Chapter 23: Instant Fame

Yuran inherently treated a person as a friend with great generosity, offering her sincere care without any reservations.

Annan repeatedly confirmed that she was neither unhappy nor forcing herself, and then nodded slowly, "Then, thank you very much, Ranran! If there's ever a time when I need to scale a mountain of swords or descend into a sea of flames, I will not hesitate…"

Yuran slightly curved her lips, "Then you'd better remember that!"

Annan nodded emphatically, "My word is my bond. Once I've said something, not even four horses could chase it back!"

After the meal, Annan followed Yuran straight to her apartment, which was small and cozy, just like Yuran herself. The whole place had no redundant furniture, extremely minimalist.

It could be said to be meticulously tidy. Annan couldn't help but tease, "Do you have a cleaning obsession?"

Yuran looked at her and casually surveyed the surroundings, "Should the place where I live resemble a pigsty to make you feel at home?"

Annan, "…" Ouch, that hurt, buddy.

Yuran poured her a glass of water and explained, "We only have boiled water at home, so please make do. I'll go get the musical score for you now!"

Without waiting for Annan to say more, Yuran got up and went to the bedroom. Moments later, she came out with a musical score in her hand, a piece she had finished by herself—whether it was the lyrics, the tune, or the arrangement, she had done it all alone.

She handed it to Annan, "Take it. Just write M.YU as the name of the songwriter. Although the score is given to you, I hope that I remain the creator.

After all, it's my work. I give it away so that he has the chance to sing it, you know?"

Annan wasn't stupid; she understood Yuran's meaning instantly. As she took it, she nodded, "Of course, it's your work. It's only fair for you to make requests, and it's proper for us to comply! Ranran, I'm truly grateful to you."

"I gave it to you because of your face. It is indeed right to thank me, so next time, treat me to another meal!"

Annan had never seen Yuran joking around before. When she did so playfully, she was actually quite adorable. Annan burst into laughter, "Ranran, you look so beautiful when you smile!"

Yuran: "…"

Annan didn't stay long at Yuran's apartment. She was actually missing her own boyfriend quite a lot and was eager to get the musical score into his hands; it would probably cheer him up a bit.

With that thought, the moment she left Yuran's place, she headed straight for Yinran Entertainment.

…

One month later, after the military training ended, Yuran returned to the Bo Family. During dinner, she happened to see the news and learned that a popular love song had rapidly dominated the top ten of various music charts within a week of its release, with even a potential to climb higher.

From well-known media personalities to ordinary netizens, it seemed everyone was astonished by this dark horse song that unexpectedly surged to the top of the charts. Many people began to dig into the source of the song.

The song "Voicing Love" was a new insert song from the weekly drama "Half a Lifetime of Folly" that aired a week ago. Whenever the male and female leads went through deep, torturous love scenes, the melody would play, wringing the hearts of the audience with its emotional depth.

Many exclaimed that such an insert song was almost cheating.

With a forceful momentum, "Voicing Love" quickly topped the charts after a week, reviving the career of a male singer who was almost past his prime.

This song, whether from its composition, lyrics, or arrangement, penetrated deeply into people's nerves, vividly conveying the heartache, helplessness, jealousy, bewilderment, and nostalgia of love-tormented hearts. Many netizens even imagined a host of stories behind the composition.
