Chapter 66: Helping

~7 min read 1,376 words

"Who knows." Chen Siqi said immediately, "However, someone actually came looking for you to record a show again. It seems your heroic deed of saving the beauty has made your career revive."

"Heroic deed of saving the beauty... such an old-fashioned term coming out of your mouth sounds so strange."

"Isn't it?" Chen Siqi hummed lightly, "Forget it, that's not important. Which show are you participating in?"

"Why, do you want to watch it?"

"You wish. I'm just helping you brainstorm." Chen Siqi said, "This song of yours is the theme song of the competition you were in three years ago, right? No changes at all, singing an old song again, does anyone want to listen?"

Lu Yan He: "Can't you hear the difference between what I sang today and what I sang three years ago?"

He was full of the feeling that he sang much better than the original body.

Chen Siqi's reaction made Lu Yan He a bit frustrated.

Could it be that he thinks too highly of himself?

Chen Siqi clicked her tongue and said: "No matter how big the difference is, one, you didn't rearrange the music, and two, you didn't completely change your voice, how big can it be?"

Chen Siqi's words completely hit Lu Yan He.

"Why sing this song?"

"The agent chose it."

"Heh, maybe it's because there's no money to buy the copyright." Chen Siqi said, "I'm asking you, which show are you on? Let me see what type of show it is, and I'll rearrange the music for you."

"Wait, you can also arrange music?" Lu Yan He looked at Chen Siqi in shock, feeling bewildered.

Chen Siqi nodded: "I've learned music since I was a child, and I also arrange music myself."

"I really couldn't tell, and I haven't seen you perform at the school's art festival."

"What's there to perform? I can't sing." Chen Siqi said.

Lu Yan He asked: "Then what do you use to arrange music?"

"I have a set of equipment at home." Chen Siqi said, "When I was learning music before, I liked arranging music, and my dad bought me a set."

Lu Yan He's eyes lit up instantly.

"Wait, you... then do me a favor." He said.

"Hmm?" Chen Siqi looked at him in confusion, "What favor do you want me to do? Me helping you rearrange the music is already a huge favor, don't be greedy."

Lu Yan He said: "I actually have a melody in my mind, but I don't know how to arrange it, and I don't know how to read music. If you can help me get it out, I won't have to sing 'Dream-Chasing Youth'."

"You're someone who has sung on a professional stage, how can you not even know how to read music?"

"I don't." Lu Yan He admitted honestly.

"Then where did your melody come from?"

"Hummed it myself, just hummed it out."

Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yan He full of doubt, "Are you sure? Not every tune hummed out can become a song."

Lu Yan He nodded and said: "Let's try it."

"Then hum it, let me listen."

Thus, Lu Yan He finally exerted the effect of the transmigrator's golden finger for the first time.

He hummed the song he had racked his brains to remember, from beginning to end, very smoothly. After all, it was a song he had heard many times and was very familiar with.

Back then, this original song became popular all over the internet as soon as it was broadcast on a show, becoming a classic song for the graduation season.

Lu Yan He thought for a long time about which song he could arrange in his own name that wouldn't be too earth-shattering, and combined with his identity as a high school senior, he thought of this one.

After Lu Yan He finished humming the tune, he looked at Chen Siqi and asked: "How is it?"

Chen Siqi put away her shocked expression and turned to look at him with a more complex gaze.

"Is this a melody you thought of yourself?"

"Hmm."

"You haven't learned music?"

"Do I look like someone who has learned music?"

Chen Siqi looked him up and down suspiciously and asked again: "It's not something you plagiarized from somewhere, is it?"

Lu Yan He felt a bit guilty for a moment.

But he said without hesitation: "Even if it's plagiarism, it's plagiarizing a song from another dimension. If you can find such a melody in this world, I'll take your surname."

Chen Siqi: "... So what if you take my surname? Is it a grievance to have the surname Chen?"

Lu Yan He: "... Is that the point?"

Chen Siqi rolled her eyes, took out her phone, opened a software, and said: "Hum a tune now, and I'll write a line for you. Have you thought of the lyrics?"

Lu Yan He: "Thought about it, almost there."

"Then just sing according to the lyrics, come on, the lunch break is only an hour and a half, hurry up."

Lu Yan He never expected that Chen Siqi would have this skill. After she wrote down the music score for the whole song, she told him that after she went back tonight, she would help him arrange it.

Fortunately, the arrangement of the original song is not complicated either.

Lu Yan He said: "I have a rehearsal after nine tonight, can you arrange it before then?"

Chen Siqi looked at him with two rolled eyes: "I'm doing you such a big favor, how much money do you think you have to pay me?"

Lu Yan He said sincerely: "Friendship is priceless."

Chen Siqi's rolled eyes were like waves overturning a boat.

But she didn't say anything else.

In the afternoon, school ended.

Lu Yan He still hasn't received any calls or messages from Zhou Ping'an. Obviously, Zhou Ping'an doesn't intend to arrange a car for him to take him to the rehearsal.

If it's not arranged, then it's not arranged. It's the same if he takes a taxi there himself.

His rehearsal time is 9:40 PM. He will leave at 8:20 PM and arrive half an hour early, which is about right.

Therefore, Lu Yan He stayed at school for dinner.

Seeing him eating dinner at school for a change, Li Pengfei dragged him to the third floor of the cafeteria for stir-fry.

"Aren't you going home for dinner?" Lu Yan He asked.

"You're going to rehearsal, you can't eat, so my dad said another day. He's busy as hell with work, how would he have time to accompany me for dinner." Li Pengfei said, "When are you going to rehearsal later?"

"After the first evening self-study session." The first evening self-study session ends at 8:10 PM, which is just right.

Li Pengfei: "I really envy you, your life is much more interesting than ours."

"Ah?" Lu Yan He looked at him in surprise, "Interesting?"

"Look at us, trapped in this classroom every day, unlike you, who can go record a show and have an artist's life." Li Pengfei said.

"To be honest, I'm not sure about the future. Right now, I'm going to record this show, not because it's interesting, but because I'm short of money. If I wasn't short of money, I would definitely stay in the classroom and read." Lu Yan He said, "Compared to temporary interest, I hope more to get into a good university and have an interesting life forever."

"Damn, what you said sounds just like what my dad says. Tsk, actually, whether I go to college or not doesn't have much impact on me anyway. My dad's company doesn't need me to inherit it, my brother is there. I can live happily even if I just drift along."

"But you will still feel it's not interesting."

"Ah?"

"Didn't you just envy that my life is more interesting than yours?" Lu Yan He said, "You have no pressure now, you're also drifting along, and you're not unhappy, but you feel your life is not interesting."

"Damn, what you said makes so much sense." Li Pengfei was shocked.

Fifth update! Thank you everyone! Wishing everyone a Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, and may your family be happy! ===== CHAPTER 67 =====
