Chapter 1029: The most important thing is the emotional foundation

The Spring Festival Gala was broadcast live to 1.4 billion viewers nationwide, so Ye Chen's family had just finished watching Gu Qiuyi's program in front of the TV, while Gu Qiuyi had also just finished her performance and arrived backstage.

At this moment, she couldn't care about changing her clothes and hurriedly sent a WeChat message to Ye Chen first.

What she cared about most was Ye Chen's opinion of her performance.

Originally, the Spring Festival Gala director team hoped she could sing another one of her famous songs, a song about friendship.

Gu Qiuyi had also long promised the director team she would sing that song, but after meeting Ye Chen again, she had the idea of changing the song.

Therefore, she negotiated with the director team, expressing her hope to change the song.

At first, the Spring Festival Gala director team was very reluctant.

This was mainly because the Spring Festival Gala performance was always very meticulous and cautious; things like changing songs temporarily almost never happened.

However, Gu Qiuyi kept striving for it, and eventually, the program team saw that she really hoped to sing today's song, so they had to compromise.

The reason Gu Qiuyi chose to sing this song called "First Love" today was also because she wanted to sing it for Ye Chen.

There was a line of lyrics in this song that she wrote specifically for Ye Chen, and that line was: From the first moment I saw you, you were deeply imprinted in my heart. I traveled through the crowd and traveled thousands of miles to find you, just to tell you that in this lifetime, I will never leave you again.

How could Ye Chen not feel the affection in Gu Qiuyi's song?

But he could only pretend not to know and replied to Gu Qiuyi, "I watched your performance, it was great! You sang very well!"

Gu Qiuyi was overjoyed and sent a message: "Brother Ye Chen, this song... was written for you..."

Ye Chen asked in surprise, "Did you write this song yourself?"

"Yes." Gu Qiuyi said, "I wrote both the lyrics and the music, is it okay?"

Ye Chen sent her a thumbs-up emoji and praised, "I really didn't expect that not only do you sing well, but you can also write songs yourself, it's amazing!"

Gu Qiuyi sent a playful emoji with her tongue sticking out and said, "I learned the piano from my mom when I was young, and then I would hum while playing the piano when I had nothing to do. Slowly, I tried writing a few songs. After they were published, the response felt pretty good, so I wrote quite a few more one after another."

Ye Chen praised sincerely, "It's really great! Unparalleled!"

Gu Qiuyi was satisfied and said, "Brother Ye Chen, this song was written specifically for you a few years ago. At that time, I hadn't found you yet, so the lyrics were a different version. After finding you, I made some adjustments to the lyrics, which is why this version exists now."

Ye Chen was moved in his heart and replied to her, "Thank you, Nannan, thank you for always remembering me, and thank you even more for doing so much for me all these years."

Gu Qiuyi sent a shy emoji and said, "These are all things I should do, who told me to be your child bride since I was young..."

Ye Chen was instantly speechless.

The betrothal since childhood; calling her a child bride wasn't an exaggeration.

At this time, Gu Qiuyi sent another message: "Brother Ye Chen, I won't talk to you for now, Mom and Dad are waiting for me to go back home for New Year's Eve dinner, and then stay up for the New Year together. I have to go now."

Ye Chen knew that every actor participating in the Spring Festival Gala didn't have it easy. They participated in the performance on New Year's Eve. If they were local actors in Yanjing, it was relatively better. After the performance ended, they would immediately change clothes and rush home to accompany their families for the festival.

Some actors from other places were more sad; in order to be on the Spring Festival Gala, they could only spend the festival alone in a foreign land.

Fortunately, Gu Qiuyi's home was in Yanjing, and her performance time slot was very good. Rushing back now, it wasn't past New Year's Eve yet, and she could still stay up for the New Year with her family until 12 o'clock.

Therefore, Ye Chen replied to her, "Then hurry back to accompany your uncle and aunt. Bring my regards to them, and wish them and you a Happy New Year!"

Gu Qiuyi also replied, "Thank you, Brother Ye Chen, and I wish you a Happy New Year too!"

Afterwards, Ye Chen put away his phone and focused on accompanying his wife Xiao Churan to continue watching the Spring Festival Gala.

When it was almost twelve o'clock, Xiao Changkun said with some emotion, "Aiya, although banning fireworks and firecrackers is environmentally friendly, the New Year really lacks a bit of the New Year's atmosphere. It's a pity, what a pity..."

"That's right." Xiao Churan on the side couldn't help but sigh, "When I was young, I especially liked the smell of fireworks after firecrackers exploded. Now there are very few opportunities to see them."

Ye Chen said, "Although you aren't allowed to set off firecrackers in the city, you can in the suburbs. Do you want to go to the suburbs to set off some firecrackers to celebrate?"

Xiao Churan's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again. She shook her head and said, "Forget it, everyone is at home for the Spring Festival at this hour, where would we find firecrackers..."

Ye Chen thought for a while and sent a message to Chen Zekai, asking him, "Old Chen, does your Bai Jinhangong have any fireworks and firecrackers in stock?"

Chen Zekai replied immediately, "Yes, Young Master, do you need them?"

"Yes." Ye Chen said, "My wife wants to go to the suburbs to set off firecrackers."

Chen Zekai hurriedly said, "Then I'll have them sent to you."

"No need." Ye Chen said, "You enjoy your holiday, don't delay reuniting with your family because of me."

After saying this, Ye Chen asked him, "Bai Jinhangong has people on duty tonight, right?"

"Yes, Young Master." Chen Zekai said, "Bai Jinhangong is open 24 hours a day all year round, and there are always people on duty."

Ye Chen then said, "Good, then you tell the people on duty, I'll drive over to pick them up."

Chen Zekai was very moved by Ye Chen's approach and hurriedly said, "Young Master, why don't I have the people on duty send them to you? Anyway, they are getting triple pay for being on duty."

Ye Chen replied to him, "Forget it, it's New Year's, I don't want to trouble others, it's not appropriate. I'll drive over myself, there definitely won't be a traffic jam at this time, I can be there in ten minutes."

Chen Zekai was helpless and had to say, "Alright then, Young Master, I'll tell the people below, you can come pick them up anytime."

After confirming with Chen Zekai, Ye Chen said to Xiao Churan, "Wife, I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back soon."

Xiao Churan hurriedly grabbed his hand and said seriously, "Husband, don't go out and trouble yourself, just stay at home and watch TV for a while, it doesn't matter whether we set off fireworks and firecrackers or not."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said lovingly, "It's okay, you wait at home, husband will be back soon."

After saying this, he stood up, took Xiao Churan's car keys, and stepped out of the house.

Xiao Churan wanted to stop him, but seeing him walk very fast and having already left the door in the blink of an eye, she had to sigh helplessly and instructed him, "Drive slowly, don't be in a hurry!"

Ye Chen's voice came from outside the door, "Okay wife, I know!"

Seeing Ye Chen leave, Ma Lan couldn't help but sigh, "Churan, Mom is speaking from the heart, Ye Chen is really good to you..."

As she said this, Ma Lan sighed again, "In the past, Mom always felt Ye Chen was useless and wasn't worthy of you, and that you should have married a young master from a rich family to be considered well-married... But Mom only understands now that the most important thing in marriage is actually the emotional foundation. Money or not isn't that important; what's important is that he treats you like a treasure, then you can live happily..." ===== CHAPTER 1030 =====
