844: I Don't Sing Well

I Don't Sing Well

After sending Mu Qiaona away, Xia Xibei stayed in the room to create when the door rang.2

It was Gu Lan.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Lan nervously pushed up her glasses, her long bangs covering her face. 

"I- I heard that the company is collecting songs, right?"

"Yes," Xia Xibei nodded. "Everyone knows that." 

She understood what Gu Lan meant, asking, "You want to give it a try too?"

"Can- Can I?" 

Gu Lan was nervous.

"Of course you can!" Xia Xibei smiled brightly. "You are also in the company, so of course you can."

"Then... Can you please take a look at it? I- I know this is a big request..."

"Yes," Xia Xibei nodded. "But I have to say that I am not very good.I can't guarantee anything!"

"No problem, no problem!" Gu Lan was surprised. "I trust you!"

"Okay then, give me the song. I'll check it out."

Gu Lan walked in nervously and handed over the paper in her hand.

Xia Xibei took and looked at it. 

"It's quite good!"

"Really?" Gu Lan was surprised. "Is it really okay?"

"Of course!" Xia Xibei smiled very sincerely. "I didn't expect you to be this good!"

"I'm just writing randomly," Gu Lan bowed her head shyly.

"If this is just your random writing, then if you get serious, others will have no way to live," Xia Xibei joked.

Gu Lan became even more shy, "Please- Please don't laugh at me. I know what level I am at."

"I'm really not laughing at you," Xia Xibei said with a serious expression. "This song is really much better than the ones others come up with!"

Gu Lan's face got redder and her head got lower.

"You can turn this song in and you'll definitely get an answer when the 

time comes."

"I- I want to give this song to you."

"Give it to me?" Xia Xibei raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Why would you want to give it to me?"

"I- I can write songs, but I don't sing well!" Gu Lan bowed her head.

"You can't sing well?" Xia Xibei frowned. "No way. don't be so unsure of yourself. You must be very good at singing."

"I really can't sing well!" Gu Lan shook her head frantically. "Actually, I just want my songs to be sung, but not necessarily by myself."

"Oh, is that right?"

"Yes!" She nodded repeatedly. "You've been so kind to me, but I have nothing to repay you with. So this song is the only gift I can give!"

She looked at Xia Xibei pathetically, "You… You won't mind my bad writing, right?"

"How could I?" Xia Xibei shook her head and smiled. "Well then, since you said so, I will accept it. I'll pay you-"

"No need!" Gu Lan immediately shook her head, "This is my gift to you. How can I ask for money?! Never mind money, you don't even need to write my name."

"You don't even need to write your name?"

"No, I don't want the authorship. This song belongs to you completely!"

Xia Xibei lowered her eyes and thought about it, then finally nodded, "Okay then! Thank you!"

"You're welcome!" Gu Lan immediately smiled brightly.

As the two of them were talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Sister Bei, Mr. Li is looking for you," a head poked in.

"Okay, I'm coming."

Xia Xibei immediately stood up and placed several copies of the lyrics on the table.

"Sister Bei, you go over first. I'll help you clean up!" Gu Lan said right away.

"Good, then I'll go over first. Sorry to trouble you." Xia Xibei smiled and strode out.
