They don't actually think I like them, do they?

This is so disappointing!

One of the main reasons Lin Han signed the contract was because he liked challenges, but the betting agreement turned out to be so easily broken. It's really boring.

However, there was another thing that still excited Lin Han.

The long-dormant Honkai Index has experienced an unprecedented surge!

In just seven days, Lin Han's Collapse Index jumped from 50,000 to 120,000.

A total of 70,000, that's an average of 10,000 per day!

All of this is the result of Lin Han's efforts to change the trend of the Chinese entertainment industry. Lin Han has thoroughly promoted "love songs" in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Through Lin Han's efforts, something that was not accepted by the public gradually became accepted by everyone.

Therefore, the feeling of "collapse" is quite limited.

Now, Lin Han believes he has squeezed almost all the value out of "love songs," and it's time to forge a new path.

Two days later, Lin Han's new song "Cheers" was officially released.

016. New song released!

April 26th is destined to be a day that everyone will remember.

Ten days after the release of Yili Sweet Orange Jam's debut album, all seven songs on the album have become hits across the internet.

Clothing stores and milk tea shops along Jinchuan Street play love songs like "Confession Balloon," "Lovely Woman," and "Blue and White Porcelain," bringing a good mood to every passerby.

In fact, according to statistics, 80 percent of bars across the country played "Midnight DJ" on this day.

Twenty years after the war ended, people finally began to slowly accept love songs. After being influenced by all kinds of inspirational and positive songs for decades, everyone has finally ushered in songs that can let go of all their inner burdens and appreciate with true feelings!

"Oh my god, Orange Jam's songs are really good. Now I can't stop thinking about the melody of the song. It's been a long time since I've had a song where I can enjoy the music without worrying about the lyrics!"

"Juju Jam is truly amazing! I've always loved youth romance literature, but the people around me didn't approve. Now, at least, I can finally hear love songs that touch my heart!"

"Waaaaah, Orange Jam's songs are so sweet! My family bought an album, and my parents have been arguing much less since they started listening to it!"

“Our family runs a restaurant next to a nursing home. For ten years, we’ve played songs praising war heroes every day, saying it would help the elderly face life positively. But actually, playing them too often only makes them feel more and more depressed. Now, since we started playing songs by Orange Marmalade, everyone’s mood has improved! The elderly are smiling more!”

"..."

Comments like these are becoming increasingly common online, with many netizens expressing that they genuinely felt joy from Orange Jam's music!

Although in this era, praising "love" is still considered a less respectable art form, the essence of songs is to entertain the public. If we get too caught up in the "high" or "low" of entertainment itself, we will never experience true joy.

And that's the carefree joy that orange jam brings to people. As long as you hum along to "Remember you said home is the only castle, running along the rice paddy river~", the corners of your mouth will involuntarily turn up, and you'll feel the good mood that this song brings you. That's enough.

Just as everyone was immersed in the sweet joy brought by the album "Yili's Cute and Sweet Orange Marmalade",

Orange Jam has released a new song!

This news was like a wake-up call, exciting netizens.

The album was released less than half a month ago, and a new song has already come out.

The marmalade is still the same old marmalade, prolific as ever!

This wave is double the fun!

.......

Chuandi City Mental Hospital, Ward 777.

This is a well-known ward in the entire hospital, where an elderly man lies asleep, and this man has been there longer than most of the hospital's staff.

"Thank you for taking care of me."

At the door of the ward, Li Ming spoke to the doctor.

"You're welcome. Your family invests such a large sum in our hospital every year; it's what we should do," the doctor said with a smile.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Ming entered the ward and went to the old man's bedside.

He placed a bouquet of flowers on the old man's bedside table, his eyes full of tenderness.

The old man in the bed was his father.

Twenty years ago, my father participated in a war as a soldier.

His 17th Army was almost completely wiped out in a battle, and he was the only one who survived, but he became a vegetable.

That sleep lasted for twenty years.

The doctor said that, generally speaking, if a person in a vegetative state doesn't wake up within the first six months, it's almost impossible for them to recover. However, Li Ming was unwilling to give up on his father's treatment, and he gave the hospital a large sum of money every year to keep his father there.

Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Today is the day Li Ming visits his father, a day that comes once a year.

Li Ming skillfully helped her father tidy his clothes, then found a chair and sat down next to him.

Twenty years have passed, and Li Ming's grief has long been diluted by time, but his love for his father has never diminished.

As in previous years, he was in a relaxed mood, peeling oranges and chatting with his father.

"Dad, your grandson started kindergarten yesterday. On his first day, he learned to use the toilet by himself. The teacher said he's smart and has half the spirit of me when I was a kid!"

"Mom is still the same. She refuses to come see you no matter what I say, and I can't persuade her at all. At the beginning of the year, she even said she was going to throw away your coffee tables, which were your treasures! I was so angry that I had a fight with her. Sigh, Mom was secretly crying in the tea room at night while fiddling with your things. I really don't know what she's thinking!"

"Speaking of which, there's a singer called Orange Jam who's really popular lately. He writes love songs! They're really good, and my mom loves listening to them too. Ever since we've been playing them at home every day, she seems to be in a much better mood..."

As Li Ming was speaking with a smile, his phone suddenly made a "ding".

He opened his phone and saw it was a notification from QQ Music in the background:

"The singer you follow, Orange Jam, has released a new song!"

"Fuck!"

Li Ming immediately became excited and said to his father,

"We were just talking about him, and now this Orange Jam update has come out. I have to talk to you now, I need to listen to it right away!"

Li Ming quickly opened his music player; it was a song called "Cheers".

Although Li Ming appeared relaxed on the surface, his conversation with his father left him feeling uneasy.

Perfect timing! Let's take a break, listen to some songs by Orange Jam, and relax.

Li Ming clicked play.

"——

Is it possible that one day, time could truly go backwards?

Let's rewind to those bygone years, the years that can never be relived.

Perhaps one day, the world will truly come to an end.

I also want to raise a glass with you, a sweet memory~

......"

There wasn't a long intro; it started right away with Orange Jam's consistently beautiful vocals.

The melody is as beautiful as ever, but listening to the lyrics... it doesn't seem like a love song?

"...

If I had to choose the image that represents youth,

That tear, that blue sky, that year of graduation—all came to mind.

That face, crying and laughing at the same time, still wanting to hug you, is yours.

Thinking back on them, they were so cute, so pitiful, so moving—how I miss them!

 …”

For a moment, Li Ming was stunned.

Wait a minute, this is a song... reminiscing about the past?

wrong! ! !

We must escape!!!

By the time Li Ming realized what was happening, it was too late.

As the chorus approached, the rhythm remained light and leisurely. However, when Orange Jam sang the lyrics of the chorus again, he completely lost his composure!

017. The one I miss, I await your arrival.

Following the sound of orange jam, Li Ming returned to his childhood, back to the village bathed in the scorching summer sun.

Li Ming's father's short life unfolds slowly in his memories...

In Li Ming's memory, his father was a truly honest man, always polite and courteous to everyone. Though not eloquent, he was kind and always surrounded by a group of drinking buddies. To put it more nicely...

My father is an easy-going and honest man; to put it bluntly, he's a doormat.

However, even though he was such a passive person who dared not express his anger, he stood up for his family and often yelled at his mother and Li Ming over trivial matters.

From a young age, Li Ming despised his father, believing him to be nothing more than a coward who reserved his best temper for outsiders and his worst temper for his family.

However, it must be admitted that my father worked very hard to ensure that the family had enough to eat. He worked from early morning to late at night and handed over all his wages to my mother for safekeeping.

He didn't receive much formal education growing up, spending his childhood playing wildly with a few friends. He was a notorious "troublemaker" in the village, always running around in his underwear until the snow melted, and before he knew it, he was all grown up. He often said that the only successful thing he ever did in his life was marrying my mother.

Such a father is probably not ambitious; he is content as long as he has enough to eat and wear. Sometimes, when he gets lucky and wins a few dollars at cards, he is as happy as a child, proudly grabbing Li Ming's hand and asking him what he wants to eat.

Li Ming, who was already in the county's key junior high school at that time, was full of ideals to realize his life's value. He looked down on his father, who had spent his whole life trying to make ends meet, and his desire to leave this small rural village grew stronger.

Then war broke out.

The country did not mandate conscription, but my father insisted on joining the army, dragging along several of his childhood friends.

"The country has reached this point. If we strong men don't step forward, the enemy will target our families next!"

He had a big argument with his mother about this, but Li Ming didn't say a word and just stared blankly at everything.

Li Ming's father, who was timid and cowardly, uneducated, and had no ambitions, whose biggest dream was to eat three dishes and a soup, showed a stubborn persistence in this matter.

Finally, the mother couldn't persuade him otherwise and had to agree.

The father hugged the mother and cried for a long, long time. This was the first time Li Ming had ever seen his father cry.

These once-disliked, idle children from the village became the first in the village to join the army.

That night, he had never seen his father and his cronies drink so much, nor had he ever seen them drink so happily.

The next morning, Li Ming held his mother's hand and watched his father and friends leave their hometown along the country road as the sun set.

The last words Li Ming said to his father were, "Dad, you must come back."

"...

Eventually, we will all become yesterday.

You accompanied me through this fleeting life, a life that only happens once.

One day is today, and today is one day~

I'll finally express the gratitude I've always wanted to give you.

Let's have another drink, another drink, forever~

Drinking this will grant you long life and prosperity year after year!

......"

Li Ming's eyes gradually welled up with tears.

He always knew that his father had been a farmer all his life and didn't understand anything, but the only thing he understood was his family.

The mother was reluctant to come to the hospital, but she would still often sit on the chair in front of the house, waiting for the father to come back, until his hair turned white, until his legs became weak, until many people disappeared.

Time has stopped, they've all returned, those we've missed, we await your arrival~

Time has stopped, they've all returned, those we've missed, we await your arrival~

The voice of the mandarin orange marmalade hummed softly, accompanied by an exquisitely beautiful melody...

Let's break through the thick fog of war and return to that era.

The man crawled out from a pile of corpses, where blood flowed like a river.
