Get the perfect music system at the start

The boss was stunned and didn't say anything more, because she also remembered that when the transfer was made, the boss's surname seemed to be Ding.

No wonder I always see this girl here, and she always requests Xu Fan's songs. Tonight, the resident singer was singing "Admitting Mistakes," and she requested that song too.

Xu Fan had actually been to this tavern quite a few times, but he had never told anyone else.

Publicity is unimportant to him, because Xu Fan came here mainly because of his approach.

After all, in a sense, Xu Fan is an artist, or rather, a public figure.

Even though Xu Fan has gradually disappeared from the entertainment industry in the past two years, he is still no ordinary person.

So he never told the girl in front of him that since she had met him tonight, he wouldn't say anything more.

The boss was slightly moved when he saw Xu Fan's tacit agreement.

Before she could speak, Li Huaduo solemnly extended her hand and said, "Nice to meet you, please take care of me."

A very novel way to greet someone.

Xu Fan reached out and grasped his fingertips, saying very seriously, "Xu Fan."

This was a formal introduction, but after he finished speaking, his gaze returned to the distance.

Xiao Zihan's voice was excellent, so Li Duoduo said again, "Sister Zihan's voice is really beautiful."

This was the second time she had said this tonight, and Xu Fan glanced at her with considerable curiosity.

Li Huaduo smiled as she looked at Xiao Zihan.

Yet she glanced at Xu Fan at just the right moment, a fleeting glance that Xu Fan still noticed.

As if sensing that Xu Fan had noticed her, Li Huaduo blushed slightly. She then remembered that she hadn't brought her teacup. She wanted to drink some tea to ease the awkwardness, but she didn't know how to start the conversation.

Xiao Zihan looked at Xu Fan.

Because she had drunk some alcohol, her eyes were somewhat glazed.

As the singing gradually stopped, Xiao Zihan handed the guitar to the resident singer and walked towards Xu Fan.

The singer's face was flushed, because her singing had been so beautiful.

And he finally remembered the name Xiao Zihan.

While surprised, I was also overjoyed.

His gaze followed Xiao Zihan's back, only to find that the man beside her had stood up and was preparing to leave.

The song "Hallucination" still lingered in my mind, while Xu Fan's silhouette was already in my sight.

He hesitated for a moment, then tried to chase after them.

The boss, quite inopportunely, came up to him and said, "There are still five songs left to sing tonight."

The singer frowned and said urgently, "I know, but...but I...he...he..."

The shop owner glanced at Xu Fan's retreating figure and said, "She paid for the song."

The singer quickly said, "It's not about whether he pays or not, it's about him..."

Xu Fan had already left with the two women. The shopkeeper said, "We can't catch up..."

The singer stared at the boss and said, "Is he really Brother Fan?"

The boss said, "Don't you young people have some misunderstanding about idol worship? Aren't there rumors online that he's not famous at all?"

To the boss, this was clearly a sign of disdain.

But the singer took it seriously, explaining, "That's all an illusion. It's just that we fans are busy growing up, while he just happened to disappear."

The boss was puzzled, so the singer explained: "It means that because our generation is at the intersection of our vision and studies, we no longer have time to express our emotions on the internet or by picking up a keyboard, but that doesn't mean we've forgotten him."

At this point, the singer said, somewhat exasperated, "Oh, why am I telling you all this? You wouldn't understand anyway."

After saying that, he turned and ran away without waiting for the boss to stop him.

But when he ran to the door, Xu Fan was nowhere to be seen.

Watching the singer's retreating figure, and recalling how Xu Fan had left so abruptly, the shop owner couldn't help but mutter to himself, "With these fans who love you, why worry about not having popularity when you return to the music scene?"

Xu Fan and Xiao Zihan were sitting in the car.

Li Huaduo inexplicably became their driver, but she was very excited.

She felt a subtle excitement; she had been drinking tea all evening.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong. Could this be considered a stroke of luck?

Xiao Zihan sat in the passenger seat, squinting at the road ahead, then suddenly turned to look at Li Huaduo and said, "Thank you."

A woman's intuition gave her a strange sense of danger towards the girl in front of her, but after all, Li Huaduo had indeed helped them tonight.

Li Duoduo quickly replied, "It feels like a dream, you're welcome."

Xu Fan didn't think too much about it. Just now, after Xiao Zihan finished singing, the surrounding crowd began to stir, and some people even whispered that they all recognized Xiao Zihan.

He had just decided to leave, and Li Huaduo volunteered to be his driver.

Xu Fan and the other man had both drunk some wine, so they readily agreed.

Xiao Zihan was very quiet along the way, and the three of them barely spoke.

Halfway there, Li Huaduo suddenly asked, "Brother Fan, are you planning to make a comeback?"

Xu Fan thought for a moment and said, "I don't think I ever announced that I was leaving the music scene."

Li Huaduo was stunned for a moment, then became even more excited.

She is a very pure and simple fan.

I like Xu Fan's songs and I like his voice.

So she asked again, "Did you really write Zihan's song 'A Diao'?"

Xu Fan hummed in agreement, and Li Duoduo said, "It sounds really good. Would you like to sing it too?"

Xiao Zihan glanced back at Xu Fan. She had prepared for Xu Fan to lip-sync when he sang tonight, but in reality, he sang live.

He sings live... but his voice...

Xu Fan said, "Yes."

The answer was so direct that Xiao Zihan subconsciously asked, "Your voice?"

Xu Fan said, "It'll be ready soon."

This is truly something to be happy about.

Xiao Zihan was even more intoxicated, but also happier.

He always felt happy when he saw news about Xu Fan online.

It seems like it has nothing to do with me, but I'm still very excited about it.

Li Duoduo didn't say anything, but she was still a little excited when she heard Xu Fan say "It'll be ready soon".

If it's true—no, if Xu Fan said it himself—then it must be true.

Once your voice is healed, we'll be able to hear your songs again.

Thinking about this, he subconsciously asked, "Can you write new songs?"

Xu Fan affirmed again, "Yes."

In the past, I explored the path of music through my memories.

His memories are fading with time, and he can't even remember many of them clearly. Sometimes, he even wonders if he has traveled from another time.

Because those memories are becoming increasingly blurry.

If it weren't for his good friend's death in a car accident, which constantly reminded him of the truth of the matter, he might have truly forgotten about it by now.

Fortunately, the emergence of the system gave him more confidence to face the future.

Xu Fan did not ask Li Duohua to take them to his home, nor did he ask her to take them to Xiao Zihan's home.

This is no longer a matter of belief or disbelief, no matter how sincere Li Huaduo appears.

Ultimately, it was still impossible to fully inform the other party.

Li Huaduo was very understanding and not angry.

In fact, the fact that she was able to obtain Xu Fan's contact information was already something to be happy about.

She will cherish this encounter, even if they may never exchange a greeting in the future, she will still be excited.

She knows that distance... is sometimes insurmountable.

So tonight she was constantly restraining the urge deep inside her to rush up and hug him.

A passionate fan meets the idol she has been longing for.

To be able to do what she did is actually quite impressive.

At least that's what she thought, watching the designated driver drive Xu Fan's car away.

With Xu Fan's comforting words, "Message me when you get home," echoing in her ears, she became even more excited.

She knew she would be sleepless that night.

This was the happiest night she had had in over twenty years.

===Chapter 1004 The Age of Madness===

It's unclear when exactly, but Xu Fan has become known as the most outstanding music icon. Many people are familiar with the name Xu Fan because from the moment he first appeared before the public, from the first time he sang that beautiful song "Sorrow," he became the most outstanding singer in everyone's hearts. Even though at that time, Xu Fan was just a newcomer, his songs undeniably captivated almost all young people. And since then, every song of Xu Fan seems to possess a special quality. Whether it's "Like Me" or other songs, they all prove that Xu Fan can subconsciously make everyone like him—a liking that comes from the depths of their hearts and extends to every corner and aspect of real life.

Many people have a deep-seated fondness for Xu Fan, which is difficult to describe or resolve. They clearly understand that the Xu Fan they admire is the all-around Xu Fan. What they like is watching his movies, seeing his eyes, witnessing his directing skills, listening to his songs, hearing his composing and lyric writing abilities, seeing the elegance of his poetry, and witnessing the tension in his works. You can see how frightening and captivating his suspense and tomb raiding stories are, yet you can also see Xu Fan's reflections and acceptance of society in his realistic literature. Everyone clearly understands that every lesson learned proves how powerful his personal abilities are. Therefore, when Xu Fan truly brought this film to the screen, allowing everyone to see it...

When it was arguably an excellent fantasy commercial film, everyone realized that Xu Fan was no different from anyone else; he was just an ordinary, utterly ordinary movie actor. But after that, he suddenly changed. He became more hardworking, more ambitious, and even more relentlessly driven. For him, it wasn't just about temporary growth; it was about going all out and forging ahead. No one could truly compare to him. At that moment, he never considered any other methods. For him, the only way to do better was to make the film as good as possible. Making the film wasn't the end; he clearly understood that the real end would only be when the film was released, achieved certain results, and gained wider recognition. And now, the film had only just begun its run.

The very sound of the film's opening notes signified that Xu Fan's personal abilities had been recognized by most people. In other words, when his film began its run, everyone clearly understood that this movie was about to officially appear on screen. Today was the highlight of the film, as everyone on set listened to Xu Fan's new song, "Three Lives Three Worlds." Deep down, everyone was incredibly moved. They had never imagined that the theme song they had been anticipating for this movie would be so beautiful. What they didn't expect was that Xu Fan himself had written and composed this theme song. Everyone knew that Xu Fan had written countless songs before, whether movie theme songs, sad love songs, or inspirational songs; every single one of them was a testament to his talent and ability. Therefore, when they heard such an excellent movie theme song from Xu Fan, their hearts were naturally even more excited. So, at this moment, the enthusiastic applause from everyone present was overwhelming.

Everyone was expressing their deep affection for Xu Fan and the song he wrote with the wildest applause, shouts, and cheers. The film was one of their favorites, and the applause seemed to repeat endlessly, as if expressing their love for Xu Fan in the best way they could. Xu Fan and his friends, including Xiao Zihan, Liu Tianwang, Yang Xiaomi, Zhao Feiyang, and Leng Xiaogu, were all equally excited. For them, witnessing Xu Fan's growth and success meant the success of their film, which in turn meant a box office hit. A box office hit meant a bright future. They hoped the film would have a very promising future. However, Xu Fan wasn't thinking about that too much today. As long as today's performance was successful, the word-of-mouth wouldn't be too bad, and even if the word-of-mouth was good, the box office shouldn't be too bad either. So, at this moment...

Xu Fan's gaze unconsciously swept over his companions. Each of them seemed excited at this moment. He understood that the program wasn't officially over yet, but when he looked at the media staff present, he knew there were still many media interviews to come. Everyone's eyes turned to the stage. Xu Fan calmly surveyed the scene and then said earnestly, "Okay, I know that everyone here, whether you're here in the studio, or in the online live stream, or any of the media members here, has a thousand thoughts or countless questions for me or my team. In the next short period, I will randomly select five people to ask questions. This includes our fans, meaning everyone here has a chance to participate. Everyone can answer. Now, all media staff, please wait a moment. After my interaction with the fans, please continue with your questions. At this time, everyone here, please pay attention to your hands and eyes, and look at me quietly."
