Chapter 247 Square Dance Anthem

Qiu's mother was live-streaming Ye Xian filming when she heard that someone had come looking for her. She was puzzled because she hadn't been back to Haizhou for several years, so why would someone come looking for her?

When they went outside, Qiu's mother smiled and said, "Oh, it's Old Wu from the dance team."

Sister Wu is in her forties. She took over as the lead dancer of the square dance team after Qiu's mother went abroad. After Qiu's mother returned to China, she originally wanted to rejoin the dance team, but Ye Xian's live broadcasts were all at night, which made her give up the idea of ​​square dancing.

"Hey girl, is your son-in-law busy filming right now?"

Sister Wu has a straightforward personality and gets along well with Qiu's mother. She doesn't beat around the bush and goes straight to the point.

Mrs. Qiu wasn't sure why they were asking about Ye Xian, but when she heard that Ye Xian was her son-in-law, she was immediately delighted: "Of course, he's been filming every day these past few days and hasn't gone anywhere."

Sister Wu laughed and said, "Sister, to tell you the truth, we came here this time to ask your son-in-law for a song!"

"Looking for a song?"

Autumn's mother was stunned. "You're not singers, what song are you asking for?"

Even though Sister Wu is usually very easygoing, she was a little embarrassed at this moment: "Isn't the National Square Dance Competition going to be held soon? You know how strong our dance team is, we can definitely represent Haizhou in the national competition."

Autumn's mother slowly began to understand: "And then?"

"Then we felt that the songs we're using now are all old songs from twenty years ago, without any new ideas. We thought, since your son-in-law is so amazing, he almost beat all the dragon boat teams in the country with his song 'A Man Should Be Self-reliant,' shouldn't our square dance team also have a similar song?"

Sister Wu chuckled, and the dance team members who came with her laughed too: "That's right, your son-in-law is so talented, why don't you write a song for us to compete in? Maybe we can get first place nationwide by leveraging his good fortune!"

Mrs. Qiu was both amused and exasperated. It turned out that these old friends had come to find her for this very reason. This made her both happy and somewhat embarrassed, because she didn't want to cause Ye Xian any trouble.

Ye Xian is already tired enough. Even if Qiu Mama were to increase Ye Xian's workload further, she wouldn't be happy.

Just as she was thinking about how to refuse, Ye Xian finished filming and walked over.

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

When Sister Wu and the others saw the person in question, their eyes lit up in unison: "This is Old Zhang's son? Wow, Old Zhang is handsome, and his son is even more so! He inherited all of his mother's genes!"

"Old Zhang was a key member of our dance troupe back in the day! Speaking of which, I even met Ye Xian when he was a child!"

"If Qiu Qing and Ye Xian hadn't grown up together as childhood sweethearts, I would really want to marry my daughter to Ye Xian!"

"Heh, your daughter? She should take a good look in the mirror. If anyone's going to marry, it'll be my daughter!"

……

A group of middle-aged women chattered away, completely baffling Ye Xian. Qiu's mother pulled him aside and explained the whole story in a few words, which made Ye Xian laugh.

"Street dance songs? They really know how to come up with ideas!"

Autumn's mother said in a low voice, "Don't say anything for a while, I'll persuade them to leave."

Ye Xian shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just a song. These aunties are all your old friends, and my mother used to be in this dance troupe. Although she didn't go often, we still have connections. How will you face them after you turn this down?"

Qiu's mother became anxious: "That won't do either. Today she comes to ask for a song, tomorrow your mother's colleague might come to ask for a song, and the day after tomorrow your father's old friend might come to ask for a song. How can you work? You're so busy right now, there's no need to deal with these relationships. You can just cut them off."

Even though they always called Ye Xian their son-in-law, Qiu's mother felt that she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Ye Xian felt a warmth in his heart.

Qiu's mother truly cherishes herself. She would rather sever ties with old friends than exhaust herself dealing with these interpersonal relationships. However, as a junior, he doesn't want Qiu's mother to lose her social circle.

On the contrary, Ye Xian felt that Qiu's mother had been giving selflessly all along, and now it was time to give back to her. It was just a song; if it could bring Qiu's mother some recognition on social media, all he had to do was spend a little more time copying the song.

Often, in interpersonal relationships, people only take without giving back. This can make one party feel very exhausted.

Qiu's mother's love for herself is the love of an elder for a younger generation—unconditional and selfless.

But I can't be that selfish.

You shouldn't let the person who loves you lose their freedom because of loving you.

Ye Xian smiled and said, "Auntie, it's okay. I write songs very quickly. In fact, I had a new inspiration when I was writing 'A Man Should Be Self-reliant' a while ago. I'll finish writing the song tonight."

I won't sing this song; I'll let someone else sing it, so I won't have to work so hard.

Aunt Qiu looked at Ye Xian with some skepticism, but Ye Xian quickly flashed a wide grin, revealing eight teeth: "Auntie, believe me, I'm not lying to you!"

Seeing Ye Xian's sincere smile, Qiu's mother finally felt relieved and couldn't help but feel happy.

She walked up to Sister Wu and the others and said, "Ye Xian has agreed to write a song for you, but I can't guarantee the quality of the song, so don't have too high expectations. Besides, this is only because of Ye Xian's mother. This is a one-time thing, and there won't be any more."

As you all know, Ye Xian is very busy right now; writing songs and composing music is very energy-consuming.

Sister Wu and the others were overjoyed and quickly thanked Mother Qiu. They then greeted Ye Xian in the distance before happily leaving.

Ye Xian went home with Qiu's mother. During this time, he stayed in a hotel, but he ate all his meals at Qiu's mother's house. As her assistant, Sun Li naturally accompanied him throughout the meal.

Ye Xian sat in the car, lost in thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and called the Sixth Princess.

"What's wrong, Ye Xian?"

The Sixth Princess was in a meeting when she saw Ye Xian's call and answered it casually.

Upon hearing the name Ye Xian, the attendees, who had been feeling drowsy, immediately snapped awake and perked up their ears.

"Your Highness, I'm planning to write a few new songs and need a male-female duo to sing them. Ideally, the male should be able to rap, and the female should have a high-pitched voice. Do you have any artists like that under your management?"

Ye Xian originally wanted to call Bai Jie first, but then he thought that he shouldn't put all his eggs in one basket, so he called the Sixth Princess instead.

With a large roster of artists under its umbrella, Datang Entertainment should be able to easily find suitable candidates.

This was also the first time Ye Xian had experienced the glory of becoming a big star. Now, as long as he opened his mouth, a large number of people would be willing to sing the songs he wrote.

"Another new song? Or several?"

The sixth princess perked up. This guy is a real quick shooter; he's already releasing a new song so soon.

Datang Entertainment mainly focuses on the film and television industry and has many stars under its banner. Recently, many stars have been conveying their desire to ask Ye Xian to write songs for them through their agents. He had been keeping quiet about it, but unexpectedly, Ye Xian came to him himself.

The branch managers present and their top agents sitting behind them immediately perked up, their eyes no longer bothering to hide their gazes as they all turned to the Sixth Princess.

It's like they've written two big characters on their foreheads!

Pick me!
