How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 116 Another Ex Comes (Subscribe)

Yang Xue held her phone upside down on her thigh while the makeup artist was putting on her makeup. She squinted her eyes slightly, thinking about what Director Yu said about asking Jiang Yu to try to write the theme song for "Three Lives, Three Worlds".

She opened her phone and, following her memory, entered the number and searched for Jiang Yu's WeChat account. The profile picture remained the same as before. She herself was a nostalgic person, and even after all these years, she hadn't changed her profile picture.

Seeing Jiang Yu’s familiar profile picture, Yang Xue was also a little dazed.

It had been so long since she'd contacted Jiang Yu since they'd broken up. She'd even deleted Jiang Yu's contact information in a fit of rage. But the memory was hard to erase.

Yang Xue hesitated for a long time after looking at Jiang Yu's WeChat message, and pursed her red lips. She was asking him to write the theme song, so what was there to hesitate about?

This scumbag has already written a new song for Su Muwan. Why don't you try asking him to write a theme song for you?

No, it wasn’t me who asked for it. I was just helping Director Yu convey his ideas.

For some reason, Yang Xue couldn't help but think of the new song "Rewind" that Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan.

The makeup artist looked at his boss's changing expression and didn't dare to say anything. After finishing the makeup, he quietly stepped aside.

"Sister Xue, your makeup is done. Please sit down for a while. It will probably be a while before you go on stage."

Yang Xue just said "hmm" and nodded. She looked at Jiang Yu's WeChat on her phone, hesitated for a while, and finally clicked to add a friend.

At this moment, Yang Xue felt her heartbeat seemed to quicken. She kept staring at WeChat, refreshing the messages and looking at the friend verifications she had sent out.

Jiang Yu looked at the friend request that suddenly popped up, the familiar avatar in his memory, and the verification message "I am Yang Xue".

Seeing this friend request, Jiang Yu was also stunned, and his eyes gradually became a little confused.

Yang Xue suddenly added me, what's going on?
This was his ex, the movie queen. From his memory, Jiang Yu knew that after they broke up, the movie queen had deleted all of his contact information in a fit of rage, even unfollowing her on Weibo.

what is it today?
Why would someone suddenly add me?

Jiang Yu was a little confused, hesitated for a moment, and clicked to agree.

Looking at Yang Xue's avatar, Jiang Yu thought about it and decided to send a message to say hello.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Yang Xue also saw that her friend request was approved. As soon as she clicked into Jiang Yu’s chat interface, she saw the message “Long time no see” from Jiang Yu.

For a moment, Yang Xue was a little dazed.

Yeah, long time no see.

It has been almost a year since the breakup, and the two have never contacted or seen each other again.

Yang Xue pursed her red lips, tapped the screen of her phone with her fingers, and replied.

"long time no see."

Everything seemed so natural, as if two good friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time were chatting.

When Yang Xue first added Jiang Yu back, she felt a bit nervous and mixed. But now, everything had returned to normal, as if they had let go of all the past. Now, all that was left was a good friend who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

As to whether it is true or not, only they know it in their hearts.

Yang Xue didn't hesitate and directly explained her purpose to Jiang Yu.

"Do you have time recently? I want you to help me write a theme song for my new drama?"

But after reading this sentence, Yang Xue felt a little uneasy. It wasn't that she was the one looking for him, right?

After deleting this sentence, Yang Xue edited a new message.

"Are you free recently? The director of my new drama wants me to ask you to help write a theme song."

Jiang Yu looked at the message from Yang Xue and understood. It turned out that she really had something to talk to him about. No wonder Yang Xue suddenly added him after not contacting him for so long.

He joked, "I see. I thought our movie queen wanted to talk to me about something."

Yang Xue's eyes flickered slightly. "Because Director Yu has found many teachers to write theme songs for him, but none of them are satisfactory. He saw that your new song is of good quality, so he wanted to ask you to try it out."

"Did the director find it?"

"if not?"

"I thought you thought of me first."

Yang Xue's hand holding the phone tightened slightly, and some emotions seemed to spread in her heart. But soon, looking at Jiang Yu's message, she snorted in her heart.

This guy has deceived countless girls with his sweet words.

Scumbag!

Yang Xue didn't respond to Jiang Yu's question, but just asked him: "Are you busy recently? If you don't have time, forget it."

"We have time. Director Yu wants the theme song, right?"

Yang Xue didn't know what Jiang Yu meant by asking this again, but she still replied, "Yes, Director Yu asked me to ask this for him. Is there any problem with this?"

She thought to herself that it was Director Yu who asked her about this matter, so there was nothing wrong with it and she didn't lie.

"No problem, but since Director Yu wants it, we still have to negotiate the money for writing the song."

Just because of this?
"Isn't that what Director Yu wants?"

Yang Xue looked at her own subconscious question and stared at the screen, wanting to see how Jiang Yu would respond.

"Not Director Yu, if it were you..." Jiang Yu didn't finish his words, but Yang Xue's curiosity was aroused. What would he do if she asked?
Jiang Yu added the second half of the sentence.

"If it were you, you'd still need money. After all, you're really short of money lately (poor guy)."

Yang Xue curled her lips and asked herself in her heart, what was she expecting just now?
She typed a reply to Jiang Yu: "Don't worry, this is the theme song for the new drama. If you write it well, they will pay you well."

"Okay, send me a script outline so I can write based on it."

Seeing this, Yang Xue immediately sent the script outline to Jiang Yu.

"Take a look, send it to me when you're done. I have something else to do, so I'll log off now."

Assistant Yuanyuan came to ask Yang Xue to get ready to go on stage.

Jiang Yu responded with an "ok" gesture.

Looking at the script outline sent by Yang Xue, Jiang Yu also opened it and took a look.

The title of the drama is "Three Lives, Three Worlds". After taking a quick look at it, Jiang Yu was also amused.

This script is quite similar to a fantasy drama from the previous life. After reading the outline of the script, Jiang Yu already had an idea in his mind.

"Then let's go with this song."

After coming up with the idea, Jiang Yu started writing the song and then sent it directly to Yang Xue for her to read.

Although this is the ex-boyfriend, and it is also a TV series starring our movie queen, we still have to earn the money we deserve. The movie queen’s rich sister is not short of money, but he is very short of money now.

On Yang Xue's side, after sending the script outline to Jiang Yu, the scene of chatting with Jiang Yu kept appearing in Yang Xue's mind.

It seems like after not seeing him for so long, this guy seems to have become more active in chatting.

money?
Is he short of money now?
Yang Xue thought about it carefully, and thinking about Jiang Yu's previous situation, she probably knew why Jiang Yu was so short of money now.

By the time Yang Xue finished the event, it was already noon. As soon as she returned to the hotel to rest, she opened WeChat.

Jiang Yu's news has arrived.

"The theme song is finished and has been sent to your email. Take a look."

So fast?
Jiang Yu wrote the theme song in just one morning?
Yang Xue was a little surprised at Jiang Yu's current creative speed.

She immediately opened her email and looked at the theme song sent by Jiang Yu. The more she looked at it, the brighter Yang Xue's eyes became.

Yang Xue feels that the theme song written by Jiang Yu is the song she has written so far that best fits the theme of the TV series.

She was a little excited and replied to Jiang Yu immediately.

"I saw it, the song is pretty good. I'll send it to the director first and get back to you later."

Although she is the heroine and one of the investors, the finalization of the theme song still needs to be reviewed by the director team.

Yang Xue immediately sent the song written by Jiang Yu to Director Yu.

"Director Yu, this is the theme song written by Jiang Yu. I think it's great. It's the song I'm most satisfied with so far. Take a look at it first."

Director Yu was having lunch. When he saw Yang Xue's message, he was stunned and a little surprised.

Wow, is this so fast?
After opening the file sent by Yang Xue, he wanted to see what the theme song written by Jiang Yu was like and why it received such high praise from Yang Xue.

As he watched, Director Yu became excited.

"Great! It's really great!"

Director Yu hadn't expected Jiang Yu to write such a good theme song in such a short time. The theme was perfect for their film and TV series, and he thought the lyrics were also good.

Originally, Director Yu just wanted to try with Jiang Yu, as a last resort. If it really didn't work, they could only find a better song from the previous ones to make do with.

But now, Director Yu feels that the theme song written by Jiang Yu is better than the previous ones they asked teachers in the industry to write.

It’s hard to imagine that Jiang Yu is so talented now.

"This guy is really just like what people say online. He experienced the ups and downs of life and suddenly had an epiphany!"

Director Yu is a little curious about Jiang Yu now. This guy's current talent really amazes him.

"Xiao Yang, this song is really good. I'll draft a contract right away. Why don't you ask him about the price first?"

Yang Xue looked at Director Yu's reply and had guessed it long ago. When she saw the song Jiang Yu wrote, Yang Xue knew that Director Yu would definitely be satisfied with it.

She didn't ask Jiang Yu the price, she just replied.

"The price is not low. He has released many hit songs now. Director Yu, you know that songwriters like him don't ask for low prices..."

Director Yu also understood that even though Jiang Yu now said that he had few resources after his downfall, his recent songs had all been hits, including "Rewind" which he wrote for the pop diva Su Muwan. This price must be high.

"How about this, you ask him to give a number, as long as it's not excessive."

Such a good theme song must not be missed.

Even if it is the highest price in the market, Director Yu will get it.

Anyway, it’s about money. There’s no shortage of money for a drama with such a big investment.
