Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?

Chapter 279 I'll Share the Headphones with You

Why are you thanking me?

Qi Luo'an stared into thought at the reader comments on her inbox, a chorus of "Thank you, Sister Qi!" Anyone who didn't know better would think she'd saved the world...

It was rare for netizens to have such a unified opinion. She took a closer look and found that everyone was thanking her for dating Yu Wei.

This matter is abstract, but netizens believe that Yu Wei wrote the song "Seven Mile Fragrance" because he was in a relationship.

In other words, without Qi Luoan, there might not be this song. They rarely get to enjoy it so much, so shouldn't they thank Sister Qi?
Yu Wei, who has never been in a relationship, writes love songs based on assumptions. But it's really different when someone has been in a relationship; a song with such vivid imagery of love is ridiculously strong.

It is said that art comes from life. If Yu Wei had never experienced sweet love, could he have written this?
While it may seem that Qi Luoan was just having a romance, she was actually helping Yu Wei complete his life experience, giving him more experiences and inspiration to create.

The ambiguity and sweetness in this song are hard to say if they are not Yu Wei's thoughts and feelings in love. Without Sister Qi, where would these details come from?

If they want to hear something similar in the future, they can just rely on Qi Luoan to put in the effort. He just needs to be more affectionate with Yu Wei, and the song will come out!

"Less work, more flirting; don't be apart for more than three minutes; remember to carry paper and pen with you so that Yu Wei can jot down more song material."

Netizens are now eager to lock the two of them together, listen to them more, watch them more, and feel them more, and then have more songs of this caliber.

Qi Luoan has gone through so many posts, is he trying to get people to have children? Others are urging for babies, but these two are urging for songs to be born.

In the eyes of netizens now, Yu Wei is just a songwriting sow, and she's a breeding boar. If she breeds like this a few more times, everyone will never have to worry about running out of songs to listen to again...

"Thank you so much."

That's not the same thing. Inspiration isn't something you can just have whenever you want. Yu Wei isn't an experiential writer; he's a genius. When inspiration strikes, he can write without even talking about it.

Besides, it wasn't something she could decide. After listening to the song, Qi Luoan felt a warmth in her heart and was filled with love, but when she got home, she found Yu Wei locked in his room, typing away.

Since everyone was in complete seclusion, Qi Luoan naturally wouldn't disturb them, and could only listen to music and read netizens' comments alone in her room.

Yu Wei has been very busy lately, filming movies and writing for competitions. She's not the kind of girl who complains that her boyfriend loves games more than her. She has to wait for the right moment to get tired of him.

"Stop just talking nonsense, give us some advice!"

Qi Luoan sighed, then listened to "Seven Mile Fragrance" again, a satisfied smile on his face as he listened.

The afternoon sun fell perfectly on her profile, and the lyrics "The rain falls all night, my love overflows like rainwater" stirred ripples in her heart.

As everyone knows, the flower language of Murraya paniculata is "I am your captive"...

She couldn't take it anymore. Now that things had come to this, there was no need for her to pretend to be a gentleman. Today, she had to make Yu Wei obediently submit!
Qi Luoan, barefoot, like a cat that leaves no trace in the snow, secretly squeezed through the crack in Yu Wei's door.

The only light source in the room was the monitor in front of Yu Wei, and the sound of rapid, dense typing was as he was engrossed in coding.

Seeing how focused he was, Qi Luo'an began to have second thoughts; perhaps it wouldn't be right to disturb his work...

"what happened?"

Yu Wei heard the creaking of the door hinges, turned around and glanced at Qi Luoan. He was sneaking around, clearly up to no good.

"The new song is great."

Qi Luoan smiled at him. Well, she was already here, so there was no need to hesitate. She had come today with the expectations of many netizens, so what was there to be afraid of?
She looked around, trying to find a place to sit down, but glancing at Yu Wei next to the computer and the empty headboard, she had a bold idea.

Without a word, Qi Luoan sat precisely on his lap, causing the chair to wobble slightly, as if it hadn't expected to be sat on by two people one day...

Ergonomic chair: Speak for me!

Yu Wei stiffened abruptly, but his body instinctively and gently hugged her, afraid that she might fall off if she didn't sit properly.

"What is this for?"

In fact, Qi Luoan was far more nervous than Yu Wei, but when she acted impulsively, Yu Wei was no match for her. When given the opportunity to make a choice, don't let yourself regret it.

She didn't say anything, but simply took out her left earphone and gave it to him. Yu Wei looked closely and realized that she was wearing the other earphone.

"Let's listen to music together."

Did you come all this way just for this?
Yu Wei readily accepted the offer, because as a singer, he had never listened to music with others, nor had he experienced the romance of sharing his headphones with someone else.

Listening to your own songs together, how narcissistic!
But this time it's different. This song has been modified, and both the timbre and singing style are almost identical to what he remembers, making it a rare perspective from the audience.

The prelude to "Seven Mile Fragrance" came through the headphones at just the right time, and the melody of wind and wind chimes enveloped the two of them.

"The taste of Pacific saury"
Both the cat and you want to know.

Upon hearing this, Qi Luoan suddenly turned his head, his nose almost touching Yu Wei's cheek: "I really want to know what it's like to be with Yu."

Yu Wei seized the opportunity and gave her a headbutt. The dull thud of the head hitting her forehead made the air seem to freeze for a moment. "Is the fish head delicious?"

Qi Luoan, in a fit of anger, suddenly adjusted his posture, almost causing them to lose their balance and slide off the chairs at the same time.

The two quickly regained their balance, their earphones nearly falling out in the process, as if reminding them that they were still in the same musical world.

"damn thing!"

Calling a dog is fine, cats really can't handle dogs...

Despite grumbling, Qi Luoan really enjoyed the process. They were very close, and they didn't have to think about or do anything; they were just listening to the same song.

When the song enters the chorus "It rains all night, my love overflows like rainwater," the whole atmosphere becomes ambiguous.

They shared not only music, but also heartbeats, body temperature, and this moment stretched out by the melody...

Even after the entire song had finished, they remained frozen in place, a subtle feeling that was quite rare.

"Is she heavy?" After sitting for a while, Qi Luoan was a little worried that Yu Wei's legs were stiff. She considered herself to be quite slim, but since she wasn't a celebrity, she didn't deliberately maintain her weight.

"No, no, I'm no good."

What kind of time is this to still be using puns?
Qi Luoan elbowed him with his elbow, hitting Yu Wei squarely in the chest with a thud, clearly indicating that the blow was not light.

Yu Wei hissed in pain and subconsciously turned her head to look at her counterpart.

Shouldn't we retaliate?

Anyone who has written online novels knows that some things can't pass censorship, such as a character pretending to resist but not actually putting up any effort, or a character being embarrassed but whose body language is very honest.

As fellow authors, they naturally had a lot in common.

Yu Wei quickly found the key plot chapters, and through the embellished words, he finally slowly grasped the core of the novel. The warmth and depth of the story surprised him.

So this was his masterpiece. It seemed unassuming, but its core content was so rich that he couldn't put it down.

Qi Luoan, who was discussing the novel's themes with Qi Luoan, was already engrossed in it, occasionally exclaiming in surprise at the plot.

They chatted for twenty minutes before realizing that books are the ladder of human progress, and they should definitely read and talk more in the future...

"Are you...writing tomorrow's plot?"

Qi Luoan's fair face flushed red as she turned to look at Yu Wei's screen, where he was already writing the sequel to the competition.

Filming officially starts tomorrow, and I won't have much time while on set. I need to write a rough draft of the competition article in advance.

"Yes."

Yu Wei leaned back in his chair, still reeling from the writing discussion. He had only just learned that Qi Luoan was more than just bold...

Although the competition has just begun, "Seven Mile Fragrance" has taken a commanding lead in votes. Faced with absolute strength, underhanded tactics are useless.

Because of the accumulation of the first two rounds of the competition, the competition has already attracted a lot of attention. The proportion of fans from the fandom is not large, so they have become a niche group. They can't beat the real talents in terms of vote-buying.

Moreover, it's a work of the caliber of "Seven Mile Fragrance." I wouldn't dare say that everyone will fall in love with it after listening to it, but its appeal is definitely not comparable to a simple cover.

Yu Wei's choice to use this song in the competition was a bit like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, but from the perspective of the competition as a whole, it was indeed necessary to have a big opening to attract a lot of viewers.

The surge in votes for "Seven Mile Fragrance" set a record for his novels. The number of subscriptions for this chapter is astounding, and it feels like the strongest single chapter on the entire platform.

Who do you think will advance?

Qi Luoan straightened his clothes and quickly adjusted his demeanor to steer the conversation back on track. So far, the native Zhou Mulun is in first place, Zhang Lingye is in second, and Qi Yuan is in third.

If the subsequent price increase remains unchanged, Qiyuan will most likely be eliminated.

"Old Zhang, his fans haven't started to exert their influence yet."

There are differences between celebrities. Zhang Lingye's active fans are not many in the Chinese entertainment industry, but they are more than enough to overshadow the down-on-his-luck Qi Yuan.

Moreover, the popularity of his book "Rare Characters" hasn't died down yet. As long as he's a "traditional inheritor of Chinese character culture," even strangers will side with him.

"It's very satisfying."

Qi Luoan couldn't wait to go to the set to see his brother's frustrated expression.

If losing to Yu Wei made him realize his own limitations, then losing to Zhang Lingye made him realize reality, which Qi Yuan definitely couldn't accept.

"It's hard to say."

Yu Wei just felt that Zhang Lingye had a better chance of winning, but it was hard to say who would come in second place, since Zhang Lingye had lost games when he was ahead before.

He is the real "Qi Yi'er," and the bloodline suppression is truly mysterious...

The next morning, Yu Wei got up on time and took the first car to the film set. This was the time difference he had agreed upon with Qi Luoan, mainly to avoid being noticed.

Qi Luoan doesn't participate in filming; he's just a freeloader who comes whenever he wants and doesn't cause any trouble.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the filming location was already a scene of orderly and busy activity.

While the actors were rehearsing, each department was also completing its own preparations. The photography assistant marked the actors' positions, recorded the start and end of the tracks, and the focal length and height of the camera.

Yu Wei also saw Qi Yuan at the scene. He looked mournful and was not at all like his usual energetic self.

He thought about it all night. Losing to a work of the caliber of "Seven Mile Fragrance" is not shameful, but losing to Zhang Lingye is shameful.

But now he really has no choice; no one is voting for him, and there's nothing he can do even if he's anxious.

Bitter!

When Yu Weiyi stepped forward, the atmosphere at the scene immediately became somewhat heavy. He had gone too far this time, and even though everyone knew he was approachable, they couldn't help but feel a little intimidated.

To ensure the organizers wouldn't criticize him for participating, he even went so far as to use a different account, change his singing style and voice, and still manage to dominate the music scene. Who wouldn't be intimidated by that?
Just as the atmosphere on set was getting a little tense, director Qi Yunming finally arrived, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

"What are you doing?"

"The temporary accommodation was too far from the filming location, and I almost missed it."

Even if Qi Yunming is slacking off, he's still slacking off on set. It's inappropriate for the director to be absent during filming. He can ignore things, but he can't not show up.

"Your house seems to be quite close, do you have any rooms available?"

"?"
