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

"I didn't mean anything by it. I just called to see how you were doing..."

Meng Han's voice sounded slightly awkward on the phone, but her concern was genuine: "Is there anything bothering you?"

Yu Wei was stumped by the question. He was neither sick nor in trouble, so what could be bothering him? Teacher Meng's words were truly strange.

He didn't understand, but Meng Han was always worried because of the new song "unravel".

After listening to the song through the lyrics, Meng Han completely panicked...

Especially the line "Who is inside my body?" Others might just think Yu Weizhong is silly, but in his eyes, that's the crux of the matter.

The illness finally flared up!
Meng Han had long suspected that Yu Wei had mental health issues, and thought that things had improved over time, until he heard this song.

The novel *Unravel* is a depiction of pain, distortion, and struggle, which precisely correspond to the symptoms of mental illness.

Therefore, he specifically contacted experts in this field. The doctor said that the repeated phrase "It's broken, it's broken, this world" in the lyrics directly reflects a significant impairment in the patient's reality testing ability.

Add to that the confusion about identity and the delusion of being controlled in this song, and this isn't just teenage angst, it's a terminal illness!
Meng Han couldn't imagine what kind of mood Yu Wei was in when he wrote the song; that desperate roar made him feel uneasy.

This child has suffered so much...

"I'm perfectly fine, nothing's wrong."

Although Yu Wei was a little confused, he understood that Uncle Meng meant no harm. Since entering the industry, Uncle Meng had been the best senior to him.

He was having a great time watching the "washing seaweed" meme-filled fan creations, how could he not like it?

"Oh, oh, that's fine then."

Although he said that, Meng Han's expression remained solemn. The more Yu Wei acted like this, the more worried he became.

For a creator, you shouldn't look at what they say, but at what their work expresses. What is revealed unintentionally is the true, genuine feeling.

You can't believe a single word Yu Wei says right now. Don't be fooled by his cheerful demeanor; he's probably suffering terribly inside...

After hanging up the phone, Meng Han was unable to calm down for a long time. The thought of his good junior ending up like this made him feel that God was unfair.

Emotionally, Yu Wei is his good junior and younger brother; logically, Yu Wei is the future of the Chinese music scene. How could he remain calm?
The saddest thing is that Brother Yu's painstaking work was treated as a joke and a source of amusement by netizens. How sad and heartbroken he must be...

We can't delay any longer; we must help them seek medical attention immediately!

Meng Han is an impatient person. After realizing the seriousness of the problem, he decisively contacted his psychologist friend.

The two discussed it for several days. As a national-level artist, Yu Wei believed that this matter was of great importance and that he had to receive treatment in secret.

Just as they decided to visit Yu Wei under the guise of visiting a friend, an unexpected event occurred: at this critical juncture, Yu Wei released another song.

Now is certainly not the time to listen to music, but as I said before, nothing reflects the creator's mental state better than their work.

They weren't listening to music, they were diagnosing!
"Old Han, this depends on you..."

As the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise. A psychologist understands psychology, but he doesn't understand art. Meng Han has to figure out Yu Wei's current situation.

Upon hearing this, Meng Han nodded solemnly. He had been busy worrying about his illness these past few days and hadn't paid attention to Yu Wei's book, nor did he know what style the new song was.

The new song is called "The Funeral of Roses," and it's a new song released by Yu Wei using the character Xu Gao from her novel.

The two exchanged a glance and then clicked on the piece that was related to Yu Wei's "illness".

The prelude begins with a low melody woven from piano and strings, much like the mood of a rainy night, before the character's slightly hoarse voice emerges.

"One hundred weeks away from you"
I'm back here.
"Searching for evidence of our love." Meng Han was taken aback upon hearing this. The lyrics and melody... a love song?
At this critical juncture, Yu Wei actually arranged a love song, which is truly baffling.

The lyrics are ordinary, but the arrangement of this song is very interesting. With a funeral theme, the melody does indeed achieve a tragic and oppressive feel.

This also indirectly confirms Meng Han's guess. Yu Wei's condition has indeed worsened. Releasing two songs with a lot of negative emotions is clearly a subconscious cry for help!

He dared not be careless, closing his eyes and letting the lyrics penetrate his eardrums, striking the softest part of his heart.

Nobody wants to mention it.
The Rose's Past

Today's topic is...

I call it a memory.

Upon hearing this, Meng Han subconsciously frowned. No, the roses seemed to symbolize love, but they also seemed to have a deeper meaning.

The word "memories," in particular, evoked many associations in him...

Could it be that the "you" who left in the song is Yu Wei himself in the past?
Based on Meng Han's understanding of Yu Wei's situation, the reason he has mental problems is because of his dark past.

The song is themed around memories, and the title clearly refers to a funeral, making the intention of mourning self-evident and hard not to think about it.

"The Funeral of Roses"

Bury the memories of you
I feel numbness in both hands and can't control it.
I can't hold you back anymore.

Meng Han immediately realized that although the song was titled "Funeral of Roses" and seemed to be about lost love on the surface, its core was about loss itself.

That kind of irreversible separation, that kind of despair of wanting to hold on tightly but being powerless to do so.

Yu Wei uses the image of "rose" to combine lost beauty with pain, creating a unique tension.

Yu Wei's romantic relationships have gone remarkably smoothly; what he has lost, perhaps, is the "person inside his body," his past self...

The most beautiful time for a rose is when it is about to bloom, not when it is in full bloom. Just like life, the most beautiful time may not be the peak, but the upward process.

Although both songs express pain and sorrow, this one brought Meng Han a completely different experience. Facing the theme of "funeral," the song was both mournful and romantic.

In this song, Yu Wei did not try to simplify the sadness, but instead intertwined sadness with beauty, just as a rose has both beautiful flowers and sharp thorns.

Upon hearing this, Meng Han inexplicably let out a long breath. He no longer felt just sadness, but rather a strange sense of relief.

Through this song, Yu Wei commemorates her past self; it is an emotional farewell ceremony, not a sign of being terminally ill.

On the contrary, in this song, he seemed to see Yu Wei emerging from his cocoon and being reborn. His past, like the fragrance of roses, had permeated every inch of the air in his life.

The funeral of roses is not only a farewell, but also a commemoration; not only an end, but also a continuation in another form.

The sadness remains, but it no longer overwhelms everything; the memories are still there, but they are no longer just a source of pain. He has not escaped the sadness, but has learned how to coexist with it.

Without a doubt, this song is Yu Wei's love letter to her past self!

Instead of escaping pain or painting a false picture of optimism for loss, we acknowledge the pain while imbuing loss with beauty.

The lingering notes of the song slowly dissipated in the air, and a smile appeared on Meng Han's lips.

Faced with the psychologist's questioning gaze, he simply shook his head: "No need, Yu Wei doesn't need these things anymore."

Yu Wei has now achieved a clear understanding of the Dao and faces no further obstacles. (End of Chapter)
