Chapter 11
Actually, this song is the first one she sang after returning. On the surface, it describes the separation of lovers with a bit of fantasy, but both the lyrics and melody are simple.
However, it hides a lot of depth. The I in the lyrics represents the present her, and the you is not someone else but her, the past her.
So, when she sings this song, the emotions she injects into it make it formidable. This song became the first in that singing competition, breaking rumours and proving herself.
Later, after the success of the show, she officially returned as a singer, and this song became a must-sing at her concerts.
This song is very good.
Chu Qingchan took a deep breath. Although shes not a singer, at this moment, she only had one thoughtto acquire this song.
I want to buy it. What do you think?
You just said Im quite talented.
I think you really are talented now. Your voice is good. Although I have an average fan base, I still have some connections. Come and be a singer.
Chu Qingchans eyes were different from just now, suddenly more lively. Even though her face remained expressionless, Xu Lin couldnt help but suspectcan she even smile?
Forget about being a singer, but if you need this song, then Ill give it to you.
No, a song is not just verbally given. Buying it also involves copyright issues. Youre not a professional, but the copyright price for a song wont be less than $50,000.
So, you plan to spend $50,000 to acquire the copyright?
Yeah.
Theres no need. I said its a gift for you.
Xu Lin didnt accept it because this song is one of his favourites, originally hers. He didnt need the money, and he had other ways to earn it.
Its a matter of principle for me. Dont bother talking about money. I dont need this song. Besides, for lyrics and melody, I can only give you the lyrics; for composing, I cant do that. Youll have to figure it out yourself.
Seeing Xu Lin so insistent, she didnt know what to say. He had been helping her all along, and now he was refusing the money she offered.
He seemed like a kind little boy, but not too inexperienced. Talking to him, you wouldnt feel like youre conversing with a high school student. A mysterious persondo talented individuals tend to be like this?
Besides this song, I have other songs, but youll need to purchase those. Of course, if you dont want to be a singer, buying songs wouldnt be of much use.
If your other songs are at this level, I might consider trying
At this moment, a shout from an elderly man interrupted her: Food is ready, Linzi; tidy up the table.
Coming!
A few minutes later, the four of them sat around a small table. Although it was a small table, it accommodated four home-cooked dishes and a winter melon soup with meatballs.
Theres winter melon soup; its been a while. Xu Lin saw the central basin, picked up a ladle, and began serving into his grandmothers bowl.
Serve the guest first.
He swallowed and ladled soup into Chu Qingchans bowl, and she quickly took it, her fingers brushing against his.
Then a voice passed by his ear. Xu Lin was now surethis system is definitely an LSP. It seems only pretty girls meet your criteria!
In the past few days, he has tried a bit. Not a single guy met the standards. Accidentally, he encountered over a dozen girls, mostly class representatives.
None of them triggered the favorability standard, and these girls were not unattractive. In fact, they were quite pretty, scoring at least 5 or 6 according to the system. But it just didnt work.
Whats wrong? Seeing him spacing out, Chu Qingchan softly called.
Nothing. Oh, dont eat this chilli-stir-fried pork; it might not be good for your recovery.
Xu Lin snapped back to reality, casually saying this while arranging the bowls and chopsticks in front of her.
Chu Qingchan blinks in surprise, looking at the handsome face just a few centimetres away. Unconsciously, a small smile appeared on her lips.
Okay, got it.
Noticing her subtle smile, Xu Lin couldnt help but mutter to himself, Maybe she has some facial condition, but she looks strangely attractive when she smiles.
The elderly couple across the table watched the two as if seeing their younger selves, and unintentionally, smiles appeared on their faces.
After finishing lunch, Xu Lin planned to go out and find someone to clean up the yard for this big star. The rain outside seemed to have stopped.
Mr. Xu, dont bother going. I dont plan to stay here. I want to go to the city first and buy my own house. Ill deal with this place later.
Ms. Chu, feel free, but I dont have any transportation to take you to the city. The bus comes twice a day.
Then well go tomorrow. Are you going back tomorrow too? Its good if we can go together. By the way, as a local, help me check out some neighbourhoods.
I start school the day after tomorrow.
Do you want to leave me, a weak woman, in this unfamiliar place?
Her clear pronunciation made Xu Lin dumbfounded. If youre going to act cute, at least make a proper expression. Whats with the poker face? Isnt it too perfunctory?
This is my style. Making expressions is tiring, but being cute isnt just about expressions and voice.
She tilted her body, reclining on the sofa, curling up in the corner like a cat.
Her oversized windbreaker fell open, and the shirt slightly opened, revealing smooth collarbones and a slender neck.
The wide-leg pants moved up with her curling, exposing her fair calves and small feet in his view, igniting a fiery sensation within him.
Cough, alright, alright. Youve even put your feet on the sofa. You really treat this place like your own home.
Seeing Xu Lins reddened ears, Chu Qingchan knew she had won. Indeed, he was just a little devil.
But the next moment, a warmth surged up from her ankle as the big boy in front of her grabbed her foot.
What are you doing?
Dont act like this all the time. I never said Im a gentleman.
Xu Lin became serious at this moment. Being teased like this easily ignited his youthful fire; after all, hes a teenager going through puberty.
Why are you grabbing my foot? Do you have some weird fetishes?
Yes.
Xu Lin slowly lowered his head, getting closer to her foot. She felt her heart racing as he approached.
She actually hated people touching her, but at this moment, when this boy, who was several years younger than her, wanted to kiss her feet, she didnt feel that uncomfortable. On the contrary
But just when he was about to touch her feet, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Chu Qingchan, whose cheeks were flushed and nervous with a hint of excitement. Then he took a deep breath.
