Chapter 64: Monolingual Promotion of Yuna's Song

After having lunch at a restaurant outside, the two of them finally headed home.

The car slowly drove into the underground parking garage.

Unbuckling their seatbelts, they stepped out of the vehicle.

Yi Yunxue took hold of Chen Jiang’s hand and walked toward the elevator.

"Walk slower, why are you in such a rush?" Chen Jiang asked, amused yet exasperated.

"The automatic feeder seems to be broken, and Little Orange hasn't eaten yet," Yi Yunxue explained.

"Take your time, it'll only take a moment, Little Orange won't starve," Chen Jiang said.

"Ouch!" Yi Yunxue suddenly stumbled, but fortunately, Chen Jiang had quick reflexes and firmly caught her.

"I told you not to walk so fast," Chen Jiang nagged gently.

"Wuwu, Chen Jiang, I think I sprained my ankle," Yi Yunxue said with a pitiful look.

"I'll carry you on my back," Chen Jiang offered.

"Wuwu, I didn't sprain my ankle while mountain climbing, but I managed to sprain it coming home. Unbelievable!" Yi Yunxue muttered in frustration.

Chen Jiang hoisted her onto his back and walked toward the elevator.

Clinging to Chen Jiang's neck, Yi Yunxue said with mild surprise, "So this is what your perspective looks like when you walk normally..."

Feeling the soft, full sensation pressed against his back, Chen Jiang’s body instantly stiffened.

"Why did you stop?" Yi Yunxue asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing." Chen Jiang paused for a second and resumed walking forward.

They got into the elevator.

Upon arriving at Yi Yunxue's apartment, the moment they stepped inside, Little Orange began meowing loudly from inside its cage.

Chen Jiang completely ignored the cat and asked Yi Yunxue, "Where do you keep your medicine?"

Yi Yunxue pointed toward a cabinet.

Chen Jiang helped her over to the sofa, rummaged through the medical kit, and finally pulled out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao spray.

"Spray it. If it still hurts this much tomorrow, we'll go see a doctor," he said.

"Let's just order takeout for dinner tonight."

"Okay." Yi Yunxue nodded, looking a bit preoccupied.

"I hope it gets better by tomorrow. Sister Dan has a recording session tomorrow afternoon, and I need to be there."

"Don't worry, I'll go with you tomorrow. Since it's Diva Dan's first song released under our company, I have to supervise in person," Chen Jiang said with a smile.

Of course, he was just joking. Shan Yuna herself was immensely talented; there was no way she needed anyone else's guidance.

When Chen Jiang first gave her the song, she had immediately figured out the vocal style that suited it best.

One could only say she truly lived up to her status as a diva—not to be underestimated.

"Meow～!" At that moment, Little Orange's meow rang out once more.

Only then did Chen Jiang remember it hadn't been fed yet, so he quickly went over to refill its bowl.

"How on earth did this automatic feeder break?" he wondered aloud, feeling somewhat perplexed.

"I don't know. I've already ordered a new one online with same-city delivery, it should arrive soon," Yi Yunxue replied.

The next morning, upon waking up, Yi Yunxue's ankle still hadn't healed.

Fortunately, it was much better than the day before.

Since Shan Yuna was recording in the afternoon, Chen Jiang ended up supporting her all the way to the company.

"President Yi, you still came even with an injured foot..." Shan Yuna said, looking flattered and a bit surprised.

"It's Sister Dan's first recording session, so I definitely had to come and accompany you," Yi Yunxue said with a smile.

"Director Chen, you must be President Yi's other half, right?" Shan Yuna asked with a gossipy smile.

"It's me. Isn't it obvious?" Chen Jiang gently pulled Yi Yunxue's petite hand into his and smiled.

"You and President Yi are truly a match made in heaven, a handsome man and a beautiful woman!" Shan Yuna said with a warm smile.

"Thank you, Sister Dan," Yi Yunxue said, her eyes curving into happy crescents.

Shan Yuna recorded the song three times before nailing a version she was entirely satisfied with.

After finishing, she treated Chen Jiang and Yi Yunxue to lunch.

"Miss Shan, when are you planning to release this song?" Chen Jiang asked out of curiosity during the meal.

"Sometime in June, I suppose. I won't crowd May; I heard quite a few singers are releasing songs then," Shan Yuna said.

It was clear that Shan Yuna was being very cautious about this release.

After lunch, Chen Jiang accompanied Yi Yunxue back home.

The company had nothing pressing going on these couple of days.

The afternoon stretched out leisurely before them.

The two of them sat together on the sofa in Chen Jiang's apartment and put on a movie.

It was a youth romance film about a pair of childhood sweethearts who grew up together, only to be separated when the female lead moved away.

Years later, they happened to meet again in university and fell in love...

Watching it, Yi Yunxue wore an expression of intense longing. "I'm so envious of this kind of childhood romance!"

"If only I had gotten to know you earlier and hadn't missed out on so many years of your life," she murmured.

Chen Jiang smiled. "It's not too late for us now."

"This is all thanks to Little Orange. We should give it some extra treats these next few days."

Just then, the plot of the movie finally reached the turning point where the main characters confirmed their relationship.

The two of them ate meals together on campus and took walks, occasionally running into their respective roommates who would tease them, prompting shy blushes from the heroine.

Just as Yi Yunxue was watching with rapt attention, the tone of the film suddenly shifted drastically.

While drinking water, the male lead abruptly clutched his lower abdomen, his face contorted in agony.

It left her completely stunned.

The scene cut to a hospital, where the male lead accepted a medical report from a doctor in a white lab coat.

"You don't have much time left."

The silent shot of the male lead lasted for more than ten seconds...

Following that, the male lead deliberately manufactured conflicts to break up with the female lead... and it wasn't until the very grand finale that the female lead learned the truth from his roommate and managed to catch his final moments.

"Ahhh, Chen Jiang, what kind of monster writes a script like this?! It was so sweet in the beginning!" Yi Yunxue fumed with indignation.

"It has such high ratings too! Why on earth would they pull a plot twist like this?!"

Chen Jiang was torn between laughter and tears. "I suppose this is what they call art..."

He checked the reviews for the movie.

The positive approval rating was a staggering 90%!

[This movie is amazing, I refuse to be the only one whose heart gets broken after being fed sweetness!]

[So sweet, I strongly recommend everyone to go watch it!]

Since Yi Yunxue had chosen the movie, Chen Jiang pretty much understood why the rating was so high.

These netizens were truly heartless!

"Let's switch to a comedy, no heartbreak guaranteed," Chen Jiang suggested.

"Okay!"

The two of them switched to a high-scoring comedy film instead.

Time slipped away unnoticed just like that...

...

At the end of May.

Throughout the month, several first-tier artists, heavenly kings, and divas of the entertainment industry had fiercely competed with one another.

It could truly be described as a clash of titans. In the end, Diva Liu from Skystar Entertainment successfully claimed the number one spot on the new song charts.

Her new track even surged rapidly up the popular song chart, climbing all the way to third place.

At this point, the second place belonged to Yi Yunxue's "The Wind Rises," while the first place was held by that song titled "The Last Page."

"Meeting" had dropped to fourth.

That "The Last Page" managed to top the charts came as quite a surprise to Chen Jiang.

He had originally thought the song wouldn't be able to surpass "The Wind Rises" and "Courage."

Now it seemed he had underestimated it after all. One could only say it lived up to being a work "suspected" to have been written by Jay Chou's secret alter ego.

The track had generated massive traffic on short-video platforms, which was likely why it successfully clinched the top spot.

Recently, short-video platforms had spawned a very famous meme known as "Take Care, Prime Minister," much like the internet trends of his past Earth.

Blue Star also had the television series adaptation of *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*, and the plot was largely similar to his previous world.

Netizens had a sudden flash of inspiration and paired this song with edited clips of Liu Bei entrusting his orphan to Zhuge Liang, accompanied by Zhuge Liang's monologue.

To everyone's surprise, it went viral overnight, and the song naturally became the designated background music for *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*.

This brought massive exposure and traffic to both parties involved.

As May drew to a close, Shan Yuna dropped a bombshell announcement on her official Weibo account:

[My new song "Red Beans" will be officially released on all major music platforms at midnight sharp on June 1st. Please look forward to it! Thank you to @DreamRisingCultureCo.,Ltd. for taking such good care of me during this time!]

Attached to the post was a short MV teaser.

As soon as the post went live, netizens immediately erupted into heated discussions:

[Holy crap, this Dream Rising Culture is really making a name for itself lately! Another singer dropping a new track!]

[Isn't it Dream Rising Studio? When did they change their name?]

[They changed it a while ago. It makes sense though, their company scale was already that of a limited liability corporation anyway.]
