Chapter 174 – Falling off the horse

Cen Shu’s reaction didn’t surprise Pei Ran. Two days later, he called Shen Huai and said he would join the crew.

At this point, the prototype of the Pei Ran crew has been initially established.

Shen Huai finished his work and was finally able to go home. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ye Cang writing a song. He was wearing headphones and looked very attentive.

Shen Huai didn’t want to disturb him, so he slowed his movement and prepared to go upstairs to change clothes first.

However, Ye Cang seemed to sense him and looked up in his direction and then smiled with some surprise: “You’re back”

Shen Huai smiled, put down the things in his hands and greeted him with a hug.

Ye Cang’s arm directly hugged his waist and pressed hard into his arms, which almost made Shen Huai gasp.

Shen Huai raised his hand and poked his arm and chest, and Ye Cang immediately became proud to show him “How do you like my results in this period of time?”

Shen Huai was too lazy to act naive with him. He sat on the sofa and picked up his music score “This is the song for the new album”

Hearing about his new album, Ye Cang immediately forgot to show off his muscles and sat next to him. “Yes, I’ve written more than ten songs, but only seven or eight are suitable. I’m going to write a few more.”

Shen Huai looked at the music score carefully. He was not as proficient in music as Ye Cang, but he also understood a little. After reading only for a short period, he found out the main problem.

“This style is different from your previous style.”

Ye Cang nodded, “Yes, I intend to try more possibilities for this album, which can be regarded as challenging myself.”

Ye Cang said, simply pulling the guitar from the side, and playing and singing the section to Shen Huai. Although it was only a very simple and rough section, Shen Huai was pleasantly surprised.

While singing, Ye Cang looked at Shen Huai’s expression and unconsciously smiled. He only wanted to play a short part, but when he saw that Shen Huai liked listening, he sang the whole song. In this process, he gained new inspiration, so he put down the guitar and took a pen to change the score.

Shen Huai didn’t disturb him, but just sat quietly watching.

Ye Cang became more and more excited, and more than an hour passed by carelessly. When he returned to his mind, Shen Huai still sat beside him supporting his chin with hand and looking at him.

Ye Cang scratched his head and was a little embarrassed because he unconsciously ignored him. “”I get a little carried away when I write a song.”

Shen Huai smiled and shook his head. “It doesn’t matter, that’s why I like you.”

Ye Cang’s eyes suddenly brightened and he leaned over to kiss him. After a while, both of them were out of breath.

Ye Cang seemed to have some unfinished business and Shen Huai knew that as soon as they start they will not be finished soon. Thinking that he had something to do the next day, he could only change the topic and refuse him.

Ye Cang held him for a while before showing him the song he had written.

At first, Shen Huai thought that Ye Cang ‘Trying more possibilities” referred to that song alone. Unexpectedly, the style of the whole album has changed greatly, which made him become a little hesitant.

“Although I think all these songs are good, they are far from the style of your first album. When they are released, I’m afraid.”

He didn’t finish, but Ye Cang understood his unfinished words.

Since the last album was released, he has been urged to for a second album on the Internet. However, Ye Cang seemed to be out of character, but his respect for music was incomparable to others. The reason why he finished the last album so fast was because of the accumulation of the previous 30 years. Obviously, this album couldn’t be made at this speed. Although he has been writing continuously, he was extremely strict with himself, and there weren’t many songs that could pass his own set standards.

Gradually, the comments on the Internet changed. It was said that he was at his wit’s end and couldn’t write any good songs. There was even a rumor that the songs from his “Rebirth” album were written by others, making Ye Cang unable to laugh or cry.

Later, he went to “National Idol” as a judge and mentor, making this kind of speech almost reach its peak.

Ye Chang has experienced a lot and didn’t pay attention to these remarks. He could see clearly that his first album was too high. So no matter what he makes now, he would get complaints from the outside world.

So he doesn’t want to take the safe way, but decided to take on a bigger challenge.

Shen Huai listened to Ye Cang’s anti bone words, sighed helplessly, but then laughed again; “You are challenging the bottom line of the audience.”

Ye Cang raised his eyebrow: “ So what? Who says I can only write songs in one style? New life was not easy to get, so if it is exactly the same as that of my previous life, then what was the rebirth for?

For Ye Cang, the last album was a summary of his last life, but this one represented his new life he was heading for.

He paid more attention to this album than to his last one. What he wanted to see was his own creativity. As for the expectations and disappointments of others, it may have some impact, but it will never shake his mind.
