Chapter 109 The Whitest Lie
After Qiao Yichen finished singing, he excitedly asked Meng Anran, "Sister, how did I sing?"
Meng Anran smiled and praised him generously, "Very impressive. With more professional training, he will definitely be a top star when he debuts."
She doesn't like to make too many promises before she has even started to make any decisions.
Since she can praise him so confidently, it means that even if Qiao Yichen has not taken a step yet, she is confident that she can make him a top singer in the future.
This is a high praise.
"Is this true? Is there a hope that my dream will come true?" Qiao Yichen walked over to sit next to Meng Anran. It was the first time he heard someone say that he could be a singer.
Give me more praise, I love to hear it!
"It's guaranteed!" Liu Zhi couldn't help but chime in, solemnly introducing, "The person in front of you is Qi Ran, the composer of the popular pop song 'Liehuo'!"
Everyone looked at her in shock. Meng Anran pursed her lips awkwardly and pulled the corners of her lips. Great, I was exposed in public again.
How could Qiao Yichen, a vocalist, not have heard "Fire"? He deeply loves the song's eloquent yet powerful, passionate energy, which seems to make one's blood boil like a raging fire.
The original singer sang it very well, but he liked the song itself more.
Who would have thought that it was written by Meng Anran!
Meng Anran had thought about doing business in the entertainment industry earlier, but she had never found the right person to act as a matchmaker and help her understand the specific situation of the artists in this regard. So she simply wrote a few songs herself and threw them into the entertainment industry to see how much of a splash she could make.
As a result, the song "Liehuo" immediately caused a huge sensation. Although he didn't get to know several popular singers because of it, he did get to know the producer of a well-known domestic record company, which meant he had one foot in the entertainment industry.
This further strengthened her idea of entering the entertainment industry. Rather than being an actor, she planned to start with singing, which was why she asked Liu Zhile for a demo of his own lyrics and music.
To be honest, Liu Zhile is quite talented in songwriting, but his voice doesn't have much distinctiveness and his appearance is not outstanding. He may be successful as a music creator, but it is difficult for him to become an outstanding singer.
On the contrary, Qiao Yichen has a unique voice, good looks, and a strong personality. He has the potential to become a big star, and investing in him will definitely yield high returns.
However, Qiao Yichen is not an art student and cannot apply to a music college. Meng Anran suggested that he apply for a major in financial management and then participate in a music talent show to make his debut.
After all, he is the only son in the family and will inherit the family business sooner or later. This choice can not only realize his dream but also take into account the family situation. His parents will definitely be more accepting of him becoming a singer and give him a few more years to pursue his dream.
Qiao Yichen couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Great! Really great! Sister Anran, you're amazing!"
Meng Anran chuckled and continued, "So, for now, you should focus on preparing for the college entrance exam. Liu Zhi is the heir to Jiayan Entertainment. After the college entrance exam, you can ask her to look out for suitable singing talent shows for you to sign up for. There's no need to rush to achieve success overnight. Just show your abilities and get the agency's attention."
Liu Zhi patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, Brother Yichen, I will definitely choose a reliable competition for you!"
Qiao Yichen immediately took out his phone and sent a friend verification to Liu Zhi, "Add me as a friend first, I won't let you get away!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Since someone started singing, the next thing they did was to pick up the microphone and go crazy, making a lot of noise and laughing.
Meng Anran did not forget to chat on WeChat with Qin Mu as agreed in the evening. She sat in the corner and looked at her phone. There was a message from Qin Mu half an hour ago.
Qin Mu: Baby, where are you? Liu Zhi says someone's stealing my roommate, then says all clear. Are you playing Sherlock Holmes?
After looking at the others who were all having fun, Meng Anran simply got up and went to the sky garden outside to call Qin Mu back.
The other end picked up the phone quickly.
"Baby, what are you doing? It took you so long to call me back."
The boy's voice, which had passed the voice change period, was slightly low and magnetic. It went straight into her eardrum through the mobile phone receiver, and seemed particularly attractive in the quiet night.
Her heartbeat suddenly quickened and her cheeks turned pink. Meng Anran realized that even though they had been together for sixteen years and their behavior could be naturally close, the feeling of being truly in love was still completely different.
We can hold hands, kiss, even hug each other as we have done before, or even just hear his voice, and I will feel a special sense of happiness.
After not hearing a sound from the other end for a long time, Qin Mu was puzzled, "Baby, why aren't you talking?"
Meng Anran regained consciousness and smiled. "It's okay. Tomorrow is my brother's birthday, and we're throwing him an early birthday party in Yandu. We plan to have fun all night tonight."
"From the sound of it, the young lady is having a lot of fun?" Qin Mu's voice was mixed with pampering and tenderness.
His An Xiaoran has had few entertainment activities since she was a child. If she has fun tonight, it means that the lack of love in her character has been truly filled with family affection.
"Yeah." Meng Anran responded in agreement, and added, "I've also found a talented singer."
"The eldest lady is really thinking about making money all the time." Qin Mu chuckled helplessly. He was so lucky that he could even find someone to celebrate his brother's birthday.
Meng Anran sat in the hanging chair and swayed slowly. She asked, "What's the matter with you calling me tonight?"
"It's not urgent. Relax and have fun. I'll tell you tomorrow."
Otherwise she will be distracted and not have fun.
However, if it was bad news, Meng Anran would be worried. "Is it good or bad? If it's bad, tell me now."
"Good news." Qin Mu answered quickly, with joy in his tone.
Meng Anran thought about it carefully and asked hesitantly, "Auntie is awake?"
Qin Mu raised his eyebrows, "Baby, how come you are so smart? You can even guess this."
Meng Anran smiled and said, "You are accompanying your aunt in the hospital? How is she doing?"
"She woke up for more than an hour, drank some porridge and went back to sleep. Mr. Zhao said my mom's condition is much better than when my dad first woke up, and she might recover faster."
"It's good that she's regained consciousness. Since Auntie is back to sleep, I'll go visit her tomorrow."
Tanya finally woke up after lying down for more than a year. Meng Anran was not only happy for Qin Mu, but she also felt relieved.
After all, Tanya was the only person who had made her feel the warmth of family in the past seventeen years.
When he was five years old, his ribs were broken by Lu Yi, and Tanya came to the hospital to visit him several times.
Feeling the warmth of loving kindness for the first time, she was so moved that she burst into tears and asked Tanya sobbingly: "Auntie, do my parents and my older brothers dislike me? I'm in so much pain...but they don't come to see me."
Tanya's eyes were red at the time, and she hugged her tenderly, her tone so gentle: "How could that be? Little Anran is so obedient and cute, and everyone likes you very much. Your parents are just too busy with work, they still love you very much in their hearts."
Later, Meng Anran realized that Tanya was lying to her.
But it was the whitest lie she had ever heard in her life.
It soothed the fragile heart of a five-year-old child and prevented her from living as a demon in a malicious family.
