Huayu96: My Thirty Years of a Prodigal Son

Chapter 28 "Looking Through the Window" and "If Only Then!"

With Zeng Li and Yuan Quan moving in.

Of course, it was mainly Zeng Li's move-in that greatly improved Qin Sheng's quality of life.

Zeng Li's cooking skills are truly impressive.

I've made different dishes for several days in a row.

And everything tastes delicious.

The key is to have enough patience.

Whatever dish Qin Sheng orders, even if Zeng Li doesn't know how to cook it, she's willing to try her best to make it for him.

This is just a meal.

Zeng Li did not neglect any of the housework.

Not to mention mopping and sweeping, Zeng Li has even taken care of Qin Sheng's clothes.

These past few days, Qin Shengzhen has suddenly felt a warm and relaxed sense of married life.

Of course, there's also a light bulb in this little house.

That's Yuan Quan.

Qin Sheng didn't think that the idea of ​​the three of them living a good life together was more important than anything else.

The main reason is that Yuan Quan is not only very talented as an actress, but also very elegant as a woman.

But it just doesn't fit into my aesthetic.

What is my aesthetic sense? Is it Zeng Li, Gao Yuanyuan, or Liu Yifei? It's the kind of person who is either dignified and elegant or stunningly beautiful.

But Yuan Quan is clearly not one of them.

Of course, if you're talking about playing a friendly match, that's no problem.

After all, she is a very distinctive and outstanding woman.

But if you're talking about putting in the effort to pursue it, sorry, there are too many targets, and you're not in the running for now.

That's a bit too far ahead.

In the past few days, Zeng Li has basically opened her arms to Qin Sheng.

Even Yuan Quan couldn't stand Zeng Li's obvious affection and said, "Can't you be a little more reserved?"

But Zeng Li just chuckled and continued to foolishly and clingily around Qin Sheng every day.

Qin Sheng actually really wanted to take a bite.

After all, I've been abstaining from sex for several months, and I am indeed hungry.

And here I am, facing such a delicious young girl.

But Qin Sheng held back.

Having spent so many years in the entertainment industry in his previous life, and now reborn, he's determined to return to his old ways and become a seasoned scumbag again.

That's an example from when they were on the Water Margin set.

But if you're a scumbag in your second life, your mindset will definitely be different.

At least I'm sure I won't be like I was in my previous life, thinking that getting to base is everything. Like Pigsy eating ginseng fruit, I've lost all taste.

A young girl's feelings, especially the feelings of an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl experiencing her first love, are absolutely priceless.

Even if I'm starving right now, I'm not willing to ruin this beautiful girlish sentiment.

You have to savor every bite before you can finally start eating.

Qin Sheng's plan was to confess his feelings on the day he helped Zeng Li sign the contract, thus officially beginning their poetic early romance.

Wait until you've fully enjoyed yourself and given your partner a perfect start to the relationship before you start eating.

So these past few days, he's been working hard to write songs.

A song written for Zeng Li.

As for my own, there's no rush.

Finally, on the fourth day of living together, all the songs were selected and written.

The moment he finished writing it, Qin Sheng called Liu Huan.

On the phone, Liu Huan was somewhat surprised to hear that Qin Sheng had already finished writing all of Zeng Li's songs in just a few days.

But I still readily invited him to Baihua Hutong.

After lunch, the three of them went to Liu Huan's recording studio again.

Pushing open the door, I saw familiar faces all there.

Liu Huan sat in front of the mixing console, drinking tea.

Mao Amin is reading a magazine.

Na Ying didn't eat any oranges today; instead, she was holding a handful of sunflower seeds and cracking them open with great enthusiasm.

Seeing Qin Sheng enter, Liu Huan put down his teacup.

"Here you are, haha. To be honest, your progress is much faster than I expected."

Don't lower quality standards in pursuit of speed!

Qin Sheng stepped forward and handed over the two copies of the lyrics and music with a smile.

"How could that be, Brother Huan? If it's not up to standard, I wouldn't even present it to anyone myself, let alone tell you."

Liu Huan nodded, took the lyrics and music, and began to read them.

He was looking at the first album, the song titled "Looking Out the Window".

Mao Amin wasn't idle either; she pulled out the second album of lyrics and music and started reading it as well.

The song on the second album is called "If Back Then".

Na Ying was a little embarrassed because she didn't get to see the lyrics and music.

She gave a soft snort, pretending that I didn't care to look, and turned her head away.

Zeng Li, still holding Yuan Quan's hand, stood obediently to the side without saying much.

Qin Sheng has already had her practice these two songs at home.

She thought it sounded quite nice, and it even had a Peking Opera style, which suited her well.

I just don't know if the experts recognize these two songs.

Soon, Liu Huan finished reading "Exploring the Window".

After roughly simulating the singing style in his mind, Liu Huan slapped his thigh in amazement.

"A genius is indeed a genius!"

I never imagined I could write songs like this in my entire life!

Ah Sheng, you're truly a songwriting genius!

At this time, Mao Amin also finished reading "If Back Then".

Mao Amin also had a satisfied smile on her face.

"Ah Sheng, it's very well written, excellent. The lyrics are good, and the music is even better."

I think your songwriting skills are completely ahead of the mainland music scene by an entire era.

It's such a waste of your talent to develop your career in mainland China.

You should go to Hong Kong, go to Taiwan; those are the forefront of the Chinese music scene.

Hearing the praise from the two bigwigs, Qin Sheng still gave his signature shy smile.

"Oh, it was just something I wrote casually, following my feelings. I don't deserve such high praise from you two."

Seeing that Liu Huan and Mao Amin were so enthusiastic about these two songs, Na Ying could no longer contain her curiosity.

Without making a sound, Na Ying walked over to Liu Huan and Mao Amin.

While the two were chatting with Qin Sheng, they secretly snatched the lyrics and music from their hands.

After reading it, Na Ying had only one thought in her mind.

What a genius monster!

Why wait for the right opportunity to make this kid submit?

Tonight!

I must apologize to this kid tonight!

Then I asked him to write a song for me!

I can't wait even a day longer!

As Zeng Li watched the three big shots who seemed quite satisfied with the song Qin Sheng had written for her, her heart began to pound faster.

Could it be that...?

Zeng Li was so nervous that she felt dizzy.

"Zeng Li, Zeng Li!"

It wasn't until Qin Sheng walked up to Zeng Li and patted her on the shoulder that Zeng Li realized that Qin Sheng had called her several times already.

"Wha...what's wrong?"

Zeng Li asked, somewhat stammering.

Qin Sheng gave Zeng Li a gentle, encouraging smile, and then said, "Sing these two songs for the three teachers."

"Okay, sure."

Zeng Li cleared her throat, prepared herself, and began to sing a cappella.

The first song is titled "Looking Out the Window".

While Zeng Li's singing skills were slightly lacking in the verses, his confidence immediately emerged once the chorus began.

She sang "Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Land"

Every step and every sentence is filled with longing.

The audience members were honored with their names on the honor roll.

I didn't recognize any old acquaintances on stage.

He was talking about the wedding night.

Everyone congratulates the beautiful woman on marrying the talented man.

"Not a single word was heard, not a sigh escaped; the play tells of a lovelorn woman..."

The melodious opera singing echoed in the recording studio.

Liu Huan sat in the chair, seemingly listening to a play, his eyes half-closed, slapping his thigh leisurely in time with Zeng Li's singing.

Soon, the first song, "Looking Out the Window," was finished.

At Qin Sheng's nod, Zeng Li began singing the second song, "If Back Then".

This piece doesn't have as strong a traditional opera flavor.

It has a more trendy feel to it.

But the melody of the chorus is still very catchy.

"The torrential red rain stirred up memories, how could they be hidden?"

Your beautiful eyes are as they were back then, lingering in my heart.

The final moment by the ferry crossing marked the end of an era.

If our meeting had remained as it was at first, why would we be saddened by parting...?

As Zeng Li finished singing with lingering charm, Liu Huan suddenly opened his eyes.
