Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Fake Boyfriend Online
The entire MV was filled with too many distressing scenes, and everyone understood why Chen Ningxue chose to release this song in America instead of domestically!
But what gnawed at everyoneâs heart was the question, whether the little boy lying in the pool of blood at the end was real. And so, a huge number of netizens flooded Chen Ningxueâs Weibo, wanting to find out the answer.
Although everyone believed the MV portrayed fiction, the last scene was just too heart-wrenching, so it left everyone on edge.
Yet, Chen Ningxueâs Weibo remained silent, and even the official Weibo account of Meizi Entertainment made no mention of the MV.

Though no answer was obtained, it didnât deter everyoneâs affection for the song.
Apart from the numerous words of praise on the internet, there were also some negative comments, questioning why the song was written in English, and whether there was an element of worshipping foreign things. There were accusations of pointless complaints, and forced sorrow for the sake of writing new lyrics!
However, such remarks were quickly submerged without causing any ripples.
A respected domestic music critic also stepped forward: "Itâs hard for me to imagine that âTellmewhyâ was written by a twenty-four-year-old singer. I have to say, the song truly shook me! While other female singers are indulging in the insipid music of love, Chen Ningxue can no longer simply be defined as a pop singer! Sheâs like a musical philosopher, constantly reflecting and exploring!"
"At the start, Chen Ningxueâs voice is clear and light, filled with a compassion for humanity. If it were just that, it wouldnât have had such a great impact on me. What was earth-shattering was the childâs voice that followed, clear and pure, and with the backdrop of war, it was like a sword questioning me, Tellmewhy! That includes everyone, including myself, Tellmewhy! We also want to find the answer!"
Many also believe that although Chen Ningxue was a popular singer in Huaxia, she lacked true depth! But this song alone is enough to deify her in todayâs music scene!
One song to deification! The thoughts contained in this song go beyond what a twenty-four-year-old girl would know, freedom, equality, fraternity, dedication, and struggle!
The Chen Family, Chen Biao watched the MV for the song quietly and then let out a soft sigh, showing a relieved expression on his aged face.
He was fond of Chen Ningxue but was disappointed with her choice to become a singer, an entertainer for othersâa direction that did not align with the values of the Chen Family legacy.
But once Chen Ningxue had made up her mind, Chen Biao had no choice but to let it be, though deep down, he was still dissatisfied with her decision!
However, after watching the MV, Chen Biao was reassured to find that the red spirit of the family was still preserved in her!
"Half a year, I never expected you to do something so earth-shattering in half a year. Very well, you are indeed worthy of being Chen Biaoâs granddaughter, excellent!"
Soon, Meizi Entertainmentâs official Weibo responded to Chen Ningxueâs âTellmewhyâ!
All the scenes in the MV were personally filmed by Chen Ningxue, ensuring a hundred percent reality. For sourcing material, Chen Ningxue travelled through dozens of countries and regions over half a year, ultimately completing the creation of this song in the ruins of a Middle Eastern Battlefield!
And the boy who sang, he was just an ordinary boy from the war zone. After singing the song, their area was overtaken by the Freedom Organization, and the boy was killed by stray bullets!
Once the announcement was made, everyone fell silent! It was hard for them to imagine that a fragile girl had traversed nearly half the globe alone, through slums, across poaching fields, and into the smoke-filled battlefield, all to write a song, to express a demand, an appeal!
Publicity stunt? Pandering for attention? If everything announced by Meizi Entertainment is true, Chen Ningxueâs actions no longer represent a singer but embody a spirit of peace and love!
At the eye of the storm, Chen Ningxue was busy shuttling through various high-end menâs fashion stores with Ling Feng.
"You need to put on a good performance today. You absolutely canât give us away!" Chen Ningxue said seriously, "If my grandfather figures it out, then I am truly done for!"
"Donât worry!" Ling Feng replied, "After all, I do have a girlfriend now. Dealing with your grandfather is just a piece of cake for me."
As she picked out suits, Chen Ningxue said, "My grandfather is no ordinary person. Donât let his age fool you - heâs craftier than a fox! Even my father behaves like an obedient child in front of him, not daring to boast at all!"
Ling Feng gently shook his head. To be honest, when he found out that Chen Ningxue was the granddaughter of Chen Biao and one of the few remaining Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pillars of the Huaxia military, Ling Feng even doubted reality!
Who could imagine the granddaughter of a high-ranking military officer would become a singer? Wasnât that a joke?
Ling Feng even had doubts that if Chen Biao discovered he was an imposter, he might just pull out a gun and finish him off!
But now it was too late to back out, so Ling Feng could only put on a wry smile and soldier on.
"But you donât have to worry too much!" Seeing the helplessness on Ling Fengâs face, Chen Ningxue felt a bit apologetic, "My grandfather likes me the most. Even if we get found out, at worst, Iâll just marry Lin Song. You definitely wonât get in trouble!"
Ling Feng shook his head and said, "Iâm not worried about that. Iâm just thinking, is it really appropriate for the two of us to deceive an old man full of expectations?"
Chen Ningxueâs movements paused and then she said irritably, "I know itâs not appropriate, but what can I do? Every time I return, they rush me to find a partner. Iâm only twenty-four. Whatâs the rush?"
With that, Chen Ningxue handed a suit to Ling Feng, "Try this one on?"
Ling Feng took the suit and went into the fitting room. Three minutes later, Ling Feng came out looking sharp. The tailored suit draped elegantly over his stalwart frame, lending him a uniquely distinguished air.
"Thatâs the one," Chen Ningxue decided, ready to pay.
Ling Feng waved his hand, "It feels like Iâm living off a woman when you pay. Iâll take care of it!"
With that, Ling Feng handed over his credit card!
"Not bad, youâve got spirit! Now I feel keeping you as my kept man isnât a bad option," Chen Ningxue said with a teasing smile. "How about it? Name your price!"
Ling Feng gave Chen Ningxue a blank look, "You want to keep me? Iâm afraid you canât afford it!"
"Try me. I donât believe thereâs a price Chen Ningxue canât pay!" Chen Ningxue said with feigned bravado.
"Give me a child every year, and Iâll barely agree to it!" Ling Feng said with a wicked smile, "Otherwise, forget it!"
