn’t be enough to cover the loan sharks’ amounts.

Xiao Xia grabbed onto Xiao Hongmei after Su Ran had left.

“Cousin, how come you let her go just like that?” That wasn’t like her.

“Tsk, that Su Ran?” A look of contempt crept onto Xiao Hongmei’s face. “I bet you she’ll be back in less than a week and beg me to take her back.

“That’s the way this business works. I will decide if I want to take her back then.”

What Hong-jie didn’t know right now was that the Su Ran that she was so sure would return never came back after a week. The very next time she saw the name “Su Ran” was on the internet search keywords, with the word “HOT” next to it at that.

“Big sister!”

As soon as Su Ran walked outside the bar, Li Xue ran up behind her and called out to her.

“You are talking to me?” Su Ran looked at the young girl who was barely older than her instant son, a bit confused.

“Yes, yes. Is big sister the musician hired by the shop?”

Li Xue was just here to help out during holidays and help with some clean up and maybe passing out some flyers in the daytime. She had almost no contact with the night workers like “Su Ran”, so she didn’t know about “Su Ran”’s identity.

“No, I am not.”

“Oh, um...”

“Is there anything else?”

“That, I just want to ask, what’s the name of the piece that big sister was just playing? It was so good!” said Li Xue emotionally.

She had never heard of any of the pieces that this big sister was playing earlier.

How was she so sure? Because they were so good that had she heard of them before, she certainly would have remembered.

She was so bummed that she didn’t get to add them to her playlist!

“No.”

“Huh?”

“These songs have not been released yet.”

“Oh? You mean….”

“But they should be soon.” Su Ran smiled when she saw the disappointment on her face.

“Really?”

“Really.” If she didn’t even have that much confidence in herself, Su Ran wouldn’t have the title of a “master”. The only thing she wasn’t sure about was who would be singing these songs.
