A person in Wuha: The whole internet is urging me to get back together with my ex!

Zhou Jielun, Lin Junjie, Wang Leehom, and Tao Zhe all stared at Chen Ye.

Four pairs of eyes were practically green with envy.

"Tell me quickly! What's your name?" Lin Junjie urged impatiently, his coffee cup trembling slightly.

Jay Chou raised an eyebrow.

"Yezi, don't you dare have a big one and then drag a small one down with you. If this isn't enough to bleed you away, I'm going to pin you down on this sofa and beat you up today."

Chen Ye grinned and crossed his hands behind his head.

"King of Love Songs".

Lin Junjie spilled a few drops of coffee on his trouser leg, but he was completely unaware.

A full ten seconds passed.

Holy crap!

Tao Zhe suddenly jumped up from the sofa.

"The King of Love Songs?!"

"Yezi, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about us?" Wang Leehom's eyes widened as he pointed to his nose. "Our album includes heartbreaking love songs like 'Cultivating Love,' 'The Promised Happiness,' and 'Loving the Wrong Person'!"

Lin Junjie nodded vigorously and then added insult to injury.

"And then there are your life-or-death songs, 'Suspended' and 'Lover,' plus the five of us singing 'Tearful Land' and 'Preservation.'"

"Which of these is a normal love song?"

"This is clearly a massive emo slaughter scene!"

Zhou Jielun rubbed his numb scalp.

mad.

If those four words were typed out, those self-proclaimed princes and queens of love songs in the Chinese entertainment industry would probably have to tear off their titles overnight.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Ye leaned back on the sofa and spread his hands out confidently.

"Does a sad love song not count as a love song? I'm asking you, are these twelve masterpieces combined enough to be considered the best?"

The group exchanged glances.

enough.

That's fucking enough.

Any one of these twelve songs could easily dominate the current Chinese music scene.

When they come together, it's the ultimate trump card.

Chen Ye's smile deepened as he looked at their conflicted expressions.

"And think about it, our album is scheduled for release at midnight."

"At that time, all the single people on the internet who are about to go to sleep, the army of heartbroken people, will click on an album called 'King of Love Songs'..."

"They thought they could listen to some sweet love songs to help them fall asleep..."

Chen Ye paused, revealing a set of white teeth.

"The result was either 'Suspended' or 'Retained'."

The four people who were just making a ruckus suddenly fell silent.

The way they looked at Chen Ye completely changed.

Sixth brother.

This kid is definitely a pure and simple old man!

They packaged an album full of extremely emo and sad love songs as "King of Love Songs".

They even deliberately chose to send it out at midnight, when the audience's defenses were at their weakest.

This is not releasing an album.

This is a cyber terrorist attack!

This isn't naming a child; it's practically digging up an old grave for the entire internet audience.

"That's so unethical."

Wang Leehom silently picked up his coffee and took a sip to calm his nerves, but he couldn't hide the upturned corners of his mouth.

"But I like it so much."

Lin Junjie rubbed his hands together excitedly.

"I can already picture the Weibo programmers crying and screaming in the server room that night."

"Then it's settled!" Jay Chou was the first to react, slapping his thigh. "That's the name! King of Love Songs!"

"We're going to use magic to defeat magic," Tao Zhe said, giving a thumbs up.

The five people looked at each other and smiled.

Their smiles revealed an extremely unethical tacit understanding.

After laughing and joking for a while, Zhou Jielun glanced at the Rolex on his wrist.

"Alright, it's almost time, I have to catch my flight."

Jay Chou stood up.

Lin Junjie and Wang Leehom also stood up.

"My team has been urging me several times," Lin Junjie said, picking up his coat from the back of his chair. "The arrangement for the new album is still waiting for me to go back and review it."

Wang Lihong straightened his collar.

"I need to go back and prepare for the concert."

Chen Ye stood up and gave each of the three figures who represent half of the Chinese music scene a hearty hug.

"Thanks for your hard work, brothers." Chen Ye patted Jay Chou on the back. "Once this album is released, we'll probably be hunted down by the entire internet. Remember to cover for each other then."

Zhou Jielun laughed and punched Chen Ye.

"Get lost, that was your terrible idea. We're just accomplices at worst."

The three men put on sunglasses and baseball caps and walked out of the photography studio under the escort of their assistants and bodyguards.

Chen Ye watched their nanny van drive away, then turned his head.

On the sofa on the other side.

Tao Zhe was sitting with his legs crossed, frantically typing on his phone, his shoulders twitching with laughter.

Chen Ye walked over and kicked Tao Zhe's leather shoes.

"Brother Zhe, aren't you leaving?"

Tao Zhe looked up from his phone screen, his face blank.

"Go? Where to?"

"Going home? Jelun and the others are catching their flight." Chen Ye looked at him. "You're finally free?"

Tao Zhe shook his head like a rattle-drum, clutching the sofa cushions tightly with both hands.

"I'm not leaving! I'm so free!"

He looked at Chen Ye with a righteous expression.

"Besides, I need to hang out with my half-brother, Chao Ge! You're not trying to kick me out, are you?"

Chen Ye's lips twitched.

God is a half-brother.

You two have only known each other for two or three days, okay?

Is this the feeling of Bo Ya and Zi Qi?

"I'm not trying to kick you out." Chen Ye sighed helplessly. "I'm just worried that you'll neglect your important work because of recording this stupid show. Don't tell me you don't even have any gigs right now."

Tao Zhe's eyes darted away for a moment, then he stubbornly held on.

"No! Absolutely not! If I were busy, I would have left with Lao Zhou and the others long ago!"

What Chen Ye didn't know was that this old guy, in order to stay in the Wuha crew and hang out with Deng Chao, had his agent turn down two S-level music variety show mentor offers.

Chen Ye stared at him for two seconds, then decided to let him do as he pleased.

With this big shot around, the ratings for "Five Ha" will only skyrocket, and Wang Zhengyu will probably be laughing in his sleep.

"Alright then." Chen Ye turned and walked out. "Let's go back to the guesthouse and find them."

Earlier, when Deng Chao, Chen He and the others had just finished listening to the recording of "Qi Mei Di" and "Bi Bao", Wang Zhengyu called in a hurry, saying that the live broadcast was about to start, and he practically dragged them back first.

They didn't even catch the biggest gossip about taking a group photo together.

The black van sped along and came to a smooth stop in front of the guesthouse.

As soon as Chen Ye and Tao Zhe pushed open the door, they heard a series of ghostly wails coming from the lobby on the first floor.

"You dead pig Chen! How dare you steal my chicken leg!" Deng Chao's stern voice echoed across the rooftop.

"Can you call it stealing when it's a scholar's business? It's borrowing!"

Chen He, his mouth stuffed full, frantically ran around the enormous long dining table.

These two people, whose combined age is nearly one hundred, are putting on a show of an eagle catching a chick.

Lu Han sat on the sofa next to her, holding a glass of water in her hand, her gaze somewhat unfocused.

He was still trying to heal the internal wounds from being bombarded with Chen Ye's tearful love songs.

Chen Ye glanced at the corner of the hall.

Several dark camera lenses were flashing red light.

The live stream has started.

Chen Ye and Tao Zhe entered the hall one after the other.

Deng Chao, who was chasing Chen He in circles, suddenly braked, his slippers scraping against the wooden floor with a screeching sound.

"Holy crap!" Deng Chao's eyes widened, then he burst into a delighted scream, "Whoa! Brother Zhe!"

Deng Chao didn't even care about the grudge over the chicken leg; he opened his arms and pounced on Tao Zhe.

"Zhe-ge, you didn't leave! I thought you retreated with Jielun and the others!"

Deng Chao hugged Tao Zhe tightly, their warmth comparable to that of long-lost brothers reuniting.

Tao Zhe also put his arm around Deng Chao's shoulder, grinning from ear to ear.

"Of course I can't leave!" Tao Zhe's first words were brimming with emotional intelligence. "You're still here, how could I bear to leave!"

Upon hearing this, Deng Chao felt as sweet as if he had drunk honey, and his smile was so wide that his gums were sticking out.

This is the godfather of R&B in the Chinese music scene.

Deng Chao stayed because of him.

This is incredible!

"You're a true brother!" Deng Chao patted Tao Zhe on the back, deeply moved.

Chen Ye rolled his eyes as he watched from the side.

Those two old devils are simply unbearable to look at.

He decisively abandoned the two old fogies who were flattering each other and headed straight for the sofa area.

Song Yuqi was sitting cross-legged on a single sofa, scrolling through her phone.

When she saw Chen Ye walking over, her eyes lit up, and she immediately threw away her phone and patted the spot next to her.

Chen Ye walked over and naturally sat down next to her.

The single sofa was already narrow, and with the two of them squeezed together, they were almost pressed tightly together.

Song Yuqi was completely unconcerned about the cameras shooting her face up in the corner.

She snuggled closer to Chen Ye.

"Have you finished filming with Jielun and the others?" Song Yuqi looked up, her big eyes sparkling as she stared at Chen Ye.

She chattered like a little sparrow.

"How about it? Aren't you handsome? Aren't the five of you in suits absolutely stunning? Do you have any photos to show me?"

Seeing her eager expression, Chen Ye reached out and pinched her cheek.

"Of course he's handsome, don't you even know who your husband is?" Chen Ye chuckled, his tone arrogant. "As for the photos, they haven't been sent yet; the photography team is doing post-production color grading."

Actually, there's no need to adjust it at all.

With those five people, even the raw footage would be insane.

"What a pity." Song Yuqi pouted, leaning on Chen Ye's shoulder with some disappointment. "I was hoping to post it on my WeChat Moments to show off."

Chen Ye then put his arm around her waist.

"What's the rush? I'll send you the first one when the final print is ready."

Song Yuqi hummed contentedly twice and buried her head in Chen Ye's shoulder, nuzzling against him.

Just then.

"Ahem!"

A deliberately dry cough interrupted the lively atmosphere in the hall.

Everyone turned to look.

Wang Zhengyu, with his hands behind his back and that signature lewd smile on his face, slowly strolled down the stairs.

The laughter and chatter in the hall stopped instantly.

Deng Chao and Chen He silently took half a step back, and Tao Zhe also quickly found a seat and sat down.

Lu Han put down the goji berry water in her hand.

"Everyone, please be quiet." Wang Zhengyu clapped his hands and glanced at everyone.

"Our filming in Y-Wu is almost over," Wang Zhengyu announced slowly. "Everyone, pack up, we'll be leaving Y-Wu soon."

The hall was silent for a second.

"Where are we going?" Deng Chao and Chen He asked in unison.

This lousy production team never follows the rules, and their schedule is kept completely secret.

Wang Zhengyu pushed up his glasses, his smile widening.

"Go to Jingd Town in Jiangxi Province."

The voice just fell.

"oh!!!"

Deng Chao jumped up from the sofa, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Jingd Town?! Jiangxi Province?!" Deng Chao rubbed his hands excitedly. "I'm from Jiangxi Province! Old Wang, you've done something really worthwhile. It's like sending me back to my hometown!"

Deng Chao has always been proud of his hometown, and he always mentions his fellow Jiangxi natives no matter what program he appears on.

He turned around and grabbed Tao Zhe's arm.

"Brother Zhe! Did you hear me?! Come to my hometown!"

Deng Chao patted his chest confidently, as if he were making a huge promise.

"When you go to Jiangxi Province, besides Jingd Town, you'll definitely have to go to my hometown, Nchang! You'll follow me there, and I'll treat you to authentic Nchang mixed rice noodles and clay pot soup! It'll be an absolute blast!"

Tao Zhe was infected by his enthusiasm and nodded repeatedly.

Chen Ye leaned back on the sofa, looking at Deng Chao's innocent and carefree appearance.

Silly Trendy Guy.

The roads in your hometown are probably not easy to travel.

Wang Zhengyu, that old scoundrel, chose Deng Chao's stronghold as his destination; how could he possibly have good intentions?

really.

After Deng Chao's excitement subsided slightly, Wang Zhengyu once again revealed his signature smile.

"Don't be too happy yet, everyone."

Wang Zhengyu looked at everyone with a smile.

"After we get on the bus, I'll lead everyone in... a little game."
