Living in an apartment: Only children make choices.

Lin Wanyu said earnestly.

"My request is..."

"No need to work long hours or get up early, can sit at work, close to home, no need to show your face, high salary and benefits, and the boss should ideally be an idiot!"

Xinling said awkwardly.

"Wanyu, your request seems a bit difficult to fulfill..."

Lin Yun waved his hand and said.

"Actually, it's quite easy to achieve. Wanyu, do you have any other requirements?"

"For example, what are the job requirements?"

Lin Wanyu said with a smile.

"Actually, it doesn't matter, but I went to the New York Conservatory of Music in college, so it would be best if I could work in a music-related field."

Lin Yun sat up straight and said.

"That's easy, Wanyu, you can become an independent musician!"

Xinling asked in confusion.

“I know musicians.”

What does "independent musician" mean?

Lin Wanyu explained with a smile.

"Independent musicians are musicians who are not signed with any record company."

"I write my own songs, record my own songs, and promote them myself."

Xinling stared wide-eyed and said admiringly.

Wow! That's amazing!

Lin Wanyu sighed and said.

"But becoming an independent musician is not that easy."

"Leaving aside the recording equipment, there's also the method of promotion..."

"The main problem is that I have absolutely no talent for creating music."

Lin Yun turned his head and asked.

"Wanyu, you don't need to worry about any of this!"

"I just want to ask you one thing: do you sing off-key?"

Lin Wanyu said speechlessly.

"Of course I won't run away..."

Lin Yun said with a smile.

"That makes things easier!"

"Leave the songwriting, recording equipment, and promotion to me; all you have to do is sing!"

Lin Wanyu said with a look of distrust.

"Really? You can write songs?"

Lin Yun said with a smile.

"You don't believe me? I'll write one for you right now!"

Just then, Hu Yifei shouted.

"Put everything on hold!"

"Come and eat now!"

Upon seeing this, the three hurriedly went to the dining table and looked at the fried rice in their respective bowls.

Lin Yun praised Hu Yifei's cooking skills while eating large mouthfuls of fried rice.

Xinling looked at the slightly blackened fried rice in the bowl, tentatively put a spoonful in her mouth, it tasted bland, she ate another spoonful, it was too salty, and the third spoonful was burnt and bitter.

A simple bowl of fried rice with eggs, yet Cyndi found a myriad of flavors in it, none of which could be described as delicious.

As Xinling watched Lin Yun eating with relish, she began to question the meaning of life.

Is it that Lin Yun's taste is too strong, or is my own sense of taste disordered? Why can't I taste anything delicious?

If Lin Yun knew what Xinling was thinking at this moment, he would definitely say this to her.

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't think it tasted good either."

"I ate heartily, simply because I felt that a short, sharp pain was better than a long, drawn-out one..."

Chapter Seventy-Six: Musical Genius (Seeking First Subscription!)

After a grueling lunch.

Lin Yun and the other two slumped onto the sofa, utterly dejected.

Lin Wanyu said listlessly.

"Lin Yun, didn't you say you were going to compose a song?"

Lin Yun sighed and said.

"Slow down, let me slow down a bit more..."

“You only ate one bowl each, but I ate half a pot.”

After a while, Lin Yun's stomach finally stopped reacting; of course, it's also possible that his stomach had already given up...

Lin Yun turned his head and asked.

"Wanyu, what kind of song do you want to sing?"

"Love songs, traditional Chinese style songs, folk songs, or what..."

Lin Wanyu said with a smile.

"I'm fine with anything. Whatever you write, I'll sing."

Hu Yifei walked over and said.

"I'm afraid Lin Yun is just bragging and can't actually write any songs!"

Lin Yun turned his head and said.

"Yifei, are you willing to bet?"

"I will compose three songs in front of the three of you within twenty minutes!"

Hu Yifei asked curiously.

"What are you gambling?"

Lin Yun said with a smile.

"If I win, you'll wash my feet tonight!"

Hu Yifei said, blushing.

"Fine! If you lose, you'll have to live on the balcony from today onwards!"

"You can move back in when I'm in a better mood!"

Lin Yun nodded and said.

"Okay! It's a deal!"

A gentleman's word is as good as a swift whip!

With that, Lin Yun got up and went to the study to get a pen and paper.

Xinling whispered from the side.

"Sister Yifei, aren't you afraid that Lin Yun will actually write it down?"

Hu Yifei smiled dismissively and said.

"Write it down?"

"Three songs in twenty minutes, does he really think he's Li Bai reincarnated?!"

Lin Wanyu nodded and said.

"Creating a song is not as simple as just writing lyrics."

"The rhythm, melody, and charm of the lyrics, the rhyming between phrases, etc.! These are all very important..."

"It's simply impossible to create three catchy songs in 20 minutes."

Just then, Lin Yun walked over with paper and pen and said something.

"impossible?"

"Then I'll show you what a miracle is today!"

"What defines a musical genius!"

Immediately afterwards, Lin Yun squatted down in front of the coffee table and began to write furiously. He would pause occasionally, but only for a few seconds, before continuing to write.

Before the twenty-minute time limit was up, Lin Yun stood up and said.

"Three songs, all written."

"Come and take a look."

Lin Wanyu took the three A4 sheets of paper and read out the titles of the three songs.

"The Rainbow Between," "Fairy Tale Town," and "The Bandit's Journey"

Hu Yifei complained from the side.

"Judging from the name, it's definitely a random, catchy pop song."
