Chapter 14


    The moment the music started ying, the two people froze simultaneously.


    After the song ended, they remained motionless for a long time, silent.


    Liu Yuanyuan was the first to react, running out of the office to call her best friend.


    Due to shaky hands, she misdialed several times, unable to connect for a long time. Just as she was about to give up in frustration, her best friend called.


    As soon as the call connected, they both spoke at the same time:


    "Did you hear ''Peace of Mind''?"


    "Did you hear ''Peace of Mind''?"


    They had coincidentally asked the same question, stunning each other for a moment before bursting intoughter, which eventually turned to tears.


    "Our teacher Ji is back."


    "She has found the heavenly sound in her heart."


    Inside the office, Zhang Miaoman was sneaking around. Seeing that Liu Yuanyuan was gone, she listened to ''Peace of Mind'' again, weeping as she listened.


    Wah, wah, wah, how could she continue to badmouth the singer after hearing such a beautiful voice!


    No, she had to persevere, she must not be tempted.


    Zhang Miaoman decided to listen a few more times, no matter how good the song was, she would get sick of it if she heard it enough.


    And so, Zhang Miaoman listened with her headphones on for the entire afternoon.


    By the time she got off work in the evening, she had sessfully be a fan of the singer ''Jia He''.


    Dammit, this song was too good, the more she listened, the more she was entranced. She had gone from hating to loving it.


    Zhang Miaoman began searching for information about this song.


    She discovered that the lyrics,position, and vocals were all by a neer named Jia He, while the arrangement and production were by Ji Ying.


    Who was Jia He, and what did she look like?


    No matter how much Zhang Miaoman searched online, she couldn''t find any information about Jia He, as if she had appeared out of thin air. With no other choice, she left ament on Ji Ying''s Weibo:


    "Teacher Ji, who is Jia He? Do you have any photos of her?"


    Within a day, the name Jia He had be famous across the country.


    Seeing this, Ji Ying quickly created a Weibo ount for Jia He, which gained a million followers immediately after its creation.


    This speed was rarely seen in the entire entertainment industry.


    ''Peace of Mind'' spread incredibly quickly, bing a global hit that everyone was humming within a week.


    The melody was gentle, and the lyrics were catchy, allowing anyone to hum a few lines. However, whenpared to the original vocals, they fell short.


    Many talented inte celebrities tried to cover the song, but they allcked a certain vor, unable to match the same soul-stirring impact.


    Riding on the tailwind of ''Peace of Mind'', the stock of Zhan''s Music Company rose significantly, much to the delight of the general manager, who went to bed every night with a smirk on his face.


    "Teacher Ji, Master Ji!"


    This time, when facing Ji Ying, the general manager''s attitude changed drastically, abandoning his former coldness and impatience for utter obsequiousness.


    "I misjudged you. A master is a master; given enough time, you''re bound to regain your former glory. By the way, Teacher Ji, who exactly is this Jia He? Is she Third Miss Zhan?"


    "No, she''s a friend of Third Miss Zhan. Jia He doesn''t want to reveal her true identity for now," Ji Ying replied.


    The general manager nodded and continued, "Does Miss Jia He have any interest in signing with Zhan''s Music? Rest assured, the terms will be very generous."


    Ji Ying hesitated for a moment before saying, "I''ll have to ask her. Jia He isn''t short on money; she sings purely out of love for it."


    "Alright, please ask on my behalf then."


    The general manager''s attitude was excellent.


    Far away abroad, Zhan Yi heard ''Peace of Mind'' on the third day of its release, immediately stunned by its beauty.


    Wah, wah, wah, this song was too good, impossibly good!


    Zhan Yi treasured the song, sharing ''Peace of Mind'' with his master, Zhan Lingfeng.


    Zhan Lingfeng had been very busytely, his brow furrowed with deep fatigue. Seeing his assistant approach excitedly, he thought there was some urgent business with an acquisition and asked, "What is it?"


    "Master Zhan, I have something great to show you."


    Something great?


    Zhan Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, focusing his attention, only to see Zhan Yi share a song through WeChat.


    Zhan Lingfeng: "..."


    Was it toote to fire this idiot assistant?


    "Master Zhan, listen to it. This song is so good, incredibly good. I''m addicted after just one listen; I can''t stop listening to it."


    That didn''t sound like something good. And it could be addictive?


    Zhan Lingfeng pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling like he had been too busytely, overworking Zhan Yi to the point of madness.


    He waved his hand, indicating for Zhan Yi to leave quickly.


    Zhan Yi was an assistant raised by the Zhan family to serve him since childhood. Didn''t he know that Zhan Lingfeng had never listened to music?


    Although Zhan Yi really wanted Master Zhan to listen to the song, he knew his master''s temper and didn''t dare say anything more, leaving with a pitiful expression, hoping that Master Zhan would ept his rmendation.


    Shortly after Zhan Yi left, another assistant, Zhan Liang, rushed in excitedly: "Master Zhan, I have something great for you to see."


    Zhan Lingfeng didn''t look up: "Speak."


    "This song, Master Zhan, you have to listen to it. It''s so good, incredibly good. I''m addicted after just one listen; I can''t stop listening to it."


    Zhan Lingfeng felt like he had heard those exact words before.


    He put down the documents, picked up his phone, and opened Zhan Liang''s WeChat, only to find that he had shared the same song as Zhan Yi.


    Zhan Lingfeng pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling like they had all gone mad.


    "Get out," Zhan Lingfeng said coldly.


    Not long after Zhan Liang left, Zhan Shan rushed in: "Master Zhan, I have something great for you to see!"


    Even for the calm andposed Zhan Lingfeng, hearing that sentence made his expression crack. "Are you going to share a ''really good'' song with me as well?"


    "Master Zhan, you''ve heard ''Peace of Mind'' too?" Zhan Shan asked excitedly.


    Zhan Lingfeng didn''t have the patience to talk to this fool and simply waved him away.


    Finally, the room fell silent. After Zhan Lingfeng finished all the documents, left with nothing to do, he remembered his assistants'' rmendations and, on a whim, opened the music app.


    And then... he became entranced.


    Zhan Lingfeng had always found songs noisy; he didn''t dislike music, enjoying ssical music and operas, but he had no interest in pop music, finding it too vulgar.


    However, this song ''Peace of Mind'' gave him a different feeling, like a gentle stream or an April breeze, able to soothe his heart and smooth out his worries.


    Before he knew it, Zhan Lingfeng had fallen asleep.


    He suffered from severe insomnia, drinking too much coffee and working too hard, always keeping his brain running at high speed. For him, sleep had be a luxury.


    But at this moment, he had effortlessly drifted off to sleep.


    An hourter, Zhan Lingfeng awoke.


    Opening his eyes, he felt his body was extremelyfortable, and his spirit was extraordinarily replenished. Just an hour of sleep, yet it was more refreshing than sleeping through the night.


    Zhan Lingfeng was greatly astonished.


    This song seemed to possess a special kind of magic power.


    Zhan Lingfeng immediately got up and called Zhan Yi over, instructing him to investigate Jia He, and if possible, to obtain her contact information.
