They surrounded me right after the breakup.

"Gradually forget, and you won't be able to catch up with tomorrow."

As long as you hold on tightly to your longing.

Tomorrow, your smiling face will be gone.

...

The melody was melodious and gentle, and with Mao Buyi's mellow voice, Xia Yutong was completely mesmerized.

It was as if I could hear Jiang Han's innermost thoughts in the song.

"Stubbornly persisting against time."

Xia Yutong knew that Jiang Han had pursued Shen Qingning for many years, and this lyric was a perfect reflection of his true self.

Is he trying to forget that ten-year relationship?

"This...is this a song you wrote?"

Xia Yutong asked, stunned.

She bit her lip, trying to control her agitated emotions.

Jiang Han smiled frankly: "I wrote it; it's just a little insight."

Hearing the affirmative answer, Xia Yutong silently lowered her head.

It was indeed a genuine expression of his feelings; only someone who has personally experienced it could write such a stubborn song.

And finally, letting go.

At this time, only Mao Buyi and Tingting were in the recording studio; the other two had gone to take turns resting.

"Brother Jiang Han, I recorded a version myself, just as you suggested," Mao Buyi said shyly.

"You two go to sleep and stop messing around!" he commanded without room for argument.

"Just one last minor tweak is needed..."

"Go quickly!"

"oh oh."

Jiang Han sent the last young people who were holding their posts back to sleep.

They are the future hope of Xingyue Media, so we can't let them get overworked.

When Xia Yutong first stepped into the recording studio, she gently stroked the novel equipment on the table and saw many professional tools whose names she did not know.

Have you sung it yourself?

"I recorded an a cappella version first, and then had them do the arrangement."

Xia Yutong hesitated for a few seconds before finally speaking, "Can I hear you sing?"

"Okay, I'll look for the audio file."

Jiang Han sat down at the computer and found the Demo with the number 8 in the desktop folder.

The following text, written in parentheses, reads "Jiang Han Song Singing Version".

"Found it, but my singing isn't as professional as Mao Mao's."

Jiang Han clicked play while making a few modest remarks.

Same lyrics, same melody.

Xia Yutong got goosebumps listening to this; in terms of singing skills, she was indeed no match for the previous one.

From an emotional perspective, she believes Jiang Han's version is more moving.

"Can I record it and let my girlfriends hear it?" Xia Yutong asked tentatively.

"That's not appropriate! The song hasn't been released yet; it would be troublesome if someone heard it and made a version of it first."

Please!

Xia Yutong clasped her hands together, ran up to Jiang Han, swayed her body from side to side, and raised her head, acting coquettishly.

My goodness! I can't stand this kind of contrast!

Despite having the appearance of a career woman and sporting a neat, short haircut, she suddenly started acting cute.

Jiang Han shook his head helplessly: "You can only record a short segment; it's not allowed to be shared outside."

Xia Yutong nodded vigorously: "President Jiang, you're so kind. I'll only let the other girls hear it for a little while."

So she opened the recording software and replayed Jiang Han's version of "Forget Time" again.

"Huh? There are two more songs?"

Xia Yutong looked at the file name on the desktop and asked in confusion.

"There are three songs in total, all of which are theme songs created for film and television dramas."

"I want to hear it!"

"Don't tell anyone, understand?"

Xia Yutong held up three fingers and said confidently, "Don't worry, President Jiang! If there's any leak, you can do whatever you want with me!"

If Jiang Han remembers correctly, this is the second time Xia Yutong has made a promise.

He followed the exposed half of her calf, his gaze returning to Jinlian, who was only 35 inches tall.

Do I like jade feet?

Jiang Han shook his head: "I'm going outside for a smoke. You stay here by yourself for a while."

Xia Yutong didn't turn around, still focused on appreciating the music, and simply hummed in response.

After the three songs were played in sequence, as a first-time listener, she was already looking forward to the TV series.

What kind of story could possibly be worthy of such a moving melody?

Xia Yutong took out her phone and opened the "Four People Together" group chat, whose members were Shen Qingning, Lin Yaoyao, and Qiu Siyao.

They all happen to be women who have recently become close to Jiang Han.

Xia Yutong tapped the screen: "Guess what I saw at Xingyue Media? Jiang Han composed three film and television songs."

Qiu Siyao: "It sounds amazing, doesn't it?"

Xia Yutong: "Huh? Girlfriends are definitely treated differently. Siyao's already heard about it!"

Qiu Siyao: "Mhm!"

Shen Qingning: "Um... could I listen to it too?"

Before Xia Yutong sent the message in the group, she had already planned to provoke Shen Qingning, and she quickly took the bait.

"Oh dear, the song hasn't been officially released yet. Jiang Han said it can't be leaked to the public."

Qiu Siyao: "That's right, that's right. The entertainment industry values ​​copyright. It would be bad if bad people stole our content."

Shen Qingning watched the two of them talking back and forth, while she was the only one kept in the dark, and she was extremely anxious.

"Yutong, please, let me hear it! I promise I'll never tell anyone, I swear if it's leaked, I'll go through menopause on the spot!"

Lin Yaoyao saw the message in the group but didn't reply immediately. She only responded and liked it after Shen Qingning made a solemn oath.

She was filled with surprise at the fact that Jiang Hanhui could compose songs.

Music production is mental work, and intelligence is precisely what Lin Yaoyao is most concerned about regarding Jiang Han.

An excellent baby needs a smart father.

Lin Yaoyao: "Let's hear it. If anyone leaks it in the group, it's definitely Shen Qingning, and I'll be the first to punish her."

Shen Qingning, unusually, ignored her sarcastic remarks: "Siyao agrees too, right?"

Qiu Siyao replied with a nodding dog emoji.

With the atmosphere already at this point, it wouldn't be appropriate for Xia Yutong to keep people in suspense any longer.

She selected "Forget Time" sung by Jiang Han on her phone and clicked send.

The other three girls in front of the screen quickly finished loading the audio file.

They began to listen to Jiang Han's songs with different feelings.

Qiu Siyao was the most relaxed. As his girlfriend who had already settled down, her husband's talent was his source of pride.

Lin Yaoyao's mind was filled with thoughts of having her own child.

Only Shen Qingning was completely captivated by the lyrics.

"The promise of forever has been broken, and the expectation of things remaining unchanged has all changed."

What pale and powerless words!

Jiang Han's 10-year-long relationship was like a kite that had been scattered, broken by his own hands.

"Only when my eyes are closed can I see those once warm and vibrant scenes."

Every birthday, every Valentine's Day, every city—all are cherished memories of Jianghan accompanying her.

"When tears fall, it's the end."

When Shen Qingning heard the last line of the lyrics, her emotions collapsed completely.

A sore, aching sensation stuck in my throat, and I couldn't help but sob uncontrollably.

Tears welled up and then slid down her pale cheeks.

She forgot to wipe it off, and kept repeating the word "full stop".

A period is a period, written at the end of a text to indicate the end of a passage.

For Shen Qingning, this meant that Jiang Han had chosen to let go after struggling with the breakup.

As he said in front of me:

Past feelings fade with time; forget them!

Stubborn persistence yielded no results.

Our relationship has come to an end.
