Chapter 6: The Stand Industry Also Needs Unified Standards



Seeing this, Mu Liuyun wasn't annoyed. This person, apart from playing the drums, was always like a silent gourd, giving everyone who came near him a hard time. Did he think he was some kind of domineering CEO?

Is anyone as domineering as me, Shen Lanxin?

Speechless, the guy below.

Mu Liuyun tried her best to control her expression, walked past Wang Shirong, and headed towards the electronic keyboard behind the scenes.

As a professional stuntman, he had learned piano at his adoptive parents' home and was already at the level of performing on stage after only half a month of adaptation.

Although, they never had the opportunity to perform on stage.

"Xue'er, you've finally arrived!"

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached around her waist and lifted Mu Liuyun up in a hug. The fragrance of chrysanthemums filled her senses as she breathed in.

Mu Liuyun couldn't help but swallow hard, her composure almost crumbling.

Why do these women all like to attack from behind?

While internally complaining, Mu Liuyun turned her face with a smile, only to be met with a face full of punk style.

"Yaoyao, you're bullying me again~"

Hearing Mu Liuyun's squeaky voice, Liu Leyao finally put him back on the ground.

Mu Liuyun looked at Liu Leyao's face, secretly appreciating Liu Leyao's beauty while secretly thinking.

Liu Leyao is very beautiful. She is wearing a fitted leather jacket and ripped jeans. Her adorned face and long, messy hair exude confidence and independence.

Maybe this is the spirit of rock and roll? It's not much different from the non-mainstream trends that were popular back then.

Oh, there is a difference. The non-mainstream ones speak Martian language, while they mostly sing in English.

"Hehe, it's been so long since I've seen you~"

Liu Leyao's playful reply completely shattered her confident and independent demeanor.

Although they had just rehearsed together the day before yesterday, there was no need to spoil the boss's mood. Mu Liuyun just smiled playfully and focused on the electronic keyboard in front of her again.

It wasn't that Mu Liuyun was afraid to continue talking to Liu Leyao, but rather it was for the sake of her stand-in persona.

This was something Mu Liuyun had carefully studied. Liu Leyao and Lin Xuelan were so close they were practically inseparable, but they were both serious about music.

Even during rehearsals, they must concentrate fully on their instruments.

That's why Mu Liuyun fiddled with the electronic keyboard in front of Liu Leyao.

This can be seen from Liu Leyao's attitude towards this performance. Even though there was no need for her to come to the rehearsal, she still came under the scorching sun.

But in Liu Leyao's eyes, it was a little different.

He really loves me.

No matter how convincingly Mu Liuyun's acting is portrayed, Liu Leyao, who grew up wearing the same underwear as Lin Xuelan, can still see the difference between the two.

So what does Mu Liuyun's behavior mean?

It's because he loves himself too much; if he doesn't shift his focus, he'll only have himself in his eyes.

Originally, Liu Leyao didn't think much of it; after all, who wouldn't love such a beautiful woman?

However, Liu Leyao's reluctance to part with Lin Xuelan has faded a lot recently. In addition, she has recently found a new keyboardist, so there is no need to continue their contract. Naturally, he will not respond to this feeling.

Thinking of this, Liu Leyao turned her face away and sneered.

Actors who take money to be stand-ins, how dare they even dream of being with me?

Back on stage, Liu Leyao gripped her guitar tightly.

"Attention everyone, begin rehearsal!"

"And almost lived this way,"

"If you weren't how i taught you."

"we'd both know what i said,"

"with your head full of sorrow."

Liu Leyao plucked the guitar strings hard, and the notes surged out like wild beasts, striking the depths of everyone present.

Wang Shirong also waved his drumsticks, using the drumbeats to set the rhythm.

Combined with Mu Liuyun's piano playing, the entire stage burst forth with exaggerated vitality.

Even though it was just a rehearsal, even without an audience, lights, or anything else, Liu Leyao's innate rock 'n' roll spirit captivated the entire staff.

However, all of this had nothing to do with Mu Liuyun. He was just playing the electronic keyboard behind the scenes of the stage, in a place where no light could be seen.

Because Liu Leyao said so.

"No matter how much you resemble me, I'm just a stand-in. I can't let you taint the stage I dedicated to her."

...

The rehearsal ended quickly. Mu Liuyun put down the electronic keyboard and looked at Liu Leyao on the other side of the screen.

With such looks and musical talent, it would be hard for her not to become famous.

On the stage where no one cheered, Liu Leyao still held the microphone tightly in her hand.

Even without an audience, she still exudes charisma, as if she hasn't stepped out of her music.

Mu Liuyun had no doubt that she would have to say "123, freeze!" for the woman to move.

As for Wang Shirong, who was holding a drumstick, even if the sky were to fall, he would probably stick his forehead into the clouds.

As for the performance just now, even just experiencing it backstage, Mu Liuyun felt a surge of excitement in her chest.

It's too early now; otherwise, just for rehearsals, People's Square would be packed with people.

Mu Liuyun patted her cheeks, a cheap smile reappearing on her face, and walked to the front of the stage.

"Sister Leyao, you're so amazing!"

"Brother Shirong, you're awesome too!"

Upon hearing Mu Liuyun's voice, Wang Shirong nodded stiffly in response.

As if finally snapping out of her daze, Liu Leyao, the wooden figure, put down the microphone and turned her head.

Her beautiful face was devoid of any warmth, and her eyes held a chilling indifference.

Mu Liuyun's breath hitched, and the smile on her face froze.

What happened? Has Liu Leyao been possessed by Shen Lanxin? Why has she also turned into an ice-cold person?

"Mu Liuyun, you don't need to come anymore."

"ah?"

"I've found a new keyboardist, someone better than you."

It turns out it was just the end of the contract. I thought I hadn't performed well and was going to get a major beating.

Mu Liuyun breathed a sigh of relief.

When Mu Liuyun first signed the stunt double contract, she was often rewarded with a big fight for her occasional mistakes in managing her facial expressions.

This is really strange. Could it be that Lin Xuelan has a smile on her face 24 hours a day? Is she some kind of robot?

After a while, Mu Liuyun put on a sweet smile again and spoke in a high-pitched voice.

"Okay, Sister Leyao~"

Just like a monk ringing the bell every day, even if the contract ends, today is still a workday. With her strong work ethic, Mu Liuyun will naturally continue to act the way Liu Leyao needs her.

Seeing the change in Mu Liuyun's expression and her voice, which was no different from usual, Liu Leyao's lips trembled slightly.

He really loves me.

Even if he's just a stand-in, even if I tell him I don't need him, should he continue to stay by my side?

It's a pity that, apart from Xue'er, any keyboardist is just a tool.

After thinking it over, Liu Leyao still felt that even if Mu Liuyun was not good enough for her, what had he done wrong? He just liked her.

Since he's already working as a stuntman, he must be short of money, so why not give him more money as compensation?
