A song called "The You of the Past" has prompted the entire internet to beg me not to leav

Saturday night, 7:50 p.m.

The entire Weibo trending topics list was eerily calm, like a powerful move being held back before a storm.

Ever since Qingqiu Studio announced that the new album's first single would be released tonight at 8 PM, the entire internet has been focused on it.

However, there are still many haters who are jumping up and down on various forums, desperately trying to stir up trouble.

"Waiting for Shen Qingqiu to crash and burn! A female celebrity nearing thirty trying to act young? Does she really think the audience isn't picky?"

"I heard the first single is a sweet song? With Shen Qingqiu's perpetually icy face, isn't he afraid of giving people a heart attack by singing a sweet song?"

"Lin Yan has definitely run out of ideas! He can't write a great song like 'Blue and White Porcelain,' so he can only resort to shoddy, mass-produced pop songs to fool people!"

Inside the villa on the hillside, Lin Yan was sitting cross-legged on the carpet, his hands moving rapidly as he operated the television.

Shen Qingqiu curled up on the sofa, gripping the tablet tightly and staring at the countdown. He appeared calm and collected, but his palms were sweaty.

It's exactly eight o'clock.

The official account of Qingqiu Studio simultaneously updated the status on three major platforms: Tencent Music, NetEase Cloud Music, and Douyin (TikTok).

"【Lyrics and music production by Lin Yan】Shen Qingqiu's new digital album's first single, 'Love You,' is released online for the first time. This world is cool, but you are sweet."

Below is a three-minute music video.

Within just ten seconds, tens of millions of clicks flooded into the servers like a tsunami.

The video screen lit up, but it lacked the usual grand snow-capped mountains, wilderness, or cold, black-and-white tones.

The first thing you see is a large expanse of bright yellow campus background.

Shen Qingqiu wore an extremely fitted preppy-style pleated skirt, paired with a white shirt and bow tie, and her hair was tied in a high ponytail.

That aloofness vanished completely, replaced by a fresh and natural youthful makeup look.

The upbeat and bouncy reggae rhythm in the intro immediately grabbed everyone's attention.

In the scene, Shen Qingqiu sways her body gently to the beat, her movements simple yet exuding a natural charm.

If you suddenly sneeze, it must be because I'm thinking of you.

The moment the first line of lyrics was sung, the slightly breathy, excessively sweet voice pierced through the screen.

At that moment, the brains of all the netizens who clicked on the video completely froze.

Is this really Shen Qingqiu?

This is even more jaw-dropping than a sow climbing a tree!

But the facts are clear: in the video, Shen Qingqiu is dancing a simple and easy-to-learn dance to the rhythm.

Every turn, every glance back, exudes an irresistible charm.

"If I get woken up by my phone in the middle of the night, ah, that's because I care."

"I often wonder if you have ulterior motives for what you say. I really want to believe you, but I can't help but doubt you."

The lyrics are straightforward, and the melody is extremely catchy.

This insane contrast instantly shattered everyone's psychological defenses.

The chorus finally arrives.

"Oh baby, say more sweet words, and look at me more if you miss me."

"Perform a little more, so that I can truly see it."

"Oh bye, say less, I want to spend more than just one day with you."

"Just a little more, so I can love you willingly!"

With the final words "I love you," Shen Qingqiu made a heart shape with both hands towards the camera, a radiant yet slightly shy smile blooming on her face.

Lore!

The entire internet exploded.

The top trending topic on Weibo skyrocketed at an alarming rate, followed by a dark red "Explosive" label: #ShenQingqiuLovesYou#

Immediately afterwards, the second, third, and fourth entries were all compromised.

#Ice Queen Turns into Sweet Girl#

#What exactly did Lin Yan do to Shen Qingqiu?#

#MachoMenOnlineCarnival#

The barrage of comments on major video platforms has become so thick that it has blurred the image.

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! My girlish heart is fluttering! I'm in love!"

"I hereby unilaterally declare that this song has set a new standard for sweet songs in the Chinese entertainment industry!"

"Just who is Lin Yan? How could he have molded Shen Qingqiu into this state?!"

"Am I the only one who noticed these lyrics? This isn't singing at all, it's clearly Shen Qingqiu's public confession to Lin Yan!"

"The relationship is confirmed! Absolutely confirmed! I'll gladly accept this dose of PDA!"

In the living room of the villa.

Shen Qingqiu felt her cheeks burning as she looked at the screen full of praise and comments about shipping the couple.

She secretly glanced at Lin Yan, who was sitting on the carpet playing games.

As if sensing something, Lin Yan casually remarked, "Basic stuff, don't be so smug, calm down."

The jubilation outside continues.

Those trolls who tried to stir up trouble were completely swept away by this overwhelming flood of online traffic, leaving not even a ripple.

Just as the entire internet was immersed in this incredibly sweet and catchy song, the time quietly arrived at midnight.

Without warning, Qingqiu Studio's official account dropped another bombshell.

"【Lyrics and music production by Lin Yan】Shen Qingqiu’s new digital album’s second single, “Later,” is now available in its pure audio version. Thank you for having been here, even if you were just passing by."

This sudden attack left netizens, who hadn't yet recovered from the shock of "Love You," completely dumbfounded.

Double lead singles? You can release songs like this?

Many netizens clicked on the audio of "Later" out of curiosity.

There was no upbeat reggae rhythm, nor an electric cello.

Yes, but only extremely clean and clear guitar strumming and piano undertones.

Shen Qingqiu's voice changed again.

That sweetness vanished completely, replaced by a sense of relief and regret that comes with having experienced the vicissitudes of life.

"Later, I finally learned how to love. But you were already gone, lost in the sea of ​​people."

Later, I finally understood through tears that some people, once missed, are gone forever.

These two sentences are like a knife, directly breaking through the softest corner of countless listeners' hearts.

Late at night is a time when emotions run high.

In this world, whose youth hasn't been filled with someone they missed? Whose memories haven't been filled with regrets?

The melody and lyrics of "Later" precisely ignite this emotion.

The warrior of pure love fell to the ground.

The comment section for the song "Later" on NetEase Cloud Music surpassed 100,000 views in just ten minutes.

"Just now, listening to 'Love You,' I was laughing like a fool in bed; now, listening to 'Later,' I'm hiding under the covers and crying like a dog. It's all knives, knives everywhere!"

"Lin Yan, are you inhuman?! One second you're showering me with sweetness, the next you're throwing knives at me!"

"This song reminds me of that summer ten years ago. Liu Ting, I'm sorry, I still couldn't marry you in the end."

A mix of sweetness and heartbreak, a double emotional blow.

That night, Lin Yan and Shen Qingqiu's names were completely elevated to legendary status.

Five songs, only two of which were played, and the netizens were already stunned.

Those capitalists who make money by producing mass-produced pop songs have fallen silent when they see the terrifyingly high numbers for these two songs!
