Chapter 576: I Just Like Making Friends with People Like You

Li Jinqiu looked at her son with a mix of amusent and exasperation.

This child, he's thoughtful.

When she opened the trunk, Li Jinqiu was startled again.

It was packed full of various gift boxes, including nutritional supplents for the elderly, cigarettes, alcohol, and tea for his father. Besides these, there were over a dozen shopping bags, so many that they could barely fit.

Li Jinqiu stared at her son with wide eyes.

Chen Fan explained with a smile, "It's rare that I co back, I can't return empty-handed."

"Have Old Feng help you bring these back. A while ago when I was in the hospital, Second Aunt and Third Uncle ca all the way to visit and even gave money to show their concern. We can't not reciprocate."

"Mom, after you take these back, discuss with dad and see what's appropriate to give to each family."

Li Jinqiu looked at her son with pride.

Her son had truly grown up.

"Ah, but you must have spent quite a bit of money."

Chen Fan smiled, "Mom, what are you saying? What do I earn money for if not to make you and dad more comfortable?"

Hearing this, Li Jinqiu's eyes reddened, tears almost spilling out.

"You're all alone out there, take care of yourself, pay attention to your health. Don't always skip breakfast. And don't always eat that fast food."

"Also... don't always use the air conditioner at ho, it's not good for your health. In a while when the weather gets cooler, rember to wear long sleeves..."

Chen Fan was both amused and exasperated, "Mom, I'm not a child anymore."

Li Jinqiu glared at him, "Even if you're 60 years old, in my eyes, you'll always be a child."

"Alright, I'm leaving. When you have ti, rember to co back and see your dad. Even though he doesn't say it, he's happy when you co back."

"Since you started earning money, your dad has been quite proud in the village, always going out to play cards and chess with others..."

Chen Fan nodded with a smile, "Alright, in a few days when your daughter-in-law has a break, I'll bring her back with !"

"Su Ruochu, that child, studying alone so far away, I don't know if she's eating well..."

Seeing his mother start to ramble again, Chen Fan was both amused and helpless, quickly pushing her towards the car.

"Alright, alright, don't worry, I'll make sure to remind her to eat well."

"Old Feng, drive slowly. You can stay in Luocheng for a day, just co back tomorrow."

Chen Fan waved goodbye, watching the car leave before leaning on his crutch and hailing a taxi, heading straight for the rehearsal room.

After several days of practice, the band mbers' coordination had beco increasingly seamless.

"I think with our current level, we're completely ready to perform on stage," Chen Fan ntioned during a break.

Yan Qing nodded in agreent.

Chen Fan rembered sothing, "By the way, I've never asked, what stage exactly are you talking about for this performance?"

Yan Qing laughed.

"You've released so many hit songs, yet you don't pay any attention to entertainnt news."

"Next month, the F.I.R. Band has a concert in the provincial capital. We can perform as guest singers then."

Chen Fan's eyes widened, "Guest singers at a concert? How did you manage to get such connections?"

As soon as he said it, Chen Fan smiled.

He had almost forgotten about Yan Qing's background.

With his connections, getting a spot as a guest singer didn't seem like a difficult task.

Yan Qing explained with a smile, "The company handling the promotion for their concert in the provincial capital is run by a friend of mine."

Chen Fan felt a bit emotional.

The F.I.R. Band. In 2004, which is this year, this band released 《Our Love》, and with just one song, the band rose to fa, becoming incredibly popular.

Unfortunately, they peaked at their debut, and the F.I.R. Band never surpassed this peak. Later, they even went through a band mber change controversy, causing their popularity to decline gradually until they almost disappeared.

But now it's 2004, and the F.I.R. Band is at the height of their popularity. Being able to perform as guest singers at their concert is indeed a great opportunity.

As the two were chatting, Nalan Wan'er suddenly approached.

Seeing the girl's sowhat uncomfortable deanor, Chen Fan took the initiative to speak.

"What's wrong?"

Nalan Wan'er spoke hesitantly, "There's sothing..."

"Um... our band is about to perform on stage, but the two songs haven't been registered for copyright yet..."

Chen Fan was surprised, "You haven't registered them yet?"

Nalan Wan'er said softly, "I wanted to ask you, do you plan to register these two songs under your own na or under our band's na?"

Chen Fan: "Weren't these songs written for you guys?"

Then he glanced at Yan Qing, "Didn't you want the band to gain fa and exposure? If so, of course, we should register them under the band's na."

Yan Qing also looked a bit awkward, "Are you sure about this? These are both good songs. If we register them under the band's na, we'll be taking all the credit."

Chen Fan laughed, "I said from the beginning that I was helping you write them."

"Besides, I'm already taking a big risk by performing on stage. There's no need for to seek more attention."

Seeing Chen Fan speak so frankly, Nalan Wan'er felt even more embarrassed.

"The two songs can be listed as our band's works, but the lyrics and composition still need to be attributed to individuals..."

Chen Fan casually said, "That's simple. Didn't you want exposure? Put your na as the author for both songs."

Nalan Wan'er's eyes widened, "You... you really don't want the authorship credit?"

Chen Fan waved his hand, "I prefer being a quiet handso boy."

Nalan Wan'er's eyes flickered, finding Chen Fan more and more likable.

Yan Qing smiled and said, "We can't just take your work for free. How about this, I'll buy them from you, and we'll consider them the band's achievents."

Chen Fan frowned, "Is that necessary?"

But Yan Qing looked very serious.

"Even close brothers keep clear accounts."

He then took out a card from his pocket.

"There's over 5 million yuan on this card, it's the prize money from the last car race."

"I should have given it to you earlier, but then you were hospitalized."

"We won entirely thanks to your performance last ti, so I'm giving you all this money. Consider it the fee for purchasing your song rights."

Chen Fan was both amused and helpless.

"Are you serious?"

Yan Qing nodded very seriously.

"I can do without the money, but I can't lose face."

"If it wasn't for you last ti, I would have lost a lot of face. So giving you this money is the right thing to do."

Seeing Chen Fan unsure of how to handle the situation, Nalan Wan'er directly snatched the bank card and stuffed it into Chen Fan's arms.

"If he's giving it to you, just take it. Do you think he looks like soone who's short on money?"

Chen Fan smiled wryly, "Well, then I won't be polite."

Yan Qing grinned, "You'd better not be polite with . I'm still waiting for your leg to heal so you can race with again."

Looking at the card in his hand, Chen Fan felt quite emotional.

In the eyes of people with deep backgrounds like Yan Qing and Nalan Wan'er, 5 million yuan probably wasn't much different from 500 yuan.

Performing with them once on stage, and he got 5 million yuan for free.

This deal wasn't bad at all.

Chen Fan couldn't help but joke, "I just like making friends with people like you."

Yan Qing laughed heartily.

Nalan Wan'er whispered, "Chen Fan, we're friends too, right? In the future, if I ask you to write songs for , you can't refuse, okay?"

Chen Fan smiled and waved the card in his hand.

"If you're as generous as him in the future, I'll write as many songs as you want."

Nalan Wan'er rolled her eyes, "Hmph! I see you've got your eyes on the money."

They all laughed, their relationship clearly improving.

Just as he was about to put away the bank card, his phone rang.

Chen Fan took it out and saw it was Ma Xiaoshuai calling.

He looked up and nodded to Yan Qing.

"If there's nothing else, I'll head back. See you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye to everyone and leaving the rehearsal room, Chen Fan answered the call.

"Brother Jie found soone to beat up Li Jiao's foreign boyfriend."

Ma Xiaoshuai's first sentence left Chen Fan frozen in place.
