13: Chapter 13 Brother, are you younger than me?

I have to say, the feeling of getting something for free is great...

And, this girl is actually quite nice...

"Thank you, Teacher Ruan."

"Teacher Ruan, 'I Am a Fish' is already taken, and it's better suited for a male voice. The next song for a female voice will definitely be for you."

Ruan Xingyu didn't mind.

"Don't say that, we'll see if it suits me first [Dog Head]."

Good grief, she's calling him out.

Isn't it just because when she asked him for a song earlier, he said something like "I'll give it to you if you sing well"?

What a vengeful woman.

"Also, stop calling me Teacher Ruan, or I'll call you Teacher Lin too."

Perhaps because she had helped him with something and shared her account with him, Ruan Xingyu inexplicably felt that the distance between them had shortened, and she was unexpectedly less reserved in her speech.

Lin Chuyan thought for a moment and sent a voice message.

Ruan Xingyu glanced around and quietly stood up.

She found an empty conference room and played it.

"I need you, I Am a Fish, the air in the water, it's your pettiness and bad temper..."

Ruan Xingyu's lake-like eyes grew brighter, as if a ray of sunlight were shining upon them.

She was a bit surprised; his timbre and vocal conditions were quite good.

Xingxing: "It sounds good."

She clicked it and listened again.

Ruan Xingyu pursed her lips, confusion rising in her heart.

"Your voice sounds so young. Bro, you aren't... younger than me, are you?"

Lin Chuyan was speechless, but he was as stubborn as a mule.

"We're the same age."

People of the same age, referring to those with the same or similar age.

No problem with that.

Ruan Xingyu didn't think much of it and admired him even more.

She was an outstanding Singer, but unfortunately, she wasn't very good at Songwriting; she deeply admired the talented people in the industry, especially those so young, which was rare.

She felt inexplicably happy inside, perhaps because of the tone he used when chatting?

Chatting with industry insiders was actually quite tiring; unless she knew them inside and out—like her best friend, her long-term producer Zheng Hai, or her little assistant—it was impossible to completely let her guard down.

Even peers and juniors in the same company seemed to respect her, but she knew that many people behind her back coveted the position of "Top Star of Tianxing."

This circle was just like that—a vanity fair, a filthy place.

The amazing thing about Lin Chuyan was that he didn't feel like an industry insider, nor did he feel like an outsider to Ruan Xingyu.

He was like someone who had suddenly burst into the entertainment industry, without background or connections, bringing only one song. After it became the lead single for her new album, he retreated back outside the circle.

He didn't seem to have any reaction to the name "Ruan Xingyu" as if seeing a "superstar." His style was casual; he said whatever he wanted, joked when he wanted, and chatting with him was inexplicably relaxing.

And in reality, that was exactly how it was.

Lin Chuyan's identity as a transmigrator destined that he would naturally be disenchanted with the artists of Blue Star.

Honestly, if you wanted to get him excited, you should have David Tao talk to him... (He was a fan of David Tao).

And so.

The two of them held their phones, chatting on and off, and the topic gradually began to drift away from work.

"Do you like cats a lot? You have so many cat memes."

"I love them! But unfortunately, work is too busy, and I can't keep one."

"I will definitely keep one in the future."

"I can tell, your profile picture is so cute. But why in the future?"

"Because, like Teacher Ruan, I estimate that I will be quite busy for a long time and won't have time to take care of one."

Ruan Xingyu could tell that Lin Chuyan would call her Teacher whenever he teased her.

"It seems that besides being someone in Songwriting, Teacher Lin has other identities."

"The housing prices in Beijing are too expensive; relying only on selling songs won't cut it."

"So what is your job?"

"It's boring to just say it directly; why don't you guess?"

"And if I guess it right?"

"A, I'll write you a song. B, when I get a cat in the future, I'll give you the status of godmother."

Xingxing (replied in a second): "I choose B!"

"It's a good thing I'm not a fan, otherwise I'd definitely be frustrated by your lack of ambition."

"Huh, you're actually not a fan?"

"Otherwise what? Where did you see that I was your fan?"

Xingxing: "[Image]"

Xingxing: "Even fans aren't as good at protecting me as you are."

Damn! Lin Chuyan was a bit dumbfounded; it was actually a screenshot of him using Lin Mo's account in the comment section, righteously persuading "Mosquito Hits Cannon" not to bring hate to Xingxing.

"It's like this, listen to my explanation."

"Emmm... if I say I was just bored and teasing him, do you believe me?"

He couldn't say he had a habit of being a jerk, could he?

Xingxing: "I believe you."

Ruan Xingyu didn't know why, but she was laughing uncontrollably on the other end with her phone.

This scene, in the eyes of her assistant Wen Qi, was no less than seeing a cat doing a backflip.

Shocking.

"Sis! Why are you hiding here? I've been looking for you everywhere, and you didn't reply to my messages."

Ruan Xingyu looked up at her little assistant, then looked down and typed rapidly:

"Can't talk now, going to practice Singing, bye!"

She quickly shoved her phone into her pocket: "I didn't see your messages."

Wen Qi looked suspicious: "Didn't see them? Weren't you just playing on your phone?"

Ruan Xingyu knew she was in the wrong, reached out to pinch her little assistant's cheek, pushed her out, and forcibly saved face: "You talk too much! Let's go, let's go!"

...

Lin Chuyan replied "OK," scrolled up the chat history, ordered the books recommended by Ruan Xingyu, and prepared to start watching the courses she lent him.

If a pretty girl is willing to chat, chat a bit more; if she's busy, then everyone minds their own business. Losing sense of proportion and overdoing it will only make people annoyed.

Downloading the Lezhisheng APP, Lin Chuyan logged in directly and found that it not only had videos teaching Singing but also tutorials for various musical instruments.

Whether he could learn it or not was another matter, but at least Ruan Xingyu had bought everything that needed to be bought.

Good stuff.

In his previous life, he didn't have the conditions, so be it. In this life, with the system, a good image, he wouldn't be reconciled if he didn't put in the effort.

Lin Chuyan began to calm down and study.

Wu Yue wasn't idle either, saying he had already scheduled a time with Teacher Li Mujian to visit him tomorrow afternoon.

As the saying goes, sharpen your spear just before the battle; even if it's not sharp, it will still shine. Unfortunately, he didn't even have a direction on how to sharpen it, so he could only take it one step at a time, adapt to the situation, and add the remaining points when the time came.

...

Li Mujian's house was far from the city center. The next afternoon, while Wu Yue was driving him there, Lin Chuyan's phone suddenly vibrated.

Xingxing: "Pre-rehearsal went okay; recording starts in two days."

Lin: "[Image]"

Lin Chuyan snapped a photo of the scenery on the road and sent it over: "On the way to visit an elder, a little nervous."

"Nervous? Why?"

"I want him to be my teacher, but the old gentleman might not be willing to take me on, so this meeting counts as an assessment."

"You are so hardworking..."

"Aren't you the same?"

"I want to take a vacation."

Lin Chuyan was free anyway, so he continued chatting on and off: "If you take a vacation, where do you want to go?"

The other party was actually willing to reply.

"Ideally, a place where I can stay comfortably and where no one knows me."

Lin Chuyan got it in a second: "Got it, a homebody."

"Hahaha, you understand me."

"Work is too tiring; when you rarely have time to rest, lying down is the most comfortable."

"Yes, yes!"

"It would be even better if there were a cat?"

"You really understand me. [Orange cat with a laser sword wiggling.GIF]"

Ruan Xingyu started laughing at her phone again.
