"It will be really impolite if Mr Dai takes away your opportunity to perform on the stage! After all, you are the president of this charity foundation! I will never allow this happen!" Yap said sarcastically.

Daiyu didnt say anything. All he did was to smile and sit there. He was letting Yap to make decisions for him.

"What do you mean by that?" Chen squinted and asked.

"Mr. Chen, you were planning to sing Wukong right? I think you should just go along with your plan!" Yap smiled.

"That is not okay at allThe original singer; Mr Dai is here. It will be a complete joke if I sing his signature song in front of him! Plus, my voice is not that good. I dont want to embarrass myself!" Chen shook and said humbly.

"Mr Chen, you are too humble! I think you have put in some time practicing this song. You will definitely not embarrass yourself! Im looking forward to your awesome performance!" Yap looked like he was doing Chen a great favor.

Actually, he was laughing Chen inside his heart, "I want you to embarrass yourself! The bigger the embarrassment the better!"

Xiaoyao started to get worried as well, "Xiaobei, you have spent time to prepare for your performance! You must not change it!"

Before the start of this charity dinner, Xiaoyao had reminded Chen about the performance. She didnt want Chen to embarrass himself in front of so many important persons. Changing the plan last minute is definitely not a good idea. The whole charity dinner will be ruined if Chen makes a fool of himself on the stage. Xiaoyao even started to regret asking Chen to perform tonight. She had no one to blame but herself. Also, she did make a promise to the kids at the orphanage. Its too late to feel regret right now.

"ButMy voice is really not that greatIm afraid that people might laugh at me later" Chen said shyly.

Lan smiled and consoled Chen, "Dont worry. We will not laugh at youYou are not a professional singer, thus, its totally okay that your voice is not perfect."

Wu was really envious of Chen when he saw his goddess acting gently towards Chen. However, as a good friend of Chen, he supported Chen without any hesitation, "Xiaobei! Go for it! I believe you can definitely do it!"

"Haih"

Chen heard, sighed, and said, "But, not only is my voice not that great, I might forget the lyrics of the song when I go on stage. I just need more time to prepare myself"

Yap couldnt hold himself anymore. He almost laughed it out loud. He wanted to see Chen embarrass himself on the stage. So, he started to imagine all kind of methods of embarrassing Chen later when he saw Chen being uncertain.

The elders did not see anything going on behind the scenes. They started to encourage Chen.

"Xiaobei! Dont overthink it! No one in this world knows how to do everything when they are born to this world! Embarrassing yourself is not as scary as you think! You will definitely grow when you are willing to try and learn! And, you just keep on practice to perfect it!" Lan Zhengguo smiled and said.

"Dont be afraid! A young man like you should have the guts to try everything!" Murong Tian said in a deep voice.

"Thats right! You will grow when you try something new! You will remain on the same ground if you refuse to step out your comfort zone!" Wu Zhebang said.

"IndeedI understand now. But I'm still worried that my voice might disappoint the guests here" Chen was really nervous. It was like he was preparing to go for a war.

Yap looked at Chen condescendingly. He was actually feeling happy secretly inside his heart. He said, "Mr Chen, quit hesitating. I will ask Daiyu to perform the song after your performance. So that, you will be able to find your weakness! Then, the audience will not feel disappointed as well.

"But" Chen tried to make himself look innocent.

*Cough!*

*Cough!*

Han frowned and said seriously, "I dont want to ruin the charity dinner but seems like everyone here had forgotten the theme and purpose of this charity dinner! Doing charity is the main focus here! Performance is secondary! Dont defeat its purpose!"

"That right! Elder Han is right!"

Yap nodded his head, turn around, and said coldly, "Get on the stage if you are a real man! I will not force you if you are not a man! Dont waste our time!"

"I might be able to sing well and might even forget the lyrics. But, I will not tolerate those who say that Im not a real man! I must perform on the stage!"

Chen raised his eyebrows and put on an evil smile secretly.

At the same time, Yap started to smile coldly and thought, "I will definitely embarrass you with all my strength if you have the balls to go on the stage and perform! Hehehe"

After that, the charity dinner went on as planned. First, Chen was being invited to go onto the stage to give a speech. The speech was prepared by Xiaoyao. Thus, it was really encouraging. Everyone clapped when Chen finished with his speech.

Soon after that, the ceremony of donating money to three organizations finally began.

[Green Vine Orphanage received 8 million!]

[North mountain primary school received 8 million]

[South lake elderly home received 8 million]

Then, Chen signed the donation agreement and took pictures with three representatives from the organizations. Lastly, Chen will be interviewed by the famous newscaster. It will be published in the newspaper tomorrow. And, the public will be able to know more about the charity. The whole thing went on smoothly. Chen perfectly executed his role as the president of Xiaoyao charity.

He managed to earn the respect of all those people from upper society. Even Elder Han kept on complimenting Chen. There will be final donation round after the performance. The reason for putting it after the performance is pretty simple. People will donate more after they have good food and enjoy a good performance.

"Everyone, according to the flow of this charity dinner, I was supposed to perform something on the stage."

Chen stood on the stage and announced it loudly with the microphone, "I will sing a song called; Wukong!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the song that Chen was going to sing.

"What? Am I hearing it wrongly? He wants to sing Wukong?"

"That Daiyus signature song! The original singer is here! He has balls!"

"Is he trying to catch our attention by fooling himself on the stage?!"

"Well, he is definitely going to embarrass himself! Lets sit tight and watch!"

.....

Yap smile is getting bigger and bigger when he heard the comments from the guests.

"Mr Dai, please sing the song one more time after that kid finished performing! I want him to be embarrassed of himself!"

Yap whispered in Daiyus ears, "I will reward you abundantly if you perform well on the stage."

"Master Yap, dont worry. Its as easy as pie to embarrass that kid!" Daiyu grinned. However, he was completely stunned when Chens voice traveled to his ears.

[The stars fell into the river and the road is long]
