Chapter 78 "Medals"
Chapter 78 "Medals"
After she finished speaking, she stared straight at Su Yu, her eyes filled with an unwavering desire and a hint of provocation.
"I didn't expect you to be so energetic after filming all day."
Su Yu leaned back on the sofa and blinked: "Youth is resilient."
"Yeah?"
Ma Sichun got up from him and straddled Su Yu's legs.
The previous warm concern vanished, replaced by a mischievous smile.
"I didn't want to bother you, but since you're in such good spirits, I don't need to worry. I'll test how resilient you are."
Su Yu leaned back on the sofa without moving, slightly raising his chin to look at Ma Sichun above him, and suddenly reached out and pressed his hand on her waist.
Ma Sichun was startled by his sudden attack, but quickly laughed again. Instead of retreating, she leaned forward slightly, placing her hands on the back of the sofa on either side of Su Yu's head, thus casting him in shadow from above, like a wildcat that had found its prey in the night.
Her eyes were bright, and her lips were slightly parted:
"Come here~ into your sister's arms~"
The steam from the goji berry tea rose gently from the coffee table, and two shadows intertwined in the warm yellow light.
Her knitted cardigan had somehow slipped to the floor, and her loose-fitting wide-leg pants were carelessly kicked aside by their owner as she took a few steps back.
Silent all night.
......
Su Yu spent the first few days in this busy state. Fortunately, Su Yu's return greatly improved the efficiency of the entire crew, and they were able to complete the task ahead of schedule. The next few days were not so busy, and sometimes Su Yu could even take some time to watch the other crew members slowly work on their scenes.
During this break, Su Yu did something that no one in the "Left Ear" crew expected.
The incident occurred that afternoon when he had just finished filming a scene with Ou Hao and was sitting under a parasol waiting for his next call.
Chen Duling went to get water, Ma Sichun was flipping through a script under the shade of a tree across the street, and Ou Hao was being lectured by Su Youpeng.
Su Yu was leaning back in a folding chair, scrolling through his phone aimlessly, when he suddenly saw a post from Lu Han on her WeChat Moments.
It's a photo of a gym, with a caption of just four words: "Practicing hard!"
Here is Lin Gengxin's comment: Keep it up, junior! I believe in you!
Looking at this post on WeChat Moments, Su Yu suddenly remembered something: he had promised to write a song for Lu Han, but he still hadn't started writing it.
He's been too busy filming these past few days, so he's temporarily put this matter out of his mind.
But after thinking about it, Su Yu realized he had already promised him, and Tangyuan was also very concerned about this matter, so he felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer.
He locked his phone and pulled a blank notebook out of his backpack.
Su Yu unscrewed the pen cap, closed his eyes, and carefully recalled the songs from his past life.
If this were to be his first single after returning to China, then "Medal" would undoubtedly be the most suitable song for him.
This song was also one of Lu Han's representative works in his previous life. The melody is uplifting and carries the unique stubbornness and indomitable spirit of a young man. It is both sad and inspiring.
This kind of temperament almost perfectly matches Lu Han's current situation. From a trainee in a foreign country to the top, almost all the unspoken words in between can be expressed through this song.
He laid the notebook on his lap and, in the shade cast by the parasol, began to write the first line.
"The story begins in that first dream, where the stars twinkled only for me..."
Who said only greatness deserves to be celebrated? Even riding the waves doesn't guarantee success.
Life can only move forward; those who hold firm to their beliefs are heroes...
After a while, he finally managed to write it out, though he occasionally got stuck. Su Yu wanted to think about what rhyme to use for a certain line, or whether to change the chord progression to a smoother one, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up. He decided to leave these things to more professional people.
Once the relevant keywords appear, perhaps I can do everything myself.
When Chen Duling returned with the water, she immediately saw Su Yu with his head down, intently writing something in his notebook. The wind blew his bangs across his forehead, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his lips were moving silently. He seemed to be doing something incoherently.
She tiptoed over and placed a bottle of iced mineral water on the small table next to him without making a sound.
Only after Su Yu finished writing the last sentence and clicked the pen cap back on did she cautiously ask, "Huh, what were you writing?"
Su Yu closed his laptop, picked up the bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and smiled at her: "You'll see later."
Chen Duling pouted but didn't press the matter. Su Yu had too many secrets; she was already used to it.
From the first time they met until now, this person has never done anything according to the rules. Every time he shows off a new skill, she can only exclaim in amazement. Therefore, she just takes it as an ordinary thing and does not continue to ask questions.
After finishing work that evening, Su Yu returned to the hotel, rewrote what he had written in his notebook, and recorded a short demo on his phone.
There was no accompaniment, no arrangement, only a guitar borrowed from the props team.
After recording it, he listened to it once and thought it was okay. At least the melody was complete and the emotional direction of the lyrics was correct.
Then he sent the audio file and lyrics document to Tangyuan, and after that he went to take a shower.
When he came out of the bathroom drying his hair, his phone screen was already flooded with unread messages from Tangyuan.
The first message was sent shortly after Su Yu sent it: Su Yu.
Article 2: You answer the phone.
Article 3: Call me on video right now.
Article 4: I'm not discussing this with you.
Article 5: Did you write this song?
Articles six through twelfth are all exclamation marks, varying in length and without any pattern, clearly typed while in a state of emotional outburst.
Su Yu leaned against the headboard and leisurely dialed the video call.
Tangyuan answered immediately.
On the screen, Tangyuan was wearing pajamas, her hair casually clipped behind her head, and frameless glasses perched on her nose.
But her expression was anything but casual; her eyes were wide open, her mouth slightly agape, and she was standing very close to the camera, as if she wanted to pull Su Yu out from behind the screen.
"Su Yu".
Her voice was very low, as if she were talking in secret, afraid of being discovered.
"Did you write the song you just sent me?"
"Yes, I wrote it."
"All of it? Lyrics and music, you wrote them all?"
"right."
Tangyuan took a deep breath.
She pushed her glasses up to her head, rubbed her temples with her thumb and forefinger, then pushed them down again and stared at Su Yu on the screen. This was a little habit she had when she was organizing her thoughts. Su Yu looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
"Su Yu," Tang Yuan finally spoke, her words rapid yet clear, clearly indicating that she had already mentally processed the entire evaluation process.
"Stop laughing! You need to listen carefully to what I'm about to say!"
