Huayu: Starting with Rejecting 00s Actresses on a Dating Show

Tan Wen brought out the guitar and tuned it a little.

"Then I'll begin."

Sun Yike was the first to clap her hands enthusiastically, forcing Tan Wen to find his rhythm again.

The song Tan Wen is going to sing is a reward he received when he was alone in a room with He Mi'er in Jianye. It's called "My Dear You" and it's quite nice.

"Let's dedicate this song to Lu Yuxiao."

Lu Yuxiao was initially reluctant to listen in a huff, but after hearing that it was a gift for her, she sat back down. However, she felt a little embarrassed that Tan Wen had said it was a gift for her in front of everyone.

Sun Yike's clapping hand froze instantly. Xu Jing's eyes darted back and forth between Tan Wen and Lu Yuxiao, her mind filled with increasing doubt. William always felt that Tan Wen was committing suicide; how could he stab himself like that?

Ao Ruipeng decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Tan Wen.

The strings swept across.

"My dearest one"

As soon as Tan Wen finished singing the first line, everyone turned their attention to Lu Yuxiao. Was he confessing his feelings?

Lu Yuxiao lowered her head in embarrassment and annoyance; the lyrics were just too blunt.

Tan Wen continued singing:

"We haven't seen each other for a long time"

Have you grown up a little?

dilapidated past

Fish Bay That Can't Be Left Behind

Stopped in the overgrown weeds

At that time, at home

Dad always covered his face

The air outside the window was thick with the smell of alcohol.

Tan Wen sang in a gentle, clear voice, as if telling a story, drawing the listener in without them even realizing it.

The crowd quickly became engrossed in the song, their bodies swaying unconsciously. But they gradually realized that the lyrics seemed to have nothing to do with men and women, but rather with family affection.

"What do you think you plan to do?"

Forget about your colorful body

Grow wings and fly far away

Loneliness surrounds longing

Anxiety flowed through him

Every step, every night

"The nightmare has been averted."

He Mier was on the phone in the second-floor corridor when she heard the singing. She put down her phone and subconsciously looked downstairs.

You will cross the mountain and see a clear blue sky.

Birds are flying over the sea

You will face the wind and sing boldly.

See all the scenery.

You will cross the mountains and see a vast plain.

Sunlight was shining through the clouds

You'll be clenching your fists, barefoot, and sweating.

Overcoming countless difficulties and dangers.

The climax builds up emotions, the narrative gradually transforms into an uncontrollable outpouring of emotion, and finally comes to an abrupt end.

Tan Wen put down his guitar, looked up, and found the living room eerily quiet.

Tan Wen nodded slightly.

Applause erupted, and the staff outside the small house also silently clapped along.

William fell silent. He regretted giving Tan Wen the opportunity to shine in front of everyone. What made him even more upset was that Tan Wen's singing skills were so good that they had reached a professional level.

Several girls had slightly red eyes.

"Tan Wen, you surprise me. I thought you were just a pretty face," Xu Jing exclaimed.

Tears welled up in Lu Yu's small eyes.

She recognized it as a song sung by parents to their children, encouraging them to face hardships and overcome difficulties on their future path, ultimately seeing the vast plains ahead.

Isn't this song about what happened to me just a couple of days ago? I was being slandered and cyberbullied, going through the darkest time of my life.

"Tan Wen really cares about me!" Lu Yu thought to herself.

The live stream chat was filled with unanimous exclamations of admiration.

"Sigh, you've successfully tricked me into crying. From now on, the responsibility of criticizing Tan Wen is yours. I can't do it anymore."

"He has been defending Xiao Lu these days, and I believe he absolutely likes Xiao Lu."

"I'm so touched, I have to call my mom."

"Sigh, who does Tan Wen actually like? If all else fails, he should just take both of them."

Just then, a poll icon popped up in the live stream, asking: Who does Tan Wen really like? Lu Yuxiao or He Mi'er? Please give your answer.

Director Lei Yi was quite moved. He was very satisfied with Tan Wen's performance, feeling that the man was exceptionally talented and had the makings of an actor.

Tan Wen's behavior towards Lu Yu was so realistic that even he, who knew it was a script, sometimes got a little hooked.

······

"Thank you, I really like this song," Lu Yu said with a relaxed expression.

"Call me Dad!" Seeing her puzzled look, Tan Wen added, "This is a song that Dad wrote for his child. If you like it, just call me Dad."

"Get lost." Lu Yu got up and ran away.

Xu Jing wiped away her tears and followed Lu Yuxiao.

Sun Yike moved closer to Tan Wen: "Brother Tan Wen, I didn't know you were a professional singer. Did you study music before?"

"no."

"Then how come you sing so well?"

"talent."

Sun Yike was annoyed. She found that Tan Wen had no patience for her at all and his sentences were so short that they didn't even last for a line.

"Brother, shall we talk?" Ao Ruipeng patted Tan Wen on the shoulder.

"OK, go ahead."

"Let's talk privately." Ao Ruipeng gestured for someone outside.

Tan Wen thought for a moment and followed, he could roughly guess what Ao Ruipeng wanted to talk about.

The two walked through the grove and went to a place where the cameras couldn't capture their shots.

"Turn off the microphone," Ao Ruipeng said to Tan Wen, and Tan Wen thought the same thing.

He took out a cigarette and threw it to Ao Ruipeng, but Ao Ruipeng refused, saying he didn't smoke.

"Take it, you'll need it later." Tan Wen lit it for himself. "Go ahead and say it."

Ao Ruipeng cut straight to the point: "What's the situation between you and Lu Yuxiao?"

"You should try contacting someone else," Tan Wen sincerely advised.

"I don't understand, what does this have to do with me changing my contact partners?"

Tan Wen looked at him sympathetically without saying a word. Ao Ruipeng seemed to understand something from his eyes. He opened his mouth, but finally sighed, "Can I borrow a light?"

······

After the two finished smoking a few cigarettes, they came out of the woods and saw Lu Yuxiao carrying a puppy as she left. Lu Yuxiao also saw them.

"Tan Wen," Lu Yu called out softly.

"They're here."

When Ao Ruipeng saw that Lu Yu clearly saw two people but only called out Tan Wen's name, completely ignoring him, his last bit of hope was finally shattered.

However, he did not intend to give up, after all, there were still twenty days left, and anything could happen.

In particular, Tan Wen often dances wildly on the edge of a cliff, and he might just kill himself.

"You should smoke less; the smell is too strong," Lu Yu said, frowning slightly in the car.

"Are you trying to control me?"

Lu Yu rolled her eyes slightly, then asked casually, "Was that song also written specifically for me?"

"Hmm." Tan Wen replied without blushing or skipping a beat.

Lu Yu's eyes lit up. "Thank you."

"You've said thank you to me way too many times," Tan Wen said impatiently. "If you keep doing this, I'm not writing songs for you anymore."

"Okay." Lu Yu nodded quietly.

Tan Wen hung up his phone; he had just received a text message from the production team:

[Please keep this confidential; this notification is only for you. You are about to have a special date. Please set off immediately. This is a date that belongs to you, so please keep it a secret!]

He refused outright!

"Isn't it dirty to carry the dog on your body like that?"

Lu Yu glanced at him and said, "You're not allowed to look down on him in the future."

······

Inside the cabin, William looked at the text message on his phone:

[Please keep this confidential; this notification is only for you. You are about to have a special date. Please set off immediately. This is a date that belongs to you, so please keep it a secret!]

His first thought was that a new female guest was coming. He looked up and glanced around, and seeing that no one else had received the text message, he figured that he was the only one chosen for the date.

A slight smile played on his lips as he quietly got up and returned to his room. He took a shower, changed into a bespoke suit, sprayed on cologne, and slipped out of the small house unnoticed.

Ten minutes later, Ao Ruipeng received a text message. Ten minutes after that, Kent also received the same text message.

An hour later, the production crew called Tan Wen directly.
