Chapter 218 Shot His Own Foot



Xiao Weiguo held the notebook and glanced at Liu Ye, whose eyes were slightly red.

"Honey, what's wrong? Who upset you?"

Liu Ye shook her head and sat down next to him.

"Take a look, you'll see."

Xiao Weiguo didn't say anything more, and lowered his head to open the red notebook in his hand.

Like Liu Ye, he also frowned deeply after watching the first few songs.

He really didn't understand why Liu Ye would show him something at such a middle school level, and say it so solemnly.

Liu Ye didn't urge him, but simply held his arm quietly, her face showing a sad expression.

Xiao Weiguo turned the pages one by one, and finally, he saw the last page, where Shangguan Qixue left her last words.

Even Xiao Weiguo, who had watched it carefully from beginning to end, was deeply shaken.

From these few lines, he saw the deep affection a little girl had for her parents, the kind of love that, even in the face of death, still made her think of her loved ones.

He didn't know how old the little girl was, but her great sentiments alone surpassed those of most people in the world.

Finally, he slowly closed the notebook. He then opened the second page and looked at the bright red name on it.

Shangguan Qixue.

"Willow Leaf, where did this come from?"

After reading the last page with Xiao Weiguo, Liu Ye couldn't help but shed tears again.

"After I got off work at noon, I ran into a rural couple downstairs. They were Shangguan Qixue's parents, and they were the ones who gave this to me."

Liu Ye wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a small handkerchief and replied.

"How old is this Shangguan Qixue?"

Xiao Weiguo waved the notebook in his hand and continued to ask.

Liu Ye rummaged through her bag and pulled out the black-and-white photo that Shangguan Qixue had left behind before her death, then presented it to Xiao Guo.

"She's only fourteen years old and still in junior high school."

Xiao Weiguo's heart trembled again.

He could guess that the girl was not very old, but he did not expect that she would die at the age of only fourteen.

At fourteen, she endured the torment of illness, leaving all hope for life to her family. Xiao Weiguo could hardly imagine what kind of spirit supported such a child in the face of the horror of death.

Xiao Weiguo reached out and hugged his wife, and the two remained silent for a long time without saying a word.

Now he understood why Liu Ye was so heartbroken.

No one could remain unmoved by such a profound emotion.

After a long silence, he asked softly.

"Then, what will you do?"

Liu Ye's body trembled slightly, and she slowly sat up straight.

She held Xiao Weiguo's large hand tightly in her own, her eyes filled with expectation as she looked at her husband.

“Weiguo, I want to help this family, for the sake of this poor yet respectable little girl. I have a feeling that even though she is gone, she is still watching over her parents from heaven. She must want me to help her keep her parents’ hope alive and live on forever.”

Xiao Weiguo nodded. He understood Liu Ye's kindness; now that she had encountered her, she would definitely not ignore her. Perhaps it was this little girl named Shangguan Qixue who moved Heaven, allowing her parents to meet Liu Ye.

"But, Liu Ye, you also know that... there's no way Shangguan Qixue's song can be released. Even if you want to help her, Teacher Zhou can't sing such a song. It would ruin her career, do you understand?"

Zhou Ruolan's previous album featured ten singles carefully selected by Xiao Weiguo. These were all songs that had been market-tested and had a certain influence in her previous life; they could all be considered classics.

That's why she was able to quickly create a huge wave in the music industry and attract countless fans. In most people's minds, Zhou Ruolan is definitely a rising star.

If you were to give her a piece of this caliber to sing right now, you can imagine what kind of fate awaited Zhou Ruolan.

At that time, people will find that her talent has reached its limit and will think that she can no longer sing at the same level as before.

In this way, Zhou Ruolan's entire future would be ruined.

It's fine to help this family, but we can't do it at the expense of Zhou Ruolan's future and destiny.

Regarding this, Liu Ye seemed to have already come up with a solution.

She grabbed Xiao Weiguo urgently and said.

"Weiguo, you can write songs, right? You've written so many great songs. Just revise them for her based on what's written here. Anyway, her parents can't read, so they won't know what Shangguan Qixue wrote. Just say it was their daughter who wrote it."

Even if Liu Ye was naive, she could now understand that it was just something Xiao Weiguo made up to comfort her, based on an old man's story in the mountains. She believed that Xiao Weiguo had real talent, and that there was absolutely no one else in the world who could surpass her husband in songwriting and lyric writing.

After all, no one would have imagined that Xiao Weiguo was reborn from the future.

As for who that song was actually written for, now that they are a real couple, Liu Ye won't be jealous over such trivial matters anymore.

She blurted out her thoughts, believing that Xiao Weiguo definitely had the ability to revise Shangguan Siqixue's songs to be as good as her previous ones.

Faced with such a request, Xiao Weiguo was both amused and exasperated.

He can't write any lyrics, let alone write any. He didn't even finish high school in his two lifetimes combined. With his limited education, he'd be lucky to even understand lyrics.
