Chapter 233: Chapter 145 She Kissed Me by Force! (Long Chapter, Please Subscribe)_2

"As a top-notch singer or musician, you must achieve one thing, and that is your songs can be sung in a bar, also in Vienna’s Golden Hall, in the fields, or even on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala!"

"Since the emergence of the Chinese music scene, there has actually been only one true queen who transcends all age groups, male and female, young and old, and that is Deng Lijun. Although she might sound a bit old-fashioned, her style provides a great reference."

"Her ’Do Not Pick the Wildflowers by the Roadside’ is a bit earthen rustic village tune, her ’Sweetie’ dominates both radio and KTV charts, while her ’Alone on the West Tower’ is a favorite among the literati, and her ’Goodbye! My Love’ fits well for performances at various gala events."

"The most amazing thing about Deng Lijun is that her songs are never confined to one style, because no matter the style, once sung by her, they carry a unique flavor that belongs to Deng Lijun."

"What is a queen? This is the queen, able to master any style of song, and express herself uniquely in any genre."

Zhang Jingdong saw some confusion in Xiao Fei’s eyes and teased her, "What, do you think Deng Lijun sounds too far off, feel like you’re just a minor singer in a talent show with no accomplishments, and believe you can never compare to her in your lifetime?"

Xiao Fei nodded honestly, "Hmm, a little... but I will definitely try my best."

At this, Zhang Jingdong said emphatically, "Always remember one thing, when you aim for the moon, even if you fail, you’ll land among the stars."

Xiao Fei, enlightened by his words, quickly responded, "Don’t worry, I know what to do now."

Seeing that he had completely convinced her, Zhang Jingdong said, "Seeing how quickly you grasp things, I’ll give you another song."

Xiao Fei’s face lit up with surprise, "So you’ve prepared two songs!"

"That’s a must, just in case!"

Zhang Jingdong said as he pressed the play button again.

Soon, the male voice from before came out of the recorder:

The blue stone slabs hold whose dreams

A sweep of autumn rain leaves flowers scattered

The traveler hurries on his way

Visiting families through the four seasons

Like last night when the sky suddenly revealed the contours of distant mountains

Remembering long ago, we forgot to speak

After a night of twists and turns, another rough patch

Unable to walk through, unable to see through

...

This time, from the very first line, Xiao Fei was completely absorbed in the ambiance of the song.

There was no helping it; the lyrics were simply too beautiful, and the melody very catchy.

When it got to the chorus, she suddenly realized something: it seemed like the song was sung by Zhang Jingdong himself!

Thinking back, that unrestrained voice from before seemed to be his too, just that the previous song was too fast-paced to make out clearly.

Confirming this, Xiao Fei fell into deep thought: If this song was bought, the other party would definitely have prepared the sheet music and found a professional singer to record a demo.

But now, Zhang Jingdong just brought out a recorder, and there was no sheet music...

At this thought, a daring idea suddenly popped into Xiao Fei’s mind: Could these two songs be his own creations?

After all, he is a master of instruments, and he had also mentioned that he occasionally writes songs.

Xiao Fei looked at Zhang Jingdong unconsciously with amazement.

At that moment, the song in the recorder ended.

Xiao Fei immediately clapped her hands, "This song is really beautiful, I like it a lot!"

Zhang Jingdong was not surprised, considering that in his past life, his favorite song by Mao Buyi was this ’A Journey Through Mountains.’

He also knew that Xiao Fei currently preferred this kind of romantic and aesthetically pleasing tune.

The reason he first let her listen to ’The Princess’ was to get her used to a changing style, while this ’A Journey Through Mountains’ was meant as a reward for accepting the former.

Because he knew if he had let Xiao Fei listen to ’A Journey Through Mountains’ first, she would probably not have accepted ’The Princess.’

Just as Zhang Jingdong was about to speak, Xiao Fei suddenly continued, "Zhang Jingdong, these two songs aren’t ones you bought, but ones you wrote yourself, right?"

Zhang Jingdong had no intention of hiding it from her, knowing that to make her a real queen in the future, he’d at least have to write her a few dozen songs, so it was bound to be discovered sooner or later.

So, he shrugged, "Alright, since you’ve figured it out, I admit it, both songs are indeed written by me."

Xiao Fei first looked impressed, "You’re really amazing! I can’t believe that not only are you skilled with instruments, but you can also write such incredible songs!"

"I used to write songs myself and thought they were not bad, but now comparing mine to yours, they are worlds apart!"

Then, her admiration suddenly turned sentimental, "I knew you weren’t just ignoring me, not caring about me, you’ve actually been caring about me all along, preparing everything for me."

"These two beautiful songs must have taken a lot of your time and effort, I’m really touched, Jingdong, I knew you..."

Seeing that she was about to hug him and almost starting to cry, Zhang Jingdong hurriedly said, "Sorry, you’re thinking too much, I actually wrote these two songs in less than an hour!"

Xiao Fei was momentarily baffled, "How... how is that possible? The lyrics, melodies, and styles of these two songs are completely different, how could you possibly have done them in less than an hour?"
