Chapter 7, listen to my song

An outsider watches the excitement, while an insider observes the subtleties. Just from Chen Feng's slight gesture, Zhong Lei keenly sensed his significant transformation

However, that cannot be considered communication; it is merely Zhong Lei's protest born out of unbearable frustration.

I did not explain it clearly yesterday

Looking at the man in front of her, Zhong Lei clenched her jaw a bit tightly

Please stop messing around

Not quite; to be precise, he is very likely intentionally lying in wait

She couldn't help but be captivated.

However, deep within all negative emotions, there seems to be a hidden flame, a flame that appears to burn in his heart, constantly urging him to pursue his own dreams

What exactly do you want to do

Chen Feng does not care when Zhong Lei becomes popular, or how popular she becomes; he only cares about whether he is familiar with her when she becomes popular, and whether she can help him soar after achieving fame

As soon as I came downstairs, he immediately opened the door and positioned himself quite deliberately, perfectly blocking the entrance

In fact, she had not only heard Chen Feng play the guitar once, but previously she had only occasionally heard some sounds, and she had refrained from saying anything.

Why is this person so persistent?

Zhong Lei couldn't help but laugh

Chen Feng's guitar playing lacks a certain spirit, but he has practiced this piece for over 1,000 hours, achieving a level of proficiency comparable to that of a trainee who has practiced for three and a half years

Yes, he is planning to give "Boring" to Zhong Lei to sing

It is somewhat difficult to be a good person

Chen Feng is not concerned about what the future holds, as humanity will be extinct a thousand years from now; can it get any worse

Zhong Lei's eyes widened, her face displaying an expression of utter disbelief.

At this moment, Chen Feng's demeanor inexplicably ignited an unnamed anger within Zhong Lei

This is indeed a chord combination that has never been heard before, could it really be his original work

This is merely an introduction lasting less than twenty seconds, and Chen Feng has not even begun to sing, yet Zhong Lei has indeed discerned so much emotion from it

It is as if the phoenix has suffered severe injuries, lying in the depths of the earth's magma, waiting for its wounds to heal, ready to regroup and soar to the skies once again.

Although the time has been advanced by a few years, the current Zhong Lei may still appear somewhat inexperienced in terms of singing skills, but at least it is sufficiently reliable

It is not that Zhong Lei's music appreciation ability has truly reached extraordinary heights, but simply because this song was written by her herself

There is an even more important reason: the artistic achievement and production quality of "Boring" are actually not very high

No one knows what kind of changes Chen Feng's violently flapping butterfly wings will bring to Zhong Lei and the future

But is that important

He thinks that after pondering for a day, he will achieve enlightenment

Is this meant to prove one's strength

After a moment of contemplation, Zhong Lei let out a hum through her nose while simultaneously thinking to herself

Seeing that the prelude successfully captivated Zhong Lei, Chen Feng felt a slight sense of relief in his heart, secretly thinking that he had taken a significant step closer to success. He played with greater seriousness, more dedication, and increased attention to detail

Yesterday, I rarely wanted to sleep for an extra two hours, but was instead subjected to a cacophony of noise, which reminded me of Chen Feng's "impure motivation" in learning the guitar, ultimately leading me to a point of unbearable frustration

At this moment, the guitar accompaniment of "Boring" that he played was pitch-perfect and impeccable

Zhong Lei is well aware of Chen Feng's level; he is merely a beginner among beginners with no talent whatsoever. His playing the guitar is simply a waste of time

In another dimension, the success of "Boring" as Zhong Lei's debut work is intricately linked to her unique vocal timbre, exceptional singing talent, and subtle emotional capture

Having finished speaking, he did not wait for Zhong Lei to respond, picked up the guitar, and swiftly ran his fingertips across the strings

Could it be that he was pretending to be a fool to deceive others? What was his intention?

Somewhat immature, yet sincere and heartfelt

As expected, with the melody playing, Zhong Lei no longer heard the torment of yesterday.

Chen Feng silently watched her, his emotions somewhat complicated, wanting to turn his head and leave

But Chen Feng is not here to play someone else's piece; instead, he is here to showcase his original music

Certainly, this will undoubtedly change Zhong Lei's fate completely, allowing her to debut and gain fame much earlier, and her life experiences will become entirely different from another timeline, perhaps resulting in her having fewer insights into life.

A person overnight transformed from a novice in guitar playing to an expert, which completely contradicts her common sense and lies beyond the scope of her imagination

Move aside

Chen Feng ultimately decided to give it a try

I know you haven't started work yet, listening to a song only takes a few minutes and won't delay you in any way. As for whether to file a complaint or not, you can certainly make that decision after you finish listening.

After all, Chen Feng is the apartment manager and should know some of her information, including that she is involved in music

Therefore, Chen Feng believes that selling "Boring" to others may not achieve the desired results, and the best choice is to hand it over to the original performer.

Zhong Lei's initially somewhat agitated emotions gradually calmed down under Chen Feng's skillful performance

As long as she sings, even if it may not become a hit, the theoretical minimum effect that can ultimately be achieved is still guaranteed

In the past month, since the awkward conversation that day, the two have only exchanged a few brief words yesterday

Forget it, he has indeed put in a lot of hard work. Considering that he also has a great fondness for music, let's listen to what kind of song this really is.

With just this one action, the words of reproach that Zhong Lei was about to utter suddenly caught in her throat

"Boring" was originally a song by Zhong Lei. I borrowed two of her songs; if I don't give her even one, Chen Feng's conscience will ultimately be somewhat uneasy.

Are you still trying to create original work? Have you lost your mind

Zhong Lei is truly a candidate who can become the female version of Beethoven in the future, being both serious and devout towards music

She, being perceptive, had actually noticed that Chen Feng was trying to approach her actively, and even felt that Chen Feng had ulterior motives in practicing the guitar

She is making a concerted effort to control her temper, fearing that she might impulsively rush forward and engage in a physical altercation with this person

She does not believe that within just one day, Chen Feng could achieve remarkable progress

Whether a person can play the guitar and whether they have put in hard work in practice can be discerned by those knowledgeable in the field. Essentially, one only needs to take a glance at their initial hand position and observe their finger techniques for pressing and plucking the strings to uncover clues.

He was still holding that worn-out guitar in his arms, and his expression seemed to be a mix of anticipation and excitement, with a hint of nervousness.

Indeed, Chen Feng has come to prove himself

What was played yesterday was still unbearable to look at, yet how is it that after just one night, this person seems to have transformed completely?

It sounds somewhat melancholic, yet also carries a hint of the affectation of youth feigning discontent, reflecting a dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs, coupled with a sense of powerlessness to effect change, leading to an emotion of merely going with the flow

Yet new doubts began to arise in her heart

Because she did not want to deal with this person any longer, she left half an hour early today, but unexpectedly ran into him anyway

Zhong Lei's breathing gradually slowed down, and her emotions involuntarily became intertwined with the situation, unexpectedly developing a sense of empathy towards the performer Chen Feng, whom she originally found very unpleasant.

Zhong Lei never thought that Chen Feng truly could not do it yesterday, but today he truly can

Once she adopted a serious attitude, she quickly discerned the charm of the piece played by Chen Feng.

Given the level of proficiency displayed by Chen Feng in that moment, it is impossible for him to play the kind of enchanting melody that resonated yesterday

Chen Feng smiled awkwardly, but did not step aside as requested. Instead, he said: "I know I am a novice, but that is not important. In fact, I have written a song and would like to ask you to listen to it and provide some feedback."

Hehe... Haha!" Zhong Lei laughed, both amused by his audacity and irritated by his shamelessness.

This piece of music struck her heart like a massive boulder, resonating and echoing within her

Moreover, helping her to become popular sooner is indeed assisting her

It is now exactly 7 o'clock in the evening

The emotional impact of this song is significantly diminished with only guitar accompaniment, but it is still suitable for live performances in a small theater setting

Although her suggestion yesterday was hard to hear, it actually stemmed from goodwill in a certain sense

After a brief cold laugh, Zhong Lei's tone suddenly became three points colder, "What kind of joke are you making! Writing a song? You? Do you really think I won't report you, right?"
