Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


Ning Li was lying on her bed when she saw the message that He Xiaochen had sent two hours ago.


[ Ning Li! My brother’s new alb.u.m has been released! Hurry up and listen to it! It’s so good! ]


Ning Li clicked on the Joyful Listening app.


This was the most popular music app at the moment. Lin Fengmian’s new alb.u.m had been officially released on June 26th, which was today, at 8 pm.


As soon as she clicked on it, she saw the cover of Lin Fengmian’s alb.u.m.


It was also the cover of his new alb.u.m.


The young man was wearing a torn black suit. He was standing sideways and raised his head slightly. The side of his face was perfect and exquisite.


His eyes were closed and his figure was thin. His short hair was messy, with a few streaks of blue. There was a small cross-shaped diamond earring on his left ear.


There was a tear mole at the end of his eye, giving him a pure yet seductive look.


A black ribbon had been wrapped around his slender white neck. It seemed to bind him tightly, but it also gave off a sense of abstinence and vulnerability.


Silver words hung above his head.


Faith.


–Faith.


His clothes were tattered and he was trapped in a cage.


However, in this darkness, he held his head high and closed his eyes. He prayed devoutly and struggled to look forward to the light, waiting for salvation.


There were a total of ten songs in this alb.u.m, and the song with the same name, Faith, was the t.i.tle track.


At the moment, the alb.u.m had only been online for less than two hours, yet it had already rushed to the top of the new song chart, and its popularity had soared crazily.


That song had a little dark element, and the whole song was depressed and low, almost suffocating.


However, at the end of the song, it turned into a slow and melodious cello solo, and the youth’s clean voice sang softly, as if all the pain and nightmares had been soothed.


The music gradually faded away, like a dream, and finally fell into a deep sleep.


In a short period of time, the number of comments had exceeded 100,000.


[ Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Little Brother is awesome! ]


[ It’s so good! I want to play it on an endless loop! ]


[ I heard that all the lyrics and songs for this alb.u.m had personally been written by Little Brother! At first, I was a little worried that because the alb.u.m would be released in such a short period of time, the quality of the songs might not be as good as the previous single. But in the end… I was completely overthinking it! I’m crying tears of excitement! ]


[ “I really cried listening to my brother’s ‘Faith’. What kind of experience did he have to go through to write such a song?” ]


[ “Ditto, I cried listening to it too!” ]


[ “Upstairs + phone number!” ]



Lin Fengmian had always been popular. Now that this alb.u.m had been released, it demonstrated an extremely high level of music standards, and it immediately crushed all the major music charts.


Ning Li scrolled through Weibo a few times and saw that, as expected, three of the top five trending topics had been dominated by Lin Fengmian and his alb.u.m.


The fans were overjoyed, and many pa.s.sers-by were also attracted. The topic square was almost filled with praise.


Many people had previously thought that Lin Fengmian was just like a pretty vase that had become popular because of his face, but in reality, he did not have much strength.


However, when this alb.u.m was released, it quickly slapped them in the face.


It contained ten songs, all of which were of high quality.


The popularity and depth of the songs were both high, and the styles of the songs were also varied.


With this alb.u.m alone, he could directly leave the other popular idols far behind eating his dust.


She sent a message to Lin Fengmian.


[ Nice. ]



Haicheng, Huayi Entertainment headquarters.


It was late at night. In the conference room on the seventh floor of the building, everyone was sitting around.


Computers were placed in front of each of them, and their eyes and hands were constantly switching between computers and phones.


From time to time, joyful and excited voices could be heard.


“The online sales of the new alb.u.m have broken a million! It’s a new record!”


“Six of the top 10 trending entries are related to us!”


“Faith has already occupied 16 music charts, including the Chinese Golden Songs chart and the Fenghua Hot Songs chart! The last person to be able to be ranked first on both charts was Su Liu from five years ago!”


These two charts were extremely valuable. For an average singer to be able to enter one of the Top 10 was already an achievement that was worth celebrating.


Su Liu was now a heavenly king in the music industry. Lin Fengmian’s new ability to achieve the same results as him was enough to prove his strength.


Wu Yuanfan looked at the pile of data.


Even though he knew about Lin Fengmian’s popularity, the popularity of this alb.u.m had exceeded their expectations.


As Lin Fengmian’s manager, he had been really busy these past few days.


But at the same time, he was feeling more excited and happy.


He had been in this industry for twenty years, and the artists he had managed before had basically not been very popular.


The best one had been a second-rate actor.


Lin Fengmian was the first top-notch artiste under him.


He could not help but raise his head to look at the youth who was sitting in the corner of the meeting room.


He was wearing a loose black short-sleeved s.h.i.+rt and loose sports pants of the same color. He wore a baseball cap very low on his head, and only the high bridge of his nose and a touch of dark red lips could be seen.


Compared to the other people here, he seemed to be too quiet.


“Fengmian.”


The excitement in Wu Yuanfan’s voice was almost impossible to hide.


“Your alb.u.m has completely gone viral!”


Lin Fengmian was lounging on a single-seater sofa, looking at his phone.


Hearing this, he raised his head and looked over, not looking particularly interested.


His exquisite eyebrows had been pressed down by the fine strands of his fringe and baseball cap, so his eyes could not be seen clearly.


He replied faintly and looked back down at his phone.


There was still no reply.


He felt a little anxious.


Actually, he had already sent the demo for her to listen to before, but today at eight o’clock, after the alb.u.m had officially been released, he still solemnly sent the audio of all ten songs to her.


However, there had been no news from her end.


It was her birthday today, so she was probably busy…


That was what he thought to himself, but he could not bear to leave the dialog box.


When Wu Yuanfan saw his reaction, he clicked his tongue.


Lin Fengmian was different from all the other artistes he had taken on before.


He was only seventeen years old. Logically speaking, he should be young and very proud.


However, Lin Fengmian was not.


Most of the time, he was very quiet and rarely spoke. Apart from attending to work, he spent most of his remaining time writing songs or practicing his dance moves.


If it were anyone else at his age, they would have been completely caught up with their popularity.


However, Lin Fengmian had a calmness that did not match his age.


Or, it could be said that he did not seem to care about whether he was famous or not.


He loved the stage, but that was all.


Everyone was exclaiming at how easily he had ignited the huge amount of traffic on the search engines, and applauding his ability to win all the charts effortlessly just by releasing his first alb.u.m.


Only he, who was at the center of the vortex, remained the calmest.


Just then, a message came from Lin Fengmian’s phone.


[ Nice. ]


A staff member beside him could not hide his excitement as he shouted at Lin Fengmian.


“Fengmian, ‘Faith’ has sold more than 1.5 million copies! Everyone says it’s nice!”


Wu Yuanfan shrugged his shoulders, thinking that Lin Fengmian probably would not care about this.


However, when he unintentionally looked up, he saw the youth sitting in the corner, his pursed lips finally raised into a faint arc.


“Oh, is that so?”
