The School Beauty Became My Live-in Maid to Pay Off Her Debts-Chapter 199: Underground Romance with a Super Idol?
Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Underground Romance with a Super Idol?
Lin Shuang didn’t have the time to critique this silly idol’s choice of words, instead pondering whether to keep their business a secret from her manager sister.
Although they hadn’t done anything, it was a very pure friendship.
"If sister finds out, she might forbid me from hanging out with you, Lin Shuang!"
Considering such a possibility, Yu Zhishui’s mood deflated, her spirit lost!
"No texting Lin Shuang, no phone calls, and definitely no seeing each other... I don’t want that!"
She hugged her little head with both hands and vigorously shook it until it was thoroughly shaken.
Not okay at all!
Lin Shuang was even affected by her near-tearful tone, "That’s... indeed something we need to keep under wraps."
Why does it feel like I’m engaging in a clandestine love affair with this silly idol...
Yu Zhishui’s tone immediately lifted, "So, Lin Shuang, you go contact my sister and submit this song to her~ I had her reach out to you for a songwriting appointment last time."
Her tone changed so quickly, like a child who’s been spanked sees candy and instantly stops crying, smiling while indulging.
"Huh? That’s actually a good idea..."
Lin Shuang thought this silly idol suddenly got smart!
Shining with wisdom now!
"That’s right~ Then I’ll ask to meet with sister to discuss producing the song in-depth, and we can see each other~"
Lin Shuang remarked, "Everything’s under control... Is this what they call the great Captain Yu Zhishui?"
Yu Zhishui high-fived the reflection in the mirror, "To the greater Captain Lin Shuang, proceed with the plan! I’m off to continue the meeting."
"Copy that, copy that..."
After hanging up, Lin Shuang pulled out her manager sister’s business card.
The delicate card read "Xia Na Music, Jiang Lan".
...
"What took you so long? Did you get a stomach ache?"
When Yu Zhishui returned to the meeting room, Jiang Lan asked with concern.
Hearing Jiang Lan’s question, Yu Zhishui paused, then immediately clutched her stomach.
"Ow~ it does hurt a bit, maybe I should visit the restroom again..."
Another chance to call Lin Shuang!
But she didn’t look the slightest bit like someone with food poisoning, practically beaming with joy and hopping around.
Jiang Lan grabbed her, "Alright, stop fooling around, let’s see how this demo sounds."
As the manager who had looked after this little idol for so long, Jiang Lan figured Yu Zhishui had just gone out to slack off again, so she didn’t press further.
Little did Jiang Lan know, Yu Zhishui had been plotting with another boy to pull the wool over her manager sister’s eyes~
Sitting down beside her, Yu Zhishui put on the headphones to listen to the demo submitted by a well-known domestic songwriter.
After all, he was a famous figure in the industry, adept at various melodic skills and transitions.
But, of course... he couldn’t compare to the talented Captain Lin Shuang!
The spaceship must be piloted by Lin Shuang! No one else will do!
Jiang Lan observed Yu Zhishui’s smile, "What do you think? Is the song okay?"
"Not really..."
"Then why are you so happy?"
"I was thinking of something joyful~"
"What joyful thing?"
"I won’t tell you~"
Yu Zhishui playfully swung her little head, "Right, sister, did the author of ’Love Confession Balloon’ contact you?"
She gave her acting skills full marks!
A perfect assist for Lin Shuang~
"Nope, not yet."
Jiang Lan patted her shoulder, "But we’ve only ever heard his one song ’Confession Balloon,’ so it’s hard to determine his actual skill level."
Although that ’Confession Balloon’ is really quite impressive.
Yu Zhishui really wanted to shout out loud, Lin Shuang is super awesome! Way better than these other songwriters!
She took a deep breath to calm herself, pouted her lips with a distressed look, "Ah, that’s too bad. I’m not quite satisfied with the songs I’ve received so far~"
Jiang Lan was just about to offer some words of comfort to Yu Zhishui when her phone vibrated with a notification alert.
"Hm? Speaking of him, and he just sent a message?"
Could this be a coincidence?
Jiang Lan didn’t think too much about it and opened the message to show Yu Zhishui.
She said jokingly, "The author of your beloved ’Confession Balloon’, whom you’ve been dreaming about, really intends to collaborate with you!"
A casual joke, but it accidentally hit the nail on the head.
Yu Zhishui kept a straight face, trying hard to suppress her upturned lips.
"Did he send a demo? Let everyone listen to it."
Let you all hear how amazing my beloved Lin Shuang is!
Super amazing!
"Yeah, he sent it to my email, and the song title is pretty good, ’That Year in a Rush.’"
Jiang Lan clapped her hands, "Let’s all listen to this demo I’ve just received."
She also had high hopes for the handsome guy who could write ’Confession Balloon.’
But ’That Year in a Rush’ surpassed her expectations by a long shot.
Not only were the lyrics and melody flawless, but what was even more valuable was that the song matched Yu Zhishui’s vocal range perfectly.
It’s as if it was tailor-made for her.
After listening to the demo, the conference room fell into silence for a few seconds.
Yu Zhishui led the applause, followed by several agents and planners, who erupted into clapping.
"What a great song! After listening to so many songs today, this one is truly like heavenly music to my ears!"
"The melodic line and the arrangement are both outstanding! Which great composer submitted this piece?"
"And these lyrics... tsk tsk tsk, these lyrics, I’m at a loss for words, they’re definitely tear-jerkers!"
The more everyone praised the song, the prouder Yu Zhishui puffed out her chest.
My Captain Lin Shuang is amazing, right!
She took her phone and, smiling radiantly, sent a message to Lin Shuang.
"Everyone is praising you, Lin Shuang! Lin Shuang is super amazing!"
Sitting beside her, Jiang Lan noticed Yu Zhishui’s little movement.
Hm? This young lady, smiling foolishly at her phone... Has it been happening a bit too frequently these days...
Although Jiang Lan was now solely looking after Yu Zhishui, she had managed many other young idols before.
This situation...
It was very familiar to her!
Someone smiling foolishly at their phone every day is usually in love!
Jiang Lan’s eyes went wide as if she could already see tomorrow’s trending headlines.
Shocking! Super idol Yu Zhishui’s secret romance revealed, her boyfriend turns out to be...
Turns out to be... Who was it again?
Jiang Lan thought for a moment but absolutely couldn’t figure out who Yu Zhishui might be dating!
She shook her head, relaxing a little.
Yu Zhishui is different; she’s so innocent, she definitely wouldn’t be dating.
Most importantly, she hadn’t been around any other boys.
Jiang Lan patted her shoulder, "Shuishui? What are you grinning about?"
"I’m just happy hearing such a good song~"
Yu Zhishui put away her phone with a smile, "Sis, hurry and contact this author~ I want to lock him in!"
