"Who knows?" Chen Siqi said immediately, "But, surprisingly, someone asked you to record a show again. It seems that your heroic deeds of saving the damsel in distress have brought your career back to life."
"Hero saves the damsel in distress...it's so strange to hear such a cliché phrase coming out of your mouth."
"Isn't it?" Chen Siqi snorted. "Forget it, it's not important. Which show are you going to participate in?"
"Why, you want to see it?"
"You're overthinking it. I'm just trying to give you some advice," Chen Siqi said. "This song is the theme song for your competition from three years ago, right? It's unchanged. It's just a rendition of the same old song. Anyone want to hear it?"
Lu Yanhe: "Can't you tell the difference between what I sang today and what I sang three years ago?"
He was still convinced that he sang much better than the original.
Chen Siqi's reaction made Lu Yanhe feel a little frustrated.
Is it because he feels too good about himself?
Chen Siqi tutted her words and said, "No matter how big the difference is, if I haven't re-arranged the music and haven't completely changed my voice, how big can it be?"
Chen Siqi's words completely devastated Lu Yanhe.
"Why sing this song?"
"The agent chose it."
"Oh, maybe it's because you don't have the money to buy the copyright." Chen Siqi said, "Let me ask you, which show are you on? I'll see what kind of show it is and help you re-arrange the music."
"Wait, you can also compose music?" Lu Yanhe looked at Chen Siqi in shock, feeling stunned.
Chen Siqi nodded: "I have been learning music since I was a child, and I usually compose my own music."
"I really didn't notice. I haven't seen you perform at the school's art festival either."
"What's there to perform? I can't sing," said Chen Siqi.
Lu Yanhe asked, "So what kind of arrangement did you use?"
"I have a set of equipment at home," Chen Siqi said. "When I was studying music, I liked arranging music, so my dad bought me one."
Lu Yanhe's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wait, you...then do me a favor," he said.
"Hmm?" Chen Siqi looked at him in confusion. "What do you want me to do for you? It would be a huge favor for me to re-arrange the music for you. Don't ask for too much."
Lu Yanhe said, "I actually have a melody in my mind, but I don't know how to arrange it. I don't know the music score. If you can help me figure it out, I won't have to sing 'Dream Chaser'."
"You've sung on a professional stage before, and you don't even know how to read music?"
"No." Lu Yanhe admitted honestly.
"So where do you get your melody?"
"I just hummed it."
Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe with suspicion, "Are you sure? Just humming a tune doesn't make it a song."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Let's give it a try."
"Then hum it, and I'll listen."
Thus, Lu Yanhe finally made use of the time traveler's golden finger for the first time.
He hummed the song that he had racked his brains to remember, and it was very smooth from the beginning to the end. After all, it was a song that he had heard many times and was very familiar with.
As soon as this original song was broadcast on a certain program, it became popular all over the Internet and became a classic song of graduation season.
Lu Yanhe thought for a long time about which song he could compose under his own name that would not be too groundbreaking. Considering his status as a senior high school student, he came up with this one.
After Lu Yanhe finished humming the song, he looked at Chen Siqi and asked, "How was it?"
Chen Siqi put away her shocked expression and looked at him with a more complicated look.
"Is this a melody you came up with yourself?"
"Um."
"You've never studied music?"
"Do I look like I've ever studied music?"
Chen Siqi looked at him suspiciously and asked, "You didn't plagiarize it from somewhere, did you?"
Lu Yanhe suddenly felt a little guilty.
But he said without hesitation: "Even if it is plagiarism, it is plagiarism of a song from another time and space. If you can find such a melody in this world, I will take your surname."
Chen Siqi: "...What's wrong with you having the same last name as me? Is it unfair to you to be named Chen?"
Lu Yanhe: "...Is this the key point?"
Chen Siqi's eyes rolled back. She took out her phone, opened an app, and said, "Hum a song now and I'll write a line for you. Have you thought of the lyrics yet?"
Lu Yanhe: "I've thought about it, it's almost done."
"Then just sing according to the lyrics. Come on, the lunch break is only an hour and a half, hurry up."
-
Lu Yanhe never thought that Chen Siqi had this skill. After she wrote down the score of the whole song, she told him that she would help him compose it after she returned home tonight.
Fortunately, the original arrangement of this song is not complicated.
Lu Yanhe said, "I have a colorful rehearsal at 9 pm. Can you finish it before then?"
Chen Siqi rolled her eyes at him and said, "I've done you such a big favor, how much do you think you should pay me?"
Lu Yanhe said sincerely, "Friendship is priceless."
Chen Siqi's two white eyes were like waves rolling over a boat.
But he didn't say anything else.
-
In the afternoon, after school.
Lu Yanhe hasn't received any calls or text messages from Zhou Ping'an until now. Obviously, Zhou Ping'an has no intention of arranging a car for him to take him to rehearsal.
If there is no arrangement, then there is no arrangement. It will be the same if he takes a taxi there.
His rehearsal time was 9:40 pm, and he left at 8:20 pm, so he arrived half an hour early, which was almost the right time.
Therefore, Lu Yanhe stayed in school to have dinner.
Seeing that he rarely had dinner at school, Li Pengfei took him to the third floor of the cafeteria to eat some stir-fried dishes.
"Aren't you going home for dinner?" Lu Yanhe asked.
"You have to go to rehearsal and can't eat, so my dad said we can do it another day. He's so busy with work that he doesn't have time to have dinner with me." Li Pengfei said, "When are you going to rehearsal later?"
"Let's finish the first evening self-study session." The first evening self-study session ends at 8:10 p.m., which is just the right time.
Li Pengfei: "I really envy you. Your life is much more interesting than ours."
"Huh?" Lu Yanhe looked at him in surprise. "Interesting?"
"Look at us, we are trapped in this classroom every day, unlike you, who can go to record a program and live the life of an artist," said Li Pengfei.
"To be honest, I can't say for sure in the future. I'm not recording this show right now because it's fun. I'm short of money. If I hadn't been short of money, I would definitely stay in the classroom and study," Lu Yanhe said. "Rather than having a moment of fun, I hope to get into a good university and have a meaningful life."
"Damn, that sounds like what my dad said. Tsk, actually, whether I go to college or not doesn't really affect me that much. I don't need to inherit my dad's company. I have my brother, so I can live happily even if I just eat and drink for free."
“But you’ll still find it boring.”
"ah?"
"Weren't you just envious that my life was more interesting than yours?" Lu Yanhe said, "You don't have any pressure now, you're just living a life of idleness and happiness, but you think your life is boring."
"Oh my god, what you said makes a lot of sense." Li Pengfei was suddenly shocked.
Fifth update! Thank you everyone! I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and happiness to your family!
