Chapter 439 My wife understands me best.
The night is deep.
The balcony was completely silent.
Yu Huan slumped in the chair, idly scrolling through the mouse while rubbing his chin with his other hand.
At this moment, the computer screen emitted a cold, white glow, displaying the QQ email interface.
His entire attention was focused on this email—sent today by Zhang Yue, the director of the "Day Day Up" program.
When he saw the list of guests on the show, his eyes were filled with surprise.
The lineup is incredibly strong?
"Zhao Zhongxiang? Ni Ping?" Yu Huan murmured softly.
These two are household names.
Before his private life was exposed, Zhao Zhongxiang was undoubtedly the top anchor of CCTV.
Ni Ping's position in the entertainment industry is unshakeable.
She started as a host, taking the lead on the Spring Festival Gala stage for many consecutive years, and for a considerable period of time, she was hailed as CCTV's top female host.
Later, she switched to acting and became very successful, winning numerous awards.
It can be said to be a true double success.
Yu Huan clicked her tongue and thought to herself: With these two, the program is already interesting enough. What was Wang Han thinking when he moved himself to this episode?
After all, they're not even in the same league.
Yu Huan was lost in thought when her phone started buzzing, the sudden ringtone breaking the tranquility of the balcony.
He subconsciously tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the phone on the side of the mousepad, where the word 'wife' on the caller ID stood out prominently.
Yu Huan quickly sat up straight and reached for her phone.
Noticing that it was already eleven o'clock, he wondered to himself: "The show should be finished recording by now, right?"
He swiped his finger to answer the call and said softly, "Hello, honey, are you off work yet?"
The voice just fell.
Lin Yourong's gentle voice immediately came through the receiver: "We're almost home, but we're planning to go get some late-night snacks at the Haidilao hot pot restaurant next to the mall. Do you want to come?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Huan patted her empty stomach and readily agreed, "Come on! I'll set off right away. I've been sitting here all night, so I'll go out for some fresh air and a walk. You guys eat first, don't wait for me."
"Good~"
Yu Huan hung up the phone, quickly tidied herself up, and hurried downstairs.
The cool breeze tonight gently brushed against his cheeks, instantly clearing his mind, which had become muddled from sitting for so long.
He wrapped his coat tighter around himself and quickened his pace as he walked out of the residential area.
As I walked, the tension in my muscles and bones eased, and I felt much more relaxed.
Before long, Yu Huan appeared at the entrance of Haidilao.
He had just taken his phone out of his pocket when he glanced at the room number Lin Yourong had sent him.
Seven or eight meters away, the sharp-eyed greeter, as if spotting some rare guest, came over with extra enthusiasm, her face beaming with a bright smile, her warmth almost melting people's hearts.
Haidilao's service is indeed a bit overly enthusiastic.
Yu Huan declined her offer to lead the way, leaving with a smile in his eyes, saying, "Thank you, I know the room number, I can go there myself." With that, he walked straight into the inner room without stopping.
Upon arriving at the private room, Yu Huan gently pushed open the door.
In an instant, a rich and mellow aroma of hot pot wafted over.
The small private room was filled with laughter and chatter. Sister Ru and Xing Yujia were both holding long chopsticks and chatting enthusiastically.
As Sister Ru looked up, her gaze met that of Yu Huan as she entered the room.
Her face immediately lit up with an even brighter smile, and she said jokingly, "Oh, Mr. Y, you've finally arrived! We were just saying we thought you'd gotten lost on the way."
Yu Huan gently closed the door behind her and strolled leisurely toward the dining table.
What comes into view is a table already filled with all sorts of dishes.
The clear broth in the hot pot bubbled and simmered, with wisps of steam rising gently.
Some of the beef slices must have been cooked recently, floating on the surface of the soup. They were pink and looked half-cooked, yet they were still incredibly tender and tempting.
Yu Huan smiled and said, "I walked here. I was a little sleepy at first, but the breeze made me feel refreshed."
Lin Yourong was holding long chopsticks and putting goose intestines into the pot. Hearing the sound, she turned her head to look at Yu Huan, her almond eyes curving into beautiful crescents.
She nodded slightly and said, "You should walk around more after sitting for so long."
Yu Huan pulled out the chair next to her and sat down with her back to the door.
While taking off his mask, he eagerly asked with a smile, "Honey, how were your grades?"
Lin Yourong had changed into a brown casual down jacket. Her long hair was casually tied back with a rubber band, with a few strands falling on both sides of her face, making her look refreshing and neat.
She put down her chopsticks, and before she could answer, Sister Ru happily chimed in, "Susu signed a confidentiality agreement, and the penalty for breach of contract is a staggering amount. We can't talk about it in public like this. You should eat quickly; Susu specially made a special dipping sauce for you."
His tone was somewhat sarcastic.
Lin Youren couldn't help but smile.
Yu Huan was somewhat surprised to hear this: "What kind of confidentiality agreement does this program have? I'm afraid that when I open my eyes tomorrow morning, the rankings will be all over the internet."
“Darling, I did sign a confidentiality agreement.” Lin Yourong paused, lowered her eyes slightly, then turned to Yu Huan and whispered in his ear.
My ears, which had been stiff from the cool breeze all the way, trembled slightly when I felt the warm breath on them.
Yu Huan listened intently to her soft words, her eyes slightly narrowed.
After she finished speaking, Yu Huan nodded thoughtfully, picked up her chopsticks, and took a slice of beef from the clear soup and put it in her bowl. Meanwhile, Sister Ru, watching the young couple finish their whispered conversation, slowly swallowed the food she had been chewing for a while, and said excitedly...
"Yu Huan, I have some good news for you. Shang Wenjie listened to the demo once and was very satisfied. She signed the contract immediately and kept saying she wanted to treat you to dinner to express her gratitude. The quality of your compositions has always been top-notch. I feel like I'm getting ripped off a bit. It would have been better to just give it to Su Su to sing!"
As he spoke, he patted his chest as if feigning concern, but his face was full of smiles.
Hearing this, Lin Yourong smiled and said, "Sister Ru, please don't think that way. Shang Wenjie appreciates Yu Huan's talent so much, and more people will definitely come to him to ask for songs in the future. This is a great thing."
Yu Huan put the beef into her mouth, and as her teeth lightly touched it, her taste buds were instantly ignited by the slightly numbing and spicy dipping sauce.
The dipping sauce his wife made for him was indeed to his liking.
He chewed the tender beef a few times, swallowed it, and said with a faint smile on his face, "Let's skip the meal. I took this job because she offered generous terms and good pay. It was a cash-on-delivery transaction, and I didn't want any other dealings with her."
talking.
Yu Huan turned slightly to the side, gently taking Lin Yourong's arm, and said earnestly, "Also, Sister Ru, I don't really care whether others recognize my talent or not. To be honest, if it weren't for my wife, I really wouldn't have tried writing songs. In short, my wife is my source of motivation for writing songs!"
"A man's mouth is a lie~"
Lin Yourong said coquettishly, but her eyes were filled with emotion as she put several pieces of beef into his bowl.
Yu Huan laughed and stopped arguing.
Eat beef, eat beef.
Hearing the young couple talking back and forth, Sister Ru couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
She waved her hand gently and said, "I was just saying that casually. The relationship between you two is truly enviable."
Xing Yujia watched from the side, nodding her head like a chicken pecking at rice, and chimed in, "That's right! Sister Ru, look, at this rate, don't you think Huan-ge will monopolize all of Sister Su's new songs and albums in the future?"
Sister Ru raised her hand and patted Xing Yujia's shoulder with a smile: "With Yu Huan's inspiration flowing out like a fountain, it's not impossible that he could create so many good songs so easily."
Yu Huan also became happy. After finishing the beef his wife had put on his plate, he picked up a piece of tripe from the plate next to him.
He skillfully dipped the food in the pot several times, then put it in his mouth and chewed it with satisfaction: "I don't care about fame or fortune. I'm content as long as my wife can sing happily and do what she likes freely."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yourong immediately turned to the side, stretched out her slender fingers, and tugged at Yu Huan's arm.
Yu Huan turned her head to look at her, and met her smiling face. She chuckled.
it is more than words.
Sister Ru sat to the side, watching this scene, and clicked her tongue, feeling that what she was eating was not hot pot at all, but bowl after bowl of dog food.
It was so sweet it was cloying, I could hardly bear to look at it...
Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she asked, "By the way, Yu Huan, I heard you're going to record 'Day Day Up' tomorrow. Besides you, are there any other guests?"
Yu Huan withdrew her arm from Lin Yourong's, sat up slightly, and uttered two names: "Zhao Zhongxiang, Ni Ping."
"Huh?" Sister Ru's face was full of surprise, her mouth agape for a long time. "Then the lineup for this episode is really amazing!"
Yu Huan scratched his head, a half-joking, wry smile on his face, and said self-deprecatingly, "I'm wondering why I was included. I'm just an ordinary internet celebrity. Compared to the two of them, I'm not even in the same league. I feel like I'm just a nobody standing next to them."
Sister Ru's eyes darted around, and she suddenly lowered her voice, saying with a hint of teasing:
"Don't underestimate yourself. When the time comes, if you reveal that you can write and compose songs, and that you have a pen name called 'Mr. Y' which is quite well-known in the industry, plus your identity as Lin Su's husband, and don't forget your title of 'Brother Leader' at the Jiangnan Morning Post, wouldn't that combination of moves create a lot of momentum? Putting aside your status, at least you won't look out of place standing next to someone else."
"Tch!" Yu Huan waved his hand dismissively. "What is all this nonsense?"
Sister Ru's smile deepened as she continued, "But then again, it's a rare opportunity to share the stage with such a big name. Yu Huan, you'd better do your best and don't get stage fright."
Lin Yourong's cheeks twitched slightly as she swallowed the spinach in her mouth and continued, "Sister Ru, you're overthinking it. He's not the type to get stage fright."
Yu Huan seemed to have received tremendous affirmation, and a radiant smile instantly bloomed on her face.
He raised his hand and patted Lin Yourong on the shoulder, laughing heartily: "My wife knows me best."
"I haven't even finished speaking yet, and you're already shameless." Lin Yourong's lips curled up slightly, and she gave him a light glare with her clear black and white eyes, full of coquettishness.
Upon hearing this comment, Sister Ru and Xing Yujia burst into laughter.
Yu Huan scratched the back of his head, feeling that he couldn't refute it, and decided to continue cooking the tripe.
They ate and chatted happily, and before they knew it, it was midnight.
After saying goodbye, the young couple strolled home hand in hand.
A night breeze, carrying a slight chill, gently stirred their hair and the hems of their clothes.
Yu Huan tilted her head slightly, facing the wind, her brows relaxed, and spoke with a contented air:
"Lin Zhixuan is the type who goes all out from the start, aiming for a high ranking. But look at you, you don't seem to care about rankings at all. You chose 'Time Thief,' a song that's not really suitable for a competition, but you just casually sang it and easily got second place—that's already quite impressive. Next, I'll have to put some thought into finding an old song that showcases your talent, carefully rearrange it, and I guarantee it'll amaze the entire audience!"
Lin Yourong followed Yu Huan's pace with light steps, neither too fast nor too slow.
She tilted her head slightly, her clear black and white eyes looking at Yu Huan through the brim of her hat and mask, and said softly, "You trust me that much? Actually, I was a little nervous on stage, and I feel like I didn't perform very well this time."
Yu Huan squeezed the soft little hand in her palm and said with a smile, "It's not about pursuing perfection. In my heart, you will always be the best. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Lin Yourong smiled gently and then said, "Sister Ru said that several brands are interested in collaborating with me, but we still need to see the specifics. They need to fit my image and development direction, and we'll select a few suitable ones."
"That's great, the wife earns money and the husband spends it." Yu Huan clicked his tongue in delight.
Lin Yourong chuckled, pulled her hand out of his grasp, and gave his butt a hard pinch.
Yu Huan pretended to be in pain, hissed, jumped back a step, and shouted, "Ouch! Murdering your husband! You're really ruthless, especially in the middle of the night!"
It was early morning on a winter night, and there was no one around.
Lin Yourong remained calm, snorted, and took his arm, saying, "However, during the announcement, I was standing at the stage entrance when I suddenly heard a girl in the audience shouting at the top of her lungs—'Lin Su, the wind is picking up!'"
Towards the end of her story, Lin Yourong deliberately used a high-pitched voice to imitate the speaker.
After listening to her vivid description, Yu Huan chuckled and nodded gently.
"Yeah, if this song could have been released earlier, with your singing skills, it would definitely have been number one."
