The car suddenly fell silent. Qi Silin pursed his lips, looking somewhat puzzled. He turned to look at her unchanging expression and asked blankly.
"Did you know they were filming you?"
The girl nodded. "I know."
She also knew who had called these reporters, who had first posted the photos online, and who had sparked the controversy, but she didn't want to resolve the matter so easily.
That guy's arrogance stems solely from the people in the background and that photo. If the photo and the background are resolved, what's left for him?
The reason they dare not show their faces now is simply because they have some power but cannot compare to hers.
But she doesn't have the time to deal with an insignificant person. When the time is right, she will deliver a fatal blow to that person, making it impossible for them to ever get back up.
"Cut the weeds out completely?"
The man seemed to have thought of something. He was initially a little unsure, but when he saw her nod in agreement, he understood.
So he worried for nothing. But it's good this way; she'll be more prepared for anything in the future.
The Shen family members were heartbroken by the online criticism of Qi Jiu, and they have been showing her even more care than before.
I call her several times a day, and even video chat several times a day. I'm practically glued to her every day.
The Shen family originally wanted to intervene, but the girl stopped them. In her eyes, it was not a big deal and there was no need to trouble the Shen family's public relations.
With only a short time left before the start of the semester, Qi Jiu has been going to Qingmai Entertainment much more frequently lately, as she wants to get everything sorted out before the semester begins.
The controversy only subsided after Wan Zhou released her first song after her comeback, "Pity".
Wan Zhou gained a lot of fans under the management of Qingmai Entertainment, and many people are looking forward to seeing what kind of talent this newly signed artist of Chiang Mai Entertainment will have.
The media also turned their attention to him.
The release of "Pity" was like a bomb, creating a spark in the entertainment industry. It swept through every corner of the industry like a tornado, and within a day, Wan Zhou's reputation was instantly established.
The melody of "Pity" is so captivating that it not only appeals to the general public but also to some discerning listeners.
At the same time, the covers of major music apps all featured promotional photos of Wan Zhou and sample images of her album "Lian".
Fans surged, records became wildly popular, and Wan Zhou became a sensation.
However, some people have noticed something unusual. The lyrics, band, and record company of "Pity" are all clearly stated, but why is the composition blank?
Could it be that... this person is unable to show their face?
"Wanzhou's 'Pity' is so beautiful. As expected, Qingmai only accepts the best."
"This song is nice, but who is the composer? Why isn't anything written about it? Don't I, a respected listener, even have the right to know this?"
"Although it sounds great, why does this style of music seem so familiar to me?"
"I agree with the comment above. I've listened to a lot of songs, big and small, from both domestic and international artists, and this one actually sounds familiar to me. Could it be a composer who doesn't want to be in the public eye? But I've never seen anything like this before..."
In the conference room of Qingmai Entertainment, Wanzhou was no longer as afraid of Qijiu as she had been when they first met. Now, she clung to her like a leech.
He was baring his big teeth, which were already cold to the touch.
tooth:"……"
"Miss Qi, oh no, teacher, thank you for your music. I am who I am today because of you. Let me toast you! Thank you so much!"
As she spoke, Wanzhou snatched the champagne from Baimang's hand, poured herself a full glass, and then turned to pour Qijiu a small glass, her every action showing great thoughtfulness.
The girl smiled upon seeing this.
"I appreciate your kind gesture, just one bite will do."
Besides, she didn't write this piece for nothing; she received a share of the profits. There's no such thing as a free lunch, so this matter can be considered mutually beneficial.
Since this wasn't a restaurant, Feng Nai could only bring some champagne to celebrate. Bai Mang looked at the girl tilting her head back to sip her wine, hesitated for a moment, and finally seemed to have made up her mind before speaking.
"I forgot to ask you before, should I include your stage name in the composer section? After all, you've already retired from the industry, so I don't have the right to make that decision for you. Therefore, I'll leave the composer section for 'Pity' blank for now. You can change it if you want."
Bai Mang knew she didn't like being high-profile, but this was also her hard work, and it wouldn't be right to leave it unsigned.
The girl pursed her lips. "Let's label it."
Bai Mang was taken aback. "Is the eldest daughter of the Shen family still the same person?"
Feng Nai listened to the topic of their conversation, his brows furrowing slightly.
"The identity of the eldest daughter of the Shen family is not convincing at all in terms of composing. This will only give those who are already jealous of Wanzhou something to criticize him for. It would be better to use his previous identity."
He paused, then added, "Are you afraid of being exposed?"
Qi Jiu shook her head indifferently, "Isn't this pretty awesome? What's so scary about it?"
And even if they didn't ask, she planned to reveal this identity anyway. For her, whether her true identity was exposed or not was irrelevant; what she wanted was the satisfaction of being humiliated.
Bai Mang nodded, indicating that he understood.
He then began to give instructions.
In the entire conference room, apart from the three of them who understood, everyone else looked completely bewildered. Even Wan Zhou scratched her head, somewhat confused.
No, what does this mean? What's their identity? What's this about revealing their true identity? What's all this about?
But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't come up with a solution.
Next, all the major music apps froze for a moment at the same time, and then returned to normal.
At first, netizens didn't notice the changes, but as time went on, some people did notice something was wrong.
Once the fuse was lit, the whole thing was ignited. Comments started appearing on Weibo.
"Has the information about 'Pity' changed? Am I blind? The composer...Q? Really?"
"Holy crap, is this for real? Q is back? Wasn't it blank before? Is this a mistake or is it real?"
"Wait, is the Q we're thinking of the same person? Could it really be her who's back?"
"Help! I thought I'd never get to hear Q's new work again in my lifetime! I was devastated when she retired from the industry!"
"My favorite composer composed music for my favorite artist. Who can understand how I feel right now?!"
"..."
Internationally renowned composer Q has made a comeback, causing the entire Weibo platform to crash.
"Pity" has once again become a trending topic.
“Our Wanzhou has really made something of herself; she can even get Q to come now.”
"Zhouzhou really makes Mommy proud!"
"..."
