Chapter 010 Those Years, The Girls We Chased Together

"Holy crap! This is unbelievable!"

Yang Qing took a big gulp of beer.

"Brother Qing, what should we do?"

Seeing that his ranking was about to be overtaken, Zhou Chen panicked.

"What to do? Just deal with it!"

Yang Qing was furious but had nowhere to vent his anger.

He was also completely baffled, and couldn't understand why "You Are the Apple of My Eye," which had clearly fallen out of the top 30 and was practically doomed, had mysteriously made it into the top 10.

This is not scientific!

Of course, he never doubted the authenticity of the song data.

No company, team, or individual would dare to engage in fraudulent practices in the arts.

Because once discovered, there is only one outcome—a complete ban from the internet!

That's not all. Those involved will also face severe legal sanctions, ranging from hefty fines to life imprisonment!

He secretly had someone investigate, and when he saw the feedback, he was so angry he almost twisted his nose out.

"Has Li Mu Bai lost his mind?"

"What good does he do by doing something that harms others and doesn't benefit himself?"

"They even voluntarily gave up promotional resources during graduation season. Are they out of their minds?"

With a crash, Yang Qing smashed the beer bottle, angrily shouting, "I'm leaving!"

Zhou Chen opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

After Yang Qing left, his eyes flickered, and he reopened [Xiazhou Cloud Music], spent one yuan, and downloaded "Those Years".

A few minutes later, "Youthful Days" had fallen to tenth place in the rankings.

Zhou Chen remained calm, his eyes red as he swept his gaze across the top eight songs: "They all have to die!"

…

Around nine o'clock, Lin Rui slowly woke up.

He glanced at his three roommates who were still lying in bed snoring, then quietly got out of bed, quickly washed up, and left the dormitory.

The campus was noticeably quieter today; normally at this time, there would be a steady stream of students along the way.

Lin Rui attributed this strange phenomenon to the arrival of graduation season, with senior students leaving campus one after another.

"Hu Qian cured me last night, and I didn't sleep well all night."

"Me too, I went to class this morning with panda eyes."

"Luckily I went to bed early last night and escaped a disaster."

"Although this song is very healing, it is really good."

…

A familiar melody played, and Lin Rui, who was sitting in a chair eating breakfast, unexpectedly looked up.

A few girls were sitting not far away, playing the song "Those Years" on their phones.

"Sister Zheng seemed to have mentioned to me last night that her new song would be released today."

Lin Rui belatedly took a sip of soy milk and then took out his phone.

Just as I was about to tap the [Xiazhou Cloud Music] app icon, Zheng Jing called.

"Xiao Rui, I have two pieces of good news for you."

Lin Rui could clearly sense the excitement in Zheng Jing's tone.

"What good news?"

Lin Rui guessed that the good news Zheng Jing mentioned must be related to the performance of her new song.

Sure enough, Zheng Jing laughed and said, "You Are the Apple of My Eye is a hit, a complete hit! It has now surpassed 1.2 million downloads! It's ranked sixth on the charts!"

"Only sixth?"

Lin Rui was somewhat puzzled. In his opinion, "You Are the Apple of My Eye" would have been easily able to take first place, given its quality.

Zheng Jing was clearly confused by Lin Rui's reaction, so much so that even the usually quick-witted Zheng Jing didn't know how to respond.

What kind of thought process is that?

What do you mean by only being sixth?

Sixth place is amazing, okay!

Shouldn't we be raising our hands and celebrating?

Judging from your tone, you're very dissatisfied with the result.
