Who taught you to be a celebrity like this?

Li Ye learned guitar and piano when he was a child. After his parents passed away, he became withdrawn and isolated. When he was feeling down, he would naturally entertain himself by playing instruments and singing.

But no real creation was made.

Liu Chun had never heard Li Ye sing or play an instrument before.

Li Ye sighed inwardly; Chun-ge really put on a show.

He wasn't stupid; he could naturally see that Liu Chun had been looking for an opportunity to show off.

They just don't care.

"Okay, you sing a song." Li Ye didn't mind letting Liu Chun continue to perform.

After all, when Li Ye was in despair and wallowing in self-pity, Liu Chun had given him a lot of care, so his behavior today wasn't too excessive.

"This song is called 'Irreplaceable,' and I'm so glad that you're my first listener." Liu Chun was overjoyed. He would sing it regardless of whether Li Ye wanted to hear it or not.

Liu Chun strummed his guitar and began to sing with deep emotion.

Li Ye listened quietly.

This is a classic sad love song, telling a story of unrequited love.

Fortunately, Liu Chun didn't target Li Ye to sing this song.

After he finished singing, Liu Chun immediately asked impatiently, "How was it?"

"Not bad, it sounds nice."

"Really?"

"Seriously, the chorus is quite memorable."

Liu Chun's song reminded Li Ye of some popular songs on short videos.

The lyrics are quite straightforward, the melody is simple and repetitive, and the verses are not very memorable. If you're lucky, it might become a minor hit online because of the chorus.

If Li Ye were to give his honest opinion, it would be something worth listening to, but he wouldn't add it to his playlist.

However, this is not the truth-or-dare segment.

Seeing Liu Chun's joyful face and his anticipation for the future, Li Ye smiled as well. That's good.

After Liu Chun finished his performance, his goal was achieved. He didn't insist that Li Ye sing a song he had recently written, and was just about to put the guitar back where it was.

But at that moment, Wang Fu's voice came from off-camera.

"Li Ye, do you write songs sometimes? Could you sing one?"

"Oh? No, thank you." Li Ye waved his hand in refusal.

"Sing a song."

Li Ye was still unwilling; how could he possibly sing his previous "creations" to them?

It's not that I'm afraid of losing face, I simply don't want to tell outsiders.

As for "The Ordinary Road"... let's forget about it; he doesn't want to steal Liu Chun's thunder.

"I'll give you extra money."

Li Ye didn't understand why Wang Fu insisted on making him sing.

"Director Wang, this isn't about money."

"Five thousand, or ten thousand if things are still good."

Li Ye's salary was only 20,000 yuan, but changing his mind over 10,000 yuan still seemed a bit cheap.

"Then I'll sing a chorus."

Li Ye took the guitar from Liu Chun.

It's not about the money. "The Ordinary Road" will be released sooner or later, so there's no harm in singing it.

"Let's see how long you can keep up this act..." Wang Fu stood with his arms crossed, watching calmly.

Since Li Ye is so cunning, if he really wrote a good song, he wouldn't want to fall behind after Liu Chun sang it.

The current situation is clearly not like that.

In Wang Fu's eyes, Li Ye was already a young man with a deep and shrewd mind.

Because of this impression, he even suspected that Li Ye's earlier mention of his parents was intentional.

In addition, the production team had communicated with Ding Yan beforehand, but Ding Yan only mentioned that she should not guide Li Ye to receive negative comments, without mentioning important things such as Li Ye's family situation in advance.

When Wang Fu inadvertently mentioned it, Ding Yan approached him again, saying that family matters should not be disclosed or guided.

Therefore, Wang Fu felt that his suspicions were not unfounded.

As for why Li Ye did this?

Wang Fu originally thought that since the child was so pitiful, he should take extra care of him in the editing and try to show Li Ye's positive qualities.

If you like to play clever tricks, then you have to bear the consequences!

Liu Chun hesitated, unsure whether Li Ye had written any songs, but he was certain they weren't as good as his.

The company found this song for him; both the lyrics and music are quite professional.

Letting Li Ye continue singing at this point would only embarrass him, wouldn't it?

However, Liu Chun ultimately kept his mouth shut and said nothing.

Li Ye didn't think too much about it; all he was determined to do was get that ten thousand yuan.

I adjusted my posture, placed my fingers on the strings, closed my eyes, composed myself, and began to pluck the strings.

Li Ye's guitar skills aren't exactly amazing, but they're pretty good, even better than Liu Chun's. After all, they've been playing guitar since they were kids, and "The Ordinary Road" is actually quite easy to play.

He didn't start directly from the chorus, but played it from the beginning.

After listening for a while, Wang Fu felt that something was wrong.

This melody sounds pretty good, doesn't it?

Liu Chun was even more surprised; how could Li Ye have actually written a song?

Li Ye was unaware of what others thought. He was quite focused on his work. He was a little uncomfortable at first, but he quickly got into the zone and started humming along when the verse came on.

His voice is clean and has a unique charm.

To say that it would be so captivating would be an exaggeration, but it is definitely pleasant and enjoyable to listen to.

Compared to Liu Chun's somewhat deliberate singing style, Li Ye's relaxed humming gave the production crew a very comfortable listening experience, making them want to continue listening.

When the chorus came, Li Ye finally stopped humming and started singing lyrics.

I have crossed mountains and seas

Also through crowds of people

Everything I once possessed

In the blink of an eye, they all vanished like smoke.

I was once lost, disappointed, and directionless.

Until you realize that ordinariness is the only answer.

At Li Ye's home, all the listeners involuntarily held their breath and listened attentively.

Most of them are not professionals, but whether a song is good or not is very simple and direct.

But just as they were engrossed in listening, Li Ye stopped singing.

"Is that all?"

"Oh, just one chorus?"

The two girls from the program team spoke one after the other.

Even Wang Fu looked at Li Ye expectantly; he knew what was more important.

A catchy, unreleased new song is a great benefit to the show.

That's a different price... Li Ye wasn't deliberately trying to pique people's interest; he was just unsure if singing the entire "Ordinary Road" on the show would pose any copyright risks.

Just to be on the safe side, he shook his head and said, "It's not finished yet, only the chorus is written."

Wang Fu secretly regretted it.

The two female members of the production team were even more disappointed; their eyes shone so brightly when they looked at Li Ye that they almost glowed.

They already wanted to comfort Li Ye because of his family situation, but now they discovered that he not only sings well but also writes songs. He's a real treasure!

However, in a corner where no one was paying attention, Liu Chun was on the verge of shattering.

On what grounds?

Why did he have to curry favor with so many people and beg and plead to get a song from the company?

Can Li Ye just casually produce a song of such high quality?

wrong!

How could Li Ye write lyrics like this?

It must have been written by someone else.

But on what grounds?

Liu Chun knew that he should praise Li Ye highly at this time and encourage him to make the unfinished song as perfect as possible.

But he couldn't.

Liu Chun struggled to maintain his composure, forcing a dry smile as he asked, "Xiao Ye, how did you write these lyrics?"

"I wrote it down as soon as I heard it," Li Ye said, pointing to his head.

Others automatically interpret it as—when inspiration strikes, nothing can stop it.

"What I mean is..."

Liu Chun gritted his teeth, looking worried, "Under what circumstances did you write these lyrics?"

Li Ye shook his head and did not continue to explain.

"Actually, I'm genuinely happy for you, not because you can write such simple yet meaningful lyrics, but because of your transformation."

Liu Chun forced a smile, "That's more like it. You're in much better shape than before. I hope you can keep it up."

"I will," Li Ye nodded.

Liu Chun had originally planned to stay until evening before going back, but now he felt uneasy. He got up to say goodbye, "I have something to do, so I'll go first. Take good care of yourself."

Li Ye escorted Liu Chun to the door, expressing his heartfelt gratitude, "Thank you, Brother Chun."

After Liu Chun left, Wang Fu suddenly stopped the recording, indicating that he had something to discuss with Li Ye.

He first asked Li Ye about the song title and confirmed the lyrics that Li Ye would sing, then pondered for a while.

Is Liu Chun really your friend?
