Leng Zimo smiled indulgently, "I believe that, after it’s released in the future, it’s bound to be a very influential work."
This sentence, however, was far from flattery.
That "Chance Encounter", he had seen it and indeed it was a rare masterpiece. Although he hadn’t heard the other two, Leng Zimo believed in Luo Xiaoqian’s talent.
"Speaking of etings, I just rembered sothing interesting." Luo Xiaoqian chuckled, "The song departnt in the company received a package; soone wrote a song specifically for to sing, and it’s really great."
"Do you like it?" Leng Zimo asked with a smile.
"Of course, I like it. The lyrics feel like they’re about us. Even though it’s a very happy love song, listening to it makes want to cry..." Luo Xiaoqian suddenly sat up straight and looked at Leng Zimo with a smile, "I’ve guessed it!"
She guessed it so quickly?!
"Guessed what?" Leng Zimo asked on purpose.
"I guess this person must be in love too, otherwise, how could they write such lyrics?!"
Leng Zimo shook his head helplessly, thinking the girl might have guessed the truth but ended up a bit disappointed. Still, he couldn’t help but laugh at her amusing guess, "I bet they are!"
"Zimo!" Luo Xiaoqian fiddled with his shirt buttons, "If... I an if... one day when you’re inspired, could you write a song?"
She had never asked anything of him, but this wish was so strong. Back when she idolized him, she had imagined that one day he would write a song for her.
Knowing she could release her own album made this desire grow even stronger.
"Sure." Leng Zimo agreed with a smile.
Luo Xiaoqian, seeing him agree, began to regret it.
He was so busy, how could she ask him to write songs, "I was just saying. Don’t take it too seriously, we can talk about it when you have ti... There’s no rush..."
"I understand," said Leng Zimo as he stood up with her in his arms, "Co on, let’s go to sleep."

Lakefront villa.
Xu Pei, with headphones on, was listening to the music coming from the computer, but she couldn’t really imrse herself in her work.
She was always serious about her work. After coming back, although it was late, she decided to open her laptop and go through the sixteen songs again, then list out her analysis and plans for the album.
Though it was Luo Xiaoqian’s album, it was also Emperor View’s album, and it was her first album as a producer, so of course, she wanted it to be perfect.
However, ideals are full, reality is skeletal.
She wanted to keep work and personal feelings separate, but it seed especially hard tonight.
"The Buddha said: From love cos sorrow, from love cos fear; if one is free from love, there is no sorrow and no fear... Letting go seems so effortless, but I can’t let go; to be willing to part seems so simple, yet I can’t bear to... Fortunately, you and I are ’Destined’..."
In her headphones, Luo Xiaoqian’s "Destined" repeated over and over.
"Why should I let go? Why should I be willing to part?!" Xu Pei suddenly raised her hand, pushing the notebook on the desk off onto the floor, "Zimo said he loved , he even said he would marry , he asked to wait for him for ten years, ten whole years, we had a full ten years, Luo Xiaoqian, who are you, what right do you have to take my Zimo away?!"
...
...
Did Xu Pei and Leng Zimo really have ten years?
The answer will be revealed later. That’s it for tonight, see you in the dayti.
