Chapter 245 – Sing Me a Song!
“You Exist In My Song”, who did Yang Yi write it for? Actually, Mo Fei had some clue in her heart, but now Yang Yi made her a little uneasy. She had to hear it directly from his own mouth.
Looking at Mo Fei’s pouting rosy lips, Yang Yi’s heart trembled slightly. He smiled gently and said, “Do I even need to say it? You are the only woman I have ever loved in this life and past lives.”
“In this life and past lives” It might sound like sweet words to woo a woman, like vows of eternal love, but Yang Yi wasn’t exaggerating. It was the truth.
“Then who was ‘Across the Ocean to See You’ written for?” Mo Fei pursed her lips and asked.
“What do you think?” Yang Yi found Mo Fei’s current appearance very adorable, like a child waiting to be praised, looking at him expectantly, waiting for those words. Unable to contain his affection, he gently pinched her upturned nose. “Of course, it’s you. Who else could it be?”
“I knew it! You knew I was in Jiangcheng, that’s why you came to find me! I thought we had meet by chance!” Mo Fei giggled. In her view, many of Yang Yi’s songs were written for her, such as “The Initial Dream”, which closely reflected her situation.
Although it was a wonderful misunderstanding, Yang Yi did not expose it when he saw Mo Fei’s sweet appearance.
However, Mo Fei seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes suddenly became a bit lost. She said in a low voice, “The song ‘Long Time No See’ that you wrote for Chen Yijie, was it because you came to Jiangcheng but I didn’t treat you well, so you felt very depressed?”
She could even make such a connection?
“Although it’s true that you weren’t nice to me back then, my temper wasn’t very good either…” Mo Fei said self-reproachfully.
Yang Yi didn’t want Mo Fei to feel bad. He explained, “Actually, it’s not exactly the same as the situation described in the song. When I wrote that song, I had indeed arrived in Jiangcheng, but I was still looking for a job and hadn’t met you yet. I was facing some problems in life and felt lonely after so many years. Then, while passing by a coffee shop, I thought of you and suddenly had the inspiration for this song.”
“Why do I feel like you’re comforting me?” Mo Fei’s feeling at this moment was very accurate.
But Mo Fei still chose to believe in Yang Yi, and the softness in his heart was touched by Yang Yi’s mention of “loneliness”. She reached out to grab Yang Yi’s big hand and said, “No, from now on, we, along with Xixi, will be together. None of us will be lonely!”
Yang Yi looked at Mo Fei’s sincere expression, and a warm current echoed in his heart. He also nodded solemnly.
However, Mo Fei let go of Yang Yi’s hand again and puffed up like a goldfish, saying, “No, I can’t forgive you so quickly. I’m very angry about your dishonesty, hiding your identity and secretly enjoying my embarrassment. I strongly condemn your behavior!”
“Uh, what can I do for you to forgive me?” Yang Yi scratched his head.
Mo Fei pondered carefully and said, “First of all, you must promise that you’ll never deceive me again, no matter what!”
Yang Yi quickly raised three fingers and repeated the oath he had previously made.
“Then think about it, is there anything else you’re hiding from me?” Mo Fei asked.
Yang Yi thought for a moment and something came to mind, “Um… there is, but it’s not the right time to tell you now.”
“No, tell me!” Mo Fei said angrily, “You’re still hiding things from me!”
Yang Yi hesitated for a moment but still said frankly, “Last time, I advised you to wait until your contract ends and then start your own studio. Well, last month, Mo Xiaojuan approached me to discuss your situation, and I also felt that it’s unnecessary for you to stay at Tianmei. The first reason is that I don’t want you to keep flying all over the country like before, constantly busy with commercial performances.”
“The second reason is that your boss is not an ordinary woman. She is very cunning and has ulterior motives. I don’t feel at ease with you renewing the contract with her. The last reason, which I’ve mentioned before, is that I want you to be closer to home. So, I agree with Mo Xiaojuan’s proposal for you to establish your own studio and go solo…”
Before Yang Yi could finish, Mo Fei had a sudden realization and said, “Xiaojuan has already started, hasn’t she? No wonder she frequently takes time off and even moved to Tingshan.”
“Yes, I provided her with an investment and asked her to find someone to build the framework for the studio first. Once your contract period is over, it can officially operate,” Yang Yi smiled slightly and said, “Of course, if you want to leave early, wait a few months, and I’ll save up 40 million yuan as a penalty fee and buy you out directly!”
“No!” Mo Fei exclaimed. She paused for a moment and said hesitantly, “What you’re telling me now is too sudden. I haven’t even thought about leaving Tianmei…”
She did have such thoughts, but it was difficult to make up her mind.
“It’s okay, just focus on completing this album with peace of mind first. As long as you don’t make a silly decision to renew your contract with Tianmei, we can discuss how to handle things later,” Yang Yi said.
“You’re the silly one!” Mo Fei scolded him with a slight pout.
“Don’t worry, no matter what kind of problem you encounter, there’s always me around. You don’t need to be afraid!” Yang Yi patted his chest and said.
Yes, it was the second time Yang Yi had said such words in front of Mo Fei!
Previously, Mo Fei thought that Yang Yi was just trying to make her happy. But now that she knew Yang Yi was Mu Li’ang, she realized that Yang Yi’s words were sincere. He truly had the ability to help her.
“Thank you, Yang Yi!” Mo Fei was moved, and her eyes sparkled with emotion.1there were tears in the corner of her eyes.
Compared to a few months ago, she was now incredibly happy! It should be known that initially she thought that pursuing her musical dreams and receiving Yang Yi’s support were all extravagant demands!
“Okay, okay!” Yang Yi reached out to wipe away the tears at the corner of Mo Fei’s eyes and said, “Do you need to be so moved? I haven’t done anything.”
“No, you have silently supported me from behind for so long. Only now do I realize that I used to think you were mean and only knew how to bully me!” Mo Fei rubbed her eyes and smiled sweetly.
“Can you forgive me then?” Yang Yi asked softly as he gently traced his fingertip across the palm of Mo Fei’s hand.
Mo Fei shrank back in a ticklish manner and giggled mischievously, saying, “Not yet. I have one last request!”
“Tell me, even if it’s through a mountain of swords or a sea of flames, I promise not to blink!” Yang Yi waved his hand and declared confidently.
“I want you to sing for me, but I won’t make it difficult for you. If you can’t sing ‘You Exist in My Song’ or ‘Across the Ocean to See You,’ then just sing ‘Long Time No See’ for me! I really like this song. Oh, here’s the guitar. You’ll need it to accompany your singing!” Mo Fei playfully jumped off the sofa, took the guitar hanging on the wall, and gleefully placed it in Yang Yi’s arms.
Singing? That was naturally not a problem. Yang Yi was now much more confident.
He had secretly practiced his voice for a period of time. Although it hadn’t reached his desired level yet, he could actually sing “You Exist in My Song” with his inner strength!
However, on this rare occasion to show off in front of Mo Fei, how could Yang Yi not use all his skills? What does singing “Long Time No See” count for?
“‘Long Time No See’ doesn’t quite suit the atmosphere right now. Let me sing a new song for you, one that I wrote not too long ago.” Yang Yi gently plucked the guitar strings but paused and said softly.
“A new song?” Mo Fei became even more interested. Her voice slightly rose as she said, “Then I want to hear you sing the new song!”
